Thad Tietso. barber in Councilman

llght not a little of lots on account of
his unexpected fortune from the old
country, gas rebates and other inci-
dents. has Ponce deleon's Fountain

Tietao brings back life after it has
left by his process, on which he has
not yet secured a. patent. The best

youth.

Have Tletse show you how he brings
back life after it. has fled. This morn-
ing he gave a private demonstration
for the scientists of Washington street.
and the test was a complete success.

The experiment was on a fly. Tietze
took a lively specimen. submerged it
into water until the entire audience
agreed that it. surely was drowned and
dead as a fly could be. Then be pro-
duced his life restoring compound. The
fly, still motionless. was (‘UW'I't‘tI over
with the compound.

“In two minutes." convincingly dot
clared Tlctze, “it will snow signs of life
and presently it will be as lively as
it ever was." in less than that time.
it was partially uncovered and true to
the word of the conjuror. legs were
stretching. it was covered for a short
while longer and then was able to walk
about. Tietze had won and the scien-
tists of Washington street were ulna:

“What is the stuff?" someone asked.

"All." replied Tietae, “now you ask
me. if i tell you, then you will know
as much about it as i do." .

'l‘ietao is sure the compound will
work on hulnan beings the Slillll.‘ as it
does on‘ a iiy.

it is expected that as soon as the
news goes abroad, Time will have
all sorts of inquiries.

(ltto Lindstrom had a little doubt
about the efficacy of the mixture, but
'l‘ietae solemnly assured him that if
he was so unfortunate as to be dead.
he would surely bring him back to life.

 

NO RACES TODAY.

Sandor Yachtsmen Are Overhauling
‘ Rigging of Craft.

MARIlLEiiEAl). Sept. l.——ft was a
day of relaxation among the Sender
vachislnen here todhy, with no races
until tomorrow. when the series will
continue with the Americans credited
with two victories in the President
Taft cup, and no legs in the trophy

- by the Germs-n visitors.

Most of the yachlstnen seized the
opportunity or overhauling some of
the rigging on the little bouts. but the
conditions prevented any hauling out
for cleaning. so nearly all the yachts
remained at their moorings during the
day.

Mid-Sander week, however, in Mar
blehead was one of the liveliest. of the
international series. as there was
more of a spectacular reception tr
the Germans through tbe‘dresaing oi
all the yachts with flags shortly after
noon. and an illumination this evening.
Hundreds of people Jonrneyed to the
old flailing town today to see the spec-
tacle and catch a glimpse of the little
boats as they rode quietly at anchor
among their larger sisters.

WATCHING LAUNCH OWNERS.

Government inspector at Work in Nor-
walk Harbor.

There weren't many launch Owners
who went by the Washington street
bridge, last night. who did not dis-
cover that the government launch in-
spector was right on the job. Ho ran
into the harbor yesterday in illslaunch
and set up a watch.

Those boats which were not com.
plying strictly with the navigation
laws were ordered to bolt and their
owners were given ti‘ warning. No
prosecutions were made but it was
made known that further infractions
of the law will mean trouble for those
not complying with the regulations.

The inspector was also here Monday
and on last FrldAy. He has been go-
ing all along the Sound. it is under-
stood that taken as a whole, he has
found conditions here good.

NOT THAT BTVLE.

David is. Hill. former governor‘of
and senator from New York, has a so-
cludod hattei’somewhers in the state
who makes his high hats after elabor-
ate plans drawn by Mr. lllll many
years ago. and not changed since.

Bmithsonlan Institute noisntlsts Great-
ly Pleased with ThOrn.

WASHINGTON. Sept. l.~—The scien‘
lists of the Smithsonian linstitutlott
are now satisfying their curiosity as
to what the first (‘tlnflilllnlfini of box-
es. containing trophies of Col. Roose-
velt's African bunt have within their

sides.

Upon opening the ranks containing
the skins. iilry were found to be in
good shape and Major Mourns, in
charge of the Smithsonian forces, with
Col, Roosevelt, has been notified of
the fact. The work of stuffing the
skins will not be undertaken for some
time, and it will probably be two
years before the work la completed.

The scientists of the institution have
expressed thehsolves as having never
seen a more interesting and well-pres-
erved collection of mammals and
birds.

A beautiful collection of birds. said
to be more valuable than the larger
animals. is in the collection.

What the scientists consider a great
prize In the warty rat. it is slightly
larger than the. ordinary rat. and has
two warts on its lower lip, and has
never before been seen in this coun‘
try. .lt is a carnivorous animal and
lives on the weaker members of its
own tribe. its carcass has been kept
separate from the others to prevent
breaking its leader bones.

Th.- work of classifying the birds.
which are in a perfect state of pros
t-rvution. will not be undertaken until
the African experts return. in the col
lt't‘inil there is every kind of rabbit.

KILLED WHEN AUTO SKIDDED.

WEST TlSBURY. Mass. Sept. 1.—
Walter H. Phillips, of Phillipsdaio,
i.. was thrown from his seat and in-
stantly killed. and five other young
men were slightly injured early today,
when an automobile in which they
were riding. skidded at a sharp turn
in the road. breaking‘a wheel and
coming to sudden stop. The young
men were all spending the summer at
Oak Bluffs. Early today they decid-
ed to take an automobile ride by
moonlight, and L‘harloa A. Kotach. a
chwii'eur. brought out the big touring
car of his employer, W. H. Hart, of
New Britain, Conn.

The machine was spending along
the West Tisbury road, when a sharp
turn was reached. Kotach attempted
to make the turn without greatly re
dotting speed, and the car skidded, one
of the wheels broke and the not
stopped short. Phillips, who was in
the front seat. was buried into the
road. striking on his head and break‘
in his‘nocit. One of the other men
was hurt seriously.

A DESIRE FOR SELF-EXPRESSION

(Orison Swett Harden in “Success
Ma'gaaine.") _

We hear a great deal of criticism
of the greed of rich men, which
keeps them pushing ahead after the!
have more money than they can ever
use to advantage. but. the fact is
many of these soon find their reward
in the exercise of their powers, not.
in amassing money, and greed plays
a comparatively small part in their
struggle for conquest.

Of course this is not trite of all
rich men. Many of them are playing
the game, and keep on playing it, for
the love of accumulating Their sei-
nshness and greed have been indulg-
ed so long that they amount to a
passion, and tho accumulators often-
times become money-moi.

But.tho higher type of man plays
the game. from start to finish, for the
in e of achievement: because it sat-
ls as his sense of lint, of Justice:
plays it because if. wii make him a
larger, oomplotor man; because it sat-
isfies his passion. for upmion, for
flit-m. “0 Ways the guns for' the
