He is' only live years old, and one day when his father went to the wheat field to drive the harvester he took him along and perched him on the high seat at his side. ;For a time the little fel low watched the yellow wheat lop over as it was cut in a wide swath,! and the tall arms sweep it back and bind it, and finally the fat bundles being tossed aside one by one. For a time all this was very interesting, but presently ' tjie little fellow grew tjred and began to squirm and complain. And then, just, as his lather was leaning over to look more closely at some of the machinery, off tumbled the little fellow- on the conveyor. He shrieked just once,' and his father -tried vainly to stop the horses! But before he could even slack the speed the 'bo" had been driven up through the elevatcjr canvas with half a bun dle of wheat, the binding twine had twisted- swiftly around his neck and legs, and.: he was rolled put on the "wide carrier, securely bound in a wheat bun dle. He was almost choked and, there was a tiny bit of skin torn from his shoulder, but otherw his fati helped worse ise he wTas unhurt when ler cut the string and him up again. But a frightened boy would have been hard to .find.- Ex. "I can't see bow any family lives without Chamberlain's Col'c, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, " says J R.

Safely Reyic. A very ingenous and valua ble contrivance for the saving of life bv preventing railroad! accidents through forgetful ness of trainmen has been invented. The machine has just' stood a very severe test on the G,reat Northern railroad, after having been previously operated suc cessfully on the St. Paul and Duluth road. Practical rail road men -have given strong in dorsements to the device after seeing its'work. The object of the device is to provide an ac curate and reliable reminder signal and distance indicator for locomotives, by means of which engineers are prevented from forgetting their train or ders as to stopping or meeting points. The mechanism is sim ply but positively connected with the forward trucks of the engine, 'thereby accurately measurirffr the distance trav eled, the dial placed in front of the engineer showing 'cor rectly the distance traveled. Above the smaller of the two dials are placed fifteen triggers or dogs, pivoted at equal dis tances around the centre. When the engineer receives his orders he sets one or more of these triggers to a point ' one mile short of the distance to be traveled before reaching stop ping place. The mileage indi cator, on reaching- such point, releases the trigger, which starts a signal whistle blowing. This continues to blow for one quarter of a mile, promptly warning the engineer of the near approach to - stopping place. If the engineer is inat tentive and fails to stop when this last mile has been run over, the machine sets the air:brake and stops the train for him. A train similarly equipped com ing in the opposite direction would be stopped in the same manner and a collision ; pre vented. The device can be made to run forward or back ward. For foggy or stormy weather, or for dark nights, the device is considered espec ially valuable for ordinary road use. From the Railway World.

Recently it was discov ered that one of the heirs to this vast estate was Miss Grace Clarke, a 14-year-old girl, who lives with her mother, Mrs. Emerson Cornell, j at No. G2 John street, this city, j Imblay Clarke lived in Cran buiy, a town about 12 miles from this city, in the "forties." He went West with the "Forty niners." After a lapse of sev eral years, when nothing was heard from Clarke, his rela tives wrote, to the Postmaster at San Francisco. lie sent word back that Clarke was paying taxes on property valued at $400,000. ' j A few -years later his folks heard that Clarke had gone to Peru and was adding to his large fortune. Then the next news received was to the effect that he had gone to Australia, and was located near the Mur ray River mines, ill Australia. Nothing further was heard from him until the advertisement was seen asking for informa tion regarding his heirs. The matter was then placed ill the hands of Vice-President Ilobart and Governor Griggs. 1 'Miss Clarke attends the Liv ingston Avenue High School, and is very popular j among her school mates.

"He gets his information from his cotton seed buyers, who go into every part of the cotton country, :uid lie is con fident that his figures curate. arc ac- is an over estimate of liieerop which threatens serious determination to the planters.

By that time the; cotton wilHiave passed out j of the hands of its growers find an' increase in tho price will inure to the benefit of the specula tors only." It is diilicult to see on what the estimate of . 10,000,000 bales is based. ! , , The spring season was very late, and the spring Hoods make an important yield in tho flood ed district impossible. The later season was warm and dry. Warmth is needed, but an excessively . hot season with a long drouth is injurious i il. .. : til i lu uiu crop, anu uicse inuuences have done much to curtail the production.
