Ill's Hair "Raising Experiences In Carting JViiroglycerin JWar rotv Escapes from 22eing "Bloi&n to Atoms. Jimmy O'Hare, the little Irishman with the sunset hair, handles enough liquid death every day to cause 200 or 300 funerals if it were to explode in a crowd, says a Chamite (Kan.) corre spondent of tho St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Yet he is as light hearted a creature as a man meets in a day's journey and sings as he drives his wagon loaded with nitroglycerin lump ing over tin rough oil field road and the railroad crossings. A wagon load of nitroglycerin is from 50 to 3t;0 quarts, and either quantity is 3 4 !Ji "l'HF,,tBD AN TOXPLOSIOX." enough to destroy several blocks of buildings. Jimmy has been in the ni troglycerin business ten years, and in that time the fear of an awful fate has passed away, lie says: "Xo one can prevent lightning striking a magazine and blowing it up. and sometimes a team runs away. There must be chances as long as the nitroglycerin is a high explosive, and sometimes a man is buried in a market basket if lie is not careful. "It does not pay for a man handling explosives to be afraid. There are two things which cause all the trouble in this business, and they are whisky and nervousness. You can never tell just exactly how these nitroglycerin acci dents happen, because all the eyewit nesses are generally dead. Take the case of the man in Coffeyvllle who was blown up in the magazine. All that anybody will ever know is that the magazine is gone and that the man was picked up all over a forty acre lot. I knew a case in Olean, X. Y. A man came to mo and asked me to give him a chance to shoot a well. lie had been ill some time. I had two wells to shoot that afternoon. I told him to get a wagon and go out and shoot one. We started about the same time from the magazine. After I was about a mile away I heard an explosion. When 1 got to the place all I found of the man and the team was a bootleg and a paii of h antes. "Then there are the escapes a man has. One night not long ago I was on my way to the magazine. On the farm where it is located there are two gates, one on the east and one on the west side. The west gate had been closed nearly a year. But this night I was tired and went through the west gate to save me a mile's walk. I tried the gate and found it unlocked and drove through. After I had driven a short distance a boy called to me and asked if I had seen a runaway team. Then it developed that had I gone around through the east gate I should have run right into that wild team and might be wearing wings now. "I had an experience in Bradford, Pa., once that "made my hair stand up. The team was standing near the curb. The wagon was loaded. The team was frightened at something, broke the hitch reins and dashed down the street. It struck a telegraph pole, and part of the wagon was smashed. The nitro glycerin was pitched out into the street You should have seen the peo ple scatter. There was a panic right there. But the team dragged the re mains of that wagon two blocks more, the nitroglycerin packages ricochetting around like billiard balls, enough of it to blow the whole country over into New York, but not an ounce of the stuff exploded. "I know of a case where a farmer ran into a nitroglycerin wagon, and both wagons were broken to pieces. The nitroglycerin failed to explode. I know of another case where a man dropped a hammer in a magazine. They have not found all of turn and the mag azine yet. And that's the way it goes." Herb W. Edwards Injured. Herb W. Edwards of Des Moines, Iowa, gat a fall on an icy walk last winter, sprain ing his wrist and bruising his knees. "The next day." he says "they were so sore and siiff I was F.fraid I wou'd hvo to stayin.bed but T rubbed Miem well with Chamberlain's Pain 13 dm and after a few applications all soreness had disappeared."

Tlioiua-s F. Ryan a "Vanquisher ot .Money K i n ns." The sale of a controlling interest in the stock of the Equitable Life Assur ance society to a syndicate headed by Thomas F. Pt.van is thought in Wall street to mean realignment of the forces of capital in several respects. Mr. Ryan, whose diplomatic skill and ability as a financier had much to do with bringing about the reorganization of the Equitable, is a quiet sort of man and has forged to the front in the world of finance without making any unusual noise about it. It has sur prised the public to learn that he is in the small and select list of men who are credited with being millionaires fifty times over. He has been describ ed as a "vanquisher of money kings and a master of Wall street dfJs." Singularly enough the "P"' in Mr. liyan's name stands for "Fortune." THOMAS F. ETAS. The only fortune he had at his christen ing, however, was that in his name. He is of Scotch-Irish ancestry and was born in 1851 in Nelson county, Va. He has worked his way up from poverty to wealth, for, while his family owned an estate in Virginia, the war left them poor. He started business life in a dry goods house in Baltimore and a few years later entered a banking house in New York, the city which has been the chief scene of his financial triumphs. Mr. Ryan has a genius for organization, and his fortune has come to him principally through his ability in the consolidation of public service corporations like street railway and lighting companies. HEIR TO THIRTY MILLIONS. William Ziesrlcr, lie Rieliest Amer ican Hoy of Siis Ajee. Great opportunities await young Wil liam Zieglcr of New York, who has in herited a vast fortune from his foster father, the late WU'iam Ziegler, man ufacturer of bukhig powder and backer of polar expeditions. He Is the richest boy of his age in America and when he comes into the full possession of his fortune will be one of the richest men of his time. He is the son of George Brandt of Chicago, the late 'William Ziegler's half brother. His mother died w-hea he ras an infant, and Mr. and Mrs. Ziegler adopted him. Until the late Mr. Ziegler's death the boy sup posed him to be his real father, know ing his own father, Mr. Brandt, simply as "Uncle George." Mr. and Mrs. Zieg ler were tlevoted to the lad, and his fos ter father spent a great deal of time with him and talked to him often about polar exploration. The boy read books about the arctic regions and grew up WILLIAM ZIEOLEE. to think of Mr. Ziegler more as a sci entist and seeker for the north pole than as business man and multimil lionaire. Indeed the elder Ziegler did all he could to fill the younger with his own ambition that some one of the Ziegler name might have the honor of planting the American flag on the north pole. On April 1, while indulging iu a pil low fight with some schoolmates who were visiting him at the Ziegler coun try seat, near Norotou, Conn., young Ziegler fell on a :cot bed and was so severely torn by an iron hook that his life was in peril. Skillful surgeons saved it. Anxiety for his adopted son' caused the elder Ziegler to fall ill and die. His will gives an aunuity of .j0, 000 to the widow, Mrs. E. Matilda Zieg ler, and smaller annuities to other members of the family, but makes the boy, who is now fourteen, heir to the 30,000,000 estate. It will come to him at different periods, one quarter when he is twenty-five and the three remain ing quarters at intervals of five years until he is forty and receives the full principal, when, it is believed, the property will be worth S."i0,000,000. It is expected young Ziegler will continue ais foster father's work of looking for the pole. When You Have a Bad Cold. You want a remedy that will not only give quick relief but effect a permanent cure. You want a remesiy that will relieve the lungs and keep expectoration easy. You want a remedy that will counteract any tendency toward pneumonia. You want a remedy that is pleasant and safe to take. Chambsilains Cough Remedy meets al! ot these requirements and for the speed? and permanent cure of bad colds stands without a peer. For sale by all drugists.

An actor, known variously as "expe rienced," "reliable" and "good all round," one who has been said to "play with authority," and whose "scholarly reading of his lines" has been the sub ject of frequent eulogy, walked out of his manager's office with a roll of type written manuscript clutched tightly in his hand and a look of blended joy and elation irradiating his well seamed face. "I've got my new part," he cried joy ously to a friend whom he met on the sidewalk, "and it's great." "Indeed," said his friend. "What's the character?" "Dunno," replied the Thespian cheer fully, "but it's simply great. If you don't believe me just heft this." And his friend proceeded to "heft" the type written roll, remarking as he handed it back that it must weigh at least half a pound. If this good all round actor had pos sessed any real knowledge of his craft he would have known that the failure he scored was due to the fact that his half pound part was one of those worthless ones which read well and "heft" well, but which afford the play er no opportunity to do anything pleas ing to the public. When Mr. Palmer gave out the parts for the first production of "The Two Orphans" there was one roll of manu script that was the lightest of all and weighed so little that the part hefters in the company turned up their noses in scorn and turned pitying glances on the young actress to whom it was as signed. Y'et that was the part of Lou ise, the blind girl, and Miss Kate Clax tou's performance of it will remain in the popular memory long after every other character in the piece shall have been forgotten.
