V l 1 Ml iff i 1 I 7 lAwifflWEif FOUGHT FOR LIFE WITH FANATIC A copy of an order issued in the Philippines, which calls the attention of the army to the gallant conduct of Private Jeremiah Cronin.of the Twenty-third Infantry, has just been sent throughout the army by the War De partment. The order, officially, cap tioned "gallant conduct," tells what Cronin did, and this, according to of ficers ou Governors Island, was one of the bravest acts in the history of the service. Army men who have served in the Moro country In the Philippines are a unit in declaring that the hardest man to kill in the world is the Mohamme dan fanatic among the Moros. Colo nel Scott, Superintendent of the Mil itary Academy at West Point, who was for several years in command of operations against the Moros, has said that the Moro bolo is the deadliest thing in the world in the hands of a Moro. Jerry Cronin, according to the or der issued in the Department of Min danao and signed by Lieutenant F. S. Young, his battalion adjutant, did nothing more or less than fight with a stick of kindling wood a Moro armed with a bolo. This was in a district of Mindanao, where the Twenty-third Infantry was on duty. The Moro's weapon, the order states, was "a heavy, keen edged working bolo." The order says that Private Harry Smith, of the Twenty-third, "while walking unarmed, about seventy-five yards in the rear of his barracks at 6.40 a. in.," was surprised and as saulted by a bolo-armed Moro. The Moro first inflicted a wound in the back of Smith's head, then he struck him on the left arm. The force of this blow threw Smith to the ground with such force that his shoulder was dislocated. Thus he was absolutely at the mercy of the Moro. At this point Cronin comes into the affair. Cronin happened to leave the barracks and, hearing Smith's cry, hurried to the rescue. Cronin had no arms of any kind, but he kneW he had no time to lose if Smith's life was to be saved. Seizing a stick of kind ling wood that was lying on the ground Cronin started for the Moro. The Moro was just about to end Smith's struggles with another blow of his bolo when Cronin rushed upon him. Then began the strange single com bat. For ten minutes Cronin and the Moro fought, the soldier deftly parry ing every swing of the bolo with his stick of kindling wood. The noise of the struggle was heard in the bar racks and an armed detachment of soldiers was scut to aid Cronin. The' rescuing soldiers were unable to fire at first without danger of hit ting Cronin. He shouted to them to take up a certain position, adding that he- would fight the Moro into range, at the same time covering him self. He did it, and the soldiers be gan firing. Half a dozen steel capped bullets were imbedded in the Moro's body before he gave up fighting and fell to the ground, dead. The order in which the story of Jerry Cronin is told closes by stating that his "coolness and presence of mind and his fearless attack with ouly a club on a desperate well armed Moro, indicate high soldiery qualities and reflect credit not only upon him self, but upon his company and regi ment as well." In passing it may be added that "Jerry" is on the way home with his legimeut now. New York Times. HANDLING A TIGER. "In a cage near the room in which I lived while in Khiva," says Mr. Langdon Warner in the Century Mag azine, "was a tiger from the Oxus swamps. He had taken a dislike to me. and every time I passed his cage he got up and paced angrily toward he, snarling. "Into the cage of this beast, at the command of the prince, a Turcoman stepped, armed with a short stick as big round as his wrist. With this stick he struck the tiger's nose as he made for him, and then,, with the palms out and eyes fixed, he walked slowly up to the shrinking beast and stoked his face and flank. "The tiger snarled and took the man's hand in his open mouth. I held my breath and looked for the bleeding stump to fall away. But keeping that hand perfectly still, with the other he tickled the tiger's jowl and scratched his ear. till with a yawn and a pleased snarl the big cat rolled over on his back to have his belly Ecratched. "The man then sank to his knees, always keeping his hands in motion over the glossy fur, and with his foot drew toward him a collar attached to a chain. This he snapped round the beast's neck and, rising to his feet, laid hold of tho chain and dragged the tiger out. "This was only the second lime that the cage hrd been entered. As soon as the ris;er was outside he es pled the watching party and started lor them, but came up short on the collar. If" he had chosen to use his weight and strength no four of them 'oiild have held his tether, but as it was, th'j Turcoman i'otmd little diffi culty with him, and held him, snarl ins, while a camera was snapped."- HIS "BOYS.' y There are times when the so-callet "ied tape" of the army gives way; under the stress of circumstances. At the Battle of Chickamauga, General Willich, who was commanding a bri gade, incurred the displeasure of Gen eral Rosecrans, the commanding gen eral, by some very slight omission. General Willich was sent for, and informed by the general commanding that he must consider himself under arrest for the present. "General," said Rosecrans, sternly, "consider yourself under arrest, and leave your sword here until your case is tried." "Yes, general, I will consider my self under arrest," was the reply, "and shust so zoon as dls fight's over I'll come and fix him up.", "But, sir," said the astounded Rosecrans, "I want you to consider yourself under arrest now." "Of course I do," responded Willich promptly, "and so zoon as I get off dis fight, I'll be up and settle him." "But, sir," expostulated the com manding general, "I can't let you go into this fight. You are under ar rest. I will assign an officer to your brigade." "You send an officer to fight my boys!"' cried Willich, indignantly. "He can't do it; they don't know him. Me they know; I teach them. I fight them, and none of the boys would know how to fight or what to do, only when I go with them. My boys belong to me; yes, me, General Wil lich. I command the brigade, and I must fight the brigade!" General Rosecrans gave it up. General Willich was requested to re turn and fight his boys," which he did most successfully. And that was the end of the matter. PUGNACIOUS EAGLE OWL. On his way home one evening last October from Karbenning railway sta tion, in central Sweden, a young man when passing through a small wood was vigorously attacked by an eagle owl. Alighting on his shoulder, the bird inflicted some severe wounds with its powerful beak and claws, and when beaten off it carried off his cap in token of victory. Some years ago several similar at tacks by eagle owls occurred during the summer months in the province of Vester Gotland, in one of which an unfortunate old man lost an -eye. A correspondent of the Swedish pe riodical Fran Skog och Sio states that in the part of Vermeland to which he belongs there was an eagle owl which became well known for its repeated attacks on human beings who chanced to come near its abode. "While cut ting timber one day a man was as sailed by the bird, which dr,ove its claws into the upon part of his body. He managed to get rid of it, but it at once came on again, when a blow from his axe put an end to its further attentions. A peasant in the parish of Stammar, Nerike, had a similar experience in April last. He was fetching water from a lake close by his house when an eagle owl suddenly flew at him. A kick made it retire a few yards, when it came in contact with the fence.- This seemed to irri tate it, for it returned to the attack. but the man seized it by the neck, tucked it under his arm and carried it off home. On the way the owl's mate kept Hy ing around in unpleasantly close prox imity. Ultimately the captor had to despatch his prisoner, his wife and children being much scared at its for midable aspect. From the Field. AN AVERTED DUEL. There was nothing old Pomp en joyed more than telling stories of the importance of his position in the days "befo' de wah," when he was a con spicuous figure on a Southern planta tion of the best sort. "I brung up Marse Charlie an" Marse William," he often said, solemnly. "Deir own fam'ly 'lowed I saved bofe deir lives once, besides all de res I done fo' 'em. " 'Twar jes' like dis: Marse Charlie an' Marse W'illiam, dey bofe tuk de mos' 'grejus fancy to a young lady dat come a-visiting de house; an' some body had fill deir foolish haids all up wid talk about duels; an' dey jes' promulgated to hab one, an' find out which ob 'em was to hab de young lady. "Marse Chalie he was sebenteen, short an' fiery, an' Marse William he was sixteen, slim an cool; but dey was bofe sot an'.'termined on de duel. "Course dey didn't tell me 'bout it, but I s'pected it, same' as L always did, 'kase I looked after dem boys fo' deir paw ah' maw, when dere was comp'ny. "So I hatched out, an' I follered, an' I crep' up to where dey was be ginning to take p'sition fo' de duel, an an' I jes' broke it up." "How did "you do it, Pomp?" each listener is sure to ask. "How did I do it, chile? Whj I jes.'1 emptied a pail o' water right on Marse Charlie's haid, an' I tuk an' spanked Marse William dat's how." 'The Hot Air Furnace. There was a young publisher who made a sudden fortune by appealing to that largely neglected class which we call society. Gaining riches, the young publisher retired and was seen less and less in his old haunts. "Where's Lawrence?", some one asked of "Mr. Dooley."

And on her poor, wan elieek a tear told how the heart can weep, And he said: "My love was weary . God bless her! She's asleep." He knelt beside her gravestone in the shuddering autumn night, And he heard the dry grass rustle, and his- face was thin arid white, And through his heart the tremor ran of grief that cannot weep. And he said: "My love was weary God bless her! She's asleep." SHE QUIT But It Was a Hard Pull. It is hard to believe that coffee will put a person in such condition as it did an Ohio woman. She tells her own story: "I did not believe coffee caused my trouble, and frequently said I liked it so well I would not, and could not ouit' drlnkins it. but I was a miser- 'able sufferer from heart trouble and nervous prostration for four years. "I was scarcely able to be around, had no energy and did not care for anything. Was emaciated and had a constant pain around my heart, until 1 thought I could not endure it. For months I never went to bed expecting to get up in the morning. I felt as though I was liable to die any time. "Frequently I had nervous chills and the least excitement would drive sleep away, and any little noise would upset me terribly. I was gradually getting worse until finally one time it came over me and I asked myself what's the use of being sick all the time and buying medicine bo that I could indulge myself in coffee? ;'So I thought I would see if I could quit drinking coffee and got some Postum to help me quit. 1 made it strictly according to directions and I want to tell you, that change was the greatest step In my life. It was easy to quit coffee because I had the Pos tum which I now like better than the old coffee. "One by one the old troubles left, until now I am In splendid health. nerves steady, heart all right and the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, don't take any medi cine, can do all my housework and have done a great deal beside." Read "The Road to Wellvllle," In pkgs. "There's a Reason."

Flour from cotton seed meal as an edible is said to be no longer in the theoretic stage. For a number of years cotton seed crushers have been claiming that cotton is a grain crop as well as a fibre and that from the seed an edible Hour may be ob tained. If flour in any quantity could be produced from cotton seed, the price of wheat flour would be reduced materially, and anything is a boon which contributes to reduce the cost of living. , From Tennessee comes the an nouncement that this cotton seed llfUi liaSJ l j-JJ'-Ctll.

"Those who believe in the South as the future salvation of the nation say that the chances are that neither Mr. Hill nor others who have given the food question much thought have counted upon the possibility of the untouiu'hed source the cotton field of the South."
