Strange Causes of Death.?Of the
hundreds of death certificates handled
annually by the Wisconsin state
board of health in making its classification
of diseases, many as filled
out by the local physicians and mailed
to the board, contain unusual
comment as to the cause of death,
says the Chicago Herald.
Some of these found in the reports
of L. W. Hutchcroft, chief statistician,
follow:
A mother "died in infancy."
"Went to bed feeling well, but
woke up dead."
"Died suddenly at the age of 103.
To this time he bid fair to reach a
ripe old age."
"Do not know cause of death, but
patient fully recovered from last illness."
"Deceased had never been fatally
sick."
"Died suddenly; nothing serious."
"Pulmonary hemorrhage, sudden
death." (Duration four years.)
"Kick by horseshoe on left kidney."
"Deceased died from blood poison
caused by a broken ankle, which is
remarkable, as the automobile struck
him between the lamp and the radiator."
Reached the Spot.?An old worthy
who was In the habit of calling each
evening at the village inn for a "drop
o' the best," found the landlord one
night polishing the taps. After a
few remarks about the weather he
received his nightly dram.
After he had gone the landlord
discovered to his horror that he had
supplied Donald with a half-gill out
of the bottle of sulphuric acid which
he had been using for cleaning the
taps. Every moment he expected to
hear of old Donald's death, and his
relief was great when the old worthy
arrived the next evening.
"Donald, what did you think of
that whisky you got last night?"
"It was a fine dram, a warming
dram, but it had one fault. Every
time I coughed it set fire to my
whiskers."
Done by the Typee.?Newspaper
compositors and men who edit copy,
no matter how eagle-eyed they may
be, sometimes allow errors to get by
that are either laughable or humiliating.
The Chicago Tribune, in reporting
a political meeting, said that
the vast audience rent the air with
their snouts.
Another Chicago paper reported
that the propeller Alaska was leaving
port with a cargo of 40,000
bushels of cats.
A Buffalo paper, in describing the
scene when Roosevelt took the oath
of office as president, said it was a
spectacle never to be forgotten when
Roosevelt, berore the cnier justice 01
the supreme court, and a few witnesses,
took his simple bath.
Not Historical^?Miss Smith, the
teacher, was hearing the history
class. The pupils seemed unusually
dull on this occasion, and in vain
did the teacher try to get them to
give correct answers. At last she
looked at the child who was her star
pupil.
"Now, Elsie," she said, "Mary followed
Edward VI, didn't she?"
"Yes, ma'am," replied the little
Kirl.
"And. now, who followed Mary?"
asked the teacher, hopefully.
All was silent for a moment, then
Elsie raised her hand.
"Yes, Elsie?" quered the teacher.
"Who followed Mary?"
"Her little lamb, teacher," said
Elsie, triumphantly.
Didn't Like Preparatory Sounds.?
"Jones," said a hotel manager to
a waiter, "what did that gent from
table No. 7 leave so suddenly for?"
"Well, sir," said the waiter, "he
sat down and asked for sausage, and
I told him that we were out of them,
but if he would care to wait a few
minutes I could get the cook to
make some."
"Well." said the manager, "what
then?"
"I went to the kitchen." responded
the waiter, "and accidentally trod
upon the dog's tail, and of course he
yelped. And suddenly the gent got
up and left."?London Tit-Bits.
And Run Like Time.?General Pau
tells of a French non-commissioned
officer who was being examined on
the subject of tactics.
"Give me an instance of strategy."
was the question.
The soldier thought hard, then replied:
"When in battle you run out of
ammunition, and don't want the enemy
to know it, it is good strategy to
keep on firing."
Found in the Ballot Box?"What do
you mean?" demanded the woman
watcher at the polls.
"What's wrong?"
"I hear you have been throwing
out the ballots of women."
"We have not. We did throw out
a recipe for sponge cake, a package
of powder papers and a couple of
love letters."?Judge.
Neutrality.?"Your father and mother
had an awful fuss last night, didn't
they?"
"Perfectly awful."
"Which side did you take?"
"Papa has promised me a piano
for Christmas and mamma has promised
me a diamond, so I am strictly
neutral."?Houston Post.
Counting Them.?"Are your son's
running expenses with his auto
much?"
"Well, with running up a bill for
supplies and running down pedestrians
and getting run in by the cops,
they do run some."?Baltimore
American.
He Could Only Shrug His SSou'ders.
?"A French officer captured by the
Germans had great difficulty in explaining
that he was not a spy."
"Great difficulty, you say?"
"Yes. His hands were tied behind
him and he couldn't gesticulate."
Natural Result.?"Mayme blushed
when she found 1 was trying to read
her face."
"Well, people usually do blush
when their faces are getting red."?
Baltimore American.
Didn't Mean it that Way.?"Madam,
I am visiting the rural districts in
the interest of diversification. Have
you a hog on the place?"
"You'll find my husband out in the
barn."

THE DARDANELLES
Famous Strip of Water that is Often
Mentioned in Dispatches.
The national geographic society of
Washington, has prepared the following
descriptions of the Dardanelles
and Austrian Galacia, which are
figuring prominently In the war In
Europe:
Keen political interest has centered
I around the Dardanelles since the
time when Persian strength was tested
upon the soldiers of free Greece.
Xerxes came this way with his vast
army for the invasion of Europe, and
crossed the Dardanelles then known
as the Hellespont, over a pontoon
K?.lr1flPA nAnofrunto/1 naflr Ahvdos. on
U1 IU5C, VVUOhi -vvvv. "V*.. -- ? ? ? ,
the Asiatic side, and touching Grecian
shores near Sestos, where the waterway
is about 6,500 feet wide. It was
on this occasion that the capricious
currents of the strait called forth the
most historic spanking ever given.
They carried away the pontoons,
whereupon Xerxes ordered the Hellespont
to be soundly flogged.
Alexander, in 334 B. C., 146 years
after Xerxes, crossed in the path of
the Persian and began his successful
subjugation of the outworn east.
The tide shifted once more, and
throughout the long struggle of Byzantium
against the east, the Dardanelles
were ever and again frontier
waters. At last, in 1356, the Turks
forced themselves over the muchcontested
boundary, spread over its
European banks, and settled down to
stay.
No longer a frontier of easternwestern
struggle, the Dardanelles,
nevertheless, preserved their political
importance, an importance derived,
first from Turkish control of Medlterrenean-Black
sea commerce, and,
later, in which the great powers of
Europe sought to balance themselves
one against the other, and each to
make that balance contribute to its
own advantage mighty Russia's only

the powers, however, have held her
shut up fast within the Inland sea.
For a century these conventions have
stood between Russia and her ambitions
to have an outlet on the Mediterranean.
By a five power treaty in 1841, it
was arranged that no ship of war of
any nation other than the Ottoman, i
should pass the Dardanelles without
express permission of the porte. The
closing of the strait was reaffirmed
at London in 1871, and at Berlin in
1873. Even merchant vessels must
have passes, which they are required
to show to the authorities at the narrows.
Boats may pass through only
during the daytime, yet they are required
to pay a small lighthouse fee.
The strait is a narrow, irregular
channel connecting the Agean sea
with the sea of Marmora. It cuts
Europe from Asia on a course from
southwest to northeast. It is only
about 45 miles long, while it varies
in width from one to five miles. Its
average depth is 180 feet. Upon the
European side the shores are steep
and barren, and their inhospitable

strong defense. The shores on
the Asiatic side are long-sloped and
very fertile; for the most part be
ing clothed with beautiful forests.
The Dardanelles guard the approach
to Constantinople from the
Mediterranean, as the Bosphorus
guards the approach from the Blaok
sea. They were first fortified by two
castles, one on either shore, in the
path of Xerxes and Alexander, built
by Mohammed II, in 1462. These
have been often remodeled. During
the last century, with Turkish power
on the wane, and the Turk himself,
apparently acquiescent, the remodeling
and extending of the old fortifications
was brought about by French,
English and German prodding as
temporary interests pointed toward
the Golden Horn.

In the Atlanta campaign, lost their
lives. Do you suppose if a life insurance
salesman, representing a company
that was recognized by all intelligent
men as being Amply Willing; yes, anxious
to Carry Out its contracts, had offered
to write the application of any
of the soldiers who could, by any
means have raised the premiums, Just
before they entered on the battle, they
would have told him "times were too
hard," or that they were too old or the
rates were too high, or that their widows
or children or other dependents
could shift for themselves? No, You
don't think so. They would have applied
for every dollar for which they
could pay. Now it is a fact, demonstrated
by just as reliable statistics as
those already quoted, that the man who
is 49 years old today, stands identically
the same chance of dying before he is
53, as did each soldier who entered to
be killed in the battle of Gettysburg,
while the chance of the man who is 39
today, stands the same chance of dying
before he is 45, as did the man who
was in the Atlanta campaign. Yet
there are hundreds and thousands of
them who make the excuses listed

Regarding the
Monument
The Monument is the sole product
of man which is expected to exist,
without change or repair, for all
time?beyond the memory that we
cherish in our hearts, which is only
as long as the span of life. It may
help to form a record, but it Is erect- 1
ed as a tribute of love to those who '
have passed "to that bourne from
whence no traveler ever returns." As
such, let it be a thing of beauty, not
dark and somber, but bright and
cheerful; not typifying earthly sorrow,
but symbolizing undying love.
And as architecture is brought to us
from the past by the tombs of the
ancients, so let us pass on to those
in our sieps, sumo wormy expression
of our conception of beauty.
