Point of the Joke the Prominent Cit! zen Had Not Seen. They are telling a good story on s prominent citizen of Syracuse who tried to repeat a joke to his wife and fou::d the joke was on himself. It seems that the citizen was in a down town hat store one evening, after clos ing hours, and the proprietor from some incentive said: "I will give to any man here a new silk hat if he will swear on his word of honor that never since his marriage has he cast a lan guishing glance, or the eye of love on any woman other than his wife." A young man stepped forward and saul. "Give me tlie hat." ''Are you ready io swear?" asked the shopkeeper. "I am," replied the young man firm ly. "Take the hat," said the hatter, who then added: "When were you mar ried., by the way?" "Last night," replied ihe young man. This was the joke-the joke on the hatter-which the prominent citizen ran home and repeated to Ms wife wi ci much gusto. After lie had finished the wife did not seem to appreciate the humor as keenly as had been anticipated by the husband. "Why don't you laugh?" asked the latter. "Don't you think it is funny?" "I was thinking," replied the wife "Why didn't you bring home the hat, dear?" "Well, darn lt! A silk hat never did look well on me," remonstrated the prominent citizen. A Man of Nerve. He looked admiringly at the tall man who was deep in a game of bil Hards. "There's a man who has the most superb nerve of any one t ever saw,"' he said. "Really?" returned his companiou inquiringly. "There is no possible chance for a mistake." "Did you ever see it tested?" "Well, rather. I saw him at a pri vate theatrical entertainment one night last week-" "Sometimes it does require nerve,'to sit through one."

Foreigners Get Up a Startling Bugaboo PROMISED PUNISHMENT OF CRIME Declared That is-Cent Cotton Will Be The Ruin of the United States Scared Foreigners. Washington, Special.-"A Revolt Inst American Cotton" is the title of a long report just received at the State Department from United States Consul Geneial Mason-, at Berlin, Ger many. Mr. Mason says that foremost among the economic movements in Europe which may have a serious meaning for important interests in America is the present simultaneous e:iort Of Great Britain, France and Germany to eman cipate their textile industries from de pendence upon American cotton. The portentous feature Of the situation is that lhere is not only in Germany, but throughout Europe, a growing feeling of resentment against this dependence and a determination that their spinning and weaving Industries must at any ?ost be emancipated from such vassal age by the development bf wholly new sources ot Bupply. The German press charges that the American cotton mar ket is at the mercy of the speculators, who drive up and own thc prices to suit their own purposes. Thus far the movement ls lit its infancy, but its fu ture may bo ominous for the co'.ton growers of our Southern States, says/ Mr. Mason. Experiments in the East African colonies during the l&sty two years have been successful, yt is an nounced that there are ma#y square miles of land in East Afn'ca with soil and dimat? well adapted for the cul tivation of cotton. ^J/hrough the Ger man consul at Galveston arrangemens are being madejo send over and edu cate agricultural schools and on plan tations in Texas a number of young Germans/who before going will con tract to spend a number of years as, superintendents of plantations in the German African cotton colonies. Coolie labor from China will be employed in case the natives prove too incompe tent-. it may he many bet?re thi3 European crusade for colonial cotton may be accomplished, but. says Mr. Mason, whether we like lt or not the day will come sooner or later when the cotton of our Southern uplands and: valleys will no longer be king beyond the frontiers of the United Slates.

For three years the two fighters have been endeavoring to ar range a battle in order to decide who was entitled to the middle-weight championship, but some unforeseen bitch usually terminated the negotia tions until the present match was ar ranged in Chicago three weeks ago. The men agreed lo meet here in a six round bout for a $5.000 purse, split equally and under the laws governing boxing in Philadelphia no decision can he given. Under these conditions, how ever, each man was as careful and con scientious with his training as if he was going 20 rounds to a decision for the championship.

THE WORK OF RESCUE Gruesome Sights that flet the Qaie of Brave Men Who Dared the Deep Recesses of the Wrecked Hine, Further details of the mine horror of Monday morning are given in Tues day night's press dispatches. "Driving snow and sleet, aided by ? biting wind did all in their power to hamper the movements of those who came to Cheswich: to aid in the work of saving the living, if there were any, and recovering the bodies bf the de?d at the Harwick Mine, in which nearly 200 men were imprisoned by ?n ex plosion yesterday. Meii came from I mining districts all about the neighbor hood and did valiant work toward f searching for the dead. Early iii thc morning the mine inspectors. F._ W. Cunningham, of the fourth district, in which the mine is located; W. R. Adams, of the third district; Henry Laudiett, of the first district; Isaac G: Roby, of the fifth district; James* Blick, of the seventh district, arrived: Chief Mine Inspector Broderick had also wired from Harrisburg that he would/ j be on hand if needed. / \ "Cunnin^i-am was the first inspector over the ground and spent the greater pait ot Monday night in thfif mine. Early Tuesday niomingygnatching ? few hours sleep, he wenx below again and after directing th# movements' of the volunteer fcrceJfn bfatticirig So as to keep back thpf dangerous gas in front finally a^fuounced that he was ready to lead/ a searching party back into the raj/ne. The rescuers went back for manv^feet, but when they caine to the surface they had no tidings of liv ing ;men still entombed. Up and down wiriri the bucket in the bitter cold. Men /Clambered from the icy elevator, dash ed to the nearby engine room" and when warmed went back to the bucket and down the shaft. Then began the rigging of the platform cage-six hours work on a wooden platform to take the debris and the dead from the abyss "Two plp.zia are already prepared to receive thc ead. The school house Is "ready fo se as a morgue and an other build. belonging to the com pany near tl '.trance to the shaft is also in reac s. The two buildings are desiguati -i morgues, because no one who knew he story believes that a-doctor's alt! ,*ill be necessary except perhaps for some of the rescuers. At 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon 16 mon went down into the shaft to do the work of brattling, bolstering,, tun. neling and removing the debric that has so far bared their progress into the workings where the men were at labor when the explosion came. Their shift was supposed to be of three hours only. Even at that it was a hard task. Even before the bucket reached the bottom they were drenched with water, which the cold draught through the shaft soon turned to ice. Shortly after they were let down, a temporary hoist that had been rigged up to bring up the d?bris and the dead was started down the shaft. Then c3mo snow and efforts were made to reach the living men at the bottom of the shaft, but the wooden sides of the hoist.swollen by the water, stuck to the irou guide slide and then came hours of manoeuvering to reach the bottom. The men below had no means of warmth and many of them were standing in deep water. Every effort was made to lower the, cage and finally ir was loosened and got within M feet of the bottom. The men were within easv roach of a rope, but their fingers, numbered and almost frozen by the cold, were unable to grasp the offered help. "It was 8 o'clock when the first three men of the party who went down at 3 o'clock were brought to the surface. Not one of them was able to walk, they were so numbed by the cold, and they told of their experience in the mine below. Henry Beckert was one of the ! first men out of the cage. He was car ried to the boiler house and, after 20 minutes of warmth, managed to straighten himself and sav: "It was a : frightful experience. Tne cold and hun ger-and no good we could do. We were too cold to work. There is ap parently no onp to rescue. We had a hard time to find many of the dead. A shred of clothing here and another there, a jacket, a pair of overalls, but few bodies. When we left the bottom there were 12 bodies lying there ready to be brought up. There were many otheis there, and the bodies of many will never be found." 27 Below Z TO. St. Paul. Minn..

He held out but little hope of an allevia tion of the cold weather before Tues day.

" Man Resuscitated After Being Sixteen Hours Under Water. A Swedish gardener, while attempt ing to rescue a companion who had fallen into the water under the ice, had the misfortune to fall in himself and was drowned. A search was made for the body, but sixteen hours elapsed before it was found. When discovered it was in an upright position, with the feet resting upon the ground. On be ing drawn up the body was wrapped closely in woolen clothes and speed ily removed lo a warm place, where it was rubbed and rolled about for some t:me. Spirits wen; then administered, and by these means the man was re st?! red to life. This remarkable instance of the restoration of life was brought under the notice of the Queen-Mother of Sweden, who afterwards took a great interest in the gardener, and gave him a yearly pension. The facts were first recorded by Dr. Pccklln, and after wards fully corroborated by the fa mous Dr. Langelot. Forcea into Happiness.
