The Cock Lane Ghost.
One of the most fumons "ghosts" i.'i
history was known as the Cook lane
ghost. It was ln 17H- that mysterious
knocking and scratching were heard at
a house in Cock lane. London, and
•were said to Vie the work of tile spirit
of a young woman who laid lived in
the house and was burled in the neigh
borhood church of St. John. Thou
sands visited the house until n care
ful Investigation was made in the pres
ence of Dr. Johnson and other celebri
ties. and the ghost was proved to l»e
tiie creation of a female ventriloquist.
Che owner of the house was set in the
pillory, and the crowd collected a sub
scvlption for him. The crowd was on
the side of the ghost.
FIRST DUTY.
We shoul/l tell ourselves once
. for- all that it is the first duty of
the soul to become as happy,
'gorapiete, independent and great
- as lies in its power.—Maeter

L
What London Might Have Boon.
There was a time when London was
'actively planning to lie a "city beauti
ful." Plans are »till In existence
which, had they been adopted, would
have resulted in a really magnificent
city. Sir Christopher Wren prepared
a set immediately after the great fire,
though private interests prevent'd their
adoption. It was purposed to build
main thoroughfares ninety feet wide,
to insulate all tile churches in conspic
uous positions, form large piazzas and
group tlie halls of all the city compa
nies in a handsome square annexed to
Guildhall. Finally n fine quay was to
occupy the hank of the river from
Blnckfrinrs to the Tower.
Qualified.
Employer—Yes; I advertised for a
strong boy. Do you think you will
suit? Applicant—Well, 1 have just
fini sited thrashing three other appli
cants out in the passage.—London Onin

The 1913 (Hidden Tour From
Minneapolis to Glacier National Park
T HE liita GlUldeu Tour from Minneapolis to Glacier National park created a new epoch in the national automo
bile tour, inasmuch as It was, the first time that a modern car run of this kind ever penetrated the Itocky
mountains.
Thirty cam started from Minneapolis on July 11. in a drizzling rain, and all except two finished in front
of the Glacier Park hotel after a run of 1.233 miles through three states—Minnesota, North Dakota apd Montana.
The finish was uttended by some dramatic features. C. A. Muneer, driving one of the Hup machines which won
the runabout prize, collapsed from a nervous prostration as he drew up in front of the A. A. A. officials with only a
fraction of a inimité to spare.
The tour has already proved one of the greatest incentives to good road building in the history of the northwest,
nearly glJoon.OQD In road repairs having been made to make the national event a success. The Great Northern rail
way transcontinental automobile route from the Twin Cities to Seattle now lsivn assurance.
The Glidden trophy was won by the Metz trio, Dr. L. A. Park, driving a Locomobile. winning the touring car
prize.
Incidentally the 350 tourists who took part in the automobile run formally opened the world's most unique .og
hotel. This structure was erected by Louis W. IIIII, chairman of the board of directors of the Great Northern rail
way. at a cost of *150.000, and who also completed the building of a *100.000 sceaic automobile highway connecting
Glacier Park Station. Mont., with St. Mary lake, in Glacier National park. Tea miles of tills roadway were hewn
through dense forests, thus connecting America's greatest beauty spot with the entstde world.
