Argus, Is Nonagenarian's R«cip«
for Long Life.
St. I>ouIs, Mo.—"Get married and lead a regular life. Cut out cakos and pies. Walk a-plenty. Drink a toddy every day.
With this formula you may be healthy, wealthy and a nonagenarian, says Isaac Haer, nlnety-slx-year-old Ponce de Leon, the esBence of whose fount Is contained In the foregoing:
"Never argue politics, style or re¬ ligion. Sleep lots. Don't worry. Eat what you like, except pastries. Get up when you like, he careful in choosing your parents and work, work, work.
"Pastries are menaces, poison of the worst kind; that Is, most heavy, rich, indigestible pastries. Yet we see the smartest of 'em partaking of the richest of era. When they learn to keep out of the bakeshops and Into the air they will have copped the old age beater himself "
Mr. Baer's mind la clear; he reads without the aid of glasses, and he can hear across the room almost perfectly. He experiences not the BliKht<"st dif¬ ficulty going downtown.
Further, Mr, Haer emphatically adds that he Is firmly convinced that the regular habits of a man of family | are conducive to longevity. With a vehemence well worthy of his ninety- j six years he adds: "it isn't anythiiiK | young folks do that gets them started In the race wrong—it is what they! won't do." i

Ambitious California Duck Spoilt
Fowls' Sleep by Inability
to Roost.
I..08 Angeles,--.Mr,-i, (Irosvenor Marshall, a member of the famous Marshall family of Virginia, now liv¬ ing here, ha.s a duck with the linn conviction thai it is a thoroughbred, sure-enough chicken It has Imm-ii nec¬ essary to ostracize him to pre.i'iit the death of the whole bioud of eiiiekens from loss of sleep.
His name was ("larenee. and he w^as i hatched IhrouKh the kinoness of a hi-n. j There waa otherwiBe nothing in the ¦ early life of t'lar<'iiee to distiiiKiiish him from other members of hia spe- i cles on the Marshall hacienda
But Clarence a few days ;t;;o sud¬ denly turned against ihe other ducks on the place. He even deser''-' 'be i little pond constructed especially for ' their benefit lo jiuii w ith the chick- ' ens.
It was observed that Clarence in- [ slsted on taking the top perch w hen ; the chickens went to loost. He found ' it an uneasy resiiui; |ilace and his noc- ' turnal antics baiilKlied sleep from the ! chickens. The brood became emaci- , ated and several died. So Clarence : was given a stall to himself.
Burglars in Minneapolis Do the High Wire Act
MINNEAPOLIS.—Robbers working in Minneapolis the other day performed feats that rivaled anything by the motion picture actors posing for the most perilous perils. The safe crackers made their first attack at the Min¬ neapolis branch of the Schlita Brew¬ ing company. A string of boxcars on a railroad spur running alongside the building gave them their chance. Scaling tbe ladders on the cars, the robbers climbed from the car lops to the roof of a one-story annex. From this roof they pried open a second story window in the main buildins and entered the offices of tbe brew¬ ing company. They knocked tbe com¬ bination off the safe, but failed td throw back the bolt and gave up the job. Ijcaving the brewery ofllce the cracksmen climbed back out the win¬ dow to the annex roof. Nearly sixty feet to the north was the feed store of Johnson & Olson. In the store roof was a skylight. Electric light wires passed from the roof of the brewery to the feed store. They seemed to offer the onl.v available route to the skylight. The robbers took the chance. Tracks on the annex roof Indicated that there were two of the cracks¬ men. The sagging and twisted wires told the story of the tedious and risky journey through the air from one roof to the other. The two men had appar¬ ently traveled hand over hand along the wires for the entire distance.
Once they had gained the roof of the store It was an easy matter to enter the place through the skylight. There they were more successful than on their first Visit. They knocked the combination off the safe and th*i pried open the cashbox. In the box they found $2.'') in good cash and three counter¬ feit dollars that had been taken in by mistake. The robbers counted over the money, threw out the counterfeit dollars and left them on the counter. Then they left the building by openini! a street dcMjr.

Chicagoan May Have Nonedible Watchdog-Goat
CHICAGO.—An educatcfl goat Coinbiiu-d gooting with watch-dogging at the fruit store of .Mike Supalos, West .Madison street and in the Supalos apart¬ ment upstairs. But that was before the neighbors got Supalos' goat.
One morning recently the nobh' though slightly odoriferous animal had disappeared. Supalos called lor the intelligent animal in tlie gentler.t tones, then listened in vaiu for tho pliiintivf "lOrp erp" with which Stan¬ ley, aa the goat was named, was wont to answer.
Supalos went for a wall< in the back yard. He looked over the fence, and with horror beheld Stanley's beard and horns. .\ great rage seized Supalos. I
Supalos took the beard and lioru> and fled to his apartment, there to medi- | tate upon vengeance, I
As he passed the flat of ,Iohn and Gus Luntris he sraelle.d a feast In prepa- \ ration. He sneaked into the flat and found fried goat on the table. j
"Loafers," he cried, or Greek to that effect, "you cannot fool me. Even when he is cooked I know my goat by his odor." ' ¦¦
They did not even invite Supalos lt> help eat Stanley, bo he went to Judge • C'averly. :
"That goat could make more noise than a couple of bulldogs," Sui>alo8 : told the judge. "1 want a warrant for that Luntris Also I want advice whether I shnuld get another poat or a watclidog. They would not be so likely to eat a bulldog, but 1 like a goat better."
"You may have both the warrant and the advice," the judge said. "liet- ter pet a bulldog and tie Stanley's horns and whiskers on him. Then you will have a noiieatable watchdog-goat."
New York Is Filling Up With High Class Crooks
N|.M,V YOiMs.—Xew York is full of hijih class crooks and fiimllammers. lOurope has literally dumped her whole museum of artistic bla<'knmilers, swindlers and light lingered sentry into this country. With Monte Carlo,
I'aris and Ix)ndon dead, they have come here to nuiko a "liviirg." The ( afcs and lobster jialaces along Broad¬ way at night are now dotted with this new class, who aro the real elite in the ranks of unlawful money getters. There are among them he-diamonded adventuresses, comely as Cleopatra, with wita keen and ever alert for un¬ suspecting gentlemen who have weak¬ nesses for feminine charms; there are counterfeit counts and earls galore, all on the still hunt for the long green. rhe niglit lifi' of Europe Is under military regime—to be exact—bul to those who thrive in the shadows it is dead, ineet. Their mecca now ia Xew York. Here they knov/ there is alway.s a fresh crop of those individuals vulgarly known as "suckers." {
In one i)rominent liroadway lobster jialace the other night a detective wlio spends much of his time ferreting through the night life of thhs city counted half a dozen strangers, all foreigners, and all branded with that unmis¬ takable stamp of dishonesty that a good detective recognizes on sight. The women are more artful than the men in slipping into a niche In the night life. Most ot them are stunning of face and figure; their foreign inanner- isms are reaistles.s to many opulent individuals that frequent the cafes. The problem of these foreigners has already been felt by the police. Stool pigeons are daily bringing in reports of this and that new arrival, or how so-and-so was relieved of a quantity of money and was afraid or ashamed to report it to the police. I

Day!
Wichita, Kan.—A pitchfork, made tho day George Washington was elect¬ ed president the flrst time, is owned by a Kansas farmer. While it isn't In service, it could be used if the owner, W. R. Burrows, of Belle Plalne, so elected. The pitchfork was made at Dover, Del., by James Burrows, a grandfather of the Belle Plaine farm¬ er. In a letter Mr. Burrows says that the pitchfork, a two-tine affair, is such a curiosity that scores of people have visited hla home to see It He suggests that if any Wichita instltu- UoQ wants to place it on exhibition be would be wUlinK for others to see It

Omaha Officials Want to Know When Is a Child
OMAHA.—When is a child? The question has been put up to City Attorney Rine, the Omaha city commission, the Omaha Street Railway company and the teachers in Crelghton university and it has not yet been solved.
A city ordinance provides that the street railway company shall sell at certain reduced rates tickets good for the transportation of "children at tending school."
Several days ago a party of Crelghton university students boarded a Harney street car and tendered the Conductor the reduced rate tickets. The conductors refused to accept them, and the young men refused to either pay the full rata or get off. When the car arrived at the univer¬ sity grounds they got off and went their way.
Later a committee of the students called on the street railway oflScials and another committee went to see the city commissioners and then to City Attorney Itine.
Mr. Rine looked in the dictionary and found various definitions of tbe word "child."
"We come under every one of those definitions." argued the twenty-elght- year-old, six-foot "child" at the head of the committee.
And City Attorney Rine had to acknowledge that he waa right
"But the ordinance says these reduced fare tickets are good for children only," the lawyer reminded them.
'And if w-e are not children, then the dictionary ia wrong," quoted the six-foot "child." And so the case stands.
