TWENTY-EIGHTH YEAR. NO. 30. For Velveteen WHEN MAKING A VALANCE DESIGNED FOR THE NURSERY The first design bakeden is a simple coat and skirt in nut-brown velvetteen, very useful and very smart; the skirt is quite plain and a good walking length; the coat has a deep collar cut off square in front; the fastening is formed by tabs in which buttonholes are worked, and bone buttons. Velvetten tque trimmed with two ostrich tips. Materials required: 12 yards. 24 inches wide, 5 yards silk for lining coat, 4 yards saten for skirt. In the second picture we show a plain long coat in black. Our model is lined throughout with pale blue cashmere satin. This style is also suitable to be copied in seal plush, which Difficulties Not at All Insurmountable if They Are Properly Approached. The main difficulty in making a valance is to keep it in place without putting tacks into the furniture or having it on narrow strips that pull out from under the mattress. One woman has hit upon a plan of having heavy unbleached sheeting cut just the size of the bed, or a little within the line of the sides. The sheeting is shrunk before being used. The valance is sewed to it on each side and across the end. The cover is then spread over the springs and under the mattress, which holds it firmly in place. If the valance is of thin material, that needs frequent washing, it is a good idea to put it into a narrow band, provided with buttonholes at intervals close enough to prevent sagging. Buttons are sewed to the sheeting in places to correspond. Fillet for the hair made of gold cloth sewn with turquoise. The siggrette is white. To Clean Felt Hats First, all the trimming is removed and the felt given a thorough brushing. From a hardware dealer purchase, for a few cents, a sheet of the finest sandpaper made. Out into piece around a convenient-sized block of wood, be sandpapering the hat, being careful always to rub in the direction of the nap. Continue this process, using a new piece of sandpaper when necessary, until the felt begins to take on a new and clean appearance. When the felt becomes clean the uap is slightly dampened and the felt pressed with a moderately hot iron. The Newcast Tea Cosies. Quite the newest tea cosies are fascinating creations heavily embroidered in an open pattern to show off a silk lining of a gay color. That the cosy may fit over any sized teapot, even the most capacious, it has and ends pieces lt in, and these are of plain 10cm, unadorned like the rest, so that here the colored dinges not show through. The seams of the cosy are covered by a handsome white cord, artistically knotted here and there to give a pretty effect. THE GAZETTE is now so much used for long coats. Materials required: 8½ yards velvetteen 72 inches wide, 6 yards lining 44 inches wide. The third costume shown is in laurel leaf green. The skirt has a pane front and back, and at sides is trimmed with a band of burnished gold and green trimming. The coat has a vest of the same trimming; a band of it is taken from each side the frost and raised high in the centre back. Hat of folded satin trimmed with long grey wings. Materials required. 12½ yards 24 inches wide, 4 yards trimming, 5½ yards satin for lining coat, 4 yards sateen for skirt lining, 4 buttons. Pretty Things, That Will Properly Set Forth the Apartments of the Little Folke. So many charming things are made for the nursery nowadays that it is a delight for young mothers to set out to furnish the apartment devoted to the little folks. Sets of basin and pitcher in neat enameled stands are decorated with Kate Greenaway figures. Bassinets like large market baskets having stout handles and lined with silk and lace, are very convenient with silk and lace, and very convenient when moving the wee baby from room to room. A stand of enameled wicker has four trays for holding baby's clothes. It is very compact when shut, but when required these may all be opened at the same time by pushing out different ways. Small clothes-trees of white painted wood are copies in miniature of what the grown-ups use. A basket, with compartments to hold six small bowls, is handy when dressing the Infant. The porcelain bowls are marked safety pins, sponge, soap, nipples, etc. Some Uses for Matting Straw matting may be put to many uses besides the conventional one of covering floors. Table covers may be made of the fine, closely woven Japanese matting, hemed at each end. As a finish to the lower part of a wall matting which is not too heavy serves quite as well as burial and is a change from the more usual covering. Settee cushions may be made, or at least covered, with fine, pliable kind of matting, to match the strip on the porch floor. Window shades and awning to keep the sun off, which are tied back or rolled up when not in use, are also practical made of matting. They are hemmed top and bottom and hung upon rings at the top, which in turn are hung on little brass banks screwed into the window frame or porch beam. Bordered Foulards There is nothing smarter and few things more handsome than the new bordered foulards brought in for spring. Many of the most attractive pieces have borders that take up more than twenty inches of the forty-five or forty-six-inch width of the silk. These wide borders usua, have a band of solid color four or five inches of the silk. The rest of the border may be of Persian design in lovely green, blue, rose, lavender, gray or other color scheme, to harmonize with the ground of the rest of the silk. Empire Waist Line. The straight, narrow lines not over- accentuated and the shortened waist line are very pretty in the one-piece trotting frocks of linen, silk, etc., which are being made for southern wear, though the empire waist line must always be handled very carefully in connection with a street frock if it is not to give the frock an air suitable to the boudoir rather than the street. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. SUMMARY OF A WEEK'S EVENTS Latest News' of Interest Boiled Down for the Busy Man. WASHINGTON. The text of a new treaty with Japan, intended to replace that of 1894 and drawn with the special design of eliminating the restrictions upon immigration contained in that treaty, was laid before the senate by President Taft. Overcome by his emotions, and weakened by the illness with which he was stricken during the last session of congress, Senator Tillman sank sobbing into his seat shortly after beginning a speech in the United States senate in eulogy of the late Senators Alexander S. Clay of Georgia and Jonathan P. Dolliver of Iowa. Failure of the Canadian reciprocity agreement to pass the senate will force President Taft to call an extra session of congress, as the administration is determined to press the agreement. This declaration was made by Senator Smoot of Utah after a conference with the president at the White House over pending legislation. Senators Lodge and Root were present also. Senator Aldrich, chairman of the senate finance committee, and one-of-the framers of the present tariff law, has sent a letter from Georgia, where he is seeking to regain his health, to President Taft, stating that he is in agreement confirming the reciprocal agreement between Canada and the United States. The east-bound Southern Pacific China and Japan fast mall was derailed near Palisade, New, and fifteen persons were injured. It is supposed the wreck was caused by the engine and mall car breaking a rail. A tablet marking the place where one of the most sanguinary engagements of the Revolutionary war was fought was unveiled at Savannah, Ga., February 22. The tablet is at the point of Spring Hill redoubt, around which American and British soldiers battled October 9, 1779. Two of the most powerful battleships ever conceived in the mind, of man will be added to the United States navy. The naval appropriation bill as agreed to provides for the construction of the two battleships, two fleet colliers, eight torpedo-boat destroyers and four submarine torpedo-boats. Charles F. Walsh of San Diego, Cal., took his wife and two children for an outing in his new Curtiss type airplane at Dominguez field. The machine landed half a mile from the starting place without a jar. George B. Cox, banker and politician of Cincinnati, was charged with perjury in an indictment returned by the Hamilton county grand jury. The charge is made as a result of a comparison of the records of the 1906 grand jury with testimony given by John H. Gibson, former county treasurer. Ap explosion in the purifying plant of the Laclede Gas Light company at St. Louis injured nine workmen. The walls of the buildings were blown down. Mrs. Agnes Orner was placed under arrest at El Paso, Tex., following her return from the funeral of her little daughter. A considerable quantity of arsenic was found in the child's stom- . . . The Pacific steamship Banilo Juarez, which has been plying between Mazatlan, Lower California, and Inglaterra, steamed into the bay at the former port a veritable mass of flame and smoke. One hundred and twelve passengers on board jumped into the shallow water of the bay and saved their lives, but lost all their baggage and other effects: Governor Carroll vetoed the Oregon plan which the Iowa legislature passed recently. He hailed he regarded the plan as a violation of the constitution. The Democrats, who voted for the bill in a body, will make every effort to pass it over the veto. Mrs. Florence G. Rawn, widow of Ira G. Rawn, former president of the Monon system and vice president of the Illinois Central railroad, has brought suit at Chicago for $175,000 against nine insurance companies having policies on her husband's life. Lieutenant Groff has exhibited at Vienna university a new photograph apparatus which photograph objects at great distances, but which at the same time indicates the distance of the object from the camera by means of parallel lines on the plate. "Millions of pounds of butter and 60,000 cases of eggs in cold storage which are usually consumed before this time of the year are still unsold." That was the statement made by Herbert A. Emerson, president of the United States Packing company of Chicago, who will testify before the subcommittee of the state senate committee on live stock and dairy ing. The convention of the Presbyterian Brotherhood of America opened in St. Louis with a very large attendance. The torpedo boat destroyer Monghan, named for the heroic ensign who was killed in Samoa, was launched at Newport News, Va. Theodore Roosevelt visited Chicago to speak before the Harvard club and to deliver the ordinance at the Union League club's celebration of Washington's birthday. The Supreme court of the United States in interpreting the Heppburn rate law of 1906, declared that only money and no advertising can be accepted by interstate railroads in payment for transportation. It is given out by friends of Lina Cavalier, that the singer has succeeded in obtaining a financial settlement from her husband, Robert Wintroph Chanler, and that court proceedings have been dropped. Doctor Oswald of the staff of the Glasgow Insane asylum, makes the announcement of an important discovery which promises a certain cure for mental disease. The substance was perfected by research experiments in Germany and Glasgow and when injected into the blood of insane persons it renders them immune from further attack. PERSONAL Charles D. Norton, secretary to President Taft, will be vice-president of the First National bank of New York upon his retirement from the office he now holds. It is understood the position has been offered to him and he has accepted it. Mrs. Arthur Novin, wife of the American, composer, has been appointed a bacteriologist at the Pasteur institute in Paris. Prof. T. N. Carver, the Harvard economist and sociologist, in a statement published opposes the recent argument for large families made by President Emeritus Charles W. Ellot of Harvard. Martin W. Littleton, newly elected Democratic representative from Theodore Roosevelt's home district, announces his candidacy for the United States senate from New York, to succeed Chanuncy M. Depew. Mrs. Ellen Colaf, widow of former Vice-President Schuyler Colaf, who is critically ill at her home in South Bend, Ind., is gradually falling. She is seventy-five years old and is suffering from general debility. Charles M. Schwan returned to New York on the Mauretania from his mid-winter vacation in Europe a more pronounced optimist as to the worldwide business outlook for the year than he was when he left New York three months ago. Mrs. Medill McCormick of Chicago, daughter of the late Senator Mark Hanna, will establish in Washington a home where working women and girls can find comfortable lodgings at a minimum charge. Bill Lang, who once held the heavy, weight championship of Australia, was no match for Sam Langford, the American colored pugilist, in a scheduled twenty-round bout at London. Langford won in the sixth round, when Lang was disqualified, but the contest could not have gone much longer, as Lang was almost out when he committed the foul. FOREIGN. The government bill to abolish the veto power of the British house of lords was introduced in the house of commons by Premier Asquith. No one professes to see the outcome of the constitutional battle. The liberals are keeping their intentions to themselves. The pope has resumed his audiences, having fully recovered from the recent attack of influenza. In a review of the crisis in Mexico made at Paris, Jose José Limantour, minister of finance in the cabinet of President Diaz, declared that the only basis for peace was that the insurgents lay down their arms pending negotiations with the government, which on its part, should grant a reform of the evils that made the revolution possible. The relations between the Portuguese government and the navy have reached almost the breaking point again, as a result of a demand by the navy for the relinquishment to the command of the battlefield Altrante Rels of Capt. Jose Correjo, one of the naval heroes of the revolution. The viceroy of Manchuria estimates that the fatalities in Manchuria from the baltic plague already have reached 65,000, and the foreign officer believes that inside the great wall there have been 1,000 more deaths. UNCLE SAM'S PURE FOOD EXPERT AND HIS FIANCEE DR. WILEY MISS KELTON PHOTO BY CLEARSON DR. HARVEY W. WILEY, chief of the bureau of chemistry of the department of agriculture, has been the subject of much good-natured joking ever since the announcement of his engagement to Miss Anna C. Kelton. At the same time, the government's pure food expert is being warmly congratulated, for Miss Kelton, who is a resident of Washington, is most highly esteemed by her numerous friends. The wedding will take place in the near future. GRAVITY IS A PUSH Ohio Physicist Gives Old Newton Theory a Jolt. Assumes Ether to Be Endowed With Vast Kinetic Energy Relative to Atoms—Dr. Brush Explains His Idea of Gravitation. St. Paul, Minn.—The Newtonian theory of gravitation that has stood for ages was upset when Dr. Charles F. Brush, Cleveland, O. one of the leading physicists of the country, ascribed the falling propensities of matter to a "pushing" property within itself derived from the ether through which it falls, rather than to a "pulling" power from the earth on the falling body. Doctor Brush established the converse theory that the energy exhibited in the gravitation is fully restored to the ether when the body is raised against/ the gravitation attraction. Doctor Brush assumes the ether to be endowed with a vast intrinsic kinetic energy, which is in wave form and is translated to the atoms or molecules. In his paper on the "Kinetic Theory of Gravitation," read before the physics section of the scientists' convention, Doctor Brush, after disclosing at length the origin of the energy acquired by a falling body, concludes that the gathered energy comes from the ether through which the body, falls, "Conversely," said Doctor Brush, "equivalent energy is restored to the ether when the body is raised against gravitation attraction. "The ether is assumed to be endowed with vast intrinsic kinetic energy in wave form. The waves are of such low frequency, or otherwise of such character, that they pass through the bodies without obstruction other than that concerned in gravitation. They are propagated in straight lines in every conceivable direction, so that the wave energy is isotropic, being in this respect like radiation in the interior space of a furnace with uniformly heated walls. Distribution of the ether's intrinsic energy is uniform throughout the universe as modified by the presence of matter. Any kind of ether waves capable of exerting motive action on the atoms or molecules of matter will fill the requirements. "Atoms are imagined to be continually buffeted in all directions by the ether waves in paths almost infinitesimally short, but without collision because neighboring atoms follow very nearly paralleled paths. The moving atoms are likened to particles of a precipitate suspended in turbulent water. "Each atom or molecule is regarded as a center of activity, due to its kinetic energy of translation derived directly from the ether. There is continual absorption and restitution of the ether's energy, normally equal in amount. But the ether is permanently wobbed of as much of its energy as it represented by the mean kinetic energy of the atom. This energy deficiency in the ether is not wholly local, but extends indefinitely into space, diminishing in strength as the square of the distance increases. "A body of matter is pictured as casting in effect a spherical energy shadow consisting on the sum of the shadows of its constituent cells, the depth or intensity of the shadow varying with the inverse square of the distance from the center of the body. Another body at any given point is a given shape and the two shadows cast by each body being totally obliterated by the other wave causing from that direction the expansion of the shedding effect. --- depending directly on the mass of the shielding body. "Of the several components into which the composite motion of each atom can be resolved, that one lying in the direction of an attracting body will be the greatest because the waves from that direction being partially intercepted by the attracting body, are weakest, and the atom will be pushed in that direction by the superior waves behind it. If free to fall, the atom will continually absorb more energy from the stronger waves behind it than it restores to the weaker waves in front, and will thus acquire additional kinetic energy of translation in the line of fall, used directly by the attracting body involved, e. e. by the distance moved. Conversely, if the atom be forced from the attracting body restitution of energy will exceed absorption, and the energy expended in moving the atom against attraction will be transferred to the other. "It will be seen that gravitation is a push toward the attracting body and not a pull. It is clear, also, that the velocity which a falling body can acquire tends asymptotically to a limit, which is the velocity of the other waves which push; the velocity of light. If transverse waves are involved." Pittsburg Begins Odd Municipal Experiment in Training Boys for Better Citizenship. Pittsburg, Pa.—An old municipal experiment in training for better citizenship has begun in this county with the goal of acres of farm land, on which 500 boys, all wards of the Juvenile court, shall be taught close to nature, to become good men. A committee of prominent citizens, led by David B. Oliver, formerly controller of public schools of the city and a brother of Senator George T. Oliver, originated the idea, and aided by the county commissioners, is carrying it out. Mr. Oliver, who is one of the wealthiest men in Pittsburg, has found that frequently the "bad boys" make the best men, and he is giving his time and money to the project, which really marks a new step in the care of Juvenile court children. The only noteworthy institution like it is an industry. N. Y., but that is a state institution. On the land, which is thirty miles from Pittsburg, will be built cottages which will accommodate twenty boys. A head farmer will look after the youngsters. The present plan for the home is to build a central colony of five cottages around machine, carpenter and blacksmith shops, where boys who want to learn trades will be grouped. Removed, however, from this central group will be fifteen other cottages. They will be occupied by boys who want to be farmers. It is not the intention to segregate the boys, but to keep them apart as much as possible. Half of each day will be devoted to school and half to work. Of course, a time will be set aside for playing. To still further enjoy on the family idea there will be a number of school buildings constructed at different places on the farm. Each of the school buildings will accommodate a school building. It will be so arranged that children from probably four cottages will go to each school. Thus the form will correspond to a community and the school largely to nursery schools. "Sport" Continues to Amuse People of Southern France, Despite Efforts of Officials. Paris.—The extent to which the practice or "sport" of "bull-fighting still exists in the south of France, despite all the efforts of the authorities to stamp it out, is little known by the rest of the world. A meeting was recently held at Beziers of those interested in the spectacles and a protest drawn up against the bill of the minister of justice which provides for the punishment by fine and imprisonment of those connected with bull-fighting. It was developed at this meeting that there are 27 associations for the promotion of bull-fighting in the south of France, with a total membership of 24,000. According to the protest the bill would interfere with the favorite pastime of these and many more people, would be a check to the liberties of the south and would be against the interests of the country. Nevertheless there is an excellent chance of the bill becoming law. "News Girl" 70 Years Old. New York—Anna Eliza Beach, who is said to be the oldest "newsgirl" in the United States, finished her fifteenth year as a 70-year old, lives in Caldwell, N.J. She covers a route of eight miles, serving 100 customers with the local paper. It is the purpose of the commission to keep from the home any semblance of a reform school or prison, so that the children who leave can go out into the world without any handicap of any kind in the form of a past to live down. The only gully in the nearly one thousand acres will be dammed up and there in the summer time the children will be taken from Brush Creek. The swimming hole will be shaded by trees on the slopes leading to it and no sulphur from mines will mar its clearur. Anonymous Letter Received by Aged. Man Containing $500 for Team Stolen in 1865. Lancaster, Pa.—An unusual occurrance took place at Washington borough when Rev. H. D. Boughter, pastor of the Church of H. D. Boughter, handed at his rectory a letter by a man and told to hand it some time during the day to Urlah Douglas, now nearly eighty years old, and a retired resident. Rev. Mr. Boughter went to Mr. Douglas's home and the letter was opened. To their surprise it contained five new $100 bills. A note on the inside said the sender had done Mr. Douglas a wrong forty-five years, and here, was money enough to pay for it with interest, and that he would hear from him in a few days. Mr. Douglas recalls that in 1865 a team had been stolen from him, and from which nothing had ever been heard, and it is believed this is the man who handed over the letter. He had purchased the team with bounty money received from the government after the close of the war, and while at the picnic at HIllgate the team was stolen and nothing but the lines left. The supposition is that the man who handed the letter to Rev. Mr. Boughter is a wealthy ranch owner of the west, as several young men about that time went west and have made good. Mr. Douglas is an invalid and can use the money. \ 2 oO THE EVERY SATURDAY | ‘SUBSCRIPTION RATES (in Advance) One Year...c.ceceeeetee eee SISO Bix Montha...ssscyecsccssecs 100 Three Menthe... sccesscsces 35O- ‘Subscribers ‘are requested te re ‘mit By postoffice money er der oF registered letter.

BORAH'S "GRANDSTAND PLAY.” See ga ee ee eee ene e tion, Secretary of State Elitlu Root made a speech that showed so much of a leaning toward the South. and auch little sympathy for our struggle for our righté and privileges under the U. S. constitution, that ‘we ‘certainly never expected him to take the ad- vanced ‘stand he has, recently, in a speech on the Borah’ resolution -pro- viding for the amending of the U. 8. constitution so as ‘to permit.the por ular election of U. S. senators,- with the varlous states (instead of con- gress) controlling the elections. Sen- ator Root is one of the strongest men in American public life today. and ‘is a “power on any side of a question or contest, In or out of Congress or the courts. He and Senator Curtis certainly “let the light In" on that res- olution. and opened’ the eyes of the whole country to the fact that “spine: Jess” Republicans af the north, led on dy Senator Borat and others of his Kind,. colleagues, were about to turo ‘over fo the South, with the ald of his resolution, the control also of all fed- eral elections held fii that section of the country. This would enable It to complete its work of disfranchisement of Southern Afro-Americans, without ‘even the present formality of placing upon the statutes of various southern states unconstitutional laws that may soine day in the dim, misty, future be declated null and vold by ihe U. S. Supreme "Court. Senator Borah’s “grandstand play,” In hs speech last week, is made very plain in hls am- Diguous statements, one of which is that “the ‘northern states have ex: hibited the same race profudice that has been shown In the Southland.” Some one ought to impress the Sen- ator with the fnet that hie statement, quoted above, like others he made, is not wholly true either as.to,the Kidd or the nuniber of.prejudices, or as 0| tho degree. In the north even yet, it 4s a mild color—prejudice as com: pared with the much stronger color | and race préjudice, and caste of the South: “The same race prejudice” is NOT exhibited in the north and South | —not In a thousand different ways | and: things, nor in anything lke the | same degree. But Mr. Borah of idaho | was “playlog to the grand-stand.” north and South; and “caught” many | very mauy: even some unthinking Ne~! groes. “The senator also contended that as his resolution stands, notwith- standing It gives the State legislators controt of Senatorial elections, Con- | gress still would have the right to In- terfere in protection of any citizen whose right of franchiso-had been in- terfered with. He also declared that if Congress had power under the ex- isting provision of the: Constitution giving Congresstonal control over Seu- atorial elections it should be exer- clsed. “If that right exists the North | has the greater obligation under it pecauso It makes claim to It. We az- port the power, but we admit that. we | haven't had the moral courage to ex- ercise it,” safd“Senator Borah.

M. C. A. MEMBER: Of the Race ‘in Cleveland, Now a Resident. of the South, Protests Against a Separate or Branch * Y. MLC. A. for Cleveland ae oe Mabelle. Okla., Feb. 14, 1911. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, The! Gazette, Dear’ Sir:—The. attempt. to create a sentiment for a Colored Y. M. C, A. in Cleveland, interests me’ very much. Although { have not been in Cleveland for five years 1 stilt rexard it as my home: 60 anything to the advantage or detriment of my people there engages. my closest attention and intensest interest. Seven years as both independent and Church mis- slonary has brought ine into the moxt intimate relationship: with both white and Colored people in ail sections of this country, .and especially inthe South where segregation ‘is the rule. And [ have found that-where injustice is greatest and where. race ‘strife 1s Keenest, there the separation of the sraces had been most complete. I have told groups of our people stories of the |disasters, catastrophles, and utter }desolation of certain people: and these groups evinced the utmost pity and even offered their own help, - some- times at great sacrifice, But when they found that these were “only” white Uhad-spoken of fies. The same ox- periment found the same result: when the Taces were interchanged. What was the cause of this utter lack of fellow-feeling? Jt was the absence of knowledge, ond of the other. No. in- tercourse had ever taught ihe one Fracé the better qualities’ of the other. On the other hand even in devil-born Mississippi, ‘where the races are intl: ‘mately associated oven In any capac- ity, the liveliest interest is manifested jby" each race in the welfare of the other. It is therefore in’ my judg- ment best to prevent as far as poss ble ‘any discrimination or ‘separation from. the stronger race. Only the better, class of our young men will [seek or gain admission to the Central for branch. ¥. M. C..A's. If these are fathered together and separated from the better class of white young men, the whites will never become ac quainted with our better element but ‘will still, judge our race by the con- ‘spleuous "class of street loafers. Mixed schools “and mixed éversthing ‘is the only way to show what is best in us. In the South conditions de- mand| separate schools and “jinn erow" accommodations becatige both races have (as a mass)" lead: them: ‘selves to believe In such. things. (But we are not going to stand: It jalways here.) In ‘the North every step toward separation Is a step back- ward and downward. Moreover that Fetards our advancement in the South. T have gone into places noted for cruelty to ou people. After a time ‘many have said in answer to, my query: Why do you treat me 80 dif. Terently ‘from’ others of. our people? Because you are so different. But this was the real reason: they seldom or never came In contact or intimate Felationsbip with the better class, They dealt strictly with the- lower class. ‘They compared me with my inferfors in myypwn race and not with the host of my-equals and superiors, ‘And whatever: success Ihave had I. attribute in no small: measure to my assotiation and training in the moxed publie schools of Cleveland and -the mixed.

On the other hand, Kauffman {sa young man and a powerful big -one, full of energy, ‘speedy. for his size, and a great hitter, besides being game and willing. He is said to be improving right along in his boxing. He éan probably whip any of the White fighters now before the public, but ff he and Johnson were to be matched: to battle: within the next 60 days the champion would win handily, Jim Corbett’s opinion, to’ thes contrary notwithstanding. * Johtigon Is too fast and too skillful a ring general for the Cailfornia youth.

Yours With 6 j PORO A WolfinSheep's Clothing A TRUE STORY OF THE SECRET SERVICE By COL. H. C. WHITLEY Former Chief United States Secret Service Development of the Argentine Lines T IMES were pretty likely about Washington during President Grant's administration. The great, the near great and the shabby gentile politicians were to be dally met with each had an ane to give him a busy day for adventurers and sharppers. Every device that human ingenuity could invent was in vogue for money making purposes. Men of respectability when at home often turned crooks after sojourning at the nation's capitol for a time. The war had left its demoralizing influence upon many and the opportunities for acquiring wealth were numerous and varied. For a long time before Congress took his seat in the White House, there had been a looseness in the administration of government affairs resulting in organized frauds that would not be tolerated in this day. The Credit Mobilier conspiracy, the whisky ring and many other monumental steals were being carried on in high-up official and private circles. The big fellows set the pace and the smaller crooks loitering about the city felt quite safe in (taking a hand in) the business of the vices resorted to by the lesser fellows were quite ridiculous. I will disinter one of these schemes for the purpose of exhibiting the folly of some of the litters of that day. Shortly after, President Grant's in Augmentation in the spring of 1873 he sent a messenger with a note requesting me to call at once at the White House. On entering his office I found him at his desk. He pointed to a nearby chair and bade me be seated. Reaching into a drawer of his desk he took out two long black cigars, and handing me one of them he left the end of the other in put it between his feet. Straightening back in his chair, the big black cigar was pointed upward at an angle of about forty-five degrees. As the smoke curled lazily above his head I saw that there was something in his manner indicating that his usually placid temper was riled. Pickling up a package of letters from his desk he turned towards me and said: "Here, Colonel, is a matter that needs your careful attention. During the last few days I have been receiving these letters from the other person's investigation at once. The persons engaged in this work must be punished It is an outrage. It is probable that there is more than one person in the scheme." President Grant spoke with great earnestness, and I saw that he was not a little disturbed and that his idea was to let no guilty man escape. The circulars he handed me were printed in letter form and had been sent through the mails to many postmasters throughout the south and west. The circulars read as follows. I give them verbatim. Executive Mansson, Washington. Oct. 12th, 1872. Memorandum of conversation between the president and his secretary. Secretary—I wish to refer this telegram of Senator Morton's to the president. To the President: A conspiracy has been formed to overrun southern Illinois, Indiana and Ohio and to keep the colored vote from the polls in the southern states by increasing money spent vote in Indiana. Men and money are needed. I send a man to you who has been in their council. O. P. Morton. President—Yes, I have thought that matter all over, and had a long talk with the man the senator sent.

President—Very well, I will take the responsibility. Have Captain C. Sellette taken to go west and south with funds and organizes. The more of a good organization will deter lawless bodies from attempting to defraud the people at the polls. Additional conversation, March 24th. 1873. Secretary—Mr. President, have you determined how you will reimburse Mr. Cook for the money furnished last October? President—Yes, I have. The bishop has suggested Rev. J. Hale Barney to act as secretary in the matter. Appoint him immediately, and as our mails are so large and go to clerks to see them, you will see them. We see them, you will have all letters the subject addressed to. to him.

THE NICE MAN WAS ARRESTED AS HE WAS MAILING A LETTER. HE WAS SEEN TO SLIP INTO THE FRONT ROOM. Confidential Circular No. 10. Executive Mansion, Washington, April 5th, 1873. "The annexed conversations are submitted to the friends of the president in confidence. Our friends can, address Rex Hale Harney, Hale Harney, immediately accuse him of betaball. Any one having conscious convictions against contributing need only silently decline. The president has acted in good faith; and confidently relies upon an active and cheerful assistance. Suppose nothing had been done and the state of affairs existing in Louisiana had more extensively prevailed, what would have been the result? Needless to say, views and act as your judgment dictates, remembering this subject is confidential and known only to three persons besides the president and that whatever is sent should be in currency in the enclosed envelope. With the above circular was also enclosed the following letter for return after being filled out: "Rev. J. Ialo Barney, "Ex-Secretary, Etc. "Washington, D. C. "Sir: Please find enclosed ten dollar in currency, which you can apply M THE DETECTIVE EXAMINED THE LOCK In any way you think necessary for the good of the cause. "Yours, truly." With this letter was an envelope addressed as follows: "Rev. J. Hale Barney, Secretary, Securities Wife." It is scarcely necessary to say that the foregoing circulars had been conceived for the purpose of obtaining contributions from the appointees of the president. The Rev. J. Hale Barney was discovered in the person of one Colonel Pardel, who had recklessly assumed the role of a clerical gentleman for the purpose of moking money. The president was the source of great annoyance to the president, General Babcock and Senator Morton. Although the scheme was a foolish one, it was one of the boldest swindles of a peculiary and political character that ever came up in Washington. It involved no less than three kinds of crime—using the mails for fraudulent purposes, forgery and obtaining under false pretenses. The president was the indignant. It was not alone a reflection upon him personally, but upon his administration. Many of the postmasters in the south and west receiving these circles remitted the amount called for ing. the fiscal year 1909-10 the Great Southern railway opened to traffic 119 miles of new road and derived receipts from traffic amounting to $22,350,000. The Pacific railway—including the marvelous trans-Andean line across the Uspilata pass—earned about $21,000,000 and added 448 to its mileage. The so-called Western railway added 60 miles. The Central railway increased its length 136 miles and its at once. Others were surprised and doubtful as to their genuineness and forwarded them to the president with a letter of inquiry. Taken altogether it was a most remarkable affair it maintained and carried out in a reckless manner. The officers and detectives sent to capture the schemer furnishes a chapter of racy reading. It was discovered that a lady who rented furnished rooms at No. 426 51th street had sometime prior to the discovery of the forgeries received a letter from a man signing himself as a Methodist minister and that he would be absent from the city much of the time attending to the duties of his circuit, but he wanted to hire a lower front room in her house for office purposes and a place to sleep and the delivery of his correspondence. His explanation and subsequent retaliary of the Christian Brotherhood. The lady thought it was a rare opportunity to secure an occupant of distinction. She had great confidence in Methodist ministers as she leaned that way herself, and she answered favorably. In a few days a large trunk was forwarded by express. It had an aperture in its top through which letters could be dropped. There was also forwarded two large cards that were printed by Jake Barney, Executive Secretary of the Christian Brotherhood," one to be bung upon the door, "be other in the window of the room. Money was sent to pay a month's rent in advance. The midname was delighted to rent her rooms to such a nice man. She had always maintained a highly respectable place and intended to keep it so. The trunk was put into one corner of the room hired, and all a increased room was dropped through the hole in the top of the trunk pending the arrival of his reverence. The old lady was wholly unsuspl THE NICE MAN WAS ARRESTED AS HE WAS MAILING A LETTER clous. A Methodist minister was above reproach with her. The back room adjoining the one engaged by the reverend was already occupied by a quiet and unobstructive gentleman who paid his rent regularly and went and came at his pleasure. He, too, was above suspicion. There was also a very nice young man occupying a room upstairs. He was always busy writing and attending to his own business. Many letters postmarked at different towns of the west and south addressed to Rev. J. Hale Barney were being delivered daily. These were put in the trunk." The detective detailed to unearth the fraud rigged himself out in a suit of genteel black clothes and presented himself at 426 Sixth street. Here he was kindly received by the nice old lady. She was polite, but a little suspicious at first. It did not, however, take the smooth-tongued detective long to calm her fears and secure a room. He was not particular about the prince's quiet nature, her house was a quiet place. He was a law student and did not like to be disturbed while engaged in his studies. At the first opportunity the detective slipped into the front room and examined the lock on the trunk with the aperture in its top. It was an ordinary affair and the officer estimated revenue was $22,900,000. The Entre-Rios railways were extended by 333 miles and their gross receipts were about $2,000,000. This makes a total of about 1,100 miles added to the railway mileage, with gross earnings for four of the lines amounting to $68,250,000. In 1909, according to the "Statesman's Year Book," there were 16,606 miles of railways open in the republic, as compared with 15,100 miles in Mexico (in September, 1908) and over 11,000 in Pennsylvania. easily secured a key to fit it. He had several circular printed in face smile of the original to be used as decoys. These were postmarked and given the appearance of having been sent by postmasters in the south. Some of them contained marked money. Excuses were made in others; money would be sent in course of time. Some of these letters were signed, "A Friend of the Cause," "A Sympathizer," "Depend Upon Me," etc. A letter carrier was made use of and the detective was kept posted in regard to the delivery of the letters. When the "nice man" occupying the room back of the parlor was absent the letters contained in the trunk were examined by the detective. A short time after the return the letters were seen to slip into the parlor through the rear door. The detective again examined the trunk. The letters were gone. Shortly afterwards the "nice man" occupying the room back of the parlor was arrested while in the act of dropping letters into the postoffice. These letters were discovered to be circulates addressed to postmasters and others. The "nice man" arrested was searched and the marked money placed in the letters by the detective was found in his pocket. It was now certain that Rev. J. Hale Harney and the individual arrested were one and the same. The silent young man upstairs was suspected and arrested. His room was searched and a large bed was opened to house belongings addressed to postmasters were found. The plot, although silly in its conception, was catechy because of its boldness. The "nice man" caught was a person of considerable prominence. He had served as a colonel of a regiment during the Civil war and was a gallant fighter. The young fellow upstairs was a printer and had done the work on the circulars. Both of the schemers were HE WAS SEEN TO SLIP INTO THE FRONT ROOM. convicted and sentenced to do time in the penitentiary. This was only one of the many bold schemes practised in our capital city by persons maintaining the outward appearance of eminent respectability. (Copyright, 1910, by W. G. Chapman) How to Keep Young. The fact that one has lived 60 or even for 80 years, is no reason why he should be old. When Longfellow was well along in years, he hood as a rose and an amber, but he was a rose, an rose, an admirer asked him one day how it was that he was able to keep so vigorous and to write so beautifully. Pointing to a blossoming apple tree near by the poet replied: "That apple tree is very old, but I never saw prettier blossoms upon it than those which it now bears. The tree grows a little new wood each year, and I see a little new wood each year that those blossoms come. Like the apple tree, I try to grow a little new wood each year." And what Longfellow did we all ought to do. We cannot stop the flight of time; we cannot head off the one event that happeneth to all; but we can keep on "growing new wood" and in that way keep on blossoming until the end.—Magazine of Mysteries. The total area of the republic is 1,135,840 square miles and the estimated population in 1908 was 6,489,023—or 5.7 per square mile. This is an area almost equal to a third of that of the United States, with about one-tenth of the population of this country, while the total railway mileage of the United States in 1908 was 233,678.

Proof to Show That They Practice the Science of Deduction With the Profundity of a Sherlock Holmes. Bentrice, Neb. A peaceful, white-breasted physician of this town has been directly instrumented in the investigation of more than 160 murderers, train robbers and other desperate lawbreakers. Dr. J. B. Fulton has fassed his 78th birthday. Meeting him at the front door of his cottage, where he lives with his deaf sister, it would not be easy for you to believe that his name is the title of a half dozen states. But speak to the old gentleman about his favorite hobby and see his eyes light up with pleasure; persuade him to take you through the bloodhound farm, which takes up almost an acre back of the cottage and contains upwards of 20 skilled man hunters; watch him as he searches for treasure and you will length to understand. Poll, a 5-year-old Cuban bloodhound, and Cheyenne, a 4-year-old English bloodhound, were brought out of their kennels by the trainer. The yistler, who had in his youth watched with awe the great red knight and the small black knight" shows attractive, was first struck with the smallness and apparent docility of the two hounds. "We usually run a Cuban dog in a team with an English, hound," Doctor Fulton remarked. "The two breeds are of about equal ability as far as allowing a scenic view of the dog, but they are more active and energetic on a trail, while the English gambler of the team, if he is well The Dogs and Their Trainer. trained, usually seems able to make finer deductions—he's more logical. "You spoke of the dogs being logical—when is it that they have to make deductions?" Doctor Fulton was asked. "Well, in a case like one that happened out in a Nobraska town a few years ago. I forget the place. A house had been burglarized in a small town, the robber getting away with several hundred dollars, and leaving nothing from which we could give the scent to the hounds. The owner of the house knew all the people who had been in the room from whom he got the scent, the last three dogs, except the robber. We got all those people there, and gave the order to the dog: 'Findhim!' "The Cuban hound immediately picked up a scent that took him to the wife of the owner of the house, who was in the next room. But the English dog went sniffing around, got acquainted with the scents of the people there, then found a trail different from any of them. It led to a negro's house out in the country and the afterward confessed to the erde "There is an old idea that a man can shake off the dogs by walking in running water. About ten years ago two men broke out of the Beatrice jail. They followed the bed of the creek four miles and then confidently went to the creek, and one dog on each side, followed it down until the place where the men came out. Then—this will show you how keen is the scent of the hounds—put them in a buggy and drove along the road. As long as the men we were hunting had taken the dogs, the dogs sat still, the miles, the dogs sat still, Intent and watchful. As soon as we reached the spot where they dived into a cornfield the dogs jumped out of the buggy. They had scented the trail from the bed of the buggy. "A trail becomes hard to follow after about 50 hours have clapped, but after the followed trails much older than that. "We ran a horsehistle who had made away with a fine pair of mares in South Dakota, four years ago, 250 miles before we captured him and the horses. It took nine days to catch him, the two hounds steadily following the scent for that length of time. Then about eight years ago two of my dogs, Joe-Joe and Miss bla, blew up old hills. Wyoming to run down a band of train robbers who had taken $10,000 from a Missouri Pacific train. Joe-Joe got lost out there and was never found. Probably he was, stolen. But 'Miss Columbia' went on and managed to capture two of the robbers." A New Street Danger New York—runaway truck horses have long been a *menace* in city streets, but the big auto trucks provide a much greater danger. One of them got away from the chauffeur in New York the other day. The ponderer vehicle upset and smashed a touring car, broke an electric light pole, narrowly missed several automobiles and created a panic among pedestrians before it smashed into a brick wall and stopped. Indians of the Upper Amazon have developed "wireless telegram-ay" by means of drums made of hollow logs tuned to varying pitches. GREAT MILL WHEEL IN MAINE One of the Largest in the State Hiden den Awais in a pictureque little Dale Gorham, Me.—What is believed to be one of the largest mill wheels in the state of Maine is hidden away in a picturequesto deli, a short distance from the main street in Gorham. The wheel, which has not been in use for a quarter of a century, is in decay. The place of the wheel is known as Fairy Glen. The wheel, which is 25 feet in diameter, and 2½ feet wide on the water surface, was erected in 1866. For 10 years the power supplied by the wheel Old Mill Wheel at Gorham. operated a carpet factory. In 1870 Elder Gammons, a machinist, who was afterward known as a manufacturer of powder mill machinery and tools, came into possession of the property, and bought the death bed used by the old mill for the manufacture of machinery and tools. Gammons' death was accidental. He was working in his shop late one night, and fell through a scuttle in the floor of the neighbors, who went in search of him when he was missed from home. S. E. McClellan, now a resident of Gorham, was one of those who helped build the old mill, more than half a century ago. He made the bolts which have held the wheel together all these years.

For more than a score of years he has been stationed in front of the tombstone shop, guarding the traffic that goes up and down Main street in this town. But where once he proudly watched the spring wagons and carry-ons, he now looks up oakhure, white the farmers went up and down the street laying in the week's supplies, now he is unnoticed and in the way. Perhaps it is the years of rain and snow made his stubby nose look shorter and apporter turned up in the fog. Likely it is the fumes of the gasoline that he is obliged to smell as the motor cars pass him 35 Forlorn Stone Hitching-Post. by and stop just beyond the spot where he is stationed.
