But when you lean over his crib you must be very careful to be otherwise a ship might pass and the count of the vessels be incomplete. A visitor violated this rule one day, and there was an immediate howl from the crib, which instantly subsided when the visitor approached him from the right side.

And he is smiling, too. Not all of those at Sea Breeze home, however, are in the hospital, numbered among the cases where the only hope is that the tonic salt air will do what medicines and even the surgeon's knife cannot accomplish in eradicating this fearful disease of the bone. There are also large dormitories for children who have no disease, but who need rest and fresh air and plenty of food to enable them to survive the heat of a tenement summer. Then there is the large department where tired mothers can rest for awhile and enjoy the play of their children in the sand and the recreation pier, or go with their brood for a dip in the ocean. Of such mothers and children there are, on the average, 250 a week at Sea Breeze all summer. Last year there were 3,706 of these women and children there. All were not mothers however. Some were weared shop girls or big sisters, and not a few were "little mothers," had a chance to allow a trained nurse to take the baby from their childish arms and to be able to play a little while, confident that the trolleys would do no damage.

For if a picnic party gets in range of Sea Breeze and the nurses there suspect that there is a lack of good milk to feed the bables a scout is sent out, and almost before the picnic party knows it the bables and children are busy tucking away some of the purest milk that can be bought in New York. Later, when the babies grow sleepy, they find themselves in snow, shaded cubs, instead of fretting out in the heat of a sunswept beach, with no cool, pure water to quench their thirst.

SKIPPER'S FIGHT WITH WHALE From the deck of the little coasting steamer Coos Bay Capt. James Bowen waged a battle with a mammoth whale whil eihis vessel was off Cayucos, on her way up the coast. The whale was .observed making straight for the steamer, and Bowen was obliged to put his vessel upon a different course to avoid collision with the whale. Even the of the skipper did not suffice to keep the Coos Bay out of danger, and, drawing a revolver, the captain opened fire upon his enemy. Twice he emptied the contents of the revolver's chambers, and the leaden missiles apparently had little effect upon the mammal, as it renewed its attack upon the vessel. Finally in a last effort to escape from the whale the skipper of the steamer ordered full speed ahead, and gradually the Coos bay approached the vessel. Speaking of the experience shortly after the Coos Bay's arrival in port one member of the crew said: "For some moments it looked like the whale would surely hit us, and considerable excitement was caused aboard the ship. The mammal was all of 100 feet long, and seemed of a particularly vicious species. "Even when Capt. Bowen discharged his revolver at it the whale kept coming after us, although the water was dyed with blood. But for the fact that the whale was able to crowd on a little stormy shore have come into part with some scars where the whale hit us with his fukes "The first time we caught sight of the whale was off Caucucs, and it kept swimming along the coast, sometimes almost along the ship, and but a hundred yards off. Big Up-State Elm. A giant elm tree at Walcott was recently cut down. It was the last of the original forest. The stump was fifteen feet in circumference, and the rings indicated that it was fully 300 years old. The body will make at least 2,600 feet of lumber and the top twenty-five cords of wood.

Spread them week's heat on national campaign headquarters during the heat of the political battle. Representatives and senators and themselves absolutely at the mercy of the man in charge of the speakers' bureau, and when he says go there is nothing that can change his decision. Those who refuse, if they do ever run, the risk of having all help from outside speakers cut off from their districts, and many assistance to not only him but other assistance to keep them in their places at Washington. When a man has once put himself in the hands of this speakers' bureau he may as well put away his own wishes and prepare himself to be whirled from one end of the country to the other, sleeping on trains, eating where he may, and almost invariably without any compensation except the help which is sent to him in return when he needs it. Speakers must be delivered at a certain point at a given time, for a disappointed crowd votes, and it won't do to risk the loss of even a few votes in the hands of the states. So the carriages go forward, special trains carry speakers, often pleasing out the journey by means of automobiles, and even sending a speaker flying from one point to another in an engine cab. Political campaigns for the election of a president for the last eight years have been robbed of some of the spectacular features which attend them when an election is looked upon as very close. The campaign just beginning will be one in which every effort will be put forth on both sides, and no opportunities overlooked or which might mean success in November. Modern business methods have been adapted to political campaigns as to other lines of work. The campaign of 1904 was conducted under George B. Cortelyou with a snap and vigor which marked it as one of the most systematic of recent years. That of 1908 will be as far in advance of that of four years ago as the adoption of every modern improvement to the conduct of a great business enterprise can make it. American politics is in no sense on a business basis" in the sense in which it sometimes used, but the man who conducts those trained to know the value of system and when to discard system to enable the accomplishment of a coup, and the campaign of 1908 is going to be full of surprises. William H. Taft and William J. Bryan are universally recognized as men who will be able to wage a very strong battle against each other. The situation is very different from that created by the nomination of Theodore Roosevelt after he filled out occupied term of President McKinley. In response, Bryan has gained strength and power. Republicans are confident that Mr. Taft will prove equal to the task and carry the party standard to victory. --- and, captain ents of lead- effect its at- last the full Coos shortly in port d like and caused was a par a fact charged com- was fact would scars dukes. night of Whatever may be the result of the election the methods by which the res- ult is arrived at will give the blase student of politics something new to think about.

Defective Page A THIS YEAR THE PEOPLE WILL SEE THE CANDIDATE IN MOVING PICTURES drawing power, he plans to debate his cause before the people from the car platform and from the improvised steps to an extent which has not before been undertaken. Mr. Taft has not firmly settled the details of his campaign. Many of his friends have suggested to him the dignified attitude of President McKinley in his "porch campaign," when thousands of clubs and delegations were received and addressed from the front porch of his home at Canton. Others of just as good judgment will have nothing but a tour around the circle of doubtful states, with speeches galore and much red fire that will be quite possible that the result will be a combination of the two programs. Whatever the candidates may do after they have been nominated and their speeches of acceptance made is but a small part of the real politics of the campaign. They are allowed to believe that they are the great unf�tunate issue before the people, but this is a mere courtesy. Unless the candidate takes a personal 'direction over his campaign and tries to follow it day by day he soon becomes but the man at the head of the ticket." He does that, says he to do and goes where he is sent, says that is suggested to him that he made say at one place, and changes his speech to meet the special requirements of the next step of his special train. Back of him is the national committee, charged with the management of the contest, and he is in his hands. THIS YEAR THE PROFILE IN MOVING Mr. Taft acknowledged his turning to the gentle prick of the mahout just recently when he said: "You know I am in the hands of the party now; I must be careful; I am, in a sense, simply carrying the sigh." People who know Mr. Taft well do not take this statement too seriously, and it is believed he will exercise a control over his campaign which will be unusual. In this respect he is not unlike Mr. Bryan, who has his party so subjugated that it moves to his beck and call in a most mild mannered way. He, too, will very likely keep very close to the workings of his committee. In this case we shall have the somewhat unusual sight of all candidates directing the committees. It is far more likely, however, that once the campaign is well under way the candidates may be allowed to think they are running affairs when in reality they are but the puppets of the national committees, which are the responsible heads of the great committee. Selection of the national committee is made at the convention, when state delegations name one of the number to represent the state during the next four years.

To the speakers' bureau is given over the entire charge of furnishing speakers for rallies and political gatherings in all the states of the Union. A list of speakers is prepared, made up to a large degree of members of congress, with additions of lawyers and public men who have come to the notice of the committee. These are studied and classified by a man familiar with the special talent and drawing power of each. Then a schedule is made up and they are assigned to speak where it is believed their work will be most effective. It costs a great deal of money to succeed the speakers' bureau. Railroad travel and often the heavy expense of special trains or other unusual modes of conveyance are incurred to get the people to the special place where his work is required at the right time. Plenty of money for expenses is furnished, and this is in practically all cases the remuneration which is given for the work, which is very hard. Modern inventions will play their part in the contest now beginning. Buttons and banners bearing the face of the candidate and his name have grown common. This year the people will see him in moving pictures. The talking machine is being considered as an adjunct, but up to this time has very successful. The audience misses him and arms, the facial expression and the omphasis of a telling point with a response to trump up the table, and nothing has been found which will take their place. It was decided in a recent campaign that it was more effective to read speeches than to have them reeled off from the phonograph record. Campaigning is made harder and more expensive and enthusiasm is less readily aroused than when success meant the parceling out of more good offices. The civil service has robbed political life of much of its glamor. In the old days the workers knew that if they were successful pecuniary reward would come, and this was a great incentive. The Freak of a Kansas Storm. A curious freak of the tornado took place on the Tucker farm. Mr. Tucker, who was lying in bed with a broken leg, could not run to a place of safety when the storm was seen coming. His wife gathered the three little children and they all piled on the bed with Mr. Tucker, the wife saying that if all were killed they would, all else together. After the storm Mrs. Tucker found herself about fifty yards away, two little girls down in the bed of the creek, the little boy sitting on a pile of straw, all unhurt. Looking toward the house Mrs. Tucker saw all of it swept away except the floor. But the bed still stood where it did before the storm, and her husband was still lying upon it without a scratch.

ANNUAL LOSS HEAVY RAILROADS PAY LARGE SUMS IN DAMAGES. No Less Than $24,000,00 Given Last Year to Satisfy Customers for Freight Destroyed or Injured in Transit. Railroads of the United States last year paid $24,000,000 cold cash to satisfy customers for freight loss and damages. According to an expert this is an increase of 500 per cent, over the losses of ten years ago. Whether this is an increase in payments for losses either loss and damages to freight loss and damages to this proportion is a question which cannot be decided from the statement, writes Hollis W. Field in the Chicago Tribune. But at least the immensity of the sum serves to indicate how the railroad company, over almost any other employer of men, stands responsible for the shortcomings and mistakes of the average man in its employ. Only are these tremendous bills chargeable against the companies, but it long has been recognized at competing points that the road which is prompt in the settlement of its claims has the preference at the hands of shipers. In this way the road is between two fires compelling it to consider the claims for damages. When shortcomings of the freight department are responsible for these business, the man who is familiar with the process of loading and unloading in general will believe the assertion of this expert when he says "only a great railroad company could stand it." It becomes an economical problem when an automobile worth $2,500, and paying five dollars freight charges, is loaded at a freight station by hurried men, who must get through the day's work somehow, and shipped 50 miles with other machinery or merchandise, is shunted to a depot platform and unloaded by the same class of help, and we discovered to be damaged $500 worth of goods leading to careless dumping from the yard. It worse when the damage is so irreparable that the consignee will not receive it. But every day in the conduct of a great railroad similar damages are done because of a lack of judgment and care on the part of men who hold the destiny of such freight in their hands. One piece of freight may represent a value double the salary of the man for a year. But there is no check on him save as he will study the Printed rules of the company regarding the delivery of these rules into practice. Otherwise the claim department has a case for settlement on its hands. Perhaps no other business requires such a volume of printed rules for the conduct of its business as does the railroad. In the matter of its freights it must depend upon an average type of man for handling and delivery. It is the complaint of the type that hours are long and wages low. No one doubts that the railroad station agent, telegrapher, freight agent, baggagger, and mall-pouch man at thousands has his single all over the country has his single all over the country here and there, his impulse is to take things for granted—to take the short cut to an end. In one year the Northwestern railroad out of Chicago audited 58,146 claims for damages and loss of freight along its lines, paying a total of $330,611.04 in restitution. This was almost ten per cent. upon the freight revenues of the road for that year. Hurried, siliphod methods of freight handling were responsible for most of this loss. Employs Long In Service Probably unique among the pay rolls of the country is that of the Pennsylvania railroad, which, according to a compilation just completed, is shown to have 1,350 active employees who have been with the road 40 years or more. In addition, 1,013 men served the company more than 40 years, but have retired from active work, and are receiving pension regularly from the company. The census of the civil service of the United States showed on July 1, 1907, that those who had worked in the service of the national government were more than 60 numbered 40 men and one woman. On the other hand, the Pennsylvania railroad records show that to-day there are on the pay rolls of the company 316 men who have been in its service more than 50 years. Pinned Under Wrecked Engine. A bridge near Shrader Station, in Mifflin county, Pennsylvania, gave way beneath a traction engine and thrashing machine and killed Ellis Alexander, 14 years old, of Millroy, and William Close, 26 years old, of the same place. In its fall the engine turned turtle, and both young fellows were caught in the machinery. Alexander's neck was cut off. He was cooked in escaping steam. He was pinned under the engine and practically roasted to death before the eyes of his wife and family.

AN OLD FAMILIAR STORY. “Night riding in Kentucky is not approved by the best people in the Blue Grass State,” said Daniel M. Bowmar in arecent interview. “While a large number of persons are in sympathy with the ‘night riders’ in Kentucky, the majority of the think- ing people seem to believe the theory of conquering by might is wrong.” Mr, Bowmar is rehearsing an old and familiar story as to conditions down South. We all know that the best people of that section do not approve of anything discreditable— that thelr faces are set against graft- ing, boodling and lynching. ; But, somehow, they seem to have very little power or infuence to prevent such things and they cannot be per stiaded or coerced into giving evid- ence against them. Such crimes are always perpetrated by unknown! par- Copyright, 1908, Harrie & Ewihg, Warh.. D.C. HON. JAMES S. SHERMAN, Next Vite President of the United States: ties, even when they occur in broad open: daylisht by unmasked men. ‘It is well to study some of the facts that were made manifest by the bar- barous’ mob outrages‘that occurred af Sprinfield, Ills. The evidence shows that the members of the mob cared comparatively little for the alleged outrage upon a woman. Attacks were made not only upon Afro-Americans, but upon Jewish pawn brokers, and hundreds of stores were plundered and their goods carried off. In other words, many of the rioters were .n- tent on plunder and cared nothing for the outrage. Such was also the case in Atlanta, and it is safe to conclude that such will always be the case. ‘The police, after the mob was put down, fourid wagou-loads of stolen goods in the houses of the rioters. ‘That the Springfield mob was com- posed very largely of thieves is proved by the fact that, during its reign, the stores were looted and values to the amount of. thousands of dollars, carried off and divided or stored away. These thieves cared nothing for the honor of any woman, black or white, but rejoiced: in an op portunity ‘to’ plunder. As a conse quence, while the blacks lost thelr all, the whites suffered in no small degree, and the taxpayers, of both races, will have an immense burden to bear. ‘The simple fact is that the rioters should have: been shot down— they were burglars and the law jus tifies any man in killing a burglar in the act of breaking into his house. THE CONVICT LEASE SYSTEM. We have not often been called upor to commend any actions of big Hoax Smith, governor of Georgia, but must do so, if it be true, that he will call the legislature together to put a stop to the convict system. An investi gation has shown that the convict sys: tem of Georgia has resulted in cruel ties which almost defy description— that convicts, male and female, black and white, have héen tortured and murdered in numerous instances. The same is true of every state in which the convicts are sold to contractors We earnestly hope that the Georgia legislature will put a stop to the atro: cious system. NAT'L. GRAND LODGE 1. B. P.O.

The number of visitors fell: consid- erably short of that which was ex- pected, but this only made it easier for us to make those who came more This has been a week of work and pleasure, beginning with the informal reception of fhe visitors, who began to arrive on the special from Chicago at 9:30, at Blks’ Hall, 126 East Third street Monday night, and their assign- ment to the homes of the people whose guests they were to be guring their stay.

Each ‘carried little canes with pennants attached, and they looked as swell as could be’ Numerous favora- ble comments were made upon their handsome appearance and soldierly bearing. ‘Then came nine carriages, in which rode the officers and high dignitaries. ‘The second division, led by Capitol City Band, was composed of a num. ber of carriages and automobiles filled with ladies of.the order, ‘The thitd “division,” led by Elks’ Band and drum major of Chicago, con- sisted principally of Great Lakes Lodge of Chicago.

E, Johnson & Go, the official photographer. ‘The streets along the line of march was thronged with spectators, and nu- merous encomiums of praise ‘could be heard on every side. ‘The parade was a revelation to the people of St. Paul. ‘After the disbanding of the parade a secret session of the Grand Lodge was held and a large number took the Grand Lodge degrees, so as to be able to attend its sessions, Tuesday Evening ‘Tuesday evening’ came the grand reception and ball at the Auditorium. ‘Any attempt to fully describe this affair would be futile, as it beggars description. The guests were late in assembling, but before the close there were over 1,500 present. ‘At first the Auditorium was set as an opera house. Seated upon the stage were the members of the Grard Lodge and other’ prominent. personages to the number of about 150. Rev. W. D.

After the exercises were concluded the treat of seeing the Auditorium turned into a vast ball room was given to. the audience. This is one of the things about the Auditorium that must be seen to be appreciat- ed. When ‘the transformation was complete and the ladies and gentle- mens who occupied the boxes on the sides of the stage had filled them those 44 boxes presented ,a scene of loveli- ness that was nevel before witnessed in the Auditorium. The gowns of the ladies, worn on this occasion, were the highest creations of the modiste’s art ana were simply superb, ‘Then came the grand march, led by the 32 gentlemen of the floor com- mittee, and when, after the other gen- tlemen and their'ladies had joined in the march, and the lines, 32 abreast, came down the center of ‘the stage, It Was a scene long to be remembered. The Elks’ Band furnished the mu- sic and 20 numbers.were danced. Never before has there been a more representative gathering. . Never be- fore has there been so handsomely dressed gathering, Never before has there been so large a gathering of Afro-Americans in St. Paul. And the manager of the Auditorium says it was one of the best entertainments in every way that has been held in the Auditorium, and refiects the highest credit upon the people. The Auditorium ball wil not soon: be forgotten. All who were present from abroad are unanimous in their opinion that ite lke was Never ‘sen anywhere before. A nice supper was served in the spacious dining hall and punch was served in the corridors. \ ‘The excellent deportment was most marked, and, although there were up- wards of 1.500 present, there was not the slightest incident of rudeness to mar the evening's enjoyment. Wednesday was Minneapolis Day, and a delightful railroad excursion was furnished to Jordan, Minn., which was enjoyed by a large crowd, Thursday. evening a big boat excur- sion was the feature that was enjoyed by a large crowd. + Friday afternoon there was a ball game by the Birmingham nine aid the St. Paul Gophers, and upon invitation the Grand Lodge went to Hamm's brewery, where a splendid lunch was served and splefidid time was had. Between the pleasures which were provided the members of the Grand Lodge found time to transact their business, which resulted in a plan for the unification of the two wings of the order, which will be perfected at the next annual meeting at Detroit. At the meeting Thursday night the following officers were ¢lected: W. E. Atkins, @. B. R. Raymond L, Phillips, G. E. L. K: Dr. Dibble, G. EB. L. K. Dr. Kellogg, G.j0. L. EB. M. Shoecraff, G. B. Rey.

President Phelps and Secretary De Lyons, are up-to-date in their methods and their management of the club leaves nothing wanting. PORTERS' AND WAITERS' CLUB An Up-to-Date Chartered Social Institution for Gentlemen. The Porters' and Waiters' Social Club, which for a long time has had its quarters on the third floor of 319 Wabasha street, has recently added the second floor to its holdings.

The State Grand Lodge of United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten met, in special session at Wagner Hall Thursday morning for the purpose of greeting the National Grand Master W A. Gaines and National Grand Secretary M. R. Perry, who came to the city to present the charter to the State Grand Lodge. There was a full attendance of the members of the Lodge, which was opened by State Grand Master J. H. Dillingham, who introduced the National officers. After listening to excellent talks by these two distinguished gentlemen the Lodge proceeded to do such work as was found necessary. There had been some friction between District Deputy J. R. White and State Grand Master J. H. Dillingham, and after a full hearing of both sides, the matter was amicably settled and status of each was fixed as above and the case in court was ordered to be dismissed. Several other minor difficulties were settled agreeably and absolute harmony was established. I have found necessary to make some changes in officers, which was done by the election of: J. H. Charleston, St. Paul, State Grand Deputy Master. S. M. Critic, Minneapolis, Grand Secretary. Mrs. Mary L. Joyce, Minneapolis, Grand Assistant Secretary. B. R. Durant, St. Paul, Grand Treasurer. J. Q. Adams was appointed District Deputy for St. Paul. The officers were duly installed by Grand Master Gaines, who then presented the state charter to the Grand Lodge and the Lodge then adjourned. After the adjournment a conference was held to consider the arrangements for the coming of triennial meeting of the National Grand Lodge next year. The meeting, which lasted all day, wore up with a veritable love feat. All different women. Touched out and settled to the full satisfaction of every body concerned, all being delighted with the visit of the national officers and their adjustment of affairs. Mr. Wm. E. Nagel, the undertaker, located at 208 W. Third street, "Seven Corners," who was injured in a runaway accident several weeks ago is out again and able to attend to his business.

Travelers who enter Shrewsbury by the Abbey Foregatestation can scarcely fail to observe one of the most remarkable features to be seen at any railway station in the world. This is a pulpit. It stands prominently above the coal wagons and miscellaneous goods trucks of the station yard an ancient stone structure, to which access is gained by an equally ancient flight of stone steps. This pulpit is the only remaining fragment of the domestic buildings of the once great and powerful Abbey of Shrewsbury. In the olden days it stood in the monks' refectory and was used for preaching from and for reading the lessons while the monks ate their frugal meals. How the Scarecrow Earns His Wages. As he stands in the middle of the flat Suffolk field there is little to show that he is not the ordinary inanimate scarecrow. He stands motionless for five minutes at a time, and only when a bird is tempted by the fresh corn just appearing above the ground does he show any sight of life. But then it is that the scarecrow moves; he hits an old tin can with the rusty handle of a shovel and frightens the birds and makes them fly quickly out of sight. So he spends his day, this old bent man, and at the end he is paid 18 pence. He is the village scarecrow. The Price of Supremacy The improvement in naval construction proceeds so rapidly that what was yesterday the last word in science may to-morrow be but baby prattle. The pity of it is that this "prattle" means the expenditure of millions of pounds which a day hence may be regarded as wasted. The Philosophy of Flirting To woman marriage is a much more serious undertaking than to man. Therefore the first is not to be wholly condemned; she is merely enjoying herself at another's risk in order to see whether the conditions suit her. Real Fishing. I've whipped miles of trout stream, I've played many a husky bass, I've read of the angler's battles with tarpon and salmon and tuna; but when I want just real fishing, I seek out a quiet little river I know, dig a can of worms, get down on the small of my stopper float, and wait for the perch to bite. Carefully Revised. "Is there anything?" asked the preacher, "that you would have me leave out of the service? Some ladies prefer to have the word 'obey' omitted." "Thank you, yes," replied the up-to-date girl, "leave that out, and also the till-death-ou-part foolishness. One never can tell in these days what may happen, you know." Faith. The faith that passeth understanding is the kind one has who pays $1 for a blood purifier which is passed over the counter by a man whose face is full of blotches. But He isn't Likely to Last. A very inferior man can become prominent if any body boosts him. Twin City Carpet Cleaning Works Carpets, Matting Rugs, Etc., Taken up Cleaned, Re-laid, Re-fitted, Packed for Shipment or Stored.
