With its exquisite tone and its beautiful

It's cadence is sweeter, musicians all

Than feeding on strawberries smother

POLITICAL TRADITIONS UPSET.
Tnc0ngruities of the Income Tax Legis

Incongruities of tho Income Tax Legis-
lation and Litigation.
y WASHINGTON, May 25.-In the form
of Legislation and litigation the income
tax has upset political traditions in
curious ways. 1t was enacted by a
Democratic congress, but is essentially
a federal law. To sustain it required
at least fedora! leaning. To declare
it unconstitutional was a matter of
strict construction, and so the matter
was again on between the strict and
liberal constructionists-th the Democrats
and the Federalists-and the labor of
sustaining the Federal. side fell
upon Democratic administration. The
justices from the South to man sus-
tanned the law. Two of them were
Confederate soldiers, one Federal
soldier; two of them were Democrats,
one a Republican. All united most
vigorously in sustaining the national
authority, All the justices of the ma
jority are Northern men of Eastern
birth, four from New England and one
from Pennsylvania. These appear as
the strict constructionists of the court
and agree in restricting the power of
the federal government.

AN ELECTRICAL GIRL.
She Lives In Missouri, and Wonderful
Tales Are Told About Her.

She Lives In Missouri, and Wonderful
Tales Are Told About Her.
The latest electrical girl to be heard
from is Jennie Moran, who lives near
Sedalia, Mo. One Of her many alleged
wonderful powers is that of illuminate
ing room by her presence. This she
can do or not do, just as she chooses
The most marvellous thing, however,
about the feat is that human eyes have
not yet been able to see where the light
comes from. On entering dark room
it is at once as light as day if she wills,
but when she goes out the light is ex.
tinguished. When producing the phe,
nomenon, nobody dares touch her on
penalty of death. She seems to b"
charged with all the electrical bolts Of
live wire. The personal atmosphere
that surrounds her at such times repclS
and thus has saved many from injury
A cat was picked up by the girl wh!lo
charged and was instantly killed. In
fact, she is admitted to be an actual hu.
man dynamo. Even during ordinary
times, when she is as near the normal
as she ever gets, terrific shocks are eI.
perienced by those who take hold Of
her hands. One gentleman, Henry }
Ashcroft, who was investigating the
case, endeavored to undergo the tor.
ments Of the girls powers. but at the
end OF few seconds was unconscious.
After recovering he found that his gold
watch had turned black. So, at least,
the stories run in tho local papers,

CONDITION OF CROPS
In the Northwest and on
the Pacific Coast Wheat
Is Good.
BAD REPORTS FURTHER SOUTH.
Chinch Bugs, Rust and Many
Other Ills Have Aided
the Frost.

NEW YORK, May 25.-The World
publishes telegraphic reports from
nearly 800 points in the wheat belt,
showing the exact condition Of the
crop.
These reports, The World says, show
that on the vast wheat farms of the
Northwest, in Minnesota and the Da-
kotas, the wheat crop is not only unin-
jured, but actually is in better than the
average condition.
Never BETTER" is a significantly fire.
quent expression of the correspondents
from that section of the country. From
the southern section of the wheat belt
there comes different story. Kansas
reports indicate less than half crop.
In Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, chinch
bugs, rust and other ills
Have Aided the Frost
In doing extensive damage TO wheat.
Missouri and Michigan also report
which is becoming one of the largest
wheat-producing sections in the coun-
try, all reports agree that the crop is
above the average. Taking the whole
wheat belt, together with the Pacific
slope, it seems clear from these reports
that the present prospect is for at least
an average crop Favorable conditions
and an Increased crop in the vast fields
of the Northwest will easily make uI
for the lessened crops in the diminished
wheat area of the central states.

He Deuies Entirely the Charges Made

LONDON, May 25.-There was the
usual crowd Of people in the Old Bailey
courtroom when Sir Edward Clarke
addressed the jury in behalf of his
client, Oscar Wilde, who is charged
with serious misdemeanors. Among
those present was Lord Douglas of Ha.
wick, the eldest son of the Marquis of
Queensberry. Wilde was called to the
witness box and was provided with a
chair, rs he seemed to be utterly broken
down. Wilde, in answer to the quas.
tions, related how he had been on
terms Of intimacy with the Marquis of
Queensberry's family for years, and
entirely denied the charges made
against him.
