 ID YOUNG MEN,

It cannot be to well known that more than one-half the diseases are brought on by disohedience to the lnws of nature, by imprudence and excess, and more especially by those aemoralizing and debasing habits of youth practiced in ignorance Of the evil consequences and terrible results that surely follow sooner or latter i'll fife There are thousands of young men in our midst who snffAr in some way from the result, and yet go on shining till they become unfit for the duties of life-with manly powers impaired or lost, and q constitution undermined and breaking down with some chronic, nervous or or- anis disease. Nervous Debility may arise from other causes than early indis- eretiens; for instance, sedentary occupation, excessive mental or physical work, malarious influence, indulgence, irritated condition oi the system or a loss of seminal fluid at night.

The following is from the last issue of the Russellville Democrat:
 Speaking about consistency upon the sil yer question, since Gov. Clarke has seen fit to assail Senator Jones record in that direction, it will be admitted to be fair and honorable politics to inquire how far the Gov ernor has gone to prove his devo- tion to the free silver cause. In his appointment of trustees of the State University, he appointed two promi- nent gold bugs, to.wit: J. Buck Me Donough, of Fort Smith, and w. H. Langford, of Pine Bluff As mem- bers of the State board of charities he appointed w. H. Cooper, of Nal vern, Dr. c. M. Taylor, of Little Rock, and H. L. Remmel, of New port, all sound money men, and the latter a Republican. Through the influence of Gov. Clarke, o. c. Ludwig, a jealous free silver man, who was secretary of the board here alluded to, was displaced and w. M kavanaugh, a sound money" man, was elected in his stead. Further more, Gov. Clarke is Q stockholder in the Gazette, and W B. Worthen, who is principal owner of the Gazette, is one of the Governors most earnestsupporters. We should not mention these facts if it were not that Clarke's partisans in this county are uneeasing in their charges that the "gold bugs" are all for Senator Jones.

THE- ST4TE COMMENTARY

The Democratic State Central Committee met in Little Rock yes terday to fix date for the meeting of the Democratic State Convention and the basis of represen tation in the same.
 After several votes, June IF was decided on as the date for the con- vention and the basis of represen- tation was fixed at one delegate for every 100 votes cast for J. P. Clarke for Governor in 1894, and one dele gate for each fraction of that num- Der in excess of fifty. This will make the convention consist of 748 dele gates. At the September election of 1891, Jefferson county cast 1724 votes for ]. P. Clarke, and the county will therefore be entitled to seventeen votes in the State con vention. This will be the largest represen tation Jefferson county has ever had in Democratic State Con Vention.

Miss Elizabeth B. Cook of Bridge
port, little hamlet in Fayette county,
Pa, always lived as though she were a
pauper. Recently she died without med
ical attention or friends present, and
the exact circumstances of her death
are not known. She was found lying
upon the floor some time after her
death. DR.. H. J. English was made ad-
ministrator, and he got firm OF attor-
neys to look around and see what her
few effects amounted to. The inventory
of the estate shows that she was the
owner of over $22. 900 of bank stock.
She also had over $28, 900 in cash on
deposit, and was the holder OF ten
shares of stock in the Pittsburg, Vlr-
ginia and Charleston Railroad company.
Nearly So, 500 in gold coin and 500 IN
silver coin and bank notes were found
sealed up tight in an old fruit can In
her home after her death. The property
will go to nephews, nieces and grand

New England Hasty Pudding.

It is not unlikely that many reading
the proposition to bring the body Of Joel
Barlow 'sfrom its resting place near
Cracow'' will wonder who Barlow was
and why his body is in Poland. In 1911
he was minister to France, and in the
fall of 1912 he was invited to a confer
ence with Napoleon at Wilma On his
journey he was attacked with infiamma-
ton of the lungs, and he died at Zarno-
witch. It is singular that Hildreth. IN
his history of the United States, speaks
of him as "Jacob Barlow" and says he
died at Warsaw.
Does any one read Barlow's poem,
'sThe Hasty Pudding" written at
Chambery, where the delicious dish was
unknown? We fear that the dish is de-
spised here today by leaders in society
and finance Yet in warm weather there
is nothing better for luncheon if it be
served with bowls of milk. We can
think of no more beautiful sight than
that of wealthy and prominent family
in Commonwealth avenue sitting around
the mahogany tree at the hour of 1. The
father has left the Office, forgetting the
negotiation of colossal loan in the
rapt thought of hasty pudding. Loving
wife, fond eyed grandmother, athletic
son, comedy daughter, grasp their spoons
firmly and are as one in the enjoyment.
There is at last the calm that follows
judicious deglutition. Such refreshment
once characterized the true New Eng

Comment
Trick 2-West returns the heart
through North in preference to leading
from his tenace in diamonds. Our
views on the subject of avoiding tenace
suits are well known, but they do not
extend to advocating aslead from a e
ace when a better lead is open. We
maintain that the lead from any suit
that Is not strong is a disadvantage
the weaker the suit, the greater the
disadvantage. We advise a lead
through the strong hand in a good
q weak suit, whether or not that SUI;
contains a tenace. We see no objection
to Vests playing here.
Trick 3-East leads ace of hearts,
knowing hat it will cav the thir-
teener with North, but East does noc
anticipate much loss from that.
Trick 4-East leads queen Of spades
as a strengthened. East is not a short
suit player, however. He thinks that
the spade strength lies between South
and West, as North has opened a
weak heart suit, and West a de-
clined to show his suit. We do not
regard a lead from a short suit after
the hand has been developed as short
suit whist.
Tricks 5-6-North reads East's lead to
Re from weakness, as Hamilton leads
ten from queen, jack, ten. North does
not care to lead from his three small
diamonds, and prefers to continue the
suit opened by adversary. This is a
line of play that is very useful in play
ing against the short suit game. When
an adversary leads your suit. it is not
necessary to lead his. East refuses
TO trump the doubtful trick.
Trick South is forced to lead a
trump. AS he cannot lead from his
king guarded in diamonds. and sees no
T. 49, - AIo~%I ~
fuses to win the trick: he has perceived
that both adv~ersaries have avoided the
diamond suit. and hopes that West will
now be forced to open it. In any event
he can gain nothing by playing ace OF
trumps, as it is clear that South has
no trump higher than the eight.
Trick 8-West would ave done well
to have returned the trump, but he
thinks best to attempt to clear up his
diamond suit before his trumpS are
gone. South therefore makes his king
Of diamonds.
Trick eSouth, having obtained his
| object, the making of the diamond king,
sees no further use for a trump lead,
and plays with the hope Of making one
Of his small trumps.
Tricks 10-11-West leads a trump,
and North plays ace to try his partner
with a diamond. South makes his
mall trump, and the deal has gone very
we'll for North and South.

The reason for this small showing was
we'll understood. The members Of the
ST. Paul Chess and Whist club had
been celebrating sound moneys great
victory the night1befare. Gordon and
O.. H. Briggs won the high score badges
with five tricks above the average.
The tournament for the first posses
sion Of the Gordon trophy for the sea
son will be started immediately. All
whist players, who desire to take part
in this tournament, should send their
names to the whist committee. The
players will be divided into teams of
four according to some plan which will
make the team as nearly equal In
strength as Is possible, and the play
will be started as soon as the teams are
formed. George l.. Bum.
