THE POPS CLOSED
 THEIR CAMPAIGN At Central Park Last Night About Two Hundred Per-
 sons Present.

The populists closed their state campaign at Central park in this city last night and were greeted with an audience of about 200 people, many of whom were democrats attracted thither by the fact that S, A. Hobson, brother of Lieutenant Richmond F. Hobson, the "hero of the Merrimac," was billed to speak,
 The Pratt City band had been engaged and furnished about all the enthusiasm that was manifest, although several feeble ef- forts at applause were started by the few dyed-in-the-wool "pops" who were present when the speakers enlarged upon the popu- list battle cry of Fraud" and Ballot box stuffing." Even the stirring strains of -Dixie" failed to arouse the audience from the lethargic state into which it had ap- parently fallen.
 G. B. Deans, candidate for governor, oc- cupied a seat on the platform, and as the evening wore along strolled around the grounds, but failed to make his appearance before the audience in the role of speaker.
 The meeting was called to order, by Chairman G. B. Grove of the state execu- tive committee, who introduced Colonel
 
 of the northwestern division on the citi- zens' ticket. At the conclusion of Colonel Chisolms speech, which was an attack upon the democratic party, Chairman Grove introduced MT. Hobson the chief speaker of the evening.
 MT. Hobson gracefully acknowledged the presence of few ladies and apologetically referred to his relationship to Lieutenant Richmond P. Hobson in the sense that it h. son is considered one of the hest stump speakers in the populist party and has a wonderful flow of language His speech of over an hour was devoted to the alleged shortcomng of the democratic party, in contrast to the alleged virtue and purity of populism.
 The meeting was closed with a short speech by L. E. Parson the candidate for the legislature on the citizens ticket who made one of his charac acteristic speeches

such as that could not have been an
ordinary event. The circumstance, al
ready sufficiently quaint, becomes mar
Vicious not merely through the endur-
ance OF a memory SO archaic but
through scientific demonstration of its
truth. Concerning the lost Atlantis
Plato told The country which stretch
ed beyond it, Theopompus described
According to Plato, information on the
subject was gathered by Scion when
rummaging in Memphian crypts. In
connection with which it may be noted
that if the inscriptions on the walls
of Uxmal are not of Egyptian origin
then Egyptian civilization originated in
Yucatan. But that is a detail. Solon's
story was to the effect that over
against the Pillars of Hercules in an
terror days a continent greater than
Asia extended to another remoter still.
1t was the ether one-this country
which T'heopompus described. Accord
ing to him, there were here immense
cities waJered by two great streams,
the River OF Pleasure and the River
of Pain. He added that the garments
of the inhabitants were the down of
feathers and that they lived on the
scent Of the rose Theopompus may
have been right, yet in that case how
customs have changed. But no matter
about that. In the recitals of these

three and Teddy Roosevelt They
stretched their cramped limbs and gaz-
ed around them at the rustic loungers
on the piazza with an air of naughty
wonder, tempered with indulgence.
These visitors from the metropolis were
gotten up in costumes Of exaggerated
rusticity.
Their corduroys were of the newest,
built by Broadway tailor for rough
work in the woods, their guns were of
the latest and most approved pattern,
and as they penetrated into the wilder
ness of the SebOiS, on the day after
their arrival at Patten, the deer cow
cred closer into the shades of the for
est and several bob cats committed
suicide rather than face the fate that
awaited them at the hands of Teddy.
Well, they hunted and hunted and
hunted, Roosevelt following trails with
all the persistency that has since dis
tinguished him in searching out VIC
lators of the Raines law till at last.
one ever-to-be-forgotten day, Bill fell
bodily over small deer that had been
utterly exhausted by long chase and
lay gasping among the underbrush.
1t was such chance as cones bus
was quick to take advantage Of it.
Selling the struggling animal by the
throat:
Here's one, quick, Mr.. Roosevelt"
he cried.
New York's future Mayor tore
through the bushes and fixing his gaze
on the top of the tallest tree in the
vicinity exclaimed wildly:
Where, where; l don't see him!"
Probably not" said Bill, gently;
che isn't up tree"
Teddy turned his gaze towards the
earth and executing a wild war dance,
yelled:
you hold him while shoot"
Gazing with awe and admiration at
the wonderful things Teddy was doing
with his rife, the guide said gently,
but firmly:
you must excuse me, but | have
large family dependent on me-" and
as he spoke he released the deer.
There was a flash from the rife, and,
said Bill:
The bullet went one way an the
deer the other, an | dunno but what
they're both travein' yet"

OLD CADIZ.

The Presidents rumOred intention Of
carrying the war into Spain is inspr-
iting. 1t presents the triple advantage
of being practical, popular and pic
turesque. One does not need to be a
prophet to assume that unless there Is
a general smash-up in the meantime
it would also be productive of peace.
Cadiz once captured, war would cease
precisely as it did after the French ex-
petition of 1923. In that instance
the siege lasted three months. Pre-
viously the city had been ineffectively
blockaded for a period which exceeded
two years. In the last century again
and again it was unsuccebsfully at
tackled. Cadiz is a stronghold. Found
ed by Pygmalion, King Of Tyr, its
arms still represent lions strangled by
Hercules. Under the latter's care and
protection the city was placed. But
Cadiz is not merely a stronghold, It is
a very beautiful place. 1t is famous,
too. 1t is there that as simple GIaes-
tor Caesar wept. At the time it was
renowned for the sheen of its purple,
for wine smoother than Falernian, for
honey more aromatic than that OF Hy-
mettus, and for girls that had the
Orient in their eyes and lips that SAID
Drink me-" But Cadiz-or, rather, to
be exact, Gaddir-had other charms.
Known as the Ship OF Stone, its so1s
were immemorial explorers. The pre-
sentiment of a land across the sea was
hereditary. They were III love with
the sunset They sailed as near it as
they could, returned for more provis-
ions and sailed again, nearer and ever
nearer this way. 1t will be ore of the
cul1-sities of histo"y should our guns
lombard that port, should Hercules
and Sampson meet.
In Cadiz the prnsentmeNt mentioned
of land across the sea stalled the
streets. To antiquity the idea was a
dream. To prehistoric Europe it was
a tradition, to primeyal humanity
fact. The disappearance Of a world
conceded with the advent of man. At
that time Spain and the United States
were one Biologists have shown that

hind the beginning Of time a contin-

mythography as Atlantis. 1t connected
this country with the Iberian PENN
sula. Of it the Azores, Madeira, and
the CanarieS remain. Everything be-
ing possible, t may be that there were
those who stood about and baheld the
CONFUSION in which it disappeared. 1t
