A Wife's Ingenuity

young couple OF Indianapolis, Just re-
turned from their wedding Journey went
TO housekeeping in cottage on the north
side They rented the house with part OF
the furniture from the owner who had LEFT
the city for a time. All went we'll appar-
emily for a few days without thing to
mar the newly welded bliss. One evening
while sitting before the CRATE reading his
paper the young husband, stealthily glanc-
Ing at his wife to see If she were looking,
took off one shoe and began scratching his
foot. Stealing another look at his wife he
perceived that she too, was scratching.
Their eyes met and explanations followed.
1t appeared that both had been troubled
with an intolerable itching sensation in
the feet ever since coming into the house,
says the Indianapolis News. They had
been afraid to tell each other, fearing some
sort of skin disease had been contracted
The husband began a systematic investl-
cation after the Sherlock Holmes style
He remembered that the people who left
the house had dog. The little red blotches
on his feet looked like flea bites. Putting
two and two together he arrived at the
conclusion that there were fieas in the car
pet. Further investigation proved this to be
true.
He left for business the next morning
without having settled on any definite plan
of action, but by evening he arrived at
the determination to tear up the carpets
and have them cleaned. When he went
home at o'clock, angry with the vision
of an evenings hard labor before him, he
found his young wife backing" through
the house trailing a string ON the floor and
a little white kitten chasing the string.
What on earth are you trying TO do?"
he asked, GROSSLY.
ITS great scheme of mine, George.
Watch the kitten"
She gathered up the string. The pussy,
the plaything removed and her mind left
open for other things, sat down after the
manner Of cats and began vigorously to
scratch her back with her hind leg at the
same time furiously chewing the fur on
her neck.
I've got most all of them out of the
carpet now," trumphantly explained the
wife. Another day and kitty and can do
the business"

Status of the Horse

When the bicycle became so popular sew
eral years ago, says the Philadelphia Record,
the enthusiasts claimed that the death knell
of the horse had been sounded. They argued
that 1t didn't cost anything to keep bicycle
while horse, when he wasn't being used,
was eating his head off. But the horse sur
vived and the bicycle fell from popular
favor Now the automobile appears on the
scene, and we again hear talk of horse
less age. 'To be sure the automobile Is
very expensive as yet" the enthusiasts will
tell you, "but that condition of affairs can
not last long. See how the bicycle was
forced down in price" Then he will tell
you that the horse is doomed. He forgets
that the mere cost of an automobile Is only
an item.
A Philadelphia lawyer, who has just re-
turned from Paris, which is automobile
crazy, says that the cost OF maintaining one
would bankrupt the ordinary citizen. "There
are plenty to choose from" he remarked,
with steam, gasoline, petroleum or electric
motors. These range in price from 5000 for
a motor cycle to $4,000 for heavy rigs suita-
BILE for carrying four persons and a driver.
While in Paris l busted myself to the ex
tent of finding out how much 1T cost 10
operate one of these carriages. For year
it's about as follows: Gasoline, $3.50;
lubricating oil, $5.45; repairs to carriage.
$102.50; repairs to machinery, $185; repairs
to tires, $27.50; sundries, $64.80; deprecia-
tion, $3.50; tax, $50; servant, 5000. That
makes a total of $872.75. Remember, this is
for Paris, where my calculations are based
upon the actual experience OF friend of
mine. But they can't vary much in this
country"

Monroe Leland Hayward well represented
in his life that type of American manhood
which affords the best hope of the republic.
In youth of poverty, on New York state
farm, he learned the lessons of industry
courage and self-denial. The spirit of a
sturdy and honorable ancestry urged him
ever forward to rise above the limitations
of his youth He early learned, like
Raleigh, to toll nightly with hand and
brain. Education, both for itself and as a
step to advancement, was from the begin
ming his chief ambition and the handspring
of his life.
By dint of truly heroic effort he had be-
ccme a student at the academy at Fort
Edward, N. Y, when the attack on Sumter
summoned the youth of the north to arms.
Hayward was at this time on the immedi-
ate threshold of manhood, approaching his
21st year. The new motive of pa
triotism surged over his life swallowing
up private ambition in it's flood He went
at once to the front and, for two years, did
conspicuous service under General Banks in
the campaign of the Shenandoah valley.
But his zeal outran his physical strength
and early in 1863 his health broke down

Helped to Rule COreanS

From little country newspaper office in
Kentucky into life of royal ease and
luxury, with a princely position under the
semi barbaric kingdom of Corea, is long
step and a most remarkable one, relates
the Chicago Chronicle. 1t seems almost i'm
possible that an American could hold a
position of trust under such strange and
suspicious monarchy as that of Corea, walled
in from the world for centuries, but Clar-
ence Greathouse for ten years was prime
minister or ho-pang of the country and he
was once a lawyer and editor in this coun-
try, with not the faintest dreams of ever
leaving, much less of holding office in Corea
News recently received that he had died in
Omaha daily bee., 1899-12-10

and he was compelled to return to his home
and to civil life.
Debarred by physical inability from the
military life, Haywards first thought was
to resume the struggle for education He
had already chosen the law as profession
BY teaching district schools and by man
ual labor he subsisted himself and became
a student at Fort Edward Institute, re-
naming until he graduated with honor. He
worked his way through college by teach
ing mathematics by bookkeeping and by
strenuous efforts, manual and mental. Self
reliance and self-denial made him sturdy
and efficient.
Directly after graduating he began, at Fort
Edward, N. Y, in the office of Judge Wait,
to read law. He subsequently, completed
his legal studies at Whitewater, Wis, and
was admitted to the bar in 1867. Then he
located permanently at Nebraska City.
Senator Hayward, from the beginning to
the end of his useful life, carried determina-
ton and persistent industry into all his en-
terprises and undertakings. Every task
which confronted him was tackled with
persistent pluck that could result only in
achievement.
The citizens of Nebraska City, Otoe county
and the state have honored him by assign
ing him to various positions OF trust and
responsibility. He was a member OF the
board of education for Nebraska City.
He was a delegate in the constitu-
tional convention of 1875. He was
many times chairman of the republican state
convention.
In private and domestic life he was model
of fidelity, industry and temperance. His
love of home and family (Which is primary
patriotism) was only equaled by his love of
his country and its institutions.
In 1898 he was chosen by the republican
party of the state as it's candidate for the
position of governor. He made strong and
very effective canvass, speaking in nearly
every organized county of the common
wealth The labors then performed did much
to undermine his robust and powerful
physique.
Being defeated by Governor Poynter, he
at once became, by pressure of his friends
and admirers, the candidate of the repub'
lican party for a place in the United States
senate, and was, after many ballots, finally
chosen to that honorable position by the leg
slature of Nebraska in January, 1899.
1t seems cruel that just as a man was
entered upon a field of usefulness and emin-
ence towards which his ambition and efforts
have long been directed, he should be
stricken down and all the hopes of his
friends shattered His death, deplored by
family, friends and neighbors as personal
sorrow and irreparable loss, is state and
national calamity.
His steady fidelity to the principles of

by his own ability and force, he was soon
occupying an envable position as an attor-

A New Cure for Idiocy.

How far will science go?
This inquiry is suggested by sight in
the New York papers of a news item
announclng-in the language of the
Sun--that Professor Woolsey, assisted
by Drs. Christian. Wilson and Mutt,
reshaped the skull of an idiot child at
Bellevue yesterday in the hope that it
will develop intelligence. Half hun
dred medical men who witnessed tho
operation believe the result sought for
will be obtained. The subject was Leo
Freedman, years old, whose parents
live at 416 West Fifty-third street.
On April 2S the child was brought to
Bellevue by its mother. who told the
hospital doctors that II had never
shown any signs of intelligence. The
doctors have been dieting the child,
preparing it for the operation. They
concluded that the brain of the child
was too large for the skull and that
parts OF the skull should be removed
to case the brain. Yesterday Profess
sor Woolsey made an incision in the
scalp at the base of the skull and
peeled the scalp as far back as the
forehead. Two pieces of the skull were
then cut out. one on the right side
behind the ear being triangular in
shape, each side OF the triangle meas
uring three inches. a smaller piece OF
the skull on the left side was removed.
This measured TX inches along each
side of the triangle. From each OPEN
ing the doctors removed substances
which seemed to have pressed against
the brain. and then they proceeded to
build up the openings OF the skull,
using strips OF celluloic and making OF
II a lattice work resembling the Gaming
used in chair seats. When this work
was done the scalp was sewed back in
place, and the child was removed from
the operating table to a cot. The doc

Irving an Old Trick,

The resources Of municipal viii
lainy are being marshalcd just now in
a desperate attempt to discredt the
men who are conducting the current
investigation into the methods of gov
ernmcnt in vogue in New York city.
Frank Moss, the counsel for the Mazet
committee, is accused of handling his
witnesses too roughly and the men
associated with him in this probing
enterprise are accused of being in the
work for political purposes only.
Every other possible accusation or in
IuendO is kept busy in the endeavor
to stir up cloud of dust wherewith
to divert :hc attention of the public
from the main subject in hand.
OF course Moss handles his witnesses
roughly; it is the only way TO handle
them. He does not handle them half
so roughly, however, as they handle
themselves or as, in confessional
moods, they handle each other. OF
course the party majority which Great
ed the MGGet committee is in search
of campaign material. That is what
did not act as a check on the other; IL

Crokers gang would show a different
spirit if the tables were turned.
A point which decent people should
keep in mind in this and similar con-
nections is that IL takes real grit and
a fine kind of militant patriotism for
honest men. such as we believe Moss
and his associates to be, 10 90 in
against such strongly entrenched con-
spiracies of plunder as Tammany and
put up a fight in behalf of a public
which the greater part of the time does
not seem to care much whether 1t is
robbed or not. AS Moss himself has
said talking TO young men: "A man
who is struck In battle with a bullet
has the consolation of wearing the
scar with pride in public, but in such
a fight as this a man may be struck
down almost without knowing It and
all his virtue and heroism be conceal
ed"
The man who serves boss Ia reason
ably sure that his reward will be in
proportion to the value OF his service
otherwise the personal dynasties in our
American politics would disintegrate.
But the man who sets out TO do a
work very largely in the interest OF the
general welfare never knows how soon
the flckle public will reward his eer-
vice with jeers and always knows that
the men on whose corns he trods will
treasure their injury until time brings
