Where Is His Authorize

Here comes in a question that is he
ing asked: Where did Mr.. Skeen get bis
authority to lease the property
The board apparently merely author-
lied him TO advertise the property for
sale
Next comes the lease made with thu
county attorney. The terms Of the
document provide that the lease was
Tor two years. and says nothing about
its being void in case of sale of tba
property Furthermore, the lease was
on the entire property
JAN 10 Mr.. Skeen reported to tbe
board the sale of the property to tbA
Corey Bros. company for 81 500. and
further that $1,000 had been agreed upon
as the rental, and that s., 600 had been
paid.

Governor Roosevelt began his cam
paign in Kentucky at O'Clock, making
an address at Henderson. A large
crowd greeted the governor, who was
escorted from the train by prominent
Kentucky politicians. Governor Roose-
welt said in part:
I'm this campaign I feel that I have
a right to appeal to you on more than
one issue. I believe emphaticaHy in
sound currency, expansion and in the
hOnOring of the flag and most of all,
in orderly liberty under the law, which
lies at the foundation of our institu-
tions.
At Madisonville he made a brief ad-
dress, but could scarcely speak above a
whisper. He said in part:
There are many issues at stake in
this contest of vital Importance TO the
people. 1t is of the utmost Importance
that we should have sound currency
and that we should preserve the con-
ditiOns that have told for our material
importance to keep undimned the hon
of the earth and, greater yet to pre-
serve the principles that lie at the root
Of sound government"
At Guthrie, Russellville and Bowling
Green crowds of considerable size were
at the respective places of speaking.
In each place Governor Roosevelt made
an appeal for an honest count of bal
lots, told humorous stories and on &C
count of the condition of his throat
introduced Curtis Guild, who was re-
ceived enthusiastically. At Bowling
Green w. g. P. Breckenridge also
made an address.

At the close of the address Colonel
Roosevelt spoke in front of the Audi
tOrium, building with a seating ca
pacity of 10000, to a crowd as large
as that which filed the structure, and
which had fingered throughout the
main speech.

AT the yari he found a special train
just ready t. so to the scene of the ac-
cident. 1t consisted of q wrecaing car,
a caboose ard one coach with tender
and engine. He mounted the engine
with feeling that it was a little near
er the fatal spot and would reach there
first. At the last minute no more def
mite news concerning the particular
persons killed and injured had been re-
ceived.
MI. Hardy felt almost glad Of the I'M
certainty as the engine pulled out and
started on it's run of Is miles, soon at
tanning a speed of SO miles an hour.
The snow was falling in large, moist
flakes. 1t was growing warmer and
would rain before morning. He gazed
at the narrow band of ligAf on the
track ahead and leaned forward as if
to help the engine go faster. He did
not speak, and so the train rushed
through the night.
And so the second of Robert Hardy

The Elixir Vita

Professor Metschnikoff, Of the
Pasteur Institute, has just made
communication to the Academy OF
Medicine which shows that bis dis.
covery OF principle whereby the
organs of the human body may be
rejuvenated has taken a step for
ward.
A lymph prepared by Professor
Metschuikolf has been employed in
certain cases Of leprosy treated at
the Institute, and so relieved the
patients that they begged for a con-
tinuation OF the treatment.
Prof. Metschnikoff does not, how
ever, think his serum possesses all
the specific quail ties requisite. At
the same time the experiments
proved that the red globules OF the
blood we're regenerated, greatly to
the advantage of the lepers: and
this result in the case OF an implaca-
BILE malady authorises the greatest

Whom the Coal Supply Fails

When the coal supply fails, says
writer in the Leisure Hour, the
heat OF the sun, or the tides of the
ocean, may perhaps be utilised, or,
as Sir William Preace recently
pointed out, the waste store OF en-
iergy existing in the heated interior
OF the earth may be drawn upon. In
descending from the Surface OF the
globe. the temperature becomes hot
ter, until at distance OF about two
miles the degree at which water
boils is reached.
BY suitable thermo electric APP
planes it would not be impossible
to use this internal heat to produce
electric currents and thus convert
the Loaf energy Of the earth's in
terior into useful form.
Another possible source OF energy
in the future is the ether which per-
meates and surrounds everything,
which transmits the signals OF the
wireless telegraph, and which we
are only now beginning to know.

Those Fire claims.

WASHINGTON, Sapt. ll.-Claims ag-
gregating $2,500,000 or more have
arisen in connection with the efforts
made principally in Hawaii to pre-
vent the bubonic plague from secur-
ing foothold in this country and
It's outlying possessions by burning
down e considerable part OF the
Japanese and Chinese quarters,
where it was thought the disease
might find some lodging
Two Japanese residents are said
to have lost their lives, furniture and
practically all belongings. The loss
il estimated at $30O,500. The Chi
pess loss was estimated at about
100000. The Japanese Consul
General at Hawaii first brought the
matter to the attention OF the Ha-
waiian authorities, asking that the
losses incurred By the Japanese sub
iects be reimbursed to them. Presi-
lent Mckinley gave the necessary
authority to Governor Dole TO ap-
point a commission OF five members
to pass upon all claims OF this ma
ture, but on objection of the claim
ants this fell through. The author
tiles here feel that it is a matter
which Hawaii should adjust, and
moreover there i, no fund available
for such losses. The subject is under
consideration, however, and 1T is
hoped some means may be adopted
by cooperation OF Washington and
Honolulu for adjusting the matter

Maui Politics.

John Wise returned this morning
from Maui after making a visit TO
that island and Molokai in the in
tert st OF the Democratic party. Mr..
Wise together with Colonel John
Richardson were refused a permit TO
visit the Leper Settlement, by the
Board Of Health. 1t was learned,
however, that Mr.. ID. X. Kahaulelio,
a republican candidate for legisla-
tive bonors, had visited the Leper
Settlement three times recsntly and
been permitted to address the peo-
pie, John Wise and Colonel
Richardson boarded the Lehua
went to Kalaupspa, where, from a
boat they addressed large gather
ing 81 the residents OF The Settle
ment, among whom there are about
400 voters. Tho people expressed
themselves loyal to the Democratic
Independent fusion party and will
materially assist in the defeat OF tho
Republican candidates on Maui.
When John Wise heard OF the
acceptance by Prince David for
nomination as Delegate to Congress
he was jubilant and said that now
he will work twice as hard for the
Democrats as has he has done here
tofore. Aud that means a good
deal.
As far as the outlook on Maui
goes, Wise says that the Republic.
ans are not in it. There were reasons
to believe that Wilcox would con-
troll the election at one time but
now he is thoroughly discredited
aud his bert friends have declined
to support his insane aoti haole,
home rule policy. Maui will elect
good, honest men and not bother
much about national issues.
