The Sultan stopped Drinking Milk.
In the opinion of the sultan of
Turkey fresh milk is a most bene.
fetal aid to good health, and up to a
short time ago he was in the habit
Of drinking large quantities of it
every day. Each morning the cows
were brought in front of his windows
to be MIXED in order that there
would be no mistake about the milk
being fresh and pure. Some evil
minded official, however, quietly hint
ed to his majesty one day that his
method of obtaining fresh milk gave
anyone wishing to poison him an OPP
portunity of feeding the COWS on some
noxious food. After that warm,
fresh milk was tabooed by Turkeys
monarch. Times-Herald.

Grand Tower, Ills, May l4.-The
steamer City of Paducah sank in rs
feet of water at 9: IS p. M, in less than
five minutes after striking a snag,
while backing from Brunkhorst Land

and the hurricane deck are above
water, which reaches to the skylights
of the cabins. All the staterooms are
completely filled with water.
The steamer drifted third of a
mile below the landing before she
sank. The first mate says the boat
went down within three minutes after
striking the snag. He was on the cab
in deck and escaped by climbing
through the skylight. It is supposed
that most of the missing deck hands,
who were on the lower deck, were
washed down the river. The boat lies
down about 100 feet from the Illinois
shore, the fore part of the hurricane
deck being under water. She appears
to be total wreck. ...~.- =: .::.rsis ~. :

been running for several months and
the roof was as dry as finder. The
building was. soon in ashes and the
fire swept across a dock to. where

Despite efforts to save her this craft

to the Detroit department, which re-

From the Brownlee property the

which the Western Union Telegraph
company used as storage point for
their cedar telegraph poles. The
yard Is the distributing point for 10
states and over 100000 poles were
stored there The fire swept through
the great yard, which comprises about
eight acres, in less than two hours,
but the poles blazed for hours after
wards. The streams from the fireboat
Battle were centered on this yard, but
they had no effect in staying the
flames: The 4-inch streams were
turned into steam almost before they
reached the burning piles Of poles. =
The plant of the Maltby Lumber
company was the last one on the river
bank and it was soon destroyed, to-
gether with a large stock of cedar
poles, which was stored in the yard.
When darkness fell the glare from
the burning poles Illuminated the sky
for miles. The firemen worked on the
fire almost all night, but it was only
to keep it from spreading to other
property, for they realized that 1t
would simply have to burn itself out
in the Western Union storage yards.
While this fire was burning the
lumber yard of G. A. Raupp & Co. in

An ugly DuelinR Traredy.

The dueling practice has just led to
an ugly tragedy in a German garrison
in Lorraine. A duel was arranged be-
tween two officers, but never took
place because brother of one went
and murdered the other officer in cold
blood. The murderer gave himself up
and explained that as his brother, a
man with family, would have been
killed in the duel, he, single man, had
elected to die in his place, even as a
murderer.-N. Y. Sun.

THE JULY COSMOPOLITAN.

The midsummer fiction number of the
July Cosmopolitan contains the best
story Bret Hartc has written in Il long
time. The well-known Jack Hamlin i,
the hero. and he will be eagerly wei
coined back by the public. Desperate
and gambler that he is. theoretically we
ought not to like him. but he has that
fine courage too rarely met with i'm real
life or In fiction. and those who read "a
Mercury of the Foothills" will probably
lose sight of his faults in following the
events which take place upon that
heavenkissing hill" Katrina Trask's
story In the same number should he
read by every woman, 1t Is one of those
hOmely tragedies constantly going on
in modern society. 1t Is probably the
cleverest piece of work Mrs. Trask has
ever done. X. X. Munkittrick's quaint
New England coast yarn has a breezi-
ness about it that makes 1t really re-.
freshing. The July installment of
Egerton Castles story begins to raise
the curtain on the inevitable ruin which
the Duke of Cluny's weakness must
bring on those who love him.

HAhNA IS IMPOSSIBLE.

II the persons who are talking of the
nomination of Mark Hanna as the next
Republican candidate for the Presi-
dency are taking themselves or their
proposition seriously 1t Is time for some
one TO jolt them with few hard facts
and awaken them out of their dreams
The Hanna proposition, which was
originally advanced In a spirit of ban
ter, was entertaining enough rs joke
but Republican convention which
should take II as anything other than
that would be embarking on an eX-
tremely dangerous experiment. The
American people still have ideals as to
the Presidency and they still demand
a President capable at least In some
degree of administering that high office
as statesman. Senator Hanna Is an
able business man. He Is clever in
the management Of the kind Of politics
they have In Ohio. He Is as restlessly
energetic and aggressive little man
as ever trotted around to committee
meetings at national convention. He
is jolly and good.tempered and plump.
He Is of genial nature and would rath-
er see all people as comfortable as
himself II things could be fixed that
way. And he is a most luminous exam
pie Of what statesman Is not. If he
has ever planned large stroke of pol
icy, II he has ever taken to heart the ad-
vocacy of great cause, If he has ever
taken of his own initiative a position
on broad grounds of national policy,

MR.. HiBBARD STATES FACTS.

Angus =. Hibbard. the General Man
ager of the Chicago Telephone Com
pany. in an interview takes issue with
the statements that his company is
charging "extortionate" rates for tele-
phone service.
1T Is source of regret to the Chi
cago Telephone Company" he says.
that misstatements continue to be
made about the rates charged for its
service. The city authorities. the
daily press and many others who are
interested In the matter have shown
from time to time that instead of an
advance in rates charged In Chicago
there has been n constant decrease i'm
the average rate paid by subscribers
since 1896. In the last three years the
average annual rate paid by those using
telephones has been reduced about $50.
During the last year and half the
company has been engaged I'm the con-
struction of six tireproof exchange
buildings and the installation of the
most modern operating appliances. The
underground cables leading from these
offices make II necessary to include
subscribers within the district of each
exchange under its name and number.
This necessarily results in changing
subscribers numbers when they are
50 affected by location. Not only have
the electrical and mechanical appli.
ances for performing the best kind of
tnl ,t,
during the past six years. but for the
greater accommodation of the public
and the wider use of the telephone the
rate plans have been changed also.
Ten years ago an annual rent was
charged for telephone without any
regard to the amount of use of such a
line. The smallest merchant then paid
just as much as the largest. although
the latter used his telephone many
times more. To meet the requirements
of the small user measured rates were
introduced by the company more than
two years ago. Under these n direct
line telephone Of the best kind Is had
mt $40 per annum. and two-party
line at $50 In places of business. About
5000 people now avail of this service.
still later the plan which has proved
more popular than any other for small
users of the service. |. e.. the plan of
paying for the service at the time It Is
rendered, was introduced in Chicago.
and since last October about 1000
nickel-inihe-slot instruments have been
put IN service and are now being In.
stalled at the rate of 100 or more a
day. These enable the smallest mer-
chant to avail of telephone service to
suit his requirements mt a cost as low
rs 10 cents a day, ana In private resi-.
dence at cost rs low as 3 cents a day;
cents being paid for each call when
1t Is made. The number of people who
pay a higher rate than 1925 per annum
Is very limited. These people are
among the heaviest users and get more
for their money than any other class

ule of rates, extending from 3 cents q
day to $l75 per annum. will show that
It Is providing the service ut low and
equable rates to meet the requirements
of all classes.

If. in short. he himself represents any
thing ut all save Mark Hanna and the
fostering of the interests of great cor
porate wealth. the fact has yet to he
discovered.
1t is not to senator Hanna's discredt
that he Is not man of large caliber.
There are many good men of small cal.
iber and narrow outlook. They are not
the men for the Presidency. The in
iudicious friends who are suggesting
Hanna for that position are making a
woeful mistake if they suppose that his
undoubted popularity in his party is
based upon the profound respect with
which Americans must regard the man
whom they select for the Presidency.
There are some ideals left as to that
position and the idea of Mark Hanna
in the former Office of Washington.
Jefferson and Lincoln does not CORE
spond with those ideals.
The a-for-President'' joke
should be dropped once for all.-News.
