Rowdy baseball Helping Col.

A peculiar circumstance has con-
tributed to COLTS popularity and that
Is the rowd .sm that brou hit baseball
into disrepute. There is no contest
that equals the great American game.
It has the snap, the science, the skill
and every feature that appeals to the
quick appreciation and nervous de-
mands OF the average American. But
Americans do not like profanity, and
the better classes Of them are opposed
to paying good money to be disguised
by the bad manners and worse Ian
guage of hired ruflians. Turned from
the ball games, thousands OF these
men have sought other recreation,
and have found it in golf. Some time
in the future baseball will be rescued
from its low condition and there will
be the mightiest revival ever known
in the history of sport. May the day
be FASTENED, philadelphia Times.

shoe manufacturers have been try
Ing hard for four years to drive tan
and colored shoes out OF the market"
said a Chestnut street dealer, "and
they have made an ignominous failure
OF II. The boom in cheap patent leath-
ers. which was started purposely to
squeeze the tan shoes from the market
has almost collapsed. Many factories
did not send out samples Of colored
shoes for this seasons trade, but sent
patent leather samples instead The
manufacturers who did not make this
mistake are the men who are getting
the summers business. Men like tan
shoes and that's all there is about 1t.
Women are not so fond of them be
cause they are more trouble to keep
clean. philadelphia Times.

LIBEL SUIT.
Audrain Man TestifieS Sam
Cooks Letter.

Independence, Mo-, Dee. T.
This morning, in the Office of Al
bert NJ. OFT, notary public, the
taking of dispositions in the libel
suit of w. o. Cardwell, former
member of the State Legislature, IA
gainst the st. Louis Republic for
the publication Of n letter from
Sam b. Cook, secretary of State,
denouncing Cardwell as an I'M
worthy person, was resumed.
Ex-Gov. Lon V. Stephens, Ed
T. Orear and others were eXamln-
ed. Gov. Stephens testified con
corning the interest taken by Cook
in the passage of the breeders
law. The governor said Cook was
on the ground looking after the
measure, and that he (Cook) had
told him that the signing of the
bill meant n great deal to him in Il
financial way. The governor also
testified that j. NJ Seibcrt, the
present chairman of the Demo
cratic State central committee, had
told him that money was received
from the brewers for campaign
purposes in 1898.
Rev. James Bradley, ii Baptist
minister of Audrain county, was
the first witness called. He rep
resented his county in the lcgis-
lature in 1897 and was chaplain of
the senate in 1890. He said Sam
b. Cook asked him to vote for the
breeders bill.
Frank Z. Walsh, Cardwell's at
torney, asked; "Did yOu ever see
Il telegram from Sam b. Cook to
Mr.. Clark in 1899 in reference to
the st. Louis street railway con
solidation bill9" This is the bill
of the st. Louis Transit company,
which Mr.. Walsh has cndcavorrd
to connect with the Sc, 900 contri-
button of Judge III. 5. Priest, at
torney for the company, to the
State committee.
The witness answered YVES, y
and upon inquiry testified that the
telegram asked Mr.. Clark to give
the bill his earnest support, and
that the bill was passed before
supper at the afternoon session of
the House. The bill had already
passed the senate. 1t was Mr.
Bradley's opinion that Mr.. Clark
did not vote at all on the bill.
Ed II. Orear, the next witness,
superintendent of insurance under
Stephens, was asked whether he
had asked Cook to report the
Phelps contribution of 1000 in
some other name. Orrar said he
had not asked him. Cook sent
for him to come to st. Louis. He
met Cook with Stone, Cook told
them that Phelps had given $4,000
to clear up all the debts. "My
recollection" he said, "ls that
Gov. Stone said it would bc I'M
proper to report the Phelps con-
tribution in the name of Col.
Phelps because Mr.. Phelps repre-
scented corporations, We finally
agreed that if Mr.. Phelps was will
ing it might be best to use some
other name. Mr.. Cook went to
Col. Phelps, and | was told later
that Mr.. Phelps consented
Orear said that he was not at
st. Louis as the personal repre-
sentative of Gov. Stephens and hC
did not know whether Stephen,
heard of it until he told him about t
year later. He did not tell him
until a year or more after the close
of the campaign.

The Land OF Earthquakes.

There are certain generally accepted
conclusions which are entirely wrong.
One OF these is as TO the land OF the
most frequent earthquakes. Ask al
most any person and he will tell you
that most earthquakes are in Japan;
but he is wrong 1t seems as though
we hear more about earthquakes at or
near Japan than at any other place,
but when the facts are tabulated we
find that Greece is far ahead OF Japan.
The latest complete reports cover pc
riod OF six years from 1898 to 1898
and during that time 3,1S7 earthquakes
occurred in Greece and about one-half
of that number in Japan. The island
OF Zanta alone had 2,0lS shocks during
the six years.

NOT A SUCCESSFUL TYpE.sETTER

Ii is often said that one difference be-
tween men and women is that with
men second thoughts are best, while
women are more likely to be right
when they act or speak upon the first
impulse: but there are some things
which even clever women cannot do
perfectly without some preliminary
practice, says Tit Bits.
A lady whose husband is the editor
of a very small country paper said to
him one day: 'sType-setting looks so
easy, know I could do it just as well
as anything. Let he help"
Although the editor is his own fore
man and composltor, he didn't accept
this offer at once. But his wife was in
the Office alone when a wedding no.
tice was brought in.
sOh - she said, gleefully, "I'll just
set this up and slip in the form, and
won't George be surprised when he
sees it in print %
It therefore appeared as follows IN
the next issue of the paper;
