 President Mckinley very seldom did this, leaving the question of what to do to a mans own sense of pro- priety. Very few things that Presi- dent Mckinley desired kept secret were ever betrayed, and sometimes matters of great moment were under consideration for weeks before even a hint of them reached the public through the newspapers. Newspaper men around the white house and capi- tol are always active in seeking 'infor- nation on the presidents action and intentions, but they found that men to whom President Mckinley had in- trusted valuable information were true to the trust imposed and did not give the facts away until the right time.

A MANS DOG.
Shows Forth the Nature and Disposition
 of His owner.

of His owner.
 ssOne of the most curious traits to be found in the animal nature, said an observant citizen, sis that which grows. out of unconscious initiative ness of creatures of the lower order. II have observed many instances of where the creatures of lower order have taken on the characteristics, in some noticeable degree, of members ofthe human family. One might know, for instance, the beggar's dog just from the look of the dog, from the dUoop of the eye, the pathetic hang of the lip and certain general air of despondency and helplessness which seems to speak in the very nature of the animal. I mention the beggar's dog because it is a familiar exam ple. The beggar's dog never looks cheerful, never smiles, never frolics, but simply sits by his master and broods and begs for whatever charity may give. I have seen the dog char acter nodded under happier infu ences, and the dog becomes more cheerful. He was light-hearted, free and easy sort of creature, and seemed to get something of the sunnier side of things. I am almost tempted to say that if you will show me mans dog I will tell you what manner of man the owner is, with particular refer ence to temperament and his moods. The melancholy man, the man who groyels mentally along the glpomiest grooves, the pessimistic man who is always looking at the dark side of the picture, all the men who come within these unhappy classifcations rarely own a cheerful dog The dog uncon- sciously takes to the ways of the mas ter, and in his moods initiates the masters way of thinking. But turn fo the dog of the Jolly, cheerful fel- low. Watch him show his teeth in laughter when the master approaches. He is darting across the yard and dancing and frisking around themas- ter's feet in the happiest way imagin- able, and heisu up to all kinds of pranks and does all kinds of little things to indicate the good nature that is in him. He does as his master does, and seems to take the same general view of life. Theseare small thin gs, I guess, but they show just how important one's actions are in life. Every ones way of thinking may influence ones dog and change his whole viewof life" IN. 0. Times-Democrat.

STATE SECRETS.
How They Are Guarded by Officials to
 Whom They Are Intrusted.

President Roosevelt has habit of personally requesting those who at times have conferences with him to refrain from any mention of what took place or what was said. This is particularly true after conferences on various important subjects and is not confined to members of congress. Cab met officers frequently find them selves resting under the request to say nothing, and in this way the pres ident prevents matters of consequence from reaching the public until he has decided on his course of action. On a number of occasions recently, after interviews with public men on the subject of Cuban reciprocity. of the

A Trained Monkey.

One of the astronomers, MT. J. J. Atkinson, who visited Sumatra to ob- serve the total solar eclipse last year made the acquaintance of an old Malay living on a little island near the Sumatran coast who owned large monkey, which he had trained towork for him in gathering cocoanuts. The monkeys business was to climb the gigantic cocoanut palms and throw down the nuts, (which he did" says MT. Atkinson, ''in the most artistic manner, by screwing the nuts off with his powerful arms, while he hung by his legs 70 to 100 feet from the ground"

THE UNIVERSITY AT CAIRO.

Youth from All the Moslern World There
 Study the Koran.
 A queer university this at Cairo, with its 10000 students! It's central square is open to the sun; about tare separate ''riwaks,' or porches, for each of the "A recognized nations of Islam; in each riwak, youth from all the Moslem world study to chant the Koran, to write beautiful Arabic script, and in the end to be doctors, lawyers, kadis, rulers. Each nation has it's own ceremonial way of doing so simple a thing as drinking water. Nor are sect differences a trivial mat ter. The schism between the Sunni and the Stuff is so bitter that each deems it duty to pollute the holy wells and sacred places of the other, though if detected the penalty is death. Minor variations in belief and custom are numberless. There are Moslems who wear the fez, the tur- ban, the tarboosh, or no head cover- ing at all; those who bid women veil themselves and those who do not; those who reek of garlic, and those who hold onions accursed, because, as they claim, Mohammed never ate them. And the plain man needs guid- ance.-The Era.

SLATE CUTTING BY WIRE.
New Process of Quarrying by Which
 Much Blasting Is Saved.

Connected with the Welsh mining industry a notable revolution is be- ing effected, owing to theintroduction of the wire saw, which was recently tested in the Pyrenees and proved a great success.
 At Labassere the saw was first used for the purpose of cutting across the inclined beds of slate, and it severed great blocks without blasting. Prof. Le Neve Foster then suggested to the British government that the saw be tested in North Wales, and the experi- ments which followed showed that slate might be quarried by this new method with conspicuous advantages, among them being large reduction in the cost of working, of explosives and of removing rubbish, less blasting, less waste of good rock and no need of quarrying worthless rock in under ground workings.
 A similar wire saw has been used for some time in Belgium and Italy for the purpose of quarrying marble. It is an endless cord composed of three hard wires twisted together, which is made to travel along by machinery and is fed continuously with sand and water, the sharp particles of sand grad ually cutting groove. As the groove is deepened the cord must necessarily be kept applied to the rock. This is effected by guiding pulleys mounted in pits sunk at the ends of the pro- posed cut.
 The wire saw was applied at Car rara for subdividing blocks of marble, but it did not do good work until MT. A. Monticolo invented an ingenious device which he termed penetrating pulley and by which it is possible to replace the somewhat costly pit by a bore hole three inches in diameter. Since its introduction at Carrara cuts have been made 50 feet long and Is feet deep, and in every other respect also the substitution of bore holes for pits has proved success.-Ilouisville Courier-J Journal.

LESS CROWDED.
London Shows Considerable Improvement
 in the Last Ten Years.

From report by the statistical of- ficer of the London county council upon the new census returns, it ap- pears that overcrowding in the me- tropolis is decreasing, says the Lon don Telegraph.
 In 1891 there were 831 ,66S persons living in 145,844 tenements of less than five rooms. This gives an av- craze of S.99 persons perroom.
 In 1901 there were 726, ,096 persons living in 124,773 tenements of less than five rooms. This gives an av- craze of 2.8S persons perroom.
 Both the amount, therefore, and the density of oyercrowding in such tenements appear to have been, on the whole, reduced since 1891, except in the case of the borough of Stepney. With regard to tenements of more than five rooms:
 In 1891 there were 1,S89, ,475 per sons livingin 30a91S such tenements, thus giving an average of ell persons per tenement.
 In 1901 there were 2,086,752 per sons living in 347516 such tenements, thus giving an Average of six per- sons per tenement.
 There appears, therefore, to have been an increase inl the number of ten ements of more than five rooms, and an increase in the number of persons occupying sucf tenements, but de- crease of Hin the average number .af persnae per tenement. This again points to decrease in the preva- fence of overcrowding since 1891. "We must, however, emphasize the fact" the housing of the working class committee remarks, 'sthat the results arrived at in this report are of a general character, and that the particular results to be hereafter as- certained may not in all cases bear out the general conclusions above noted as to the decrease of oyercrowding." "A fuller report is in preparation.

TWO FOR THE PEN.
Judge Parker Sentenced Two Crimi-
nails at Hjllsboro.

49,
In the district court held at Hills
boro, Judge f. w. Parker presiding,
and Major w. H. H. Llewellyn, district
attorney, Miguel Castillo pleaded gull
ty to murder in the second degree and
was sentenced to SO years in the peni-
Tertiary. On January Is, 1902, he had
been drinking with another placer
miner. Jesus Villanuevo, in a saloon
about a mile from Andrews, Sierra
county. The men had some words be-
fore they left together but later were
heard singing down the road. They
stopped near a house owned by a man
named Sais, who overheard part of
their conversation and also heard a
revolver shot. The next morning, Jesus
Villanuevo was found dead near Sails
place. The evidence against Castillo
was altogether circumstantial but Dis
trict Attorney Llewellyn had woven so
close a net around him that he pleaded
guilty to murder in the second degree
rather than stand trial for murder in
the first degree.
The grand jury indicted Chinese
Joe" for breaking into the house of
Colonel Parker, at Kingston, Sierra
county, and stealing about 800 worth
of supplies. Half an hour after being
indicted Joe was arraigned, pleaded
guilty and was sentenced to one year
in the p~enitentiary.

RACED A CYCLONE.
Exciting Experience of a Passenger
Train in Kansas.


Train in Kansas.
Near Wichita, Kansas, last week in
d a ce between a cyclone and a Santa
Fe passenger train, the latter zane
out about fifty feet ahead after speed
ing twelve miles. Northbound passen-
ger No. 406, due at Wichita at noon
left Arkansas City at 10 o'clock. The
cyclone. which came from the south
west, started in the right of way, and
the race began Immediately.
Conductor Strain says that he imme-
diately locked all doors and windows
to keep passengers from leaping out.
Many women were panic stricken and
tried to leap from the train.
The heat was unbearable. He stood
on the rear platform n could feel a
slight suction of the cyclone as 1t drew
nearer. Engineer Watts pulled his train
at fifty miles an hour, barely keeping
out of the storms clutches. Fireman
johnson was so exhausted when the
train reached Winfield, the cyclone
cloud having shot upward and dissolv-
ed. that he had to be carried from nls
cab. The engineer continued to run to
Newton.
The cyclone covered a path about ff-
ty feet wide, but did no serious dam
age. The track was not displaced. At
times portions of the black cloud would
envelop the train, and when the storm
would lose speed it dropped back
again. All the passengers were badly
frightened.

Leave of meat, potatoes and heavy
body heating foods, and use the food
that will nourish the body and give re-

system.
A most appetizing and healthful
breakfast can be made on Grape-Nuts
and cream. some fruit and perhaps
two soft boiled eggs-this meal will
furnish full strength and nourishment
up to the next and has a remarkable
effect on the body during hot weather.
Remember the cells of the body you
are now building will last you into
summer, SO be sure and build the kind
that tend to keep a cool body and level

One pound of Grape-Nuts has more
nourishment-that the system will alb

out any of the internal heat of meat
that a person wishes to avoid during
the warm season; its rich, nutty flavor
added to the delicate sweet of the
grape sugar makes a Dish pleasing to
the most critical taste.

PRESIDENTIAL TRIP
Trip West viii include Visit to New
Mexico.

mexico.
The Washington Post says. 'Presi-
dent Roosevelt will visit San Antonio
some time this fall. Representative
Slayden today called on the President
and invited him to attend the great
fair in that city, which begins on Octo-
Der IL. The president told Representa-
tive Slayden that he would go to a
Antonio. but that for certain reasons
he could not tell just when his visit
there could be maze.
Delegate Rodey also invited the
president to attend the territorial fair
at Albuquerque on October 13. II the
president should be able to accept this
invitation he will probably do so as an
extension of his trip to San Antonio,
which will be one stop in a trip
through the south. during which the
president will make addresses at a
number of public gatherings.
1T has also been decided that Presi-
dent Roosevelt shall visit Iowa. He
will attend a large convention to be
held during the month of September in
one of the principal cities, and will
probably go there from Springfield,
where he has promised to attend the
Illinois state fair.
These trips, while they are not pri-
marily political junkets, will be of con-
siderable Importance to the republican
side of the congressional campaigns"
