The Bourbon Mirror says Chas.
COar had narrow escape from freez-
ing to death one night during the re-
cent cold spell. He visited in Bre-
men one evening, and when returning
he encountered snow drifts to such an
extent that he was thrown from the
sleigh four times before he reache
Mrs. John Slough's house. When he
did reach her home his horse was so
stiff from cold that it could hardly
walk, and Charlie was so frozen he
could not put it up. Arthur Slough
took care of them both and they re-
manned all night.

The Fort Wayne Sentinel and the
Journal of that city, are having an
interesting discussion. The Sentinel
declares that the time has arrived when
democrats cannot nominate drunkards
for Office without imperiling their
their election, and demands that
no man who is In the habit of becom-
ing intoxicated shall be put on the
democratic county ticket. The Jour-
nal fears that if the line is drawn in
accordance with the wishes of the
Sentinel Allen county's democratic
majority will be reduced. 1t is evil
dent however, that the time is near at
hand when the voters OF all political
parties will demand that public Of
6cers shall be sober men. All the
large railroad companies require this
now. and the people should demand as
good service as the railroads.

STRENUOUS KIDS
How the Roosevelt Children Find
Amusement in the White House.

AtuuSSinSut III tne WHitS tlOuSS.
While thePresident and Mrs. Roose-
velt were in Groton attending Theo-
dore Junior during his critical illness
the other Roosevelt children had the
run of the white house. Miss Alice
Roosevelt and her aunt, Miss Carew,
were there to hold them in, but were
not very successful. Bright and early
on the morning the President started
for Groton Archibald appeared in the
public reception room and announced
to the white house employees that if
they would accompany him to the red
DOM he would show them how
Kubelik acted the day he gave a
recital at the white house. No one
accepted the invitation, but shortly
from the red room came a series of
the most fearful crashes ever given
out by tortured piano. When Pinck-
ney reached the spot he found Archie
using tennis racket for violin and
at the same time bringing forth
amazing sounds from the piano with
such portions of his anatomy as were
available for pounding the keys.
Shortly afterward Kermit demanded
of Assistant Secretary Loeb that the
horses be ordered out SO that he could
hitch them to his fire engine.

Of $3.50, 100000 This is the biggest
export year in the history Of the coun-

as exports, are now listed as domestic
trade, which would tend to make the
