VALUE OF TESTIMONY.
Greater Than Assertion.

There is none of us so hardened but
that when we have been able to aid our
fellow creatures by comforting a benefit
or bringing a little comfort into their
lives we like to have appreciation
shown. This generally affords more
pleasure than the performance of the
oct itself, and In this connection the
following letter from Paris, Texas,
lady is of more than usual interest:

result of the count shows that Smith Is
renominated. In the Forty-first district
the race for the senate was known to be
close between w. d. Washburn Jr. and
Senator George P. Wilson. 1t was ex-
pected that Washburn would win out,
but the count gave the nomination to
Wilson by a good majority.
There were a number of surprises in
some of the other legislative districts.
In the aldermanic contests the winners
in the different events had been practl-
cally picked some time ago, so that there
were few surprises,

one. Approximately there were $4,000
votes cast of which 10000 were Re

DIR. AMEs IS pEPosEp.
State of Indiana Refuses to Grant Him
PHYSICIANS Permit.


1t has been learned from Indiana, by
way of Indianapolis, that DR.. Ames has
been deposed as house physician of the
great million dollar Sinclaire hosiery at
West Baden
1t is said that DR.. Dineen, of the In
diana medical board, has informed DR..
Ames that for him to attempt to practice
medicine in the state without permit
is liable to cost him anywhere from $25
to 5000. Upon receiving this information
it is said that DR.. Ames pulled down his
Single.
1t has been stated that the reason for
the Indiana state medical board in re-
fusing to grant DR.. Ames a permit, that
the board wished him to show them that
>he was not fugitive from justice, and
that he is man of good moral charac-
ter.
The mayor still maintains to the news
paper men who call on him, that it is
his intention to return to Minneapolis and
face the charges against him, but that
he will fight extradition as long as he
thinks it will interfere with his health
physical well being.

Members Over Seventy to Be Paid
Their Insurance Claims,

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Sept. IT,
About two thirds of the constitution of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men has been finally acted upon by
the convention in session here. The
first important change recommended
was the substitution of the word "en-
gineman" for the word fireman" as it
appears in the preamble. This in
cludes both fireman and engineer and
admits the two on the same footing.
1t was decided to increase the re-
serve fund Of the brotherhood from
100000 to $25O,OOO. This increase is
made necessary by the great growth
of the order and was recommended by

cided to pay every member of the

of age the full amount of his insurance

beneficiaries several thousand dollars
at once and from new on large
amount yearly.
