L, f. Wiley Would Like to Find the
sample Man.

L. F. Villers Of 615 st. Francis avenue
was on the war path yesterday. Ear'y
in the morning some man came along
with samples of Nine O'clock Washing
Tea and threw a package on the front
porch Of his home. His u-months old
baby was playing on the porch and he
got hold of the package and like all bah
les put 1t into his mouth the first thing.
The I've in the powder burned his mouth
terribly and he is suffering greatly from
the effects Of the stun. A doctor was
nailed and did all he could to relieve the
pain, but the skin was taken off the
tongue and the sides of the mouth. Mr..
Killers says he would like TO find out
that fellow and he promises the man
most interesting time if he should get his
hands on him.

tion indefinitely postponing all bills and
resolutions on the subject, and the Ad-

quoted authority showing it was a

Mr.. Kitchener said he had field
to put in corn. Had lined most of

features of the Easter Ladies' Home
Journal is the opening installment
of FL lien Keller's own story of her
life. The fact that this, and all the
autobiography which is to follow,
were actually written by the won,
derful girl herself is only equaled
by the remarkable literary merit
of her production. There is a
delightful personal article about

"The Man on Horseback"

Henry Watterson, the fiery editor of
the Louisville Courier Journal, in a
speech at the banquet Of the Virginia
Democratic Association, held in Wash
ington this week, pays his respects to
President Roosevelt and his party in
pointed and vigorous language. The fol-
lowing are extracts from Mr.. Watterson's
speech
I'VE love our country. Our hearts
beat true to its institutions. We would
rescue the Government from the hands
of those who are converting it into Gov
ernment of the Trusts for the Trusts and
by the Trusts, and restore it to the hands
of those who will have some regard for
the rights of the people. The republican,
party is syndicated party. Arbitrary
power is its motor, the Almighty dollar
its trademark. If it be not checked in
the gait it is going it will in the end sure
ly Mexicanize the Republic.
"Once again in the White House we
have the Man OIL Horseback. Affecting
the simplicity Of the cowboy, he conceals
beneath the self-confdepce and queer
manners of the broncho buster, the senti-
ments and ambitions, if not the talents,
of Daz To him, little thing like
treating an admiral of the navy, wearing
the laurel leaves of imperishable renown,
as if he were baby in arms, now to be
handled and now to be spanked, is merely
an undress affair begun and ended during
off moments between breakfas and
luncheon.
ITO him the reprimandiug of the Lieu
tenant General of the army, grown gray
in the fighting Of the battles of his coun-
try, becomes all amusing horseplay,
meant, to relax his muscles and illustrate
his high mightiness, whilst warning lesser
officers of the army to obey orders and
say nothing.
Gas these things go forward, partaking
somewhat of the character of feats to di-
vert and blinds to hoodwink public opin-
ion, bill of army reorganization is pre-
pared and urged upon Congress, which,
if it becomes law, will make the power
of the President absolute, and which it is
not too much to say ought to be entitled

Yesterday afternoon dismissed the injunction suit
brought by the Crawford Asphalt Company against
of Public Works Redfield restraining them from
carving out the contracts recently awarded the
Interstate Paving Company for the paving with
ssphat of fifteen streets in the Borough of Brook

between the Asphalt Trust and the Interstate Paw
ing Company. A large part of the work under
taken by the Interstate company held up
while the suit being tried. the exceptions
being in the cases Of the paving of Third-ave and
Decatur-st This work continued with the
consent of Justice Gaynor, who granted to the
Crawford Asphalt Company the injunction against
the borough authorities The rest of the work will
be prosecuted without further delay. as il is not
thought the Crawford company will appeal.
Borough President SwanStrom yesterday opened
bids for asphalting a large number OF streets in
different sections of the borough. and never before
were there many bidders was the price so
mated cost of the work advertised yesterday. On
account however. of the lively competition be-
tween the rival asphalting firms a much larger
amount OF work can be done
The Crawford Asphalt Company In most instances
was the lowest bidder and is expected TO receive
cents yard and 81 40 for concrete foundation: The
bid of the Interstate Paving Company was 81 W a
ward for asphalt and IS for concrete foundation
Mr. Swanstrom said he gratifed to see so
many bidders and the price Of the work reduced
He was satisfied that the Asphalt Trust had been
broken and that hereafter the work would be done
for much less than was paid by the last ADMIN
