 ''I like Spokane" Sholto said, ''and am going to buy a saloon if I'm not given too much notoriety, don't you know. I want to live here. I like the town, but everywhere I go the bloomin' western newspapers write me up."
 Lord Sholto was former resident of Arizona and lived for a time at Kirkland with his wife, Lady Doug las. The "bloomin' western papers wrote him pretty plenty" during his sojourn in Arizona and California.

FayorS Killing old People.

"A man should be dragged out and shot when he has reached the age ot forty five years. He bas outlived his usefulness. He is dead timber in the pathway of progress, under modern industrial conditions. We suggest that law be drafted and submitted to the legislature for passage which shall provide that all persons be shot at the age of forty five years unless they can show that they have enough property saved up to keep them dur ing the rest of their natural lives"
 This was the way the serious ques- tion of age limit for mechanics and labOrers was one of the speakers at a meeting of the Chicago Federation of Labor recently. Some of the rail roads and large manufacturing estab- now rcfu-c to hire man over thirty five years oid, and me- chauics are discharged at the age of forty five years by these concerns be- cause they are too old. MacEinists. and other trades testified that similar age limit waS being en- forced by various classes of employ CTS.

ATRUE BLUE REPUBLICAN.

The Phenix Gazette, of which United States Marshal NJ. H. McCord is editor, replying to some of his democratic critics in the matter of the appointment of B. F. Daniels as U. s. marshal says: "The editor of this paper is not nursing any sore head, because first, he has not any, and sec ond, he wouldn't if he had. Presi- dent Mckinley appointed him to be United States marshal and it was purely personal appointment. President Roosevelt is president and had the same right, to make a per sonal appointment as President Me Kinley had. We have the best of reasons for knowing that President Roosevelt had no objection to us as a man or as an officer. He simply wanted to give his frienda job and he did it. If anybody thinks the editor ot the Gazette IS a kind ot a republl- can that sulks in his tent because he didn't get an office they would be un- deceived when the next election comes around" He also adds: "If the Tucson Star or the Courier of Prescott, both of whom have asserted that the Gazette is opposing the con- firmation of MT. B. F. Daniels for United States mal shal, will point out a single paragraph or line from the editorial columns of this paper that will bear out their assertion in this respect We will buy them bottle of champagne and box of cigars, and they may divide the gift to suit their tastes.

"A Husbands Mistake.

E The production, last evening at the opera house of "A Husbands Mis- take," under the auspices of the Women's Relief Corps, was decided success. The play was we'll cast and the various ones taking part acquit- ted themselves like real actors and actresses, although with exception of Leon Hahn, they are all amateurs. Mir. Hahn took the part of the hus- band who was guilty of making the mistake of trying to dicipline his young wife and in doing so got into all sorts of trouble and had the tables turned on him. Mir. Hahn gave a very vivid portrayal of the various emotions, experienced by a man who had brought down upon him all sorts of trouble through a combination of unforeseen circumstances.
 His Uncle John," as represented by Jules Baumann was a we'll sus- tained character. Mrs. w. w. Wander bilt, as the wife of the husband who made the mistake and Mrs. R. M. Ling as their ward with numerous suitors for her hand, did some very clever acting, rendering their parts with as much ease and grace as though it was their usual calling. Miss Emanuel played the part of servant to perfection, while MT. Par sons, as a suitor for the hand of the young lady played the part well.
 Miss Maud Hanna sang solo very sweetly and received an encore, while MT. Tregallis, in a speciality brought down the house, receiving an en- thusiastic encore. Dan O'Neil gave an exhibition of some excellent danc- ing, introducing different phases of this art than has been seen on the stage there fore some time.
 The entertainment was well attend ed and gave good satisfaction to all present, and the Women's Relief Corps received a nice benefit from it. The play was produced under the di- rection of NIT. Hahn and the orches- tra was composed of Messrs Watkins and Emanuel.

HARLAN STOPS FIGHT
SUPREME COURT JUSTICE HAS
GRIT AND STRENGTH.
College Youngsters No Match for the
Eminent Jurist and Golf Player.
Dragged Leader from
His Followers.

Washington, Oct. 2S-Justice Harlan
of the United States Supreme Court. who
is member of the faculty of the Column
bia University law school in this city,
last night interfefed and prevented a
class fight between the freshmen and
sophomores.
Justice Harlan is a giant in stature
and although 60 years of age. he is still
vigorous and active, golf being one of
his daily exercises. The youngsters were
no match for him when he entered the
arena.
The anticipated contest was the result
of the announcement of the freshman
last night in Jurisprudence Hall. This
announcement acted as a suggestive chal-
lepge to the sophomores to break up the
meeting If possible. After the regular
lecture of the evening. the first year men
undertook to open their meeting. when
the sophomores made a charge against
the door of the hall.
At this point Justice Harlan appeared,
and, in a commanding voice. ordered the
combat to cease. The sophomores paused
for moment, but were evidently not dis
posed to obey the order, for they imme-
diately began a second assault. 1t was
then that the eminent jurist took per-
sonal hand in the fray. He reached over
the heads of the assaulting party, and,
seizing the leader of the forces zy the
collar dragged him from the pile.
The jurist then directed the second
year men to dispense, with the desired
effect.

out Conflicting With the
Fifteenth Amendment.

birmingham, Oct. 23.-(Special.)-A spe-
rial to The Birmingham News from Eu-
taw, Ala, says:
Senator f. W. Pettus made an address
at the court house of this place yester-
day. There was a good number of peo-
ple present. Judge T. w. Coleman, in in
Producing Senator Pettus said that he had
the pleasure of introducing one who had

state who was esteemed by his people,

took up the new Constitution, stating
that before that instrument was framed
he had not believed that its aim could
be accomplished, owing to the fifteenth
amendment of the Constitution of the

credit to its wise makers and with pleas

referring to the professed alarm of

like Pharisees, look back over their

lowing incident in the history of the city
of Washington: Soon after the war the
negroes focked to Washington, and it
was not long until they were so numer-
Gus that they were power in politics.
The government of the city grew to be
very bad, and as the only way out of the
5iNicultv Congress, which was then al
most entirely Republican. passed a bill
dIsfranchising any and all human beings
from voting in Washington, which has

GOVERNOR JELKS COMMENTS
ON COOKIES ADDRESS.
Alabama's Chief Executive Sur
prised to Find a Defender Of
the Political Debauchery of
Reconstruction Period.

Birmingham, Oct. 23-(Special.)-The
Birmingham Age-Herald of this date con-
tains the following:
Governor William Dorsey Jelks arrived
in Birmingham last night from Mont
gomery and Is at the Metropolitan Hotel
He is accompanied by j. Kirk jackson,
his Secretary.
The Governor was asked If he had read
the recent address of Chairman ]. Carter
Cook of the Republican State Campaign
Committee, and what he had to say in re-
gard to it. In reply Governor Jelks said:
Yes. 1 have read the address and
have noted what he had to say about
the State debt and the liability therefor.
Governor Parsons was provisional gov
ernor of Alabama. He served for a few
months, until December 20, 1866. Governor
Patton was then elected Governor under
the Constitution adopted in 1866. His term
of office should have begun on Decem-
Der 10 of that year. but Parsons refused
to give up the executive Office until De-
cember %. He held on, under advice from
Washington, until that time. Patton
served until July. 1868. The Legislature
of 1861 authorized the States credit to
railroad companies under certain condi-
tons. Afterwards the Republican Legis-
lature amended those conditions and il
was under the amended legislation that
the State endorsed the railroad bonds
When the war closed the debt of the
State of Alabama, accumulated through
fifty years OF Statehood, was 50. AS, 0OO
The Patton Legislature authorized the
issuance of $1,5O0,00O of bonds and again
of S603.0O of bonds. OF this 81, 1O3 900 only
s., $3.50 900 were issued.
This amount of money was used to
pay the interest on the State debt a
large part of which was held in New
York. none Of which had been paid since
the beginning of the war. A part of this
State debt. amounting to 1885, 600, was
held in London. The State OF Alabama
was so mindful of its credit that 1t sent
gold, during the war, through the block
AIDE to London to pay the interest on the
bonds there. and so only owed. when the
war closed, the interest for one year, due
January l, 1865. The remainder of the ST.
$4,000 was used in paying up some 1oat-
ing obligations OF the State and meeting
the expenses OF the State government. 1t
happened that when Patton went out of
office in July, 1868. the entire State debt
was $4725,OO0. When Lewis went out of
office in 1874 this debt had increased to
$50 OBJ, 900. A large part Of 1t was the
obligation which the State had incurred
by endorsing the railroad bonds.

pointed for the purpose of 'ascertaining.
