Governor Beckham is undoubtedly
eligible to reelection. and will be a
candidate for the gubernational nomi-
nation. He is much stronger than ever
before. His letter to Governor Durbin,
OF Indiana, concerning w. S. Taylor's
extraditiOn was exceptionally good; full
of logic and hard sense. His message to
the Legislature now in session was the
soundest and best in every respect as a
state paper ever promulgated by any
Governor Of Kentucky. Whenever and
wherever he goes Beckham makes
cfrienda, who always remain loyal to

nominated and elected Governor again

/ONE Of the latest inventions for mas
sage Is a rubber hand. We have long
been in the coloquial habit of consider
aIng the term rubber neck as a re-
Eproach. The rubber hand, however, is
expected to be in reality a glad hand,
s9Or its use is to prevent bald
ERess. The gentle friction of the scalp
rthat it produces is claimed to be more
edirectly beneficial in effect than massage
Sby the fingers. This would seem to
kill the theory of the transmission Of
electric or magnetic force, for rubber
as q nOn-conductOr. However, rubber
hands, minus thumb, are in the mar
eket and the baldheaded row will soon
be ancient history in a different sense

tar proper is one large slab of black
Irish marble from Connamara. 1t is
striking piece of work.
On the platform of the altar rest
four columns of onyx, which are sup
ported by two ornamentations of
green small Irish marble. Between
the OTnamentatiOns, over the altar,
is a Das relief of pure yellow Carrara
marble, representing the Virgin hold
ing the infant Jesus i'll her arms.
Both figures are Of nearly life size.
Beneath the mother and child is the
figure of a cherub.
Underneath the altar are two of the
catacombs destined to receive the
bodies of the Mackay family. Large
bronze d"ors guard the entrance TO
these vaults. On the other side Of the
main chamber are arranged ten more
tombs. Each one will be hermeticalIy
sealed as soon as an occupant is placed
n it.
On each side Of the tomb is a large
solid pillar arching overhead into
fretwork- The sides are composed oI
many varieties of marble. The floor
is Of italian mosaic. and a large ar

TOLD ABOUT MACKAY
British Death Duty May Be Imposed
OF His Estate.
maekay MaUsOIeum at Greenwood
Cemetery, Brooklyn, Is a Prince
~ TOmb-MIIIIOnaire Was
Good Fighter.

Estimates published in London put
the late John W. Mackay's fortune at
10000, 900 to $7O,OOO,OOO, and in legal
circles il is considered a nice point
whether the British government is not
entitled TO claim death duty of five
per cent. on what Mrs. Mackay inner
its under her husbands Will, as, though
not naturaliZed, she is dOmiciled IN
England. Then a death duty will have
to be paid on all the testator's invest
ments in English securities, so the
chancellor of the exchequer calculates
making a handsome haul out Of his
estate, as Mackay's English invest
ments are said to be nearly $10,OOO,-
600.
His friends declare that four years
ago, fOreseeing a prospect OF his es-
tate being mulcted by the English
treasury, owing to his wife being domi-
ciled there, he assigned to her the
greater part of the fortune he intend
ed to bequeath to her, including his
English investments, and that the re-
mainder Of his fortune goes To his
son.
The Mackay mausoleum at Green
wood, Brooklyn, where the body Of
John w Mackay will be laid at rest,
is one of the most magnificent tombs
in the world. 1t cost 100000.
The mausoleum j. situated on a pro-
mOntory near the Ninth avenue en-
trance to the cemetery, facing the
east. 1t is built OF HalloweI granite,
and is in the form of a Maltese cross,
surmounted by Grecian cross.
On each corner of the tomb is a
large heroic group cast in bronze.
The statues symbolic different at
tributes of sorrow and faith, death
and life. With the exception of the
carving on the cross surmOunting the
structure and the frieZe around the
pillars, the exterior is severely plain.
The entrances are guarded by four
massive bronze doors. Fronting the

Baltimore Fisherman Spends His
Life in Tight Quarters.

AnYthinE-Hint to PrOspee-
tive Hermits.

Not many of even the meek and
lowIy spirited citizens of Baltimore
would take kindly TO the thought of
living nine months of the year in a
piano box six feet long by TWO and one
half feet wide and five teet high, says
the Baltimore sun.
And yet that is what james Thomas
Bailey, a weather-beaten and white
haired fisherman, 5S years old, has
been doing for the past four years. He
seems 10 thrive on it, too.
The box stands at the end of row
of others, all of which, with the eX-
ception of Bailey's, contain fishing
tackle, on the shore of Spring Gardens,
At the foot of HaROver street.
About ten years ago Bailey became a
fisherman at the spot where he now
lives. He says that the idea of seek
ing the piano box was first suggested
TO him when the snow of the famous
blizzard Of February, 1898, sifted
through the cracks of a shanty he was
then occupying and opened lis sides TO

he said, in reply 10 a question as TO
whether it really was true that he lived
in a box, there il is" And, lifting
