It is probably best for all parties in
terested that the st. Louis exposition
should be postponed for year. The
postponement will give prospective ex-
hibitors time in which TO arrange bet
ter exhibits, and afford the people time
TO catch breath between expositions
Charleston's great show, too. should
profit by the postponement at St. Louis.
There are doubtless many persons who
were Saving off" for St. Louis next
year who will now go to Charleston.
where they will see an exposition well
worth the investment in time and ex-
penses.

The cow cure" is the newest thing
in the line of persuasion and pacifica-
ton, and seems to have its certain
points of advantage over the water
cure as practiced in the Philippine ISL
ands. The cow cure" is the invention
of a resourceful woman of the name
of Foley. living at English, Ind. Mr..
Foley was in the habit of getting drunk
and abusing his wife. One evening he
came home intoxicated, quarrelsome
and sleepy. After making life a bur-
den for a short time, Foley dropped
of into drunken sleep. Then came
the opportunity of his inventive spouse.
Tying his hands firmly she carried
him into the yard and fastened him
to a stake. Then, covering him face,
hands and clothing with salt, she left
him where the cows could get at him,
and went into the house and went to
bed. The next morning Foley was a
sight to behold. The COWS had given
him such a licking during the night as
he will never forget. His clothes were
licked into shreds and his face and
hands were raw in places, from the
contact of the tongues of the salt
seeking animals. Mr.. Foley sought a
divorce. but the Foley Cow cure" had
already become locally famous.

The Charleston Post wants informa-
ton respecting the word "catacor-
nered," which, by the way, it hyphen-
ates "cat-a-cornered." Our own
opinion" says the Post, sis that the
expression has reference to the atti-
tude a cat takes when it is 'a-cor-
nered'." The late Mr. Webster, in his
excellent dictionary, says that "cata-"
is the Latin and English form of a
Greek proposition used as prefix to
signify against" contrary" or "op-
posed to-" among other things. APP
plying this definition to "catacor-
nered," which by strange oversight
Mr.. Webster left out of his diction-
airy, it will be seen that the Post is
not far from right when it assumes
the meaning of the word to have ref
erence to the attitude of the cat when
she is "a-cornered." The cat is usually
asleep or doing and facing no speci-
fed direction but generally in the di-
rection of the opposite or diagonal
corner.

Few men at the age of sixty-two
would care to emulate the feat of MIR.
John Alcock in walking backward from
Macclestield to Buxton-a distance of
twelve miles-under three and a quar-
ter hours, says the New York Post But
the feat, remarkab BILE as it is, does not
approach that of Old Macleod. a Chel-
sea pensioner, who at the age of 102
years undertook, on Oct. s, 1890 TO
walk from Hyde Park Corner to the
fifth milestone on the Turnhamrgreen
road and back in two and a half hours
Heavy bets depended on the result, and
when the old man leaped over several
heaps of mud on his return journey to
show his sprightliness objection was
raised on the ground that jumping was
not walking. This point being insisted
upon, the old man turned back. walked
where he had jumped and completed
his task III two hours and twenty-three
minutes. Another remarkable per-
Torrance on the road was that of John
Cooke, whose death was announced in
the Gentleman's Magazine for July,
1919. He was more generally known
as Jack the Greyhound" on account OF
his fieetncss in running, and in the old
coaching days ran for long distances
by the side of coaches, throwing SOM
ersa ults every few strides. on one oc-
casion he resolved to attempt the Jour-
ney from London to Birmingham, ac-
companying the mail coach for the
whole distance. He actually performed
this exploit, keeping pace with the
coach by taking an alternate number
OF steps and solnersaults But this
combined speed and agility did hot
save him from the workhouse, in which
Institution he died.-London Chronicle.

TWENTY-0NE DEAD.
Casualty List Of Ibrox Park
Disaster Is Growing.
About $50 Injured, Some Of Whom
Will Not Survive.
Heartrending Scenes About Hospitals
Among Anxious Friends.

Glasgow, April 6.-The casualty lists
of the Ibrox park disaster when a num-
Der of persons were killed or injured
by the collapsing of a spectators stand
during the international football match,
yesterday afternoon, between England
and Scotland, have been completed, to-
day. They eclipse all the reports and
estimates of the casualties which were
current, last night.
The disaster has resulted in the
death of 81 persons and the injury of
$50. Nearly 200 of the latter were so
seriously hurt that they were taken to
infirmaries for operations and treat
ment, where $50 of them still remain.
A large proportion of the injured had
limbs broken, their bodies crushed and
mangled and their heads and faces
EaShed. Several more deaths will I'M
doubteuly result from the most critical
cases of fractured skulls.
Today, the infirmareS are beSeiged
by the friends and relatives Of the
victims of the disaster and heartrend
ing scenes were witnessed when the
names of those who died, today, were
posted outside the building.
The action of the authorities at 1brOX
park in averting a more general panic
by permitting the game to proceed,
while they encouraged the impression
of the crowd within the enclosure that
the accident was not so direful, is now
generally commended.
The incongruity of the yells Of APP
plause mingling with the groans of the
struggling sufferers will never be for
gotten by those who witnessed the
scene at the rear of the terrace.

THE RHODES REQUESTS
Made a Deep impression on Emperor
William of Germany.

Berlin. April 6.-'This bequest shows
the wide reach of Cecil Rhodes mind,
and his vision of the future said EN-
peror William to DR.. Won Lucanus, the
chief Of His Majcsty's civil cabinet,
who alluded to the will Of Mr.. Rhodes
during an audience with the Emperor,
yesterday morning.
1t was then pointed out to His Ma
jesty that Mr.. Rhodes. while leaving
direction as to the selection of the ben
eficiarieS of the Rhodes scholarships in
other countries, the selection of the
bcneficiaries of the 10 scholarships set
aside for Germans had been left to the
discretion of Emperor William.
The requests of Mr.. Rhodes are re-
garded at court as constituting an en-
during impulse to good feeling between
Germany, Great Britain and the Unit
ed States and the colonies of these
countries. and as giving more sub
stance to the vague grouping of the
TeutOnic powers.
The earth belongs to the vital, liv-
ing peoples, ana these should act as
one when inefficient powers check adj
vancement." is another utterance at
tributcd to the German Emperor when
His Majesty was speaking of Prince
IIcnry's trip and the need of a better
understanding with the United States.
The inclusion of Germany in Mr..
Rhodes aims, set forth in his will,
has brought out some considerate ex-
pressions concerning his imperial pur
poses from even the Anglophobe jour
mails, although most of the commenta-
tors on his purposes hold him respon-
siblc for the Boer war.
Why have not l such n minister?
Emperor William is said to have ex-
claimed after an interview with Cecil
Rhodes in $50.
This remark is now widely repro
duced. and it enables the opposition
paragraphists to revile the present
ministry.
