THE PRESIDENTS OPINION

The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin
says:
The present CHIEF Magistrate Of the
Republic once said in denouncing the
success which Is attained in either
business or politics by chicanery and
venality that our standard of public
land private conduct will never be
raised to the proper level until we
make the scOundrel who succeeds feel
the weight of a hostile public opinion
even more strongly than the scoundrel
who fails" IL is a good principle for
the District Attorney at st. Louis TO
work on in his crusade against the tre-
|mendous conspiracy OF corruption
which he is unearthing.
Speaking of district attorneys re-
minds us that the President relieved
one OF his duties down in Alabama
some time since, because he thought
more Of factional politics than he did
of the duties of his Office. and there
are. at least their may be. others.

Mxsterlons Club in Town

There is a mysterious club of young
women and young men in Wilmington
that has been in existence for about
four years and which to the uninitiated
has been the subject of much conjecture
and speculation. The clubs name is
only known to the female members and
consists of three initials. The club
meets once a week and to be qualified
a candidate must be a football crank
The weekly meetings are held in mem
bers' homes, but the annual meeting is
either a banquet or a theatre party, al
the expense of the masculine members
Three Of the feminine members are
expert basketball players. On Wednes-
day evening the club enjoyed an even

Sonsa a Losing Venture

To the Wayfarer a regular patron Of
Atlantic City said that the engagement
.of sousa to play at the shore this sum
mer was a financial failure, so far as
the persons who employed him were
concerned.
Sousa's band was engaged to give two
concerts a day for sixty days, and to
receive 81 900 per day. The admission
to hear him was SOC. 75c, and 81.
On some days there were hardly 100
persons who paid to hear him. The
reason is that many of the patrons Of
the shore live near Philadelphia and
have heard Sousa at Willow Grove, free
Of charge While the auditorium in
which Sousa played in Atlantic City
contained but few people, the piers
where but ten cents admission was
charged, were crowded.
One day there were $4,000 people on
the steel pier.

RAILROAD Man's Oueer Diversion

There is a certain employe Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company at
the French street station who has a
mania for riding on the railroad. He
boards the rear platform Of the last car
of every train that passes north, and
rides to the end of the platform of the
station. If his duties do not call his
immediate attention. he will remain
there until the next train comes in,
and then he will ride to the other end
o. the station. He seems to take as
much delight in doing this as any
schoolboy stealing a ride at the risk OF
being arrested.
The other employees have noticed
these actions. and frequently hav'

celibacY Eayors Crime

From the Chicago Record-Herald.
It requires no statistics to support
the theory that crime in any commun-
ity &creases with celibacy. The most
elemental knowledge Of sociology and
OF human nature suffces to impress one
vith this fact The mere assumption
of marital obligations is in itself a
deterrent against crime, for the man
who is capable Of an emotion that will
lead him TO matrimony is not apt to
relapse from the finer instincts of his
nature long enough to commit a crime
When the children arrive and a home
lis established. the tenderest relations
and obligations are developed and cher
ished. The family ties become stronger
and deeper. the responsibilities OF lifl
assume a more serious aspect and the
manifest impulses are nurtured anC
strengthened. It is mere sociological
truism. therefore. to say that the es
tablishment of the family relation is (
deterrent against crime.

Julesb.re Municipal Election

JulesOuf9 Municipal Election
The municipal election held 10
Julesburg last Tuesday resulted
in the defeat of the larger part of
the regular Citizens ticket. But
one ticket-the Citizens-had been
placed in nomination and because
of this there was but little inter
est manifested in the election,
large majority of the voters re-
naming away from the polls.
However, a small number of vot-
ers, who evidently could not en-
dorse the regular ticket as a whole,
quietly laid their plans to defeat
it. A list of candidates was pre-
pared, and arrangements were
carefully made to write the
names Of these candidates upon
the regular ballots. So secretly
was the work done that not until
after the votes had been counted
did the regular nominees and
their friends realize that they had
been April fooled. The result
was the defeat Of the entire Citi-
zens ticket with the exception of
treasurer and attorney. No op-
position had been made to the
regular candidates for these Offices
and B. A. Vaughan and w. H.
Pound were elected to these plac-
es respectively.
The following is list of the
other officers elected: Mayor, J.
E. Lucas; trustees, j. H. Law,
j. w. Jones, G. Lavelle. Mr..
Lucas was elected by vote of 81
to IA, the vote received by R. s.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
ilized world. Your mothers and your
grandmothers never thought OF using
anything else for indigestion or bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard Of appendicitis, nervous
prostratiOn or heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation Of un-
digested food, regulate the action of
the liver, stimulate the nervous and
orgln action of the system, and that is
all they took when feeling dull and
bad with headaches and other aches
