When Philip II. debated the question

QUEER INSURANCE CASES.

A good story is told of betting man
who was in the habit Of regularly pur-
chasing a railway insurance ticket
whenever he went on his travels. Once
he failed to. do so, and his train was
in imminent danger. His disgust knew
no bounds. ~Iere have been betting
on this coming off all my life" he said,

There is one sadly dramatic history
associated with an insurance ticket. A
gentleman purchased one prior to
starting on journey, and. as is fire.

from the departure station. The ticket
was delivered simultaneously with an
intimation from the railway company
announcing that he had lost his life in
railway accident.

on the body of one of the victims. The
ticket had been reduced to absolute

The yiagraph IS newly-lnvented ma
chine for accurately determining the
inequalities of road surface. 1t re-
sembles a sledge, and in principle is y
straight edge applied continually to the
road on which it may be drawn The
machine carries roll of paper which
receives the impression of two pencils.
One of these is fixed and marks per-
fectly straight line, while the other
rises and falls according to the yari-
atoms of the surface. These variations
are transmitted by a serrated wheel
which travels on the road surface and
is attached to one end of lever which is
pivoted in the center. At the opposite
end of the lever is the second pencil,
and as the wheel rises and falls with
the undulations of the road surface the
pencil rises and falls correspondingly
thus making an infallible record of the
surface. The viagraph has been ex-
tensively used in England, where its
records have been frequently used by
bicyelists for the purpose of showing
the authorities how much some roads
are in need of repair. Such a record is
the more valuable as q piece of testi-
mony from the fact that the actual de-
gree of unevenness of a given road can
be indicated where desired by numer-
ieal indexsin feet, which can be at
tached TO the machine.-St. Louis Re-

been felt for some time that Roosevelt
will be the nominee of the next Re

convention will contain 967 delegates.
States with 496 votes have already de-
clared in resolutions in state conven-

states which have not given Roosevelt
a specific endorsement for the presi-
dency are California, Michigan, Maine,

when he wrote. An honest man is the

themselves whether they are genuinely
honest in the payment of their taxes

day. The poor man with only a home
or the man whose holdings are in real
estate, pays full tribute 1t is the rich
man, with bonds mortgages and Sc

Death in the Sport.

Paced bicycle racing has reached a
point where the racers life is at haz
ard when he sprints for glory and
cash. This form of racing takes place
on the small board tracks steeply
banked behind heavy and powerful
pacing machines. Harry Elkes of
Glens Falls. n. Y. the American mid
dle-distance champion and the great
est all-around rider in the world, was
killed in a race at Charles River park
Cambridge, Mass. last Saturday
Elkes led the other competitors. and
at ; miles, was far under the worlds
record, his time being 1910 80. In
the 10th mile his chain slipped or
broke and he fell directly in the path
of the 1i-horse power motor steered
liam Stinson was riding at a 1.13 clip.
Machines and riders went down in a
confused mass. Elkess head was
crushed and both arms broken. He
died in an ambulance while being TAX
en- to a hospital, never having regained
consciousness. Gateley and Stinson
were seriously injured. but will re-
cover. Within two years two other
famous riders have been killed in SINH
lar accidents-McEache the Cana
dian champion, and Nelson one of the
greatest pace followers; and other
riders of lesser note have met death.
Elkes had won races at all distances
from short sprints to siX-day struggles.
In practice last week he was timed
l.10 l-5 for a mile The circumstances
Of his death are peculiarly sad as
he planned to end his racing career
July 4 and to be married shortly after
that date.

suffering public in Windham county
will heartily approve the action taken,
as indicated in the brief statement
above.
Everybody who has had anything to
do with the railroad knows of the ram
shackle condition of the road bed. of
the poor and inadequate equipment of
the rolling stock, and of the disgrace
full and outrageous service which has
been maintained for a long time for
both freight and passenger traffic,
more especially in the past two or
three years. Passengers have en-
dured inconvenience. discomfort and
positive suffering. Business has been
curtailed and cut off simply because
orders for freight shipment could not
be filled with any certainty.
The situation has been reviewed
and condemned in various ways be-
Iole LHISs DuI IHe GTdIu trunk rail-
road people, who are now the sponsors
for the road. through the Central Yer
mont and New London roads, have
simply adopted a do-nothing policy.
The road was built at a cost of $780,
600 and was opened in 1880. A clean
100000 in cold cash or its equivalent
was raised by people and towns Of
Windham county to secure the con-
struction Of the road. The people
and towns have a right to know and
demand that a proper accounting Of
the expenses and receipts of the road
be made, and they have a right to
have the business of the road properly
handled.
The question of running the road
is one of momentous importance to
/ Brattleboro and the entire West River
valley. That the intolerable condi-
| tions will be righted as a result of the
action now taken there is little doubt.

THOUSANDS ARE HOMELESS.
Topeka, Kansas City and Other Cities
in the West Swept by Freshets-
Many Lives Lost.

Property to the value of many mill
ions has been destroyed and more than
60 people are known to have been
drowned by the floods which have in
undated a large part of Topeka. Kan
sas City, Des Moines and other cities
and towns in Kansas, Missouri and
Iowa during the past week. The Kan
sas river has been several feet above
the highest mark ever known before,
and large part of Topeka and North
Topeka have been under water II is
estimated that upwards of $4,000 peo-
pie have been driven from their homes
in the three states. Probably 200
dwelling houses have been destroyed
in Topeka alone, and several big
blocks have collapsed. All railroad
traffic has been suspended. The dam
age to crops has been immense,
amounting in the aggregate probably
to $40,OO0,000.
The flooded district in Kansas City
covered an area of IL square miles,
and the greatest damage was to the
big packing plants in Armourdale and
Argentine, and to the large argicultu-
raj implements factories. The condi-
tions have been much worse in To
peka and Kansas City than in other
places, but in Des Moines 5000 people
have been refugees, and several lives
were lost. The floods are now abat-
ing, but the Mississippi river at ST.
Louis has felt the effect of the high
water from the tributaries, and is now
at food crest.
