sheep Are Fond of Glover.

The clover crop seems to be of such
supreme value for sheep that it might
be said to be necessary adjunct of
the successful sheep farm. 1t is many
sided in value, being excellent for
growing lambs, splendid for nourish-
ing ewes and high in rank for fatten-
ing in the feed lots. At some stage of
the sleeps life clover feeding seems
absolutely necessary to attain the best
results. In addition to being very
wholesome food, it is remarkable that
sheep should be so ravenous for every
part of it, stem, leaf and blossom

WAS GIVEN HIS PAPERS
Janioor Magraw Bureau of Informa
 tion for Oourt House

ton for Court House.
 Janitor Magraw of the court house is the encyclopedia of that institution. Whenver anyone wants to nnd oui about anything that occurred far DacR in the dim and dusty past, inquiry IS made Of Janttor MagraW. He does not have to turn somersaults to shake up hia memory or his brains to get at the point of information he is after. 1t is always on the tip of his fluent tongue.
 Saturday the janitor came in very handy and to his apparently mex haustible fund of information one man at least owes his citizenship. The mans witness said he knew the cand- date for citizenship since Corb ett licked Sullivan. He did not know when that memorable event took place, had not the slightest idea regarding 1t, but that was the date. Of that he was positive. He did not know the man before that time and he became acquainted with him through making a wager that John L. would win. Not one of the court officials had the slight est idea when the battle in question occurred. only that 1t was more than five years ago. But this was not suf- 6cient.
 Just then Janitor Magraw entered the room very quietly and took seat. Sheriff Gillette saw him and imm edi- ateAy it occurred to him to draw upon the infinite sources of information pos. sessed by the janitor Scarcely had the question passed the sheriff's lips before the janitor replied that the even ing when Corbett won the pugilistic championship from the renowned John l.. Sullivan was in September, 1892. Ut was a splendid evening, too,' he said. In order to prove himself cor rect the janitor descended to his office in the basement of the building, pro- dt1ced an almanac and found himself corroborated.
 That settled it and the applicant was given his papers.

TO THE WHITE HOUSE
President and Family Quit Their
 Summer Home.

OYSTER BAY, X. F., Sept 2S.- President Roosevelt passed the last day of his summer vacation quietly at Sagamore Hill. He and Mrs. Roose- welt, accompanied by two of their chill dren, attended the morning services at Christ Episcopal church. The presi- dent and Mrs. Roosevelt and their chil- dren now at home-Ethel Archie and Quentin Secretary and Mrs. Loeb and the members of the executive staff left this morning at S:30 o'clock for Washington, expecting to arrive there at 4:10 p. I1
 A meeting of the cabinet will be held tomorrow at II o'clock, but nothing of special importance is likely to be de- veloped at the meeting. Indeed some members of the cabinet will not be in attendance. Tn tf afternoon the presi- dent will have as guest at luncheon John Mitchell president of the United Mine Workers of America Several months ago the president invited MT. Mitchell to take luncheon or dine with him when he next came to Washing ton. The mine workers president is in Washington now and will be there un- til Tuesday evening.
 1t Is announced that the arrange ment for the luncheon was made prior to the latest developments in the case of W. H. Miller, the foreman book binder in the government printing of flee, and that no special significance is to be attached to the fact that the president and Mir. Mitchell meet at this time. It is quite probable that the Miller case, among other matters. will be discussed, but the meeting at lunch con will not take the form of confer ence on that subject
 In view of statements recently pub lished that the president on his return to Washington would hold confer ence on the Miller case with pron1i- nent officials representing organized labor 1t is announced that the presi- dent has no intention of conferring with anybody regarding that case. His position, it is pointed out, was de fined clearly in his published letters to Secretary Cortelyou. The principle enunciated in those letters was framed in accordance with the statutes of the United States. and on it the president expects to stand.

Cleo de Merode Invents a Dance.
arts Correspondence Of London Telegraph.

Paris Correspondence If London Telegraph
Mile Cleo de Merode, professional beauty
and ballerna, formerly of the Paris Opera
troupe, has invented a new dance. We are
not yet to know what it will be. All Mile
de Merode will say is that 1t will not be like
the cakewalk. 1t is refreshing to find
somebody in Paris who is not in love with
the cakewalk. Mile. Cleo hates it, and
rightly thinks it grotesque, coarse and silly.
In fact, her idea in inventing a new dance
has, to great extent, been to KILL if posi-
BILE, the cakewalk craze, which has lasted
for year and still RACES. Mile. de Merode
is also tired of the oldtime ballet step
and attitudes which she practiced for many
seasons on the Opera stage. In her new
dance. accordingly, she will reject the tip
toe pirouettes of Italian ballerine. as well
as the wild knee-to-chin lurching and the
back filings of negro walkers. She will
aim, in her own words, at ''grace and
righteousness" No more will she reveal
of her dance. 1t is to be seen on one OF
the many small stages of Paris. Report
says that half dozen well-known COM
posers have already requested the privilege
of writing music for Mile. de Merode.
