with Alfred King, the genial and

ting in front of the store Thursday
evening with John Stanley when a

inquired for Mr.. Wells, as he wished
to make payment on some Canada
land Mr.. King started up to Mr..
Wells house with the man, and when
on the way, remarked to the man that
he must have good deal of money
with him. At this the mans suspi-
cions we're aroused, and he was quick
to say that he had only twenty-five
cents with him, but the next moment
he was flying towards town. He
didn't stop till he reached the shelter
of Anton Watzke's home, and there
told the story of his hold-up, After
this when he comes to the city, he
will learn to put no confidence in
accommodating strangers who volun-
teer to accompany him after dark.

The trotters are still busy with the rec
ords 1t was thought by many people. when
I'm the middle of the season Lou Dillon
trotted in two minutes fiat. that Cresceus,
the former king. would never regain su-
premacy. Especially was this impression
widespread in view of the work of Major
Del Mar. few weeks after Lou Dillon's
wonderful performance. He first came
within fraction of a second of the mares
time, and then eaualed 1t. although there
was some dissatisfaction over the record In
view of the size of the wind shield used to
aid him 1t was not generally known that
the owner of Cresceus was at all hopeful of
regaining his horses laurels. when an
nouncement came the other day that he had
trotted the mile in 59A. This not only
establishes a new worlds record for trot-
tiers and starts the race against time down
the second minute. but 1t is especially nota-
BILE in view of the fact that Cresceus was
not aided by a wind shield and his PAGER
one instead of two-ran alongside OF him
and not in front. Thus there can be no dis
putting the cleanness of his performance,
and the abandonment of the artificial device
in his case will tend to discredit it generally
on the trotting track. The best that can
be said of it is that 1t is as legitimate as the
bicycle sulky. That comparison however,
is far fetched. The sulky is a necessary
part of the trotter's equipment. HA csnnQt

An English View of Our Cranks.

From the London Spectator.
Another mailman, q workman from Min
neapoliS named Peter Elliott, has been ar
rested by the detective service which now
protects President Roosevelt and sent to
an asylum AS a dangerous lunatic. He
tined to shoot a policeman in the vestibule
of the White House. These cases, which
occur too frequently, suggest that the
President is in even more danger than most
European monarchs. That is probably ali
eXaggcration, the kings concealing as many
of the threats and attempts directed
against them as they can; but the Presi-
dents danger must be great. America is
full of ''cranks," and they as apt as
European semi-maniacs are to let their
thoughts faSten on the President of the
republic as the ultimate source of their
grievances, whether imaginary or real The
nest remarkable point in the business is
the rapid increase in these attempts both
in America and Europe. Is that due to an
actual increase in homicidal insanity or an
effect of the way in which modern journal
ism pours sort of electric light upon the
figures of the great, so that they are al
ways visible? There are fifty references
now even to our own king where there used
to be five.

Dowie in Defeat.

Brother Dowie is nearing bottom In New
York if indeed, he has not touched 1t. HIS
attack on the newspaper reporters reveals
at once his straits and his character as a
man. Wholesale denunciation of the press
is a sure sign of failure and hypocrisy.
He owes everything to the press. Indeed,
if the press is to be criticised in the prem
Uses at all. it must be for the space given to
the invasion and the assignment OF the pest
reportorial talent to the meetings. But that
was made necessary by the everyday de-
mands of the times. The public insists
upon full and entertaining accounts OF
movements that are novel and picturesque;
and the Dowie movement comes within such
a designation. All we have to consider
therefore, is, have the reporters given us
faithful pictures of the scenes enacted?
The answer is easily in the affirmative
They may not fully have satisfied them
selves for the most capable and expe-
rienced descriptive writer chews his lead
pencil in despair at times when whirl of
humanity performs before his eyes But If
we have had from them mainly continued
story of excitement, picked out here and
there with the humorous and the grotesque,
it has been because Brother Dowie forced
them to take him almost exclusively on his
circus side. Being neither scholar nor ora
tor but merely an eccentric man delivering
familiar message in an eccentric way, he
has laid no foundation upon which writer's
for the press have been able to rear a
structure of dignity and impressiveness.
There are newspapers and newspapers,
reporters and reporters, just as there are
pulpiteers and pulpteers, politicians and
politicians. But yellow is not the prevail
ing color in any of the walks of serious en-
deavor. For every newspaper that abuses
it's function a match may be found in the
clerical. the political, the professional
world. Enumerattng quacks and counter
feits is not pleasant business. and the num-
Der is not complimentary to mankind, but
the press has nothing to fear from the COM
parison afforded by the figures. And, as a
rule there is no surer sign of humbug
than your noisy fellow, wherever found,
who. from the pulpit or the stump, showers
down maledictions the newspapers, and
asks the public to believe that they are
channels mainly for floating lies and mis-
chief. The probability is that, whatever
his personal grievances may be, they have
''let him off mighty light

The Missouri.

Race horses and transatlantic liners are
not the only record breakers these days.
Here GENES the new battle ship Missouri,
smashing everything in the way of previous
performances by ships of her class, and set
ting the worlds mark so high that the ship
builders of this and other countries will
have difficulty in breaking the record in
their future creations. The Maine, sister
ship of the Missouri, had done so well at
1I9S knots an hour that it was thought
this government had easily scored the max
imum for long time. But the Missouri on
her trial run steamed up TO an average cf
1905, which, with tide corrections, may
reach 1922 At one time the battle ship
was going at the rate of 1915 knots an
hour, a remarkable speed considering the
weight of guns and armor such ship must
carry 1t is safe to believe that this coun-
try's naval standard, which was shown to
be so high during the summer of 1898, is
not being lowered.

The Anti-GasoIine Campaign

The District IRE marshal deserves the sup
port Of the authorities and the public in his
effort to reduce the danger of fire original
ing from gasoline. AS shown in the article
in the news columns today, all applications
for tie storage and sale of this luid are be-
ing closely scrutinized, and the enjoyment
of the privilege. when granted. is subjected
to constant supervision. II this campaign
is perSistently conducted the result must be
to lower the fire ratio, and especially to les
sen tine number of fatalities For gasoline
is the cause of the most disastrous fires
which the department IL called upon to ex-
tiuguish, and such fires are the hardest to
subdue. Gasoline is regarded even more
dangerous than gunpowder. The latter is
latent until actually reached by fame or
sparks. but gasoline spreads it's own fuse
unless most tightly closed and when ignited
by means of trails of fumes it explodes with
frfghtful effect. far worse even than the
defamation of powder. The blazing fluid is
scattered wide and ignites everything it
touches.
The rapid increase in the number of gaso-
line automobiles has added seriously to the
responsibilities OF the fire department, but
II would seem that less danger is apprehend-
edfrom this source than from the use OF
