Bee is Busy With Hay.
Special to The Globe.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July 8.-Sec-
retary Hays friends ridicule the idea
that he will resign from the cabinet.
They admit that he doubtless was
piqued by the action of the president
regarding the B'nai Birth petition, but
they say he has already forgotten it.
What is regarded as the most i'm
portant reason for Mr.. Hay remaining
in the cabinet is the fact that his
friends are already urging him for the
presidency in 1908. 1t is known that
Mr.. Hay has always been anxious to
be doomed for that honor. Repub-
licans here declare that no better man
can be found in their ranks to be
candidate for the presidency in 1908
1t may be stated that Mr.. Hay himself
will encourage all efforts to boom him
for the presidency. His friends say
that he never for one moment thought
of resigning, as such action would ruin
all his chances of being a presidential
candidate.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, July Sit
was stated today that the real pur-
pose of Secretary Hays visit to Oys-.
ter Bay yesterday was not so much to
discuss Russian affairs with the pres
ident as to urge Senator Hanna to
either consent to accept the second
place on the Republican national
ticket next year or promise to con-
tinue as chairman of the national COM
mittee.
Either arrangement would suit Mr..
Roosevelt, but it is said he would rath-
er have Hanna on the ticket with him
as a guarantee of the support of finan-
cial interests. There are few men
whose advice or request on either
subject would go farther with Mr..
Hanna than that of Mr.. Hay. Mr..
Hanna has always considered that Nc
Kinleys mantle fell on Mr.. Hay and
Mr.. Hay has fully as high a regard for
Mr.. Hanna.
The president, it is said, instructed
Mr.. Hay to try and induce Senator
Hanna to accept a second place on the
ticket. This would strengthen matters

Forty persons are under the doctors
care from eating ice cream furnished
by a local dealer Drs. Ryan and
Rockwell, who have the cases in

that the ice cream caused all the ILL

to other causes, but many can be
traced to the cream. None will die.

RICHMOND, KY, July S.-Before a
jury today Gen. Cassius M Clay, the
Sage of WHITEHALL" was adjudged of
unsound mind, and a committee will
be appointed to take charge of and
control his property. The general was
not present, and aff1davits were filed
by two local physicians, who declared
it was unsafe for him to be brought
to court.
Gen. Clay took no interest in the
proceedings, which were instituted by
his children, and says he will never
leave Whitehall alive. No attempt will
be made to commit him to an asylum
When it was told to Gen. Clay this
afternoon that he had been adjudged
a lunatic, the old warriors eye flashed
fire, and, arising from his bed, he
clutched his trusty bowie knife and
declared he would kill the first man to
enter the room.
Dora Brock, who married Clay when
he was almost ninety and she was six

The Way People SIT.

1t is one thing to have a chair and
another to know how to sit on 1t. The
ideal of graceful sitting posture has
varied In the different ages of the
world. The Egyptians sat bolt upright,
the knees and feet closely pressed to-
gether. 1t was the ceremonial attitude.
The Greeks and Romans, when their
seats had no backs and they were at
liberty to forget their dignity sat
stopping, with one or both elbows sup
ported by the arms. The Chinese ideal
was the knees and feet wide apart.
They have maintained that attitude in
sitting for 1900 years. The Saxons and
early Norman kings are represented in
old manuscripts and on coins in the
same position. Down to date com
paratively recent kings and queens re-
celved sitting stiftiy on their thrones,
any marked change of posture being
thought to derogate from the royal dig
nifty. They now receive standing.

Attention has been called to the sur
vival of folklore In rural parts of Eng
land by evidence given in a stabbing
case tried at the Essex assizes To
quicken the healing Of the wounds, the
knife with which they were inflicted
was smeared with grease and laid on
the bed of the patient. The purpose
served by the application of grease or
oil to the knife or to any steel instru-
ment that has inflicted wounds is to
prevent it from rusting. for if the steel
is allowed to become rusty the wound
is supposed to be affected and tester
ing and modification follow the prog
ress of the rust Another quaint be-
lief is that the application of an oiled
knife is certain and quick remedy

The solar system is we'll illustrated

sun be represented by globe two feet
In diameter. A grain of mustard seed at
the circumference of a circle 164 feet
in diameter will adequately represent
the size and distance of Mercury. The
earth will be represented by pea on
the circumference of circle 284 feet
across, and Venus by another pea on
the outside of a 430 foot circle. Mars
will be adequately represented by a
pinhead at 654 feet, and the asteroids
by grains of sand 1000 to 1,200 feet
away. An orange at the distance Of
half mile will stand for JSpiter, a
very small apple at four-ffths of a
mile will stand for Saturn and cher
ry on the circumference of circle IA
miles across will represent Uranus.
