Easy to Answer.

To whom it may concern: The fol-
lowing question was asked by the
Herald of October It'll: eff man is
worth $3.50 month to walk around
and look wise, what would he be
worth if he worked little as well?"
In answer tothis ''How-old-is-Ann"
question, l will state that Mr.. G. G.
GLASS; plan of operating an indie
penden! water Office and personally
conducting the same, will save the
city fully $3.50 a month more than he
is now saving, and his endeavoring to
bring about this higher state of eff
cheney by dispensing with the I'M
necessary services of a B per cent.
commission for collecting water bills,
along with other unnecessary ex-
penses, over which he has no control,
has caused all of this recent trouble.
Therefore the answer to the ques-
ton would be, that if Mr.. Glass was
allowed to conduct the water system
as he should be allowed to, he would
be worth $3.50 month more to the
city, in addition to a very satisfac-
tory saving which he has made dur
ing his past handicapped admins
tration, and without any additional
cost to the city. A Taxpayer.

INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
Delivered by Mrs. w. w. Ross, Pres
ident of Monday Club.

When the program committee decided
to say
That the 3rd of October should be
Presidents Day."
The Presidents remonstrance was
both loud and long
For she thought that with time she
could sing grand song
Of good work accomplished, a won
derful lay,
But the committee suggested perhaps
there'd be nothing to say
And babe her take heed of the wise
politician
Who makes all his speeches before
his election.
In thinking of what l should say to
you
Of subjects fresh and topics new,
So many ideas suggested themselves
That almost concluded twas the
work of elves.
So this talk may be short, or it may
be long
sit may turn out a sermon, it may
turn out song"
Much good work have we done in
the years that are past
But nothing, we think, that can excel
the last,
When in less than year by Juggling
and straining
We have introduced into our school
the useful art of manual training,
The glory belongs to every club
member,
But for special praise we will remem-
Der
The committee who worked, and the
president who led,
By her consummate tact and her
scheme-filIed head;
But the time has not come yet to rest
on our laurels
With wills persistent, with good strong
morals
We must capture the future, laden
down with possibilities,
Steal his burden and transform them
into probabilities.
We will all remember the good old
story
OF the father who taught by allegory
To his sons, the lesson of brotherly
love
By the sticks bound together which
no one could sever
Much less hope to break, till the cord
which bound them
Was Ioosed or broken, when any who
found them
Might break or destroy the sticks at
their will.
The moral, of course, will all of us
thrill,
the lesson is good for a family of
boys
With their hasty tempers and good
natured noise
1t is also good for the matrons prim
Who compose our club, of the mighty
tree, G. F. W. c., one limb.
If we would wish to find success
The twins, peace and harmony we
must caress.
Our club, we will find, is like large
family
Where if all wish to live well and |
amiably
Each one, with the virtue which is
such a rarity
Must hide the faults of her sister,
mean Christian charity;
We must take pride in hiding from
sight of the world
The follies of dear ones, although they |
be churIs,
Why not exercise the same discretion

NEW YORK.
Roosevelt Runs Ahead Of McklnIey's
Majority.


New York, Nov. S.-Theodore Roose-
velt's plurality in this, h,s native
State, is second only to McKinley's
2S6,000 in 1896. 1t exceeds McKin-
ley's in 1900 by about 41,500. The late
returns show that there were cast for
him in New York State about 1856, 900
votes more than for Parker Not only
was his vote heavy in the country dis
tricts, where the Republican strong.
holds are, but in Greater New York,
he ran much closer to Parker than
had been expected, even by his own
campaign managers 1t had been es-
timated that he would come down to
the Bronx with better than 100000
plurality, but the figures tonight
showed that this forecast would be
exceeded by approximately $1,000. In
the city Parker's supporters had ex.
pressed hopes that their candidate
would have from 100000 to 100000
more than Roosevelt, but in this they
were disappointed by more than 100,-
600 votes. So overwhelming was the
Republican vote that the result was
known positively early in the even
ing. The earliest counties to report
made 1t clear that the Parker vote
everywhere fell below Bryans in prac-
ttcally all the upstate districts. In
Greater New York Parker's plurality
was from 10000 to $4,000 larger than
Bryan's, but in the State, according to
the late reports, his total vote fell 49,.
600 short Of Bryan's.

KENTUCKY.
Parker's Majority VIII Be Between
10000 and $4,000,

Louisville, Nov. 8.--With one.third
Of Kentucky's 1896 precincts reported.
at IL o'clock tonight the vote indicates
a majority In the State Of from 10000
to $4,000.
The figures Of the Democratic and
Republican managers show but little
variance from this result. Kentucky
In 1900 gave Bryan S,O9S plurality.
The returns from 693 precincts show
a plurality Of 16,026 for Parker.
Only few counties in the First and
Second and the Eleventh districts. the
former being Democratic and the lat.
ter a Republican stronghold, have
been received. In the Fifth district,
composed of Louisville and Jefferson
county, the Democratic plurality Of
1896 in 1900 was cut down by fully
1000 votes. In the Third district also
the Democratic majority was reduced.
The complete returns from the
strongly Republican Eleventh district
are not expected for forty-eight hours.
but the reduction of the normal Re.
publican majority as the result OF a
factional fight over the Republican
congressional nomination will partial.
ly offset the Republican gains in the
Third and Fifth. The result OF the
fight leaves the congressional delega.
ton unchanged-ten Democrats and
one Republican.
The result was not complicated by
local issues save in the Fifth district
(Louisville), where $3,5O0,000 bond
issue was defeated.

Mr.. Vestal was looking after their
baggage when the old man suddenly
ran across to the Mobile & Ohio
yard, stopped in front of train Of
cars being switched, and before any,
thing could be done he was beneath
the cars and his life crushed out.
He had made previous attempt
some time ago to kill himself. He

Pardoned to Sec His Dying SON.

Harry Mccullough, a telegraph
operator for the Southern Railroad,
lies in a precarious condition from
typhoid fever at the home Of his
mother, Mrs. Cassie Mccullough, in
Knoxville. The boys father has
been serving time in Brushy Moup-
tain prison for the past three years.
Last week, when it was thought that
the boy was dying, Gov. Frazier was
wired to pardon the father. The
telegram briefly stated the facts and
added that unless the farner came at
once he would not see his son alive.
Mr.. McCullough's term would have
expired in December, and, besides
this, he has made an exemplary pris-
oner. The pardon came, and the
father arrived. There was a joyful
meeting. The son is barely alive,
but it is hoped by his friends that
the presence of his father, whom he
recognized at once, will aid him in
his fight for life. Mccullough was
convicted and sentenced to the pris-
on for killing a man named South
ern in the Mccullough store at
Bulls Gap, Hawkins county, in q
dispute over telephone.
