A TRUST SONG

=
Better a srliIs than d sigh dear
Better kiss than = frowr.
Better q look toward the sky. isar.
Than always bs looking down
Better IN time of trouble,
A song OF hope and cheer,
Than a heart that brO9ds Ger sorrow
And makes the sorrow dear
The joys We md to-day. dear
PERHAPS seem poor and small,
But better a little sun. dear,
Than to have no sun ST all
Then make the most Of the present.
And its little JOYS. I say;
For what is here we have. dear.
But tomorrow is far away
So look I'm my face and smile dear
And sing a cheerful song;
II never Is worth our while, dear.

Informed the secretary of state that the
invitation of the president to the second
peace conference had been scoiilnlunicat-
ed to the imperial government by the
United States minister in Japan. The
charge was instructed to say that the
japanese government cordially sympa-

inspired the invitation and that exper-
ience has shown that there is urgent
need for more exact definition and uni
form practice of international law than
now exists. The japanese government,
he said, does not ind in the fact that
they are engaged in war any sufficient
reason why they should not, under the
present circumstances, take part in the
proposed conference, provided that the
conference to be assembled does not
take OF assume to take any action rela-

RECORD OF CRESCEUS
. HAS BEEN THROWN OUT

Chicago, Dec. o.-The board of the
American Trotting Association today
freed Mr.. Ketcham from the charge oi
tcrookedness in establishing the record
| of Cresceus at Wichita, Kas. The
board found the officials OF the South
| ern Kansas Fair Association, on whose
tracks the race was run guilAy of con-
nivance to establish false record, ex-
pelling from the trotting ASSOCIATION,
President H., Irwin and all the other
official connected with the Wichita
track at that time 4 -
The persons expelled by the board
besides Mr.. Irwin were: S. B. Ami
dom, Judge; A. C. Jordan, Fred
Stearnes and H. r. Eames, all OF
whom were found by the board to have
participated in the announcement and
establishment of the fraudulent re-
cord of the horse Cresceusl The ex-
pulsion OF these officials also means
that the worlds record for trotting
stations Of :5oM claimed to have been
made by Cresceus is not allowed by
| the board. The board added:
All controversy over the regularity
| of the performance and the correct
ness of the time claimed is forever
set at rest by Mr.. Ketcham's author
lied statement through his attorney
today made before the board in which
he unequivocally states that he is sat-
listed from the evidence before the
board that the horse Cresceus did not
at Wichita make the mile in
lI:5oA and that he is not entitled to
credit for the performance OF any re-
cord arising therefrom That the an
nounceDaent Of such time then and
there made was fraudulently done and
was false. That Cresceus is not en-
titled to the record and Mr.. Ketcham
does not want it under the existing
Icircun1stances.'

THE PORTE YIELDED
TO THE AUSTRIANS

- Constantinople, Dec 9.-The porte has
yielded to the Austrian demands re-
garding detention of Austrian mails and
the incident may be regarded as closed.
Threatened complications have, there
fore been averted. The Austrian ulti-
n1atum demanded the dismissal of the
director of customs, the secretary gen.
eral of the villayet and the chief of
police of Seutari within three days, fail
ing which Austria would make naval
demonstration at Salonica, and follow
ing the example of France on the oc-
casion< of the occupation of the Island
of Mitylene. would demand a settlement
of all other pending questions, includ-
ing official recognition of the schools
under Austrian protection. The ener-
getic attitude of Austria in ordering
squadron of warships to be made
ready to sail induced the desired action
ON the part of the porte, with the result
that the: difficulty was tided over.

HABEAS CORPUS WRIT !.

st. Louis, Mo-, Dec. o.-The opinion
OF Judge Sanborn Of the United States
circuit court denying the application for
a writ of habeas corpus, made by Mich
ael Dowd, Of Denver; who was inlpris-
oned by the supreme court Of Colorado
on charge Of contempt growing out
Of the recent election has been made
public. The writ was denied on the
ground that the action of the supreme
court Of Colorado is renewable on a
writ of error from the supreme court
of the United States and that precedent
established the latter tribunal as the
reviewing court rather than federal
court Judge. "a
The opinion states that the federal
court has jurisdiction but as the appli-
cant can also obtain relief through the
supreme court of the U. S. and final
ruling can be obtained from that court,
the application Of the writ is denied.
