THREE THINGS
GOOD TO HAVE
GOOD FIRE, GOOD BOOKS TO READ
AND GOOD FRIENDS ABOUT
BOSTON BACHELORS IDEA.

A Boston bachelor caused to he
carved over his antique fireplace the
words: Bon feu, bons Hvres, hons
amis." Good fire, good books, good
frendsO
He must have been one Of those in
tensely literary chaps, or he would
have added good pictures" to the list
for these are the golden apples of
Hesperides."
OF the four indeed, good books and
good pictures still remain the best;
your fire dies out your friend departs,
often leaving his l. o. u; but books
and pictures on shelf and wall still stay
TO enchain the fancy and enchant the
eye.
This paper has made several offer
ings to it's readers, all of which have
been appreciated, and our latest at
tempt in this direction is the distribu
ton of the Forest CITY Series Of
Worlds Fair Art Portfolios, depicting
the great Exposition now in full swing
at ST. Louis.
The Portfolios containing these views
are going very rapidly and are de-
lighting every person who inspects
them aud with reason, for they have
been most carefully selected from the
photographs taken at a large expense
by the official photographer of the
Exposition, the description accompa-
nying the views having been written
by Walter b. Stevens, the wehknOwn
journalist, who was chosen to be the
Secretary of the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition.
OF course, this distribution is for the
benefit of our readers only or for those
who become such.
Although the regular price of each
portfolio is % cents, our readers secure
the parts at the nominal cost of only
10 cents. to cover the expense of hand
ling, wrapping, addressing and mail
ing.
Inspection alone can convey an idea
of the vast interest and exceptional
value of the series, and it is quite safe
to say that there is no one who sees
any issue of the portfolios that will not
earnestly desire to possess the entire
series
This object can be very easily accom-
plished, since it is only necessary to
bring or send the little coupon printed
from time to time in our announce
ments. together with ten cents to pay
the nominal charge mentioned, and
any part desired will be forwarded at
once. Five parts now ready.

CLEVELAND
WILL TALK LATER
IS GRATIFIED WITH THE NOMINA-
TON OF PARKER AND MAY DIS
CUSS THE PLATFORM.

BUZzARD'S BAY CMass.), July O.
Former President Cleveland, who is the
guest of Joseph Jefferson here, was
notified of the nomination of Judge
Parker for President as soon as he
awoke this morning Later Mr.. CleVe-
land gave out the following statement:
Mr.. Cleveland declines to see any re-
porter or any representatives of the
press, but sends the following word
81 ann in absolute ignorance of the
action of the st. Louis Convention ex-
cept in so far as it has nominated
Mr.. Parker as the presidential candi-
date. With the result am abundantly
gratiied, and hope that the remainder
of the work of the convention win add
to the encouraging prospects of Demo-
cratic success. This is all I can pos,
sibly say at this time. I don't know
when I shall have an opportunity to
read the platform adopted or to learn
of the entire proceedings of the con-
vention In any event it is absolutely
certain that no further expression from
me may be expected at the present time
| hope to be relieved of further inn
portunities on this subject"

and with a desire to give the news, we
in good faith translated and published
the item stating that we had received
it from another journal. The original
publishers of the item were considered
to have infringed the press regulations
regarding military secrets by printing
it and have been prosecuted. We, too,
are considered liable for translating it
and today the Editor of this paper was
examined at the Saibansho and fined Y
20 for said offence. Our only defence
was that we had good authority in the
papers originally publishing the item
and that If we had sinned it had been
innocently. This the Procurator was
kind enough to admit and urged upon
the Court as "extenuating circumstan-
ces," saying that it was evident from
the record of the Gazette that it was
in sympathy with the japanese cause
and that the publication objected to
had not been made with any malicious
intent. The Court, after Withdrawing,
announced the fine as stated, adding
that the Gazette had five days in which
to appeal.
The effort to publish the news is be-
set with difficulties these days, but the
Gazette will continue to endeavor to
give as much news and as early as pos
sible as heretofore.
We understand that the proprietor
and editor of the Japan Herald were
each fined Y.2O for publication of the
same item.

Of The Louisiana Historical Society,

/ Great ascesslons of territory, BY

We of this Great Republic rejoice
that the Louisiana Purchase trans.
action, which doubled the area Of
the United States, did not involve
the shedding of human blood nor
the sacrifice of human life.

This was the transfer BY France TO

where the actual transfer took
place. Therefore it ,s that Louls,.

BRIDE coNFEssEs TO MURDER.
Rae Krauss Serving Life Term for
Staying Stepdaughter.

Rae Krauss Serving Life Term for
Staying Stepdaughter.
After many weeks of stout denial in
the face of almost absolute proof, Mrs.
Rae Krauss confessed in court at Hart
ford City that she administered strych-
nine that killed her stepdaughter, Crys-
tai Krauss, who died In commissions
Aug. 2. The confession was a surprise
even to the woman's lawyer. After the
admission the woman was sentenced to
prison for life and was taken at once to
the women's prison in Indianapolis. A
mob at the station Kissed Mrs. Krauss
and uttered threatening cries as she
boarded a train for prison.
1t came out that the confession was
drawn from the woman by her husband,
who, with that idea in view, visited her
every day in Jail. He was instructed in
his actions by States Attorney Burns.
An indictment was returned and the
trial was begun at once, in accordance
with the prisoners demand. Late in the
afternoon a jury was secured, and when
the usual questions as to guilt Or limo
cence was put, Mrs. Krauss replied,
calmly, Guilty"
The word startled the court room, as q
fight had been expected and the defend
ants attorney had consulted with her
up to the opening of court as to her de-
tense. At the dramatic moment Mrs.
Krauss produced a paper and handed it
to Judge Vaughn. 1t was her written
confession. She said in her statement
that she did not realize what she was do
ing, and expressed deep penitence.
Crystal was Is years old, and her step
mother, who was married to w. r.
Krauss, a prominent druggist only two
months before the murder, is q. Both
women were active in church affairs.
Krauss intended to leave his fortune Of
about $4,000 to his daughter.
The girl died suddenly, after a meal.
Mrs. Krauss advanced the suicide the
DRY. When suspicion began to point
strongly toward the older woman chem
ical examination of the contents Of the
dead girls stomach showed she had been
killed with strychnine.

Tariff Reform.

10 have even the most gross in
.,,,oIftias Of the tariff revised, there
s,,,s+ he a Congress elected which is
favorable to revision. The dominant
s..+on of the Republican party is
t,,,- and soul with the protectionists,
nn1 the only revision Of the tariff
,I.. wou1d attempt would be to revise
il 1fgher. If the Republicans control
.ra next Congress they will organize
.ra WAYS and Means Committee,
tIronob which sieve all tariff bills
r,rs+ mass 80 that no reform bill will
ho reported and allowed to come to
,,o+a If the Republicans have only
-, small majority in the next Congress
.,o,, will fear to allow any bill affect
tro. the tariff to reach the stage Of dis
.,,-..on for there will be some few
psoubIfcan members, like Mccall OF
massachusetts,, who will vote with
ra Democrats for reciprocity with
1easIa. and perhaps also for amend
,.an+s which would prevent the trusts
rr,m selling abroad cheaper than
here
So the only hope Of revision is that
fine Democrats will have the major
ffv Of the House Of Representatives
and send a reasonable bin to the Sen
ata that will put the members of that
body on record either for or against
the most gross iniquities of the tariff.
tho
ci3I ini0uities of the tariff are passed
by Democratic House of Represen-
ta-fyes there is good reason to believe
that several Republican Senators
would think twice before voting
eoafnst such measures Of relief from
trrfSt exactiOns. Public opinion would
also have its effect upon that coterie
# trust auxiliaries-the Republican
members of the Senate Committee on
Ffnance-of which Senator Aldrich is
chairman, who may be retired to pr1-
yate life. if the independent voters Of
Rhode Island do their duty.
In spite of his former tariff reform
nroalivites. President Roosevelt has
surrendered to the protectionists, so
those voters who feel the burden Of
trust high prices, or who for ethical
reasons favor reform, should vote for
Judge Parker With a Democratic
President and Congress, there will be
some hope of tariff reform and GER
tainty Of a thorough investigation Of
the frauds in all departments of the
government and retrenchment in the
present extravagant expenditures.

made man. When % years old he came
to Columbus and entered the law Office
of r. B. Warden as a student. In 1857
he was admitted to the bar, but short
ly afterward became city editor Of the
Ohio State Journal. Mr.. Nash left the
EDITORS chair to become chief clerk in
the office of Secretary Of State Sher-
wood in 1869. The next year he was
nominated for prosecuting attorney Of
Franklin county and elected In 1879
he was made attorney general of the
state and reelected in 1881. He re-
signed before his second term ended to
take place on the Supreme Court
commission. Retiring from this COM
mission in 1885, he devoted himself to
private law practice until 1899, when
he was nominated for governor of
Ohio by the Republican party. He was
elected in 1900 and again in 1902.

strong Words Against Hazing,

Chancellor McCracken, in his opening
address delivered in the chapel of New
York University to more than 300 stu
dents, took occasion to rebuke- the ten
dency of unruly college men to expend
their surplus energies in lawlessness, and
bullying underclassmen. On this line
he said:
Possibly the formation of such clubs
as l suggest may offer an outlet for
the superfuous energy which is overflow
ing in many college students at the be-
ginning of the school year, especially
among those who have just become soph-
ignores. Such students often form clubs
with the unavowed object of commit
ting acts Of a mischievous and sometimes
criminal nature. From such organiza-
lions arise cases Of attacks by a dozen
stout fellows upon some solitary victim
picked for hazing, or the destruction Of
public or private property. The best club
for such fellows as these is the police
mans club, and the. best meeting place
the station house or the bar of the police
iudge.'
