Many who we're treating the oandi-
dacy of W. R. Hearst as a joke a few
months ago, begin to realize he is
really the strong feature to be consid-
dered and his bold fight on the crimi-
nal trusts is bringing down upon him
every possible force they can muster
to prevent his nomination. It was
this, more than all else combined that
New York was not permitted to have
the convention, and it was sent to st.
Louis, to get away as far as possible
from the influence Of Mr.. Hearst's
great newspaper. Now It is announc-
ed that Mr.. Hearst will soon launch
another daily American in st Louis.
This will make the fifth big city in
which the Hearst great dailies take
the lead. He is a factor all right.

John Wicks, Fourth.

Altoona, Pa, July 4.-There was no
fireworks display today in Coupon, a
town on the summit of the Alleghen-
les. The celebration has already come
off and, as it was premature, there was
plenty of excitement while the fire.
works lasted. John Wicks, the village
merchant, was the indirect cause. Wicks
drove to town to purchase his supply
of fireworks. He remained in the city
until Sunday afternoon, starting home
late with wagon load of firecrackers.
skyrockets and squads. Just as he
reached the outskirts of the town his
cigar dropped into the straw at the
bottom of his wagon and five minutes
later when near the Union meeting
house he saw the first sign of trouble.
A pinwheel which was ignited by the
Smouldering straw was seized with
tantrum, leaped from it's box and
spread sparks through the entire cargo.
A Roman candle pointed Wicks' way
and drove him to the woods. A hum
bred skyrockets which inclined in the
direction of the meeting house let go
about the same time. They went IN
through the open windows simultane-
ously and caused a panic among the
congregation. By the time the congre-
CATION reached the open street Wicss'
wagon and it's frightened horses were
disappearing up the main street in a
blaze of glory. Fortunately no one was
injured in the stampede to escape from

was finally called at just o'clock
and lasted about eighteen minutes.
Probably a hundred dollars ex-
changed hands in betting at the ring
side. The odds were even at the
start, the Kerns followers forcing the
betting. When Williams showed his
superiority, his stock went up, but his
friends made no offers of odds.
A North Topeka jointist had a load
of Rochester on the grounds. Quite
a number of the sports were saturated
both within and without before the
fight began, and some were more wet
inside than out. After the fight, a
free-for-all fracaS was only averted
by the interference of cooler heads at
the ringside. A little difficulty over
betting resulted among a few of the
fraternity, and the interested begged
for a chance to show their enemies
what they could do to them in the
ring. 1t was disgraceful enough to
satisfy the most depraved.

FISHING IN MAINE.
The Outlook for Good Catches Is
Excellent.

The man who is something of a nat
uralist and who wishes to mingle out
door exercise with his angling can
make no mistake in going to most any
of the resorts in Washington, Hancock
Penobscot, PiScataquis or ArOos took
counties. If he goes for social pur-
poses and to get his name into the pa
pers regardless of cost, Rangeley Lakes
are attractive. If he goes for plain fish
and plenty of them, the fishermen of
Bangor who have tried all and held
fast to that which is good say that
MOOSehead Lake covers all demands
better than any other place This is
said not in the way of personal indorse-
ment of any place. We have not Wis
tied one-half of the resorts in Maine
and cannot speak with certainty as to
those we have tried. What we say here
is the substance of opinions which have
been collected from scores of good fish
ermen, all of whom are candid men who
have no wish to advertise one resort at
the expense of any other.
The outlook for angling in Maine this
year is very good. There are many
trout and landlocked salmon and lakers
in our waters. We have pickerel and
black bass and perch. The commission
ers have money they can expend in
stocking the depleted ponds and in
widening their fields of operation. For
the first time in the history of the
state, our fish are receiving a reason
able measure of protection. 1t is be-
law to continue his work All indica-
tions show that Maine has more fish
and better fishing privileges than any
other state. 1t is hoped that residents
and visitors may have good success

A sick coffee drinker must take two
steps to be rid of his troubles and get

The first is to cut off coffee abso-

good strong and healthy cells in place
of the broken down cells destroyed by
coffee. With well boiled Postum Food
Coffee to shift to, both these steps are
easy and pleasant. The experience of
a Georgian proves how important both
are.
