The Fulton (Missouril Gazette re- ports that a minister of that town was moved by the grief of a husband whose wife was to be buried. and sought to commiserate him in the following man ner; My brother, know that this is a great grief that has oyertaken you. and though you are compelled to mourn the loss of this one who was your compan- ion and partner in life, would console you with the assurance that there is another who sympathizes with you and seeks to embrace you in the arms of unfailing love To this the bereaved man replied by asking, as he gazed through tears into the minister's face, What's her name?''

Sir Edward H. Seymour who has been appointed admiral of the fleet to sue ceed Admiral Salmon on the latter,s re tirenent in February, is Of Irish de- scent and comes of a family which has contributed several noted fighters to the British navy. It was Sir Edward who led the allied forces in their un- successful endeavor to reach Pekin in time to relieve the legations there a few years ago. He is sixty-four years old and has been in the navy for over half 8 century. He has served with dis tinction in the Crimean war, in the China war, 1S57-60; was present at the capture of Canton in 1857, was wounded on the coast of Africa in 1870, com, manded the Isis in the Egyptian war, receiving a medal, and was superintend- ent of the naval reserves in 1S94.97.
 A writer in the London Spectator has this to say of the Japanese. If they have always overcome the Russians in the field the Russians have always been able to fall back with their forces prac- tically intact. But by this often-re- peated process the Russians have been converting themselves into q new army. What was raw metal nine months ago has been hammered out by the Japan csc on the anvil Of war, and has become tempered steel. Nothing, indeed, has been more remarkable than this grad ual improvement, during the war, in the fighting efficiency of the Russians. It is no exaggeration to say that their army is ten times more efficient than 1t was last spring. The Japanese. on the other hand, though they began so well, have not improved,

The American League is in better

Every team in the league has been
strengthened, but no team has been
made particularly strong so that the
pennant race viii lose all interest after
a few weeks. l cannot see any reason
why the schedule question between the
two leagues should not be amicably
settled. I think all talk OG rushing
ahead and adopting schedules Is prema-
ture. The season will not open for six
weeks, and II will be easy 20 arrange
everything long before that time.
The American League Is ready for a
pOst-seasOn series OF any length. AL
/ though both leagues have framed long
schedules. / think a series of five games
could be arranged between the two
pennant-winning clubs. and the clubs in
cities where there are two clubs could
also arrange short series. 1 am sure
the baseball public is very much in

CAMPBELL PASSES MILLER

Considering the few games to be
played in the District Bowling League
before the end Of the season. the Saen-
gerbunds have such substantial lead
over the jolly Fat Men that il is al
most certain they will win the cham
pionship
The season closes on March 80. and
until that time the Fat Men play only
three sets. or twelve games, meeting
every team in the league. with the ex-
ception of the Acmes. on the other
hand the Saengerbunds play fifteen
more games. six of them with the
Rathskellers which are last In order
TO tie the Saengers. the Fat Men will
have to win three-fourths of their
games. and the Germans lose seven of
the fifteen. which is not likely to hap
pen.
Campbell DisplaCes Miller.
Much interest is manifest in the fight
for champion Individual honors. For
the past three months the race for first
position has been so close a single low
score would have ousted a man from
the leadership. Another change &C.
CURED last week. George Campbell. of
the Acmes. displacing Willie Miller, of
the Saengerbunds. from first place.
The Acme crack has two points lead
over the German. Five men. Miller,
Krauss, Spiess. Eiker, and Harlow are
tied for second place, with an average
OF 1S3 and a fraction.
In addition to the race between the
Saengerbunds and Fat Men, and the
fight for championship individual hon.
Drs. the competitions between the Asmes
and Golden Eagles for third place IL
creating much interest. Each team has
fifteen games to play before the close
of the season, and at present only one
game separates them. the Acmes hold
ing third position. The South Washing
ton Business Men are fifth, and the
Rathskeners last. 1t is likely the Busi-
ness Men and Raths will hold the same
respective positions at the end OF the
season.

Mr.. Jas. IT. Latimer. has a curiosity
in way of Cuban squash vine. Four
seed were sent him which he planted

space perhaps so feet square, and the
vines are waist high, leaf and fruit
verp large. The writer saw one ofthe
latter, which was twelve or fifteen
inches in diameter, and of such a blue

Latimer says that he had some of them
cooked, and does not consider them
equal in taste to some of our native
sorts, and the vines are but sparse

Dear sir: Your business is. when a house

to build a new one. 1t Is a good business
Queer that the world got on so long without
IT.
We paint the one that burnt down and the
new one too. What is better, we paint the
bouses that don't burn down.
You insure the houses that burn we insure
the houses that don't. You have the ashes
and smoke ; all the houses are ours.
We paint lead. .and-Zinc; DevOe. We sell
the paint to painters; we don't paint.
Lead-apd oil is the old fashion paint. De
voc is zinc ground in with lead and linseed
oil the best paint in the world and the
cheapest because 1t takes fewer gallons than
mixed paints and 1t wears twice as long as
lead-and oil. Nobody wants poor paint
there's lots OF It, though, in the wor d.
