ROOSEVELT SAYS GUARD HOME.
Makes Address at a Washington Catho-
lie Church Anniversary.

Speaking at the 10th anniversary of
the founding of st. Patrick's church in
Washington President Roosevelt said:
"While in this country we need wise
laws, honestly and fearlessly executed,
and while we cannot afford to tolerate
anything but the highest standard in
public service of the government, yet
in the last analysis the future of the
country must depend upon the quality
of the individual home, of the individual
man or woman in that home.
eve have grown to accept it as an
automatic truth Of our American life that
the man is to be treated on his worth as
man, without regard to the accidents
of his position; that this is not a gov
eminent designed to favor the rich man
as SUCH or the poor as such, but that it
is designed to favor every man, rich or
poor, if he is a decent man, who acts
fairly by his fellows.
''The field for charitable, philanthropic,
religious work is wide and that while a
corner of it remains untitled we do a
dreadful wrong if we fail to welcome the
work done in that field by every man, nc
matter what his creed, provided only
he works with lofty sense of his duty
to God and his duty to his neighbor"

Miss Johnson was an excellent
teacher but her taste in dress, espe
cially head-dress, was so peculiar that
even her adoring pupils could not fail
to notice it. The yerdure which ap-
peared upon Miss Johnsons hat one
season was so gaudy that several Won
dering comments were made by the
boys.
I'm going to ask her what that
green stuff isl said one boy, valiantIy,
in spite of the vigorous objections of
his companions. ''She won't mind, and
next nature study class I'm going to
ask her, and see who's right"
SO, red in the face but stubborn, he
rose at the end of lesson on wayside
flowers, in response to Miss Johnsons
general request for any questions
which might have come up since the
last lesson
I'D like to know about that green
stuff on your hat he said, bluntly.

it is vain imagining, how the mere sug-

He laughs in a way l like not. "She

he mutters, and his remark rankles.

them with a little diplomacy when you
are counting them, They like to feel that
they have not relinquished their liberty,
and you allow them much latitude. You
do not, therefore, drop the reins."
His queer old face, which looks as II
it had been squeezed broadways, takes
a queer expression. He Fuckers it up
into wrinkles in the corners Of his eyes
and mouth and between his brows. His
eyes shoot malicious and sly CLEANS at
me.
''Then you will tighten the reins and
drive with Molly to church tomorrow,
since it has become necessary" he says.
"You can get the license to-day"
"But-but l see not the necessity for
such violent haste" I stammer. "If

tate: as there is not, it would be imper-
tinent on my part to ask it."

ICE OF THE ALPINE GLACIERS
Evidence to Show that 1t Is Receding
There and in Greenland.

Evidence to Show that 1t Is Receding
There and in Greenland.
Observation of the alpine glaciers
during series of years have supplied
proof that these great ice streams have
long been in process of recession. Sim
liar evidence with regard to the
Greenland glaciers has not been col
lected over a wide area, though DR..
M. c. Engell, of Copenhagen, who VS.
tied them, made a collection of facts
which seem to show conclusively that
the glaciers of Greenland are also re-
ceding.
DR.. Engell selected the Jakobshavn
glaciers for his studies because it IS
the only glacier Of Greenland which
has been observed by white visitors
for long period Of time. At least nine
visitors, several of them men OF sci
ence, have examined these glaciers
within the past fifty-three years. They
did not all record the location of its
front so clearly that DR.. Engell, in
making his map, can be certain that
he has correctly assigned the position
of it's face at the time each man saw
it. but there seems to be little doubt
that his map of the retreat of the
Jakobshavn glacier published in Peter
nlann's Mittellungen is approximately
correct.
Among the visitors to the glacier
whose observations are shown on DIR.
Engell's map were Rink, NOrdensk-
iold and other well-knOwn arctic stu
dents.
The map shows approximately the
position of the front of the great gla-
cier in 1850, 1875, 1870; March, 1880;
August, 1893 and 1902. The inforna-
ton given on the map indicates that
in the past fifty-three years the faces
of the glacier has retreated about
eight miles. Not only is it shorter
than it formerly was, but it's mass has
otherwise been reduced to a very con-
siderable extent.
The surface of the glacier now lies
from twenty to thirty feet below it's
former level, and the precipitous walls
of rock that hem it in bear the record
of this change Of level. 1t is found
also that other glaciers in that neigh
borhood are in process Of retreat, anu
the evidence collected by DR.. EngeH
shows that this process has been going
on for a long series Of years.
This evidence would seem to show
that for the past half century the
summer heat has been greater than 1t
was for at least considerable period
before that time, with the result that
on the whole the ice south Of Green
land has been melting little more rap
idly than it has formed.-Baltimore

NOT A GHOST, BUT A CAT.
1t Was Walking on the Piano Keys in
Scary Way.

Scary Way.
A Walbrook family was sitting
about the dining table one evening last
week and the conversation had turned
upon the subject of ghosts, says the
Baltimore Sun. Divergent views being
held by the various members Of the
family, the discussion became ANNA
ted.
Suddenly above the hum Of voices,
the clatter Of dishes and clink Of sill
yer, there f1oated in through the light
draperies which separate the dining
room from the parlor the notes Of the
piano in that inharmonious tumble
which is usually produced by the first
untutored efforts of tot to make the
big music box talk" The CONVERSE
ton in the dining room was brought
to a sudden stop and the diners be-
came motionless, some with soup
spoons half way to their lips, while
all assumed attitudes Of concentrated
attention.
Every one in the house was at the
table; doors and windows were mostly
closed and even if they hadn't been it
was incredible that any one should
have had the audacity to walk into a
house and begin to play the piano. The
subject of the interrupted conversation
suggested the nearest solution of the
riddle-ghosts. A queer expression
succeeded the animation Of moment
before on each face and the diners
stared blankly across the table at each
ether
Then the phenomenon was repeated,
the notes this time being little higher
up the keyboard than before. The la
dies began to turn pale and those OF
the opposite sex took on an expression
of puzzled annoyance. When the piano
gave forth a third series of discordant
sounds one Of the men, with an air Of
heroic daring, arose from his chair,
went to the door on tiptoe and gently
drawing aside the curtains peeped eau
tiously into the next room. Then fol-
lowed some very emphatic words,
which at once relieved the tension in
the dining room.
John" one Of the ladies managed
to gasp forth, but her fears and curios-.
ity stayed the feeble protest here and
she finished in tone in which resent
ment struggled with curiosity. ''Wh-
| what is it?"
"Come and see,'' was the ungenerous
reply, and a slow and circumspect
movement toward the dividing door
took place. Half a dozen heads peered
| very carefully through the curtains as
John held them back, and in the dim
| ness of the parlor was seen a black
and white cat, the especial pet of the
entire household, perched on the key
board of the piano and sedately regard
| ing her astonished masters and mis-
| tresses.
"Puss, puss, pussr' called one Of the
ladies, in a greatly relieved tone, and
puss bounded over the keys, again pro-
! ducing the "ghostly" discord, jumped
to the floor and came up in obedience
to the call.
There was no further talk of ghosts.

DIR. J. w. Knox, of Lewisport, Han
cock county, whose announcement for
State Senator appears in this issue, is a
well-known citizen of that town and
county and, so far as we know, bears a
good reputation. He represented that
county in the Legislature one term and
made fair record. We have never
heard any of his acts questioned and we
presume if he didn't do any good for
his constituents he didn't do them any
harm. We will say this for Mr.. Knox,
That he believes in letting people know
that he is a candidate and wants the Of
fee and that there is no better way to
do that than through the newspapers.
He knows that i is impossible for him
to see every voter in the district, hence
sends his photograph through the News.
Take a look at his picture. 1t is a good
one of fine, handsome-looking man
with broad, open countenance and
fine physique. He looks like a man

Democrats but Republicans as we'll.
