al Republican Committee

NEW YORK, March 5.-Stating that
he was suffering from a fever, cold and
sore throat, Governor B. B. Odell to-
day abandoned his proposed trip to
Washington to consult with President
Roosevelt, and returned to Albany, at
the same time positively putting him
self out of line for the Craftsmanship Of
the National Republican Committee.
Nothing has been settled yet" the
Governor said as to his acceptance of
the State Craftsmanship, land this mat
ter is still under consideration"
In mentioning the permanent aban-
donment for the present of the Wash
ington trip Governor OdeH also made
an emphatic declaration on the subject
of his leadership In this State. stating
that there is nothing in the affairs of
the party in this State that 1 cannot
settle myself without assistance If 1
wish, and the President isn't apt to call
on me to settle the affairs ef the ma
ton. 1 shall not go TO Washington for
some time, as 1 have several engage
ments UP the State, and there is moth
ing L wish to see the President about

mo, 1 never had any such idea," he
replied 1T is not the kind of work 1
am looking for, and 1 would not ac-
cept it il it were offered to me on a
silver platter
WASHINGTON, March 5.-President
Roosevelt received a telephone message
from Governor Odell last night inform
ing him that he hao been attacked by a
severe cold. This morning the Presi-
dent received a telegram from the Gov
ernor saying that he would be obliged
to return Immediately to Albany, as
his physicians had informed him that
he had an attack of the grip. He stated
therefore that he would be unable to
keep his engagement with the Presi-
dent to-day President Roosevelt wrote
the Governor, expressing regret that
he would be unable to come to Wash
ington at this time, and telling him he
would be glad to see him at any time
in the near future.
1t can be authoritatively stated that
Governor Odell has not been offered the
Craftsmanship of the Republican Ma
tional Committee. and that there is no
probability that he will be. offered the
position 1t was none of the objects of
Governor Odells visit to Washington
TO discuss the national craftsmanship
with the President so far as the accept
ance of the place by the Governor was
concerned 1t is understood that Gov
ernor OdelPs visit is merely postponed.

SAYS THE PRICE is TOO LOW.
President Opposes Terms Fixed in
South Dakota Land Bill.

WASHINGTON, March 5. = Repre-
sentative James Sherman of New
York. chairman of the Indian Affairs
Committee of the House of Repre-
sentatives, had a conference to-day
with the President regarding the bill
providing for the opening to Settle
ment of 416,000 acres of land in the
Rosebud Reservation, South Dakota
BY the terms of the measure the land
may be sold to settlers for not less
than SO an acre, the amount of the
purchase price to be paid in five an
nual installments, the land not sold
under the first offer to be allotted at
81 an acre. President Roosevelt in
formed Sherman that he was unalter-
ably opposed to the terms of payment
fixed in the bill as it passed the House.
In fact his opposition to the price of
the land as specified in the House bill
is so strong that if the measure were
passed by Congress in that shape he
would veto 1t. 1t has been shown by
excellent authorities that the land is
worth an average price of at least Sc
an acre. at the lowest, and some of II
is worth as much as $25 an acre.

from rust rub them over with lard
and heat them in the oven.
The faint of fish may be removed

A kitchen table, after scrubbing and

ing them out with water to which q

A Poor Auth GRITTY.

! Dan Wilson was once trying case
before q Missouri justice of the peace
when the opposing counsel cited
"Greenleaf on Evidence" so decidedly
against him that bold push must be
made Wilson asked him for the book,
opened it, rose and, with a look Of
solemn surprise, said he was amazed
that so good a lawyer should bring
such a book as that into court why
nid he. the author himself never
inorght of It's being used for authority
In any cd e lust hear what he says
In fl e preface. Doubtless happier Sc
lection of these principles might be
made. and the. work might have been
much better executed by another hand,
for, now it is finished | find it but an
approximation toward what was origi-
nally desired. But in the hope that it
may still be found not useless as the
germ of better treatise it Is submit
ted to the candor Of a liberal profess
sion Now" continued Wilson, "an
author who admits that his work is as
bad as this certainly never expected it
to be brought into court to govern the
opinions of gentleman who has sat
on the bench as your honor has for
eighteen months" The justice was
perfectly satisfied. He ruled the "au-
thority" out as of no account what
ever and gave his judgment for Will
son and his client.

Beauty and Intell1gence.

Notwithstanding human superiority,
mankind is as much a part of nature
as any other of its facts. For this rea
son the standard of beauty may be
applied to woman. But the dual nature
she possesses deprives her Of consider
alton solely upon that ground. If she
Is emulous of tributes of infinitely
higher worth than the adulation paid
to physical projections. she must be
intelligent in that broad sense Of the
word that embraces character. A wo-
man without intellect is the most in
sipid thing in the created universe. Be
she ever SO handsome, she is but tie
lees of good wine, a mere aromatic
suggestion Of what she is not. By the
laws of her life beauty alone can new
er afford her the commentator which
it brings to the birds, the flowers and
the sunset. She is separated from these
by the width Of soul.-Baltimore

Healthy Girls.

1t is no longer fashionable with the
fair sex to feign delicacy, nor are the
girls of the coming generation actuated
by an insane desire to appear fragile
and genteel at the expense of health.
The score Of buXom, bright eyed young
ladies one will meet in any of our pub
lie thorOughfares any afternoon is am
pie evidence of the truth of the aSSer-
ton. No longer do the fair ones seem
wan and pale to look upon. nor is their
style of loc0motion suggestive of eff
fort; but, on the contrary, nearly all
seem strong and 1.-the of limb and with
cheeks suffused with the ruddy glow
of health. Doctors generally agree that
there is far less sickness among the
sex than had formerly been the case,
and this could be attributed solely to
the glorious practice young ladies had
