A Little Free with the judge.

Congressman Bankhead, of Ala
bama, has a weakness for gambling
stories. one that he tells is of time
when a spasmodic attempt was being
made to drive gamesters out of Mo-
bile A witness was on the stand tes-
tifying for the defense, it being well
known that the judge was a skillful
poker player. The witness talked of
going blind raising" passing" and
SO on, and finally his honor said,
gravely: Mr.. Jackson, you are using
a good many of what I presume are
technical terms. Will you be good
enough to explain some of them?'' The
witness, with equal gravity, replied:
Il shall be pleased to do so, your
honor, if you will kindly let me have
your poker deck for a few moments"

from letter written to a friend from
her fort on Belle isle, in Brittany:
You want to know what 1 do at Belle

self. 1 lead a paradoxical life at Paris,
as you know. One must breathe, new
ertheless. The same destiny which
has made me the servant of an art in
which the brain, heart, sensibility, in
telligence alone work has given me a
taste, a need, mania for physical
movement. How do 1 reconcile these
two? L do not, but 1 go to Belle isle.

AS THE WORLD
REVOLVES
CHILDREN in THE SCHOOLS.

Sixteen Million Enrolled According to
Annual Report
The annual report OF the United
States commissioner of education
shows that more than 100000 pu-
pills, or 20.04 per cent of the entire
population of the country are enrolled
in our common schools.
The average daily attendance for
1903 was 11,054,502, the same being
69.2 per cent of the total number en-
rolled. This is the largest average at
tendance in the number enrolled ever
reported in the United States. 1t was
only 59.3 per cent in 1870.
it appears from this report that
women are rapidly supplanting men
rs school teachers. Male teachers
formed nearly 80 per cent of the en-
tire number OF teachers in 1870, and
nearly 43 per cent in 1880, but only 26
per cent in 1903. The wages of teach
ers have also increased.
This report, taken in connection
with the fourishing Indian and other
schools supported by the nation,
shows that we shall take our place
soon among the most highly favored
nations in point of education.

ted the murder. Fox refused to &C
count for his own loafing around the
scene of the murder.
John L. McGraw of Chicago was ar
rested in the city workhouse, where he
was committed on the charge of disor
derby conduct. After the murder it
was noticed that the description of
the prisoner tailed with that of the
man seen about the scene of the
crime. McGraw was taken from the
Torkhouse and locked up.
Suspicious spots on his clothes will
be examined as to whether they are
blood. While investigating the STEM
geweg tragedy detectives found an I'M
portant witness in the Lulu Mueller
case-one who will be relied upon to
smash the alibi of Wilson and Salmon.
Henry Mueller, brother of the slain
Lulu Mueller, learned that George
Engel, a cooper, claims to have seen
Salmon, Wilson and Miss Mueller at
9:15 O'Clock on the night of the girls
death. This was not more than if
teen minutes before the time of her
death.

among other things, says:
Let US be thankful that our colonies
are not SO full of corn as our corn is
full of kernels. Though the surround
ing soil, tickled with a hoe, is laugh
ing with harvest, poor folks are still
with US. From thin soup and cold
potatoes, good Lord, deliver them.

Lord for the most charming crop Of
beautiful babes ever born in the old

morning stars sang together. Sweet.
dainty, darling ones, like sunheams in

An Honest Opinion.

Mineral, Idaho, Nov. 14th.-(Spe-
c:al.)-That a sure cure has been
discovered for those sciatic pains that
make sc many lives miserable, is the
firm opinion of Mr.. D. S. Colson, a
well known resident of this place,
and he does not hesitate to say that
cure is Dodd's Kidney Pills. The
reason Mr.. Colson is so firm in his
opinion is that he had those terrible
pains and Is cured. Speaking of the
matter he says:
81 am only too happy to say Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me lots of
good. I had awful pains in my hip
so 1 could hardly walk. Dodds Kid
ney Pills stopped it entirely. ! think
they are grand medicine"
All sciatic and Rheumatic pains are
caused by Uric Acid in the blood.
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy
Kidneys, and healthy Kidneys strain
all the Uric Acid out of the blood.
With the cause removed there can be
no Rheumatism or Sciatica.

Volcanoes Crater to be a Public Park.

A most original thing is to be
done to the famous Diamond
Head crater by the local government.
for use as a public park To convert
the crater of a volcano into a public
park is highly original, but old Dia-
mond Head possesses such peculiar
and unusual features that a beautiful
park could be made out of it,
Diamond Head is one of the most
picturesque sights In this island. 1t
stands about 1000 feet in height at
the highest point, but consists only of
an outside rim, for inside is the crater
about a mile and a half in circum-
ference. If the place IS turned over
to park commission a road will prob
ably be built around the crater, rum
ming on the crest. Inside the place
could be made into a park. High on
the cliffs are some ancient burial
caves of the Hawaiian chiefs and
these places would add interest to Dia-
mond Head as a park.
The selection of Diamond Head for
park possesses for the Honolulu resi-
dent nothing of the uncanniness that
such a place might inspire in the
minds of others less familiar with
the crater. The volcano has been ex-
tinct for hundreds of years. 1t was
one of the earlier of the Hawaiian
volcanoes to become extinct, and only
in a dim tradition among the ancient
lore of the Hawaiians is there any
reference to the time that Diamond
Head hurled forth fire and lava.

CORNELL SUN IS POPULAR.
College Daily Well Liked by Students
and Alumni

The Cornell Sun. which began the
twenty-fifth year of its publication
with the present college year, is now
the largest college daily in America,
and, so far as known. in all the world.
Besides covering the college news, the
Sun has each morning a page of tele-
graphic news covering the whole
world. A place on the board of edi-
tors and managers is one of the great
est honors in the university, and,
therefore, much striven after. The
places that are made vacant each
year by graduates are filled by COM
petition, as high as thirty underclass-
men starting out in the race for
single position. There is always
money surplus at the end of the year,
which is divided up among the mem
bers of the staff. OF this years board
of editors n. H. Morse of Northpart,
N. Y, is editor in chief, and E. H.
Kelley of Dayton, o., is business man.

Have Wrong Inscription.

At the last reunion of the Army
of the Cumberland a very singular
state of affairs was developed by a
letter to the society from Whitelaw
Reid, challenging the correctness OF
the official inscription upon the mon
uments to the Ohio regiments and bat
teries erected by the State of Ohio,
through its Battlefield Commission, in
the Shiloh National Park The follow
ing extract from Mr.. Reds letter
speaks for itself:
81 should like to ask this socitey to
consider if it does not yet owe a duty
to itself and to its honored dead. Of
fetal publications have only recently
come to my knowledge in which, aside
from personal errors that need not
now be noticed, there appears a
strange distortion of facts as to when
the several parts of the Army of the
Ohio became engaged with the enemy
on the 9Th and 7th of April, 1862.
An old book of my own, Ohio in
the War printed long before the of
fetal reports were accessible, is quot
ed as one authority for these state
ments; but in some few cases 1 have
been able to collate they neither agree
with that work nor with the official

into action is set down on the very
monuments the state have erected on

\. neither this is due to a laundering
effort to shield names which need no
such treacherous props to their solid
renown, and to do it at the expense
of the Army of the Ohio, or whether
it is due to mere incompetence. the
effect is the same Can your society
in loyalty to itself and to it's martyrs
on that field permit these misrepre-
sensations to stand?"
In consequence of the receipt of the
above letter, resolution was passed
that the corresponding secretary for
ward copies of the same to the gov
ernor of Ohio and the Secretary OF
War, requesting them to take meas
ures to test the accuracy of the in
scriptions that have been challenged

The Simple Dish That Keeps Cne Wig
orous and Well Fed.
When the doctor takes his own
medicine and the grocer eats the food
he recommends some confidence comes
to the observer.
A Grocer OF Ossian, Ind, had a
anyone's attention.
He says: six years ago 1 became
SO weak from stomach and bowel
trouble that l was finally compelled
to give up all work in my store, and
in fact all sorts of work, for about four
years. The last year / was confined to
the bed nearly all of the time, and
much of the time unable to retain
food of any sort on my stomach NY
bowels were badly constipated con-
tinually and l lost in weight from
100 pounds down to SO pounds.
"fWhen at the bottom of the ladder
l changed treatment entirely and
started in on Grape-Nuts and cream
for nourishment. l used absolutely
nothing but this for about three
months. 1 slowly improved until
got out of bed and began to move
about.
Il have been improving regularly
and now in the past two years have
been working about fifteen hours a
day in the store and never felt better
in my life.
During these two years have
never missed a breakfast of Grape
Nuts and cream, and often have it
two meals day, but the entire break
fast is always made of Grape-Nr-s ard
cream alone
Since commencing the use of
Grape-Nuts / have never used any
thing to stimulate the action of the

Houston,s Effective Answer.

Representative Cooper of Texas tells
a story about Gen Sam Houston of his
state and a practicing physician who
did not like the old general, being
strenucusly opposed to him politically.
One day, after a heated political dis
cussion, the physician said: General,
like you well enough socially, but
politically 1 would not believe you on
oath" Il would believe you, DOCTOR
was the quiet reply of the general.
Then, sir vehemently exclaimed the
doctor you have a much better opin-
ion of me than / have of you Not
a better opinion. doctor, but 1 simply
have little more politeness than you

eeresford,s Care of His Sailors.

A recent incident serves to show
why Lord Charles Beresford is so
beloved by scamen in the British
navy. While the channel fleet was
at Invergordor one of the marines ON
board the cruiser Theseus became SO
seriously i'll that his removal to the
mainland was rendered impossible. 1t
would equally endanger the mans
life had the vessel gone to sea with
the others, and rather than run any
such risk Lord Charles ordered the
vessel to remain behind. This kindly
act was of no avail, for the man died
within a few hours after the depar-
ture of the fleet, but the kindness of
the admiral has already enhanced his
popularity in the far north.

a British traveller inquired from a Cos

Sheridan's Great Feat.

For personal gallantry, military
skill and just confidence in the cour-
age and patriotism of his troops dis
played by Philip H. Sheridan on the
18th of October, 1864, at Cedar Run,
where, under the blessing of PrCvi-
dence, his routed army was reorgan-
lied, a great national disaster averted
and a brilliant victory achieved over
the rebels, Philip H. Sheridan is ap-
pointed major-general in the United
States army
So runs the order for the promotion
which the president of the United
States, Abraham Lincoln, issued to
honor the hero of Cedar Run and Win
chester. That he had averted a
great national disaster was every
where conceded throughout the entire
