REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.

finally brought his great influence to
bear to secure its passage"
The platform dwells upon the benefits
which will result to the Pacific Coast
through the building of the Panama
Canal. and especially regrets that
Senator Francis G. Newlands so far for
got the substantial interests Of the State
of Nevada as to interpose his vote in
the Senate of the United States against
the ratification Of the treaty between
the United States and the Republic of
Panama in the vain attempt to interdict
the building of the canal"
"For the Senate of the United States

in the past 90 years, who is a bona fde
resident and citizen of Nevada, and
pledges the efforts of the Republican
party to use all honorable means and
the votes of its members in the State
Legislature to secure his election"
The record of the Republican party
is submitted against "the professions of
Democracy on the questions of labor
and capital, and the plank concludes:
'In this State it favors eight hours
labor upon all public works and as the
legal work day in mines, quartz mills
and smelters, and will uphold legislation
giving it proper and equitable force and
effect"
Referring briefly to the State insti-
tutions, the platform sends greeting to
the Silver Republicans and sin view Of
the fact that there is now no issue be-
tween the National parties upon the
subject of finance, cordially invites all
such citizens to renew their political
fellowship with US and to share with us
in the glories of our certain victory at
the coming general election"

The origin Of the phrase Trench
leave is traced back TO custom be-
gun in France and initiated in Eng
land, common enough in the eight
zenith century. of going away from a
social gathering without taking formal
leave of host and hostess.
This is abundantly clear from two
extracts written in 1775. The first is
from Chesterfield's principles of Po-
liteness:' AS the taking what is call
ed French leave was introduced that
on one persons leaving the company
the rest may not be disturbed, looking
at your watch does what that piece of
politeness was designed to prevent"
So also Jekyll: French etiquettes
are precise to degree. l will allow
that taking French leave is easy and
natural; but. on the contrary. there is
more formality in entering one assem-
bly, here than in taking the round of
routs for a whole winter in London"
AS disclaimer to this derivation the
French. on their part. have the phrase.
"se retirer rAnglaise''-''to take Eng
lish leave"-with the same significance.

An Unusual Suicide.

That It is possible to commit suicide
by simply holding ones breath has
been clearly proved by a respondent
Norwegian, who killed himself in this
very unusual manner. When he deter
mined to die he closed his mouth and
nostrils and by mere force of will pre-
vented his lungs from doing their prop
er work
This case is the more remarkable as
there has long been popular notion
that no human being could by mere
will power stop the action of the lungs
for more than one or two minutes. For
this reason 1t attracted much attention,
and French writer. commenting on 1t.
nys:
ITO persons of good taste who are
weary of life this method of commit
ting suicide will certainly commend it.
elf. one reason being because the body
Is not disfigured thereby and another
because the act can be committed in
any place and at any time. 1t is true
that sensitive or nervous persons will
never be able to kill themselves in this
manner. for. simple as it seems, the
act of retaining ones breath until death
comes can only be performed by one
who is either unusually phlegmattc or
endowed with very strong will"

Profits of n Blockade Runner.

Hobart Pasha during his adventurous
career took part in the American civil
war under the name of Captain Rob-
erts as blockade runner. He had an
exciting time. and many of his escapes
were truly marvellous, as described in
his book, Never Caught" According
to his statement, forty ships were cap
tured out of sixty-six that left England
and New York to run the blockade
during the war Some idea of the prof
its may be formed from the fact that
women's stays bought in England for
ID pence sold in Wilmington, one of the
principal blockade running ports, for Il
shillings, and cotton bought at two
pence pound in Wilmington sold for
half crown a pound. The number of
ships captured does not give an ade-
quate idea of the loss sustained, as
many were burned, sunk or run ashore
to prevent them from falling into the
hands of the cruisers.-Chambers Jour-
nal.

Wiles of the Medicine Man.

Here is brief account of the wiles
of the southwestern medicine man as
described In George Wharton James
story. THE Indians of the Painted
Desert Region"
The ways OF the Havasupai medi-
cine men are similar to those Of fakirs
in all lands and ages. l have seen
Rock Jones after examining a patient
jump up and excitedly exclaim: Il can
see into your head and all through your
brains. down your throat and into your
stomach. through your kidneys. blad-
der. intestines. and you are sick. very
sick. very heap sick. But am good
medicine man. | can cure you sure; |
can cure you quick. But you must
promise to give me So. Don't forget |
must have So"
In one case with which was famil-
lar the medicine man declared that the
heart of one sick man had gone away
to the topmost peak of one of the can
yon walls. 1t would cost several dol
lars to charm it back, but he could do
1t. Yielding to the pleadings of the
man without the heart, he began to ex-
ercise his charms and nominations, and
the next day he came in and declared
he had seen 1t return during the early
morning hours and his patient would
recover. His prognostication was cor
rect The man was soon well and
strong and paid his six dollar fee for
having his heart returned to him with
due gratitude and thankfulness.

Fountain Pen Perfection.
The Quaker City Self-Filling Fountain
Pen Fills Itself and thereby
Fills a Long felt Want.
Free Press.


ANY reliable time saver is eagerly
welcomed by the modern business man.
Probably the most forceful illustration
of this condition of things IN recent
years was the enthusiasm with which
the fountain pen was greeted. IL
seemed to mean the saving Of so much
time and annoyance for so, many
people that its sale was simply phe-
nomenal.
But the fountain pen was not by any
means perfect and its users soon dis
covered that the bother was only con-
centrated, instead of being dispensed
with. The finest fountain pen would
write indifferently well as long as there
was ink in it, but when that gave out
our busy man had to stop, unscrew an
inky cap, hunt around for filler and
the particular ink recommended by the
manufacturers of that particular pen
and so on through long process of
annoyance.
The manufacturers of the Quaker
City Self-Filling Fountain Pen have
overcome all this bother and produced
practical writing tool which is as
easy to use as if one were simply writ
ing with the filler needed for the old
pen. There is nothing to unscrew,
nothing to squirt, nothing to lose or
get out of order. Its construction is
Simple and substantial and the opera
ton of filling it so simple that you
wonder nobody thought of it before.
1t is merely necessary to dip the pen
pressing it slightly, lift up as usual
and go on writing. Its capacity is no
less than the bothersome kind.
We feel that we are not er-prais-
ing the Quaker City elf-Filling Foun-
tain Pen when we say that it repre-
sents the acme of fountain pen
achievement.
