ALL WISHED TO HAVE HAND IN
REUNION OF JONES
FAMILY.
Proposed Picnic Called Of in Pom.
sylvania on Account of Too
Many Joneses.

SCRANTON, Pa, June 9.-The pro-
posed picnic Of all the Joneses in
northeastern Pennsylvania, which was
to have been held this summer. has
collapsed.
There were too many Joneses and too
many make trouble.
The program of the day was all
right as far as 1t went, but it provided
features for only about twenty Joneses
and, as there are several hundred who
consider themselves quite as capable
OF making speeches or singing songs as
| the twenty who were selected the jeal-
ousy thus created was not pleasant.
Then there were other faults. Many
women who were originally Joneses
have married and are now williams,
Davis or Roberts, but they do not see
why they were not eligible to attend.
One married woman named Williams
wrote that if her mother and father
and her brothers and sisters were ad-
mitted she did not see that the COM
mittee had right to keep her out and
| that she did not think the committee
was capable of doing it, and if there
was any doubt of the matter she was
willing to have them test it.
Then it was also found that there
were more Joneses than even the most
liberal promoter of the plan had anti
cipated and not only was the park like
ly to overflow, but there were Jones
singers, Jones poets, Jones acrobats,
Jones humorists, Jones orators, Jones
monologists, Jones entertainers, who
demanded places on the program.
1t has been roughly figured that if
all were given a place it would take
eight days of fifteen hours each to
complete the program, without allow
ing for encores.
There were also the Jones poIiti-
clans who said it was all a scheme of
other Jones politicians, and there We're
JOneses who sold this and Joneses
who sold that who said that Joneses
who sold other things were planning
the picnic to make money out of it.
Altogether the promoters of the plan
discovered that there were so many
Joneses with ideas which differed from
their own and so many who wanted
privileges that they had stirred up a
veritable hornets nest of Joneses.

STATE LAW IS UPHELD.
Supreme Court Rules in Favor of the
Dental Statute.

The supreme court has affirmed the
decision of the Spokane county SUI
perior court in the cases of T. A. Par
sons, F. NJ. Slime, the New York Den
tai Co, Charles Spencer and T. Haven
White. The parties were engaged in
the practice of dentistry in Spokane
and it was charged that they were
practicing without having complied
with the law. When arraigned in the
superior court they all pleaded guilty
and were sentenced to pay fines of $50
each. They then appealed on the
ground that the state law was uncon-
stitutional
The supreme court has now decided
that the conviction and sentence were
proper, thus practically sustaining the
law.

LONDON, July 9.-The fact has just

windfall by the death Of the Duke OF
Cambridge. Many of the leases grant,

fifty years ago were on the three lives
system. Instead of running for a
specified number of years they were
granted for the term Of the survivor

these leases, and all of these now re-

Hearst Claims Illinois.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 9.-Democratic
politics in Illinois is livening up in
view Of the state convention to be held
at Springfield next week. The con-
vention will name delegates to the
national convention in addition to pla-
cling in nomination a state ticket. The
Hearst boomers appear confident that
their candidate has sufficient delegates
pledged to insure his Endorsement, but
the opposition is prepared to carry on
the fight to the last ditch and strong
hope is expressed that Hearst instruc-
tions will yet be defeated. Compare
lively little attention has been paid
so far to the contest for nominations
on the state ticket. A half dozen names
are mentioned in connection with the
gubernatorial nomination and the out
come of the contest cannot be predict
ed as yet with any degree Of certainty.

The Legend Of Lauohino.Eves

BY M. P. Lindsey
III 'he loVellest part of the New World,
Inc rugged and strong Northwest
Where the mountains and forests and
waters
Are with beauty by Manitou blest.
Where the perfume of spices and
flowers
Exhales from forest and sod.
And the birds of the dawn sing, full
throated,
Their anthems Of gladness to God,
Lived Laughing Eyes, pride Of her
tribesmen,
AS free as the birds Of the air.
Climbed mountains or swan the Will
lamette,
Or braided bright beads in her hair.
But there came to her fathers councils
A cruel young chief from afar,
Who won the maid from her tribesmen
BY his daring and skill in war.
He carried her far to the northward;
He broke her in spirit and heart,
Till one still, starry night in the
springtime
She slipped from his tribe apart.
And travelled for days to the southwark
In search Of her fathers face,
The heart sore and hungry within her
For glimpse of her loved, lost race.
And the old chief found her, dying,
Clasping her papoose's hand,
Where the wide, warm sweetness Of
summer
Was ashine like Gods smile on the
land.

CHICAGO, June 9.-One Of the most

1;shment of a tent colony at Ottawa,

The site containing twenty-five OF
thirty acres on a bluff overlooking IL

use Of the colony, and arrangements
are now in progress for the purchase
of the tents and other equipments. At
first the capacity Of the colony will be
about thirty patients, though the limit
will be increased from time to time
Men and women patients will be re-

It is the purpose OF the physicians

this climate when not too far advanc-

The Ottawa colony is to be in the
nature of a consumption cure expert
ment, and physicians throughout the
state Will be invited to visit and OBJ
serve its workings. From this begin
ming it is anticipated that similar
camps will be established all over the
state.
The only cost to patients will be the
actual expense of the food. This item,

OF AGRICULTURE
CALLS ATTENTION TO DE.

Speaks a Good Word for the Common
Toad as True Friend of
Man.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. June e-The
government through the department Of
agriculture has come to the defense Of
the common toad, and spoken a good
word for it as the true friend Of man.
So much that is false has been written
and believed about this humble deni-
zen of the road and fields, that a state
ment of his numerous good qualities,
by a scientist who has spent many
patient years in personal investigation
is thought to be timely: henceforth the

1876, which ought to secure for the toad
warm place in the heart Of every
thoughtful person.
1t is a heavy tax which insects levy
on agriculture, and much time has
been given by scientists to the exploit
alton of remedies for combating the
pests. The general public is beginning
to understand something Of the value
of birds as destroyers of noxious in
sects, and this understanding has taken
concrete form in statutes in nearly all
of the states, looking to the preserva-
ton of bird life, but apparently it is
not generally known that toads, ugly
though they are, and objects of dis
gust and even Of fear to many people.
perform a service for the farmer and
gardener and for the public generally
as important as that performed by
birds.
Long Standing Burden.
The toad is unfortunate in that he
has had to bear the burden of long
standing and firmly fixed misrepre-
sentation and prejudice. We have
adopted in their entirety the principal
European traditions concerning the
toad, as set forth by the very early
writer's on natural history. Hence in
the popular thought this meek and
harmless little animal is venomOus and
filled with all manner of uncleanness.
Among the best know traditions is
that which credits the toad with pro-
ducing warts on the hands. Others
say that it's breath is poisonous to in
fants, and that if killed by accident or
design it will produce bloody milk in
COWS.
1t should not be necessary to say
that none of these traditions has the
slightest foundation in fact, and that
the toad. instead of being all these
things, is a modest and reliable friend
Of the agriculturalist everywhere, and
does his full share of the work Of free
ing the earth Of insect pests.
Government scientists have exam
ined the stomachs Of large numbers Of
toads for the purpose of securing def
mite information regarding their diet.
From estimates made with great care,
it is known that the average toad will.
during one growing season, consume
216O cut worms, 1900 myriapods, 2160
SOW bugs, 3240 ants, $50 weevils, and
$50 ground beetles. Many gardeners
give children a penny for every cut
worm found, and at this nominal figure
the value of a single toad each season
it $21.6O.

"Sunset Express Very Fine.
"The Sunset Express" the
newly equipped through train
on the Southern Pacific, arrived
in San Antonio for the first time
this morning from New Orleans
and is undoubtedly the finest
equipped train that ever came in
the city.
Many of the coaches are en-
tirely new and the old ones have
been completely overhauled.
One of the features of the new
train is a special observation
car for the accommodation of
the travellers. The car is extra
long and is luxuriously finished.
About One-fOurth of the car is
an observation room. 1t is
almost a house of glass and
furnished with the finest OF
movable chairs.
At the other end of the car
along one side are a number OF
tables at which drinks are
served, while at the other side
by the very large windows are
tables and chairs where the
travellers can write or otherwise
occupy themselves.
This is only one of the many
cars that are to be added to
this train in order to enhance the
comfort of the through traveller.

Is it a Sign of the Times.

Times Democrat.
The announcement is made
from Chicago that the United
States Steel Corporation, the
greatest industrial concern in
the world, has decided to de-
clare war upon the United
States government, and
we may have an opportunity
of learning soon whether the
creature of the laws is superior
to the laws and the law-making
power. The war has it's origin
in a recent ruling of the
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion that rate division with indus
trial roads are illegal. The great
East and West trunk lines of
the country, with one exception,
have agreed to discontinue
these divisions in obedience to
the ruling of the commission,
but the giant corporation, it is
said has induced one road to
defy the government. and to
decline to stop the division.
The Chicago, Lake Shore and
Eastern is controlled by the
trust, and the Wisconsin Cen
trail will work with that road in
defiance of the order of the
commission.
With the Wisconsin Central
to start with, the trust may be
able to make other roads come
into it's illegal combine and
finally obtain the surrender of
all the trunk lines. 1t is rather
startling that a private corpora
ton should have the hardihoOd
to defy the government in such
a bold manner, but it is natural
that furtive violation of the law
followed by violations winked
at by the authorities, should
eventually lead to open defiance.
The period of open defiance has
come, and it remains to be seer
what the administration will DE-
about it. Should it hesitate
now to enforce the law rigidly
irrespective of whom it hurts
it may expect similar acts o,
defiance from the other trusts
which have also passed the
furtive period Of lawbreak
ing and the period of Officia
nOdding.
