A HORRIBLE IDEA. A.:
the Thought That Made One Man .
Temperance Advocate.


An easterner, riding on mail stage
IN northern Colorado, was entertained
by dialogue which was sustained
upon the one side by the driver and
upon the other by an elderly passen-
ger, evidently native of the region.
II understand you're temperance"
began the driver.
Yes, I'm pretty strong against liq-
uor,' returned the other. 1--WE been
set against it now for thirty five
years"
Scared it will ruin your health?"
Yes, but that isn't the main thing"
Perhaps it don't agree with your
ventured the driver.
well, it really don't agree with any,
body. But that amt it either. The
thing that sets me against it is a hor-
rible idea"
"a horrible idea! What is it?"
well, thirty-five years ago was sit
ting in hotel in Denver with friend
Of mine, and says, Let's order bot
tie of something And he says: No,
sir. I'm saving my money to buy gov
eminent land at $1.25 an acre. Pm 60
Ing to buy tomorrow, and you'd better
let me take the money you would have
,pent for the liquor and buy couple
Of acres along with nine says, All
right SO we didn't drink, and he
bought me two acres.
We'll, sir, today those two acres are
right in the middle of fourishing
town, and if I'd taken that drink I'd
have swallowed Il city block, a grocery
store, an apotlecary's, four lawyers
offices and it's hard to say what else.
That's the idea. Amt it horribleY-

The Gods of Iapan,

Japan numbers in its pantheon as

who have deserved well Of their coun-
try, from Kobo Daishi, who gave learn
Ing its handle (writing). to Hirose, who
was blown to pieces in his ship In the
jaws of Port Arthur only the other day,
are canonized into gods, like the saints
of Europe, by the mikados. One Of
these gods In good standing is or was
an Englishman. His name was VIII
Adams, and he was wrecked on the
shores of Japan at the close Of the
Elizabethan century. He is god be-

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAF NESS CANNOI BE CURED
By local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition Of
the mucous lining Of the Bustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness Caused
by catarrD that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars, free.

The Great American Novel.

The great American novel. of which
so much was once heard, does not
come, but the work is gradually being
written in departments. The country
is too vast, as the novellsts have per-
haps seen, for one novel to cover the
ground us they used to hope They are.
therefore, specializing. and some of
them are writing 80 conscientiously

own practitioners whose tendency Is to
repeat convention rather than return

An Oversight.

A glutton once made u bet that he
could eat ten apple dumplings at one
sitting If the other party would pay
for the accompanying wine. After the
ninth dumping. however, he declared
himself beaten. Sadly he regarded the
tenth dumping, which still reposed on
his plate. Shaking his finger at it. he
said: "Ah! If I'd known you'd be
left over I'd have eaten you first

70 ca THE WORD OF PRAGS E
BY nGam hampton

There are some who think it's praising
Not to raise a row and kick,
And they'll pay an extra dollar
To chap that's extra slick;
But il isn't that that heartens-
It's the kind word and the thought
For the deed done and the doer.
Out Of which the good is wrought.
As when the weary pilgrim,
Who has trod the long. hard way,
With its profits and its losses
Measured to him day by day
Hears the kind words of the Master,
Like the songs of cherubim:
Well done, thou good and faithful -
1t IS Heaven enough for him.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1905-09-03

Its an easy thing to say it
And to say II good and strong,
And to say it pretty frequent,
For 1t helps a chap along
On. Of course. you pay him money,
Doubtless all that he is worth;
But does money, man and brother,
Represent the best Of earth:
What's the good of keeping from him
Any good thing YOU might say
That Will lift his load of labor
And Is something more than pay.
If he's worthy Of your praises
Do YOU think that he'll be slack
If YOU tell him he's a good one,
And pat him on the back?

AL REvoIR BUT NOT GOODBYE
Chairman Hamilton to the Subject of
 Joint Statehood

Washington, March 3.-The state hood bill died at 9:3O o'clock tonight when the conference on the bill part cd not to meet again during the Fifty eighth congress. There was a persis- tent effort on the part of the senate conferees to get disagreement re- ported to the two houses. but the house conferees made a positive declaration that no disagreement report will be signed.
 The plan of the house leaders on the statehood question for the next congress has been outlined. On the first day of the next session, Repre- sentative Hamilton, chairman of the house committee on territories, will in troduce a statehood bill with provisions like those which have passed the house. He will call his committee together to report the bill. This action will be taken without preliminary hearings Within two weeks, it is expected, the bill will be on the house calendar. A special rule will be forthcoming to put it through without protracted discus sion. It is believed that with the long session before it the bill can be passed in the senate.

RETURN OF THE RUSSIANS
Apparently Giving Way Before the
 Insistent Japanese.

Mukden, March 3.-Ceaseless artiI- lery fire is heard ten miles southward. The roaring of guns of guns is becom- ing more distinct every hour. The Russian losses during the last five days have been heavy. The wounded are streaming through Mukden north ward, the hospital train service being infinitely better than at the time of the battle of the Shakhe river. Great confusion prevails in this city, every means of transport out of Mukden be- ing used. Night attacks are again a feature of the struggle. In one en- gagement on the left flank for hours men fought in the darkness, the Japa- nese using hand grenades with terri ble effect.
 General Rennenkampff's troops ac- quilted themselves brilliantly contest ing the passes to the southeast for three days. They fought continuously, the Japanese pressing them on all sides with heavy odds in favor of the Jap anese. On Thursday night, the corps lost about 1900 men, of which fourteen were officers Over 1000 wounded men have already arrived here.

DESTROYED TIE RECORDS
Another Indictment Found Against
 Ringer Hermann.

Washington, March 3.-Binger Her mann, member of congress from Oregon and former commissioner of the gen eral land office. was indicted by the federal grand jury this afternoon on the charge of destroying public re- cords. The indictment was found on the testimony of certain general land office employees and of the secretary of the interior.
 The substance of the charge is that 4Mr Hermann just previous to his re- signation as commissioner of the gen. eral land office, which was on Feb. 1, 1880, destroyed thirty-five letter press copy-books containing copies of off cial communications written by him as commissioner of the general land office and relating to the business of that bureau. The indictment having been found, on behalf of his client his attorney waived the exemption due q member of congress and asked that bail be fixed. District Attorney Beach suggested $5,00O while MT. Hermann's counsel named S2,5O0 the latter figure being set by the court.
 The indictment alleges specifically that MT. Hermann on the 18th of Jan uary, 1903, was an officer of the Unit ed States, commissioner of the general land office, and that as such officer he was in the custody of all the records, documents, papers and proceedings filed in the general land office, and that among the records were thirty five certain letter press copy books which contained letter press copies of certain official letters concerning the affairs of the general land office and which were required to be kept in copybooks by the usage and custom of the land office for reference and information pertaining to and concerning the bus mess and administration of the office. The indictment recites that a more particular description of the thirty five letter press copy books cannot be given because they are not now in ex- istence.
 The indictment then charges that MT. Hermann did "unlawfully and fraudulently destroy said thirty five letter press copy books and the con- tents of said copy books with intent to impair their usefulness and to pre- judice a due and proper adininistra- tion of the business of said general land office, contrary the form of the statute in such cases made and pro- vided and against the peace of the government"

A BACKWARD MOVEMENT.

St. Petersburg, March 3, 5:30 D. m.- According to the latest information from the front, the battle is now gen. eral and of most desperate charac- ter. The losses are exceedingly heavy on both sides. Although not officially admitted. it is regarded as certain that Kuropatkin is directing his efforts to- ward a withdrawal of his army to Tie Pass. It is now practically a rear guard action, but the task of extri- eating himself is very diAcult The Japanese have not only driven in his left, but a column is already reported to have crossed the Hun river east of Fushun. At the same time the Japa- nese are pressing the Russian center under cover of fire from their siege guns, Kuropatkin is gradually retir- ing before the Japanese advance.
 The efforts of the Japanese to en- velop the Russian right wing was un- successful but it has been forced back almost on line with Mukden. Two Russian divisions were dispatched to head off the wide flanking column ad- vancing from Liao river. towards Sin ninth, thirty miles west of Mukden. but acsording- to advices they arrived
