How Tom JOHNSON KNEw.-Tom L.
Johnson. multi-millionaire, free trad
er, mayor Of Cleveland and former
congressman. who was In Philadel-
phia on Wednesday, and took oc-
casion to congratulate Mayor Weaver
on his campaign for good govern
ment, Is one Of the most picturesque
characters in the political world. and
has frequently Jared his opponents
in the most unexpected manner.
There is a good story told Of the
strenuous Ohioan's characteristic OF
taking any advantages that might be
presented, while at the same time
vigorously opposing the conditions
that make them possible.
1t was while he was In congress
and waging vigorous warfare against
the trusts. There were those OF his
colleagues on the other side who did
not agree with him, and wearying
OF the repeated demands for legisla-
ton, the late DR.. Dingley Of Maine'
the author OF the war revenue bill,
made a speech in which he said
plumply that the clamor against the
trusts was all for effect and that as
a matter of fact there was no such
thing as a trust in existence.
Mr.. Johnson was greatly interested.
How about the steel rail trust?"
he demanded.
There is no such thing as a steel
rail trust" replied Mr. Dingley, "and
never was"
WELL" said Mr.. Johnson, cheerful
ly, there is a steel rail trust, and I
am president Of it."
Mr.. Dingley sat down without an
other word.-Philadelphia Telegraph.

A DIFFICULT PRoPosITIoN.-Two
Irishmen were crossing a bog when
one Of them fell into a mudhole says
Harper's. His companion, running to
a nearby farm house, asked the loan

What do you want 1t for?" asked
the farmer.
Sure. Mike is stuck In the bog and

swer.

WHY HIS ARDoR WANED-On Fri
day evening two lovers were seated
on camp stools. placed in as quiet
and romantic a corner as the after
deck Of a Coney Island steamboat af-
fords, says the New York Press. AS
the boat passed Fort Hamilton an
opening in the trees disclosed a
pretty, snug little house, partly
covered with vines, and the young
man said:
wouldn't 1t be fine to have a lit
tie cottage like that, with all the
front covered with ivy and honey
suckle and roses?"
"oh, wouldn't it," exclaimed the
girl joyfully.
'And when a fellow comes home
tired from business to have a nice
little wife to meet him at the door
with a"
"Y-e-e-s!"
"And then the winter nights, the
fire burning brightly in the cozy par
lor, and you'll mean a wife-at the
piano playing in the cleaning"
"I think 1t would be just too sweet
for anything"
"And then"
But just then a careworn woman
with bawling twins in her arms
tottered by them. and he changed the
subject.

COUNTRY Boy No FooL.-A boy sat on
a rail fence enclosing a cornfield. A
city chap passed by, and said:
Your corn looks kind of yellow,
bub."
Yep, that's the kind we planted"
replied the bub.
1T don't look like you will get more
than a half CROP" said the city boy.
Nope. we don't expect to; the land
lord gets the other half" retorted the
youngster.
The stranger hesitated a moment and
then ventured:
You are not very far from a fool
are you, my boy?"
Nope, not more'n ten feet" said the
boy, and the city chap moved on.-Ex-

local Irish character to the bartender
Of a Topeka drink emporium the
other afternoon, handing the man in
the white apron a quarter.

yes you do, I remember now. 1t was

suddenly added.

the Irishman. II could have saved

instance, what in your opinion is the
best way to fight the beef trust?" ask
ed one conversationalist in the Cleve-
land Plain-Dealer
THE beef trust is nothing to me, sir.

"Eh? Aren't you interested? Have

stuck to the room where I had parted

GASTON.

Gastonia Gazetts, August %: After
services at the Methodist church in
Gastonia Sunday night, June 25, five
young people quietly entered the
pastors study. They were Messrs.
Lee and Kelly Lewis. Mr.. Andy Arm
strong. and Misses May and Alice
Jenkins of Lowell The pastor. Rev.
E. L. Balm, was apprised Of their
mission and in few moments the
party returned, but not as they had
gone in; for Mr.. Kelly Lewis and
Miss May Jenkins had become hus-
band and wife under the laws of
North Carolina The bride returned
to the home of her father, Mr.. w.
A. Jenkins. The groom, a son of
Mr.. E. P. Lewis, went about his daily
duties as usual. All who knew of 1t
kept the secret well. Only few
days ago did the marriage become
known. Mr.. Lewis took his bride
to his fathers home last Sunday. and
about the first of September they Will
go to keeping house in Gastonia. 1t
was a surprise marriage that was
most skillfully engineered. IA new
4OO-pound bell was swung in the
tower of the new Lutheran church at
Dallas Friday morning. The bell was
an unsolicited surprise gift from Mr..
Daniel Rhyme of Lincolnton. After
years of hopeless suffering DR.. Benja-
min Franklin Douglass died at his
home in Gastonia last Friday night.
He was stricken With paralysis nine
years ago. He vas at that time an
active physician with fine practice
in Iredell county. Possessed of an
iron constitution, he did not yield to
any ordinary sickness. and as long
as he could he resisted the steady en-
croachment of paralysis upon his vi
tai powers. When his family moved
to Gastonia five OF six years ago, he

The trouble with Mr.. Booker T.
Washington's work Is that he Is ST.

something equally dangerous, namely
he is attempting to build nation In

this event he Is storing dynamite be-

Mr.. Washington Is not training ne

white man can direct or control him.
He Is not training his students to be
servants and come at the beck and call
of any man. He Is training them all
to be masters of men. to be independ-

dustries, plant their own fields, buy and
sell their own goods, and In every
shape and form destroy the last vestige
of dependence on the white man for
anything.

do not say that 1t Is not noble. / only

president Roosevelt has changed his
mind about the appointment OF a public
printer. He had intended to appoint a
man within a few weeks, but since rea m
Ing that decision he has had a talk
with Chairman Lands. of the House
Committee on Printing, and through thar
talk ha has decided to hold the whole
matter inUabeyance until the Joint Con-
Congressional Committee on Printing in
yestlgates the conduct Of the office and
MAKES recommendations In accordance
With their findings. This may mean that.
although the President had fully decided
TO appoint an outside man, he may change
bis programme and appoint Ricketts, ar
ter all. The President had told Senator
Platt that he would not appoint Rick
