Mr. CHARLES A. Gardiner. an emi-
nent New York LAWYER, seems to think
that the United States has ehreted
upon "a career of executive expa D..
sion," led by a president supported at
the d. lis bv ian overwhelming en-
riorsement." If such he true serious
situation now confrnnts the coun'rs.
Mr.. Gardiner also thinks that the
president is "a majestic constitutional

Microscopic Detective
Ehrenberg, prince of microscopes
some years ago was employed by the
Prussian government to investigate q
case of smuggling. A cask had been
opened, valuables extracted. and the
case repacked and shipped onward to its
destination. The only clew to the Grim
mails was that the unpacking must have
been done at some of the customs houses
through which the goods had passed. TIC
all appearances the microscope had
hopeless task. Ehrenberg took some OF
the sand which had been used in repack-
ing, placed 1t under the microscope

there on the sand lay peculiar speci-

 Town House Modest.
 The Bacon town house, at the northeast corner of Park avenue and Thirty-fourth street fairly indexes the modest character oe the owner. Embedded in vines and having a densely shrubbed lawn 1t Is in appearance more of a residence of a suc- cessful artist than of a millionaire finan- cier. Perhaps the surprise occasioned in banking circles by his appointment is due more to the fact that the new assistant secretary of state has never dabbled in law or in politics, city state or national. His business address Is still given as g Wall street, the otnce or J. r. Morgan & Co.,, and, although he has retired from active business. MT. Bacon Is a director in the United States Steel corporation, the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, Erie, Hooking Valley.

Fulton Navigation company, Manhattan Trust company, Northern Se- curities company and other major cor poratlons.

Cat Is Fond of Hunting.

From the Springfield Republican.
 The firemen at the East street engine house have black cat which Is remark able for several things. It possesses six toes on each foot and during the past year 1t has had about two score and ten kittens which have all had the same number of digits.
 The cat also has become follower of the hunting game in more ways than the average feline has aspired to. It has an excellent record for hunting rats and mice that can be found about the prem

 brings down any game the cat Is there to claim the quarry.
 It is said that the animal VIII follow
 the person in question for miles in order
 to get the game. and 1t cannot be de- ceved for as soon as one of the fire
 men in the house starts out with a gun the cat is always a faithful follower. Yesterday one of these trips was taken with some success, and the cat seemed

Not to Meadows This Year.

General Manager E. M. Heigho
of the P. & I. N. Ry. was at the
State House Monday. The object
of his visit was to gain information
relative to the valleys resources
and volume of business. He is US
ing crutches, having sprained both
ankles. while assisting to put out a
fire in Weiser recently, and this
makes travelling difficult and pain
full or he would probably have gone
down the valley for additional IN
formation. The Editor learned IN
conversation with Mr.. Heigho that
it is not likely the road will be
built to Meadows this fall, owing
to the late start and so many de-
tails having to be fixed up. How
ever, all the work possible will
be accomplished before bad wealth
er sets in, and the management
will be in shape to go ahead with
the work early next year. The
right of way has recently been Sc
cured for several miles north of
Council and cash paid for the same.
Cash down is being paid for every
thing, which is decided improve
ment over the old system under
which the line was built and run.

on policies placed in your own COM
pany on your own life?"
First, because / think n is the
general custom that has always ex-
isted" said Mr.. Tarbell. II think,
generally speaking, that professional
men attend one another and they make
less charge than they do to other eli.
ents. think it is a general custom
that applies TO all business, fire in
surance, life insurance, professional
business and merchandising.
DO you mean to imply that the bus

mot by any means" replied Mr..
Tarben. But the commissions are
paid to cover the expense of bringing
in business, and where an officer takes
out insurance there is no expense on
the part of the company in getting
business, and all the employees OF the
sociey, ever since I have been there.
have been privileged to do business
and receive an employees compensa-
tion."
Mr.. TarbelI explained that he did
not consider the taking OF commits!
sions on his own insurance case OF
rebating. In his testimony previously,
Mr., TarbelI said that he had made a
decided fight against the rebating
prad ice among agents. He insisted
that he did not consider his case
parallel with that of agents.
Mr.. Tarbell reviewed at length the
life insurance business and It's evils,
seeming to make the conclusion thai
most of The dishonesty on the part q
the life insurance officials was due To
the temptation furnished by the large
surplus funds. He pointed out tina
the life insurance business In the
country had increased 10000 per cent
since 1856 and said d wac small won
der that a "house- cleaning" in life
insurance affairs was due at this
time. He said he hoped the house
cleaning would be complete and tn"
gully punished, no matter how high
their position.
In his earlier testimony Mr. Tarbell
made interesting disclosures Of bust
ness trips around the country, OF
groups of men, most Of them attacie J
10 the society, and sometimes his
wife son and daughter. Transporta'
