This editorial paragraph from demo-
cratic paper, the Red Wing News, is sug-
gestive Of the era Of good feeling into
which the country has emerged:
Bowen Is explaining to Roosevelt so
much of the dirty mess in Venezuela as
is explicable and the extent to which our
government has been procured to forward
the villainies Of the asphalt trust. The
entire country has confidence that in such
a matter Roosevelt will hew to the line.
He will not stand for a shadow Of cor
rupt influence in the state department.

SIR WALTER RALEIGH DEPRIVED
OF SOME OF HIS HONORS.-Sir Walter
Raleigh, after all, did not Introduce to-
bacco into England, and there is grave
doubt whether his servant ever doused
him with pail of water, seeing him
smoking his pipe and thinking him afire.
Thus are our cherished legends destroyed!
The witnesses who add their testimony
to the above effect are M. F. and B. Mem.
Mansfield In an attractive work of two
little volumes called Romantic Ireland.
The book is one Of those books of travel
that give the reader very considerable
measure Of what he would get If he did
the travelling himself, and in telling OF
Youghal tells Of Raleigh's residence there.
It was there, too, say the authors OF the
book, that the potato first took root IN
Irish SOIL We infer, from the fact that
no mention is made Of such thing, that
no monument has yet been erected to
mark the spot where the first potato grew
in Ireland. Surely, such monument
ought to be set up. So
The little volumes in hand are full OF
very readable notes about Ireland, and
these are illuminated with pictures from
sketches by Blanche McManus Mansfield

that he had been on a trip west. 1t was

"Yes," said AIDE, about as we'll as

came under the notice OF Sir William
Hooker. the well known bOtanist, and
through his influence was appointed
collector OF rare plants TO The IIorti-

society I'm all parts Of the world and
wa. extraordinarily successful In his
finds. IT was he who discovered lu-
pins, eschschollZias and godctins az
well as many magnificent varieties or
pine trees, including the one bearing
his name. But when quite young
man he met n tragic fate while plant
hunting He was i'm the Sandwich
isles. and there the natives dig deep
pits TO catch wild animals, covering
them over with branches and grass to
conceal their openings. ON TO one OF
these treachcrOus pits Douglas walked
one day when alone and was at once
prccipitnted TO the bottom. No help
was at hand. and he was dcvOured by
wild beast which was also impris-
