r San Francisco.

San Francisco, Sept. 15.-ArthT Raj
ston, recently young business man of
Boston, has ended month of riotous
living in this city BY committing suicide

his friend and companion, which said
in part:
9There is nothing left for me but to
pass out. Good-by. ] am glad we

TRAGIC EXPOSE
Elk Senator Bunkers Tells All About

Boodling.
Sacramento, Cal. Sept. 1s.--Brought
from his prison cell to confront his al
legged associate in the boodling combine
Of last winter, Harry Bunkers, former
state senator from San Francisco, has
made complete confession on the wit
ness stand in Judge Harris court room,
where the trial of Z. }. Emmons, one
Of the state senators indicted by the
grand jury, was in progress
From the moment of his entry into
the court room until he left it, pale
and perspiring, three hours later, Bunk
er was the central figure in one Of the
most dramatic exposures in criminal
trials Of this state. He left nothing
untold, and in his eagerness to unbosom
himself, he forestalled the objections
Of the defense with statements relating
to the motives and actions Of the four
disgraced legislators. Much of this was
stricken from the record. He detailed
the plan Of campaign, which, he says,
was one whereby the building and loan
associations of the state were to be
aheld up and compelled to pay for pro-
lection.
He told also Of receiving money, stat
ing that Joseph Johnson had dropped
his roll Of $3.50 in his pocket as he
stood in the street, just as Jordan said
he did, and had said that Emmons re-
ceiyed his share, but two minutes be-
fore. Lastly, he told Of the terror and
fright that followed the exposure in the
senate, the last conference held in En-.
mons room over the disposal Of the
marked bills, and Of suggestions that
were made to clear themselves d
guilt.

Liquor Patent Medicines to Come Under
Rectifying.


Washington, d. G., Sept. 1.-THE
commissioner Of internal revenue yes
terday rendered a decision that will
seriously affect number Of patent
medicines composed largely Of distilled
liquors.
He has reversed ruling Of his de-
partment made many years ago, and
now decides that the manufacturers Of
these medicines must take out licenses
as rectifers and liquor dealers and that
druggists and others handling them will
have to pay the usual retail liquor
dealers license.
He authorizes collectors to impose the
special tax upon manufacturers Of ey-
cry compound composed of distilled
spirits, even though drugs are declared
to have been added thereto, "when their
presence is not discoyerable by chemi-
cal analysis Of it is found that the
quantity Of drugs in the preparation
IS so small as to have no appreciable
effect upon the liquor"

NORWAY,S WINTER FUN.

Ske0s Furnish Not Only Sport but
Necessary Means of Travel.
1t Is during the Norwegian winter
that the most characteristic sports in
that country hold sway. When the
fiords are frozen after the snow has
fallen, the water is covered with the
bright, shining ice, and, like the gulls
during the summer, the Norwegian
boys glide about on their skates where,
in July and August, they had crossed
In sailing boats. But when the SNOW
covers mountain, valley, and ford
many feet deep, snow shoeing, or ski
Looming, as It is called In Norway, be-
comes universal, not merely as a
sport, but also as necessary way Of
travelling.
The skees are made Of wood, gener-
ally of ash. It is the most suitable
wood for the purpose, but they can
also be made out of pine, or birch, or
of almost any wood In which the grain
runs straight, and which is not too
knotted. But woods like ash, which
is both hard and flexible, are admira-
bly, adapted for skee-making. The
skees are some ten feet long and about
four inches broad, and taper up in
front in q graceful curve. A very slight
groove about half an inch wide runs
all along the middle Of the skee from
front to back, giving tendency to
keep It steady in one direction, and TO
prevent 1t, to some extent, from slid
ing to one side. About an inch back
of the middle Of the skee, loop il
made out of twisted willow, or, in re-
cent years, frequently out of leather
covered bamboo, forming a firm but
flexible support for the foot about two
inches back Of the toe. Another loop
of leauher covered bamboo runs from
the base of the loop for the toes and
all around the heel, while one strap
combines the two sides Of this loop un-
der the foot. The skee-runner then
fanishes tho fastening by buckling 4
strap over his instep.
Thls peculiar arrangement Of loops
and straps allows the runner to move
his he'd IN q vertical direction 50 far
that he could, although with effort.

whether certain privileges ana e4-
emptions appertaining to mature years
afford adequate compensation for the
loss Of youths energy and capacity for
enjoyment is a matter that will proba-
bly, be viewed differently by different
people. It il likely, however, that
most Of those on the shady side OF 40
would be glad enough to surrender
good part of their experience and wis
dom in exchange for the vivacity and
activity Of Fl. There is something to
be said for the blessings Of maturity,
nevertheless. Taking the merely ply
steal phase Of the matter, for instance.
we find that those past middle age are
largely exempt from certain of the
most dangerous and destructive dis
eases. Typhoid fever il. the scourge
Of the young and comparatively rarely
attacks people Of mature years. The
same things may be said of appendi-
citis, while "the great white plague"
pulmonary tuberculosis, or consump-
tion-fnds three-fourths of its victims
among those below 30 years of age.
There are other diseases In which, to
a greater or less extent, youtr suffers
heavily as compared with maturity.
Coming to the sentimental side of the
case, we may admit that youth has the
greater capacity for enjoyment be-
cause the heyday in the blood is tame
when middle age is reached: yet, as
has been intimated, experience and
worldly wisdom-to say nothing OF un-
worldly wisdom-go far to compensate
the sober and sedate oldster for the
loss of his youthful zest and keenness.
Maturity and even old age have their
advantages in other ways. It is an
yet the wisdom of that cry is coming
to be doubted. Mere youthful energy
does not count for everything, as EN-
ployers and corporations which have
drawn the age line are beginning to
discover. 1t is becoming more and
more evident that no amount of ma
tive ability will take the place of that
good judgment which is based upon
actual experience and that the policy
Of barring out men because Of their
age results also in barring out quail
ties which younger men cannot, in the
nature of things, possess. Young men
for action, old men for counsel, is an
adage which is as ancient as it Is well
founded. The world has not yet evolv-
ed men who with the vigor and vivac-
ity of youth combine the judgment
and experience Of maturer years. I'm
til such a combination shall have been
attained there is going to be room even
in the busiest of mundane activities
for him who has learned his lesson in
the school of experience, even though
his hair has turned gray while he was
going to school. In short, maturity
and earlier old age still have a place in
human affairs both practical and senti-
mental. Even the last stage Of all, spe-
Gifted by the pessimistic jacques, is
neither useless nor depressing, since it
is-or it should be-accompanied by
love, honor, obedience, troops of friends
the concomitants Of honorable old
age. There is room in the world for
gray hairs and it will be barren sort
of world when there is not.
