Tried in Cleveland.
Cleveland, o., March Mrs. Chad
wick declared during the day that her
attorneys would apply for change of
venue in connection with her trial in
the United States district court. She
said the action would be taken on the
ground that District Attorney Sulli-
van, who will prosecute her case If
tried here, is related to Judge Tayler
and that, owing to the strong feeling
existing against her in this city, a
fair and unprecedented trial could not
be secured.

Chicago, March 1.-The body OF an
unidentified woman was found late at
night lying on the sidewalk in front of
5529 Monroe avenue, in the aristocratic
section OF Hyde Park. She had I'M
questionably been murdered by re-
volver bullet fired into her head be-
hind the right ear, but SO far the po-

shot, and hurrying out, found the body
of the woman lying on the walk.

of the world is set back by the war
between these two great nations. The
president accordingly urges the Rus

only for their own sakes but in the in
terest OF the whole civilized world, 10
open direct negotiations for peace with
one another.
"The president suggests that these

"While the president does not feel
that any intermediary should be called
in in respect to the peace negotiations
themselves he is entirely willing to do
what he properly can if the two pow
ers concerned feel that his services will

But if even these prelminaries can be

London. June 12.-European and
British journal editorssound a paeOn OF
praise for President Roosevelt and his
diplomacy Paris editors only show
a little disappointment that France
does not also occupy the center of the
stage. German editors are hopeful OF
peace: so are those at Paris. At Toxic
there are hopes. but the papers say that
Japan's position must be guaranteed.
At Vienna the president is a hero, and
also at Rome. Here the editors are di-
vided. Some OF them are skeptical OF
the possibility Of peace others hopeful,
the latter declaring that Russia must
have had a hint Of what Japan would
offer or she would not have agreed 10
negotiate. At st. Petersburg the edi-
tors are doubtful of peaceful results.

under such conditions belongs to pos
terity. 1t will clearly be understood
that solemn duties and grave respon-
sibilities rested upon the Michigan
legislatures of 1861, '65 and '65, and it
can be truthfully said that every re-
quirement of the national administra-

duty of the state TO the soldiers in
the field and their families at home
was faithfully and conscientiously
provided for. The regular Legislative
work of the sessions was done with
out unusual excitement, and no charges
of corruption, or the improper use of
money to influence legislation, has,
to my knowledge, ever been made.
Perhaps it is not too much to say
that the loyal ma jority of those legis-
lative bodies was mainly composed
of such men as Doctor Holland so
gra phically described and the times
demanded:

Success.

Everything comes to him who waits,
If, in the meantime, he learns the gaits,
And works and labors to train his hand
And shows he has courage and grit and
sand,
And is willing to do what he can or
must,
In himself, if need be, alone to trust,
For the land that is called Success"
A man swung an ak and a woman toiled
Al washtub, where her fingers boiled
Till her skin was red and her nails were
white,
She labored because, when the day turn
ed night,
She knew that her babes must be cloth
ed and fed,
Till rest came with sorrows and peace
came with bed,
In the land that is called Success"
Now a croaker sneered, you'll never do,
For the crowns are won by the lofty
few,
And their life's ease comes by the toll
er's pain,
While workers like you have little to
gain;
Your place is to act as another's tool,
For genius directs, and not fool,
The car that is called Success. y"
But the two toiled on and their laugh
rang clear,
For naught came to worry and little to
fear;
"For turn we not Bullets and sneers to
gain,
As work brings a smile where others see
pain?"
And, lest men should wonder why this
should be,
1t was love which helped them the path
to see
To the land that is called Success"

The Meanest Man,

A well-to-do Chicago real estate own
er came into a hardware store in that
city and asked the proprietor for a
pound of nails. The small package
was made up and the price "a nickel,
handed to the merchant, when the
customer asked If the purchase could
be sent to his house, which was in a
distant part of the city. The merchant
assented, and calling a boy, handed
him the parcel with dime and said:
Here, Johnny, take this parcel out to
Mr.. Blanks house" What" said the
customer, ARE you going to give the
boy a dime to take the parcel out?'
"Why, certainly said the merchant;
II wouldn't think of asking him to go
so far for nothing" WELL" said the
meanest man in Chicago, IF you would
just as soon give me my nickel l will
take it out myself and you'll save five
cents"

To Cure a Suckinu Cow.

A writer in an unidentified exchange
says: "As all dairymen know, there
is probably no greater nuisance on
dairy farm than a cow or heifer adj
dicted to the habit of sucking herself
and other animals in the herd. 1t is
not only the loss of the milk that is
sustained, but it would seem that one
such animal would induce others to
contract the habit. We have had our
share of trouble with heifers sucking
themselves and others of the dairy
herd. The fact of our having trouble
in this respect has perhaps been for
the BEST since in endeavoring to cope
with it we have finally been enabled
to hit upon very practical means of
breaking the habit in every instance.
The method is so simple and easy of
application as to put in the shade a
number of devices on the market, and
what is better, it is entirely satisfac-
tory Proceed this way, and you will
have fixed for good the most persist.
ent sucker on the farm. Insert in the
sucking neifer's nose an ordinary bull
ring. Just before inserting the ring,
slip on it two common iron harness
rings-of course, the harness rings
are to suspend loosely after the bull
| ring has been inserted. This is the
trick of it. BY adding more than one
loose ring, the animal can in no way
prevent them from dropping in the
mouth when it attempts to suck. Brass
bull rings can be purchased in almost
any hardware store for twenty-five
cents each, and the common iron har-
ness rings cost but a few cents per
IdOZan."
