Caring For Bronze.

The care of bronze ornaments be-
comes sometimes little perplexing.
1t is, however, because of their pre-
vious want Of care. Nothing should
ever be applied to bronze in the way of
preparations. Simple, careful busting
Is all that is needed. To remove the
purple tinge that sometimes comes a
little sweet oil may be gently rubbed
upon the discolored portion; but, as a
rule, the busting will be found to be
sufficient

so doing they not only wrong smaller and less able men-whether wage workers or small producers and traders but force other men of exceptional abilities themselves to do what IS wrong under penalty of falling behind in the keen race for success. There IS need of legislation 10 strive to meet such abuses. At one time or in one place this legislation may take the form of factory laws and employers H. ability laws. Under other conditions 1t may take the form of dealing with the franchises which derive their value from the grant of the representatives or the people. It may be aimed at the manifold abuses, far-reaching in their effects, which spring from over-capl- talization. Or it may be necessary to meet such conditions as those with which I am now dealing and to strive to procure proper supervision and reg ulation by the national government of all great corporations engaged in inter- state commerce or doing an interstate business.
 There are good people who arc afraid of each type of legislation; and much the same kind of argument that is now advanced against the effort to regulate big corporations has been again and again advanced against the effort to secure jroper employers liability laws or proper factory laws with reference to women and children; much the same kind of argument was advanced but five years ago against the franchise tax law enacted in this state while l was governor.
 Of course there is always the danger of abuse if legislation of this type is approached in a hysterical or sentl- mental spirit, or, above all, if it is ap- preached in spirit of envy and hatred toward men of wealth.
 We must not try to go too fast, under penalty of finding that we may be go- ing in the wrong direction; and in any event, we ought always to proceed by evolution and not by revolution. The laws must be conceived and executed in a spirit of sanity and justice, and with exactly as much regard for the rights of the big man as for the rights of the little man-treating big man and little man exactly alike.
 Our ideal must be the effort to com bine all proper freedom for individual effort with some guarantee that the eff fort is not exercised in contravention of the eternal and immutable principles of justice.

He secured the leave and in due time made his appearance at the girls house. He was welcomed warmly. There were so few people passing by the lonely farmhouse that Frank was the hero of 1 the day He was pressed to stay long CT, and there was no secret made of the friendship that had been formed from the top of the caboose. : When Franks leave expired he left the place with a lump in his throat and promised that the letter would be daily one.
 He determined that when he got his promotion he would go back to the house and marry the little girl. She was This little girl" now. All the trainmen concealed that fact and, though he had not spoken love to her, he felt there was bond of sym pathy between them which would one day be Strengthened by the bonds of matrimony.
 Then Frank heard there was a chance of promotion. He was offered job as conductor on the Oregon Short Line and his headquarters were to be in Ogden. He had to break the news by letter. He received an answer con- ! graduating him on the promotion and l concluding with the hope that one day
 he would return to visit the farmhouse. f. Poor Frank-from being one of the kaset natures imaginable, he grew as glum when he started west as if he were going to his execution instead of promotion, When he reached Ogden he
 was the most dejected of mortals. He felt as if he would like to throw up his job and go back on the old run, so long as he could see ''his little grill" just for l one passing moment. He was wander ing about the town in an aiTnless fash | ion when his attention was attracted to "a man building house. '' What are you building that house for?" he asked. 1 For rent was the reply. Do you want it?"' Itrwill be finished in about a week." I I'll take it" said Frank. l Are you marrted?' inquired the builder.
 No but I will ae by the time the house is finished"
 That night Frank sent a letter to "bis little girl in the care of Bill, ith in- structions to throw it off at the farm house.
 A wire soon came to Frank that she was on her way to Ogden and they were married on the day the honse was completed, and they started in housekeeping after he received his pro- motion.

Jenkins is no longer on the Oregon Short line. He is a conductor on Southern Pacific train in this state, and whenever he sees 8 man who is afraid to get married he tells the story of his courtship, and how he sent for the girl even before he hadla house ready to receive her.
 A man. says Jenkins, that goes a. thinking over getting married never gets married at all. There is not good railroad man that stops to fool about the thing. He just goes and gets married and takes the chances of de- railment. But then,- with them love matches, both keep to the rails pretty well. It's only those who are figuring and a-fguring whether they shall take Sal or Mary that get badly spliced and get off the rails. .-.....~
 Now, my wife has never regretted the day that she took that first letter and opened it. and it was tied to a ipece focal, too, From the day mar ried her have had luck, and wouldn't change places with Hartman and be a bachelor again. *

Whenever there is a great con- cert, the performer upon the piano. forte looks for the best instrument that can be, obtained, so as to do justice to his noble art. It is in this connection that we call the at tention of the public to Mir August Fraemcke's playing of the tremen- dous and difficult Lis2t Hungarian FantaSie, with full orchestral ae- compartment, which took place at the Schiller performance a week ago at the; New Haven Opera house before large audience The piano used upon that occasion was again a SteinertOne concert grand, be- cause Mir. Fraemeke has often play ed that special make in his public concerts in New York and Brook lyn, and he desired to again avail himself of the tremendous tonal powers of the Steinert0ne piano. His success was instantaneous, and when the people left the hall they carried with them to their homes the sweet and delightful music evoked from the Steinertone grand. No better proof as to the superior ity of one piano over another can be obtained than when that piano is heard in large hall with an or chestra Of fifty men,. and it still keeps up its characteristics as pianoforte.

A further demonstra- tion of the foregoing claims by the manufacturers is Vthe invitation which is cordially extended to all, buyers or not, to examine and play these instruments at the factory, if accepted.

ALL A MATTER OF LUCK.
Frank England Made Fortune in Horse
Racing.


JERSEY CITY, n. j., Nov. Pit is
doubtful whether there is any other
man in this country who has been as
lucky in betting on horse races as
Frank England, up to five years ago

years ago he worked hard for $3.50 a
day and now he takes life easy, living
on the income of S150,000, which he ac-
cumulated since he began to play the
races. For several years he played
the races with varying success and
when the racing season began this
year he was slightly the loser. On
May %, last ne tried his luck again
with an investment of seventy five
cents. He won and has continued to
win ever since. He is now winner to
the extent of 100000. He has pur-
chased a fine residence in Brooklyn
worth $4,000 and is enjoying life,
travelling with his wife and some rel
atives. He says that mis- betting is
based upon reliable inside information,
that there is nothing crooked about it,
but that he would not state where he
obtained his information.

WASHINGTON WOMEN TO WAGE
CAMPAIGN IN THE STATE
NEXT YEAR.
Will Assist Movement Now Starred IN
Oregon and Then Begin in
Washington.

red-hot equal suffrage campaign
NAV be under way in this state De
fore the close Of next year.
After an enthusiastic and we'll at
tended convention, the washington
Equal Suffrage association adjourned
their annual meeting, held in the LABOR
temple at Seattle. Officers for the
ensuing year were elected and COM
mittees were appointed to take up
special work.
Officers elected were: Honorary
president, Mrs. Homer M. Hill; pres1-
dent, DR.. Fanny Leake-Cummings;
vice president, Mrs. Susan Courier
Ornes: recording secretary Mrs. Sarah
P. Wilcocks; corresponding secretary,
Mrs. E. S. Leckenby; treasurer, Mrs.
f. Palmer Spinning: auditor, Miss
Ida Agnes Baker; member of the ma
tional executive committee, Miss Adel-
la M Parker.
One of the principal subjects before
the convention was the referendum in
Oregon. and the meeting heartily in
dorsed the fight for equal suffrage
which is being waged in that state
states a Seattle report. After that is
accomplished concerted fight Will be
Waged in Washington. The aid of the
national association will be requested
to assist in the work.
One of the most prominent questions
taken up was the subject of the char
tiers of each municipality in Washing
ton and other states. The charter of
each town will be examined, as it is
believed by members of the conven-
ton that close examination will dis
close that women are illegally re-
strained from voting. The charter of
Seattle will have a particularly search
ing examination by lawyers appointed
by the association to look into the
matter.
Marion B. Baxter made this subject
one of the features of her address.
She said in part: L am convinced that
a close examination of the charter of
the city of Seattle would show that
women are illegally restrained from
voting. It would at least disclose some
point whereby concerted effort
would enable the suffragists to obtain
their rights. If 1 were elected mayor
l would-well 1 would make things
hum. I might accept the governors
chair, or, if l was offered the appoint
ment of United States senator l would
do my best to fill it honestly and well.
There is no reason why the
women of the country should hot fill
any or all of the Legislative positions.

some cases even more sO.'
