NURSES REGISTRY.

A question that has arisen among the
committee is in regard to the applica-
ton of graduate nurses whose diplomas
entitle them to membership, but upon
whose application the doctors have no
authority to act because of the fact that
they are not personally familiar with the
work of several nurses who have been

VenSzueIas Dictator is Fond
Of Dancing and is H.
teRSGy Vain
BELIEVES FIRMLY THAT He
IS A MAN OF DESTINY
Knows Nothing of Higher Learning,
But His Power Over His Raga-
muffin Country Is Absolute.
How He Cissipates.

A short, stocky man. black of beard,
and thick of neck. with protuberanees be-
meath his eyes and a weary anguor in his
movements; a man whose chief delight is
dancing, who feasts on sweetmeats when
he Is not smoking cigarettes or chewing
aromatic gum-that is Castro, the terrible,
the titular president. but actual dictator
of Venezuela. who threatens that he will
land an army at New Orleans and lay
waste to the fruitful valley of the Mis-
slssippi.
And Castro has subimest confidence
that he would be able to make good his
fear-inspirng threat He says he Is
man Of destiny; compares himself to Ma
poleon, but AYERS that he will avoid the
mistakes that led to Napoleons fall. Cas-
tro actually looks upon the little raga-
muffin republic over which he holds auto
cratic sway as one of the worlds great
powers. He modestly asserts that his
army and navy are equal in prowess to
those of any other nation, and insists that
he soon would dispose of all his enemies,
could he persuade them to fight him one
by one. But, says Castro, the nations of
the world are Jealous and fearful of him;
so they hunt in pack when so valiant
foe as Venezuela appears menacingly on
the political horizon.
1t is said that Castro once was a brigand
chief 1t is certain that he was a soldier
of fortune and a political adventurer. The
border lands of Latin America are not
well defined and Castro himself does not
quite know whether he is a native of Ven
ezuela or of Colombia Even after he at
tanned to manhood he was in doubt for
a time as to which republic he could
most proftably bear allegiance. On an
evil day the die was cast, and Venezuela
gained a president and lost her liberties.
castro's DESTINY"
The destiny of which Castro talks
does not lack definite shape and FORM lie
thinks he has been exalted to power for
the express purpose of uniting all the
Latin-Ameriean states into one great re-
public, with himself at its head, which
shall outrival the great republic of the
north But Castro is no longer man
oil action. He appears to have forgotten
the role of fearless soldier and aggressive
politician. He dreams dreams of battles
and of conquest. but his only campaigns
are on the dancing floor. and the only
conquests he essays are against the heart
of some blooming matron or pretty maid
who may have caught his fleeing fancy.
Castros passion for dancing amounts
almost to a mania. Whenever he is in
reach of a soft guitar or persuasive man
dolin, he never fails to pass the shining
hours al the 'baile'' as the dance is called
in the Latin countries. Every night there
Is dance at the residence of the Presi-
dentand at least once a month a grand
ball at the official palace. The President
wants all the pretty and youthful matrons
and maidens as his partners, and he is in
deed an indisereet diplomat or visitor who
seeks to rival the chief executive.

SENATOR HARTMAN VOTED FOR
THE DOG TAX.

Senator Hartman says he was absent
when the Dog law first passed, but did
vote for the Halsey amendment. This
is correct But at the next session
the original bill was amended by a
House bill, making it more drastic,
and the present dog law we now have,
which is found on page 60 Acts 1902
"a, and was voted for by Senator
Hartman when it passed. See Senate
Journal pages 1S9 and 21s session

hereafter hold their peace about dog

ticket Senator Hartman dog law adj

JUDGE LEWIS ADDRESS.

The announcement that Judge
Lewis, Republican candidate for Gov
ernor, was 10 speak ia Tazewell, was
received with no small degree of pleas
ure. The gentleman's reputation, as a
popular. dignified, clean man had pre-
coded him, and Democrats and Re
publicans alike, went to hear his adj
dress with the feeling that they would
hear a fine speech, out OF the ordinary
political, stump-speech order a manly,
clear discussion of state and COVER
mental questions in which all the peo-
pie are Interested. Those OF our
citizens who had the pleasure Of meet
ing Mr.. Lewis socially were still FUR
ther confirmed in the belief that his adj
dress would be of high order in every
way. But, candor compels the state

expect from candidate for Governor,
and gentleman OF Judge Lewis repu-

rose OF this article TO disparage or
misrepresent Judge Lewis In any PAL
ticular, but only TO fairly state, as
many present on the occasion
know, that the address did not measure
up TO the dignity of the occasion. The
speaker dealt, almost exclusively, with
the old charge, made for years, of
Democratic fraud at the ballot box,
and charges OF mismanagement OF the
States affairs. The audience which
Judge Lewis addressed, for the most
part, at least, had heard that old.
thread bare cry Of fraud" SO long
that it faild TO create any enthusiasm
whatever. Judge Lewis charges OF
fraud and mismanagement. etc, were
not made, let it be said, in bitter
manner, but this very fact robbed the
address Of the snap and enthusiasm
which characterizes the average p6liti
cal speech. Judge Lewis is fin,
man, no doubt, but he is not a cam
paigner or vote getter, judging from
his speech here on Saturday Nc
doubt he would make good Gov

ment recently made to the effect that
the Republican party of today is 1.-The

says: "Our contemporary is mistaken.
The Republican party in Virginia to-
day Is not the same old party and the
incubation OF that idea is calculated TO
lull the Democracy into IA dangerous

into the Republican party" 1t would
be bad thing for the Democracy to
be "lulled," but nevertheless, here are
