The Billboard Campaign.

The moment a man is nominated for
an office he is at once seized with the
idea that the town is missing its meals
waiting for a chance to look at his
face, and he proceeds to plaster 1t up

unpre-empted bit of landscape that he
can find.
1t makes no difference if he has a
face 50 homely that the looking glass
hates to tell him the truth about 1t, he
still rushes madly on with his paste
pot outraging art and making the
waste places look like crazy quilt.
We do not know that the posters do
any particular harm. we never heard
of any one leaving his happy home on
account Of them, and II seems to do
the candidate lots of good personally,
and perhaps on the whole 1t doesn't
lose him many votes.

The English football game is slight
ly different from the game as it is seen
in America, according to George AIDE,
who in his new book called In Past
ures New" tells of game he attended
in London, accompanied by his friend,
Mr.. Peasley of Iowa:
The prevailing spirit of solemnity
worried Mr.. Peasley. He spoke to q
native standing alongside him and ask
ed: What's the matter with you folks
over here? Don't you know how to
back up a team? Where are all your
flags and ribbons, your tally-hos and
tin horns? Is this a football game or
funeral?"
why should one wear ribbons at a
football game?" asked the English
nan.
Might as we'll put little ginger
into the exercise" suggested Mr.. Peas
ley DO you sing during the game?"
Heavens. no. Why should one sing
during a football game?"
You ought to go to a game in Iowa
city We sing till we are black in the
facial about Eat EN- up. boys Kill
en- in their tracks and Buck through
the line What's the use of coming TO
a game if you stand around all after
noon and don't take part? Have you
got any yells?"
What are those?"
Can you beat that?" asked Mr.. Peas
ley, turning to US "A football game
without any yells."
Evidently some good plays were be-
ing made, says Mr.. AIDE, for occa-
sionally low, growing sound-a con
certed murmur would rise from the
multitude along the side lines"
What's the meaning of that sound
they are making?" asked Mr.. Peasley
| turning to the native alongside of him
They are cheering" was the reply.
They are what?"
Cheering"
Great Scott! Do you call that cheer
ing? At home, when we want to en-
courage the boys, we get up on ouI
hind legs and make noise that you
can hear in the next township"
I'VE could not blame our companion
for being disappointed over the cheer
| ing" says Mr.. AIDE. An English cheer
is not the ear-sps:t:ing demoniaca
shrek such as as American patriot lets
out when he hears from another batch
of precincts. The Englist cheer is
simply loud grunt, or a sort of gutter

English crowd cheers the sound is sim

having heard the cheering one can un-
derstand the meaning of a passage il

SPLIT OF CUBAN LIBERALS
Lane of Cleavage Is Apparently the
Color Line, Negroes Being
for Cuba Libre."

Havana, Nov. H. A serious split
has occurred in the ranks of the Liberal
party, due to the belief of the more
radican element, largely composed of
negroes, that Alfredo Zayas is too
friendly with the United States, even
TO the extent of secretly favoring an
nexation of the island by the United
States. The leader of the radical fac
ton, Jose Miguel Gomez, is now a can
didate for the presidency, and is be-
lieved to have the support of many
liberals who formerly regarded Zayas
as the only logical candidate OF the
party by virtue of his services in or
ganizing the recent revolution and OBJ
tanning the support of the United
States peace commissioners
Gomez is reputed to have the sup
port of Juan Gualberto Gomez, VINO is
said to control the party in the prov
ince of Santiago, and Morua Delgado,
a negro who is all powerful with AIS
race in Havana province Generals
Asbert and Pine Guerra, and Colonel
Julian Betancourt apparently are I'M

KILLED BY HIS PET BUCK
Wealthy New Jerseyman Gored and
Trampled to Death in His
Deer Preserve.

New York Nov. 12-It has been def
initely established at Montclair, n. j.,
that a pet buck deer killed Herbert
Bradley, a wealthy -four exporter
whose body was found Saturday night
on the preserves at his home there.
Deputy County Physician Simmons, of
Orange, found that Bradley's death
was due primarily to the deer ripping
open an artery in his hip. The horns
of the buck, the largest one belonging
to Bradley and his special pride, were
found to be covered with blood. The
animal also attacked him with his
hoofs.
Bradley returned Saturday from a
business trip to the west, and was told
that great deal of shooting by hunt
ers was going on in the woods near his
estate. He started out to see if any
hunters had broken into his grounds,
and it was while investigating this that
the buck killed him.

Then the policemen and reporters
packed a patrol wagon, taking with
them the police siege gun of heavy
caliber and hurried to the edge of

Humor Qno Philosophy
BY DUNCAN N. SMITH
JUST FOR EFFECT.

The man who kicks about the price
He pays for wifle's hat,
Who says 1t keeps him on the edge
And other things like that.
May never pay a single bill
For things she calls her own,
And she may be supporting him
II all the facts were known.
It's not the man who stands around
And kicks about the price
Who brings a bonnet home each nigh4
Or something just as nice.
Because the fellow who can buy
His wife the very best,
He brags about it all the time
Until you cannot rest.
The man who makes the greatest roar
About the big expense,
He slips round to the store and buys
Her one for ninety pence.
And If tho season after that
She wants a new headgear
He let's her know she'll have to wear
The one he bought last year.
It's not the man who chews the rag
About the cost of things
Who buys n store out every day
And home the contents brings
He salts his little roll away
And tries to get ahead
That others may have ample funds
To spend when he is dead.
