WHY OHIO is PROUD.

Not much is heard of Ohio as a
corn state, but only seven out of the
other Al beat it in the size of the crop.
The average population of the coun-
ties of Ohio is about $4,000, but of the
So only 20 or Il exceed that limit.
There are more men fit for mill
tary duty in Ohio than fought at Muk-
den, in the Japanese and Russian
armies combined.
If the people of Ohio stood side by
side, with outstretched arms, touching
finger tips, the line would reach from
Boston to San Francisco, with large
margin left.
The first settlements in Ohio were
made in the southeastern part of the
state, but now that section is less pop
ulous than almost any other. 1t con-
tains no great city.
No precious metals have ever been
mined in Ohio, but the value Of the
coal and iron dug out of the Ohio hills
every year exceeds that of the gold
of Colorado or California.
Only one state-Illinois-w is
younger than Ohio is more populous,
Illinois is much larger in area. No
state later in date of settlement has
moro inhabitants in proportion to its

since our marriageD is lying on the
writing table in the sunshine.
Thirteen years ago he gave me a
heart-a little simple gold thing-and
to-day he gives me yet another
But this one is set with diamonds,
diamonds that shine with emblematical
fires of tlawless purity.
1t is wonderfully sweet that my
birthday gift shall still be a heart-at
thirty!
Five years ago feared the mirror,
but to-day l sit before it bravely, and
without a pain.
This morning Dolf woke me with a
kiss.
Wake up, my birthday wife," he
whispered, standing tall, bronzed and
tweed-clad by the bedside.
For a moment could not quite rea-
lie things, but then suddenly remem-
bered which birthday this was.
''Dolf Dolf!" l murmured, with my
face buried in his neck Chat dear
brown bit between his nearly curling
hair and collar), II am thirty to-
day!"
Thirty? And we were married just
after you were twenty-five! Well, thank
Cod only four years of our life to-
gether have gone by so far, sweet
heart!"
Dolf never mentions the old love-
story, of which he knows nothing
(not even name, nor an incidelD eX-
cept that ] was-jilted! But some
times when l look up suddenly and see
his eyes fixed wistfully upon my face,
feel that he is mutely asking if his
rival still lives in sacred place called
Memoryland.
l wish l could answer him, but
cannot-quite! l think l know, but it
is so dangerous to be sure!
A woman's heart is such an indefi-
mite thing; she can never be certain
of it as long as the elusiveness of re-
membrance alone separates the past
from the present.
Tonight we are giving little "dou-
zaine dinner because Dolf will never
allow my birthday to go by without
some celebration. (To me it seems

Wisconsin Senator Delivers a Defense of the Administration Relative to MOr0ccan Conference at
 AEHecfran, Spain.

Washington. Jan. 2a.--Fors more than three hours today Mir. Spooner occupied the time of the Senate in explanation and defense of the course Of the ad- Iministratiou relative to the Moroccan conference at Aigeciras. Spain, and in connection with San Domingo.
 The speech was delivered tp crowded galleries and to a weli-iiIled Senate and received careful attention through. out twas In the main response to the speeches of Mir. Bacon and Mir. Till man, and it's purpose was to justify the Presidents acts in both the matters under discussion.
 There were frequent interruptions by Mir. Tillman and some sharp exchanges of repartee between him and Mir Spooner. These amused the galleries but once or twice MT. Spooner showed that he was annoyed and once he made serious protest against Mfr. Tillmans imputation that his appearance in the case was that of special advocate for the administration. There were also interruptions by Messrs. Bacon, Nor gan and other Senators.
 In the Moroccan matter Mir. Spooner contended tha' the President had mere- ly followed precedents In appointing delegates and said that if he had failed to do so he would have been guilty of dereliction of duty, while in the case of Santo Domingo he asserted that the President had made no effort to carry the treaty between Santo Domingo and the United Statee into effect In advance of it's ratification by the Senate.
 MT. Culberson followed Mir. Spooner with a brief speech. in which he said that the President had taken complete Jurisdiction of the subject matter of the Dominican treaty. thus usurping the powers of the Senate. Mir. Lodge gave notice of a speech on the Dominl- can and Moroccan questions tomorrow.

Washington, Jan. 23.-(SpeciaL)-- Some of the Alabama Republicans who have all along given more credit to J. S. Clarkson, Surveyor of the port or New York. for the nomination of Bras tus J.

 The New York papers have stories to the effect that another Republican Is already slated for the position.
 For twelve years or more Clarkson has been a power in corralling negro delegates from the South to National Republican conventions. It was at the request of tho late Senator Hanna that President Mckinley named Clarkson for, Surveyor of New York, If Presi- dent Roosevelt really has decided to dump him, .CIarkson has not been as useful to Roosevelt in strengthening out Empire State political tangles as has been claimed.

 Nine men got ashore about fifteen miles from here. Two men are prison CTS on the face of the cliff and cannot get up or back to the ship. The sea will likely reach them when the tide Is high.
 The men report pathetic scenes. One woman dropped her child in the sea in trying to hand it to her husband. A Iit- tie boy of five is running around the deck trying to find his mother, who Is among those drowned.
