Penn sylvania and Ohio, where radtcalism made much headway in the Democratic party under the leadership of William J. Bryan.
 Tn speaking of the Middle Western States, to which Illinois holds the same relation, some Democrats of discern ment said that Mir. Hearst has as good a chance to capture Indiana, Michigan. Wisconsin, Minnesota, North and South Dakota and Iowa. having first secured control of Illinois. as any candidate, not excepting Mir. Bryan.
 It was in the trans-Mis sslsslppi coun- try that Mir. Hearst developed his great strength in 1904.
 Mir Hearst now stands to win, ac- cording to many observant politicians of both the old parties, by sheer de- fault Very little reliance is placed on the reaetionary sentiment the conser- vatives speak about, in view of the confirmed inactivity of the old-1ine Democratic leaders.
 A great many Democrats are waiting to hear from Alton B. Parker, David B. Hill, D. cady Herrick, John B Stanchfield. Edwar.l M Shepard and Norman l.. Mack, in addition to Mir. MccarFen and Mayor Mcclellan.
 If there ls no word from them, the Democratic party of the nation is going to settle down to the belief that Mir. Heart has no New York opposition, and that he will go to the convention of 1908 with a harmonious and enthusi- astic delegation.

 Will the New York delegation go to the next Democratic National Conven- ton pledged to W. R. Hearst for the Presidential nomination? Is that the real meaning of the new lineup in the State Committee, the proposed eject ment of Senator McCarren and the con- tinuing co-operation of Mr. Hearst, Charles F. Murphy and w. J. Corners?
 Mir Hearst's friends said this after noon that thoFe Is iio doubt at all that he will have the New York delegates In 1908.
 His opponents, the Democrats of na- tional reputation, who would not sup- port him for Goverpr, said that they believed that Mir. Hearst dropped out of the available class for President when he was defeated for Governor, and that the State organization is bound to rec ognlze this before the delegates are elected, no matter what Mfr. Murphy and Mir. Corners may do for Mfr. Hearst in the direction of building up a new machine.
 1t was Mfr. Hearst's campaigning. his friends declare, which made the elec- tion of the Democratic State ticket pos- slble, in spite of his own defeat, and that, they Auus was GotlptsSGu U9 AhS corporations against which the Ma tional Democracy must array itself next year. They do not agree with the conservative Democrats that Mir. Hearst is eliminated, or ever that he Is tenn porarily disqualifled for leadership.
 And no man, they are confident, who can go into a national convention with his record in the State campaign and with the backing of the New York dele gation, can be safely or reasonably ex- cluded from consideration as presi- dential factor.
 In explanation of the somnolenoe of the New York leaders, one of their number said this afternoon that there is not need for this anxiety about Mr. Hearst, for the reason that the Ma tionaI Democracy will never nominate for President any man with the solid Youth and many of the Northern States against him.

A New Kind of Instruction Given In
 the Art of ShOpkeeping.
 The great increase in the number of five and ten-cent stores in the last few years, nearly every small town having at least one and larger cities several, has caused job5ing concerns to give them special attention. One wholesale house has a complete five and ten-cent store on one of it's floors, not a single detail missing.
 Here the man who wants to buy the outfit for such an enterprise will see all the articles that can be bought for a rickle or dime, from needles to dish rans, on the walls or in showcases The l,ropsr arrangement of the show win dows Is exhibited and everything Tn a real store is duplicated, even to the plate glass window in front the shelves, showcases, etc. Two young women are there to show the intending purchaser the ant of selling to the GUS toner.
 The jobber has a printed catalogue giving the prices of an articles and the lump sum for the whole outfit He will duplicate everything, even painting the front, and the Intending purchaser can see exactly how his store will look from the sidewalk and indoors when 1t is ready for business on the main street in Boonville.

 Widow of ximg's old Friend.
 Who IS she and where does her great wealth come from? Of course she Is an American. Her father was General Wadsworth of Wadsworth manor, Gen. esee Valley, New York, one of the first members of the Union Club to volun- teer his services at the outbreak of the Civil War. The General was mill tary Governor of Washington.
 The Misses wadsworth had the ellsi- ble young men of the day at their feet. One of them married a Philadelphia Rogers, another became Mrs. Arthur Post of New York and upon his death married Arthur Hugh Smith Barry, now Lord Barrymore.
 Miss CorneIIa Wadsw orth became the wife of Colonel Ritchie, distinguished efYicer of the English army but soon after the birth of Wadsworth hitchie' their sor, the father died.
 Ii was in 1867 that Mrs. Ritchie be- came Mrs. Adair. Her husband was John George Adair of Rothraire, Queens County, Ireland, one of the wealthiest commoners in England, and was close friend of the Prince of Wales now King Edward. Mrs. Adair soon became one of the most popular host esses in London. That much-envied reputation she has retained to this day. Her husband died ip 1892, leaving his widow a princely fortune.
 Tn spite of the fact that advancing years make former feats of horseman- ship impossible, Mrs. Adair Is still arr dently fond of outdoor sports and her visits to her Panhandle ranch are al- ways eagerly looked forward to by the scores of employees. Rancher ana dashing horsewoman, society leader and philanthropist. multimplionaire- those are a few of the varied gifts for tune has showered upon the accom- plished daughter of General Wads- worth. Even her beauty she retains to a large extent and in the old days In Washington "Cornella Wadsworth" was a toast to bring a roomful to its feet.

To few great land owners has fallen the princely kingdom of acres that was heoueathed by her husband to Mrs. Cornella Adair. society woman, philan- ShFopist and owner of 100000 acres in the Panhandle of Texas, ranch one third the size of the State of Mas sachusetts.

Witness her management of the vast estate. the survival of her Texan ranch in these days of modern methods and machinery and of combi- nations of capital which have driven hundreds of smaller ranchers to the wall. making ranching unprohtable to thousands.
 Texas points with certain pride to the fact that two of the biggest ranches within her borders are owned and con trolled by women. That each Is man aged with infinite care and with success their survival of years of keenest com petition indicates.
 Mrs. IT. M King is the other large land owner, but her estate in South- west Texas can not be compared with the Adair tract. There are l'27OoO0 acres, 1t is true, but that does not approach Mrs. Adair's 1,500,000 acres,
 
 There are points of difference quite as great between the two women. One a woman of home instincts, of q busi- ness application and entirely devoted to the management of her estate, the other quite as able. quite as proficient in management, but of a wider range of thought and viewpoint. fond of so- ciety and travel. One of the most re- markable things in Mrs. Adair's re- markable success is that she can com bine her London social duties and her annual travels with her business to such an extent that neither suffers.

 There is 8 romance even in the pur- chase of the great ranch. Twenty mine years ago the husband of Mrs. Adair bought 100000 acres near Clarendon, a Texas, at about 20 cents an acre. That was when much land in the Pam handle was regarded as practically worthless, even for grazing. With the flight of years these Ideas changed; 1; deserted tracts of land became the grazing ground of herds of cattle and the Adair estate. if now put put up for sale, would easily bring $10 an acre. that is, SI5,O0O,Oo0 for land alone, and
