LIVE TOWN TACTICS.

In taking steps to cause the removal
of all wooden awnings in Dallas, the
council has set good exampe by tear
ing down the old and dilapidated porch
in front of the City Hall. The appear
ance of the building is so greatly inn
proved that the people are all wonder
ing why the porch was not removed
years ago. Wooden awnings are a relic
of antiquity, and when old and decayed
are a constant menace to life and limb
They are also a great obstacle in the
way of fire lighting, as was demonstrated
in the burning Of the kirkpatrick build
ing few weeks ago. To the credit o.
the town, it should be said that there
are only few wooden awnings remain
| ing in the business district, and as they
are nearly all in bad state Of repair
their removal win occasion little loss y

ROOSEVELT REPORTS ON CANAL.
Sends to Congress the Annual he
ports of the Commission.


President Roosevelt transmitted to
Congress Monday the annual reports OF
the Panama canal commission and the
Panama Railroad Company, with the
Secretary of Wars letter of transmlttal
to him. Speaking of the work on the
isthmus, Mr.. Roosevelt says:
"All the work SO far has been done,
not only with the utmost expedition, but
in the most careful and thorough man
ner; and what has been accomplished
gives us good reason to believe that the
canal will be dug in a shorter time than
had been anticipated, and at an eXpendl-
ture within the estimated amount.
"F'rom time to time various publlca-
tons have been made, and from time to
time in the future various similar publ
cations doubtless will be made, purport-
ing to give an account of jobbery, or i'm
morality, or inefficiency, or misery, as
obtaining on the isthmus. I have care
fully examined into each of these accu-
sations which seemed worthy of atten-
ton. In every instance the accusations
have proved to be without foundation in
any shape or form.
"Any attempt to cut down the salaries
of the officials of the isthmian commits
sion or of their subordinates who are do
ing important work, would be ruinous
from the standpoint Of accomplishing the
work effectively.
"The zeal, intelligence and efficient
public service of the isthmian commission
and it's subordinates have been notewor-
thy. I court the fullest, most exhaustive
and most searching investigation of any
act of theirs, and if any one of them is
ever shown to have done wrong his pun
ishment shall be exemplary"

EDWARDS A SUICIDE.
THAT is OPINION OF NEW HAVEN
CORONER.
Thinks He Drank Poison and Shot
Himself in Back Yard, and Then
Got Back to His ROom-Chinese
Exclusion Act Holds.

Coorner Eli Mix has announced that
the result of his investigation Of the
death of Charles A. Edwards in New
Haven, Conn, indicated that Edwards
committed suicide. The coroner said that
the investigation had not been concluded,
but that all surveillance over Allan
Maxcy Hitler had been withdrawn. Here
are the main facts which the coroner
sets forth as leading to the belief that
Edwards killed himself: The finding of
morphine in the body; the finding OF
bottle of laudanum in the back yard,
together with a revolver. Of which two
chambers were empty; the finding OF
blood stains outside the rear dining room
door and leading up the back stairway
to the landing in the front hall. The de-
duction is made that the coroner has con-
WINGED himself that Edwards went into
the back yard, drank poison, shot himself
and then went up to his room, where he
died.

Democratic Anti-LiquOr Man Inau-
gurated i'm Ohio.
Under unwonted conditions-bot ply
steal and political M. Pattison
was inaugurated at Columbus as Gov
ernor of Ohio Monday.
The political popularity of the cere-
mony was that the new executive is a
Democrat-the first the buckeye State
has called to Office in many years. Mr..
Pattison introduced a unique feature at
the inaugural ceremonies by reviewing
the parade while standing in glass cage
which had been erected on the reviewing
stand to guard him from the wintry air.
Gov. Pattison had been i'll with a severe
cold for several days and under no other
conditions would his physician permit
him TO venture beyond his home.
The spectacle of a new Governor
standing in a glass case to review the
parade celebrating his induction into Of
fice attracted an immense crowd of peo-
pie, every section of the State being rep
resented. Gov. Pattison and his party
stood in the cage, which was ten feet
high and about twelve feet square, with
q peaked roof, and watched the troops
and civic organizations as they fled
past.

Mrs. Sarah E. Rowe, who is residing

taken Dodd's kidney Pills, that well
known medicine that has put new life

God-send into homes of sorrow and
suffering. She says:
mo one knows what awful torture
I suffered with Rheumatism and Kid

New York harbor Sunday. The Ken
lucky was so badly damaged that it
was unable to proceed with the fleet.
The Maine, Admiral Evans flagship,
was the only vessel to carry pilot
and was leading the squadron, the
Kentucky, Kearsarge, Alabama and
Illinois following in close formation in
the order named. An ebb tide and a
west wind combined to urge the YES
sells toward the east side of the chan
mel and the Kentucky went aground.
There was not room for the Kearsarge
to sheer off into the main channel
without a collision, so her commander
drove her aground. The Alabama at
tempted to make the channel and
struck the Kentucky a glancing blow
on the starboard quarter, carrying
away the rail and all belonging to it.
The upper steel plates of the Ken
lucky were bent for a distance of
about ten feet. Both the Kentucky
and Kearsarge freed themselves and
the Kearsarge joined the fleet outside
the bar.
Rear-Admiral Charles Fl. Davis, in
command of the second division of the
squadron, with the Alabama as flag
ship, explained the accident in detail,
but would not comment on it other
than to say that the high wind, the
action of the tide and the narrowness
of the channel were directly respon-
sible He would not say that the
Kentucky was seriously disabled. He
was of the opinion that his own yes
sci, the Alabama, was not

DEMANDS NEW LAW.

Governor of New York Urges Pas
sage of Drastic Insurance Law.
Governor Higgins message to the
New York Legislature, which was pre-
sented to that body, urged the passage
of a drastic insurance law. Some Of
the reforms suggested by the. Cover
nor in his message follow:
That large amounts ought, for the
safety of the insured as well as for
the good of the community, to be in
vested in bonds secured by mortgages
on real estate at a conservative valua-
ton.
That deposits with or loans to mon
eyed corporations should be subject to
suitable restrictions.
That the control of subsidiary COM
panies should not be permitted.
That Insurance directors should have
no conflicting business connections.
That investments in corporate bonds
should be regulated so as to prevent
speculation and loss from an attempt
to float doubtful enterprises.
That policies should be Of standard
forms, so that the abuses arising from
ambiguity, complexity and incomplete
ness of contract may be eradicated
and the contract made definite in form
and substance.
That a uniform system Of audits
and accounts should be prescribed by
the insurance department.
That full publicity to policy holders
should be assured.
That deferred dividend policies
should be prohibited or greatly re-
stricted.
That policies should be further safe
guarded from forfeiture.
That an equitable distribution Of the
gains Of the company to the policy
holders entitled thereto should be re-
CURED.
That policy holders should have an
effective voice in the government of
the companies and that the discretion
| of the directors should be subject to

AN IMPENDING CRISIS.
Part New COnstabu1ary Will Play I'm
Pennsylvania Strikes.

Pennsylvania Strikes.
There are indications of long and
bitter strike in the anthracite coal re-
gions and financiers with vast interests
in the coal roads privately declare that
the anthracite mine workers will be do
ing we'll if they have any work to do
for three months after March Is. It is
particularly significant that retail coal
dealers supplying the anthracite field
have been for months past urging their
patrons to lay in years supply of coal
and that every storage yard in the region
is taxed to its utmost capacity with do
nestle sizes of anthracite.
In such strike the new State con-
stabulary will take part. The law
creating the State constabulary provides
for four troops, each consisting of one
captain, one lieutenant, five sergeants
and fifty privates. Every private will
be a soldier who has seen actual service
in the field. The law calling out this mo-
bile force of armed men was enacted by
the Pennsylvania Legislature at its last
session and while it is possible that one
or two companies Of the National Guard,
recruited right in the heart of the anthra-
cite field, might waver in a finish fight
at the mines the picked men of the con-
stabulary will follow the code of the reg
ular army and will perform their work
as they face it.
There was no excuse for organizing
this force of sharpshooters except the
impending strike in the anthracite region
which will call out $4,000 men. Under
the law the constabulary has authority
similar to that of a sheriff who, in
Pennsylvania, is law unto himself in
all matters coming under his personal
observation. This new armed force can
go anywhere in the State, just as the
judges may, and once there may act
with or without the consent of the
sheriff
