ALICE PLUNoEs INTO TANK
Presidents Daughter Leaps in Water
When Congressman Longworth
Fails to Take Dare.

Honolulu.-The transport Sheridan
brings story of how Alice Roosevelt,
fully dressed, dived into a canvas
bathing tank while on the steamship
Mancburia one morning on her way
from Nagasak. She was wearing
white silk waist and a silk skirt, and
was carrying a silk parasol.
Congressman Longworth," she re-
marked, IF you will take a plunge
dressed as you are, l will follow suit"
Longworth, who was arrayed in a
blue, coat. flannel trousers and white
duckshoes shrugged his shoulders.
We'll. if you don't dare, 1 do" said
Miss Roosevelt, and before dozen
members of the Taft party could pro-
test, Miss Roosevelt had tossed her
parasol aside, and, dressed as she was,
lcaped into the tank.
Don't you take dare?" she shout
Cd to Longworth as she arose to the
surface, and started to swim as grace
fully as her bedraggled clothing would
allow This bantering was too much
for the Cincinnati man, and he
plunged into the tank to help Miss
Roosevelt to steps, where they both
climbed up and out of the water.

PARADISE NUTS ARE FOUND
Are Said to Have First Flourished
in Garden of Eden-Connected
with Tradition.

Cleveland, O.-Paradise nuts have ap-
peared for the first time, it is said.
Whatever induced any one to call them
Paradise nuts does not appear on the
wrinkled face of the nuts, but such a
their name.
With the nuts came the whisper of a
tradition that long, long ago, back in
the garden of Eden, when there was but
one man and when but one woman ex-
listed in all the world, tree of nuts sim
liar TO these grew just outside the
kitchen door, and that ever since the
nuts have been called Paradise nuts.
The tradition may be all right, but it
doesn't harmonic very we'll with the
announcement that 1t is an entirely new
nut.
Not so very much different from the
Brazil nut is the newly-arrived Paradise
nut. The meat is very similar to that
of the Brazil nut or cream nut, white,
solid and sweet. The nut costs about
three times whet the best Brazil nuts
bring in the local market. For that
reason, If no other, it is probable that
the Paradise nut will not prove to be ex-
tremely popular in spite of its romantic
name

CHINA COPIES TEUTON
oRIENTALs WILL BUILD ARMY
IN GERMAN STYLE.
Minister to Berlin Recalled and He
May Be Entrusted with Work
Future Never Brighter Than
Now, Says Gen. Yin.

Berlin.-Chlna Is about to organize a
modern enlisted army of 1,000.000 men,
on the German model, in order to form
its own bulwark against foreign ag-
erosion, regardless Of the Anglo-Japan-
ese treaty, according to Gen. Yin
Tchang, the Chinese minister at Berlin.
The general has been recalled to Picking
and will probably be intrusted with the
reorganization of the army in the capac-
ity of minister of war.
"China's future was never brighter
than now" said Gen. Yin. 1.-THE Anglo
Japanese treaty guarantees us such a
period of security from foreign agrees
sion that we have resolved to create a
real army. China must work out its
own salvation. At present it is not ready
for foreign treaties"
When asked If the army, when organ
lied, would be employed in race strug-
gle against the whites, Gen. Yin re-
piled:
Have we reason to love the whites?
Do the whites love us? We can easily
understand the restrictions against the
poor, diseased and vicious coolies, but
the shutting out and persecution of edu-
Gated Chinese, as practiced in some
countries, cannot be defended and now
must cease. Any friendship between the
yellow race and the white race will re-
main impossible until China shall prove
itself able to defend it's own interests.
Then that friendship will grow on a
basis of full equality. am happy at the
prospect of participating personally in
the reform work my country has decid-
ed to inaugurate. / hope that our seri-
GUS efforts to bring the old Chinese civ
illzation up to date will benefit all
humanity"
Gen. Yin Tchang is one of China's
most brilliant soldiers. He was educat-
ed in the German army and speaks the
kaiser's language like native Berliner.

REFUSED PASS; BUYS ROAD
Mrs. Mary s. Holiday of st. Louis
Disposes Of Sixty-Mile Line
for One Million Dollars.

Mrs. Holiday is in high spirits.
Il guess l have made more money in

HIS PATENT CURES
MEDICINES ARE PUT ON sAME
BASIS AS LIQUOR.
Internal Revenue Department De-
clares Manufacturers Must Pay
Rectifer's License-Druggists
to Pay Saloon Tax.

Washington.-Ma of pat
ent medicines which contain distilled
liquors have been put upon the same
plane as rectihers and liquor dealers.
Druggists who handle these patent
medicines are put In the saloonkeepers'
category, and as such must take out
the regular liquor dealers license.
The commissioner of internal rev.
enue has given decision here which
brought about this new status OF the
patent medicine maker and seller, BY
doing so he reversed the decision of
his department made many years ago.
The new ruling will not become OPP
erative until December 1. This is done
to prevent an injustice.
The commissioner, in a letter Of in
struction to collectors of internal rev.
enue, says that there are many COM
pounds on the market going under the
names Of medicines that are composed
chiefly Of distilled spirits, without the
addition Of drugs or medicines in suf-
ficient quantities to change material
ly the character of the whisky.
He authorizes collectors to impose
the special tax upon manufacturers of
every compound composed of distilled
spirits, even though drugs are declared
to have been added thereto, when
their presence is not discoverable by
chemical analysis or it is found that
the quantity of drugs in the prepare
ton is so small as to have no APP
probable effect on the liquor"
"The same ruling" declares the
commissioner, "applies to every alco-
holic compound labeled as a remedy
for diseases and containing, in add
ton to distilled spirits, only substances
or ingredients which. however large
their quantity, are not of a character
to impart any medicinal quality to the
compound"
Collectors are instructed to send out
notices to all druggists and merchants
dealing in proprietary medicines, that
AFTER December they will be re-
quired to pay the special tax as liquor
dealers.
While no statement is made by the
commissioner as to the medicines that
will be affected. it is believed that
the decision reaches several prominent
and highly advertised medicines. In
all instances these medicines have been
rsund to contain as high as As per
c~nt. of alcohol. and there are many
on the market it is said, that contain
25 per cent. of alcohol.
These medicines are said to have i'm
mense sales in prohibition communi.
t1~a. ngures collected in Massachusetts
recently showing that one such adver.
s~~~d compound with high percentage
OF whisky had been bought to the ex-
tent of 100000 bottles in' one year in
prohibition communities of one New
England state.

Fate Of areedv Rattlsr.

In Ozark county, Missouri, the other
day large rattlesnake was found i'm
prisoned between two rails of fence.
The snake had come upon flock of
young quail, caught one of the birds
and swallowed 1t. The survivors ran
to the other side of the fence. where
upon the snake crawled between the
rails until it caught another bird,
which 1t swallowed. The result was
that the snake, owing to the bulge
made by the first morsel. was unable
to move forward and because Of the
second protuberance was unable to go
back. Thus It's greed led to its death.
