itself by outragns the principles of Jefferson
The above is the. opinion of Richard Croker
former boss of Tammany Hall, as published TO-
day in an authorized interview in The Free
mans Journal Of Dublin.
In the interview Mr. Croker said that the cleo
ton in New York State turned largely on the
question of trusts.
He expressed the belief that If William Ran
doph Hearst won and carried out his pro-
cramre the effect would be to parayze capital
and thereby paraIyze labor, because capitalists
would be compelled TO invest in government
bonds and stocks. This would be great in

How She Cured Him.

An impecunious young lawyer whose
lack of clients, says a writer in the
New York Sun, has sometimes caused
him to visit a pawnshop told the fol-
lowing story, in which the joke was
on himself:
My mother gave me a gold watch
which was often of more service to
me as a pledge on which to borrow
money in a pawnshop than as a time
piece 1t grieved her to know that
made such use of her gift, and several
times she furnished the means of re-
deeming it.
One day, when 1 had gone partic-
ularly long time without my watch,
mother demanded the pawn ticket
Within a week she handed me my
watch, and promised, as usual, not to
pawn it again. But the necessity re-
turned, and had recourse to the loan

A Warming Runner who Bellows
Like a Bull as He soes.
The sails is a runner who keeps In
front of carriage and warns common
people out of the way and who beats
them with a stick If they do not hurry
up about it,
It is obvious that to do this he must
run quickly. Most men when they run
bend their bodies forward and keep
their mouths closed in order to save
their wind. The sails runs with his
shoulders thrown back and trumpet
ing like an enraged elephant He holds
his long wand at his side like mus
ket and not trailing IL his hand like
walking stick, and he wears a soft
shirt of white stuff and a sleeveless
coat buried In gold lace.
He is perfect ideal of color and
movement, and as he runs he bellows
like bull or roars as you have heard
a lion roar at feeding times in a
menagerie.
There are sometimes two OF them
running abreast, dressed exactly alike
and with the upper part of their bodies
as rigid as the wand pressed against
their sides and with the ends Of their
scarf and the long tassel streaming
out behind.
As they yell and below donkeys and
carriages and people scramble out Of
their way until the carriage they pre-
cede has rolled rapidly by. Only
prlncesses of the royal harem and con-
suls general and the heads of the army
of occupation and the Egyptian army
are permitted two sails; other peopk
may have one.

He shook his fist.

Though most animals possess a tail,
either in the full or the incipient stage
of growth, few of them use it to the
same extent as the kangaroo, the scor-
pion, the horse and the giraffe. What
was its destined use? That it was not
destined for ornament is shown by the
fact that in certain vertebrate it is
proved to be an extension of the verte-
bral column. A satisfactory solution
is 10 be found, 1 think, in the hypothe-
