NEATNEss OF tbs CHINESE.

Next time you are ir Chinatown, no

You will be surprised, possibly, to
find that they are generally clean
and brilliant as though they had just
come from the manicure.
AS are his finger nails, 20 is the
rest CT the Chinaman's body. II IS one
of the queer contradictions about this
contradictory people that although
their houses are usually surrounded
by a fringe Of dirt and although they
don't take to modern sanitation a bit,
they are very clearly in their per
sonal habits.
The daily bath is an institution. A
bathtub is not necessary. Your China
man manages very well with a few
cupfuls of water aud a washrag.
He completes his toilet by polishing
his long nails, M every day or so he
visits the barber, VINO shaves act only
the scanty hair on his face, but also
his head and the inside of his ears.
If he can afford it the Chinamsn puts
on a clean blouse every day or two.

How to Water Plants.

1t is much wiser to give plenty Of
water once every few days than a lit
tie each day. The latter method keeps
the surface moist and the roots nat
urally rise for the moisture, so that
they are near the surface and will be
injured by the heat of the following
day.
Give enough water to go deep, or
else just enough to wash the leaves.
The amateur should be preference
water at night, for then the moisture
has a chance to do its good work be-
fore evaporation starts under the heat
of the suns rays, as it does almost at
once when watering is done in the
morning-Garden Magazine.

take internal remedies. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, and acts di-

VOTE TWO YEARS AGO.

There was not near the amount OF
interest taken in the Republican
nominating election yesterday as the
primaries held two years. ago, Tues
day, February 9, 1904. At that time
over 5000 votes were cast in Rich
mond and the county. !,
The only races for Office this year,
were for prosecutor, coroner, assessor
and sheriff. In 1904 Sheriff Smith
and Coroner Marley had no opposi-
ton and there was no assessor nomi-
mated. Therefore theonly compari-
son that can be made is between the
prosecutors race this year and the
previous primary. Comstock and
Jessup at that time were the rival
candidates and the following is the
vote cast for them:

navigation Of the northeast passage. It
was i'll October, lJli that Dr. Otto
Nordenskjold set out on lis expedition
to the antarctic continent. the one from
which he has reaped most fame, but be-
fore that he had won distinction in ex-
petitions to Patagonia. Alaska and

one of the most prolific in scientific re-
suits Of any enterprise of the kind ever

the correctness of the theory that

earth's history. Later came a time

grew. Skeletons of penguins that grew

CLEAN TICKET.

1t would be hard to find a better
or cleaner ticket than the Republican
voters of this city and county select
ed yesterday. From Representative
Watson straight through the entire
list, there is not a man named who is
not worthy Of the vote of every Re-
publican. AS to talk of an independ-
ent party being organized to defeat
the candidates selected yesterday,
such thing is preposterous. An in
dependent party would have abso-
htely no grounds upon which. it
could successfully combat such men
as were chosen yesterday. In the first
place, there is not man on the tick
ct against whom any exception in
regard to personal morals can be ia
ken. Nor can the cry of machine
made ticket be raised, for there is
not single name on the ticket that
is not there by the will of the ma
jority of the Republican voters. Last
~, the Republican voters of this city
and county realize that to vote an in
dependent ticket next fall, means a
change to Democratic rule. And the
Republicans are not going to be
bamboozled' into committing such
folly as that.
Geographically it would be hard
to find better distributed ticket
than the Republicans have for next
falls election. Penny from Jackson
township; Jessup, Dynes and Com
mons of Center; Marine and Full
ghum of New Garden; Meredith of
Green; Clark of Perry; Wiley of
Franklin; Kirkman, Coe, Ratliff, My
rick, Robinson and Howard OF
Wayne, makes ticket thoroughly
representative of Wayne county and
the city of Richmond. With such a
ticket there will be no doubt about
a Republican victory next fall.

Washington, D. c., Feb. Dim

made one discovery since he has been
in Washington that he has not chron-

Steffen sought an interview with
him.
The Speaker, having just put the
finishing touches on a trimming CIV

in a particularly amiable frame of
mind and submitted to the interview.
The interview was no light affair.
1t dealt with basic principles. The
Speaker had consumed many cigars
by the time the ordeal was over, and
Mr.. Steffen had discovered a lot of
things. Then came a more momen-

his feet, pulled himself together, and
rising, laid a paternal hand on the

County Assessor over \. G. Comp
ton. who has held this office for a
number Of years. The result Of this
race was not known until the last
returns were brought in, as at times
the lead of Marine would diminish to
less than one hundred votes but In
the city a safe margin was kept until
the returns were all recorded.
The large throng of citizens that
va, in attendance at the Court
House to hear the official returns
last evening after the election, SEEM
cd to be immensely plased with the
tmn things had taken and all ex-
pressed themselves as satisfied with
the ticket as it stands at present.
All the candidates accepted victory
" defeat gracefully.
But little attention was paid to
those candidates who had no opposi
ton and many of the voters did not
mark the ballots in favor of them,
thinking it not necessary to do so.
In some precincts, threetimes as
many votes were recorded in the
race for prosecutor or sheriff than
there were for representative or au
ditor, this making the totals of
these seem small.
In the city, those in charge say
that less than fourth the vote
was polled before noon, but that as
soon as the shops closed in the even
ing. voters sWarmed about the vot
ing places, anxious to mark their
ballots and get home. Even after six
o'clock. the time when the polls
should close, there still remained
citizens who had not yet asserted
their rights to self government and
in some places, counting did not be-
gin until seven or later. For this rea
son. many of the returns were slow
in being sent to Republican head
quarters at the court house, and the

ded before the city precincts were
