death OF THE CHRONICLE.

There is something beautifully appro-
pirate in the taking off of the Chicago
Chronicle. which ceased publication on
ocratic vision. The Chronicle was
started as a Democratic newspaper by
John r. Walsh of Chicago National
bank fame, who used it solely as an
adjunct to his banking business and for
the political power it gave him in city
affairs
Preaching the Hottest morality and
the highest standards in public affairs,
II pandered to Walsh's friends and
dubbed his enemies without mercy.
Through it he controlled at various
times the park boards. the city offices,
some of the state offices and every
avenue of public revenue he could com
mand or compel. Its only influence
was the fear of it's power, and that
power was at the disposal of any man
who could contribute directly or indi-
rectIy TO waish's income and influence.
Although it had been founded as a
Democratic newspaper, the Chronicle
holted Bryan in 1886 because. it averred
Bryan's financial theories were un-
sound, and Bryan himself was untrust-
worthy. To the Chronicle, with it's
professedfy high standards; its impec-
cable honesty and altruistic purposes.
Mr.. Bryan was intolerable, and among
all his opponents he had none so bitter.
none so vindictive as this Walsh news
paper. Having bolted the Democratic
nominee. the paper few years later
announced that henceforth it would he

DOLLAR FOR A DEAR HEART.

She was ready for sleep as she lay on my
arm
In her little frilled cap so fine.
With her golden hair falling out at the
edge
Like a circle Of noon sunshine;
And 1 hummed the old tune Of ''Banbury
Cross"
And Three Men Who Put Out to Sea. >,
When she sleepily said, as she closed her
blue eyes:
Papa, what would you take for me?'
And I answered: "a dollar. dear little
heart"
And she slept, baby. weary with plav.
But 1 held her warm in my love-strong
arms,
Oh the dollar meant all the world to me
The land, the sea and the sky,
The lowest depth of the lowest place,
The highest of all that's high.
All the cities with streets and palaces,
With their people and stores of art,
would not take for one low soft throb
OF my little ones loving heart;
Nor ali the gold that was ever found
In the busy wealth. finding past
Would / take for one smile OF my dar-
ling's face,
Did / know 1t must be the last.
So I rocked my baby, and rocked away,
And I felt such a sweet content,
For the words Of the song expressed more
to me
Than they ever before had meant.
And the night crept in, and I slept and
dreamed
Of things far too gladstone to be.
And 1 walked with lips saying close to
Papa, what would you take for me:''

THE WESTERN MANS HAT.
New York SunO


Did you ever notice that a western
man objects to being separated far from
his hat?" inquired a citizen who in the
years gone by lived upon a Texas
ranch. Il can tell a western man al
most as soon as 1 see him by the way
he handles and treats his hat.
Il mean the real westerner-the man
who has served his time punching cows
and following the roundup. l dun't
care how long a man has been away
from the range region of Texas or Kan
sas or the Dakotas he never loses his
hat habit
THE average cowboy and ranchman
takes more pride in his hat than in any
other article of his apparel. This trait
of character must have been absorbed
from the MeXicans, who will spend their
last $40 for a gold-braided. high-pointed
sombrero, even If they have to wear
sandals the remainder of the year.
This applies not. only to the wide
brim sombrero style, but to the derby
as well. A cowboy thinks nothing of
paying IS for one of those big white
hats Perhaps it is the value of the
hat that causes its owner to cling close
to 1t.
AT any rate. the hat and the man
are never separated more than a few
feet. / see this fact demonstrated every
day right here in New York, even in
the best restaurants The hat rack
may be ever so handy, but the man
from the west carries his headgear in
his hand and either keeps it on his Ian
or lays close by him on the floor while
he eats. l have seen them object to
delivering up their hats ut the hat room
in the hotels of the country while they
are at their meals.
which take place upon the ranches the
men never lose sight of their hats. This
attachment for their hats extends to
the Texas rangers and other peace off,
GERS throughout the entire west
when the ball in honor of the in
auguration of Colonel Tom Campbell as
governor OF Texas was given in the bis
hall of representatives in the capitol
at Austin a few months ago, Captain
Bill Mcdonald. the noted ranger COM
mander attended the event Dressed
in new suit of handme-down drat
clothes, with his trousers in his highly
polished boots, and wearing his big
white sombrero jauntily upon one side
of his head, the wiry little captain pre-
sented his card of admission at the door
of the ballroom and was directed to the
check room, where he could leave his
hat.
"' Do you think I'm a-goin' to turf
this hat over to some stranger to lool
after while herd with this crowd !? ht
said contemptuously. No, stree; Tn
a-goin' to tie onto my hat, even IL it /.
against the rules of the roundup
And Captain Mcdonald kept hi:
word. He mixed around with the elite
of Texas society, carrying his hat in hi.
hand. He was afterward asked why h,
did not leave his hat in the cloak room
Do you think 1 was going to take
any risk with my hat?' he asked. How
did 1 know I would ever get 1t bacl
again? / am going to carry my ba-
with me wherever / go, and If folk:
don't like it they know what they car

AREA OF LAKE DOUBLED.
Engineering Scheme for the Panams
Canal Has Been Revised.

Washington, Juen lin explanation
of the cabled report from Panama of
extensive revision in engineering esti-
mates for he Gatun dam and lake upon
the sufiieiency of which the success of
the entire project depends, the follow
ing statement was today issued by the
istamian canal commission:
Detailed surveys which have been
completed on the isthmus show that
the area of the great Gatun lake will
be 225 square miles, or double the esti-
mate made in the minority, or lock
canal. report of the board of consulting
engineers, which is 10 square miles. In
the opinion OF those engineers of the
commission who have given most study
to the question. this large area is a
great advantage to the lock type of
canal, in both wet and dry seasons. 1t
will make it possible TO impound all
water even in extreme floods like that
Of last December, and to handle 1t with
less fuctuatIon in the canal level.
The larger lake. it is estimated, will
give sufficient water for fifty-six locks
8 day instead of twenty-six, as hereto
fore calculated"
