Docs and Drinkinq Water.

Who has not at some time or other
cnvied the impunity with which Il dog

ties have solved the problem of a pure
water supply so completely that they
cannot get on without pure water.
Dogs by elimination of those most
readily poisoned by bad water have
become as race immune to bad wa

CHEW TOBACCO AND THINK.
Princeton's President Sees Value In the
Despised Qud.

The value of chewing tobacco as a,
help to ruminative habits that lead to
good craftsmanship is one of the things
that Woodrow Wilson. president of
Princeton university, touched upon in
his lecture recently in the Horace Mann
auditorium mt Columbia university, in
New York. on 'The Senate of the
United States"
DR.. Wilson pointed out the fact that
a western senator. as a rule, is more
valuable than an eastern man because
he comes from the part of the country
that is productive of thought. In the
east, according to Dr. WILSON, men
have no opinions because they do not
have time to think

CANAL PURCHASE is LEGAL
THE SUPREME COURT DECIDES
AGAINST THE CONTENTION
OF ILLINOIS MAN.

Washington, Jan. 9.-That the action
of the secretary of the treasury in pay
ing $50,00O,000 on account of the pur-
chase of the Panama canal property to
the new Panama Canal Company OF
France, as directed by the act of con-
gress of 1902, was valid and regular,
was decided yesterday by the supreme
court of the United States. The de-
cision was announced by Justice
Brewer and was handed down in the
case of Warren B. Wilson against Sec
rotary Shaw. The case was in the ma
ture of an injunction suit by Mr.. Will
son to restrain the payment of the
money and it originated in the local
courts of the District of Columbia be-
fore the money had been paid. The de-
cision of both the district supreme
court and the district court of appeals
was unfavorable to Mr.. Wilson's con-
tention that the action of cong ess was
unconstitutional, but neither these
decisions nor the fact that the secre-
tary had made the payment as direct
ed was sufficient to deter Mr.. Wilson,
who is lawyer and property holder
residing in Chicago.
