determination.
"But, Doodles, dear, you aren't tall
enough to look well in long trousers
yet" demonstrated his mother.
ooh, pshaw!" responded Doodles
to his mothers argument. LOOK at

"Well, just call them 'Stubby' and

her small brother.

"Whe1 boy puts them on he ex-

You can wait another year and then
you will look the part better"
"Oh, gee!" said Doodles in dis
gust. "You said that last year. You
promised that if 1 passed everything |
could have them"
Were 1t not that one must decline
wantonly to offend Doodles' dignity,
one would say that at this point he
SMILED. The family council as a
whole looked uneasily.
"But you see, dear, you are really
only a small boy yet" said Doodles'
mother, with her eyes decidedly
moist.
"Oh, now, mother, there you go!
That's just What you said about cut

because the girls wouldn't bother
dancing with the fellows who didn't
wear long trousers after they got
into the high school. Now, dad, you
know my legs are as skinny as tooth

Doodles' father laid down his news
paper with an air of decision. We'll,
my boy, l suppose you've got to have
them. Meet me down town to-mor-
row, and weIl get the whole togs."
Doodles was up early the day school

Discussion OF the foundation for
the street paving that is 70 be under
taken soon has led up to the Idea of
concrete foundation. In most cities
this sort of foundation has been in
use a number Of years and is being
used altogether now, its durability
and suitableness having been thor
oughly tested and found more salts
factory than any other foundation.
Perhaps, it is not so extensively
used in West Virginia as yet, but
this is doubtless because of the fact
that it has not been brought to the
attention OF the city authorities.
However, in Charleston 1t is used all
together and there is no longer any
thought of using any other there.
That the foundation should be
uniform in every particular none
doubt, in order to maintain smooth
surface and permanent pavement
Cement properly laid would certain
~ bring about that result.
Advocates OF cement foundation
state that it is customary to remove
the soil to the proper sub-grade and
then lay five inches of cement. in
other words. make the cement spread
five inches in depth. On this place
a one-inch sand cushion for the brick
or paving block to be placed in.
Carefully laid this will AFFORD a
pavement that will last for all time.
There is also another feature of
this plan that recommends 1t and
that is that a mixture of sand and
cement may be poured in the joints
OF the paving that will cement the
brick together and there is then a
solidIty that wagons and horses can
not break; thus making the brick
or block firm and unmovable.
Just what the cost would be for
this sort of foundation the Telegram
can not state positively but, If the
figure be any thing within reason,
the cement plan would prove far
cheaper in the end and certainly far
more satisfactory at all times.
The question Is one worthy Of in
vestigation by the city council and
it is hoped that body will take up
the matter at once.

the Parkersburg Sentinel agree with
1t as follows:
The close contest for Senator from
Mississippi has been settled in favor
of John Sharp Williams, who will
become a Senator In Congress from
that state on March 4, 1911. Cover
nor vardamaan, who was Mr.. viii
liams's competitor, ought not to have
been elected. hut he came very
close to It, so close in fact that it
required the onicial figures to settle
the result beyond any further cavil.
Governor vardaman lacks nearly
every element that a Senator ought
to possess, except, perhaps, that of
ability. The country will be the

Hobson,s Lectures.

Congressman Richmond Pearson
Hobson told good many facts in
his able and stirring lecture at the
Clarksburg Chautauqua last night
concerning the attitude of the yell
low race In the far east and the
pressing needs of the American
navy, which, as he says, have been
overlooked and neglected by the
average American citizen. He sat-
isfactorily contradicted the impress
sion that he is hungry for war and
proved that in his work for a
greater naval equipment that he
wants to bring about peace to the
nations of the world through the in
fluence of the United States as a
world power.
What Mr.. Hobson says about the
impending trouble with Japan is too
true and recent diplomatic action on
the part of our own government only
bears out his arguments If by
building a greater navy We can pre-
vent an impending war against
America and bring peace and amity
to the other nations of the world BY
our ability to throw a significant
weight into the balance of power
among the nations, which 1t will do,
let us by all means hasten 10
strengthen our naval power
Such lectures as those given by
Capt. Hobson yesterday afternoon
and last night not only carry forth
to the people noble SPIRIT OF peace
and love to mankind but serve to
awaken latent interest in the minds
of American citizens in the needs
and necessities of our nation in It's
foreign relations as well as to in
struct them, call their attention to

sunday Admission Charge.


The Clarksburg Chautauqua has
some brilliant speakers on its pro-
gram. Some of them. have been here
and one is there today. Such men
are leading thinkers and lecturers
the best the country affords. These
are all here at heavy expense to
the Chautauqua, as they are men
who command a good price for lee
lures and sermons and can not meet
the demand, owing to the limitations
OF time. They are all worthy of
more than they receive, and in
no instance as yet has the Chautau-
qua failed to give the people more
than their moneys worth.
Last Sunday one of the ablest
speakers on the American continent
occupied the assembly platform and
there was enthusiastic praise of him,
his sermon and his lecture. Yet, all
this was given absolutely free to
every one, who attended, except
those who had season tickets. At
the same time the Chautauqua had
to pay him, and proper 1t was that
1t should pay him, but what did it
get in return-to use street par
lance, got 1t in the neck, or, in other
words, lost an opportunity tending
to make the Chautauqua a perman-
ent institution, an opportunity that
might have saved it from bank
ruptcy and from the death knell be-
ing sounded?
The speakers, sermonizers and con-
cert people are paid for their Sup
day services, and. why should the
chautauqua not be. privileged to
charge admissions on Sunday to
meet this expense? 1t is Sunday
expense and what good reason is
there that the means should not be
raised on Sunday to pay it? If the
Sunday work is good at the Chau-
tauqua, why should not those who
feel it's benefits have the privilege to
pay for it, Just as on other days of
the week? There certainly can be
no dissertation of the Sabbath in do
ing this. not any more so than to pay
speakers who speak on Sunday.
There, is also another feature about
this which deserves notice. Season
tickets were sold. Some bought
them. Those who did buy may go
in free on Sunday the same as those
who did not buy. the same as those
who go Sunday only and thus give
the assembly no support whatever.
This inficts an unjust burden,
though individually the sum may be
infinitesimal. 1t is the principle of
the thing more than any thing else.
Moreover, the fact that large
amount of money has to be raised to
insure the success of the assembly
and to carry out the high-class pro-
pram as advertised places the Chau-
tauqua SO far as Sunday is concerned
in the pit the Bible speaks about.
when it is imperative that work
should be done.
What harm can arise from charg-
ing small admission on Sunday
many fail to see, and the act would
certainly do much to make the an
nual Chautauqua a permanent thing,
from which so much good has already
been derived as to Justify a Sunday
admission, If there be any question
at all as to the propriety.

|G0RR0TES TO EAT
GRAND FORKS
DOG
Officials Have Secured Famous
Filipino Village For State
Fair Attraction.

The blcomin'. 'blastin'. head hunt
ing. dog eating. wild-eyed lgorrote is
to one of the feature attractions at
the North Dakota state fair which will
be held in Grand Forks on July %
already contracted for the village and
North Dakotans who have had no OPP
portunity of seeing the Filipino in his
primitive state. will be able to shake
hands with the real. greasy, beetle
nut chewerS.
The Igorrotes who are coming to
Grand Forks are the same which en-
hibited under the u S. governmental
care at the St. Louis worlds fair and
at other eXpositions. so the female
population of North Dakota's fair
fields need entertain no fears but that
the Filipinos will he able to look them
fairly in the eyes.
In the advance circulars which have
been received by Secretary Miller en-
plotting the village. are contained
cuts OF three of the former dog eat
ers, Bugti. Antero and Milo, the trio
being especially comnendable because
of their having attended school both
in the islands and in Los Angeles,
Cal.
In this school connection it might
be of interest to add that Bugti is a
former pupil of Frank E. Force of the
Minneapolis Tribune. Force having
welded the birch and the bowie knife
in the far OFF islands where rice and
lizards grow luXuriantly. Secretary
McBachellor of the Grand Forks Com
mercial club also claims the honor
OF acquaintanceship. 1t is rumored
that they met at grand ball in
St. Louis at the time of the Worlds
Exposition, but this cannot be vouched
for.
Frequent newspaper articles about
the salient points of these primitive
people, have served to tighten the
curiosity. and the visit to North Dako-
ia for the first time of a half hundred
real hot ones" should prove pre-
mier attraction.
The managers of the attraction have
asked for an entire acre of ground

IMMIGRANT SUFFER
As RESULT Of
EMBARGO
Canadian Northern Cannot
Handle Effects Of Settlers
Pouring In.

The embargo OF the Canadian
Northern Railway company against
further shipments OF emigrant effects
to Canadien points on their line on
account OF the present congestion of
traffic. Is causing considerable I'M
easiness and dissatisfaction among
the numerous shippers who have their
stock and household goods ready for
loading and are extremely anxious
to get to their new homes and put In
their crops. While it is difficult to
state just when this traffic can be
renewed. 1t is held out by the Cana
dian Northern company, that the ex-
listing difficulties will not be of more
than temporary duration.
That phase of the situation which
causes the most disquietude is the
difficulty experienced in securing cars
for loading which will be carried
through. without transfer OF contents,
to destination. II the Canadian North
ern could furnish their equipment to
North Dakota and Minnesota roads for
this purpose it would be the simplest
and most satisfactory solution. This,
however, that company says it is alb
solutely unable to do owing to limited
SWIM VI SoIo VII Vic OIuCI NduUs
most Of the American railways refuse
on similar grounds to allow their
equipment to go further than the con-
Meeting point with the Canadian
Northern, where the latter is expected
to furnish cars for the shipment to
destination. Such requirement
works no small annoyance and hard
ship upon the emigrant. but seems
to be necessitated. owing to the large
percentage of cars now in the hands
of foreign lines, forcing upon the
North Dakota railways a careful hus.
banding of the remaining supply to
meet the pressing requirements of
their own business.
Most of the North Dakota compan-
les now refuse to permit their cars
to go beyond their own lines when
ever it can be avoided. II shipments
are destined to points on other lines,
transfers must be made to cars of
the connecting carrier.

Persons who have occasion to travel

the work will start Immediately.
The roads between the cities above
mentioned. parallel each other great
portion of the way and in places are
only two or three feet apart.
