SHE Was A CRANK
WOMAN WAS THE FIRST CRANK
TO INSIST ON SEEING TEDDY
AT OYSTER BAY.

Oyster Bay, July 16-The usual sum-
mer visit of cranks to Oyster Bay in
hope of reaching the president began
today with the advance of woman of
70 years, who wanted to go to Saga
more hill to present a claim for SILL
100000.
Secret service guards stopped her
and placed her on board an out going
train. They were unable to discover
on what she based her claims. Just
as she was leaving town an old man
appeared at the village postoffice and
announced in loud tone:
Il am the devil and am going to
see President Roosevelt" He has not
yet been apprehended by the presi-
dents guards.

Lincoln, Neb., July 16-The heavy
rainfall OF the past three days has
swollen streams in southeastern Neb-
raska to high food marks, carried
away bridges, drowned cattle and in
undated fields where grain had been
harvested, but stood in the shock.
One estimate of the damage to coun'

The Burlington railroad is said to
have sustained losses near Salem,

of more than 100000. The Nemaha

The Two Wehsters

Just at present Noah Webster
seems as big a man as Daniel Web
ster, to judge from the devotion so
many congressman manifest for the
former. Noah, the photographer, and
Daniel, the expounder, are both great
authorities, though Daniel has here
tofore been much more frequently
quoted in debate. Whenever a con-
stitutional question is up we may
be sure that Daniel Webster will be
cited before the discussion has lasted
long In the course of the reappor-
tiOnment debate following the census
of 1900 Daniel Webster's opinions on
the subject of representation were
quoted not fewer than twenty times
in one week in the house of represen-
tatives The government rested it's
case in the insular controversy large
ly on Webster's exposition of the con
stitution, and it won. Daniel Web
ster was a whole supreme court in him
self Noah Webster, if any kinsman
of the Immortal Daniel" was a dis
tant one, but there is a certain re-
semblance in the minds and labors
of the two suggestive of a common
ancestry Noah Webster did for the
English language in the United States
what Daniel did for the constitution,
he expounded it, Moreover, while we
think of him usually as a lexico-
rapher, he was a publicist OF note.
He is credited with making the first
sketch of a federal constitution for
this country, outlining nation as
successor to the staggering confeder-
alton as early as 1884, and as a
writer on international law he was in
advance of his time. His treatise
on the rights of neutrals may still be
read with an interest not altogether
historical. II fact the two Websters
were both publicists of high standing,
though Daniel has so oyershadoWed
Noah in that capacity that Noah is re-
membered chiefly by his dictionary,
which to be sure, is his nagnum
opus.-Boston Transcript.

Il sink my title in America. An

Tallyrand's was-how it was gradu-

"Tallyrand once gave a dinner
party, and in serving the beef he
graduated his manners to his guests
rank in this way:

highness a little beef?

me to offer you some beef?
"To a marquis Marquis, may 1

ITO a iscount-Viscount, have
some beef?
"To a baron-Baron, some beef?
"To an untitled gentleman-Some
beef?
ITO his secretary-Beef?
There was present a person even
inferior to the secretary. and to MIN
Tallyrand did not say SO much as one
word. He simply looked at the man,
and pointed the carving knife at the
beef interrogatively."

FEATHERlNe HIS NEST

A wealthy New York banker, while
visiting his parents in a small town,
was stricken with fever. For three
months he was confined in the old
homestead, dutifully attended bw a
fond mother and a very jealous doc
tor. The banker recovered slowly.
One morning he decided that fresh
air would do more for him than medi-
cal environment, and in short time
he was able to dismiss his physician.
When the doctors bill arrived the
banker studied it very closely. A
few moments later the mother saw
her son go to the woodshed, procure
an axe and begin hewing at the hitch
ing post, which had stood in front OF
the house for fifty years.
Frank" she shouted Historically,
believing her son in another delirium,
what are you doing?"
You'll have no further use for it, y
chuckled the perspiring banker.
Hereafter the doctor will come in an
automobile. "-Philadlphia Record.
