Senator Carmack in his speech an

Presidential Controversy"
ST think 1t proper TO say that any re-
port that Senators may have heard that
the President personally solicited my sup
port in this matter: that he urged me to
sonal remarks. and begged me to stand
between him and those twin enemies OF
his administration, the Senators from
South Carolina and Ohio. is gross ey-
aggeration. Will not say that 1t is Tn
infamous falsehood. because such Ian
suage belongs to the vocabulary OF pres!-
dental controversy rather than that Of
senatorial debate.

the only charge that can be Justly made
against the President IS that lie has
loved the negro not wisely, but too we'll.
There is something pathetic in the Pres
ident's plaintive recital OF all that he has
done and attempted for the negro race.
Yet there is no man in this country to-
day. not even the Senator from South
Carolina. who Is 80 universally and so

 rassine Situation.

Young Harwood's Cousin Evelyn had invited him down to her country place to stop over the holidays. He arrived just before dinner, to find that he had left his golf clubs behind him.
 It was most exasperating; but his cousin comforted him somewhat by promptly offering the use of her clubs. The next day he started early for the links with Evelyn's husband. but in an hour he was back again. Were the clubs so bad?" she inquired; couldn't you finish the gamer" He answered shortly that he had not cared to finish the game--of course there was noth- ing the matter with the clubs. When Evelyn's husband came home for luncheon at noon she questioned him. What's wrong with Bob, Henry?" she asked; didn't the game go smooth ly?" Her husband chuckled. Tt was your clubs" he explained. T don't wonder he isn't happy. He was pre- pairing to tee ofr at the hole in front of the clubhouse, with lot of girls on the veraRda watching him. He picked up your bag of clubs to take out the driver but 1t was caught fin some way, and he turned the bag upside down to shake 1t loose. The driver tumbled out then, and with it came your false fringe. your powder pun. your green veil. and that little ivory handglass you carry around. Do you wonder his feelings are somewhat bruised ?"-Harper's Magazine.

 When the party returned to the sur face with their rescued comrades the men were almost dead from exhaus- ton.
 The successful rescuing party has been trying to reach the sevep men who have been imprisoned in the Der wynd-White mine at Foustwell, Somer- set county. since last Friday, by rush of water that filled all the head ings of the mines. Without food or water the men have been able to make known that they were not drowned by tappings on compressed air pipes. sig nals that renewed the vigor of the men working at pumps which were empty ing the mine at the rate of 2,000 gall Ions a minute.

President Roosevelt Favors
 Freedom For Anderson.
NINE YEARS AN HONEST CITIZEN.
Escaped Convict a Modern valjean. His Reformation Warrants a Com- mutation or Pardon Outright,
 Says Executive.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-President Roosevelt in a note to the department of justice expressed the opinion that John William January of Missouri should have his sentence commuted at once or be pardoned outright. --Janu- nry was convicted some years ago of robbing a postoftice in Oklahoma and served the greater portion of five year sentence at Leavenworth. He then escaped and after nine years of liberty was rearrested in Kansas City, where he had become respected and prosperous, and returned to prison.
 The president made the following in- dorsement on the statement:
 'In view of the statements of the judges. bank presidents and so forth, who know him, I think Anderson's nine years of life as an honest citizen, hard working and of good repute, war rant us in committing his sentence at once or in pardoning him outright. Which do you think ought to be done: Are there sufficient reasons for not doing eitherg"
 John William Japuary. thirteen or fourteen years ago. when he was just twenty-one years old, broke into the postoffice at HennesSey. Okla, for the purpose of robbery. He got no booty worth anything. but was caught. tried in the federal court at Guthrie and sen tenced to serve five years in the peni- tentiary.
 In prison January was a model of good behavior. He was working for the good conduct communication and had come to within eight months of the time when he would be liberated when he saw a chance to escape and took 1t. He worked his way north and after a time got work on a railroad with q construction gang. He saved his mon ey and finally had enough to get to Kansas City. There. under the name of Charles ". Anderson. he got a job on a street railway. He was steady and sober. worked hard and saved his money.
 At length he saved enough money to buy out a small restaurant near the car barns of the street railroad His principal customers were his former vorkmates.

been written by the poet while in Am gers prison. The author of Hymns and Their Makers" quotes legend in relation to its use on Palm Sunday, S21, to the effect that when Louis the Pious, king of France, was at fingers, he took part in the usual procession of laity and clergy, and as the process sion passed the place where St. Theo- dulph. the bishop of Orleans. had long been incarcerated he was seen stand- ing at the open window of his cell. and there, amid the silence of the peo- pie, he sang his hymn. to the delight of the king, who at once ordered him to be set at liberty and restored to his see. In some minor details this legend is referred to by other writers as well. The original is too long to be sung in modern services. as it has no fewer than IS lines. The verses usually found in our hymnals are but a frag- ment of the original hymn. which, with more or less abbreviation, has been used as professional for many cen turies.-The Culver.
