Dowsett then then said that it was UNI
fortunate the Governor had not given

a man well qualified to serve on the
board and he moved his confirmation,
suggesting that the name of w. F..

a Hawaiian could be appointed Hay

worth opposed the confirmation. Nc

ported that the cost of printing and

Dowsett also reported in favor of ta-
bling House Bill No. 217, a measure

vote by which the Governors veto of
House bill No. 1876, the salary grab
bill was sustained. Bishop ru ed the
motion out of order, and quoted Par
liamentary practice in support of this
position. He held that the measure
had been reconsidered this morning
and the motion lost, so that the re-
consideration on this vote could not
be taken again.

seldcn said he did not feel justified in

Nation Man Gets $3.50 Per Ton, High.
est Price Of Season.

Mattoon, Ill.-There has not been
time in ten years when the clean.
up OF old stock in the central broom
corn district has been as complete
as 1t is at present
A few scattering lots OF choice
brush remain. and this is being eager.
" sought for by the manufacturers,
whose stock, in nearly all cases, is at
low ebb. There has just been made
a sale Of 20 tons at $3.50 a ton. this
being the high figure for the season,
though several sales at s125 have
oeen reported during the past two
weeks.
So far as known there are only two
blocks Of choice Illinois stock Of any
considerable size remaining IN the
central district
The high price commanded for
brush has been encouraging to grow
ers. A canvass shows an increase Of
fully per cent. in acreage for the
present year. These figures Indicate a
plant OF $1,000 acres. as against $4,000
acres last Ysar.

RUNS AWAY WITH AN INDIAN.
Mother, However, Spoils Boys Dream
Of Wild and Woolly West.

Hammonton, N. J.-White Tiger.
who claims he is fullblooded Apache
Indian and has been giving wild west
exhibitions here. was arrested charged
with attempting to kidnap John D.
Laughlin, aged 13 years.
The boy left his home in the morn
ing to work in SINNERS glass factory.
Instead Of going to work he met
White Tiger and went to Winslow's S
Junction with him. There they were
arrested by Officer William Keyser on
a warrant sworn out by the bcy's mo-
ther. just es they were going to leave
on a freight train for Jersey City.
At the hearing before Justice ]. Fl.
CASTOR the boy said the Indian had
told him that If he would go with him
they would make lots OF money giving
shows, and would go to White Tigers
Indian home IN Oklahoma.
The Indian showed that he was a
United States prisoner out on parole
from the Lawton (Okla) penitentiary
He was discharged by Magistrate Gas
ton, who decided that the boy was
too old to be kidnapped and went with
the Indian voluntarily.

Manager Saw the Possibilities Do the
Situation.

Jim Johnstone. the famous base
ban umpire. said recently in New
York that baseball crowds we're far
kinder to umpires than they used
to be.
"This is true Of theater crowds,
too, said BIr Johnstone "Why, with
provincial touring companies in the
past, maltreatment was regularly ex-
pected. In fact, the companies prof
tied by It in more ways than one.
7 know Of a company that was
playing The Broken Vow in Paint
Rock, a one night stand. The audi
ence didn't like The Broken Vow and
eggs, cabbages and potatoes rained
.pol the stage
still the play went on. The hero
raved through his endless speeches,
lodging an onion or a baseball every
other minute, and pretty sore from
those missiles that he hadn't been
able to dodge.
"But finally a gallery auditor in a
paroxysm Of rage and scorn hurled a
heavy boot, and the actor, thoroughly
alarmed, started to retreat.
Keep on playing, you fool Kissed
the manager from the wings, as he
hooked in the boot with an umbrella.
Keep on till we get the other one.

What virtue Is there in the secrecy
with which the doctor hedges about
his profession?
Professional etiquette" occupies a,
prominent place in the curriculum of
every medical school, and when strict.
ly analyzed professional etiquette
seems to mean doing what is best for
the doctor, individually and col
