HOW DID THE OLD CHIEF

KNOW?
 In the early days of Union Pacific railroading Victoria, Mana and Geron- imo, the three chiefs of the Arizona Apaches, with 100 of their best bucks, came througsl to Green River, Wyo- ming.
 They had heard of the "heap wagon and no boss" and had come to stop the train. They make lasso of raw hide, and 50 men on each side held on to the rope as the freight came down the Wasatch divide. The engi- neer saw when several miles away what the Indians were up to, 50 he whistled of brakes" and, opening his throttle, let her loose. The cow catcher struck the rope and hurled the Indian in all directions, literally tear- ing them to pieces, headless, armless and legless. The three chiefs went south to their cactus plains very crestfallen.
 Now, what did the old chief know about pulsation of the arterial system or of aeart action and, indeed, about salt in the system? have lived neal to Indian reservations and have hat occasion often to survey over theii lands for railroads and other objects and l have wondered where old Vic toria got his idea. Is not the chilt of the sage brush plains better posted than t1is paleface brother -Chicag, Inter. Ocean.

The succeeding function of the visit was a reception for all the boys of the school at Professor Gardner's home, where chocolate was served, and where all had an opportunity to personally meet the president.
 The president had taken keen delight and recreation during the afternoon.
 Groton is covered with snow, and the cold of the past few days has frog en it hard. The day was a typical, cold New England country day, with the snow in abundance everywhere, and the president often spoke of his interest and delight in the winter scene as he walked about the school grounds with several of his friends.
 So many things there were to do that the afternoon passed most quickly, and soon the good byes had to be said.
 The same big sleigh took the party back to the railroad station, but this time instead of by the coachlnan, the lively bays were driven by Grafton D. Cushing of Boston, who teaches at the Groton school, and who .s also close friend of MT. Roosevelt. There were besides the president and MT. Roose- welt, Mrs. Longworth and Miss Ethel Roosevelt, while Kermit sat in front with MT. Cushing.
 There was a larger company of peo- pie at the Aver station, when the Roosevelts arrived from the school. MT. Roosevelt and the members of his family, with the exception of Kermit, entered the special car while the spec tators clapped and cheered.
 Good bye, all" the president said rom the rear platform, as the train started. and the voices of the villagers reached him. The return trip to Bos- ton was without incident. The cars were not, however, drawn into the north station, but were switched off just outside the terminal to the tracks of the Grand Junction branch of the Albany & Boston railroad, over which the train passed through East Cam bridge and Cottage Farm, and thence, reaching the main line of the Boston & Albany road. into the South Terminal station, where the presidents car was coupled to the regular Washington ex- press.
 The train bearing President Roose- welt and his party arrived in this city at 1:O9 1-2 o'clock this morning, and left at 1:14 o'clock. The train was an hour and ten minutes 1ata

Several hundred people were grouped along the approaches to the tracks when the president and Dr. Bigelow appeared, and the president was given cordial greeting as he passed through the sta tion to his car. As the train pulled out about Il o'clock MT. Roosevelt stood upon the platform and waved friend ly goodbye to the spectators, who

This is continuation Of the pecu-
liar war Instituted some two years ago
among the tobacco planters Of south
western Kentucky, in what is known
as the dark tobacco belt'' The
property of men who had refused to
join what is known as the BLACK
Burley Tobacco Association has
been destroyed by the night riders.
Tobacco barns and the tobacco stem
meries of the tobacco trust have been
burned, and the plant beds Of non
association growers have been dug
up.
Soon retaliation started. Heavy
rewards were offered for the maraud-
ers, and the property of association
people was destroyed, turning the
fight into war between the factions.
The members Of the Association,
which wants to keep the tobacco away
from the American Tobacco Company,
assert that some Of their neighbors are
reaping the benefit Of the Associa-
ton while not paying for its support.
The plan of destruction was adopted
to force them to join the Association.
The Governor issued proclamation
Offering $500 reward for any one
found trespassing on the property of
his neighbor, but the night riders are
feared as was the Ku Klux Klan, and
no one will dare appear against them.
The depredations have gone on un-

Reverence For AGE.

There is an old story which illus
trates the reverence which the ancients
felt for old age. Into one Of the great
est amphitheatres of Greece, filed to
the gates with a throng assembled to
witness the athletic games so popular
in those days, an aged man went one
day. Every seat was taken. One
hundr d Athenian boys sat on one
side; as many Spartan youths sat on
the other side. Seeing the Old man,
the Athenian boys, true to their in
structions. rose, and uncovered their
heads, but not one went SO far as to
offer his seat % the aged man.
He turned toward the Spartan side
All rose and, Dowing low, each prof
fered his seat, whereupon the Athen-
ian lads broke out in prolonged ap-
plause.
The old man paused, smiled, and
bowling, said: "The Athenian knows
what reverence for old age is; the
Spartans show that reverence
Is it not true that many of US are
a little slow in extending that respect
TO old age which we know belongs to
it? 1t is so easy, it may be, to pass
the aged by without word of greet
ing. but how much such a word
means to them! A little more thought
fulness, little greater regard for the
sensitive nature of those in advanced
life, little kindly effort in their be-
half, and the world would be both
happier and better.-Cathclic Senti-

This statement made by two of the
most respected physicians Of this city,
will, as stated, be a source Of gratlfl-
cation to those persons, not only in
Charleston, but in all parts Of the
State. who knew Mr.. Kelly and, hav-
ing admired his powers for usefulness
and deplored the unfortunate occur

vindicated.
1t would do no good now to review
in detail the circumstances Of the
mysterious disappearances which
hlighted Mr. Kelly's life. They were
until now inexplicable in their nature.
They began a number of years ago,
prior to the time that he became
minister. but at first they were or

these earlier unfortunate actions.
For q considerable time after he
began to preach Mr.. Kelly appeared
to be thoroughly well balanced and
MS career seemed to be full Of prom
ise. He had married the daughter OF
one of the most prominent and pop
uiar ministers IN the Methodist
curhch. he was himself a most at
tractive preacher and an earnest and
zea!ous worker. and his personality
was such that he made for himself
scores and hundreds Of friends, both
in his own denomination and out Of
it, at every charge at which ne was

Then, while located at Sumter,
about nine years ago. Mr.. Kelly sud
denly disappeared. He was gone for
some months. and when finally locat-
ed by his friends was unable to give
an account of his whereabouts during
the time he had been absent from
South Carolina Subsequent to his
return he was again engaged in
preaching. and did effective work
both at Aiken and at North Augusta.
It was while located at the latter
place that he disappeared once more,
and was gone for much longer time
before be again cam oack to South
Carolina. He did not attempt to re-
enter the ministry he found en-
ployment in the Middle West and did
