from row on: that in his judgment
President Roosevelt's announcement
lust made would have a good effect.
He said that business in the southwest
had been slowing down quite notice
ably i'm the past few months, and that
there was only one factory he knew
of in the country that had not been
compelled to curtail operations. namely
the w j. Bryan canning factory
which had been and still was working
overtime putting up Bryan's canned
harangues OF the 1896 and 1900 brand.
Mr. Murphy said: However,
there is trouble ahead for w. j. B., as
he does not seem to realize that the
country has been surfeited and his
goods are being rejected everywhere.
and it may be expected that this busy
enterprise will pass into the hands of
receiver early in the fall, if not in
June. The canned goods referred to.

PROSPECTIVE DIAL
FOR A RICH MINE
Probable Sale of a Promising Proper
ty in the Now Famous Wenden Sec
tor.

Howard C.. Cassidy Of Los Angeles,
president of the Cassidy Macaroni Co.
is in the city a guest of the Hotel Ad-
ans. Mr.. Cassidy arrived yesterday
from Wenden and has been for several
days past making an inspection of the
many fine mines and prospects in that
vicinity. in company with Mr.. Carr,
superintendent of one of the mines.
one of the properties in that section
is a partially developed prospect own
ed by Phil Wharton and Billy Palmer.
Mention was made of il in The Repub-
lican sometime ago when a lot of ore
was brought in from the mine, the
quality of which had the effect Of
making d man feel rich just to look at
lit. Ever since that time Messrs.
Wharton and Palmer have been rated
as millionaires. though of course they
have been careful not TO overdraw
their bank accounts, for everybody
knows that gold in the ground is no
better than clearing house scrip for
circulation purposes.
Mr.. Cassidy looked at this mine
among others. and it was a case of
love at first sight. 1t is understood
he is here now To close up a zeal for
liz. but will have to wait a day or two
for Mr. Palmer to return from Aqua
Caliente. where he has beer with a
party of friends for a few days. Mr..
Wharton could turn over the mine and
take the million dollars he ought to get
for il and blow the country, but he is
not that kind of a man. He refuses to
become wealthy unless his friends get
their share. Mr.. Cassidy could not be
found last night TO verify the story,
but aside from all joking it is expect
ed that a deal will be contaminated
and the property has all the evidence
of being large and valuable one.

Legislative Notes.

This legislature established one
state park at very little expense.
One of the appropriations which
undoubtedly the governor will not
veto is for the large sum of 5000
for the purchase of an acre of land
near Belmont on which stand the
buildings of the first Wisconsin
capitol. More money was wanted
for purchase of a larger tract, but
when it was discovered it could not
be obtained, 1t was finally decided
to buy single acre on which the
building stands. An attempt will
be made to preserve the buildings
because of their historical vaule.
az
Liverymen throughout the state
will welcome measure which has
been passed by the Legislature
which makes 1T a misdemeanor for
person hiring a horse from the
livery stable to use the animal fol-
a purpose not represented at the
time of hiring the horse. Assemb-
lyman Fred Soper, of Ripon, was
the father of this bill and his object
is to make 1t a criminal offense for
parties to hire horses and then drive
them long distances and leave the
worn out animals for the liverymen
to come after.
sSS
The bill which provides that
steam railroads cannot block coun-
try crossings for more than ten
minutes has became a law. A
penalty is imposed upon the engi-
neer of the train for violation of
this measure.

A Good Idea.

A woman who goes visiting al
most every summer says that there's
just one way to get ready for her
trip successfully. That is with a
pencil and paper. She claims to
have tried packing without g LIST,
and it has always resulted in con-
fusion. A long time, month if
possible. before her sailing date she
makes out list of the things she
will need to take with her. Then
with this list at hand she sets about
getting the things ready. When
the final packing time comes she
checks off the things in order to see
that nothing is missing.
She says that if one tries to get
rea 1y for long trip without me-
thod something is sure to be left
behind that will be needed. It's
about as bad TO have too many
things along as too few, but the
making of the list will be a safe
guard against this danger as well
as the danger of emitting necessary
articles

Mosquito Remedies.


Mosquitoes, as everyone knows,
ind their lodging places in any cor
ner where dampness turks. An un-
covered rain barrel will bring them
IN hordes. Water barrels should
be covered IN dry weather, all damp
heaps OF dead leaves cleared away
from every corner of the premises,
the sunshine be allowed to enter all
crevlces and the scientists favorite
remedy of kerosene used freely over
stagnant pools. If these precau-
lions are strictly followed the coun-
try family should have no trouble
with these pests, providing the near
est neighbors do likewise. 1t is
easier to follow these precautions
than to keep the insects off with
herbs and lotions.
Ii IN spite of all reasonable pre-
cautions, mosquitoes persistently
haunt the premises small smould-
ering fire of pine boughs or any
fragrant wood built near the house
will have lettering effect upon
them. The fire should shoulder
enough to give forth thick smoke.
which is not at all disagreeable to
persons out of doors.
1t is said that bouquet of penny
royal will, as rule, keep mosquit-
oes away from room. The best
antidote for mosquito bite is
ammonia weakened with a little
salt and water. Some persons use
camphOr. Salt and water is a good
disintectant. Alcohol and a mild
solution of carbulic acid, rubbed
we'll into mosquito bite will .1ill
any germs.
Mosquito netting is certainly ugly
and undesirable. 1t always keeps
out more or less fresh air and plenty
of fresh air in the summer is a
necessity. There seems to be no.
thing to take Its place, however. in
certain localities where mosquitoes
abound.

Learn to Shake Hands.

One does not need to grasp the
hand in death-like grip, but there
is something in a good handshake
which is the silent interpreter of a
welcome. A person possessing a
great deal of personal magnetism
may just take your hand in his and
the cordial welcome is recognized
without even so much as the slight
est pressure of the fingers. Others
may have a good grip, which is
more like clutch. There is no set
rule for handshaklng unless a person
bears IN mind that handshaksng
must be feeling expressed with
the hands and not the eye or voice.
If only done through matter of
form, there is no earthly use of
shaking hands at all. Strong in
tuition serves a great many persons
and to grasp cold clammy hand,
which lies like piece of marble in
ones hand, is to make big hearted
person feel as if he had come in con-
tact with the wrong party.

SUNDAY SERMON

When the government opens up a
little reservation of land, and dis
poses of it by lottery, more money
is spent in grand scramble to be
first on the ground, than the land is
worth.
The old Louisiana lottery was con-
sidered a menace to the people, but
1T was one of the best safety valves
that the nation ever had. Money
might better be invested in lottery
ticket, than in many enterprises
which are called legitimate, and yet
which are gambling pure and
simple.
The old doctrine of hell fire and
damnation, which was formerly
taught so vigorously, was inspired
by the belief that men and women
were taking long chances on the
life to come.
These heroic efforts have largely
given way to the doctrine that what
humanity needs, more than future
protection, is preparation for the
life of here and now, and so the
church today attempts to build
character, rather than safety bar
racks.
People who have attended the
ScOville meetings, have not heard
very much about the hereafter. He
believes that right living an peace
within. means safety here, and no
cause for anxiety about. the here
after. 1t IS a sane and reasonable
belief, and it is not surprising that
men and women are ready to ac-
cept it.
No man can afford to take
chances, on the present life. The
occasional glass may mean the con-
firmed drunkard. The first dollar
borrowed from the till, may mean
defalcation. The first deception
may develop a life of deceit. The
first card played for money, may
mean the full. fledged gambler, and
there is no sin on the long list so
demoral1zIng and destructive. 1t
pays to be clean in heart and life
and the rewards are sure and certain.

Suggestions by Our Better Half.

If a cereal or vegetable burns
while cooking the usual course of
action is to pour the contents of the
burned pan into a clean ettle and
continue the cooking. Even if this
is done the food will often have a
burnt taste. If the first vessel is
plunged into cold water and allowed
to remain in it for a few minutes be-
fore pouring the food into the Sec
ond receptacle there will be none of
this d1sagreeable flavor.
sS2
If pecan nuts are soaked over
night in water and then cracked on
the end the nuts will come out whole.
sS2
A darning needle is rather a
small Implement to use for break
ing ice, but if properly managed it
will prove effective. Place the point
on the ice and strike the needle
gently with a hammer.

1t is said that half lemon kept
in the ice chest will prevent milk
or butter from absorbing the flavor
of other edibles in the chest. When
possible, however, the milk and
butter should be kept in separate
compartment.

LANCASTER DEFEATED.
Home Team Loses to MOnttOrt Tues
day Through Errors.

Lancaster had an off day Tuesday
and dropped a game to Monttort
by score of 5 to 2. Nine errors by
the locals tell the story. Henkel
and Gibson struck out thirteen men
apiece but Gibson had good support
and won out. MontfOrt found
Henkel for four safe ones while Lam
caster bagged six hits off Gibson's
delivery. Henkel pitched a game
good enough to win any time out
wretched support stole the game
from him.
Montfort took the lead in the
second with two runs which faster
fielding would have cut OF. Ian
caster tied the game up on the
fourth when Manley and Glegnorn
pulled off some good baserunnlng'
both scoring on slides to the plate
Montfort added one in the slxtn
and two in the eighth on poor held
ing by the locals coupled with a hit.
Outside of the pitching the feature
of the game were Manley's anu
Rhodes throws from the helo.
Manley threw FROM deep left ana
nipped a runner from third while
Rhodes threw to first and third III
fine style, catching a runner at nrs'
but losing one at third on Mackey's

AN ABUSE.

culture has developed seedless
tomato. If this be true, it is one of
the few genuine discoveries that
the department of agriculture has
made. Seed distribution by the
agricultural department is a good
deal of a fake. Carloads of seeds
are bought by the department from
different growers throughout the
country, shipped to Washington,
done up in packages by hundreds OF
people who are employed by the
department for that purpose, and
then sent out over the country in
franked envelopes to be mailed by
the postmasters to the patrons OF
their various Offices. The depart
ment knows nothing about the seeds
except as they are vouched for by
the seed houses from which they are
purchased. They may be of good
quality or they may be bad. 1t is
simply a gigantic scheme for the
free distribution of ordinary seeds
in the hope of adding to the
personal popularity of the congress-
men and senators under whose
franks they are distributed. AS a
matter of fact, there is not one con-
gresham in twenty who knows to
whom the seeds go. They are sent
in bulk to the postmasters and adj
dressed by them to the patrons OF
their offices and the unsuspecting
citizen thinks that Congressman
Blank has complimented him by
remembering to send him package
of choice seeds
This is the outgrowth of what was
originally a worthy purpose. The
original purpose of a seed bureau in
Washington was TO develop new
and superior kinds of seeds and send
them to different places throughout
the country to be grown. From the
reports sent in by those who had
received them valuable information
could be secured. The knowledge
that was derived from these eX-
perlments was to be given to the
country at large and the people
were then expected to utilize what
eves advantage might come from
these scientific experiments. In,
stead of using this division or bu-
reau of the department of agri-
culture as originally intended, it has
become gigantic graft by which
congressman try to popularze them
selves by furnishing free, at the
governments expense, garden seeds
to their cOnstituents-the same kind
of seeds that are on sale in every
store in the country.
