Ever since Thomas Hueston de.
feated Jerome Keogh in the pool
match in New York he has been talk
ing of getting match with Alfred De
Orc, former pool champion of the
world and his remarks on the Cuban's
capabilities in the line of pool play
ing have been such that at last he got
rise out of De Orc. The Cuban has
been employed in & billiard academy
in st. Louis and has given little at
tention to pool for some time past,
but he feels confident to be able to
defeat the champiUA and claims the
title was taken from him by Hueston
on the flimsiest excuse of forfeiture
De Orc says he will play Hueston if
the stakes should be of good SIZE No
one was more surprised over Keogh's
defeat than De Oro for he says he
has always considered the Buffalo
hard opponent, since that player gave
him one of the hardest games he ever
played. Hueston's victory does not
change De Oro's opinion, however,
and he announces he stands ready to
meet Hueston for $4,000 or better a
side, the game to be played In st.
Louis.

SPOONFR'S SUCCESSOR.

If the conservative republican
forces of the state should support
any one of the half dozen candidates
who aspire to rattle around in the
seat now occupied by Senator
Spooner, all sorts Of criticism would
result. but nothing of this kind will
happen.
The candidates are all avowed re-
formers, OF more or less virulent
type, and one OF them will win out.
If there was any sentiment con
nected with the game, Uncle Ike
Stephenson would be elected. not
because of his craftsmanship or
marked ability, but as a reward for
faithful yellow-dog service.
The old gentleman is close to the
edge Of time, and it is now or never
with HIM. Two years would satisfy
a lifelong ambition, and give him a
title as he approaches the pear
" gates. The people in Grant
county recognized this fact, and en-
dorsed him by primary vote.
Lenroot has forty years ahead of
him. and if he continues to annoy
the body polite persistently, he will
land something in the course of
time. Davidson, Cooper and Esch
are comparatively young men wear
ing shoulder straps we'll up to the
measure of craftsmanship ability.
What more fitting tribute to a
long and expensive career, than a
seat in a quiet nook under the
shadow of the capitol. Uncle Ike
deserves it, but the chances are he
won't get it.

SENATOR SOONER.

To the men who believe In Sena-
tor SpOOner's honesty, and thew
represent the masses, it is not diff
cult to understand why he resigned
when he did. Had no explanation
been offered by the senator, it would
still be easy to account for his ac-
ton.
Senator Spooner had long enjoy
ed the highest honor possible for
his constituency to confer. Had
the party in his state been har-
uonious, the presidential possibility
would have been within his grasp
but conditions rendered this inn.
possible. His salary was stipend
compared to his ability to earn
money In private life, and his ex-
salted position made him the target
sOE malcontents and office-seekers
There was nothing ahead of him
Dat vexation and worry, and at his
age, It was the most natural thing
for him to retire. He is at liberty
now to enter any field which he NAV
select, and it is safe to say that he
viii occupy a place in the front
'csnk Of his profession.
His name will 1--we in history as
one Of the great statesmen of his
day and generation, and a credit TO
the state which loved and honored
aim so long.

THE VALUE OF TODAY.

The yesterdays are d cad; the to
morrows are unborn; it Is today
alone that Is ours. that is ever with
us and that makes up our lives and
eternity as grams Of sand make up
the boundless beaches of the seas.
Born between two heartbeats and
dying as instaneously; ever end
ing only to begin again; filling the
space between the lilnitless past
and limltless future without ever
merging into either; passing with
the swiftness Of a weaver's shuttle
and like it fashioning the fabric of
our lives; dropping one by one into
the ocean of time as precious pearls
might slip from silken cord into
some fathomless lake as unfalter-
ing in its fight as is the motion of
the earth on its axis and ever bear
ing our life with it from one etern-
ity to another-there is nothing
more real, nothing more elusive
than this period of time which we
call today"
Life for today is but an epitome
of a lifetime. We wake in the
morning with no knowledge of
where our souls have been wander
ing while the senses slept; with
fresh vigor and interest we enter
upon the occupations of our daily
work and fulfill our duties with an
interest that begins to fail as the
evening shadows lengthen; as dark
ness deepens, WEAKNESS comes up
on US and at last we are glad to lay
aside our work and cares and TO
surrender ourselves to the sleep that
spirits our souls back again into the
unknown.
Each day has its own allotted task
no more. 1t is only when we go be-
yOnd that which is given us for the
day and force our mind aud body to
do things not worth while: when
we are not content to bear the evils
of the day but harass ourselves with
anticipating those the future NAV
bring; when we are not satisfied
with the daily bread" for which
one wiser taught US to pray. but
strive to lay up useless surplus to
leave behind; when the pleasures
that were given us to enjoy in
wholesome moderation degenerate
into wild excess-it is only then
that outraged nature takes revenge
for the neglect of her laws, and
sanitariums and lunatic asylums
are filled with victims of i'll reguIat-
ed lives.
Today is small space-onIy
lightning flash in the dark. But of
all the uncharted ocean of eternity
1t IS all that is really ours.
Today exacts but little of us; but
as we do that little we'll or ill we do
weave the warp and wool of our
success or failure in life.
The duties of today are small, but
as our todays end into month. year
and lifetime, our daily needs ac-
cumulate into mighty forces for
good or i'll.

MAY END JURY COMMISSIO1I
Body Is Now Subject of Attack from
all Sides.
Claim Made That Juries Drawn Since
1908 Are IllegaI-Suit Begun
10 Wipe Out the Com
mission.

Milwaukee. April 6.-t1rand and
rptit iuries drawn since 1903 have
not been legal. This fact was made
public when Judge Brace in the mu-
nicipal court ordered new panel
drawn The fact was then brought
ont that all juries had been Illegally
drawn for several years because the
Jury commission intruSted this work
to a clerk. contrary to the law. which
intended that no one except the mem
berS Of the commission shall know
who are chosen as jurors. The prac
tice of employing a clerk TO dO the
clerical work which the law says must
be done by the commission grew up,
ii is stated, under a decision of the
late Judge Johnson.
The effect OF Judge Braces ruling
on cases which have come up in the
past three years will be serious, While
persons convicted and who have paid
fines or served sentences will have no
redress, it is claimed, others may plead
the Illegally drawn grand juries in bar
of prosecution. This will affect nearly
100 indictments returned by grand
juries since 1908, where the persons
involved have not been tried. There
are a number of cases now ready for
trial on indictments charging grating
which, it is said. are not now worth
the paper they are written on.
Judge Brace. i'm his ruling, said no
reflection was made on the commits
siOners, who had been working under
a wrong construction Of the law. That
construction was in error The jury
commission consists Of Major Charles
A. AnsOn Charles r. Trump and Hu-
bert Schooner. Major Arson said, re-
garding the practice Oe the commits
sion, there was nothing illegally done
except the employment Of a clerk 70
relieve the commissioners of clerical
work. Mr.. Schooner confirmed this
statement and added that bill had
been prepared for Introduction in the
legislature providing for clerk for
the commission.
Milwaukee, April Snow that an
opening has been made the jury com
mission is being attacked from al
sides. In addition to the allegations
that juries were illegally drawn
through the work being done by for
mer Chief Cerk of the Courts Weber
instead of the commission, an attack
is now made on the commission itself
on the ground that the law creating
Il Is unconstitutional.
w. J. Turner has commenced an
action to wipe out the commission en-
tircly, which. should it be successful
and the contentious raised maintained.
would also wipe out not only all the
indictments returned by juries in Mil
waukee but would affect all cases
over the state The suit is based on
the same ground as was taken in the
attack on the school board, namely.
that the commissioners are appointed
by the judges, who are state officers.
while the law intends that they shall
be appointed by the county board. who
are officials Of the county. The SUI
preme court decided for the conten
ton i'm the case of the school board
