TAKE NO SUBSTITUTED
CHAMP CLARK FACE READER
Mans Character Written in His
Features, Says the Missourian.
Extract From Recent Speech
Made by Congressman
Q From This District.

Washington, Feb. Though Champ
Clark is noted for bis versatility Of
mind and quaintness Of bearing, it
has not until to-day become known
that be is a phrenologist. He took
bis colleagues, of the House and the
country at large, into his confidence
to-day while making a memorial ad-
dress on the late Senator German and
told them about 1t. And he Is no or
dinary sort of amateur either, none Of
your perpatetic faker pbrenologist, but
one Of the real things, an educated
scientist.
"Early impressions are never effaced,
he said. "My father was an enthusiast
touching phrenology and physiogno-
my. He was an omniverous reader
and among the periodicals In which
he delighted and which he recon-
mended to me as mental pabulum in
my youth was the chronological jour
nal published by Fowler and Wells.
My favorite teacher In the common
schools was a professional phrenoliglst.
With such early guides 1t was In.
evitable that I should all my days be
q student OF the human face devine.
1t is a must fascinating recreation.
While have long since abandoned
the theory that one may determine
what is inside a mans head by feeling
the bumps on the outside, still ad-
here to the belief that there Is much
in both phrenology and physiognomy.
God writes a mans character and
capacity In bis face. To some bis
hand writing is perfectly legible, to
others it is an inscrutable mystery.
Alexander Pope uttered an important
truth when he said, "The proper study
Of mankind is man. "And then, having
told OF bis education and predictions
along the lines Of the significance OF
the human face divine, he branched
of on the subject of personal pulchri-
tude as an asset In public life. Sem
ator German, he said, was the handsom-
est man, with two exceptions, he ever
saw. BE continued; 'Some men are
so ugly and ungainly that 1t is a posi-.
tive advantage to them as public
speakers by reason of the pleasurabls
surprise which their eioquence or logic
or learning excites in their hearers.
Others are so prepossessing that they
have won the hearts of their audience
before they have opened their mouth.

Weather il Severe.

ST.. PAUL, Feb. 6-Thirty-two de-
grees below zero was registered by
government thermometers yesterday.
Most of the other thermometers went
TO 30 below. Zero whether has pre-
vailed for seventeen days.
In North Dakota 30 degrees below
has been common and there has been
much suffering. Railroads have been
badly demoralized. For several day:
past the main lines Of the 500, Great
Northern and Northern Pacific have
been blocked and many Of
the branch lines have been at stand
still for weeks. This has caused coal
famine in many North Dakota towns
There have been reports of many
people freezing to death, but these re
ports have been denied from Dokots
sources 1t is, however, admitted BY
railroad managers that the opening ol
spring will tell some grewsOme tales Of
suffering, starvation and death.

Fat Hogs.


J. L. Carpenter had "hog. killing
timen at his farm last Monday. -Four
of his neighbors helped him butcher

One was an o. | @. hog weighing 805
pounds and it was actually SO fat that
1t could't see to walk In being driven
to the scaffold it bumped against the

that happened to be on It's route. Aa-
other was Duroc Jersey hog weigh
ing 625 pounds and the other two were

Bryan recently concluded an arrange
ment with certain magazine TO be-
gin q series of PARTICLES at once put

During this period Bryan agrees to

thus take the center OF the stage as

that no politician would undertake,

]. +. (Diok)Smlth, says the Fulton
Gazette, hasa 3-year old steer on the
Threlkeld farm on Richland which
has a vigorous constitution. The
steer stumbled into the door Of an ice
house last Saturday night and fell 10
feet into the pit. The ice-house was
filed with water which reached his
side and he stood in this 36 hours
without being much the worse for bis
experience. He was discovered last
Sunday night and next morning Mr..
Smith went out to the farm expecting
to find him dead. Finding him alive,
Mr.. Smith fixed BLOCK and tackle in
roof OF the ice-house and hoisted the
brute to the surface. IL is now thriv-
ing as well as its mates.

Dead at Throttle.

Philadelphia, Feb. 6.-The Congress
sional limited train on the Pennsyl
yannia railroad ran through this city
tonight at terrific speed with the en-
gineer, Joseph Tomss dead at the
throttle.
The train makes two stops in this
city one at West Philadelphia and the
other at North Philadelphia. Shortly
after leaving West Philadelphia the
fireman, Harry Michner, noticed the
speed was unusual.
The train swayed as 1t rounded the
curves, but the engineer gave no sig.
nails. Michner called to Toms, but
received no answer, and when the
train rushed through Fairmount Park
and neared North Philadelphia, the
fireman climed over the big boiler into
the engineers cab, to fad Toms dead,
with his hand on the throttle His
head was hanging out Of the cab win
dow and bad been crushed by striking
ing some object along the road.
Michner stopped the tain at North
Philadelphia, where another engineer
was secured, and the train proceeded
to New York. The passengers were
not told OF the accident.
