ever seen fairies. At first fearing TO
be laughed at they secuted the idea,
but one Of them told the following:
"On Sunday he was returning after
mass aud stood with a Srlend named
Sullivan on the bridge OF Killal0e.
Looking toward a potato field on the
slope Of the rising ground 70 the east
OF the town. a field which he was able
30 point out from the boat, he saw

people, one being distinctly taller than

blurred, then took distinct shapes and
began TO play the national game of
hurley among the bare potato rigs.

but fur some time his friend could not
see them, then said he could, and they
watched the game together for a time
Then the sun went lp and the fairies,
moving toward tie iss, as II return

The President Is Both Abused and

 New Haven. Conn. Oct. 31.-The Economic Club of this city, an organ ization of business and professional men and which includes in it's member ship college professors and lawyers, listened tonight to a discussion of the question, 'Is the policy of President Roosevelt against capital" by Henry Clews. banker, and John W. Alling, att torney, of this city.
 Mir. filling attacked the policy Of the President in strong terms, particu- larly with reference to the, packing in- dustry, the Presidents ruling of the Standard oil and the railroad rate ques- tion.
 MT. Clews said in part:
 .'Whatever President Roosevelt has done, he has done to promote the pub- lie good. Whether his speeches have helped to cause distrust or not. l con tend that he had no intention of mem acing the prosperity of the country in denouncing and instigating the prose- cution of law breaking railway cor porations and Industrial trusts.
 'WhiIe he was Instrumental in turn ing on the light, he was not responsible for the abuse of power which the light revealed and 1t is the revelation of graft and illegal methods on the part of certain railway and other corpora tions through the acts of their irre- sponsible managers and controlling canitafists. that has undermined public confidence In many of them. The fact that in nearly every instance of gov- arnnent prosecution the guilt of the narties accused has been proven on their trial justities President Roosevelt in his actioon."

WARDELL C0NFESSES
SAYS HE DELIBERATELY KILLED
 HIS WIFE.
After the story Was Told, the Man Begged To He Tried For HKur- deE, As He Wanted To
 Dle.

New York, Oct. S1-After being con- victed of manslaughter in the first de- gree in aiding and abetting his wife to commit suicide. James Wardell. 24 years old, confessed today in the court of general sessions that he deli5erate- ly Killed his wife. After he had killed her, he said. he fired a bullet into her dead body to give the impression that she had ended her own life with re- volver.
 When wardell was tried last week, he said that his wife had committed suicide. When he was taken before the court today for sentence. however. Wardeil, through his attorney, made . complete confession. Ills mind had been completely upset by his wife's misdoinss, he said. and when she sug- gested that they die together, he read fly agreed. He placed the gas tube In his wife's mouth. turned on the gas and when she was dead his courage failed and he dared not end his own life. Then he thought to shield htrn- self by firing a shot into her brain to make 1t appear that she had commit ted suicide.
 When the attorney had hnished his sto, Wardell broke in with:
 .FYes, that's all true: that's the way if was. Try me for murder; I want to die. I want to get out of 1t all and away from 1t all"
 Sentence was deferred pending a de- cision as to whether an examination into Wardell's sanity shall be made

Telephone Company Required To Give Bond To Cover Damages City Might Receive Awaiting

Chattanooga. Tenn. Oct. 3f--Tsmp- orarY injunction has been granted to the Cumberland Telephone Conpany bv Federal Judge Charles D. Clarke, preventing the City of Memphis from enforcing a recent ordinance passed by the City Council and reducing the Cnm- berland Telephone Company's rates.
 In granting the injunction, the court places the Cumberland Telephone Company under a ss.000 bond to cover any damages the City of Memphis might receive while awaiting the tinal settlement of the suit. This litigation started some time ago and the City of Memphis and the Cumberland Tele- phone Company have been fighting ever since the company raised its rates " per month on telephones.

DECLARES AGAINST
 HURLEY TOBACCO
Resolutions Are Adopted By National
 Tobacco Growers Association.

Shelbyvil1e, ky, Oct, S1.-The Na- tional Tobacco Growers Association to- day unanimously adopted resolutions declaring against the raising of crop of burIey tobacco next year
 The adoption of the resolution as to non-production of tobacco in the bur ley district sets at rest all doubts as to the attitude of the national asso- citation. It was pointed out that while there is an over supply of tobacco in the burIey district, there is a scarcity of the weed in the dark district, and reproduction would do no good there.
 The same is true of various other parts of the country to such an extent that unanimity on the part of the members of the National Tobacco Growers Association could not be se- cured on the non-production plan, and the project would be a failure as a national movement. As the situation now stands without prospect of change, the only non-producing district will be the burley district, comprising over thirty counties in Kentucky, a few in Indiana and one or two in Ohio.

MIR. TAFT TO VISIT BERLIN. Sails From Manila on
 Monday. TO BE GUEST OF EMPEROR Declines Invitations From All Countries Except Germany. Roeseveit's Answer to Secretary Tafes Plea for Extension of Time on
 Trip Not Yet Made
 Public.

Washington, Oct 31----There are in- dications that Secretary Tafts decision to recur to his original itinerary and sail from Manila for viadivostok on his homeward journey Monday. instead of the week following. as he suggest ed to the President. was after all based upon fnternational and not domestic consideration.
 Soon after 1t became officially known that he intended to return to America by way of Siberia and Europe, the foreign offices of various countries which he would probably traverse be- gan to interest themselves in his itin- erary. Diplomatic representatives of some European countries have already been making inquiries in Washington as to the itinerary preliminary to ex- tending to him formal invitations to visit various capitals.
 It has been found quite impossible for an official of his rank to visit one European country as the guest of the sovereign without visiting the cap- itals Of other countries through which he must pass on his homeward Journey. It Is believed here that the decision of the administration that acceptance of Invitations from these capitals would be inexpedinet, has led 60 a change in Secretary Tsft's plans which will en- able him to decline all of them for the German emperor.
 The interest in the itinerary by the foreign countries was not confined to Europe, but extended to Asia. and, finding that the Emperor of Japan was about to entertain Secretary Taft. the Chinese Empress caused inquiries to be made to learn whether the Secre- tary could not be induced to visit the Celestial Capital Although obliged by the route taken by the steamer upon which he travelled, to visit Shanghai, and thus land upon Chinese soil, the Secretary declined the imperial invi- tation on the ground that it's accept ance would prevent him from redeem ing his promise to be present in per- son at the initial session of the Fili- pino Assembly.
 But 1t was otherwise with the Eu- ropean Lsprerfiments Upon Ter vrt;nn informally that Emperor William would be pleased to meet him in Ber- lin, Secretary Taft submitted to Pres ident Roosevelt a plea for an exten- sion of the time allowed for his trip by almost a week. in order to arrive at Berlin when the German Emperor returned there from his visit to Eng land. The application for an extension was received in Washington while the President was in the Louisiana cane brakes. When the answer was return ed and what the nature of 1t was, can not be positively stated.
