terday at the second annual regatta of the
Hudson River Rowing Association. While the
crews from the NonpaTeil Rowing Club the
Crescent Rowing Club and the Hudson Boat
Club We're competing in the junior four-oared
gig race river steamboat churned up the
water so that all three of the frail boats were
swamped. Fortunately, all of the oarsmen
could swim. and they were 1shed out without
any serious damage being done.
1t was fine day for rowing, and a big crowd
watched the races, all of which were well con-
tested Chief interest centred IN the event for
junior four barges At the first quarter the
Hudson Boat Club was in the lead. Gradually
the Mons began TO crawl up and at the half
mile mark the boats on even terms. The
two crews had hard fight to the finish, the
Mons" getting the verdict aftef a beautifully
rowed race. The Active Boat Club was third
two lengths away.
David McEntee OF the Metropolitan Rowing
Club, had little difficulty in winning the asso-
ciation single shell race The other contestants
were II. Hart, Of the Wyanoke Boat Club, and
]. Haywood, of the Nassau Boat Club. Nc
Entee jumped into the lead soon after the start
and was never headed. winning by about three
lengths.
After the first disastrous start IN the junior
four-oared gig race the crews lined up again.
and this time the was rowed without any
further accident, the Mons winning first hon.

FOR SELFISH ENDS.
The Efforts Being Made by the Ameri.
 can Medical Association.

The Political activity of the Ameri- can Medical Association has become so pronounced as to cause comment in political circles especially as the the avowed purpose of the Doctors of the Regular" or Allopathic school, of which the Association is chiefly com- posed, is to secure the passage of such laws as will not only prevent the sale of so-called Patent medicines, but will restrict the practice of medi- cine and healing to the schools" now recognized. This in many states would prevent the growing practice of Os- teopathy, and in nearly every state would prevent the healers of the Christian Science and mental science belief from practicing those sciences in which the faith of so many intelli- gent people is so firmly rooted.
 The American Medical Association has a Committee on Legislation" and the committee has correspond ents in practically every township - some 16,000 correspondents in all. This committee at the last session of the American Medical Association held in June of this year expressed hope that a larger number of physi- clans than heretofore will offer them selves as candidates for Congress at the first opportunity. In its annual report this Committee said: ITO meet the growing demands of the move ment, however, particularly if the work of active participation in State legislation is undertaken, a larger clerical force must be employed"
 This is almost the first time in the history of the United States that any organized class has frankly avowed the purpose of capturing legislatures and dominating legislation in their own selfish interests.
 The American Medical Association has about 65,000 members of whom 27000 are fully constituted mem- bers" and the rest are members be- cause of their utilization with state or local societies. The Association owns real estate in Chicago valued at $111,- 7S1.91 and it's total assets are $751; 567.S9 Its liabilities, at the time of the annual report which was made at the June meeting, amounted to only $21,906. The excess of assets over liabilities is increasing at the rate of about S30,000 a year, and the purpose of the organization is to dominate the field of medicine, and by crushing all competitions by securing the pas sage of prohibitive legislation, compeA all of the people of the United States to pay a doctors fee every time the most simple remedy is needed.

METHOD IN HIS soLicirUpE.
WIilie's Deep Interest in Piaymate's
 Health Explained.

This story is well in keeping with the spirit of the age, says the New York Tribune. A Bronx man tells it about his little boy. The neighbours young hopeful was very i'll, and Willie and the other youngsters in the block had been asked not to make any noise in the streets. The neighbor's bell rang one day and she opened it to find Willie standing bashfully on her front steps.
 How is he to-day?" he inquired in shy whisper.
 Hes better, thank you, dear, and what thoughtful child you are to come and ask"
 Willie stood a moment on one foot and then burst forth again, I'm orful sorry Jimmy's sick"
 The mother was profoundly touched. She could find no further words to say, but simply kissed him. Made still bolder by the caress, Willie began to back down the steps, repeating at in- tervals his sorrow for his playmate's illness At the bottom step he halted and looked up. "If Jimmy should die" he asked, kin have his drum?"

BANKERS GETTING WISE.
They See Danger in the MaI-Order
 System of Business.

It is only lately that bankers of the west have come to realization that the mail-order system of business has been a serious injury to them, killing off the business of their towns taking out of circulation money that should help swell the local bank deposits and otherwise interfering with town pro. gress
 The trouble has been with many bankers that they failed to consider the buying -g0ods.away-from- home evil as anything of particular concern to them When Farmer Smith would buy draft for $50 or Sl00 to send to Chicago the banker got his ten cents exchange and thought he was that much ahead while the facts re mained that if he could keep the money from being sent from home that $50 of the farmer for the banker might make a dollar or two of profit Ii was only when the catalogue houses started in to solicit deposits of the people of country towns and farm ing communities that the bankers took a tumble.
 Then again some bankers have such an exalted idea of their position in the town that the goods 10 be had from the local merchants are not good enough for themselves and families. and set bad example before the peO pie by sending away themselves for what they desire in the way of staples and luXuries Bankers are conserva tive. and are not forward in making suggestions 10 their patrons as 10 what they should do with their money but in this matter it appears sufficient ly important to justify the exercise of what influence the banker can com mand in behalf of home patronage. 1t is the business of the town and sur rounding country that affords a profit to the bank The greater this volume of business can be made the better for the banker and every interest of the town. and the farmers and other laborerS as well.

PUT IT IN GOOD LIGHT.
One Comforting Thought in the Death
 of the Chickens.

A lady who had recently moved to the suburbs was very fond of her first brood of chickens Going out one af- ternoon she left the household in charge of her eight-year-old boy. Be- fore her return a thunderstorm came up. The youngster forgot the chicks during the storm, and was dismayed after it passed to find that half of them had been drowned. Though fearing the wrath to come, he thought best to make a clean breast of the calamity, rather than leave it to be discovered.
 Mamma" he said. contritely, when his mother had returned, mamma, six of the chickens are dead"
 "Dead!" cried his mother. "Six! How did they die?"
 The boy saw hls chance.
 II think-I think they died happy" he said-Harper's Weekly.

Jeff Davis for President.

Adlai E. Stevenson, of Illinois, form erly vice president of the United States, is fond of telling of an odd ex- perience he had shortly after the civil war. At the time David Davis was much talked of as the man to run against Gen. Grant for the presidency. A conference was held in MT. Steven sons Bloomington residence, many leading Illinois and other Democrats being present. A good deal was said about the possible candidacy of MT. Davis, but no one happened to men, tion his first name. After the confer ence broke up MT. Stevenson drew an old farmer friend into a corner and asked his opinion. The farmer was from the extreme southern end of Illinois He said: Well Adlai, you know I've followed your lead in poli- tics for a good while and I'm going to do it now. But, honest, Adlai, don't. you think it's a leetle mite early to nominate Jeff Davis?" - Chicago Chronicle.

I'M MIG RANTS.

The question of immigrants is no little importance to our people an the following figures will give you an idea of the number in the United States each year: Last fiscal year Italy sent us 5000 immigrants; Rus sia. 255 1000; Hungary, 193,000; Aus tria, 144,00; Great Britain, 111.0O0; Germany, 37,000; Greece, 36,000; Ja- pan, 3O,OO0, and Norway, 22,00O, and so on from other countries. Yet We hear the cry from almost every news paper and from every demagogue politician for more immigrants.
 We have never yet been able to un- derstand why certain classes are so anxious for more immigrants. Here in Birmingham we have Greeks and Italians who get rich in few years and take their money back to the old coun- try. The fact is the only immigrants as rule, who stay with us are the ones who can't get enough of our money to get away on. The country is filling up too fast already-Farmers Union Guide.

Deaths from x-Rays.

The death of pr. Weigel, surgeon of Rochester, from a disease due to the constant use of the X-rays makes the fourth who has lost his lie rom this cause, says the Christian Advo- cate.
 The others were an assistant or Thomas Edison, a Boston physician and woman of San Francisco named Fleischman. In the case of Dr. Vel gel since 1904, when his right hand and all but the thumb and finger of the left hand were removed, there had been four operations in trying to save his life. The first removed a part of the right shoulder; then part of the muscles covering the right breast.
 Mystery completely envelops the cause of death, the disease being un- known to medical science, though 1t is believed to involve some great prin- ciple of life. Dr. Weigel was presi- dent of the Rochester Academy of Medicine and the American Ortho. paedic society.
