That Gov. Rroward will call a
special session of the legislature
within the next few weeks seems to
be now quite generally believed.
The voice of Claude L'Engle has
been heard in the land, and Claude
says it will have to be did. Miss
Jefferson Bell, the brilliant young
woman correspondent for several
state papers, and who has official
connection with the administration,
has also voiced this opinion, and she,
too, presumed to speak by the card.
The reason assigned by Claude
L Engle is 1.-The failure of the legis-
lature to act in complete conformity
with special message sent by the
governor on May 29th," aud which
failure to act in 'complete conformi-
ty," in case no extra session be call
ed to correct the mistake, will result
in the holding up of all special APP
preparations. This may, or may not
be the real reason the governor has
in mind for calling an extra session,
fUr there are others, And one Of the
most pressing from an admiuistra-
ton point of view is the fact that its
political capital was somewhat un-
settled by the regular session. Next
year is to witness general election.

Fortune Founded on Nerve.

One day the Mellon Bank in Pitts
burg was amazed to receive from an
unknown man signing himself III. c..
Frick" a letter requesting the loan of
$4,000. He had very little to offer
in the way of security, the writer said
but he pledged his word that if the
loan was made 1t should be returned
with interest.
The audacity of the request interest
ed the banks head, and he sent a
trusted agent to find out about the
man Frick. When the agent made
his report the bank decided to make
the loan.
The $4,000 was the foundation Of
the colossal fortune Of Henry Clay
Frick. Not only did he return the
principal with interest, but the busi-
ness which he subsequently gave the
Mellon Bank was worth hundred times
the amount of the original loan.-Pitts

Cats Board at Home Expensive.

New York correspondence Pitts
burg Dispatch: Many women each
summer, rather than trust their cats
to an ordinary caretaker's neglect,
have carried them on long trips away
from the city, thereby burdening them
selves with many extra cares. To
board ones pets at some exclusive
home for cats Of aristocratic affilia-

but 1t doesn't always pan out salts

its board, and the owner was greatly

for $25 a week for it's keep. The total
includes 81 a day for baths and Is

In high degree the expert meteorolo-

the Weather Bureau should contem-

how is IL generated? Do storm clouds

Another man, evidently the captain
of the party, stood at little distance
as they lifted the chest out of 4 the
boat. He had a cane in one hand and
lighted lantern in the other, although
the moon was shining as bright as
day. He wore jack-boots and a hand
