Typical Soldier of Fortune.

Though many of the descendants Of
the illustrious Edgar Allan Poe inherit
some of his illustrious instincts, it is
probably more marked in the case of
johnnie" Poe. who can we'll be styled
a typical soldier Of fortune. Mr.. Poe
belonged to the great Fifth regiment
of Baltimore and served during the
war with Spain, after which he went
to the Philippines, where he was Of
fered a commission for efficient work.
For the second time, however, he re-
fused the honor and remained a priv.
ate. At the expiration of his term he
came back to this country and wan
dered to the famous Death valley and
from there to the Tonopah district,
from which he vas lured in the late
fall by the call of the gridiron.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, It is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fneness Of the fabric IL
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
lance Starch. as It can be applied
much more thinly because Of It's great
or strength than other makes.

orator IN the station and had attached 20
his head the usual telephone receiving APP

wireless apparatus. The result WIS a se-
we're shock. which partially paralyzud tho
enlisted man, who was carried TO the hos
pital where he promptly recovered, with
the exception that It was found mat he
had completely lost the power of speech.
The physicians we're unable TO rcndcr re-
lief beyond holding out the hope Of a
restoration Of speech at some future time.
The electrician left the hospital and sub
iscted himself to another, feebler, electric
shock under the same conditions as the
original shock. lie found that This treat
ment promptly and completely restored
the power OF speech. Neither the doctors
nor the electrical experts are able 20 fur
n,sh an explanation. excepting that tho
physicians are inclined 10 the view that
the first shock acted on the center Of

shock stimulated the recovery, which
would have come IN any event probably IN

SET BACK TO
THE TAFT BOOM
Tom JOhnsOn'S Victory in
Cleveland SO Regarded
in Washington


WASHINGTON. Nov. 6.-Tho re-
suits of yesterdays elections were re-
ceived by the administration with en-
tire equanimity. AS the issues We're
almost altogether Of local character,
the outcome in the various states and
municipalities can have little effect on
National politics.
The only contest in which President
Roosevelt public manifested a personal
Interest was that in Cleveland. but Il Is
not believed that he is greatly dis-
appointed TO have Burton back In
congress There Is no doubt that the
President was anxious to wrest Cleve-
land from the Democratic clutches and
that he thought Burton was the man
TO do it
Apparently The national bearing Of
tho cleveland campaign was largely
obscured by the fierce local fight on
'he street rail way fare question.
Nevertheless Johuson's victory Is re-
.garded here as a considerable set back
to the Taft BOOM
Tammany's triumph In New York
was a foregone conclusion. The alli-
ance between Parsons and Hearst had
been severely condemned by Repub-
ncans OF the administration generally.
While reftaining from any public eN-
preston on the subject, President
Roosevelt IS known TO have regarded
lit as a grave political hlunder. lie
