MACKAY IN DENIAL.
President of Postal Teleqraph
Company Declares There
is No Agreement
WITH THE WESTERN UNION
Points to Several Notable Fiqhts e
Substantiate His Statements
That War is Bitter.

New York, July 10.-Clarence Mac
kay, president of the Postal Telegraph
Cable company, declares that "all this
talk about the Western Union Teie-
graph company and the Postal Tele-
graph Cable company working in har-
mOny is nonsense.
Mr.. Mackay's statements were MADE
in commenting upon the action Of A.
torney General William S. Jackson OF
New York, who asked justice of the
New York state supreme court to ap-
point a referee to secure evidence that
the Western Union and Postal COM
panies have formed a combination m
restraint of competition.
"Competition Fierce at Times"
Mr.. Mackay said:
IF two CON panies ever connected in
the United States these two telegraph
companies are competing and always
! have been. At times the competition
| is even fierce and bitter Every mar-
chant ana manufacturer in the United
States, wherever we reach, will bear
witness 10 the truth of this statement.
I'VE are the only company that eyer
did really compete with the Western
| Union and succeed in doing so
"We are litigating with our rival Ill
over the country in regard to railroad
rights of way. In fact. the tremendous
| fight between the Pennsylvania rail
road and the Western Union was due
solely to the fact that we got that
business away from the Western
Union.
Laying Cables Now.
Mr. Mackey called attention TO the
cable to Cuba which the Postal com
pany is now laying, to its Atlantic ca
bles. land lines. and new route
which, he said the company is about
to construct through the Nevada gol,
fields to. the Pacific coast as evidence
of that company's competition with tn,
Western Union.

institutes, send to each two or three
day institute, one specialist, and one

general manner some part or parts of
the work being done at the college ani

an agricultural Extension" man as
may be preferred.

ing it to the dean and his advisors to

Senator Pettus, Library.

The late Senator Pettus of Alabama
was a "Forty-niner," going overland
to California in the early days and en-
gaging in placer mining. He took with
him on that long and tedious journey
three books, the Bible, Shakespeare
and Burns poems.
He said of them at one time not
long since: 81 read the Bible from
cover to cover; 1 read the side notes;
l read the captions of the chapters;
learned great parts of it by heart, and
1 haven't forgotten them yet. learned
many of Burns poems by heart and
much of Shakespeare in the same way,
too" Such reading of these three
books was an education in itself. 1t
is not likely that many miners en-
gagged in that search for wealth spent
their leisure in as profitable a way.

FIVE MEN AND A BIG GREEN
AUTO INVOLVED IN GOTHAM
LOVE AFFAIR.
MOTHER RECEIVES A WARNING
Young Woman Starts for Church with
Parent, Hears Signal, Kicks Off
Shoes, Vaults Fence and
Is Hurried Away.

New York.-Policemen, firemen, sons
of millionaires, Farmland for H.
Nick. Twombly, a pair of high-heeled
shoes, big green-bodied automobile,
loud cries and a frantic mother were
all involved in the elopement of Miss
Agnes McMullen, of Simna Hall, a
fashionable apartment house on One
Hundred and Twenty-second street
Central Office men and the police of
the entire city are now hunting for the
green car in which Agnes eloped with
the farmland, Tim Dervin, and four
sons of millionaires.
Miss McMullen is one of two daugh-
tiers of Mrs. Jane Roxbury, with whom
she lived in a luxuriously appointed
apartment in Simna Hall. She met
Tim Dervin at Summit, N. J., several
months ago. He was working on the
estate of H. NICK. Twombly at Short
Hills. He is said to be an eccentric
young man, who hires himself out in
spectacular fashion, though he has a
large fortune. All of his friends are
young sons of millionaires.

to Mrs. Roxbury and said: Look out
iOr !,dr daughter. She is going to
elope with farmland. He will come
in an automobile"
When Agnes arrived home her
mother charged her with planning to
elope. The girl denied it Her moth.
er felt that prayer would do the girl
a lot of good, and suggested that they
go to church next morning for early
mass.
The girl prepared an elaborate toilet
and was in sprightly mood when heI
mother signified that she was ready tc
go. Hand in hand the mother and
daughter proceeded west on One Hun
dred and Twenty-second street. Sud
denly shrill whistle rang out across
lots. Agnes glanced over her shoulder
and saw the body of the green car neal
the corner of One Hundred and TWEEN
ty-third and Broadway. 1t had beer
waiting there since six o'clock with en-
gines pounding and exhaust throbbing
burning up gasoline like an oil-fet
foundry.
"Oh, mother, darling. good-by," ex
claimed the girl, wrapping her mother

Sermon in a Few Words.

We are very much impressed by
something we saw and heard while
passing along the street a few even
ings since. A young girl was stand
ing in front of store, and near her,
with a hang-dog expression on his
face, was young STRIPPING of boy.
AS we passed the two, the girl said to
the boy: ANY one who speaks of my
father as the old man is not worthy
of my respect" From the tone of her
voice, we knew that the girl spoke
from the impulse of a moment, but
there was whole sermon in her ut
terance. We don't know the girl, but if
she lives she will develop into a noble
womanhood, and the world will be
the better for her having lived in it.
And the boy, if he has any redeeming
qualities in him, will profit by the les
son given him in that one sentence
