And the smile grows bright that
wreathes her brow,
For she knows her mother will come.

LINCOLN. BRECKINRIDGE
To Clasp Hands Under Time HOnOred
Motto on Seal.

The likeness of the great Common
er. Henry Clay, l. not to displace
the picture of the late Gov. William
Goebel upon the official checks of the
State Of Kentucky after all. Gov.
Wilson yesterday notified State
Superintendent of printing, j. W.
Hedden TO rescind the order for he
picture Of Clay. He said that he
had decided to adorn the checks with
engraving of the great seal Of
Kentucky.
The Governor has designed new
figures for the seal, which he believes
will carry out to a better extent the
two figures grasping hands, under
the motto, United, We Stand !;
Divided; We Fall. The Governor
says that the seal was adopted in the
days of the Wings and old Democrats !;
now the Wing party is no more, so
he believes that seal with a more
modern application would prove more
suitable. Accordingly he has made
inquiries Of leading citizens and
students, and says that the concen-
sus of opinion was that the late
General John c. Breckenridge could
stand as more typical Democrat,
than anyone thought Of OF course
Abraham Lincoln, a native Of Ken
lucky, was chosen as the Republican
The new seals will bear the two male
figures shaking hands under the
time-honored motto, and one Of the
men will have the features of Gener-
al Breckenridge, while the other will
be that of President Lincoln.
The Governor believes that such
plan will meet the entire approval Of
all the people of the Commonwealth.

Gerhard of New York in a suit brought
by John B. Gleason of counsel for Thaw
in his first trial for the murder of Stan
ford White, in which the jury disagreed.
to recover 1900 balance alleged to be
due for counsel fees.
The action Is brought in the United
States circuit court for the southern dis
trict of New York. Thaw is described in
the papers as citizen and resident of
Pennsylvania. and his domicile is re-
ferred to as in the city Of Pittsburg in
that state.
Gleason's complaint Is long typewrit-
ten document which makes several SEN
sational charges against Thaw. He &C
cuses him of fraud and Misrepresentation
and declares that on account Of state
ments made to him by Thaw. which he
subsequently found to be untrue. he was
prevented from collecting the $50 600 bal
ance due him from Thaw's mother Mary
c. Thaw, at the time of the first trial,
when she was willing to pay 1t.
Gleason's action does not affect Thaw's
bankruptcy proceedings. The former has
a right to sue to establish his claim,
which will further be subject to the rou-
tine procedure in all bankruptcy cases.
The charges of fraud or misrepresenta-
lions, II established. will not give Glea-

JAPAN ADMITS POVERTY.
Exposition Not. Abandoned, But
POSTPONED to Insure Success,

TONIC. August 29.-The government
financial policy decided upon by the cab
met yesterday involves the eurtailment
of expenditures by 100000 900. of which
30 per cent will be taken from the army
budget and 10 per cent from that of the
navy.
The postponement of the international
exposition. Premier Katsura says. is not
purely due to financial reasons, but owing
to the fact that the work of preparation
has been insufficient, and it will be quite
impossible to make a creditable exposi-
ton within three years on an appropria-
ton of 100000.
Therefore, as the necessary appropria-
tion will be inconsistent with the eco
nomical plans of the cabinet for the next
five years. it is wiser for the government
to admit that fact than to fail in making
q complete success of the exposition.
which. it has been decided. will be held
in 1917. the anniversary of the accession
of the emperor.
In this manner Japan admits her finan-
cial stFingency. but insists on the utmost
economy and depends on foreign coun-
tries accepting the situation as an act OF
