With all the advantages of
youth, education and good looks
and no vocation other than the
enjoyment of wealth, the hero of
our present story chose rather
TO sacrifice his ease and COM
fort on the altar of his duty as a
citizen. His city called him to
save her from spoiiafion and
corruption, and he responded to
the call. To lure hin, from the
path of right came the seduc-
lions Of love and the claims of a
revered parents memory allied
with the mighty forces at the
command of political and finan-
ciaI maiefacfors. The Jirmness
with which the man of the
hour" singled ont for The high
est post in u great municipality
by those who saw in him only
a weakling and tool, resisted
the very forces that had elevated
him for their own purposes t.
official power will be an inspi-
ration to the reader, as it has
been an uplifting force in the
minds of thousands who have
witnessed its theatrical repre-
sentafion.

Only 10 Per Cent of Burnley Crop
This Year

A prss dispatch from Lxington, KY,
says: representatives. of the Society of
Equity have completed a canvass of
the acreage of tobacco which will be
grown in the White Burley district
this season and these reports prac-
tically agree with the estimates of to-
bacco manufacturers, and are that
about 10 per cent of last years acreage
will be planted. According to the re-
port of w. b. Hawkins, of this coun-
ty, who had charge of the Equity
Society canvass, tobacco will be grown
in at least nine counties of the White
Burley district. In Henry and Shelby
counties more than one-half of the
normal crop will be grown. In Old
ham county about two-thirds of a crop
will be planted, and in Washington
and Modison counties scattering crops
will be grown. A small acreage will
also be planted in Mercer county, but
Mr.. Hawkins states that little or no
tobacco will be grown in the other
counties in the White Burley belt.
Last year there was grown in the
belt approximately 16O,OOO,0OO pounds
of tobacco, 10 per cent. of which
the quantity that is being cultivated
this season will amount to about fiji
teen or sixteen million pounds.

MORE PAY FOR United
STATES SOLDIERS
Army Men Finally Win Out in
The House of
Representative

Washington, May S.-Officers and
enlisted men of the army today won
their fight for increased pay when
the house after debate of two
hours agreed TO the conference re-
port on the army appropriation bill.
The appropriation is $7,0O0,O00 for
the purpose, $5,000,000 of which
will go to the enlisted men. Nine
hundred and forty-two officers on the
retired list are also benefited by the
increases. Under the suspension Of
rules bills were passed placing the
Porto Rican regiment of infantry on
permanent basis and authorizing
additional aids in navigation in
light house establishment.
But little progress was made in
the senate to-day on the agricultural
appropriation bill. Senator McCumber
chairman of the committe on pen
sions called the attention of the
senate to the deadlock among con-
ferees on the pension appropriation
bill in the senate amendment re-
quiring a continuance of the pres
ent system of having the pension
fund disbursed through eighteen pen
sion agents located throughout the
country instead of through a single
agent in this city. Many senators
expressed desire that the conference
should insist on the seate amedment.
A resolution was offered by Bur-
kett of Nebraska, naming May 1 as
Mothers day. suggesting that all the
senators officials and employees of
the senate should wear white flow
er in honor of the mothers on that
day.

this new and novel article of battle

about two years ago, and the factory
was then converted into one for the
manufacture of feedstuffs that has
proved profitable and the old Mars

American Milling company. The new

of the cellulose about 200 tons of
