q There is practically no limit to the variety
of work that can be done with a Singer
Sewing Machine Whether for the finest
embroidery, the plainest home sewing or
the most elaborate tailoring, the Singer IS
equally efficient.
q Every woman takes pride in having these
things, but if they be her own f2rldiworll,
the satisfaction is complete, because her
own personality is reflected in every seam.
q The woman who uses Singer may have
everything in needleHork she can desire
She is better dressed ct much less cost:
her children are clothed according to her
own taste and ideas; she has attractive
table linen, and an amending supply of
dainty underwear.
q Moreover, she is free from the worry
and delay which always comes with the
use of a ''cheap'' machine.

TEDDY DOES NOT TERRIFY
HIM.

Mr.. Bryan has bearded the lion in
his den, the Douglas in his hall. The
great Theodore is not too big for him to
meet face to face, nor to engage in COM
bat.
Mr.. Roosevelt, without any proof but
the assertion of certain Mr. Monnett
of Ohio, who was in 1896 its Attorney
General, but was repudiated by his
own party, has stated that Gov. G. n.
Haskell of Oklahoma, was at one time
connected with the Standard Oil Co.,
and whilst so had attempted to bride
him, Monnett, to dismiss certain suits
against the Standard Oil Co. then PEN
ding in Ohio, the same offense just
proven on Senator Foraker. This charge
on Monnett's statement, has been re-
peated by the celebrated sBill'' Hearst.
Haskell denies the charge, and says it
is base and malicious lie. On the
strength of these statements by Mon
nett and Hearst, Mr.. Roosevelt has at
tackled the character of the whole DEM
ocratic party, Mr.. Bryan and the Den
yer convention. Mr.. Bryan sent Mr..
Roosevelt on last Tuesday a lengthy
telegram which we publish in another
| colum.
| This is about the third time the
mighty Theodore has opened his mouth
begging the country to elect his man,
and the belief is that he will be COM
PEELED, if he pulls him through, to take
the stump in his behalf, since Taft can
not do much stumping in his own. 1t
comes with bad grace from the Repub-
lican party to cry out against Haskell,
when Dupont, one of the national COM
mitteemen is actually under indictment
for violations of the federal laws, and
Aldrich is the acknowledged agent of
Standard Oil in the Senate.

WRECK ON THE
SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Fireman Oliver Petrie Killed
Accident Caused by Open
Switch.

Southern Pacific passenger train
No. was wrecked Saturday night
near Monroe street in New Orleans at
9:l5 p. m. shortly after leaving the
depot. The engine, mail car and
baggage coach left the tracks of the
Illinois Central Railroad. The en-
glne turned over and pinioned fireman
Oliver Petrie and it required the use
of saws, axes and picks to release
him. He was taken at once to the
Charity Hospital where he died almost
as soon as he was laid on the opera
ting table. Engineer Robert Tanner
held to the window of the cab and
and escaped with buses about the
face. The train was running about
fifteen miles an hour and the cause OF
the accident was an open switch. The
fact that the engineer applied the air
brakes as soon as he realized what
had happened, undoubtedly prevented
q more disasterous wreck.

i Lafayette, La, Aug. I, 1908.
To the Council:
| Gentlemen:-I herewith transmit to
your Honorable body, without my
signature, or approval, ordinance to
amend anti-gambling ordinance
adopted on March End, 1908. My
reason for vetoing this Ordinance is
believing that the original ordinance
was adopted after careful considers
ton and mature deliberation, and to
amend same now to the extent pro-
posed would be unwise,. and practi-
,cally annull the object and purpose
of the original ordinance.
i hope that after your Honorable
body will have considered this inn
portant matter more carefully you will
agree with me and sustain the veto.
Very respectfully.
! CHAS. o. MOUTON.

Saturday morning a gasoline stove
at the residence of Mr.. W. j. Shows

looked as if the can which held the
gasoline, and which had just been
filled, would explode. By quick work
Mr.. Shows succeeded in getting the
can outdoors, and it exploded almost
at the instant it struck the ground.
Fortunately the explosion caused no
damage. The walls of the room
caught fire, but were extinguished with
buckets. The affair was very ex-
