wish to correct an impression that
there will be a change in this
store. 1t is merely a change made to
enable me to have an electric sign
for the outside of my store. Ny first
idea was E. Biorklund's Clothing
Store" but found that the number
OF letters in the name would make an
enormous bill for electricity. This
is my idea for adopting the name

~ bear this in mind. You will always

NDoRsE SENATOR KNOX
Pennsylvania Choice for Republican
Presidential Nomination.

WASHINGTON, April 20. - What
part Philauder Chase Knox will play
in the latest comedy drama, THE
Race for the White House" is today
the subject OF much comment among
the soIons of the national capital.
That Senator Knox Will receive the
Endorsement OF the Pennsylvania
state republican convention In Har-
risburg today and will go to Chicago
with the entire strength behind him
Is certainty. AS to whether this
Will make him a strong factor is a
matter regarding which there is much
difference of opinion. Fellow sena-
tors there are who firmly believe that
Knox has at least an equal oppor-
tunity Of securing the nomination for
which so many would-be candidates
are now striving SO vigorously.
Others look upon Knox's candidacy
somewhat in the light OF joke, de-
claring that he has less chance of re-
ceiving the nomination than any other
man prominently mentioned and that
he could not possibly be elected II
nominated.
Senator Philander Chase Knox II
still comparatively young man. He
will celebrate his 55th birthday g

brought him a rich competence in
comparatively few years.
A month after Mr.. Mckinley was
Inaugurated as president, Mr.. Knox
entered upon the duties Of attorney
general OF the United States. After
the assassination of the president,
toward the end of the year 1901, Mr..
Knox, as well as the other cabinet
ministers, remained in Office at Mr..
Rooseyelt's request, and until nearly
the date of his appointment to the
United States senate it was the Penn
sylyanian's legal judgment which
steered the Roosevelt administration
through some of it's most intricate
difficulties,
At his Washington home there is
stately library on the first floor,
but the senator's particular den is in
the top story and is about half the
size of the other room. Its walls are
lined with books, the majority OF
which, however, relate to legal, eco
nomic and political subjects. In win
ter a fine wood fire is kept burning
in the wide chimney place. In this
room Senator Knox holds consulta-
ton with some of the most important
men in the federated republic, and
there, too, he likes to chat in lighter
vein with intimate friends.

Prince Rupert.
VAN COUVER, B. c., April 20
With no work in sight for four or
five weeks and the majority of them
without money, Prince Rupert's pop
ulation is in a bad way, and today
men are eking out an existence by
living on fish and CLANS. In spite of
warnings issued by the Grand Trunk
Pacific and the shipping companies
horde of men descended on the
northern port and camped on every
available site, and at present there
are 1000 men idle in the camp.
Those who have money are manag-

in with little more than their fare,
and 1t is these who are at present
reaping the consequences of the ill

week from today, having been born
In Brownsville, Pa, on May 6, 1858.
He has been well described as a
small. bullet-headed, rOund-faced
man. with long upper lip, straight
jaw and heavy, square chin; dark
blue eyes. by turn twinkling or cold
and penetrating; a figure so short,
compact and symmetrical, so fault

All agree that he Is an able man.
Born in 1853, in the quiet town of

went. He first attended the public
school OF the village. He humorously
declines 10 say nowadays just how
many times he played hockey" or
got sick upon borrowed" green
apples. but It Is plausible tradition
of the MononEahela valley that he
frequently flshed in the river with
others OF his age and that he some
times even hunted pollywogs" along
Dunlop's creek. near Miller's mills.
Later he was not sent, like many
sons OF well-to-do men of western
Pennsylvania. to famous eastern in
stitutiOn, but to the modest Mount
Union college at Alliance. Ohio. a
fact which had its fateful effect upon
the current OF his life. There he was
study-mate of William Mckinley,
whose mother was a poor widow and
who had himself served as mulebey
on an Ohio canal. Mckinley and
