tn, Guilty Mind.

Why should a man feel and
look guilty when he picks up
something in the street? Is he
suspicious of himself, or is he
afrai J some onloUker may sus
pect him? Inasmuch as most
men walked with their eyes on
the ground Ia very bad habit
it is uncomfortable that many
of a sidewall procession will miss
seeing bright silver coin.
Some will slyly kick it aside, pass
on a few PAGES and come back to
rescue it. ] saw a man yester-
day stand ten minuets on a half
dollar which he had thus showed
aside before he had the courage
to pick it up. At last, pretend
ing TO tie his shOestring, he got
it and dropped it deftly into his
pocket. Guilt was written all
over his face as he glanced fur
lively around to see If his act
had been detected. Yet the man
was committing no wrong.

KENTUCKIANs WERE INJURED
When Tourist Car Crashed Into a Bump
cr-On Their Way to The
Rife Range.

Cincinnati, O., Aug. IA -Sev,
eral members of the Kentucky
State Guard Rifle team, on their
way TO compete in the contest
at Camp Perry, o., narrowly
escaped fatal injuries when the
tourist car which bore them
crashed into a bumper in Grand
Central station last evening.
Five of them were so badly hurt
that DIR. Kearns, railroad SER
geon, and DIR. Minor, who were
soon on the scene, found a heavy
task before them ministering to
the wounded.
The men most seriously injur-
ed are Capt. Jack Morris, of
Frankfort, internally; Sergeant
Wiley Morris, New hoester, ribs
probably broken; Lieutenant
Foster Helm, Lexington, back
wrenched +; Captain Felix Kerr
rick, Louisville, head and neck
bruised; W. II. Ratchff, Lexing-
ton, cuts on side and right leg.
Capt. Jack Morris is assistant
secretary of state, and it was he
who sustained the most serious
injuries, 1t is though his ribs
are broken and that he is badly
injured internally.
Regardless of their injuries,
the men insisted on proceeding
on Camp Perry to witness the
shot, whether they are able to
participate or not so their car
was attached to the Big Pour
train which left Cincinnati at
$3.50 p. m.

MRS. RUSSELL SAGE,
Nay Prevent Government Preparatory
School.

New York, August Is. 1t is
learned from New York friend
of Mrs. Russell Sage, that she is
thinking seriously Of purchasing
Constitutional Island in the Up
per. Hudson, opposite West
Point, and presenting it to the
United States Government as a
site on which to erect the
worlds greatest military pre-
paratOry school. Mrs. Sage will,
it is said, send a representative
to West Point within a few days
to look into the matter. She
would like to give to West Point
a preparatory school, it is said
where boys, particularly those
from remote places where the
public school are not best, can
receive the preparatory ednca-
ton necessary to pass the rigid
examination required Of all
candidates for cadetships at the
United States Military Academy.
President Roosevelt is said to be
in favor of the plan. The island
can be had for d sum between
$3.50, 1000 and 100000.

defeated them in the second to
the tune of 3 to 0.
The Nebo boys played the Il.

that the club boys had no pitch

Louisville is playing good ball

c nance for Scientists.

Col Battell of the Middlebury Regis
ter is still willing TO give the scientists a
chance TO earn couple thousand dollars
All they have to do is to disprove his
theory of sound. We suppose it's diff
cult matter, and Col Battell says that it
is impossible. Nevertheless, as faint
heart never won fair lady, so also it
never knocked out disputed theory.
Up, scientists. and at 'em. Col. Battell
says:
"Many people inquire of the proprietor
of this paper if he does not receive
answers to the offer of different rewards
from $1,000 to $4,000, made by the paper
to scientists or others, who shall prove
that the undulatory theory of sound is
correct. $500 was also offered in the
Springfield (Mass.) Republican for SINH
lar proof. And we offered several years
ago $4,000 in two of the leading New
York city papers. 1t is hardly necessary
to add that there has never been one
word of answer to any of these offers.
The whole fraternity of scientists see
that it is absolutely hopeless to attempt
to defend this theory against the crti-
csms of it in ELLEN. Directly after
the offer was made in the New York
papers an unusual number of copies Of
the book were ordered we supposed by
those desiring to compete for the prize
but if SO it went no further. "-Burling-

OF those pei sons interested therein; all which

That such of the accretions from cleo
trified corpuscles as are gathered in COM
etary form are perpetually subject to the
conflicting forces of gravitation and light
pressure is visibly demonstrated when.
ever comet approaches the sun with its
tail. full of hydrocarbons, turned out
ward. This phenomenon, which has
long perplexed the wise, is just what
would appear if, as the wanderer APP
proaches the sun, the coarser grains of
solid matter are large enough to resist
the light pressure while the smaller par
ticles are knocked galeywes by the
sunlight, sometimes forming several dis
tinct tails.
The theory offers an easy explanation
of the corona of the sun itself. the beau
tiful floating clouds seen at the time of
an eclipse, which in the absence of
celestial atmosphere have heretofore
passed the wisdom of the astrophysicist
to interpret. How can material clouds
float in no medium but impalpable and
unbuoyant ether?
Arrhenius maintains that the nflamed
corpuscles thrown off from the fiery mass
of the sun are of various sizes and that
the distances to which they are pro-
jected depend entirely on their dame
tiers. Those which are so large that the
attraction of gravitation exceeds the pro-
pulsive power of light naturally drop
back into the glowing chromosphere. A
limited number have precisely the crit
ical diameter. That is to say, their size
is such that the two opposing forces neu
tralize each other and the particles, sus-
pended at considerable height. drift
around the sun in the form of the clouds
that are visible to the human eye on
few occasions in each century The
total weight of the corona is not con-
siderable; it has been estimated at about
IL, 100000 long tons, which hardly ex-
ceeds the amount of coal burned on the
earth in week.
Those particles that have less than the
critical diameter are of course sent scud-
ding to the utmost bounds of the solar
system and beyond.
Unless, that is, they happen to hit one
of the planets in transit. Some of them
reaching the atmosphere of this earth
produce the phenomenon of the aurora
borealis-a celestial analogue of the
stream of light produced in Crookes
tube when electricity is flashed through
it, and easily influenced, as every class
in physics has noted, by the presence of
a magnet.

THE AUTOMOBILE.

The following letter appeared in the
Springfield (Vtl Reporter:
Did you ever in your wanderings note
that now and then, frequently, you will
see an automobile in dark night with
out lamps lighted. Well, you probably
thought that the occupants of the ma
chine were outside the pale of the law,
didn't you? If they happened to have
two little lamps with their number on
lighted, they were all right, regardless
whether they had search lights or not,
This is explained by the fact that the
Secretary of State has made no regula.
tons for the lighting of automobiles and
the matter is left to him by law. was
afraid you were not aware of all this, so
take the liberty of writing you.
Yours truly,

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER IS, 1908.
Roosevelt on Taft.

President Roosevelt's letter to Mr..
Kohrs, of Montana, made public today
is significant evidence that the G. o. P.
is afraid it will lose big portion of the
labor vote. The letter would not have
been written if there had been no such
fear. The writing of such an appeal by
a President, in behalf of one whom he
wishes to succeed to the presidency, is
an unprecedented act, but it does not
come as surprise. Mr.. Roosevelt cares
nothing for presidents, and the predic-
ton has been made recently that he
would not only issue such an appeal, but
would take the stump for Taft later in
the campaign.
Well, why shouldn't he? There is not
much virtue in keeping up a pretense
when the whole country knows it to be
such. Mr. Roosevelt is anxious to have
Mr.. Taft elected--tbe whole world knows
this. Mr.. Roosevelt is an ardent Repub
lican, the leader of the party. He be-
lieves that the welfare of the country is
dependent upon the success of that party.
Why, then, should he remain silent? He
is the President of the whole people, it is
true, but he is a Republican President,
after all, elected as such, and he would
earn the contempt of his political oppon-
ents, as well as that of his associates, if
he should renounce his party. There is
no solid merit in the suggestion that par.
tisanship in his case might obscure his
duty to the whole people. He is not the
kind of President who would neglect
his official duties, or perform them I'M
worthily in the hope of benefiting his
own party at the expense of the other.
1t may have taken moral courage for the
President to disregard the precedent
which would bind him hand and foot
during the campaign, he has plenty of
moral courage, and probably great ma
jority of the people will be glad to see
him exercise it by speaking out frankly
for Taft.
Mr.. Roosevelt discusses Mr.. Taft's atti-
tude toward reforms, railroad and trust
diIu he
sums up much when he says of Mr.. Taft:
"There is no fight for decency and fair
dealing which l have waged in which l
have not had his heartiest and most
effective sympathy and support, and the
policies for which l stand are his policies
as much as mine."
1t cannot be denied that the President
makes a strong plea for Mr.. Taft-a plea
that will have peculiar influence at this
time, when Mr.. Bryan is proclaiming
himself the father and son of Crosse
vetism, and the only person properly
fitted to succeed Roosevelt and carry on
his work. Although there is nothing in
the Presidents letter directly criticising
Mr.. Bryan, the whole document is in
effect Reputation of Mr. Bryan's
claims. To that great body of Ameri-
cans who follow Mr.. Roosevelt with
enthusiasm and devotion, this letter will
appeal with great force.-Wa Washington
