THAW IN JAIL,

Justice MOrschauser, of the Supreme
Court, of Duchess county, N. Y, sitting
at Poua uahkeepsie yesterday in the hearing
granted to the writ Of ha6es corpus
brought with the purpose of freeing
Harry X. Thsw from the Matteawan
State Asylum for the Criminal Insane,
decided that Thsw's side of the case
shopld be entered in Poughkeepsie, and
that the district attorney of New York
county should have the privilege of
bringing out the peoples case 10 court
OF New York county. Pending the com
pletion of the case, Justice Morschauser
ordered that Thsw shall not be taken
back to the asylum, but shall be guard
ed in the Duchess county jsil.
The decision OF the Justice came in
the nature of compromise, and after
John E. Mack, district attorney of
Duchess county, backed by Assistant
District Attorney Francis H. Gsrvan,
from Jerome's Office, had entered a
strong plea that Duchess county could
never stand the expense of hiring ex.
perts, paying commissions to go to the
four corners of the earth aud settling the
railroad fares and board bills of wit
nesses for the State. Justice Mors-
chauser, while denying Msck's motion
to remove the hearing of the suit to free
Thaw TO New York county, promptly
shut down on James G. Graham, Thsw's
new counsel iu the hsbess corpus pro-
ceedings, when he protested against
splitting the proceedings in the case be-
tween two jurisdictions.
Thaw's delight at the turn affairs took
in yesterdays initial hearing in his
fight for freedom from the asylum was
manifest. The imprisonment which he
will suffer under the guardianship of
Under Sheriff John M. Townsend in the
county Jail of Poughkeepsie will be of
such a technical nature that even the
leniency believed to have been shown
him at Mstteswsn until recent protest
wss said to have been registered by Dis
trict Attorney Jerome will suffer by COM
psrision.

WOULD ENTER CATHOLIC
CHURCH.

A dispatch from Philadelphia says
that urgent appeals being made by Rev.
James Paul Francis, the head of cele.
braled order of Episcopal ministers, with
headquarters in New York State, to
bring about the establishment of unisl
church ss branch of the Roman Catho-
lie Church are the latest developments oi
the "Open pulpit" decree.
Rev. DR. Francis, ii IS learned, has
been carrying on negotiations with Apos-
iolic Delegate Falconio through several
Catholic priests in Philadelphis.
On behalf OF bis own order and mar
ried ministers of the Episcopal Church
throughout the country, Rev. Father
Francis has sought terms of Rome where
by they might all enter the Catholic
Church, maintaining a separate branch,
to be known "a the Uniat Church.
"Whst we would like to have" said
Rev. Father Francis 10 substance, sis
branch similar to the Greek Church 10
which the masses are said in English and
in which the priests are permitted to be
married" c9g
This request for unist church was
not made by Rev. Father Francis for the
convenience of his order, as it is cell
bate organization. His desire WAS to
have church established In conjunction
with the Catholic body so as to permit
Episcopal ministers who disbelieve in the
"Open pulpit canon and yet are mar.
ried TO enter the Catholic Church.
While it is not known that any deci-
sion has as yet been given to Rev.
Father Francis, it was said by an suthor-
tstive source that the Pope would not
consider such proposal, ss it is against
all the principles of Oatholicity. The
Greek Church is an exceptional case, as
It is allowed 10 exist as an adjunct to the
Catholic Church because it has msin.
tanned orders through logical line OF
succession.
When Father Francis learned of this
decision and the reasons for it there is
reason for believing that he and the
three lay brothers who conduct the af-
fairs of the order will announce their de.
cisiOn to jOinthe Franciscan Order of the
Catholic Church, upon which their own
order was modelled.
While DR.. MtGsrvey, rector of 81.
Elizsbeth's Church, and his assistants,
Rev. NJ. l.. CowI, Rev. WI. Hay
ward aud Rev. William Fl. Mcclellan,
who resigned Sunday, have reirsined
from openly announcing that they in
tended TO enter the Catholic Church,
they may do so.

"Fighting Bob" Evans Retires.

WASHINGTON, August. 1S.-Father
Time today descended upon the naval

effaced from the rolls of Americas
great sea fighters the name of the
of them all-Rear Admiral
Robley Dunglison Evans. For today
is "~F'ighting Bob's" cd birthday, and
by law and rule the career of the
great warrior as an active commander
of ~conquering fleets on the high seas
is over and done.
With the single exception of Admi.

most popular officer the American
navy has known since the heroes OF

in his teens, and completed his record

that time, he rendered his country

Boston Wool Market Improves.

In its weekly wool market review,
the Boston commercial Bulletin
says the volume of business Is large,
but not as extensive as estim ated by
some people. Probably in the neigh.
borhood of 100000 pounds have
changed hands, including mostly Mon
tana and other Western clips in the
original bags and 1eeces of three
eighths grade, the latter showing
activity after weeks Of comparative
neglect. There is nothing like a boom
in sight, and on the whole a quiet
tone pervades the situation.
Sales of territory wool are large by
comparison with accomplishments OF
previous weeks. Selections are much
better and there ia a demand for
worsted woods and the better class OF
clothing stock. Fine staple Montana
sold up to 60c clean, grease prices
ranging from 20 to 21c. Good cloth
ing wool has been taken at Is to lie,
to cost so to SIC clean, for fine.
Among the transfers in the original
bags are several good-sized lines OF
Montana at 20 to 21c and of Idaho a,
10 to zoe, to cost 55c, secured.

To Improve Farm Conditions.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l9.-President
Roosevelt's commission for the study
of farm economic conditions will con.
vene here, probably within q month.
The work, however, will be only pre-.
limiuary. The motive of the commits.
sion is to devise ways so that farm
life will be so attractive that people
will prefer it to the city.
Aside from the educational and
propaganda work, this task Is mainly
one for the states, so far as concerns
legislation. There Is need for better
schools in the country: but these must
be secured by some reorganiz alton,
effected through change Of state laws.
Consolidation Of the country schools
and transportation of the children to
them at public expense is looked upon
as the beginning Of reform in the
country schools. Better roads like.
wise are necessary in order to get bet.
ter schools and to improve social con.
ditious.

EASY PHYSICAL CULTURE.
How One May Promote Good Health
Without Expense.

First of all, there Is the sensible use
Of the odd moments of the day. For
example, I must go out to my work in
the city; l must get up from my chair
after or at intervals during my work; l
must go upstairs. Here are the oppor-
tunities:
During the wash l can rub myself
well all over my skin. Having used
the warm water and soap and warm
water again, l can dip my hands in
cold water and then give my skin a
capital friction with the palms Of my
hands. This will afford excellent ex-
ercise for the arms and shoulders and,
when l stoop, for the trunk muscles.
1t will clean me, will help to harden
and invigorate me and will make my
hands and my whole body glow de-
lightfully. 1t will need scarcely any
extra time.
When l so out into the street, and
indeed whenever I go out, I can take
two extra deep and full breaths of
fresh air in through the nostrils. And
I can repeat this wonderfully healthy
practice whenever l wait ut q crossing,
whenever l wait ut all, and just before
I go into any building from the street,
and also before any important work
or interview, and, Of course, the first
thing if the morning and the last thing
at night. Here there Is not one mo-
ment Of extra time demanded, but
there is 20 much effective but easy
physical culture that at the end Of q
year the improvement in the breathing
capacity, the endurance, the vigor, the
complexion and even in the control OF
the temper may be almost beyond be-
lief. And, best Of all, the automatic
habit Of fuller aud more rhytllmicaI
Limitations may be firmly fixed.-Eus

Wonderful Growth Of Railways.

To say that in the last quarter OF a
century the mileage of American rail.
ways has doubled is telling the least
of the remarkable advance of the iron
horse. The locomotive itself has
quadrupled in numerical force and
that is striking no balance between
its pulling power today and 25 years
ago.
In 1882 there were 114,677 miles of
railway in operation, and In 1907 there
were 228, l28 miles, or almost exactly
double. Traffic has increased however,
much more rapidly than mileage. The
5000 locomotives in service in 1882
are contrasted with So, 800 in 1907, and
the new locomotives probably average
fully double the traffic capacity of the
old, says the Engineering News. The
Ii, 1000 passenger car of 1882 have be-
come As, 300 in 1907. The increase was
less rapid than in the case of the To-
comotives. This is due to the large
relative growth of freight traffic and
the diversion of a considerable pro-
portion of the passenger traffic to
electric railways.
The $780, 900 freight cars of 1882 be-
cam 1854, 900 in 1907, and here again
capacity per a was certainly dOu-
bled. The total miles of track and
sidings, gre from l4l, 600 miles in
1882 to 324, 900 miles in 1907.

SHERMAN IS NOTIFIED,
The Republican Candidate For Vice
President Accepts Nomination.

UTICA, n. Y, Aug. 1S.-In one of
the briefest speeches ever delivered by
a candidate for so high an Office,
James Schoolcraft Sherman today
accepted the nomin alton of the repub.
lican party for the vice presidency.
he spoke from a flag decked stand
IN front of his home ih Genessee street
and surrounded by party leaders from
different sections of the country and
by a crowd of non-partisan friends
and townsmen. The nomination was
rendered by a committee appointed at
the Chicago convention in June,
Senator Julius c. Burrows of Mich.
igan being the chairman and spokes-
man.
Mr.. Sherman in his address of
acceptance followed the example of
Mr.. Taft in pledging the allegiance
of any administration with which he
may have to do, to the policies Of
President Roosevelt. He declared
there was no issue as to whether or
not ''The people shall rule"
"Surely the people shall rule" said
Mr.. Sherman. "Surely the people
have ruled, surely the people do rule"
Casting thus aside. the campaign
slogan raised by Mr.. Bryan, the re.
publican vice presidential nominee
asserted that the overshadowing issue
of the campaign really is, "Shall the
administration of President Roose-
welt be approved?"
Mr.. Sherman made no attempt to
discuss in detail any of the issues
raised in the party platforms, con-
tenting himself with the declaration
that he subscribes fully and heartily
to all that had been written into the
Chicago statement and all that had
been said by MIR. Taft in his speech
accepting the presidential nomination.
BE referred to the democratic party
as "An aggregation of experimental
malcontents and theorists, whose only
claim to history is a party name they
~pilfered."

Damaged BY Earthquakes.

EUREKA, Cal, August lS.-Three
sharp earthquakes here, which knocked
down more that 100 chimneys, shat.
tered about 40 plate glass windows in
the business portion OF Eureka, broke
much crockery in houses and sent
many people scurrying from their
beds into the streets, occurred here
early today. The shocks extended as
far north as Blue Lakes, 25 miles
north of Eureka. The shocks seemed
to have been confined to a small area
and the vibrations were southwest to
northeast.
