Having thus ingratiated himself
the next step was made easy. Ho So
lected such tools from the ranks OF
these malcontents az seemed best
fitted TO his hands. and thereby es
tablished a means OF securing news
that would have been impossible In
any other way. From his little hoyel
he directed these men as seemed best
assigning them to tasks OF more OF
less magnitude, and paying lavishly
for anything Of value; and TO his oh
scure place there came divers men
when night time offered the cloak OF
darkness to the furtive.
Seigo's most valuable ally was one
Meredith. OF English parentage. and a
man who for years resided on Cross
street, Paterson. N. j., that unfor
tunate city whose very industry and
peacefulness had made At the gather
ing place Of the Reds. Meredith was
a machinist by trade. and an employe
OF a supply house; so II was not sur
prising that he brought news CT
strange and unusual purchases MADE
through many sources by the United
States government. In this there was
nothing alarming. and It was rather
with curiosity that the astute de
scendant Of Samurai looked over
these reports and vaguely wondered
whether they might have bearing on
war. He was sufficiently painstaking
to ask for others and check them up;
but In this he gained nothing beyond
the certainty that the navy depart
ment, while existing in state OF
seeming stagnation, was inwardly
very active. He made many trips tC
the points where these purchases
were made, but found them innocuous
In so far as he could reason.

GOV. WILSON AND THE NEW
YORK SIN,

The New York Sun few days ago
published prominent editorial under
the caption, lis Gov. Wilson, of Ken
lucky, a Failure?" says the Louisville
Evening Post.
| II would be difficult to find any
where an article. containing so many
misstatements. The Sun undertakes
to criticise Gov. Wilson and then
gives a number of facts as justifica-
ton for its criticism. Almost without
exception each fact vouched for by
1.-THE Sun is a falsehood. The New
York paper Is ignorant of the political
conditions in Kentucky, it is misin-
formed of the status of the Goebel
murder trials, II knows nothing OF
what is happening in Kentucky, but
1t undertakes to arraign Kentucky and
Kentucky's governor. basing each
criticism on something that is no,
true.
For instance, we find in the New
York Sun apropos of the Caleb Pow
ers case these two statements:
caleb Powers is now under SEN
tence by Kentucky jury for alleged
complicity in the murder of VIM. Goe-
bel"
caleb Powers is now the nominee
of the Republican party for congress
IN the Eleventh district in Kentucky"
OF course every citizen of Kentucky
knows that both these statements are
false. Their publication in New
York newspaper is not justifiable in
any way. The slightest inquiry would
show the inaccuracy of both state
ments
Caleb Powers is not the Republi-
can nominee for congress In the Elev-
enth district. ID. c. Edwards is the
Republican nominee in the district.
Mr.. Powers Is not a candidate for any
Office. He is in jail at Georgetown.
Again, the assertion that Mr.. Pow
ers is now under sentence by Ken
lucky court Is equally untrue. Mr..
Powers has been three times convict
ed. and each time the court of appeals
has set the verdict aside. At the fourth
trial the jury stood 10 to for ac-
quittal.
The Sun undertakes to arraign
Gov. Wilson for other offenses, and
rarely fails to misstate all the facts.
1t is misinformed about the night
rider situation, it knows nothing about
local conditions. it undertakes to try
and condemn the governor of Ken
lucky, speaking all the while in total
ignorance of what is happening in
Kentucky.
The Courier-Journal few days
ago, in a special dispatch from Wash
ington, exultantly published the news
that 1.-The New York Sun has sum-
med up Gov. Wilson in terms far
from complimentary.
The Sun is just about as for from
the facts as to what is going on in
Kentucky as is the Courier-Journal.

MAI. ALBRIGHT GOES HOME.


Major George w. Albrecht returns
to his home in Middlesboro with the
esteem and good wishes OF the law
abiding people of this region. His
service has been of an admirable
character. He has brought order out
of chaos and struck terror TO the
hearts of the lawless. Major Al
brecht did more than protect the peo-
pie in their rights and liberties. He
has actively and zealously aided the
civil authorities in rounding up the
night riders and bringing them to the
bar of justice.
II is Major Albrecht's theory that
the way permanently to restore peace
towns from raids, but to put raiders
behind the bars. The "pen,' he be-
lieves, is mightier than the sword
Silent as sphinx as to his move
ments, manly and dignified in his
bearing, courteous and leyel-headed
he inspired the whole western end OF
the state with confidence in the pur'
poses and plans of the authorities
He is small in stature, but every inch
is foot of solder. The soldiers
under him have deported themselves
in a manner that has won for then
universal regard. Their behavior has
been above reproach. They have
been given plenty of hard work and
they have discharged their duties
faithfully and efficiently

PICKED A DEAD ONE
RETRlBUTION THAT OVERLOOK
UNTRUTHFUL WAsHlNGTONlAN
Explanation Intended to Deceive
Trusting Wife Recoiled on His
Head-And 1t Cost Him
All His Winnings.

Not many moons ago poker game
was pulled off in one of the clubs of
Washington which caused prominent
merchant to wander home in the wee
small hours. Nor is that all. Excuses
were in order to mollify wifey, and of
course-but listen.
At half-past one o'clock on the morn
ing of that game the young merchant
had acquired a pile of red, white and
blue chips which to see over he was
compelled to stand up. They repre-
sented about $500 velvet.
He knew that in the cause of domes-
tic tranquility he should be going
home, but when he suggested that the
game be called off a then member Of
the house of representatives dropped
a verbal pearl to the effect that IF
you've got cold feet, put 'em right up
here in my bosom an warm 'em."
There was no drawing out for the
merchant, and so about $50 the next
morning he found his pile had grown
to double it's size and he cashed in
about $500 to the good.
After he had gone to the Turkish
bath, which brought his chronometer
around to noon time, he sauntered
home, to be met by his wife, who, to
say the least. was some peevish.
But the merchant beat her to it.
"Wait!" he commanded, "before you
say anything. had to go to Baltimore
late yesterday afternoon. Man who
bought a $1,000 bill Of goods paid for
it with a check which was returned
marked no good I couldn't stand to
lose it, and so hoped the first train
to Baltimore, got lawyer, and this
morning the man settled up, all right.
"Now, before rest any I'll take you
downtown and buy you something with
the gain on that bill"
Now the merchants wife was a Bal
timore girl before her marriage, and
naturally inquired what lawyer her
husband retained
why, I employed old Judge Emory"
the merchant replied, nothing daunted,
and he heard his wife call after him
as he went upstairs: ."I'm glad you
did. He's an old friend of the family"
Ten minutes later the merchants
self-satisfaction at having gotten by so
| we'll received a jolt when his wife
| rushed into his room fourishing Bal
timore paper.
Whom did you say you employed?"
| she cried. -
Il told you plainly Judge Emory"
| the man answered.
'Liar!" the wife stormed. t'Here's
his funeral notice."
Think Of it, boys" the merchant
said, in recounting his troubles tha
| night at the club. Thousands of Law
yers in Baltimore-and had to pic
dead one!"

Job for Senator GaIIinqer.

Senators are supposed to have many
powers and privileges not granted to
ordinary mortals, but perhaps never
had one been credited with possessing
the functions of divorce court and a
matrimonial bureau all at the same
time until Senator Gallinger received
the following unusual communication
from man who lives In a large city
in the middle west:
"Hon. Mr.. Gallinger: I am peddler
in this city. My wife lives in New
York. I wrote her letter, she would
not come. I begged Hon. Justice
James Fitzgerald to send me divorce,
although he is a brother in name to
my oncle he would not write me an.
swer. May I marry the End wife. /
amt afraid, if the H. Justice would
lok me up the hon. Jury would make
me free. I know what a have rich
girl, poor girl, ct nice girl, and not
very a educated and plain.
would your Honor be responsible,
if would marry the End wife, if the
Hon. Justice would lok me up"

Big Golf Game in Prospect.

Andrew Carnegie had luncheon with
President Roosevelt not long ago. The
Pittsburg millionaire is always a well
come White House visitor. On leav-
ing the executive offices he was asked
as to the truth Of the story that he
and John D. Rockefeller are not on
speaking terms as the result of dis
agreement over game of golf The
giver Of libraries laughed at the story.
IT have the highest respect for Mr.
Rockefeller and think he is much
abused man. I intend to play golf
with him in a short time, and I'll beat
him too," said Mr.. Carnegie.
"Of course" he went on with an
amused expression, II don't know how
things will come out if we play the
game on Mr.. Rockefeller's own
grounds. If we do shall have to
keep a sharp eye on him, as he knows
how to play the game and goes into
it with great earnestcess."

HAPPY HOUSEHOLDER IN FLORIDA
An Ancient Form OF Maritime Life Which Is Growing in Favor
With Americans Existence Independent of Time Tables

The claim has been ingeniously put
forward, supported by a showing of
authority, that houseboating is the
Oldest of all maritime pursuits. For it
is averred that Noah was the first of
recorded seamen and the ark, it is de-
clared was undoubtedly the original
houseboat. E-
However we'll founded this claim,
there is no doubt that houseboating is
very ancient pursuit and that it's
shallow, broad-beamed, comfortable
craft have been gliding down lazy
rivers, slipping through sounds and
inlets, and hugging shores for a good
many more years than the oldest
mariner can recall. Amphibious,
rather than truly maritime, the house
boat is, strictly speaking, not a crea-
ture of the high seas at all, but of
rivers, lakes, channels, canals and
coast waters. When it, or it's crew
tire of life afloat it even goes ashore
sometimes and settles down to a
fixed and prosaic existence as land
dwelling.
In America the houseboat's home is
the network Of coast and interior
waters which stretches in a gigantic
circuit around half the st. Lawrence,
south along the Atlantic, around the
gulf to the Mississippi, and through
that stream and tributary waters back
to the inland seas, a circuit which it
is now entirely possible to make in
one of these light draft craft, which
possess an ability to navigate in the
proverbial heavy dew rivalling that of
the stern wheel river boats of a by
gone generation.
Whether as the least strenuous of
sports, or as the most carefree and
idyllic of existence, it is certain that
houseboating is growing in favor
among those Americans who can COM
mand the leisure and the not exorbi-
tant price necessary for it's deliberate
pleasures. To those who like to
travel without particularly caring
where they go or when they get there,
who like to halt by the way, here for
the fishing and there for a few days
shooting, and who would escape the
denominations Of fixed schedules,
crowded hotels and other trials of the
ordinary vacation trip, houseboating
