Woman the Tougher Sex.

Although men, as they run, are per-
haps muscularly stronger than women.
their inability to withstand the eIe-
ments and their reliance upon clothes
place them considerably below the so
called weaker sex in the matter of un-
clothed toughness. Women wear clothes
for ornament Men use them as pro-
tective covering. A group of men ma
rooned clotheless on an island in the
temperate zone might be expected to
die off in month from drafts and
colds and rheumatism. The health of
women similarly placed would suffer
little from the enforced exposure. The
fact appears to be, therefore, that in
everything but muscle-in vitality, rug
gedness, character, disposition, brain
power, etc.-woman is the tougher, not
the weaker, Kansas City Journal.

TAFT REPLIES TO FORAKER
It Is Brief and Denies That He Has Ac.
cepted Trust Hospitality.

Taft has given out a reply to Sen
ator Foraker's letter. Foraker said
Taft had recommended Judge Doyle, a
Standard Oil attorney, for a judgeship.
Taft says hemerely testified to Doyle's
high character and ability, saying he
would make a good judge, but at the
same time telling Roosevelt of Doyle's
connection with the trust.
Taft says that the attempt to con-
meet him with the Standard Oil COM
pany through the Middle Bass club
is ridiculous and shows the extremity
in which the author of the statement
finds HIMSELF Taft takes a whack at

Contrary to general belief. the py-

much, as he has a great fondne5s
for chickens; also for a stray dog or
small goat. know of one case, how
ever, in a floating house where a py-
thon attacked a woman and contrary
to the preconceived idea, did not crush
her in his folds, but attempted to
swallow her, commencing with one of

foot and ankle were badly lacerated

the python to make medicine from the

them. They also use the dried skin
for medicine. Any Chinese drug shop

TO DRAIN 5000 ACRES
State University Prepares Petition for
Reclaming Rutland Marsh
Lands by bitches

Madison, Wis, Sept. 26.-The Uni
versity of Wisconsin's department of
soils has made preliminary survey
of the marsh lands of the town Of
Rutland, midway between Stoughton
and Oregon, with a view to the or
ganization of a drainage district, for
which petition has been prepared. In
a report by u. r. Jones of the college
of agriculture, who made the sketch
of the proposed drainage system, the
fact is emphasized that the area con-
tains, some 5000 acres of land with an
average fall of six feet to the mile.
The surface drainage could be &C
complished by main ditch and later
ais at an approximate cost of S. an
acre. Compared with the certain bene
fiets accruing from such work, as dem
Onstrated by previous experiments in
marsh drainage in similar districts, the
cost is extremely small.

dict of mot guilty" Under a stipu-
lation with the district attorney the

Several chemists testified as to the
amount of alcohol in ''edelade' at the
trial. For the defense, Attorney w.
L. Tibbs brought Prof w. L. Claus
sen, of the Worlds Henus laboratory,
Chicago. who testified that the drink
contained less than one half OF, one

Henry Fink. also testifying for the de-

acts no tax for the sale of the drink
because of the small amount of alco-

mony to the same effect relative to the
alcohol.
In charging the jury, Judge Neelen

action in the matter thoroughly jlsti-
fed But if the steel trust violates the
law he will at once proceed against
that concern. He emphasizes the pro-
position that he does not attack a COR
poration because it is big, but because
it violates the law.
Replying to Bryan's call for a truss
official who is supporting him Roose-
welt says he finds in st. Louis pape7
that Judge Henry S. Priest, attorney
for the Waters Pierce Oil company,
has cone out in favor of Bryan, and
in an interview says that Wall Street
believes Bryan will be elected, and
that he found the drift of opinion

words of condemnation of Haskell's

action with that Of Taft in reference
to Foraker.
He tells Rryan that his Ignorance OF
Haskell's record was willful, and calls
Bryan's attention to the open letter Of
A. Il. Russell, of the ArdmOre (Okla.)
Democrat in which that editor charges
Bryan with refusing toread the charges

Roosevelt accuses HaSekll of wrong

he has received from n. L. Mott, ma
tional attorney for the Creek Nation,
charging Haskell with land frauds.
The president closes as follows: Il
believe in radical reform; and the
for such reform can be sue
cessful only if it frowns on the dema-
gogue as it does on the cOrruptl0nlst;
if it shows itself as far removed from
government by mob as from govern
ment by plutocracy. Of all corrup-
ton the most far-reaching for evil is
that which hides itself behind the mask
of furious demagogy, seeking to arouse
and to pander to the basest passions
of mankind No better exemplificatl0n
of this type of corruption could be
found than in the case of Mr.. Haskell.
''You have uttered no word of con-
domination Of Haskellism, as we thus
see it. That you consciously sought to
bring it about do not believe. That
