Quarantine HELMS Cleveland.

Cleveland, O., Nov. 24-As direct
result of the quarantine placed upon
stockyards in New York and Penn
sylvania, due to apthous fever, Cleve-
land will become for the first time
in its history an important live stock
distributing center. Cattle, sheep
and hogs in transit from all western
points to the stockyards at Buffalo
and other eastern cities are pouring
into Cleveland, to be taken care of
until the quarantine is raised One
result of the influx of cattle may be
the cheapening of the price of meat
in Cleveland. This is not assured as
yet, but officers of the Cleveland Pro.
vision company and of the stock
yards admit the likelihood of a re-
duction in meat prices here if the
quarantine at other points lasts for q
considerable time.

tAMPHfRf TRIAL
Is Rapidly Drawing TO Close at
LapoF+e, ird.

LapoFfe, mo.
Laporte, Ind, Nov. "a. - The trial
of Ray Lamphere for the murder Of
Mrs. Belle Guinness and her three
children is drawing to a close. To
night will probably see the evidence
all in.
AS the case now stands, the de-
Tense has introduced evidence to
show that Mrs. Guinness was alive on
July 9, more than two months after
the fire in which the state contends
she persisted. The defense also has
offered evidence to show that the fire
was seen before the hour alleged by
the state that Lamphere left Mrs.
Smiths residence, thereby laying
ground for the alibi theory. Lam
phere, according to statements of the
defendants attorneys, will not go on
the stand.
After finding that no person bear
ing the name signed to the letter re.
ceived by Mayor barrow from Chi
cago, stating that the writer had ac-
companied Mrs. Guinness to Laporte
on July 8, was registered at the hotel
named in the letter, the attorneys
for the defense gave up that clew.
A letter received from Michigan
City saying Mrs. Guinness could be
found at 327 Walker street if Attor-
ney Worden would call for Mrs. Nc
Cornell, brought out the fact that
Mr.. and Mrs. Lew Mcconnell live at
that number. The authorities believe
the writer's are merely seeking no
tOriety.

SHOP FOR THE HOLIDAYS
NOW AND IN WINCHESTER.

Do your Christmas shopping now
and do it in Winchester. Do not
wait until the last minute when every
thing is rush and hurry. Make up
your mind what you want and then
go and oct it. If YOU do not want
to take it home now or to pay for it
on the instant, have the merchant to
set it aside until the holidays.
If you wait until the last moment,
you will find the choicest articles
gone; the stocks picked over. In
many cases, you will be unable to
get just what you want Besides,
if you shop now, you relieve the mer
chants and their clerks of much extra
work in the last few weeks before
Christmas. Be considerate in your
dealings. Try to put yourself in the
merchants place and aid him by
buying now instead of waiting for
the rush. You will get more atten-
ton now because the business man
and his employees have more time
to devote to you and you will be bet
fer satisfied.
And above all else, do your shop
ping in Winchester. Our merchants
carry as GOOD stock as do the mer-
chants Of many larger cities. Our
dry goods, clothing, crockery, furnit
ure and other stores are as COM
plete as those of Lexington. And
the prices are more reasonable. We
know from experience that you car
buy chearer In Winchester than YOU
can in Lexington, Louisville or Gin
cinnati.
Our merchants pay less rent for
their stores and their taxes are lower
than in the larger cities. They buy
just as cheaply from the wholesalers.
They can, therefore. af,rd to sell
far cheaper and still make COM
Portable profit.
SO much for the plrely business
side. But there Is a larger side.
Patronize your home people, your
neighbors. For what makes for their
upbuilding helps yOu. A gentleman
in our office Yesterday said that Clark
count was in his opinion the best
county not only in the State of Ken
lucky but III the whole of the United
States. The people were HON
ogeneous; they believed in themselves
and their county; they were loyal to
one, another. His proposition was
correct and it only remains for MS to
make it more true every year.
And if -ou live up the L. & E.
railroad or in any of the territory
East of Winchester, come to this city
to do your shopping. You are al
ways welcome here. You can a!wav,
find people you know and Won en- get
what you want and get ii cheaper
than You can farther on. 1t costs
less to get 70 Winchester thanlt does
to any other shopping center. +
you do not already patroni1e the
Winchester merchants, give them Il
trial. You VIII, we are confident. be
treated with courtesy ard fairness,
and Won will pay only reasonable
price for what you buy.

Akron, o., Nov. 24.-Congressman
Richmond P. Hobson, who was here,
has sent a letter to President Roose-
welt demanding that he rescind his
orders recalling the United States
feet from the Pacific. In his letter
he scored President Roosevelt for his
interference in the japanese troubles
in San Francisco.
"Our presidents have invariably re-
fused to interfere in local matters
even when foreign subjects were be-
ing assassinated, but in this case.
Mr.. President, you did interfere
where foreign subjects were not be-
ing harmed. If you We're justified
then in calling on the people of San
francisco to surrender, you are not
justified now in withdra wing the fleet
and again placing them and their
neighbors on the whole coast in pre-
cisely the same defense!ess position"
Conditions that have no counter
part in the Atlantic exist. Robson
says, and it would be national and

"OUIDA" SAID TO
HAVE BEEN AMERICAN.

LONDON, Jan. 3O.-(SpeciaD-A
dispatch from Florence, Italy, says
that an American woman, widow of
Col. George Roy Gliddoth, who fought
in the Confederate army and died
twenty years ago, told remarkable
story of the parentage of the novelist
Ouida, after her funeral
According to Mrs. Gliddoth, Louisa
de la Rance, which was the novelist's
supposed real name, was none other
than Col. Gliddoth's sister. This sis
ter left her home in America at a
tender age under the care of a woman
who adopted her as a daughter.
Mrs. Gliddoth's story recalls the
fact that there had always been more
or less mystery concerning Ouida's
parentage. Some say that both her
father and mother were French, and
that she was born in France Others
say that her father was French, while
her mother was an English lady, a
native of Bury ST Edmunds, where
Ouida is said to have been born in
1880. Ouida always refused to talk
about her relatives, as indeed she did
about any private affairs.

DRUMMERS WHO WRITE
LETTERS TO THEMSELVES

Some men on the road write let
ters to themselves before they get
to the next hotel, so they will appear
important when they register and
ask for their mail" said a hotel clerk,
but that isn't always the reason.
We soon catch on to them, because
we see their handwriting on the regis
ter and n their MALL and | noticed
it once in man whom | finally got
to know very we'll.
He wasn't the kind of a fellow who
cared anything about appearing i'm
portant.' | found out so | asked him
why he did. The explanation was
very simple He had miserable me-
mory, and when he was in another
town and would think of something
he had to do in that city he would
write it on slip of paper and mail
it to himself. He didn't put the
memorandum in his pocket for fear he
would forget about putting it there
"He said he had used the plan for
a long time, always writing ahead
if there was something in another
town he wanted to remember parti-
cularly, and said it was the best
plan he had ever found out to keep
from forgetting things. Elk.

THAW TRIAL LACKS
THE THEATRICALS

NEW YORK, Jan. 30-(SpeciaD =
From a theatrical standpoint, the
second Thaw trial has been miser-
able fairule In vain the sensational
press agents of the yellow press have
tried to arouse an enthusiasm. Not
a day has passed without it's hitherto
unpublished portrait of Evelyn Mes
bit Thaw," accompanied by columns
of balderdash regarding Thaw's men
tai condition, the heroism of his mo-
Their and the sad story of his beauti-
full wife. In spite of this, the people,
have been but mildly interested, and
some have been known to inquire,
who is this Thaw person, anyway"
New Workers do not care for warm
ed-over drama and secondhand emo
ton The Thaw case had its success
full run" in New York last year. The
second trial should have been pro-
duced ION the road" The most in
structive phase of the trial has per-
haps been the exposure of the ignor-
ance of the alienists. Protesting to
be able to give an authoritative opin-
ion as to the soundness or unsound
ness of Harry Thaw's mind, they
have been unable to define the word
mind. They do not know whether
it is an entity or a condition, thing
in-itself or an attribute.

WOMAN EDITORS
LEAP YEAR PROPOSAL
Brother Newspaper Man
Calls Her Hand.

DIES MONIES, IOWA, Jan. 80
(SpeciaD Miss Elizabeth Sohm, ed
itor of Storm Lake Vidette, who failed
to get a share of the official county
printing, this week published card
reading:
"A constant fight for what rightfully
belongs to her is a wear and tear on
the nervous system of any woman, and
we have come to the belief that in or
der to stay in newspaper work and
maintain our health, we will have
to marry some good printer who
can do the fighting and swearing for
us. This is leap year, and may be
considered a proposal by any one who
would be qualified to fill the vacancy
in The Vidette office"
When G. A. Craig, the bachelor edi-
tor of the Lytton Star, saw the arti-
Gle, he stopped his press, made over
a form, and in a double card res
ponded as follows:
I'VE believe we are eligible to fill
the vacancy which Miss Sohm feels
exists in her print shop. We are a
Missouri Democrat of forty years
standing, considered a good printer
and can swear fiuentIy in seven differ
ent languages. We agree to accept
Miss SOhm's proposal on condition
that she will show credentials as to
cooking abilities and express a will
lingness to darn our socks and mend
the gable end of our trousers when
needed AS soon as a favorable reply
is received we stand ready to close
the deal"
Iowa is awaiting the next issue OF
Miss Sohm's Vidette to see if she is
game"
