SILENT ON GARY.
Gilman Has Nothing to Say as to
S His Election-Jmps on the Dis
Il pensary Commission.

sssaA dispatch from Washington to
l9fhs Columbia State says:
'sSsssSSSs5enator Tillman was asked today
}sgafhe would not crafty IA large num-
sBefS of citizens in South Carolina
with al expression of his opinion
Ss8tbout the election of Frank B. Gary
Sas unexpired' senator.
ssssstH Why should L say anything" ne
sGsplied "The legislature has elected
Gary senator and it will be my
sspleasure to receive him at this end
W. the line as my colleague in the
$sanate and to accord him all the as
7 sistancc | can. AS to the action Of
the legislature in electing him it
would not be proper for me TO en-
press any opinion. I have said all [
have over had to say about the elec-
&Eon Of senator and in that | had
SiIio man in mind and had no person.
;A preference, so far as that is con-
cerncd. The truth is | have been 81
much interested in Watching the pref
Ity mess that they have got the dis
Bgpsnsary affairs in that L have not
S$been thinking much about The sena-
Storship anyway.'
S$IThan the senator made some
characteristic remarks with all the
usual punctuation marks about the
8#inding-up commission and the COM
splsation with Judge Pritchard. who
left here this morning. The two met
8SbYchance at the capitol and the SEN
stSr jokcd the judge with the
%sSssanaess" he had got things into.
S%.tssssfsstsiThe trouble never would have oc-
+ piirred,' said the senator to the
State s correspondent. eff the legis-
slatnre had never placed the funds in
&sttoSthe hands Of commission which
aoitld take the money out of the State
;tSasury. Do you suppose that II the
money had been in the State treasury
4 ana the regular officers of The Stat :
II iiijiiiE#chargc Of it. any federal Judge
3:would have dared to touch it? Judge
Pntchard's action had for It's ground
u G,theSfact that the commission was act
y Siiii8smerely as trustees for the State,
n aud he holds that this places them IN
I ,SttttleE SsttttleE same position as trustees or
agents for any business concern.
\ There is something peculiar about this
commission business anyway. / have
been trying to find out who was the

$to. say there is something crooked
sabout it. it certainly seems that the

Fracticing Shorthand in Church.

I counted seven girls taking down
my sermon in shorthand this morn
ing" said Methodist minister. "I
am getting tired of this business of
turning church into school. It is a
desecration of the Sabbath and of the
sanctuary and it gets worse year by
year.
when the thing first began / admit
that l was f1attered. 1 thought the
solitary shorthand writer in my front
pew was reporter l took unusual
pains that morning, and l searched all
the newspapers the next day. In vain.
of course. The shorthand writer was
merely a student of stenography using
me to practice on.
students Of stenography should
practice on actors and on lecturers
but no, that would cost a little money.
Nothing suits them but ministers, and
every Sunday, all over our land, young
men and women. with their pads and
fountain pens, go to church solely to
Improve their shorthand"

Don't Hama Birds HiQh.

$50 the canary's dead, eh?" said a
pet stock dealer. ct was a fine bird,
towel worth the $40 you paid me
for it.
''But / don't wonder it died. You
would keep it hung up near the cell
ing. They shouldn't be kept up high
at all. Their cages should be on ia
bles, not hooks.
up near the ceiling the air of a
room is very bad, especially at night.
Indeed, at night, if you burn oil or
gas, the air is insupportable up there.
For an experiment, stand on table
some night, with your head at the
usual bird cages height, and take a
Whit of the atmosphere. 1t will i'm
press you.
"And particularly in rooms where
smoking goes on-you know how
smoke, like all other impurities,
mounts-it is bad to hang birds high.
"Why can't the world remember the
old catch:
Birds hung high

Wizards WARMING.

The traditions connected with the
historical residences of the British
aristocracy are many and varied, but
none perhaps is more curious than
that related about Yester, the Scot
fish home of Lord and Lady Tweed
dale. The old castle-now a pic
turesque ruin-referred to by Sir Wal
ter Scott in "Marmion," contained a
wonderful vaulted hall which Hugh
Clifford, the magician, is said to have
erected with one stroke of his wand.
But it was not case of "easy come,
easy 60" and the wizard solemnly
vowed that any man who attempted
to tamper with the fair building should
die swiftly and violently. The old
tradition was recalled when the pres
ent LordTweeddale's eldest brother,
Lord Clifford, was crushed to death by
a falling tree. A short time before
he had done some clearing operations
that interfered with Hugh Gifford's
hall.

MexIcans as Railroad Laborers.

"Mexicans are used to large ex-
tent on railroad construction in the
Southwest" said r. E. Marshall OF
Los Angeles, Cal. "They are the most
satisfactory labor the railroad men
down there have found. The Next
can is inclined to drink and fight lit
tie, but he is no worse in this respect
than the average laborer Of the rail-
road construction class. He will do
more work and he is inclined to stick
to his job pretty well.
"The ordinary Mexican will stay at
1t about six months if he can hold his
job that long. Then he wants to take
trip back home. He will give his
foreman notice, perhaps month be-
forehand, that he wants to leave for
a month with the folks. He receives
pass and away he goes. AS soon
as he is broke he sends out word
that he wants to go to work again,
and if there is anything for him to
do the railroad will haul him back.

1t does seem that women have
more than a fair share of the aches
and pains that afflict humanity;
they must keep up" must attend
to duties in spite of constantly ach-
ing backs, or headaches, dizzy
spells, bearing-down pains; they
must stoop over, when to stoop
means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking
pains and many aches from kidney
ills. Kidneys cause more suffering
than any other organ of the body.
Keep the kidneys we'll and health is
easily maintained. Read the RENE

up practice in her neighborhood.
Not wishing to lose any of her prac-
tice by changing her name when she
married Mr. Erott. who is a student

best thing to do was to have the
court change his last name to Cope

PERSONALITIES OF INVENTORS.
Some Strange DevIatIons From Rsqu.
lar Occupationg,


OF course, outside of the independ-
ent and salaried professional invent
ors is the great army of men who,
while actively engaged in occupations
embracing every line of human en-
deavor, develop new ideas, often of
great value and just as often altogeth-
er out Of their line of regular work
An inquiry into the personalities
of a few dozen inventors to whom pat
ents have been granted during the last
year shows some remarkable facts.
Among them a sea captain has pat
ented a steering gear for automobiles,
while a carriage builder has invented
a ships capstan.
A blacksmith has papers for fish
ing reel, a shoemaker for typewriter,
a physician for door lock and an un-
dertaker for a hosting derrick, and
many others show just as strange de-
Walton from their regular walks of
life.

agricultural department for good
many years. When Uncle Jerry Rusk
of Wisconsin was secretary of agph
culture DR.. Wiley brought him let
ter to sign. 1t had been written to
an impertinent but influential CORE
spondent and was couched in cunning
ly sarcastic vein. Mr.. Rusk read 1t
with delight, roared out his laughing
approval and then tore 1t up.
In answer to DR.. WiIey's look of
amazement he said: THAT was a
bully letter. Now go and write one
that we can send to the blame fool.
DR.. Wiley learned there and then
that witty and sarcastic letters are not
in favor of the government service.

Price of Slaves.

Slaves" said the socialist, smiling
grimly, Should be interested in the
price of other slaves. Well, then:
Before the war a good strong man
was worth $4,000; a woman $1,000, a
child $500.
I'm Rome, in the Golden Age, Ia
borer only cost 500, and sometimes,
after a great victory and an influx of
captives into the capital, it was posi-
bile to buy strong, capable slaves for
SIS apiece.
Skilled slaves, men with trades,
brought higher prices. Cicero paid
$1,000 for a scribe. Catiline had a
cook that cost him $4,000.
"a gardener was worth $500, a
blacksmith $3.50, an actor $1,000. q
physician $4,000.

ORIGIN OF PARIS.
Fragment of Veal, Vidi, Vici History
Recalled.

Recalled.
The city of Paris owes it's origin to
the conquest of Gaul by Caesar. When
this Roman general on his path of
conquest came to the present site of
the French capital, he found swampy
island in the river Seine, which was
inhabited by a Gallo tribe called
PARISH, who lived in huts made OF
rushes. Rather than be captured by
the Romans these people burned their
rude city, which they called Lutetia,
or mud town." and the great Caesar,
quick to appreciate the situation, built
a temple to Jupiter and wall round
the island.
A town soon sprang up about the
temple, and was named PARISH, after
the ancient tribe. In later years this
was shortened TO Paris.
