Enali,h House Names.

House owners are sometimes rather
unfortunate in their selection Of names
for their abodes, and in subuFbia house
naming is occasionally rather ludicrous
Thus THE Naples" has never ma
pie near, The Rosary" only exists IN
imagination, "Sunuysidee is the most
depressing villa residence. and houses
named after the English lakes no more
suggest the lake district than Fleet
street suggests the Bols de Boulogne.
The Anglo-Saxon word "hyrst.' sig
nifying a forest or wood, has become
hurst in house naming and wood"
and holt" have the same meaning.
All house names ending with these ter
limitations are pretty and not unsafe to
choose.
1t is curious to note that in Hastings
and st. Leonards quite a number Of
houses have typically Saxon names,
perhaps to commemorate the great
Saxon tragedy Of which, the name
Hastings is reminiscent.

Letter to J. E. Hardee Co
MADISON, FLA.

Dear Sirs: Experience teaches some
people sometimes; it teaches a few some
things ;it's mighty slow school though
that same experience.
Lots Of people paint lesd-and-o oil. paint
once in three years, and think them
selves wise; they are wasting half their
money and fuss, They're so sure they
are wise, they die as they live, paint
foolish. Experience teaches them moth
ing.
There's another set, who buy paint
by the gallon, and go by the price cf d
gallon. They think one price is high,
and another is low, and they pay about
mlddling, why don't they pay low?
They know that milk isn't dear or cheap
by the price Of a quart; that the milk
has something to do with IT, They
don't buy "cheap" milk, but they buy
CHEAP" paint and pay double. Exper-
fence teaches thea nothing.
There's another set. They painted
years ago lead-and.oil, exhausted that.
Then tried something else, 1t was bet
ter or worse. Then Devoei it cost about
half and wore twice as long. That's
how experience teaches some Of us.
Yours truly,

Hon. Dannitte H. Mays spent Satur-

man at the polls in November. Mr.
Mays was the winner in the primary,
securing majority Of 40 votes over bis
opponent, ]. Walter Kehoe. Our read.
ers are familiar with the action of the
committee which, in spite Of the re-
turns, declared Kehse the nominee and
issued a certificate tot hat effect. Then
came the court fight instituted by Mr.
Mays before Judge Malone in which he
won out. Then the fight before Judge
Wolfe instituted by Mr.. Kehoe in which
Mr.. Mavs was again the victor. The
matter is now before the Supreme
Court, but a final decision is hardly
expected before the date Of the election
AS things now stand Mr.. Mays was the
winner before the people in the prima
ry, the winner in the legal action insti-
tuted by himself and the winner in the
legal action instituted by NJ Kehoe-
and unless all signs fail he will be the
winner in the final contest before the
people on the day Of the election.

widespread stormy weather had had
the effect of dulling distributive
trade, interrupting railway traffic
and restricting the movement of
grain to the market to the smallest
volume in twenty-five months. In
addition, floods in the Ohio and trib-
utary valleys have restricted indus
trial operations for time. The re-
tail trade is at transition and is quiet
on the whole. The talk of reduction
in wages by railroads and others is
widespread. Industrial affairs show
little change with shutdowns and

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 21.-Hor-
ace G. Mckinley, fugitive from JUS
tice, sailed from this port in Novem-
Der, two years ago, in company with
Little Egypt" on the liner Mon
golia. He returned yesterday on the
America Maru in custody of J. F.
Kerrigan, deputy United States mar
shal, who left for Portland last night
with his prisoner. There are more
than 100 Federal indictments against
Mckinley in connection with Oregon
land frauds, and ever since he dis
appeared government detectives have
been on his TRAIL Mckinley was ar
rested at Mukden, but while waiting
extradition escaped with the assist
ance of the most notorious robber
band in the far East, who hid him
for weeks and would have placed him
beyond even Uncle Sans reach, but
for the treachery of one of their num-
ber.
The story of McKinley's escape
from the Mukden prison is straight
melodrama, to which Mckinley yes
terday added the finishing touch by
begging that no mention be made of
the part played in his release and
subsequent protection by his friends,
the outlaws.
