ORIGIN OF THE PIE SUPPER
An InstItutiOn which Blooms In
some Old Kentucky
Homes.

Hardin county, Keatueky, is the home Of
the pie supper. Eventually the pie supper
is destined to become prevalent throughout
these pie-loving United States, but at the
present time the honor OF discovery and
the first enjoyment belongs TO Hardin
county, where the pie supper is an institu-
tlon OF the first magnitude.
Whatever the purpose, or for whatever
cause, the pie supper is the most effective
means OF arouslng an interest and raising
the wind" in Hardin county. And small
wonder. The same elements and conditions
that nave constituted the attractiveness OF
the pie supper in Hardin county are bound
to succeed anywhere. They are founded
deep as the inherent passions OF the race,
and while humanity endures their appeal
cannot grow less,
Like all supreme discoveries. the COM
pOnent parts OF the pie supper, except the
ingredients. are extremely simple. Given
an adequate number OF charming girls who
have been reared in the good. old-fashioned
Omaha daily bee., 1908-11-28

way, and the usual complement Of young
men, and the success of the pie supper is
assured. The girls make the pies, which
are then gathered at some central point,
and suctioned to the highest bidder.
THE pocket empties cleanest in Ken
lucky" sings Judge Mulligan of Lexington
which is evidence that the learned gentle
man has attended a pie supper in Hardin
county. What swain wouldn't empty his
Iwn pockets, and the pockets of all his rela-
tives, neighbors. and the stranger within
his gates to bid in the pie made by the
dainty fingers OF the dearest girl in the
world?
For yeaT the pie supper, as a time
honored custom. has been the reagent for
the solution of church debts, library funds,
missionary contributions, and similar prob
lens in Hardin county. 1t has never failed,
and in the nature OF things it cannot fail
until the streams run dry and the rocks
melt in the sun.-Louisville Times.

THAT STRUCK GOLD
Maligned and Patient Beast Kicks UD
a BOnRnzR While Aiming
at "A Fly.

The Occur d'Alene district of northern
Idaho is one of the most valuable mining
sections in the United States. Situated
in a wild, rough country in the heart of
the mountains bearing the same name,
this region has yielded immense fortunes
to many lucky prospectors. Well-developed
mines are now located there, and the
largest producer gave a profit of g, 964. 2l3
for a single year.
Remarkable enough, the credit for the
discovery of this bonanza belongs to a
donkey, and the records in the courts of
Idaho bear out this fact. In the summer
of the year 1882, a small pack-train was
slowly picking its way over a rocky pass
in the Occur d'Alene range. and the patient
burros were greatly tormented by a pest
Of flies. One Of the sturdy little animals
kicked viciously to dislodge a particularly
annoying fly and its hoof struck a project

Fox Plays 'Possum.
Pittsfield (Mass3 Cor Boston Herald.

Pittsfield (Mass) Cor. Boston Herald.
 Here is a real fox story from Beckett that is not a nature fake.
 Hard pressed by dogs belonging to John l.. Wheeler. a fox played possum, fooled the dogs and escaped with a whole skin
 One hound had followed the fox all day and a fresh one was placed on the trail later in the afternoon. The fresh hound followed the fox so closely that, after passing through Beckett village to Benton Hill, he returned in circle, ran the length of Mrs. Mary Gardner s piazza. and into the backyard of Elmer D. Ballou, where he lay down to rest in corner.
 For five minutes the hound watched over the fox and Mrs. Ballou then drove it away with broom, not realizing fox was hidden in the corner. Later she dis covered the fox and poked it with a broom, rolling it over twice She SUD- posed, of course the fox was dead, and called her husband. During the three minutes she was in the house the fox jumped the fence, looked around to see if any dogs were near, and was off in the forest.
 Ballou and Wheeler are still looking for the brush.

A SEAT IN THE SENATE.
Popularly Regarded as the Ultimate Ambition of the American Politician.
WhoIesale-2o15 First Ave.

Julius Chambers, in the Brooklyn Eagle.
 The attainment of seat in the United States Senate is popularly re- garded as the ultimate ambition of the average American politician. Not a governor of state in the Union but would give up his job tomorrow to attain it. Exactly why this is so isn't easy to explain; because there are few CT men of real national reputation in the Senate chamber than at almost any period of the country's history. There are, it is true, a lot of men who are famous chiefly for the length of time they have spent in that body as the representatives of vested interests drawing pay from Vthe government treasury while they are serving the small circle of money grabbers who sent them where they are and keep them there.
 What delight to say that men of that class are slowly but positively dis appearing from the upper as well as the lower hall of Congress. A proof that some men of this class are not great in themselves is seen by the complete and dense oblivion into which they tumble the moment they are left at home. The individuality they were supposed to possess vanishes. While in the Senate, they may have been ac- customed to mention as great consti- tutional lawyers" but when the rail- road or other corporation has no fur- ther use for them and declines to ''con- tinuep them in office, they retire to some insignificant inland village or city and fail to shine as local pettifoggers This point would be emphasized were to mention a few names, as might easi- ly be added. But why add to tn heartburn of men who realize, when too late, that they have sacrificed great opportuni- ties to serve the people, but have all lowed ambition to lie dormant.
 The United States Senate ought to be an originating source of sugges- tions for valuable legislation Not that a change in the constitution, which specifically declares that the House of Representatives must be the source of all legislation involving the eXpendi- ture of government money, is needed; but the Senate can discuss any old question at any conceivable time. It's members can take as long as they de- sire, about nothing or about vital prob lems of national life. Why, in heavens name, don't they do something of this kind at times? The great tariff ques- ton is confronting the American people. Why shouldn't the Senate become the instructor of the House? The true ex- planation is that most of the senators are interested" in this or that fea- ture of the protective tariff that has created an unnatural and offensive brood of millionaires in this country. If the Senate contains so many famous constitutional lawyers, why doesn't one or more of tn em interpret to us the critical differences between trust com panies and banks? Why not have United States bank? Conditions have changed in every other branch of trade since the time of Andrew Jackson, why not in banking? If it Is an undesirable innovation, let us know why.

 The great seven -masted schooner Thomas W. Lawson was recently wrecked and sunk off the Scilly Islands, with loss of several lives. When the news of the disaster was published it was noted as a peculiar coincidence by Wall street that a schooner named after Thomas w.

corporations that show a most praise worthy regard for the safety of their work people. During the past year, for example, the Union Pacific Railway con- pany has spent about $2,0o0,O0O in installing appliances designed to reduce the chance of accidents to the lowest possible de- gree The results appear in the compari- son of the accident statistics of the sys- tenn for the fiscal years 1906 and 1907 In the former year 114 persons were killed
 in all accidents, and 1883 were injured; in
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-01-19

1907 the total number of killed was 105v and of injured 1104. A system of tests was established three years ago for insuringi the watchfulness Of employees relative to the signal system. Twice year a corps of instructors passes over all the Union Pacific roads, drilling new and old em- ployes in the details of their respective duties. To this careful supervision and the improved appliances is due the de-t crease in the number of accidents.
