recently with the arrest Of James f.

ECCENTRIC TRICKS
Telephone Cuts Up Like a

You Wonder Why.

What a delightful habit the teie-

one off when in the middle of a con-

eral seconds establishing connection
all by itself again. Has it ever &C.
CURED to you? II it did, did you not
get sore at the party on the other end
of the line and accuse ahem of hang

but after few such attempts over the
phone and you have learned that it
was a bad habit of the phone you no
doubt ceased blaming the party at the
other end of the system.
Omcials of the company are aware
that the automatic system is not work
ing properly and are endeavoring 70
adjust the apparatus. They hope to
have conditions remedied in a few
days. The company has experienced
much hard luck this spring and sum-

GOV. MARSHALL IS
wan TED TO TALK
Considerable Interest Attach
ed to What He May
Say on Tariff.
A PRESIDENTIAL CHANCE
MAY HANG ON HIS REMARKS AS
HE HAS OPPORTUNITY TO FIG
URE IN NATIONAL coNvEN-
TON.

Indianapolis, Aug. 5.-Considerable
interest attaches now to what Govern
or Marshall may have to say on the
subject of the tariff. after the tariff
bill has been passed by congress 1t is
known that the governor has some
very pronounced views on this subject
and as he always says what he thinks,
what he says will probably be interest
ing Another reason why it is OF in
terest to know his views is that they
have much to do with deciding the
question of whether or not he will be
q figure in the race for the nomination
for president in 1912. If he speaks out
on the tariff and strikes popula.
chord with the rank and file of his
party he will surely stand good
chance of receiving the nomination.
But on the other hand if he should
happen to speak out and make a bad
break on the subject he would be like
the man who talked himself out of a
job. 1t is not known that he intends
to say anything. but the country, es-
pecially the democratic party, will
watch for something from him.

BIBLE CLASS Was
GIVEN LECTURE
Told of Need of Bringing Men
To Church.

Wednesday evening the friends and
members of the Young Mems Bible
class, the c. B. A., of the Christian
Sunday school. spent a very profitable
and enjoyable time at the home of
their teacher. P. T. Mcclellan.
The first part of the evening was
taken up by short program given
by members of the class and talk by
Mr.. NJ. l.. Pierce. English instructor at
the Ashley-Johnson Bible school of
Kimberlind Heights. Tenn. His talk
in which he brought out some very
good points on the position of men as
leaders, and the need of bringing men
to Christ and preparing them for that
great responsibility that rests upon
them. and suggested several very good
methods of lining up such men, was
very instructive as well as interesting.
The latter part of the evening was
spent in playing games. Light refresh
ments were served.

At the meeting of the Grand United

Anderson yesterday afternoon 1t was
decided to hold the convention next
year In this city. That Richmond is
on the boom is demonstrated by the
fact that this is about the fifth con-

next year. The chief object OF all of
the organizations of the city is to
bring as many conventions here as
possible and the spirit in which they
have sought to establish this end and
the impetuous with which they pro.
ceeded to carry 1t is very gratifying.
Without doubt the conventions are a
great thing for Richmond from every
standpoint, commercial as well as ed
ucational.
No serious difficulty has been ex-
perienced in bringing the conventions
to Richmond. In practically every in

NOT ALWAYS EASY TO SMILE.
Did You Ever Practice cheerfuIness In
Narrowing Circumstances?

1t is comparatively easy to be pleas
ant and cheerful when our bread-and-
butter problem is solved. when We are
strong and healthy, when we have har.
mOniOus, comfortable homes and
money in the bank; but the test Of
character comes when there is fam
lily to support, when a wife and little
ones are looking to us for bread am
clothing, and the wolf is pretty near
the door; when we are struggling
against poor health, a discordant
home, a dishonest partner. 1t is a
very difficult thing to be cheerful and
hopeful when q man is out Of job.
with no money in the bank, and an
invalid wife and children depending
upon him.
1t is comparatively easy to be optim-
fstic when the granary is full, when
there are no clouds on the horizon, but
q very difficult thing to be hopeful and
cheerful when the capital is small and
business poor. It is hard to be Optim-
istic when notes and bills are coming
due and there is no money to pay for
goods which lie unsold on the shelves.
1t is easy to smile when we are well
and everything is coming our way, but
when everything goes wrong with us.
when undergoing misfortunes or hard
ships, when those near to us are sick
and in distress, when poverty pinches.
when the -four is getting low in the
barrel, and hungry children look long
ingly into ones face, then it is not SO
easy to smile, to give the cordial hand
shake, to be serene, balanced and
poised. But this is just the time that
real character, that fine training, will
stand one in good stead-OrisOn
