AN OLD STATE DEBT
DUG UP BY KANSAN
And Kentucky Will Have to Pay
If Murdoch Bill Passes
Congress.

Washington, April S.--Kentucky viii
have to pay S1,443,757.39 to the Ma
tional Government If a bill introduced
by Representative Victor Murdoch, of
Kansas, becomes a law. Mr.. Murdoch
says the bill will pass at the regular
session of Congress. Of course this
liz somewhat problematical, but be-
cause of the fact that the States
which will have to pay in case the
law is enacted are few in number, as
compared with the whole number OF
States. it would be easy for Congress
to enact such legislation.
The bill bears the innocent title of
"A bill to secure repayment of all
money owing to the United States
repayment of which has been pledg-
ed" and it was not until recently that
the real nature of the proposed law
appears to have been discovered. The
object of the bill is to compel the va
rious States which received Govern
mont deposits under the act OF June
%, 1886, 10 refund the same 10 the
Government.
The Treasury surplus, chiefly from
sale of public lands, had become quite
large, and the States were tempted
beyond their strength. a law was
passed authorizing the Secretary OF
the Treasury to deposit a surplus with
the various States, deposits to be made
in four equal installments and a re-
serve of s5,OOO,OOO to be kept in the
Treasury.
When three installments had been
paid Congress repealed the act in 1899
But tn sum of SOS, lO1 ,GlI.91 had been
paid to the States. IT, the act OF re-
peal, it was provided that the money
already deposited should remain with
tho States until otherwise directed by
Congress"

A BILL TO CORRECT JOKER"
Packages of Tobacco We're
Never Restored to For
mer Sizes.

Washington, April 8 What is de-
signated as a "joker," that cost the
consumers of tobacco in this country
nearly $45,00O,0O0, was referred to in
the existing laws Of the United States
by Representative Dawson, of Iowa,
who at once introduced n bill to cor
rect the error.
Under the Dingley Tariff law the
two-ounce packages of tobacco sell
TO the consumer at 3 cents each and
the four-ounce packages for ten cents.
In 1898 q war revenue tax of cents
pound additional was levied on to-
bacco. At the same time, In order
to serve the convenience of the trade,
authorization was given for the reduc-
ton of the sizes of packages from
two, three and four ounces to one
and two-thirds, two and one-half and
three and one-third ounces. thus en-
abling the smoker to procure a 5-cent
and a 10-cent package Of tobacco at
the store"
In due time, the war revenue tax
was repealed Somebody forgot, Mr..
Dawson believes, to restore the pack
ages of tobacco to the original sizes,
and, hence, ever since 1902, the con-
sumner of tobacco has been paying
the equivalent Of the war revenue
tax to the manufacturers of tobacco.
According to figures obtained from
the Commissioner of Internal Reven-
ne. over 32,OOO,OOO.OO0 one and two
thirds-ounce packages Lave been sold
during the past six Years and over
II, 900, 900, 900 packages of the three
and one-third-ounce size. Representa-
tive Dawson figures out that the pur-
chaser of each small package has
been mulced out of / cent and the
purchaser Of the larger of cents
and hence the joker has cost the con
sumer almost S45,OOO,OpO.
Mr.. Dawsons bill proposes to re-
store the packages to the original
sizes

TOOK ADVANTAGE OF
HIS GREAT CHANCE
Texas Editor Writes up Event
of His Own Wedding and
Does II Well.

The Pflugerville (Tex.) Press failed
to appear recently. The reason for
this was that Mr.. A. w. Goerdel, who
controls the destinies o. this worthy
publication, took unto himself bet
ter half, Miss Amelia Fl. Heine, and
departed on a honeymoon trip. leaving
al. serene at home. Below we give
a quotation or two from the Pfluger-
vile Press, in which the editor in
his own words tells of the happy
event:
"Of course it was a quiet wedding
we did not notice anybody raising
any row about it. Every body seemed
to sympathize with the bride, and
looked at the groom as though they
could scarcely trust so dear a treas
ure TO his keeping forever. This
bride, as usual, was beautiful and ac-
complished las all brides are. We
have often wondered where on earth
ali the homely married women come
FROM She was appropriately at
tired in a dainty brown travelling suit
of de foiy waw shaw yaw, or some
other French stuff:
1.-THE minister, who Kept his head
all through the performance land he
was about the only one that did said
she was ninety-nine hundredths of
the best looking couple lie had ever
married. And we ourself without
consulting either minister or groom,
will admit that most of her good
looks are natural, and she doesn't
have to rub on a lot of Nine. Some

to make herself appear less than 10
years of age.
"The groom wore the conventional
black, that is, he wore a dark rig-out
and Il frightened expression. The OK
preston was his own property. In
addition to the aforesaid and above
mentioned, he had on white tie
and a pair of pateGt-leather shoes ON
which the patent was about to OK

dressed up within quarter of an
inch Of his life, and during The cere-
mony he shrunk so much that he
locked like Il boy wearing papa's
clothes!"

A CURIOUS CLOCK
TO Be EXHIBITED
AT the Louisville Electrical
Exposition.
HAS VARIOUS PHASES OF USE
Wonderful Timepiece Which
Required Thirty Years
To Complete.

One of the most complete exhibits
Of public school work ever gotten
together in Louisville will be shown
at the Southern Electrical and Indus
trial Exposition, which is now in
progress at the armory in that city.
A contract was closed for the
exhibition of the world.famous Geb-
hard clock. This is owned by r. l..
Gerhard, one of the inventors, and a
Louisville man. 1t was made in Ba-
den, Germany, and required thirty
years to complete. 1t is regarded
as one of the greatest scientific in
ventions of the age. 1t has been ex-
amined by Government officials and
pronounced perfect. The clock is in
three parts. The first part contains
a complete calendar, which gives the
date, the week, day, month and year,
as we'll as the intercalary day OF the
leap year, the golden number, the
Epacts, the Roman Indication, the cy-
Gle of the sun, the Dominica letter
and the movable holidays.
Ten dials in the center Of the sec
ond part give the correct time in the
ten leading cities OF the world. The
central dial has third hand, which
shows the variations OF the sun time
from the mean time for every day
in the year. To the right is TWEEN
sty-hour dial, showing the new divis-
ion of time coming into vogue in
the decimal system. To the left is
twenty-four-hour dial giving the ac-
curate sideral time, which advances
on the mean time in every twenty
four hours three minutes and fifty
six and one-half seconds.
The third part, which is at the top
shows four figures, representing the
different ages of maD'-childhood'
youth, manhood and old age. These
figures strike the quarters OF the
hour. When the fourth ngure
strikes the fourth quarter, an anger
appears and turns an hour-glass, de-
noting the passing of the hour. An
other figure-Death-st the hour.
To the right is a dial showing the
sunrise and sunset OF every day in
the year: also showing distinctly the
frightening and shortening Of the
DAYS. Above this can he seen the
moon in its different phases of ro-
tation, with its exact daily increase
or decrease.
To the left is a plantarium, which
gives the heliocentric movements oil
the six principal rlantes. To the
right of the clock is globe repre-
senting the earth, which revolves on
its axis from west to east once every
twenty-four hours. On the opposite
side is a globe representing the stars
or heavenly constellation, which re-
wolves on its axis from east to west
showing the movement Of the stars
In the center Of the clock at the top
is a niche. where at noon each day
appears the Lord and His disciples.
