1t is curious how things dey ell
op. For several generations the
liquor interests have run things
with a high hand and busted
themselves with politics and con-
troled city government the prohi-
bitionsts made what fight they
could but they got nowhere in a
party sense, but they kept cal
ling attention to conditions, and
finally the people became aroused
and such a sweep OF prohibition
as they never even thought of
has resuItld. The wet" and
dry" question is the mos
discussed of any one on the
trains in the hotels and business
places. A very large part of
the territory of the nation is now
dry and the rest will FLOW,
The lipour interests have broght
this on themselves because of
their high handed methods and
refusal to obey the laws.
Some think there will be a
reaction but | am of the opinion
that the nation will go dry by act
of congress and that beers, wines
and whiskeys will be neither
manufactured or admitted to i'm
port AS the dry territory in
creases there will be more and
more shipping from wet states
into dry territory, and that will
force the dry majorities to COM
pei their congressional represen-
tatives to make the nation dry or
penalty of being retired to pri-
vate life. When a majority of
dry districts and states arrive,
they can and will control con-
gressional action. 1t will be toe
bad to deprive the mi..ionaires OF
their champagne won't it?

ROMANCE IN SCOTCH HISTORY.
cSrss Pronounced by Mother Of Great Soldier sssmed to Nave Ads-

The widow of the great viscount Dundee married shortly after his death William Livingston of Kilsyth. who had long been in love with her. Dun- dee's mother. who considered Living ston virtually her sons murderer. pro nounced . curse on her daughter-in- law and her husband. praying that God would show the unworthy couple some swift token of his anger. The wedding day of Livingston and Lady Dundee was fraught with bad omens. The bridegroom gave the bride :sng inscribed. Yours Till Death" but the ring was lost before the day was over. and the vengeful old Lady Dundee sent as her wedding gift nightcap. a pair of white gloves and a rope, all these articles typical of a condemned murderer. In October. 1895. it seemed as though the unhappy fate so desired by Lady Dundee fell on her daughter in-law. who died at Utrecht through a terrible accident. She. her infant son, through the roof falling in, her hus- band being rescued with great diff culty. The bodies of Lady Kilsyth and her baby were embalmed and brought to Scotland. and in the year 1860 it was the common practice of the in habitants of Kilsyth to go to the vault and see the bodies. which were as per feet as the hour they were first placed in the coffin.

TREASURE HIDDEN IN EAR TH.
Priceless Relics So Concealed Must Some Day Be Restored to
 the Light of Day.

The actual prosaic instances Of treasure trove and the Old World ceremonial involving "crowner's quest law" to decide the legal rights are to be found in any text book on the subject More interesting. with cer- tain fascination of romance. is the re- fiection that even in our own country. there are probably numerous buried hoards, says the London Chronicle.
 One cannot always ignore tradition. and throughout the length and breadth of the land are to be found old .gends of hidden treasure. some times guarded by a c-rse. sometimes by a special warder, There is prob ability almost amounting to certainty that valuables were Hidden by the Romans. and even more probably by. the Romano Britons. The treasures of the Incas and of pirates such as Kidd are still existent in theory: the buried wealth of India is mnong the parliamentary facts known to all stu dents of the east.
 But perhaps most s'artling and al turing of all Is the the ,ry that among the treasure trove to be at some time recovered from Persian sands or ruins are the Sacred Breastplate and the mysterious trim and ThumEim of the Jewish priesthood.

Later. 1t was an- nounced in court that Mir. Lyons was dead, and the greengrocer was re- manded to see whether the coroner's jury would hold him in any respon- sible for the tragedy.

Bobby Wallace, the star shortstop of the St. Louis American league team. loves to recall an incident that hap pened back in the sos just after Te- beau had assigned him to third base for the Cleveland team.
 Up to that time Bobby's only useful ness to the Cleveland club had been his well-known ability to pitch against the Brooklyns and hold them score less. .-
 The Trolley Dodgers were as help less before him as the Maps have gen. orally been against Barney Pelty.
 Cleveland opened at Cincinnati the year that Wallace blossomed out into third baseman. and Bobby's playing in that initial series was probably the most remarkable exhibition that up to that time had ever been seen. with the possible exception of Jerry Den ny's great work.
 Wallace and Tabeau occupied con meeting rooms at the Gibson house. and about two a. m. delegation of Cincinnati and Cleveland newspaper men borrowed a pass key and invaded the suite. Tebeau was reused from his slumbers by the late Harry Vel den and shown a 'phony" telegram from Cleveland, reading:
 President Robison wired Manager Tebeau tonight ordering immediate release of Wallace" Tebeau read the message over two or three times in a sleepy fashion.
 'Ts this true?" finally asked Vel den. while all the other newspaper men turned their backs to hide theiI smiles.
 "True?" snarled Tebeau. tearing the message into bits and making a spring at the newspaper boys. 'I don't care what Robison says. I wouldn't trade Bobby Wallace for your whole alarmed Cincinnati team with John T. Brusi thrown in"
