New York, Dec. 19.-Willam Loeb.

Richard Parr, deputy collector and
original informer in the sugar frauds.

Mr.. Loeb approved the claim only
after thorough Investigation by Har-
rison Osborne, solicitor of the customs.
He had said that the claim was valid,
in that Parr on Nov. 20, 1907. discovered

checkers to influence the weight OF
draughts or sugar adversely. This laid
bare the scheme to defraud. and 1t vas

Parr Is not the only claimant for the
award. He has serious rigval In Ed

but the inference Is that Parr will win,
for the treasury department has ra.i-
fed practically every move of Mr.. Loeb
in the sugar scandals.
There is some conflict of statutes
concerning payment of this character,
but 1t is said in any event Parr VIII
receive 80 per cent of the amount nam
ed. or approximately 100000.
PaIr tonight confirmed the report
that Mr. Osborne has acted favorably
on his claim and that Mr.. Loeb had rat

"I do not know exactly how much I
will receive" said Parr. I'm exception

ON LOEB'S RECOMMENDATION

Washington, Dec. l9.-Secy. of the
Treasury MacVcagh will have to pass
upon the recommendation of William
Leob, Jr.. collector of the port of New

"moiety" of the s2.135. 1856 collected from

not be reached tonight. No other Of

the matter.
1t was learned however, that Parr

der a law passed June p, 1874, e-half
of all such recoveries goes to the gov
eminent and one-quartcr each to the

about. This division. however. Is made
after deducting duties. expenses OF COL

Duties in the present case amount TO

divided as indicated. Expenses of the
investigation Of the sugar trust opera
tions and subsequent prosecutions have
heen so heavy that 1t Is believed only
small balance, II any, of the fine
remains to be SO distributed.

Toxic, Japan.-"Before the war" is
as much a stock phrase in Japan to-
day as it ever was in the United States
after the struggle of the sixties. The
war has made all things new. Now
japan is ship that has found herself.
And what are mostly guesses on the
part of the rest of the world concern
ing Japan's purposes and future are
intensely interesting present problems
with persons on the scene. The stu
alton here is complex and rather be-
wildering, but there are certain I'M
questioned facts which stand out
clearly as a result of the war.
One Of the wonders wrought by this
wonderful war takes rank as perhaps
the most conspicuous achievement of
its kind in religious history. For the
conflict lately waged in Manchuria has
been the means of winning the whole
nation to friendliness for Christianity.
This amounts to nothing less than
vast Christian conquest. 1t justifies
the sanguine reports which mission
aries sometimes send. home, without
any such ground as they may stand
upon in the present case. Represen-
tatives of many denominations, from all
parts of the empire, natives as well as
foreigners, have assured me that prac-
dcally the last vestige of active oppo-
sition to Christianity has gone from
Japan, thanks to the work done in

She does not wait until you ask for

1t usually happens, too, that she
pours it more freely when you can't

She has sharp eyes as a rule. They
are not bright and pretty, but rest
less little beads, that look as. if they

which pricks at every glance.
If she looks, 1t is to criticize; if she
listens, it is to suggest; if she speaks
it is to relate her experience ana ex-

You would meekly suggest that

knowledge through experience; but

Lafayette Co. Press.
A few weeks ago two white boys
in Jackson, Miss, were convicted of
stealing pocket knives from the
store of the Capital City Hardware
Company. They were school boys,
OF neat appearance and wore honest
faces. After giving them severe
but kindly'lecture Judge Thompson
decreed that the father of onn and
the uncle of the other should take
them inside the jail enclosure and ad-
minister such whipping as in their
judgement the offense called for,
which was promptly done.
There are some people of maudlin
sentimentality who will shudder in
horror at such proceeding. But
how infinitely better than a Jail SEN
tence where they would have become
contaminated by experienced Grim
inals. Spare the rod and spoil the
child may be maxim belonging to
the past, but since boy nature re-
mains about the same the old fash
Toned discipline comes in mighty
handy as last resort. We heartily
commend Judge Thompson action
to perplexed parents and pedagogs.

deep and sweet and tender and ac-
cordant love may render the home
life, it can not but happen that in
the close contact in the every day
openneSS and disclosures of the home
our bad points will come out. No
family is made up of perfectly straight
sticks, but crooked ones. And when
they are piled together in the close

Will appear. The man and woman
married the most utterly, married
along the whole line of their natures
must yet find some point where there
is not complete contact. There is dis
similarity of education. Before must
clans can pour forth perfect harmo-
ny, they must bring their instru-
ments into perfect tune, Before two
hearts car perfectly strike together
they must be keyed to the same note
that cannot be altogether done be-
fore marriage. The exact real self
does not appear in courtship. 1t is
the best self, the self dressed in the
best wardrobe of manners and the
sentiment and sacrifice, that appears
then. After marriage the self puts
on it's common habits for what it is,
Then each real self must adjust itself
to each real self; then must each bear
and forebare, then must any incom-
patibility be met and mastered by
mutual charity which sutfereth long
aud is kind, which never faileth.

THE MISSISSIPPI.

Clarion Leger.
Located on the Mississippi and a
near and affectionate neighbor OF
Mississippi, New Orleans wants the
Navy Department to send the Miss
issippi up the Mississippi, so the
people Of Mississippi may see the
Mississippi in the Mississippi thus
proving that the Mississippi is nav
igable not only for the Mississippi,
but for boats drawing more water
than the Mississippi. So if the peo-
pie of Miss. would see their Mississippi
ascending the Mississippi they
must get their Mississippi energy up
and petition the Congressman from
Missippi to see that the Navy De-
partment changes its orders about
the Mississippi, which reflect on the
Mississippi and have the Mississippi
come up the Mississippi to any old
place in Mississippi on the Mississ-
ippi, and then every citizen of Miss
issippi will be glad he lives in Miss
issippi, and has seen the Mississippi
silver service presented to the Miss
issippi by the citizens of Mississippi.
