Man whose Acute Sense of Smell
Brought Him Large Income
Dead at Lexington.

LEXINGTON, Ky, March 15.-Patrick
Lamphear, one Of the most widely known
Bourbon whiskey experts of America, died

quet OF the man with the golden nose"
Mr.. Lamphear because of his many years
OF study and experience and his acute
sense of smell became so proficient in dis
eliminating between the delicate aromas
which arise from old liquors that he became
wonderfully expert in detecting the dis
tinguished fragrance of the various brands
and II was claimed he could tell by their
odor the age and brand of the different
whistles. He was born in ireland Go years
ago. Pneumonia was the cause of his
death.

1.-The executive committee Of the Ameri-
can Irrigation Federation of which / am

a general provision in our irrigation
statutes. A law to prevent anyon from i'm
pounding and holding water in excess of
their needs. Water is too vital an element
to be held in storage when homemakers

John McAlpine, Minnesota, and c. +.

There are some vague, or inexplicit
points in the bill" he continued, that
might be rectified. 1t was probably in
tended that these features were In the Dill,
but IL is not clearly expressed. The law
should provide that notice be served upon
the primary applicant. whenever anyone
applies for a secondary permit.
Then again, when lands are supplied by
an appropriation which the owner thereof
deems an Insufficient supply anu hS iSiN
a supplemental appropriation from the
reservoir of another, the owner OF the
reservoir shall have first right to make the
application to furnish the supplemental
supply The government, having the best
reservoir sites in Nebraska, will thus be
enabled to supply such other canals as may
be short of water, and reduce the expense
to the water users under its own project,
The amendment already proposed are
not curative. Limiting the acreage of any
one applicant for a secondary permit to
$50 acres will work only in small reservoirs.
Where there is a capacity of 5000 to 10000
acre feet and more 1t would be impractical
to enter upon and improve. increase the

to furnish United States bonds as security

bonds other than those of the United

the smallest amount OF United States

by shifting the responsibility upon
President Roosevelt and the United
States. From one end of the Empire
to the other, any regard the japanese
had previously felt for our government
was turned to hatred.
How much of this feeling has died
out don t know" Mr.. Hosmer says.
The leaders know that Japan is in no
condition at the present time to go to
war with the United States. Whether
the people Of Japan know it is ques.
ton. The seizure of Hawaii by Japan
would help to efface the memory of the
other attempt that failed and it would
precipitate war that would give the
people of Japan an opportunity to
avenge themselves for their fancied
wrongs by the treaty of Portsmouth,
if the masses now entertain the same
views held few years ago.
Territorial acquisitions are what
Japan is looking for now to retrieve its
financial losses, and as long as Hawaii
is where it is-right at home from the
japanese standpoint, so to speak-the
Mikado S empire must always covet its
possession by the United States. -

single boots. Beneath the shop, in the
cellar, are many thousands of odd boots
shoes and slippers. Bins are chockful
of every kind of footwear, from ward
shoes and dancing pumps to navvies'
ponderous hobnailed earth crushers and
the rubber boots worn by sewer men,
from "Tiny Tops" ''frsts' to the
giant S No. Us. There are football
elastic side, blucher and Wellington
boots; boots of all the colors, materials,
and sizes in the trade. And yet there
is not a pair together anywhere. These
can not be found even on the shelves
above the bins. Here are the usual
lines of cardboard boxes, each of which
apparently contains a pair of boots,
ready to be taken away by a customer,
but, though there are two boots in it,
they are both either ''lefts'' or
"rights' of the same size.
This huge assemblage of "odds''
consists largely of bankrupts' stocks,
etc, though a surprisingly large pro-
portion is made up of travellers sam
pies. A traveller will, OF leaving head
quarters for the north, take fright -
while its fellow, Cleft will accom-
pany a man who works the west of
England. So they are separated for
ever. Both ultimately reach the Mecca
of the one-lgged, but not in company.
From the shop the ''odds' 60 far
and wide. Many are purchased by or
on behalf of the one-legged. From
here is supplied certain school for
crippled girls, the manager sending for
three or four single boots at once,
while for a lady in Canada some
friends living in London purchase
single boots and send them to her.
Among our customers" said the
manager, care some who have come
here regularly for twenty or thirty
years, because by dealing with us they
save money. We can supply a single
boot for man as low as 1Sd. Now
you go to an ordinary shop and you II
have to pay as much or nearly as
much for one boot as for a pair. Sc
customers have stuck to us from the
time when they wanted children :
sizes to now that they want adults ,
Our old customers include several one
legged cyclists, who buy single cycling
shoes as well as single boots''
But all the "odds" are not pur-
/ chased by or on behalf of the one
legged. Many are ultimately worn
by those with the normal number of
neither limbs. 1t is daily occurrence
for a person to turn up with a boot
| or shoe and require it to be matched
because the other has been lost OF
accidentally destroyed. Sometimes the
customer, in taking home pair OF
! new boots has lost one of them. Al
| others, boot has been lost during q

partly incinerated. Every mother
knows, again, how adept children are
at kicking off shoe which disap-
pears forthwith. So there is a steady
demand for single boots and shoes
merely to replace those which have
been lost or destroyed and to make
of service such as are on hand.
Thousands of pairs are, however,
made up of boots which are, strictly,
odd. One may be 6 and the other

great is the rush for these more or
