Habitual Criminals.

Most scrimes-thefts, burglaries as- saults. etc,-are committed by small number of professional criminals. They adopt crime as a career. It is their means of livelihood They are caught, sent to prison and return when they come out to the same law less career. They become so expert that they commit many crimes before they are caught In prison they are artful hyocrites, becoming quite sane timonious and earning good characters from the governor and chaplain-in order to get out sooner.-Lloyd's News.

Be natural Do not try to im- press people with your importance. If you are really of importance they will find it out. If you are of no account you will not deceive anyone by acting as though great interests rested in your keeping The day of pomposity is past, we hope never to return. More pee pie than ever before are intelligent and able to judge those with whom they come in contact. This means that they are able to judge you and place a true rather than false es- innate on your abilities.

 An exchange says that alcohol will remove grass stains from sum mer clothes. The exchange is right. It will also remove summer clothes and also spring and winter clothes, not only from the man who drinks it. but also from his wife and children. It will remove household furniture from the house eatables from the pantry; the smiles from the face of his wife, and the happiness from his home. As a remover of things alcohol has few equals.

RUDOWITZ SAVED
BY ROOT EDICT
Secretary Refuses to Allow slav Fu-
gitive to Be Sent Back to Russia
Denies Extradition.

Washington. Jan. Christian
Rudowitz. whose extradition on
charges of MURDER arson and other
crimes was demanded by the Russian
government, and involving counter
contentious that the offenses were
in furtherance of a political move
ment, will not be extradited This de-
clsion was announced yesterday by
Secretary of State Root.
In effect the eXtradition of Rudowitz
was refused because the offense
charged comes under the general pro-
Mbition against extradition in the
treaty with Russia, which declares
: that II 1t be made to appear that ex-
tradition is sought with the view to
try or punish for an offense of a po-
htical character surrender shall not
take place. The testimony taken in
the case by United States Commits
sioner Foote at Chicago, it was held,
upholds the view taken by the de-
partment, though the commissioner
upheld the Russian governments de-
mand. Secretary Root declined to
SoLiiiiSHl VII lue ueClSlOu at uHlS llIn6
pending formal notification to the Rus
sian authorities of the departments
decision.
The decision followed a thorough in
vestigation of the case by the govern
ment, hearing at Chicago before
United States Commissioner Foote,
and review of his decision by the state
department. Vigorous efforts were
made to prevent extradition on the
ground that the offenses charged
were political and therefore not ex-
traditable.
The case aroused widespread inter-
est, particularly in Chicago among the
anti-Russian element, where a fund
was raised in defense of the man.
Commissioner Foote sent the record
IN the case to Washington about
month ago. With the various accom-
panying documents and his decision
there were probably 1,4O0 pages of
typewriter sheets, which were read
by the clerks of the solicitors office
OF the state department.

GETS TREATY; QUITS
Question Of Newfoundland
Fisheries Settled.
SECRETARY ROOT RESIGNS
Because of Election to Senate from
New York Cabinet Official Tenders
Observation-Disclosures Is Basis
of Agreement.

Washington, Jan. 26.-An agreement
Root and the British and Canadian
and Newfoundland governments
through their representatives, on the
Newfoundland fisheries question to
be submitted to The Hague court for
arbitration.
The agreement was reached yeSter.
day at conference between Ambas.
sador Bryce, representatives of Ca
madam and Newfoundland govern
ments and Secretary Root. The result
of the negotiations was Immediately
cabled to the home governments with
view TO formal approval of the ques-
tons to be arbtrated. Mr.. Root hoped
to go before the senate foreign rela-
tons committee to-day and explain it's
provisions.
Root Resigns as Secretary.
Secretary of State Root has ten
dered to President Roosevelt his res
ignation, effective upon qualification
of his successor, Robert Bacon, whose
nomination, along with that of j. c.
OLoughlin to be assistant secretary
of state in place of Mr.. Bacon, went
to the senate yesterday.
The announcement was made at the
White House yesterday by Secretary
Root as he was about to call on the
president. The secretary, having been
elected United States senator by the
New York legislature, will resign his
cabinet portfolio as soon as the treaty
is signed.
The agreement between the princi-
pals at 1890 a. m. followed pro-
tracted conferences Sunday, during
the day and evening. The treaty will
have to be sent to the United States
senate for ratification. The conclusion
of the negotiations is viewed with ex-
IRENE satisfaction by Secretary Root
and the British and colonial officers.
Long Cause of Trouble.
Like the waterways controversy be-
tween Canada and the United States,
the Newfoundland fisheries dispute
has been the subject of diplomatic ne
gotiations and treaties for many years.
Questions which The Hague will be
asked to interpret arise under the
execution of article one of the treaty
of October 20, 1918, and in deciding
the controversial points the tribunal
will have to pass ON very broad and
important question as to whether
state or colonial laws or regulations
may Interfere with the terms of a
treaty. The latter question con-
fronted the administration in a most
perpleXing way in the Japanese school
question and threatens to become an
important factor in case the bills
pending before the California legisla-
ture affecting the japanese become

So Says New Yorker In Testimony in

ing its inquiry yesterday into the al
legged libelous articles in the New
York World and the Indianapolis Star
affecting the Panama canal purchase,

Whitley of New York city, former
employee of the New York World. Be-
fore undergoing his examination Mr..
Whitley was in consultation with Dis
trict Attorney Baker for a consider
able time. Neither he nor Mr.. Baker
carried any papers before the jury.

nal stories in the World the manage
ment of the paper knew that they
would render themselves liable to
prosecution
