Make the Most Of Exsrxthlnu.

A man who knows the world will
not only make the most of everything
he does know, but of many things he
does not know; and will gain more
credit by his adroit mode Of hiding
ignorance than the pedant by his
awkward attempt to exhibit his cru
dition.-Colton.

Throughout the United States there
is one licensed physician to every
700 persons; in New York state, one
to 672, and in New York city, one to
653. The income of physicians varies

tient an amount equal to five years.

WIDOW ON FILE:-Who wants a
widow? There is one that wants TO
be wanted. She heard that the
government sometimes furnished
wives to foreign immigrants, and so
wrote asking that they give her to
some fellow quick. Her name will be
furnished to any honest applicant
who writes immigration Commissioner
Williams.
LEAD TWO LIvES:-A remarkable
case has come to light Of an Illinois
Judge who led double life. Once
in a while he forgets himself and
goes off and gets work as a day la
borer, tho he is a rich man. He does
not remember anything about his
home or office OF wealth, but
wanders around as a poor man. Al
ter a while a friend will find him,
and under medical treatment his
memory comes back. This has hap
pened several times.
REVOLT DEAD:--The Spanish re-
bellion is over, the loyal troops havin
drowned II In blood.
ALABAMA AWFUL DRY;-A new
prohibition law has gone into effect
in Alabama which stops the selling
OF near-beer, and the use OF liquors
in clubs and private homes. The state
is about as dry as possible Just now.
VIRGINIA PRIMARY:-The vote
cast in the Democratic primary in
Virginia was the lowest In years
and Republicans are greatly encour-
aged, as they believe this means that
many Democrats do not intend TO
support the nominee.

Mass. where he will spend the sum

ASHES SCATTERED IN LAKE,
Under the will Of Mrs Rosa Peyton,
who died In Chicago lately, her body
was burned to ashes. and these were
taken out and scattered in the lake.
Her husband was drowned there. and
his body was never recovered. She
wished to lie as near him as che
could and took this means OF doing

STRIKE HURTS SWEDEN: - A
strike of almost all the trades of the
whole country OF Sweden has nearly
brought that country to the verge Of
destruction. The government has TAX
en- charge OF the milk supply. the
bakeries are out OF business. no
trains are running. and there Is hardly
food enough In the cities TO keep the
people alive.
JOHNSON BEATEN: Tom
Johnson OF Cleveland has finally been
beaten In his plans to get three-cent
fares. Everything went well till his
plan was tried. but Il gave such poor
service that no one was satisfied. |
So now the plan has been voted
down at the polls. II is expected
that Johnson will be beaten in his
race for reelection, and so will be
eliminated from politics.
HOTTEST DAY:-Last Sunday was

One of the most successful meetings
of the Berea Fair Association was
that which closed last Saturday after
three days show. The meeting was
very well attended, the exhibitions
we're large and choice and the wea-
Their all that could be desired, and
general satisfaction with the fair
and its management was expressed
on all sides.
Especial attention had been paid
by the management to getting fair
and competent judges for the differ
emit contests, and that their efforts
were successful was shown by the
general agreement in the awards.
Hardly protest was heard any
where, and II was universally agreed
that the awards we're honestly made
and In general, deserved.
The balloon ascensions were a great
drawing card, and we're much enjoy
ed. That OF the first day, especially,
was alone well worth the price of
admission.
The order maintained was first
class, and only one disturbance mar
red the occasion. There was little
evidence of whiskey anywhere and
no sign at all of any on the grounds.
Toward the close Of the first day
Alex Coyle, however, got some some
where, and made quite a little trouble.
He began shooting, and was arrest
ed and disarmed by Edw. Anderson,
but made such fight that It took
the combined efforts OF several Off
GERS TO get him off the grounds.
A little complaint was heard that
there were evidences of a revival OF
the gambling which has been so care
fully excluded by the management for
some years. II is almost impossible
to entirely prevent betting at any
public occasion, and there may have
been some gamblers who managed
TO get past the management, but IL
can safely be asserted that IL any
gambling took place It was against
the desires and efforts of those In
charge. The fact that there was COM
plant will lead to even greater pre-
cautions next year.
Altogether the fair was entirely
enjoyable and satisfactory. and the
association is TO be congratulated on
the ability and efficiency of its Of
ficers. The full list of premium aw-
ards follows:

FIND COAL FRAUDS IN ALASKA.
Ballinger to Begin Prosecution in
Seattle Shortly.

Investigations that have been under
way for some time-which have been
laid before Secretary of the Interior
Ballinger and Commissioner Fred Den
nett of the General Land Office-will
unquestionably prove one of the great
est scandals in connection with land
fraud Investigations ever brought to
light by the General Land Office.
1t is known that in the valuable
coal fields of Alaska many thousand
acres of land have been fraudulently
filed upon and attempts made to force
the department, through financial, po-
litical and even social pressure, to pat
ent these lands. Secretary Ballinger
and Commissioner bennett have evil
dence showing unlawful combination
of nearly 500 coal entries in Alaska
Commissioner bennett, while in Den
yer recently, it is understood, said
these entries would be cancelled To
that end hearings will shortly begin,
and the General Land Office has as
signed its best coal engineers and law
yers to Seattle to aid in the coming
trial
Several railroad corporations owned
in New York, Boston and Philadelphia
are making indirect efforts to delay
these land hearings. hoping that the
next Congress will pass legislation to
permit of greater consolidation of coal
entries or else pass curative act le-
