SOME STORIES
AROUND TOWN

The career of Mr.. Fayette Greif as
l"United States senator" was a brief
one, and, although 1t might not be
real, he has had the happy expert
ence of the officials thinking he was
one. Mr.. Greif attended the inaugu-
ration in Washington, and on the
cold, bleak inauguration day was
Sightseeing. He was in the senate
building when he noticed a stream OF
men fiocking towards one door. Nat
urally he followed them. At the
doorway each man was halted b.
guards, and one man said Della
ware" and he was admitted, a second
'hurriedly said pennsylvania" and
he. too, was admitted. Mr.. Greif
watched the men and a third respond
ed Missouri" and he walked in.
That was getting near home. and MI.
Greif remembered he was from a
state. and Kentucky was just as COOL
as any. Calmly Mr.. Greif walked to
the door and when the guard halted
him he responded Kentucky" That
was sufficient and he walked into a
large room filled with desks.
The room was well filled with men
and Mr.. Greif began satisfying his
curiosity by ascertaining just where
he was, for Mr.. Grief had outwitted
the guards of the senate chamber
door and gained entrance. The SEN
ators decided they could not put him
out, but before any action was neces-
sary Mr.. Greif remembered that he
was scheduled to march with the
Bradley club in the parade and ont
he bolted from the senate chambe:,
much to the apparent relief of the
men. ..i...

chamber he would had a choice sea.

The unequal match of a rooster
lighting a bulldog was witnessed yes

women did not exactly suit him.
With his feathers RULED he began on
the dog and with the combination of
sharp bill and two sharp spurs he
put the dog to flight. At times ths
fight was wavering between the fowl
and the quadruped, but the vigor of
the rooster wore out the tenacity of
the dog. Both fighters were well
used up after the bout. which was
for blood, but the chicken won and
had the joy of celebrating it,

REPUBLICAN, PROMISES

President Taft has signed that crazy
quilt measure know as the Payne tariff
bill. In statement issued Immediately
after attaching his signature to the bill,
The president intimates very clearly that
it was not the kind of bill he wanted,
but that it was the best he could get.
He says he signed it because he believes
it to he Il sincere effort of his party to
make downward revision, and to com
ply with the promises of the platform
rs he interpreted them in the campaign,
hut it is not a perfect tariff bill, or a
complete compliance with the promises
made. strictly interpreted.
A sincere effort to do thing counts
hut little when you have the power to
do thing and fail The republican
party had the power in each branch of
congress to revise the tariff in accord
;snce with the promises of the platform
NJ interpreted by President Taft during
The campaign and it's failure to do so is
IN evidence of it's bad faith to the
people.
President Taft says the bill is not in
compliance with the promises of the
platform and Senator Cummins, a re-
publican, said in the senate that it rep
resented ten per cent dividend OH
bankrupt stock. And he refused to take
the dividend when the party had the
power to redeem its promises in full.
Unless all signs fail there are breakers
ahead for the republicans in the next
rampaign. By that time, the iniquities
Of the Payne bill will be thoroughly
understood by the people.

PROOFS OF A THEORY

At has not been necessary to call in a

The public of the increased cost of liv.

been confirmed in the minds of those
most careless of pecuniary detail, by
The monthly grocery bill and the gen
Cral merchandise account.
In thirteen years the increase i'm the
cost OF living has been stupcndous, and
there has not been a commensurate in
crease in the earning capacity of the
'rmy of labor. Bread, which has SO
tong been the staff of life, in figure

than doubled in price since the year
400.

compiling their statistics and these are
their findings. TO families the signifi-

cheerfuIness and Mirth.

Il have always preferred cheerful.
ness to mirth. The latter 1 consider
as an act. the former as habit of the
mind. Mirth is short and transient,
cheerfulness fixed and permanent
Those are often raised into the great
est transports of mirth who are sub:
ject to the greatest depressions of mel
ancholy. On the contrary, cheerfulness.
though it does not give the mind such
exquisite gladness, prevents us from
falling into any depths of sorrow.
Mirth Is like flash of lightning that
breaks through a gloom of clouds and
glitters for moment; cheerfulness
keeps up a kind Of daylight in the
mind and fills it with steady and per.
petual serenity. Joseph Addison.

Nature study is teaching the youth

to hand, to the end that his life may
be fuller and richer, writes Prof: L. H.
Bailey of Cornell university. Nature
study is not to be taught for the pur.
pose of making the youth g. specialist

"Whi,ed S.pulehres"

The great city to which the eyes of
the civilized world are at the present
time 50 anxiously directed, CONSTANT
nople, is-from a distance-perhaps the
most beautiful city to be found any
where upon the face of the earth.
Approached from the sea, especially at
sunset. it is indeed fascinating and
attractive spectacle. The slender,
tapering ninarets and rounded domes
of innumerable mosques-there are
, several hundreds of them-towering
upward to the sky, are lighted up with
roseate glow, some of the latter ap-
parently covered with FURNISHED brass,
which glitters strangely in the hori-
zontal rays of the setting sun; while the
windows of the extensive mansions and
lofty buildings on each side of the road
stead glisten and sparkle with vivid
fiery glow: the fine hospital above the
graveyard of Scutori, where lie the
remains Of so many brave British
soldiers who died of wounds and disease
in the Crimean war, appearing as if a
crimson fire were raging within its
walls. In the Golden Horn and in the
Bosphorus- lovely channel border
ed on each side by gardens, and forests,
and ornate villas with grounds sloping
down to the water-heets of feluccas
and other craft lie at anchor, adding to
the interest Of the scene.
But upon landing, what transfer
nation! Instead of beauty and grace,
squalor, miro and garbage. The mar
row streets reeking in malodours; some
nearly ankle.deep in fetid mud; unclean
mongrel dogs-the scavengers of the
city-trooping about in droves and
raking out and devouring the putrid
offal; dilapidated, mud despatched
houses with broken windows and
decaying woodwork though it is fair
to admit that a few of the streets in the
better portion of the city are kept in
somewhat better order-while crowds
of human beings, nearly all men, SLOUGH
along, some of them clothed-if such a
term can be used-in patchwork and
rags. Even in the squares facing some
of the mosques-and some of these are
certainly most ornate and handsome
erections, the internal decorations of
the mosque of st. Sophia especially
being magniicent-pools of stagnant
water are allowed to tester in the sun,
and to provide congenial breeding
ground for mosquitoes; while road
making is apparently scorned with
disdain.
And ever there have been of our
selves those who are like whited
sepulchres, beautiful outwardly, but
full of all uncleanness." But there is O
fountain opened for sin upon the cross
by the Saviour of the world: and, in the
words of the old hymn, SINNERS
plunged beneath that flood, lose all
their guilty stains" For by that Atone
ment all who will but accept the
benefits offered are Justified from all
things. BY Banker.
