Shovelfuls of Admiration.

For the snob does not want to be
great himself He has no desire to wrest
the tiara from your distinguished brow.
He does not even wish to bask I'm your
smiles. All that he wishes is to be near
you. He is well rewarded If you throw
him a bone--I mean a look now and then.
And for this LOOK he will reward you
with shovelfuls of admiration. You say
you don't want his admiration? oh, but
YOU soon will. II is astonishing how
quickly great and distinguished persons
get used TO shovelfuls OF admiration. In
reed, the time will come when even the
snob will be unable to pile the shovel
high enough up for you. Be rude to
him. of course but don't he too rude!
The snob must not be COMPOUNDED with
the slave For the slave Is one who is
born with the useful instinct to work
for others without thanks. Usually the
slave is sullen, for he naturally feels that
working for others without even thanks
Is not such a great catch after all.
Indeed, the snob feels more above the
slave even than does the great and dis
tinguished person. And the snob is never
sullen. He Is the most cheerful and
good humored turnkey In existence.
Though you would hardly think IL,
the snob is in way good sort. II

Louisville, Nov. 1.-The condition of John Woodward, president of the Merchants National Bank, New AL bany, and James Tucker. the negro chauffer, who were wounded yester- day by Thomas Hall, the boy bandit, Of Louisville, in the la5ter's sensa- tional attempt to rob the bank. is practically unchanged today
 President Woodward is in a serious condition and physicians are inclined to be non-commttal on the case.
 The negro is not expected to live
 Hall, the bandit, who will have to answer later for the murder of Faw- cett, cashier of the bank, takes his arrest coolly.
 The boy s father says the lad is not insane. He is just mean" says he. His attempt to emulate his ideal of dime novel heroes is the only ex- planation for Halls deed advanced this far by the police.
 When the robber reached the auto mobile after leaving the bank, where he had killed the cashier and wounded the president, he commanded the ne- gro to drive on, but he was so badly frightened that he refused to move.
 Without further barley the robber jumped to the ground drew his re- volver and sent bullet in to the ne- groe's head. The man ran to the river and jumped into skiff, but was captured by the police. When the police reached the shore a mob formed and with difficulty they got him to the New Albany jail, where it was soon surrounded by constant ly growing mob. Fearing the mob would succeed in getting the prisoner he was hurried in fast automobile to the state reformatory at Jefferson vile.

Seattle, Wash. June President
Taft in the White House at o'clock
this afternoon pressed a telegraph key
of Alaska gold and sent a spark across
the continent that put in motion the
wheels of the Alaska Yukon-Pacific
exposition, loosed the waters of its
fountains, unfurled it's banners, started
its bands playing, released showers of
daylight fireworks, called on the salut-
ing guns of the American and Japanese
fleets, set all the steamers in the har-
Dor and all the locomotives in the rail-
road yards believing and shrieking and
brought forth universal rejoicing from
all Seattle which had toiled for years
to bring about this day.
The exercises at the Worlds fair
grounds preceding the presidents
signal yere carried out with military
precision. The exposition gates were
opened at $3.50 o'clock. At $3.50 troops
from the United States army and navy,
the japanese cruisers Aso and Zoya
and the state militia paraded through
the grounds under the command OF
Colonel T. c. Woodbury., U. s. A, and
the column was reviewed from stand
at the head of the court of honor by
exposition officials, visiting governors
and Admirals H. Ijichi and Urlel Sc
bree.
The ceremonial exercises were held in
a vast amphitheater, sloping to Lake
Washington. The stage of this theater
seats 1900 persons and is located at

pal Bishop Frederick w. Keator.
Then just before noon, Pacific time,
word was flashed to the White House
that all was ready and President Taft's
response set loose the flags bells, ma
chinery, curious Japanse fireworks and
noise. When this was announced a

AIdrich Gives the Senators an Intima-
ton of What Is Coming.

washington. June Apparently the
senate is upon the eve of night sessions
for the consideration of the tariff Dill.
senator AIdrich, chairman of the COM
n,fttee on finance, indicated in an Of
fetal way today his intention of asking
for such sessions by presenting a reso-
lution providing that, beginning Tues
10:3 20 a. M and continue until IL p. M,
with an internission of two and
half hours for dinner.
Senator Culberson, the Democratic
cal1cus leader. prevented an immediate
consideration Of the resolution by max
ing an objection, forcing it over until
tomorrow Mr. Aldrich, however, gave
notice that he would move a recess at
$40 today until 1920 a. m. tomorrow
with the intention of then asking for
night sessions and the carrying out
thereafter of the programme as ind1-
Gated in his resolution. There is no
doubt that the Republican majority, in
cluding the progessives, will support
him in his proposition.
During the discussion caused by the
resolution Mr.. Aldrich stated that un-
less greater progress should be made
during the next week longer hours
would be necessary. Senator Bailey
characterized the remarks of the chair
man of the finance committee as
threat but Mr. Aldrich declared that
such was not the case, and in support
OF his declaration called the senate to
witness the fact that there had been
no effort to curtaiI debate on the tariff.
Senator Martin suggested that business
might be accelerated by the early re-
porting of the finance committees rec
concentrations on hides, wood pulp.
zinc. lumber and coal. to which Mr.
Aldrich nodded assent.

ENDS WITH BARBECUE.
Ceremony of Presenting Silver Service
to the Mississippi.

Pascagoula, Miss. June with the
big battleship Mississippi riding at an
chor u miles south of this port, sew
eral thousand citizens of the state
whose name the vessel bears, gathered
on the shore here today and present
ed to her officers and crew, the silver
service which the people of this COM
monwealth purchased through popular
subscription.
1t was originally planned to make the
presentation on board of the battle
ship. but fast running seas made nav
igation for small excursion boats dan
gerous.
Fearful of storms and other dangers
that might arise, Captain Fremont was
unwilling to leave his ship and the sill
yer service was accepted by Lieuten-
ant Commander Benjamin J. McCor-
mick in the name of Captain Fremont,
the officers and crew. Mrs. Eunice
Miller Lockwood a daughter of Lieu
tenant Miller, who commanded the con-
federate shore batteries. that sank the
old battleship Mississippi at Port Hud-
son, during the civil war, made the
presentation. 1t was principally
through Mrs. Lockwood's efforts that
the fund to purchase the silver SER
vice was raised.
An old-fashioned Mississippi barbecue
at Moss Point concluded the ceremon-
les.
