London. Jan. 15.-Irish noble
men, most of whose ancestors ac-
quired their estates at the price of
their treason, are profiting by the op-
erations of the land purchase act.
The Earl OF Arran. who owns the
ancient historic town of Donegal,
gracefully submitting to the law, has
agreed to sell the town to his ten
ants. The Earl absolutely owns the
entire town, with almost feudal pow
er to evict any and all the residents.
Unlike the hated Marquis of Clanrl-
carde. the Earl of Arran, in obeylng
the compulsory purchase law. has all
ready permitted the tenants of his
farms to purchase them at reasonable
prices. Tempted by the Earl's sales
of his rural lands, the lessons of every
house in Donegal have petitloned the
Earl to sell the city to them. The
Earl has consented. and the news
came as pleasant Christmas gift
to the people OF the ancient city.
The Earl has agreed to sell his
town property TO the tenants for a
price equalling twenty-five years rent,
which is about the average price the
Irish landlords are getting for farm
ing lands The Earl, moreover,
rather generously agrees to accept
n small cash installment, the remain
der payable within twenty-five years,
with interest at per cent Some Of
his lordshlp's tenants thought twenty
years rent sufficient price, but this
the Earl declined, and the tenants
now agree to pay the twenty-five
years. rental II he will pay the cost
OF legal transfer, and this he will do.
Donegal is one OF the most plctur-
esuue towns in Ireland. and It's resi-
dents now for the first time feel like
freemen. with the privilege of owning
their own homes and shops.

NO FLAT FOOT"
IS PRESIDENT
TAFTS PEDALS PERFECT
SAYS ORTHOPEDIC EXPERT
Doctor Wanted TO Make Special Shoe
for Executive TO be, but Found that
Invention Was not Needed-Presi-
dents Great Weight Had Not
Broken Instep-Discovery Made as
Result of Favor Asked by Political
Friend Before Election.

Augusta, Ca, Jan. 15.-It became
publicly known for the first time to-
day that the president elect is nc
''flat-foot." This interesting piece of
information was brought to light by
the arrival here of DR.. Anson c.
Cook, of Hartford. Conn, an ortho-
pedic expert. The story, as told by
Mr.. Taft, has its beginning way back
in the campaign. He has a promi-
nent political friend in Connecticut,
This friend came to him with protes-
tations that he did not want a single
thing in the way Of political appoint
ments, and had no favors to ask-ex-
cept one.
Then he related to Mr.. Taft that
in his town was an expert orthope-
dist who was much interested in Mr..
Taft's feet, and declared that on ac-
count of his great weight he must be
"flat-foot," which, interpreted, was
said to mean that the cords of the
instep were laxed by the great strain
on them. Now, Dr. Cook, for he ia
the expert referred to, has perfected
shoe to remedy this defect. and he
wanted the honor of making pair
for Mr.. Taft. An engagement was
made. which resulted in plaster
cast being taken of each foot of the
president-elect while he was in New
York during the campaign.
The shoes were made, and tomor-
row morning they will be delivered
by DR.. Cook, but he has informed Mr..
Taft that his feet are perfect in form.
The shoe in question has its heel
thrown forward, so that in walking
the weight of the body is more evenly
on the foot.
