preference for Hearst for governor in 1906, when, as they still allege, Murphy and his allies had to turn regularly elected delegates out of the Buffalo con ventipn to defeat Sulzer and nominate Hearst
 Sulzer, by the way, bids fair to be man of wealth In a few years, as he has large ngs in Alaska which are developing well.
 amp Clark, the minority leader, and Sulzer are not on the best of terms, and it Is learned that after all Champ Clark's bluff he really indorsed Burton Harrison for the ways and means committee over Sulzer. Under existing conditions, there fore, Sulzers friends say he does not ex- pect to make good showing in the House and would prefer another field of political endeaVOr.

MAJOR BURKE ON HAM AND.' Boomer of the "Bill" Show Tells How
 Such a Diet Nearly Brought Ruin.

From the New York Morning Telegraph.
 Gimme anything but ham and eggs said Major Burke the other night as he glowered darBly at menu card.
 You know" said Major Burke, i've felt hostile toward ham and eggs for years. Ham and eggs came near break ing up the Bill Show one time.
 We were over in England for months drifted across into Germany and were playing France when everybody suddenly mutinied.

He has car ried loads that the average man could not shoulder. He has made work a play and has played hard at that
 When MT. Dickinson was first mentioned to succeed Gen. Luke E. Wright, a news paper man approached close of friend of the new secretary and said:
 q have never heard very much about MT. Dickinson, except in his legal work and of the important cases in which he has been interested. Tell me some of tho snappy things you know of him, some of the anecdotes about him. They would snliyen the pages and let the people know more about him from the pleasant side"
 Why, my boy" replied the friend of MT. Dickinson. Mac Dickinson don't an- ecdote. I don't know anything funny about him. He has never had time to make anything funny. He's a good fel- low and can be jolly as any boy, but he is so full of work that have never seen anything else about him. He has been ex- posed to only one germ in his life and that took He has been suff ering with the disease ever since. That's work do not believe anything else could have any effect on him for he would outwork it."

 Secretary Dickinson was born at Colum- bus, Miss, on January 30, 1851. His moth CT was Miss Anna McGavock, and his fa- ther Henry Dickinson, at one time one of the best known cnancellors in the state of Mississippi His grandfather was Felix Grllndy one of the only attOrney-gen- early life was in surroundings of comfort and culture. As young man his wealth was not great. His father and grand father before him had been in the law, and so young Dickinson naturally turned to that field At the age of 20, after hav- ing served three months in the Confed- crate army, he was graduated from the University of Nashville The next year

been friend of Roosevelt and am a great admirer of President Taft. I did oppose the democrats in the last campaign, for, like many southern men, l disapproved of their policies. To say that MT. Taft has invited me into his cabinet for the sake of breaking the solid south does him a great injustice. I do not expect to be clerk or filler-in. I believe MT Taft expects my advice and service-service that I can do without putting part of the burden upon other shoulders-in fact, to help him carry his. I shall do my part in the cabinet work for the north, the sol1th and the whole country"

illustrated In a scene accompanying the opening of subscriptions for stock in a coal mining company organized by him. The day the subscription book was opened people hocked to the office and fought with each other in their efforts to enter and get their names recorded. One man who had subscribed for a large amount of the stock. after getting away from the crowd, came back, and walking up to Mr. Morse, said: "I say, MT. Morse, was that gold or coal stock I subscribed for?"

 Mississippi WAS A RAILROAD LAWYER His Friends Say He Does Not "Aneo- dote"-Great Lover of Horses.
 Caught Germ of One Dis

WAS A RAILROAD LAWYER

From the New York Post
 Hello, Jim, bless your old heart, I am glad to see you. I almost thought you were not going to speak to me-"
 "Iowdy, Mac, howdy. To tell you the truth l WAS just thinking what I was a. going to call you. did not know whether to call you Mac-like 1t used to be back up there on the hill-or General Dickin- son. or MT. Secretary. Honest, l didn't. But since you got me started I want to tell you that I am right glad to shake your hand. It seems like you have been steppin' about since you left Columbus. Here you are about to be a republican and take a place in Taft's cabinet. Is that straight, Mac? Honest, have you turned republican sure enough ?'
 Don't worry, Jim, don't worry I am still democrat"
 ''But what about that talk of you going into the cabnet?'
 There seems to be little truth in it. Jim. But I am still democrat. MT. Taft is not weighing the matter that way.
 Well, 1 guess we'll see mighty little of you after this. You will be still higher up in C., and your old friends won't get much show, I guess"
 "Oh. l guess you will see me as often now as you have for the past few years, Jim. You see it will not be the style that will affect me. It will be the vast amount of work, just like I have been having to do since have been a railroad attorney, that will keep me from visit ing my friends often"
 So was Jacob McGavock Dickinson the present secretary of war in the Taft cab inet, greeted, and so did he respond to the greeting by friend of the old school days. when he paid a recent visit to Co., lumbus, Miss, the place of his birth and early training. Without affectation and with terseness that makes his nearer believer, the new secretary met his old
 hoolmate. He did not wait for an old 'd to call him by distinguished Harul nor did he overflow with explana- tons He is not effusive. He explained as s-sr 'ug to his friend in a few words,
 nQ th5t friend knew that what Mac NchHa7H d was about that way"
