GOVERNOR STUDIES Of KANSAS

Governor Walter Roscoe Stubbs who was re-
nominated at the Republican primaries of the
state has had short career in politics, compared
with most leaders. It is only seven years since
he began to interest himself at all actively In
public affairs, and now the governors ambition is
to succeed Senator Charles Curtis, whose term
expires in March, 1913, and whose successor will
be chosen two years hence.
Stubs is red headed, like that other insurgent
leader of Kansas Republicans Victor Murdoch.
Red hair means energy. Oddly enough, he comes
of Quaker stock. His parents, who lived in Rich
mond, Ind, when he was born, were very poor.
Now ffty-two years old, the governor is wealthy
as result of many years Of hard work a con-
tractor, mostly in railroad building Thus he has

BoIEs PENRosE SPRINGS THIS.

Senator Boies Penrose, at a dinner
at the Philadelphia club. said of a
movement that he opposed:
1t promises incredible things. In
fact, it makes me think of Jack Trav-
ers Of Pike county.
Jack is an old man now. He re-
members the time when bears were as
plentiful on the barren mountains az
rattlers still are. once, when I was
tishing at Portland lake, asked him IL
he had ever had any remarkable ad-
ventures with bears.
We'll, no SENATOR said the old
man as he filed his pipe with cut
plug; i can't say as ] ever had much
to do with the bears hereabouts.
Wunst in my sparkin' days, me and a
bear got together-twan't nothin,
though.
" IL all come about over old Sukey

In out late at night. Then I'd have
to go to the woods and fetch her home

THE old COW showed fight. She
