When the frost Is on the windows
and the kitchen pail is froze; when
the little icy needles come with every
wind that blows; when chilblains make
us sick and cold feet give us pain;
Us safe to bet we all wish for sum-
mer days again. For while we swear
and fume around i'm summer clothes;
it is an easy thing to cool off, as
everybody knows. But it's different
in the winter. when the world is full
of ice, and the weather is as hard
to beat as a pair of loaded dice. We
may talk about our climate and about
our spring and fall, but the balmy
days of summer are the days that suit
us all.

that he was shot. Upon examination

through the temple and out behind

as yet serious wound.
In the meantime the police and
others were searching for the direc-

was found that a shot had been fired
from w. p. Rogcrs's livery stable,
across the street, directly in front OF
Stackley's store.
Rogers, it Is stated, had been
drinking during the evening and had
become enragcd with some one at his

Rogers was at once placed under

OF firing the gun. Rogers children
were arrested as witnesses and were
also locked up.

be expected and will get along All

TAFT "CTrERLY HOPELESS"
The Country Is Saving Itself from

Zach McGee, in The State.)

Washington, May S.--The utter
'hopelessness' of President Taft
seems to grow on Washington from
day to day. If the country were not
so thoroughly awake there Is no tell
ing what vicious legislation might get
through Congress, not that Mr.. Taft
Is himself vicious or corrupt or yet
aligned with those that are, but that
he Is as near to absolute insanity as
IT is possible for a man in the White
House to be. poor fellow! If he
were not a tragedy. he would be a
joke.' expresses the sentiment which
seems to pcrvade the atmosphere.
And with such a man in the White
House and the established habit, bad
rs 1t is, Of legislating, according to
some administration program, there
are those in Congress, of whom Aid
rich and Cannon are the most con-
sDicuous types, though not personally
the worst men in Congress, who
would pass through what the rail
roads. the powerful and plundering
banks Of New York. the grating
manufacturing interests Of New Eng
land and the Middle West want. But
fortunately the people are alive to
the situation and they are calling on
their Congressman to vote down the
so-called Taft program. Whereupon
these congressman, enough Republi-
cans at least uniting with the Demo-
Gratis to kill the vicious railroad leg
iSlation.
And so the Taft "policies' are go
ing to fall. Already the railroad bill
has been dcnatured, and it looks now
as If the whole thing is going to be
killed.

The country for miles around was
laid waste and many small dwellings,
in the city OF Hull, on the side near

less bodies were lying about ammoe
scores Of unconscious forms.
The terrific shock brought thou
sands OF terror-stricken people into
the streets Of Hull Some thought IL
was an earthquake, while other cried
out that Hallcy's comet had struck
the earth.

placed the number OF dead at Is and
injured at SO.
