SENATOR GORE AT DAnvILLE.

Senator Gore of Oklahoma deliv-
cred stirring speech last Friday ev-
ening at Danville, H., the home of
Speaker Cannon, the occasion being
jackson day celebration by the
Democrats of vermillion county.
Pgefacing his remarks concerning
Mr.. Cannon, Senator Gore said that
he was placed in the position Of
Daniel in a lions den, but he appre-
iended that his escape from destruc-
fion would scarcely be as miraculous
as that OF the biblical hero.
Fights System, Not Cannon.
Il have "a due regard for the pro-
prieties of this place" said Mr.. Gore.
Il come neither to bury Cannon nor
to praise him. ! wage no war agains,
Cannon or against Aldrich as individ-
uais. but against Cannonism and AL
drfchism as system of misgovern-
ment. Personally wish them good
health and increase of days polite
ally wish dethronement unto them
and their dynasty.
If the reign of the standpat tyr
rany is to continue, have little
choice among the tyrants. Destroy
! the despotism If you would destroy
the despot. Cannon and Aldrich are.
indeed, the Apollyan in the path of
progress. The chosen champions of
privilege, the guiding genius of the
new administration. the friends and
favorftes OF the king. perched upor
the very arms Of the throne.
Roosevelt was able to run his adj
ADMINISTRATION without their domination
III seems that Mr.. Taft surrendered a,
sae first summons. Roosevelt In his
way was the friend of progress and
the foe OF privilege. and the people
may yet prefer the strenuosity of
Roosevelt to the sipn8sHy of Taaft.
They may yet conclude that the
hands are he hands of Esau, bnt the
voice Is Jacobs voice
Mould Aid the insurserts.
III seems that the war against pro-
gress and the proeressives is to be
fought Under d black flag obedience

SAVANT URGES WOMEN
TO WALK IN SANDAL S
Barefoot in House Would Im=
prove Lower Extremities

LONDON, April 16.-Professor Re-
dorta of Bellinzena has been making a
study of the feet of men and women of
past and present generations. Photo
graphs, paintings and statues have
guided him to his present conclusions
as well as the examination of the feet
of hundreds of men and women.
He declares that not one woman in a
score has perfect foot, owing to the
wearing of high heeled and pointed
toed shoes. Men have somewhat the
advantage in this respect, as they are
less under the sway of fashion as re-
CARDS their boots, and so have pre-
served the beauty of their feet more
fully.
Russian, German, American, Austrian
and Dutch women all have feet too
broad to be perfect, though in the case
of American women the feet are small
English women's feet are too narrow to
fulfill classical and healthy conditions
The women of the Latin races, exclud-
ing the French. have the best formed
and therefore the prettiest feet The
French woman has destroyed any SEM
blance to beauty in her feet by her alb
surd shoes.
The professor urges the abolition of
the modern boot and recommends
walking in sandals and going barefoot
in the house.

BARON'S DREAM OF LOVE
RUTHLESSLY SHATTERED
Elopes With Cousin to Be
Tilted and Robbed

PARIS, April 16.-There is material
for historic damour in the experience
which has just befallen young baron,
the heir to a name and a fortune. He
had spent most of his time in the an
cestral chateau and had, therefore, a
limited experience of human nature.
One fine day there arrived at the
chateau a beautiful girl in the person
of the baron's cousin. He at once fell
In love with her and sought his father s
consent to marry her. But the old
baron had other matrimonial projects
for his young hopeful. Though she
was well born, the beautiful cousin was
poor, and in the fond fathers eyes
poverty was bar to her marrying his
son.
The young baron did not agree with
his father. Three days later he eloped
with his cousin and came to Paris He
soon got through his money Then he
remembered that his father had an ae-
count with Paris bank He turned
up there and presented a check bear
ing what the bank officials believed to
be his fathers signature. 1t was a
check for SO 600, and this sum was paid
over to the young baron, who handed
it to his cousin for safety.
When he entered his hotel next
morning he was astonished on finding
that his sweetheart was not there He
instituted an Inquiry and learned that
the charming young cousin had eloped
with an instructor of roller skating
She had, of course, taken the $4,000
with her. The young baron robbed
and disillusionized at the same time,
had no other alternative but to confde
his misfortunes to the police commits
sary at the Bonne Nouvelle quarter
The commissary has promised the Woe
full lover to look for his cousin and his
money.
