MENTAL PICTURES.

When you take mental picturs
OF some fellow that you know,
You should get .he night perspective
Ere you let yOUr subject go.
Look at him from eTry angle,
Note his breadth and weight and height.
And be sure that you're not cross-eyed,
Or have trouble with your sight.
Size him mp, but do it kindly,
As you'd have him size up you.
just remember there are artists
Who can paint your picture, too.
Us not always fair 10 judgs him
By the garments he NAV wear,
Or the color of his whiskers.
Or the way he parts his hair.
These are all good indications.
Bat they sometim lesd astray;
Better base yOu- calculations
On what he may do or say
When you measure uo your neighbor.
Do not use a quarter peck:
p He may iii a coed half bUshel.
And run over quite a speck.
Neither should you take his measure
Win little two-inch rule:
You may need a fuilgruEn yardstick.
And then have 10 mount a stool.
When you put him In the balance.
Do not use a four-pound weight;
lie may pull a good two hundred
And have brains within his pate.
Don't regard friendly action
With suspicion and distrust
Some men love to do kindness,
It's inherent, and they must.
Don't attribute soriid motives
To the bearer Of q gift
IT'S form Of Jcve's expression,
Old as time, snd flies as swift.

OVERFLOW MEETING TO
HEAR DESMOND SPEAK

In spite of threatening weather last
night a large and enthusiastic audi
ence greeted e. ]. Fleming and Wal
ter Desmond, Good Government and
Democratic nominee for county tax
collector in Bevione hall, First and In
diana streets. The hall was filed to
overflowing and the speakers made
short addresses outside While waiting
for the car to return to the city.
Mr.. Desmond grilled his opponent,
Mr.. WEIGH, the present county tax
collector. for his extravagances and
political affiliations.
with all the corruption in San
Francisco .countv and despite the rec
ords of graft in that county" said MIR.
Desmond, reports show that it costs
more than twice as much to collect
every dollar of taxes in Los Ange-
les county as it does in San Francisco
county-and we have no Abe Ruef to
support, either. Just think of that.
The collection of taxes, dollar for dol
lar, costs Los Angeles county more
than twice as much as it does San
Francisco county.
II attribute this condition of affairs
and l think L have reason for that
belief-to the fact that the present
tax collectors office in Los Angeles
county is not conducted on a business
basis but simply serves as bureau
for the payment of political debts
Mr. Fleming reiterated all his for
mer charges against John d. Freder-
icks and scored the present district
attorney for his sins of omission and
lack of diligence in prosecuting the
"higher-ups."

5000 HEAR BELL
IN SAN FRANCISCO
Former Mayor Taylor Stirrlngly
IndorseS Democratic
State Leader
Especial to The Herald

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2.-Theodore
A. Bell was welcomed last night at
Dreamland rink by 5000 cheering men
and women, who went to hear the
leader of the Democrats deliver a
mastery address. DR.. Edward Robe
son Taylor, chosen mayor of San
Francisco at the time the grafters
were expelled from office and then
elected to restore 1ecency to the gov
ernment of this city, presided at the
meeting, and the grand old man OF
California laid his hand on Bell s
shoulder as he said: do you suppose
| would raise my voice for this man If
there were the faihtest suspicion of a
possibility that he was tainted with an
alliance with the corrupt powers which
Democracy is fighting to the very
death?'1 1t was no half-hearted in
dorsement that Taylor gave to Bell.
He spoke with the pent-up passion of
his contempt of the crawling, Shiny
agents of slander, seeking not openly,
but by innuendo, TO besmirch record
which he said was without flaw for
fourteen years of continuous battle for
the rights of the people.
The pandemonium that followed this
declaration, with it's dramatic setting
joining forces at the climax of a great
popular battle, battles description. 1t
rolled back and forth through the great
pavilion and rushed in waves of
clamor back upon the rostrum.
CROWD CHEERS WILDLY
The pavilion rocked with it. Women
stood and mingled their cheers with
those of men. 1t was what the crowd
had been waiting for, and they sated
themselves of demonStratfVe approVal.
Bell digresSed from his set speech in
order to answer some foolish questions
propounded by the San Francisco Call.
That paper had declared that Bell had
returned to San Francisco Monday to
meet Patrick Calhoun, and it was made
to look more than foolish when the
fact was developed that Calhoun has
not been in San Francisco for months.
Tim Spellacy made short speech
before Bell spoke. Tomorrow the nom
inees tour Contra Costo county.
Mr.. Bell read from a local paper five
questions which he was asked to an
swer. These questions brought up
Bells recent hurried trip from the
south to this city and implied that 1t
was made for the purpose of comforting
with representatives of the United
Railroads of San Francisco. One ques-
ton read:
rs it true, Mr.. Bell, that when Pat
rick Calhoun (president of the United
Railroads) arrived in San Francisco
you Cancelled your Monday speaking
engagement in Southern California and
hastened to. San Francisco from Los
Angeles for a conference?'
Mr.. Bell denied that directly or indi-
rectly he had ever conferred with any
representative OF the company as to
his campaign, and said while reading
the question he had been informed by
Chairman Dewitt of the Democratic
state committee that Mr. Calhoun was
not in the state and had not been in
the state during the campaign.
The purpose of his trip, Bell said, was
to plan the last week of his campaign
In the same way Bell answered the
other questions, denying all insinua-
tions.

Wednesday, they appeared to have a
fairly good idea Of the new princi-
pies.
Although 1t is still very early, the
army team has progressed far enough
to begin the process of elimination of
some of the abundance Of material
which reported these being formed
into minor squads, with view of de-
veloping material for future teams.
The tentative lineup selected this
week was composed of men who
played on the varsity last year or
were among the first subs. Hicks and
Wood received the call for ends, while
Devore filled Pullen's place at tackle,
and Homer played tackle at the other
side of the line. Weir was back in
his oldguard position, and Little
john played the other guard. Ar
mold went to center, with Sibert OPP
posite him on the scrubs. Last years
backs, Dean and Brown, were in their
places and Surles took Chamberlain
place at fullback. Keyes played quar-
ter, owing to Hyatt having sore
ankle.
Walmsely who played good sub
halfback last year, is out for line
position this year. Englehard, Kirk,
Houston, Butts, Coggill and Kern are
also promising material for line places
and FRANKIE, Cook and Grain are fight
ing Cor an end.

ARMY loses FEW
OF ITS BEST men

West Point. N. Y, Sept. 2S.--The
work of selecting an army team is
a comparatively easy one for the
West Point coaches this year, with
ITO candidates, among whom are
nearly all of last years varsity and
scrub players to select from.
BY graduation, the army lost Pull
len, right tackle. and Chamberlain,
fullback but with such men as De-
wore, Homer, Purnell and several
husky chaps that entered in the new
class, the matter of filling the tackle
places is an easy one. The fullback
position, no doubt. will be taken care
of by Surles, Spalding and MacDon-
aid.
OF course, the last years men Of
experience have much to unlearn to
adapt themselves to the new ruling
of this years game, but the past
weeks drill on the rudiments has done
wonders, and in the first scrimmage

INDIAN WOMAN
GREAT Splinter

Valentine, Neb., Sept. 2S--As q
Splinter, Mrs. Running Horse, Sioux
Indian squaw, 20 years of age, belong.
ing at the Pine Ridge agency, a short
distance from here, takes the prize.
The occasion was the last day Of the
Cherry county fair AS feature, a
foot race for Indians, open to the
world, had been arranged. 1t was for
prize of $500 on straightaway
track, a distance of 800 yards. There
were 20 entries, including men and
women one of the entrants being Mrs.
Running Horse, who carried off a 5000
prize at foot race at Rapid City,
S. D., last summer.
Three days prior to the race here 1t
was thought that Mrs. Running Horse
was out of the running, for she had
just given birth to a bouncing boy.
However, she was in at the finish, as
well as at the start.
The Running Horse camp was about
eight miles from town, and the day of
the big race, just as the Indians were
lining up for the start, an Indian wom-
an was seen coming across the prairie,
carrying a baby in blanket on her
back. On she came like the wind, and,
getting into line, passed her baby over
to another Indian woman, tossed off
her blanket and stripping surplus cloth
ing, as straight as an arrow, stood at
the chalk line, waiting for the report
of the pistol which would announce the
start. 1t came, and without any jock
eying, 129 male and female Indians got
away. From out of the crowd like an
arrow from the bow, sped Mrs. Run
ming Horse. She gained rapidly and
was soon ahead of all of her competi.
tors except Lone Wolf, young ath-
lete For 100 yards the man and wom-
an ran side by side, and then gradual
ly she pulled ahead of him, running
like deer. When within fifty yards OF
the goal she seemed to gain strength
and speed, and crossed the line six
yards ahead of Lone Wolf.
Returning to the starting point, Mrs
