CARRIE NATION
IS THROUGH

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 30.-Carrie Ma
ton has announced that she has
retired from the field Of temper
ance reform. Carrie has stopped
smashing. She says she can't
break up any more "rumporiums"
because her heart won't let her.
Sentiment? Not at all, for Carrie
isn't the kind of woman who
would stop in life's work simply
for a bit of sentiment. With her
it s a matter of cold, hard fact.
carrie, in brief, says she has heart
trouble, so she's obliged to quit the
field. She's afraid that during the
excitement of smashing bee she
might drop dead.
She admits she has smashed her
own heart, and by the Ratchet
route, at that, but she feels amply
repaid for her work-financially as
well as morally. .

IS IT NAPOLEON'S
HEART9

PARIS, Dec. 30.-An evening pa
per has a strange story to the eff
feet that Napoleon Is heart may
be preserved in the crypts of Saint
Denis. At any rate, among the
urns containing the hearts of for
mer rulers Of France there is one
which simply has the inscription Of
big letter n.
The senate, some time ago, when
the question of Louis XVII. was
brought before 1t. appointed COM
mittee to visit the crypts of the
Church of Saint Denis. No urn
containing the heart of Louis
XVII. was found, but among the
urns of various kings of France
there was noticed one which was
larger than the rest, and which
stood out from the others. IT con-
tanned no other inscription than a
capital N, without a crown. The
keeper and the architect in charge
were questioned. but no body knew
what the urn represented or how it
got there.

HAS THIRD SET OF
TEETH

COLUMBUS, O., Dec 30
Judged by the masculine standard,
that a man is as old as e feels,
William Clark, a courthouse at
tache, is very young man. Every
day, as a third set of teeth which
he is growing come nearer being
nutcracking realities, Clark grows
younger. He is now 80. The teeth
promise to become terrors to tough
pieces of beeksteak. Surgeons and
specialists say ne is one man in a
million to be favored by nature in
this way.
Like the teeth that came in his
childhood, Clark's third are slow in
growing and their coming has been
marked by some Of the symptoms
that attend Leething" in childhood
But unlike the growth of teeth in
children, the back ones" are
growing first This has added
another feature over which stu
dents of anatomy have puzzled.

HOW PRATT RING
''DOUBLE-CROSSED'LAB

How nicely organized labor was
double crossed" by the Pratt ad-
ministration was seen yesterday,
when the suit to order the paving
contracts went to trial, and the city
did not undertake to defend the So
ordinance.
1t is now freely admitted that the
SO day ordnance is illegal, because
it was improperly drawn by the
corporation cOunsels office. The
ordinance contains no clause re-
peal in the $275 ordinance, and
consequently the city is defending
only the $2.75 ordinance and not
the one for SO.

On the 100000 or $4,000, 900
of work contracted since this wage
scale ordinance went into effect,
this two-bit rake-off for the con-
tractor will mean the saving Of
tens of thousands OF dollars for

1t may be said at this time that
this ordnance was drawn before the
advent into office of F.. B. Morrill,,

Morrill, is not responsible and is
