one of the great progressive means
advocated by .ex-President Roosevelt
in his recent St. Paul speech, as well
as by President Taft in his recent
open letter to Chairman Mckinley,
regarding the important things before

a while. Early this month he left
North Yakima and returned to Spo-
kane. From Spokane to Bismarck he
worked his way by breaking coal for
the firemen en- route, and arrived in
the city night before last after seeing
the westaand having good time, and
all ready to enter school.
When he left Bismarck he had only
a dollar and a few cents in his pos
session, and during his absence his
father did not send him over five
dollars. He made the entire trip over
three thousand miles at his own ex-
pense. and the record is one of which
few thirteen-year-old lads can boast.

A BOSTON LANDMARK.

The Grasshopper Weather Vane Perch
 cd Atop FaneuiI Hall.
 Perched on the cupola of Faneuil hall is a grasshopper weather vane which is not only one of the oldest vanes in the country, but is famous as the product of one of Americas earliest woodcarvers and artisans, Shem Drowne of Boston.
 Drowne's shop was on Ann street in the north end
 Of the many vanes he made only three are now known to be in ex- istence-the one on the Shepard Me- morial church in Cambridge. which formerly was on the steeple of the New Brick church on Hanover street in this city and known as the revenge vane; the one in the collection of the Massachusetts Historical society, rel ic of the old Boston province house, and the one on Faneuil hall.
 This grasshopper of copper. hammer cd out by hand. has large glassy eyes. which in the sunlight shine like fire. It was made in 1742 at the order of Peter Faneuil when the hall, his gift to the town. was nearing completion.
 It has not. however, lived life of unbroken peace. for several times it has been near destruction. In 1755, when Boston was shaken by an earth quake. the vane fell to the ground, but after being supplied with new leg by the son of the man who made it it was replaced. e
 
 Five years later Faneuil hall was seriously damaged by fire, but the vane remained intact, and when the hall was rebuilt the grasshopper was once more given the place of honor.
 Another disaster befen it when in 1889 flag was being raised to cele- brate the anniversary of the evacua- ton of the city by the British. The hop per hoped to the street below. But in few days it hopped right back again, and there it has remained ever since. with the exception of an occa- sional removal for repairs. = Boston Globe

 In another moment he was before it, tingling with excitement, the spirit of the collector rampant
 "An Utamaro, sure as you're alive" he exclaimed, looking about for some one with whom to share his joy. Any body would do, so be tapped a stranger on the shoulder and announced with the air of reporting the discovery of a diamond mine, "It's an Utanaro, the real thingw

 1t Is by Utamaro, the master of Japanese artists" he answered as he fled in search of his wife. She would understand. "To think of wasting it on those donkeys who won't know 1t from signboardv' he grumbled.
 He found her shaking hands with the bride, so he rushed up and rung the girls hand enthusiastically. T have just been admiring that peachy Utamaro" he exclaimed excited1y.
 "A peachy Utamaro! Whats thatT asked the bride, mystified.
 That rare old Japanese print up there. It's the gem of your whole lay out"
 "Ohw exclaimed the bride faintly, looking a little queer, so he thought, as she turned to greet another guest.
 As his wife dragged him away he demanded to know what the dickens was the matter with that Utamaro.
 "It was our present to them," she moaned 'I didn't dare tell you. You would have wanted it for your collec- tion."-Los Angeles Times.

While expressing himself as in favor of a public utilities bill, Hon. Georgeg M. Gum of Milford is somewhat pessimistic as to the ultimate result in the event of the creation of a only a question of time before the nominating power is controlled by the parties most interested to the extent, at least, of providing that the men named shall at least not be unfriendly to them" Referring to other com missions in this State, MT. Gum thinks that "an examination of their mental attitude will show that they are without exception entirely friend ly to the interests which they are ex- pected to supervise"
 There is, then, the greater need of safeguarding tthe construction of a public utilities commission bill. The Business Mems bill provides that no officer, employee, attorney or agent of any public service company shall be a member or employee of said commission. MT. Gum would also exclude "any person who has at any time U06n a Hl0mO6r OI any SCdLe cell tral committee of either political par ty within a period of five years from the date of his appointment" for the reason that "the public service cor porations of the state have for many years kept their hand on the throat of the public through the agency of the state central committees of poli- tical parties.'' In his opinion DOT ti6n at least of the commission should be elected by the people.
 Another safeguard, though not sug- gested by MT. Gum, would be the ex- clusion of stockholders in public ser vice corporations from the proposed commission. If such men are to be eligible, the project might as well be dropped now, for what MT Gum says of other commissions would soon become true as to this one.

When Solid Iron EIoats

Experiments have shown that if a ball of solid iron be lowered into a mass of liquid iron by means of a metal fork the ball at first sinks to the bottom with the fork, but that in a few seconds it will leave the prongs and rise to the surface, where it con- tinues to float until it melts. The ris- ing is explained by the expansion of the ball. due to heating. whereby it becomes, bulk for bulk. less dense than the molten metals-St. Louis Republic.

"Did Kipling ever steal one of my corncob pipes?" said the late Mark Twain once.

vored to so hamper the commission with limitations and by a lack of funds as to make it useless. But this scheme didn't work.
 Now, in the Outlook" Ex-President Roosevelt speaks in favor of "a first class tariff commission" which will tend to intensity the antagenism of the regulars toward him.. They fear that an honest examination of the tariff question by experts, will re- suit in real downward revision which would reduce the trusts pro- fits and at the same time lessen very materially the cost of living.

The letter of Mayor Thayer to Edi- tor Hopkins of the Hartford Courant is decidedly humerous but. as is us- sual with hts deliverances, there are sub-strata of sane, sound sense. For ] instance:
 The Legislature in it's wisdom has required that all dogs wear a tag and number; that automobiles wear The writer a short time ago suggest I, ed that lobbyists wear the tag and number of their owners; and now that ' the senatorial question is uppermost in our thoughts why not tag our Uni ted States senators?

 If we might make suggestion, it would be that the Senatorial tag bear ing the figures of election cost, carry also the name of the special interest which furnished the cash. Then, the 'plain people whom Lincoln loved" would become possessed of foreknowl- edge as to how the tagged Senator would vote on questions promoting that special interest and initiating against the peoples welfare.
