Why He Was Sorry.

To impress on young children just
what should and what should not be
done and why. is among the most try
ing problems of parents, as evidenced
by the recent experience OF West
Philadelphia mother. Last Sunday
she asked her small son, aged eight. to
carry a chair for her from the dining
room to the parlor. He started on
willingly, but in the hall he tripped
and fell. Amid the crash could be
heard the boy giving vent to utter
ances that would have done credit to
a pirate of ancient days. The mother
was taken by surprise and was greatly
shocked. She gave the boy long
and serious talk on the subject Of pro-
family. This apparently did not make
the right impression, for when she
concluded the boy adder to her dis
comf1ture by exclaiming, II am sorry
swore, mamma, but l forgot 1t was

Ono Record Made by Women.

Through the activity of women, in
the anti-tuberculosis campaign, sana-
toria and hospitals for the treatment
of tuberculosis have been erected;
travelling libraries have been circu-
lated. posters, circulars and other
kinds of literature have been distrib-
uted to the number of millions OF
pieces, thousands of lectures have
been given, large sums OF money have
been secured, hundreds Of needy cases
have been helped: tuberculosis work
has been started in many communi-
ties where no movement had existed;
and millions Of women have learned
the dangers and methods Of preven-
tion of tuberculosis. The work Of the
women extends from the drawing-room
Of the rich to the homes OF the poor.
and embraces all classes, including the
factory girl and millionaire. During
the coming year a special campaign Of
lectures to women will be carried on
In all parts of the United States.

EXPERTS ARE HEARD.
Government Will CaH Others il
BIeached Flour Case.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 6.-Further
evidence in the bleached flour case to
support the contention that the bleach
ing process Injuries flour was submit
ted by the government in the federal
court here today.
The government will call number
of expert witnesses who have not yet
testified. The millers, also. have sub
poenaed several experts.
Andrew S. Mitchell of st. Paul, a
chemist in the employ of the govern
ment, corroborated the testimony Of
previous witnesses to the effect that
the process of bleaching flour lessons
the food value of the -four. He said
bleaching affected the odor of flour
and that he could detect the differ
ence between the bleached and un-
bleached products by smelling them.
On cross examination he was asked to
smell a sample of flour and tell
whether it was bleached or un-
bleached. He refused to submit to the
test unless two samples, one of
bleached and the other of unbleached
-four, were given him at the same
time. This was not done and the test
was not made.
The witnesses admitted that there
were nitrates in the air and that
bread made from unbleached flour in
a kitchen where gas or coal were
burned might absorb nitrates.
Dr. Hamilton J. Jones of New Or
leans and DR.. Harry Kempster of Mil
waukee are among the witnesses to be
called by the government,

STUBS TO TAKE HAND.
VIII Issue Statement About Members
of Legislature.

1t Is reported around the state
house this week that Governor Stubs
will soon issue a statement to the
public dealing particularly with Re
publican nominees to the next legis
lature. 1t is understood that he will
urge in this statement that the voters
of the various counties insist upon
their candidates taking a stand upon
the progressive questions now up for
final disposition. That the people find
out where their candidates stand on
reform issues. Whether they are for
or against the public utilities bill. For
the machine or the square deal.
In his recent speeches in the west
the governor urged the voters to Zine
your legislative candidates up on the
state issues and find out where they
stand; question them, directly and
place them on public record as for or
against reform
1t is we'll known that the governor
regards the personnel of the next leg
islature of great importance to the
next administration. The standpatters
enough to block several of the more
important of the administration bills
and the governor served notice over
a year ago of his intention to make a
strong fight for reform candidates for
the legislature. So his statement to be
issued this week is not unexpected. 1t
is believed that in 1t he will express
himself plainly upon the necessity of
making the candidates speak out be-
fore the primary.

question if the automobile is not a curse
to the country.
The chancellor was speaking to the
graduating class of the university to-
CAV on self denial and he chose the au-
tonobile as a broad and apparent IL
iustration'' of a, luxury that too often
is not sacrificed.
Young mechanics and clerks and bus
mess men, he said, "whc need all their
capital are mortgaging their homes by
the thousands and losing their positions
because of their infatuation with this
fern of pleasure.
1T is said that about 500 million dol
lars are invested in the automobile
trade and this enormous capital is nom
productive. That is, it adds compare
lively nothing to the wealth of the peo-
ple but on the contrary absorbs it. 1t

most of them talked with him con-
corning the railroad situation. Sena-
tor Depew, of New York. said:
Il do not sympathze with the rail-
roads in this instance. They should
have submitted the proposed increase
in rates to the interstate commerce
commission and sought a hearing be-
fore that body. Then they could have
presented their case to the public and
the chances are that the rates would
have been approved in part anyway
for there are good reasons why the
railroads should increase the rates.
But the companies went about this in
the wrong way and at the wrong time.

LITTLE STANDS PAT.
Says He Will Continue to Be Johnson's
Manager.

San Francisco, June 6.-The discharge
of George Little and the hiring of Billy

up very straight and wait for develop

missed. Sometimes" said Little, last
night, "a blind hog roots around ana
finds an acorn. Well I'm not going to
let loose of this"
Little says he has an ironclad con-
tract with the negro chan pion that runs
until May, 1911, by which he is to re-
ceive % per cent of all profits that ac-
crue from the pugiist's ring activities.
Furthermore, he asserts that it was he
who furnished the fight deposit money

will stop the big battle IL he is not

drawn by shrewd theatrical agent in
Chicago and is entirely binding on both
parties.
Anent the contract johnson says:
You can't tie up free man. That
binding a fighter. is not legal and
told Little so when I signed it, 1 will
not have Little around and he won't
bother me, that's all there is to it,
But Johnsons followers are worried
it appears, and they voice the fear that
the feud between the two has cnly be-
gun and that serious complications
may result. No one, promoters or fans,
seems to attach any significance to Lit
ties declaration that he will try to halt
tie actual contest.
Johnson's selection of Nolan 70 look
after his interests is commended by the
regro's followers who regard the man
who developed Battling Nelson as one
of the ablest managers in the fight
game.
