Claim Capitol Site.

The heirs of the late Judge Harry
Innis, who donated the site of the old
capitol building at Frankfort, have put
in claim for the recovery of the old
site They claim that the site was deed
ed to the State by Judge Innis on the
condition that it be used as State
Cap toll, but if it ever ceased being used
for that purpose it was to revert to his
heirs Now that the new Capitol is be-
ing used, the heirs claim the old property,
and will make legal fight for it. 1t is
worth something like a quarter of a
million dollars

J. H. GENTRY,
New Law

A few days ago the new mechanic
lien law passed by the recent Legisla
ture went into effect and makes rad
ical change in dealings between owners
and contractors and material dealers.
In the past the material dealers have
been so protected by the law that il
made little difference whether the
contractor was financially responsible
or not and credit was given for the
asking. Under the new law, however,
the material dealer will have to be as
careful in granting credit as dealers in
any other line of business.

oNE-cENr LETTER POSTAGE.

President Taft and Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchcock came to an agreement
yesterday on tho recommendations the
president will make 10 Congress regard
ing change in the second class postage
rates as affecting magazines and other
periodicals.
Mr.. Taft will recommend that the
magazines be required to pay the
present rate OF one cent pound on all
reading matter and a much higher
rate, to be determined later, on the ad-
vertising pages. Each magazine will
be required to send q copy OF its cur
rent issue to the Postofice Department
each week or month, as the case may
be. There the publication will be dis
sectcd. Tho reading matter and the
advertising sections will be separately
weighed and the amount of postage
computed by tho numbers OF magazines
sent out.
Newspapers will not be affected. The
average haul OF the newspaper is but
500 miles, while the average haul OF
the magazine is 1.100 miles.
The hauling OF magazines in the
mail has proved costly to the govern
ment, and both the president and the
postmaster general believed it has en-
tered largely into the deficit shown
each year in the Postollicc Depart
ment.
President Taft is looking forward to
one-cent rate for letter postage and
hopes to recommend it before Inc leaves
the White House.
The establishment Of the proposed
new rates rs to magazines, the prcsl-
dent believes, will do much 10 bring
about the PENNY postage plan. At the
same time he thinks the magazines
will be compelled to pay only their
just share in the postal expenses.
The president is dctermind to push
his plan for placing second and third
class postmasters under the civil SER
vice. He will make the recommends
ton to Congress in his forthcoming
message and hopes for favorable action.
In addition to taking these classes OF
postmasters entirely out OF politics,
the president believes the move will
prove economical. He is certain it
will enhauce the efficiency Of the SER
vica

MORE AVIATION FEATs.

A baby" Wright roadster, with
Ralph Johnstone at tho wheel, glided
gracefully to earth in the twilight at the
close OF the international aviation meet
at Belmont Park yesterday evening with
the barograph registering a new worlds
record for altitude. The little machine,
OF only 35-horsepower, had been up
9,7l4 feet, exceeding by 52S feet the
height attained in FraHce on October l
by Henry Wynmalen, Of Holland.
But Johnstone's sky-climbing feat
was not the only notable incident 0! the
closing day OF the meet. Claude Gra-
bame-White, the athletic Britisher,
who carries away the Gordon Bennett
trophy, which takes the next inter
national tournament TO England,
sharpened the sporting appetite with a
challenge to John ". Moisant, Of
Chicago, for another race from the
park around the Statue of Liberty III
New York harbor and return. Moisan'
who won $4,000 for bis fast flight
around the statue Sunday ignored Tho
challenge.
Then Grahame White, denied anothe
chance for visit to Miss Liberty, sen
thrill through the spectators, wher
at the close ola speed race with J. A
D. McCurdy, OF the Curtiss team, hi
propeller snapped, his monoplane dul
into the greensward in front Of the grand
stand, turned turtle, and buried tn
aviator underneath. He was uninlured
and won the race.
Moisant's winning OF the $4,000 dis
tance prizo offered by the Aero Club Q
America, was the other big event of th'
day. He travelled approximately S71-:
miles in two hours. In landing, afte
winning the event, he smashed his pro
peller and broke running wheel, bu
escaped unscathed.
L was in a pretty purple haze VI
there" said Johnstone, after he hat
finished his world-record flight, ant
say, it was cold. I had 4 couple o
sweaters on, beside my rubber suit an,
face mask, but then at times felt as
freezing. Several times I lost com
plete sight of the earth. but when
Shot clear Of the haze I could see ava.
down below building and residence
which looked like toy blocks"

ITALY BUYS FAMOUS STATUE
Government Pays $4,000 for image
Which Mrs. "Jack" Gardner Of
Boston Wanted.

Rome.-"The Girl Of Anzio," the
latest name given to a superb statue.
supposed to be the work Of Lysippus
or Praxiteles, has been brought to
Rome and placed temporarily in the
"Terme" museum. A great storm in
1878 washed it out of the ruins Of
Nero's palace at Anzio, on property
belonging to Prince Aldobrandini.
Bids for it went up, gradually rising
to $4,000.
Mrs. "Jack" Gardner of Boston
looked it over and offered more than
100000. The agreement for the pur-
chase of the statue by Mrs. Gard.
e was sealed and signed and a tele-
gram was sent to her at Boston ask
Ing her to remit the money necessary
for its transport. But Mrs. Gardner
a away, the telegram did not reach
her and signor Bistolf, a sculptor
himself and inspector of works Of art
In Italy, vetoed this sale.
Carrado Ricci Joined him, and in
the nick Of time the government de.
sermined it should not leave the coun.
try, and sought, to buy it.
That was three or four years ago
Since then haggling has been going
On. The government offered $4,000
The A~ldobrandinis demanded more.
Recently the government offered
10000 and that sum was accepted.

GETS IS CENTS, LOSES $1oo
Thief Invading California Railroad
Station Is Real victIm-causes
Much Joking.

Santa Rosa, GAIA thief who broke
into the office of the Northwestern
Pacific railroad at Schellville the other
night stole IS cents from the cash
lrawer in the ticket Office. During his
brief stay in the Office he dropped
from his pockets an envelope contain
ing two greenbacks, one for 500 and
The other for a single dollar. The visit
IF the thief, intended to net him some
Easy money, resulted in a net loss to
him of $1O0.65.
The officers are DESTROYS Of catching
the marauder who broke into the de-
pot, not for the purpose of returning
10 him the sum of money which he
dropped during his thieving expedi-
ton, but they would like to secure
him and prosecute him for his GRIM
NAL act. The officers have no fear
Of the man calling for the lost money.
The idea of the rich tramp burglar
robbing the poor railroad corporation
md incidentally making a donation of
t100.65. is causing joking here at the
expense Of the unknown man who lost
his money, and has no hopes of its re-
:overy.

FISH TRY TO LEAP OVER DAM
Humping az They Hit Boards Alarms
Observation-Disclosures Plan
Catch Them.

Monticello, N. Y.-so many sucker
fish are trying to leap over the dam
separating Smith Meadow brook from
Smiths pond that persons living near
the dam are kept awak at night by.
the humping of fish as they strike
against the planking of the dam in
their repeated and fruitless leaps to
get to the coveted spawning waters.
All night long the humping con-
tinues. At first it was not known
what caused 1t and many superstitious
persons became frightened. Two
nervy boys, one of them De Witt Olp-
stead, solved the mystery. Filled with
curiosity, they sneaked out of their
homes at four o'clock in the morning
and made their way toward the brook.
The nearer they came to 1t the louder
the humping became. Soon violent
splashing sounds were heard, too.
Creeping through the bushes, the boys
reached the margin Of the stream and
found themselves in a genuine fish
storm center. .
1t was not until dawn arrived, how
over, that they realized fully what the
noise meant. Then they saw thou
sands of suckers trying to get over
the dam. The fish would leap from
the water, strike the face of the plank
dam a resounding thump and fall back
into the brook. Many dead fish float
ed in the water. They literally had
battered themselves to death in trying
to force their way over a dam which
was too high and too steep for them
to scale.
When the boys returned and told
what they had discovered there was a
rush to the brook. Hundreds of the
fish were captured in nets and taken
home to be eaten. Pity for the others
constrained some one to open q
waste gate, and, although the force Of
the water passing through it from the
pond to the brook was strong, the
suckers fought their way against the
current, and by nightfall all of them
had worked their way into the pond.
Villagers now are making nets to
place across the brook and capture
the fish after they have spawned and
move down stream again.
