An O-Year-OId Student.

Mrs. A. D. Winship, an eighty-year-
old girl. of Ohio is this month entering
upon her second year as student OF
Ohio University. Last year, at seven
ty-nine, she creditably completed her
freshman year, and attended the sum-
mer school at Tower Hill, Michigan,
this summer. Mrs. Winship expresses
her intention of continuing her studies
and completing special course. Her
major work is in the department of
psychology. and she has many merits
to her credit.
If more of our eighteen year-o
girls displayed the zeal to acquire
knowledge that this young
woman shows. less of them would
complain of the grind of the sweat
shops and the factories.

The Mule as Thief Catcher.

Awakened by the braying of his
mule. Fred Smith. of Youngstown,
Ohio, started out to quiet the animal,
when lie saw a man jump from the
second story window of his house and
flee across the field. The mule took
after the would-be burglar, and
caught him by the coat. compelling the
man to wriggle out of the garment
before he got away The mule re-
tanned the coat, as a souvenir.
This is not the first time that the
mule has made himself immortal in
the affairs of men, for most of us re-
call the famous mule of MatanzaS,
which lent picturesqueness and humor
to the Spanish American war This
Ohio mule. which is emblematical of
Democracy. ought to be brought to
Maine. and probably would be, if our
Democratic friends We're not to abolish
the Sturgis commission. Certainly a
trained mule. in pursuit of the liquor
sellers, would be an improvement on
some of the notification order of sher-
ifs deputies.

Taft Biffs the "Pork Barrel"

In his address delivered at Cincin-

again save the congressional pork
barrel resounding whack. 1t will
be remembered that in affixing his sig
nature to the last rivers and harbors
bill, the President gave fair warning
that it would be the last of the kind so
long as he remained chief executive.
Public opinion is with the President
in the ground he has taken regarding
the method of river and harbor appro-
priations, vet no doubt districts will
continue to urge upon their congress
men the necessity of securing public
buildings appropriations for individual
communities. the same as of old. We all
agree that the reform is necessary
but we are also all agreed that our
own district should be the last one to
give up Not only senators and con-
gressmen but their constituencies have

In 1892, when Mr. Bryan voted for

In 1904. when he ripped Judge Park

International Opium War.

There is probability that all the great
powers will unite in a war against OPP
ium. Ambassador Whitelaw Reid ca
bles the State Department from Lon
don that the British government agrees
to the projected opium conference upon
several conditions as to preliminary
studies by the different powers with a
view to the preparation of restrictions
in the different countries upon the
manufacture and trade in opium.
1t is understood at Washington that
the government of China, which is a
most important factor in the projected
conference, may not be ready to parti-
cipate for at least year. but it is be-
lieved that the American invitation will
be acceped by all the leading powers,
and later a date for a conference will
be fixed. In any event, now that the
United States government has obtained
the acceptance in principle by all the
powers, to hold this conference. the ar
rangement of the details will be left in
the hands of the government of The
Netherlands. That an early date will
be agreed upon for the conference is
hoped for by the leading minds of ali
civilized nations.
