Famous Cavalry Leader Was Reiuc-
tant to Accept the Nomination In
1884 Because Of the State Of
His Health.

No man ever accepted a nomina
tion for. vice-president of the United
States more reluctantly than did Gen
erai John A. Logan in 1884. He was
even more greatly distressed that
political exigencies and the imperious
command Of his party compelled his
acceptance of the nomination than
was Theodore Roosevelt in similar
position. Roosevelt at last decided to
accept the nomination before 1t was
made. but Logan pleaded with his
friends at Chicago until he was actual
ly nominated to make some other
choice for the honor.
A day or two before the conyen-
tons notification committee, headed
by ex-senator John B. Henderson, call
ed on General Logan, In his modest
home in Washington. formally to ap-
prise him of his selection as the run
ming mate Of Blaine, was received by
the General in his home. 1 asked him
what he intended saying to the COM
mittee.
Il shall not say anything much" he
said. lust few words. It is a per-
functory performance. / haven't much
heart for it." And then, briefly, he
added that one of the reasons he was
unwilling to enter the presidential
campaign actively as candidate was
the state Of his health. 81 have never
fully recovered from the serious rheu-
matte trouble that affected me four
years ago at the time. ! made my
speech In the Senate in opposition to
the restoring Of General Fitz-John Por-
ter to the retired list of the army" he
explained. Il made part of that
speech while suffering intense pain"
Yes. General" replied, that was
apparent to all of us who heard you,
and II was the common remark at the
time that nothing but your infiexible
will carried you through that long
speech"
When the committee did call upon
General Logan, / was present, at his
special invitation. to witness the brief
ceremony--he had said when extend
ing the invitation: 1T won't be much
of scene" It was clearly apparent
that the General was not in the best
of health. His complexion, always
swarthy when he was In health, had
sort Of pasty hue; the contrast be-
tween 1t and the dropping black mus
tache and coal-black hair was impress
siYely striking.
As he rose to receive the committee
he leaned heavily upon a chair. He
listened to the remarks of the chair
man as though he was either indiffer-
ent or in sort OF dream. And when,

curIosItIes In Fossil eed,

The fossil beds of the west, that have
furnished such wonderful specimens
of gigantic animals of former ages
such as, for instance, the diplodocus
replicas of which have recently been
placed on exhibition in several of the
great European museums, sometimes
yield fossils. which, II not 30 large as
the great saurian mentioned above.
are nevertheless of paramount inter.
est to men of science. During the
summer Of 1909 the remains of sew.
eral fossil turtles were collected By
members of the United States geo
logical survey. and from a study of
these Prof. o. P. Hay has been able to
describe eight new species of fossil
turtles from west of the one-hundredtb
meridian.

WISE WORDS.
A Physician on Food.

physician, OF Portland, Oregon,
has Views about food He says:
Il have always believed that the
duty OF the physician does not cease
with treating the sick, but that VIC
owe It to humanity to teach them how
to protect their health, especially by
hygienic and dietetic laws.
With such a feeling as to my duty
I take great pleasure In saying to the
public that in my own experience and
also from personal observation / have
found no food equal to Grape-Nuts
and that find there is almost no limit
to the great benefits this food will
bring when used in all cases OF sick
ness and convalescence. {
ut is my experience that no physi-
cal condition forbids the use Of Grape
Nuts. To persons In health there is
nothing SO nourishing and acceptable
to the stomach. especially at break
fast, to start the machinery of the hui
man system on the days work.
I'm cases of Indigestion know that
a complete breakfast can be made OF
Grape-Nuts and cream and think 1t Is
not advisable to overload the stomach
at the morning meal. / also know the
great value OF Grape-Nuts when the

The idea took fnstantfy--it-was In

and the next day the notices OF
Ravelli's debut spoke in high praise
of him as very great second tenor,
the word second" being emphasized
in practically every case. The public,
after listening to Ravelli for several
performances, concurred in the view
of the critics: Campanini remained
unsurpassed; there were tears in his
eyes when he embraced General Car
roll for his timely act Of friendship;
and, soon. after there was great JOY In
his heart when Col. Mapleson recog-
nized the inevitable, paid Campanini

manded and was well worth to that

THE LATEST DIETARY SYSTEM
Enables One to Enjoy All Culinary
luxurles Without Taxing
Digestion.

Spreading the menu over the whole
fast. joint and vegetables for dinner
and desserts for supper. is the latest
dietary system.
The discoverer or adapter OF this
new regime found that 1t had a most
beneficial effect on his own health.
and many of his friends have since
become firm disciples Of what they
call the "one-meal. one-course" sys-
tenn.
| Modern meals are too much OF q
tumble" said a we1Eknown specialist
Fish and pork, fruit and outlets, all
taken at one sitting, must be bad
for one.
THE time necessary for digestion
varies with every different kind OF
good. and 1t Is certain that the more
we mix our foods the further we are
straying away from the habits OF
natural man.
TO take hearty meal OF one spe-
cial dish Is the best possible method
OF feeding, but we have SO got into
our four and five course habits, and
have become 80 accustomed to what
| may call the pleasant sequence OF
the menu, that 1t requires very
strong effort to selfdenIal to confine
ourselves to one dish
But under the 'one-meal. one
course idea the pleasant sequence Is
not forfeited. 1t is spread over the
whole day, instead Of being rushed
through in half an hour. One can
enjoy all the culinary luxuries with
out overtaxing the digestion"

Sweeping reforms In the government
of the state of Washington are advo-
Gated by Governor Marion E. Hay In
a letter to the State Grange. He fav-
ors changing the constitution and
nominating by direct vote only United
States senators, congressman, governor
and lieutenant governor and the state
legislative and county tickets, the rest
of the state officials, including judges
of the supreme court, to be appointed
by the governor. Other changes out
lined in Governor Hays letter follow:
81 am in favor of the recall over
our public officials. Rest assured that
/ will be with you to the very limit
in this.
"Should the legislature pass a di-
rect legislation bill, 1 shall certainly
approve it, though / am unable to see
where it will do the good it's many ad-
vocates claim.
81 am in favor of the state controll-
ing the limiting of bond issues of pub
lie service corporations and believe it
unwise to allow them to issue bonds
unfortunately, as they have been do
ing in the past. We are compelled to
pay excessive rates, so that their stock
will bear q reasonable return upon the
face of it. In other words, we are hav-
ing to pay dividends upon too much
water.
81 am in favor of the county unit
for local option, with the possible ex-
ception Of eliminating cities of the
first class from the county unit. Coun-
ties in which there are cities of the
first class would have two units, and as
q further restriction upon this traffic
l expect to recommend to the next leg
islature to pass a bill combining the sale
of liquor to daylight hours only in sue
communities where its sale is permit
ted by law"
Governor Hays proposed legislation
is of an experimental character of
doubtful ~expediency. The idea of
recall over public officials is particu
larry novel and would seem to be i'm
practical. Most officials are electes
for but two years and if their ofieia
acts fail to meet with popular ap
prevail, they are retired from office.
It is probable, however, that mos
Of Governor Hays recommendation
will be adopted by the people of Wash
ington, who are among the most pro
gressive in the country.
