CHEAPER COCKTAILS.
Americans in Berlin Begin Crusade for
Reduction

BERLIN, Jan. 13.-Some distinguished
member of the American community il
Berlin have launched a crusade to reduce
the price of cocktails in Europe They
say the time has come to point out to
propretors that - cents is an extortion-
ate price for the Yankee national drink.
That has been the sum demanded for Sc
ductive Manhattans and Martins ever
since they began their all conquering
march through Europe. and other Amer
lean bar specialtieS have cost in proper
ton. Their demand at present is for a
lucent cocktail, but they are prepared as
a compromise to allow American bars to
initiate certain uptown hotels III New
York and collect 20 cents for highballs,
golden fixes, and gin rcbeys. The issue
threatens to become the liviest one of
the season i'll the Kaiser's capital and
already has outstripped the prospect of
a tariff war with Germany as Il matter
of genuine public interest. The prOprie-
tor of the principal American hotel rem
devious in Berlin says he is afraid to
bring cocktails within the reach Of the
masses because he is convinced sooner or
later he will be unable to cope with the
demand.

OLD GUIDES WERE GRUEsoME.
GaIlows Given as a Turning Point for
Travellers in the Old Days.

The old time guide books in England
were by no means cheerful reading. A
journey from London to East Grim
stead. a distance of FIVE or six and TWEEN
ty miles. would have taken the horse
, man past three gibblets, and it was just
as likely as not that from one or the
other of them a body would be swing
ing in the wind.
Up till the beginning of the Nineteenth
century the gallows was almost as fire.
jquent a landmark as finger posts or
public houses have become now, says
the London News. The traveller APP
preaching York is directed by the guide
books to turn round by the gallows
and three wind mills" and the road
out Of Durham is between the gal
lows and Cokehill." Going out of Wells
YOU ''cross the brook and pass by the
gallows.'
Any number of such directions can be
cleaned from the old books for the
guidance of travellers a hundred years
ago, and as these interesting objects
were put up and the dead bodies of
malefactors left upon them for the spe-
cial editcation of f0otpads and high
waymen, there was suggestive
ness about them that must have given
a special piquancy to cycle touring if
it had been in vogue at that time.

village. town and hamlet, from one
end of Mexico to the other, prepar-
ing to littngly celebrate the one hun
dredth anniversary of Mexican indie
pendence next September. The Cen
tennial programs in all OF the cities
do not vary 10 my great extent. but
in the smaller towns many unique
features peculiar to the hamlet will
be included.
The biggest celebration of all, as
matter OF course, will take place in
the capital, and the government is en-
pending large sums OF money to per-
feet arrangements.
Great interest is being exhibited in
Mexico City. especially among the
Americans, as to the naming of the
United States representative who will
be here during September. There are
many Americans in this capital who
really expect to hear Of the appoint
ment of Theodore Roosevelt. If
Roosevelt is named, and accepts,
there is no question Of a doubt but
that a feeling Of intense enthusiasm
will be aroused among the Americans.
One or two American newspapers in
this country have suggested that the
ex-President OF the United States
may be the man. So far that is all
that is known of the matter. but the
mere mention of Roosevelt as pos
sible delegate has aroused consid-
cradle amount of interest and dis
cussion.

Primaries and Conventions
Next Few Days Are to
Tell the Tale.
GAINES NOT OPPOSED
General Resume Of the Situa.
ton in West Virginia
is Made.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. May 90
Within a week two West Virginia
members OF the National House OF
Representatives should know their
fate as to denomination and one
other should begin to get a pretty
good idea of what his outlook, while
one knows now that he will be re-
nominated without opposition.
The latter is Representative Gaines
OF the Third district. With the
campaign nearly over in some Of the
districts no opposition to the renoml-
nation of Mr.. Gaines has developed
and apparently he will be the choice
of his convention by reclamation.
and will avoid all the worry, work
and expense of primary campaign.
OF the others, Harry c. Woodyarl,
of the Fourth district, will know by
Tuesday night whether he or NJ. *.
Duty, of Richie county, shall be the
the nominee. Primaries will be
held in every county in the Fourth
district Tuesday, and by night it will
be an easy matter TO get sufficient re-
turns to indicate the result in the
district unless the figures should be
very close, and in that event the re-
suit should be known by Wednesday
morning at the latest. Mr. Wood
Yards friends here are APPARENTLY
confident of his denomination. Five
Ito one is the vote by which they are
predicting he will defeat DUTY in
Wood county at the primary. Even
in Richie county. They claim they
will defeat Duty and they further
assert Duty will not carry a county
in the district. Whether they are
right or wrong remains to be seen.
These claims are given merely as
those OF Woodyard's friends here.
Mcdowell Convention.
While the nominating convention
of the Fifth district will not be held
until June 90, at WEIGH, Mcdowell
county, the result probably will be
known before another week, through
the selection OF delegates to the con
vention from the various counties.
Mcdowell county is to select its dele
gates to the congressional convention
tomorrow. and If a Hughes delega-
ton is selected. as is predicted here,
his nomination will be practically as
as he is already said to have
the delegations from Cabell and
Wayne practically solid. With this
start few more delegates would bel
required to insure his denomination.
Representative sturgiss, of the
Second district, will not know the re-
suit of his campaign for renomina-
ton so soon, although the first of his
counties will vote on Saturday Mr.
sturgiss has been in Tucker county
for several days and his friends here
assert he will have the county three
to one. His home county OF Monon-
gala will vote on Saturday of next
week, and is expected to be solid for
him. While not deciding anything,
the returns from these two counties
will be taken to indicate to some de-
gree at least the sentiment of the
people of the district.
Apparently 1T will be come time
before the returns from the First
district, or any definite indications of
