His Unfortunate Modesty.

Seymour thought McBusher got
Job with brass band?
Ashley-He did: but the job lasted
)nly one day.
Seymour-What was the trouble?
Ashley--McBlusher was so modest
that he had to have an assistant and
the bandmaster refused to pay for the
services Of the two.
Seymour-You speak in riddles; I
don't see what McBlusher's modesty
had to do with his hiring an assistant.
Ashlev-You don't? It had every.
thing to do with it; McBlusher was
too modest to blow his own horn.

my state or in the other coast states.
This criticism seems to be confined to
the middle west. the stamping ground
of the Pop orators.
II am not playing any favorites
among the candidates for congress. All
We want is administration men on the
ticket. That is natural is it not? So
far as Cannon Is concerned, he and 1
are not particularly friendly 1 have
sometimes found him petulant and irri-
table, and even inclined to be arbitra-
ry. But that does not excuse the rabid
revolt against the majority and the
desertion to the Democrats. Presiding
over the house of representatives is
big job and speaker lacking in firm
ness and strength of character would
not be lacking in helplessness.'
Mckinlay's Personality.
Mr.. McKinlay is one of the most de-
lightful of men personally. He is not
2 radical nor is he a conservative. He
made his own way in the coast coun-
try and is man of the people. He
likes California better than Washing
ton, and is as fearless in speaking his
own mind as Roosevelt. He is an out
slider in Kansas. preaching party regu-
larity, but he is big and broad enough
to win lasting friendships and admiration
among the men with whom he came in
contact personally for any length of
time. His personality helps his cause
as much as does his e1oquence on the
platform. One is forced to believe in
his sincerity and that is half the bat
tie for a public speaker.

THE UNWRITTEN LAW.
May Be Fort Scott SIayer's Plea Who
Killed Ralph Larimer.

Fort Scott, Kan. March 25.-Willie c.
Jones, who shot and killed Ralph Lari-
mer while Larimer was walking with
his wisc Monday night. will be ar
raigned in court today. on charge of
murder.
Conviction will depend solely upon the
confession made after his arrest There
" ere no eye witnesses. Under the Kan
sas laws neither Jones nor his wife
can be made to testify. Jones has en-
pIoyed counsel. and the defense will
either be the "unwritten law" or in
sanity. Jones is not a man of average
intelligence.
At the INQUEST the jury held Jones re-
sponsible for the killing. The develop
ments are that Jones and his wife
qua rreled on the afternoon of the mur-
der and that when she ran away from
her home he suspected that she was
to meet some man. 1t is generally un-
Gerstood now that Larimcr mistook her
for someone else. 1t is definitely known
that he and Mrs. Jones had no prevf-
Gus acquaintance.

tanned Probably.
Diving Tackle Is Apparently
Doomed to Go.

New York, March 25.-How to
make football safe without rendering
1t too complex or depriving it of it's
virility was the problem attacked %
day by the intercollegiate football
rules committee.
Secretary E. K. Hall, of Boston.
declared today that he thought by
tomorrow night most of the actual
work of rule changing, with a view
to saving the game from the ban of
college authorities and at the same
time retaining its best features, could
be accomplished today Possibly a
mail vote on some minor points will
have to be taken after little further
experimenting this spring.
Coach Stagg of Chicago was given,
perhaps, the most attentive hearing
making practical experiments with
couple of carefully selected elevens in
the south with a view to learning
how some of the more logical sug-
gestions for rule changes made at the
early winter meeting would work
out on the field.
Many of the experts believe that
Stages experiments and the study of
other authorities on the game will
result in the retention of both the
forward pass and the onside kick.
surrounded by regulations providing
for less close physical contact. The
two halves. it was also thought, would
likely be divided into periods, giving
better chance for the examination
of men who were apparently weaken
ing and tending to prevent dangerous
collapses.
One of the longest discussions was
expected over the neutral zone, to
which considerable opposition has de-
veloped due to the momentum it al
lows the opposing forces to gather for
the clash of the contest. There SEEM
ed to be little doubt that the diving
tackle would be abolished.
Members Refuse to Give Information.
There were no absentees among the
committee members and the discussion
carried on during the morning session
which was an executive one, was ami
mated and general.
Following the luncheon adjournment
Secretary Hal said that no statement
as to the progress the committee was
making could be given out at this time.
From members of the committee,
however, it was learned that while no
definite decisions as to the rule changes
had been reached the sentiment was
found to be favorable for the innova-
ton of dividing the halves of the game
into two periods.
The suggested change eliminating
the provision that a player once taken
from the game could not return to it
also was favored by many OF the con-,
ferees, but with the restriction that
the return of the player should not be
allowed during the period in which he
was removed
