SOUR GRAND OLD MAN. "

J. Proctor Knott quietly celebrat
= ed bis Both birthday at his, home in
Aebanon Monday. He is the Grand
Old Man" of Kentucky and we trust
eAlna having lived for. four score
years. that he may be spared for
many days yet to come and that
ehey may all be days Of peace and
cuntentment. J. Proctor Knott was
mot only the greatest man that this
district ever sent to Congress, but
the entire Slate never had an ADLER.
a more brilliant or a more honest
man IN the Halls of Congress. His
mssne is known from one end of this
country to the other. AS the Chair
nNr Of the Judiciary Committee of
Che House he ranked with Jerry
Bssek as. the 6rst constitutional law
yeS of the country. AS a DICTATOR
IN ahe floor he was a match for
yames G.. Blaine. AS a satirist he
wxS IN a class all by himself and his
Daluth speech has never been equal.
I'd N the English language. AS a
mzn of letters, as an artist and a
snniptor he has rare talents and
great knowledge Knowing him
Sshmately for more than twenty
years of his public life She never
ceased to surprise US with the inf
mlte variety of his know edge and
I'm absolute correctness and |
chs EOughness. Taking him in the
AresGth and scope of his mind and
in the versatility of his talents we
me fully persuaded that their does
not live IN the South a greater man
ahzn J. Proctor Knott. He is as
great as were Beck, Carlisle, Hill, of
Georgia, or Lamar of Mississippi who
were his colleagues in Congress. On
tlsln&Oth birthday we take off our

SERVANT PROBLEM
Is Giving the House-K Keepers
of the City Serious
'> Trouble.

/ The servant problem IN Hopkins
vile has become one OF, the creates
drawbacks to house keeping anc
many house-keepers have discharg
ed their cooks and are doing their
own work.
The general inc tferenee Of the av-
erage colored cook and the disnones
tyof many of them are the reasons
given.
In one neighborhood on fashion
able residence street, several small
families have quit housekeeping
and are taking their meals ct b Jard-
ing houses.
A great many ladies' are using gas
Stoves and doing their own cooking
and others are. getting along with
the help Of a small girl or houseboy.
Fifteen families in space of two
blocks have no cooks. Many of the
cooks refuse to live in the houses
provided for them on the GpTemises,
but support families in other por
tons of the city, carrying food home
with them after each meal.
One lady discussing the matter
said:
II can tell the cooks who pass my
house by the buckets, baskets or
bundles they carry"
Another lady discharged her cook |
because she insisted upon sending |
the houseboy into the front yard for
the morning paper, which she would |
keep in the kitchen until she had
read it,.
There has also been decided up
ward tendency in prices'paid,, even |
for poor and unsatisfactory domes-
tics.
The ladies Of the city are giving
most serious considerations to the
problem ana many take the ground
hat the time has come for the inn
,ortation of white servants on an
basis.
The fact isErowiDg more Svidentl
hat a very large proportion of the
egrOes will rO'longer work aShouse-
old servants. There are about 1900 |
olored peoplein the city and alarge
of them have no regular
employment. L
That this idleness begets crime is
hown by the fact that the colOred
ace pays morsmOney into the city
treasury for fines than for taxes.

ELEVEN MUMMIES FOUND.
Remains Of Cherry Victims Remark.
ably Preserved.


Cherry, Ill. - Eleven more bodies
of miners were rescued from the st.
Paul coal mine. To the amazement
of veteran mine inspectors, the bodies
entombed since last Nov. Is, when
brought to the surface, were found
to be almost perfectly mummifed.
The mummified condition was
brought about by the bodies having
for three months been in a part of
the mine which was dry and warm
and the bodies going through a slow
process of drying up.
This is n of the most remark
able incidents of a disaster which has
been full of wonders" declared an
old mine Inspector. The mummies
are in such good preservation that
they might have been taken out of
the ancient tombs of Egypt"
Fighting through fire and the deadly
black damp which ever since the dis.
aster stood between them and the 165
or more bodies still entofffbed in the
mine, the rescuers found the eleven
bodies In what Is known as the second
level. They were about 175 feet from
the main air shaft. The men, instead
of re~treating to remoter parts OF the
mine, evidently had made a desperate
effort to escape when the fire broke
out, and they were among the first to

CATHOLIC COLLEGE BURNS
Main Building of Columbus College
is Totally Destroyed

Chamberlain, s. d., Feb. 22-The
main building of Columbus college To-
Gated in this city, was totally destroy
ed by fire at al early hour Sunday
morning, entaling a loss of $4,000 on
the building and more than SIS, 900 on
the contents and furnishings. There
was not a dollar of insurance. The
cause of the fire is not known, but it
started apparently in the southwest
corner. When discovered at 2 o'clock
by a wakeful student, such Roadway
had already been made that there was
difficulty on the part of some of the
inmates to escape. Father Goulette,
musical instructor, was rescued from
an upper window, where he had been
hanging for a few minutes.
None succeeded in saving their per-
sonal effects. The library. including
81 500 worth of books donated by
Bishop O'Gorman, was destroyed with
the other contents.
The college lies outside the reach
of the local fire department, and it
was found that the college water sys-
TEN hydrants were frozen so that wa
ter could not be turned on the flames
All those present could do was to
watch the flames destroy the magnff-
icent building.

O'Gorman for a Catholic society for

last fall, and the attendance has been
growing since at a very satisfactory
rate. Father Sarprenant. the pest.
dent has closed the college for one
week in order to properly furnish 9th

for the restoration OF the burned

How often do you eat this food7 4,

A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection Of
the foods you eat.
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended; but If the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given to
good oatmeal.
AS a matter of fact Great Britain
and Europe come to us for tremendous
quantities of Quaker Oats because it
represents to them perfect food, being
the richest in flavor and best in clean
illness and purity, of all oatmeals.
Americans should eat more Quaker
Oats; the results would soon show
themselves in improved conditions Of
health and strength. 55
