constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls

A SHABBY MAN WITH A WAD.

New York, Oct. 10.-A man who
spoke German with the same facility
as the American vernacular and who
wore a summer suit that was a bit
faded and a hat that was in style
several years ago boarded the North
German Lloyd liner Kaiser Wilhelm
II a few minutes before she sailed
from her Hoboken pier and asked
Purser Schnell for passage. The
purser looked the man over and
asked him if he wanted a second
cabin room. He said that he pre-
ferred the first cabin.
"An inside room" the purser re-
marked, believing that he would
startle the man, will cost you
$122.50."

Give me the imperial suite"
"Well, I'll be dOnnerwetter!" said
the purser, adding. 81 fear the inn

OLD VET PAYS FOR BREAD HE
STOLE NEARLY so YEARS AGO.

Gettysburg, Oct. 1O.-Miss Agnes
McAllister, who lives south of
town, near McAllister's mill, was
last week visited by a veteran here
for the monument dedication who
insisted on paying for some bread
which he had stolen at the time of
the battle. The history of the debt
which was almost a half century old
and the story of its being paid were
related at the meeting of Corporal
Skelly Post, G. A. r., by Theodore
McAllister.
p. j. Swain of Sharon was a
member of Company |, SiXty-irst
Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry
and while on duty in skirmish line
in the vicinity of McAllisters Mill
on the third day of the battle, stole
the bread from an oven at the Nc
Allister home.
Last week when Mr.. Swain re-
turned for the dedication he and
several comrades were telling stories
of the battle when that of the stolen
bread came up. 1t was remember
ed that twelve loaves had been TAX
en- and when the story was told it
developed that two others of the
comrades present had enjoyed some
of the stolen bread. They decided
to revisit the scene of the mill and
were delighted to find the same peo-
pie there as at the time of the bat
tie.
Mr.. Swain insisted on paying Miss
Agnes McAllister whom he recog-
nized as the woman from whom the
bread had been stolen. She how
ever refused payment saying that
no money was wanted and that she
was glad to have been able to help
the boys during the trying times of
'63. The veteran however insisted,
saying that he would enjoy life bet
ter if the debt were paid and the
money was finally accepted.

THE CLEAN BOSS OF SAN FRAN.
CISCO

Blind Buckley was the boss CT
San Francisco in those days" writes
Richard Barry In Human Life for
October. Arrogant. treacherous,
resuurceful, alert, INSCRIPTIONS and
thoroughly versed on the Weaknesses
Of men, he owned the city as COM
pletely as did ever robber baron
his castle. No man gained political
office without his consent, and the
price of a place of political honor
vas the barteTing of that honor.
Buckley bought and sold franchises,
elevated men to Office and pulled
them down as he wished. From all
he exacted tribute. Today, Blind
Buckley is living in retirement in
san Francisco, a millionaire.
"McNab saw all this, and he could
not believe that sane, Independent
American citizens would permit it
to continue. At twenty he was a
porter in a second-class hotel, and
he belonged to a young mems de-
batting club which highmindedly dis
cussed public affairs in an obscure
room, unmolested by any of the
powers.
About this time the editor of a
weekly paper, hearing a fiery speech
| that McNab once made before his
debating club, asked him to write
contribution. The publication OF
this brought the youthful political
| gladiator to the attention of a few
| discerning minds.
But there was CONSERVATION in

GRIM VERSUS BERRY.

for the first time in the campaign,
Senator Grim spoke of his moral
right to the Democratic nomination

He told how he had worked hand
in hand with William II. Berry in
an effort TO defeat the selection of
Munson delegates to that convention;
how he and Mr.. Berry had counted
noses on the night before the Mum

they had enough delegates between

the nomination of Mr.. Munson; how,
after his nomination, Mr.. Berry had

st. Louis, Oct. 10.-Every boy in

Mr.. Grim again asked his oppon-
ents, who are spreading insinuations
against his private and public char
acter and impugning his motives, to
present some evidence to support
their claims or to do him the justice
of Withdrawing from the field, to
insure the triumph of the reform
forces in this state. He pointed to
his private and public record, and
challenged any man to point to a
single act of his, either in the sem
ate or out of it, which was not in

Abraham Lincoln had a wonder
full facility of putting facts into
words that strike home like blows

we get the goods and the foreigner
gets the money. When we buy the
manufactured goods at home, we
get both the goods and the money"

A Dutch professor has spent con-

says all old theories are wrong. In
the seventeenth century, he says,
when New York was New Amster-
dam, Great Britain was at war with
Holland. There were many clashes
in New Amsterdam between English
and Dutch colonists. The English
called the Dutch ankees-formed

TENER AND LABOR UNIONS.

In a speech made at Sharon, Pa,
John X. Tener put to rout rumors
that had been circulated in the in
dustrial sections misrepresenting his
attitude toward organized labor.
He not only branded as false the
allegations that he forbade men en-
ployed by him to join unions but
went into details on the subject.
He spoke as follows
A report has gained circulation
that / was opposed to the motormen
and conductors of a traction COM
pany in Charleroi, of which ! am an
officer, joining a union. This report
is absolutely false. The fact is these
men do belong to a union and so
far as | am concerned will never be
interfered with. l am not an en-
ployer of labor, but when | was and
operated a glass factory in Buck
hannon, w. Va, only union work
men were employed.
| am in favor of organization and
realize that little can be accom-
plished in a religious, social or in
dustrial way without it, but | hold
that no man who gives permanent
employment to labor is a greater
benefactor of his fellow men than
he who gives money for temporary
relief.
Hence in my opinion every union
man should consider his employers
interests when he seeks. through or
ganization to advance his own well
fare and that of his union. Unde-
sirable citizens and those who use
their members for commercial pur-
poses and to tear down, should not
be permitted to associate with the
right thinking, and right living work
men, than whom there is no better
! citizen.

Relations Of President
and Roosevelt Strained
Meenq al New Haven Yesterday Was Far From Being Cordial
or as Satisfactory as Was Their First Alter The
Colonies Return From Africa

Albany. Sept. 2O-The meeting of
President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt
at New Haven, Conn, yesterday is
the chief topic of conversation in the
Empire State Capital.
1t was plain from all that transpir-
ed before and after the meeting that
the colonel and his close political ad-
visers are not little worried over
the situation in New York state and
came to the president for further evil
dence of his moral support.
President Taft passed through Al
bany yesterday afternoon on his spec
ial train and while in the city an
nounced to his callers anew what he
had said in the Griscom letter-that
he favored the direct primary for the
nomination of congressman and state
Legislators. He understands this to
be the purport of the Cobb bill as
amended by the Seth Low and Joseph
Choate memorial. He said he hoped
that a declaration for such a primary
law would be written into the repub-
lican state platform and that candi-
date for governor in sympathy with
this movement would be nominated.
President Taft and Colonel Roose-
welt did not discuss the question of the
presidency in 1912. Mr.. Taft's posi-
ton is this: He is willing to run II
nominated If his friends think there
is good chance for him to be re-
elected. Mr.. TAFT feels that they will
see to his nomination. MIR. Taft's
political friends say II the American
people want him for second term
that not even Colonel Roosevelt can
prevent his nomination.
II can be stated that the meeting al
New Haven, while II may have beer
successful in its moral advantage tc
the Roosevelt leaders in New Yorl
state. was absolutely barren Of re
suits as to any better understanding
between the president and Colone
Roosevelt as 10 national issues OF
their personal relations in view o.
many recent events.

seems 10 have been arranged regard
ing the New York state situation. Al

themselves. Colonel Roosevelt him
self is said to have let drop the hin
thar as 20 his side of the matter
something would be doing after th'
elections. Mr.. Taft is letting ls1:
look out for itself.
II came out at the conference which
in addition to the Colonel Roosevelt
included Lloyd c. Griscom. Otto Ban
nard and Secretary Norton. that tn

Taft administration is to be endorsed
at Saratoga. No mention of Mr..
Taft as candidate in 1912 will be
made.
In this connection it became known
today that President Taft deprecated
the action of the Ohio republicans
in declaring for him In 1912. He did
not think he should be made an is
sue.
There is no doubt, however, that
the shadow OF 1912 hung over the New
Haven gathering. There was not the
cordiality of old between the president
and the colonel II was the first time
they had met since the story was
given out at Oyster Bay that Colonel
Roosevelt felt Mr.. Taft had not dealt
fairly with him in New York and
had sold out to the bosses there In
return for pledge of delegates In
1912. The president felt the injustice
of that story keenly, it is said, and as
result of IL the relations between hin
and Mr.. Roosevelt can never be the
same again.

cemetery and other hundreds lined

cession with uncovered heads. II was
doubtless the largest private funeral
ever witnessed in the state and with
al the saddest.

the funeral anthems. Nearer My God

when Rev. DR.. Kinard spoke feeling
ly OF the loss the community had
sustained in the death Of the young
editor. there was net dry eye in the
assemblage. The magnificent gray
casket that half dozen Of his closest
personal friends bore to the waiting
chariot was covered with floral tri-
butes and the simple mound in the
beautiful city Of the dead was banked
high with these mute tokens OF love
that came from every quarter Of the
i state.
