Genius nnd Thrift.

Genius and Thrift.
Mark Twain died well off for q sep
tuagenarian of expensive tastes who
raised a family of girls. His known
assets are about $2OO.OO0. Copyright
values aud unpublished manuscripts
mag yield much or little. It's all a
lottery. Twain might have written
with greater brilliancy had he been
less thrifty-nlore of a bohemian.
Like Sir Walter Scott. in his thrifty
middle age he wrote to lift a huge
debt. Naturally he wrote that which
paid the biggest return on the small
est labor.
Many masterpieces on canvas and In
print have been created in an attic
even in a debtors Jail. Horace Greeley
once said in contempt that he held the
note of Edgar Allan Poe for a small
sum and would like to have that paid
before be added to Foe's need Of fame
as an author. AS a rule, the world
considers itself In debt to the genius
who creates imperisbable art. It can
but rejoice In the observation-disclosures Of
Twain. Scot. and Dickens. but win
continue to love the pennIless Poe.
Keats and Dante. not to speak Of pris-
on haunting Cervantes, Bunyan and

Presidential Timber.

Since the death Of Governor johnson
of Minnesota last September the great
est break In the ranks, of possible can
didates for president is the shelving of
Governor Hughes Of New York on the
supreme court bench. No one sup
poses that a third defeat has eliminat-
ed Bryan or that 1.-THE wise custom
which limits the tenure to two terms
will not be stretched to meet a "great
national emergency" in the case of the
imam from Elba." After Hughes there
is but one man who can certainly car
ry New York. but there may be anoth-
er by 1912, judging from the way May
or Gaynor is making good.
1t has by no means been the rule to
take presidents from among the gov
ernors, although governors loom con
spicuously among candidates now talk
ed of. Folk. Harmon and Marshall
have achieved gubernatorial records.
and it is possible that DR.. Woodrow
Wilson Of Princeton may be on that
list in 1912. If DR.. Wilson arrives by
way of the New Jersey statehouse the
Democrats will have four governors
and possibly Il mayor to choose from,
and there is still time to work up a
presidential boom for some Republican
governor elected in 1910. New York
has none in sight for the blank created
by Hughes promotion.

THE SAME OLD
STORY AGAIN
Max Gave Garrison the Same Kind
of a Deaf In a Recent Game
At Garrison

As to the farce staged Saturday
afternoon, the less said the better,
From a spectators or fans stand
point it was disgusting, to say the
least, and very much to be deprecat-
ed. With the score 3 to0in favor
of Max in the third inning and
Washburn at bat they succeeded in
getting two men on bases. Barber
hit thru short; then the outfielder in
returning the ball to the catcher to
get the first base runner at the
plate, made a very high overthrow.
The Max catcher takes off his NIT
and throws it up, meeting the ball
and stopping it. The umpire calls
it a "block" ball and the ball not
being returned to the pitcher in the
box, all runners score making a tie.
Now d most wonderful thing hap
pens, Max refuses to proceed with
the game-the umpire gives them
the time specified in the guide to go
on with the game and when not
obeyed forfeited the game 8 to . to
Washburn. But wonders never
cease! Here the home manage
ment steps in, overruled the umpire,
started the game again and played
three more innings. This is a first
class way to induce rowdy baseball.
If the home management do not
stand back of the umpire, any play
er can break upag game. There is
an admission fee charged here, and
people do not pay their money to
see "baby' act like the one sprung
here last Saturday. A bystander
very ittingly remarked that it re-
minded him of ball games played
by small boys on some vacant lot.
It invariably comes to an end when
some little tow headed urchin all
of a sudden bawls cut, IF l can't
do as [ please I'll go home to ma"
That's ":joy."
The game Sunday was one of the
best games ever played here, in
spite of the fact that it was played
in a drizzle of rain. The final score
was as follows:
Max 1000 0 l l o.
i Washburn 0 0 0 l 0 O 0 0 OIL

High Prices In France.

1t is often said that America Is not
alone under the reign of high prices.
Tourists expecting cheapness in France
have been disappointed the last couple
of years because actual test showed
their estimates too low. The rise is
not confined to food. and the whole
may perhaps be traced to higher stand
ards rather than to increase In price Of
particular food commodities.
Bread in France Is now a little more
than 8 cents a pound and was about 3
cents. level in 1904. Beef is about IA
cents. which is but a trifing advance
in four years. Sugar sells at 6 cents.
an advance of about 10 per cent since
1904. . Coal is 1925. a very slight in
crease, and raw coffee 8 cents. an ad-
vance Of ! cent in four years. But
the French are now getting better
housing and want more of the Injuries
of life. and they cater to easy money
when providing for Americans. No
provision is made for going it cheap"
A bathtub has succeeded the tradition
al pint cup of water for daily ablu-
tons, and so on. Fresh fruit and vege-
tables are demanded. and these come
high.
