ton of his continued interest in the
university for the % years in which he

mass of Princetonians in this song.
Mr.. Pyne and President Wilson

WOMEN WANT A PLACE.
In the Parade Arranged for the Fourth
in Chicago.

Chicago, June 11.-Will the suf-
fragettes be permitted to exploit their
cause in the big historical pageant in
Chicago's sane" celebration of the
Fourth of July?
This question has brought the first
controversy in the making of arrange
ments for the spectacular parade, but
it is a controversy that both sides be-
lieve will be adjusted without friction.
Mrs. George w. Trout, president of
the political equality league, went to
F. Stafford Eaton, secretary of the
pageant committee of the Sane Fourth
association, with suggestion that the
Suffrage league be represented in the
parade with a float bearing banners
advocating votes for women. Mr..
Eaton said he hardly thought it would
do to give any political significance
to the pageant, but announced that
the question will be taken up with
the committee.
Votes for women" Liberty for
woman as well as man." and similar
expressions are what Mrs. Trout and
her associates want shown on the
float of the Political Equality league.

JUNGLE JOE" ON TOUR.
Speaker Will Roll Up Sleeves and
Enter Campaign.

Washington, June 11.-Joseph G..
Cannon has decided to make an ex-
tensive speaking tour in the coming
campaign He made this known in
the course of a conversation with
friends. Uncle Joe said he had not
decided just what states he would Wis
it, but he would go to a good many of
them and do all in his power to bring
about the election of a Republican
house.
eff I accepted all the invitations
that have been extended to me-" said
Speaker Cannon. II would be on the
move for at least six months. I have
not had time to make up my itinerary.
l shall do so after l return to Dan
Vile upon the adjournment of con-
gress.''
That Uncle Joe is in a happy frame
of mind and optimistic over the fu
ture is shown by his manner. He
perked up wonderfully over the vic
tory of the standpatters in Iowa, and
almost Rugged Representative Walter
1. Smith. who won out in the Ninth
Iowa district over the Cummins forces
when that fighting character returned
to Washington today.
In the coming campaign Mr.. Can
non will speak under the direction of
the Republican congressional commit
tee. He will be put on special car
and sent ont where it is believed he
can do the most good. 1t is not be-
lieved here that the speaker will in
wade any of the insurgert districts He
may visit certain states, such as Iowa
and Minnesota. where there are dis
trict or two that have stood by regu-
lars in the midst of a bunch of in
surgent districts.
Uncle Joe intends to preach straight
out orthodox Republican doctrine. He
will speak largely on the tariff, defend
ing the Payne-Aldrich tariff and defy
ing those who have criticised 1t.

The CAT CAME BACK.
After It's Owner Was Hanged the
Other Prisoners Drove It Away.

Kansas City, Mo-. June 11.-Faithful
to it's owner, a yellow cat followed Rob-
ert Davis, a negro to the scaffold in
the county Jail here and thus did it get
into bad repute with the colored pris-
oners. After the execution the negroes
refused to have anything to do with the
cat.
Deputy James Gilwee tried to find a
home for the feline. He placed it in the
cell of "Toots'' Dale, Davis compan-
ion in the death cell. The negro beg
ged the marshal to take the cat away
and his request was compiled with.
Then the other prisoners ran the cat
away from the cell section of the Jail
with their brooms.
When the death warrant was read
to Davis, the cat was perched upon his
shoulder.

Since last March Cauble has started
a quiet hunt for supporters for the
nomination and from the string of
names of Kansas voters attached to
his petitions he has been meeting with
genuine success.
Cauble has served Wilson county
with credit for four years as county.
celrk He has convictions that the
state auditors office should go to a
county clerk on the same theory that
county treasurers should be promoted
to state treasurer.
He thinks Wilson county is entitled
to a representative in the state offices
and every citizen there shares that be-
lief. Mr.. Cauble is a pleasant man to
meet. well qualified to fill the Office to
which he aspires and the Republicans
over the state will not go wrong if
they support the little county clerk
from the Third district.

You cannot afford to grow old.
In these days of strenuous competition
it is necessary to maintain, as long as

It is impossible to do this without re-

The presence of Dandruff indicates
the presence of a burrowing germ
which lives and thrives ON the roots

CHRISTMAS is COMING.

There are some people in the land
who ate too much turkey yesterday
They have that stuffed" feeling to-
day and may be inclined to take a
pessimistic view of things. But this
won't last long There are matters of
too great interest in the immediate flu
ture.
Christmas is coming
There are many things TO prepare
for between now and Dec. 25. The
wise people are already beginning.
They want to purchase their presents
early and get them to their destination
in time. They want to take the bur-
den off the express and postoffce peo-
pie by sending their holiday offerings
in ample time.
There will still be the foolish kind
who will delay their purchases till
about 10 o'clock on the night Of Dec.
"a. These have no such thing as
hurry in their makeup. They don't
care either for themselves or any one
else. 1t is this class that takes the
heart out of the poor tired clerks and
adds to the burdens of others.
Why not get ready early?

Trains Going West.
OUT IN THE OPEN.

The people of the villages, towns
and cities Of the country are being
educated more and more to getting
out into the open. This is especially
true OF those who are confined closely
In offices and stores. There are a
large number of the 100000 people
of the country who are cooped up a
greater part of the time. Many of
them never know what a days outing
Is. Others never get any-except a
few days off in the summer.
There is a growing custom of get
ting outside more. Many people find
recreation in attending athletic games
Of some kind, others in hunting, still
others in fishing. 1t takes some in
centive to get a man away from his
desk. 1t is a hard proposition to in
duce anyone to go out purely for the
sake of exercise-unless there is some
other reason.
Most men have some kind of an out
door hobby. They should cultivate it,
A days tramp afield after game has
it's pleasures for many. Others regard
such things as the height of folly. All
cannot take the same view of things
-or John Burke might be governor
of North Dakota the rest of his life.
If you don't like one kind Of outdoor
sport or exercise, try some other-get
out and enjoy the fresh air-let your
lungs expand-get some long unused
muscles into play-get new interest
in life-and don't be cooped up at a
desk all the time-breeding disease
and shortening your existence.
Outdoor work not only increases
ones physical enjoyment, but 1t adds
to the mental pleasures. It makes one
forget the dull cares and worries Of
life and gives them new interest
a new perspective.
