ment Of the mass Of Americans-but weak

GIRLS, 4 LOVELY RIDDLE:
WHAT DOES A HAT COST I
Wants Expert Advice as to Price Of
Hat He Must Buy on Bet.

New York, November 8.-What does
woman's hat cost? Now, don't all
speak at once; just write the answer
to Sol. NJ. Ireland, president of the
village OF Rye, n. Y You will do him
favor, and he is very apprectative
He is the town undertaken, and the
owner of the morgue, but that is not
what is troubling him. He onlg wants
ID know the price of woman's hat,
and lie doesn't care whether it's a
"dinga-lng" or not, just so it ia a
hat.
The question that is vexing Ireland
came up In this way. He is member
of the school board, and in an argu-
ment with woman teacher he ex-
citedly exclaimed that he'd bet her a
hat that Senator J. MayLiaw Vain
wright, of Rye, would not be renom-
mated. The young woman took the
bet. The senator was re-nominated
and Ireland wants to pay his bet, bat
re says he does not know whether a
woman's hat costs twenty-five cents
or 5000 The village president fears
he may have to send to Paris for the
heaigear, and he sings song that
sounds something like, MY bonnet lies
over the ocean"
His friends say this is case where
q hat will free Ireland.

What Type Means.

Trueness to type Or uniformity
means that the ears should all look
alike, if a red cob corn all must have
red cobs, and if large ear corn all
must be large, each must be twin to
the, other. Fault in this particular
means adulteration.
Shape of ear means that it must
have the proper taper and the rows
must be straight. The ears should tap
er only slightly.
Color of grain and cob means that if
the grain is white the cob must be
white; if the grain is yellow the cob
should be red. Any variation from this
denotes adulteration
Vitality of the seed is characterized
by the length of the groove in the
grain. A long groove denotes a Wigs
Gus embryo.
The tips of the ears should be WE'LL
filled out, also the butts, with we'll de-
veloped grains.
The kernels should all be uniform
in size and shape. The shape of the
grains should almost be rectangular,
not toothpick shape.
Long Ears the Leaders.
The ears should lie as long as pos
sible so long as they conform to the
other conditions of uniformity and
shape.
The circumference of the ear, enc
third of the distance from the butt
should be tnree-fourths of the length.
There should be only a shallow fur
row between the rcws. Deep burrows
in@.cate round shoulders in the grains,
and produce a small percentage of
grain.
The kernels should fill up the space
at the cob. Failure in this particular
indicates a poor yield of grain.
The proportion of grain in perfect
corn should be from Sc to So per cent,
of the weight of grain and cob.
The corn on Saturday was graded
according to the rules given above, and
are given here that the farmers may
be guided in the future in selecting
ears of corn for seed or for a con
test.

NO PLACE FOR GAMBLING HELbS
AND BLIND TIGERS.

If there are gambling places and
blind tigers-anl the two generally go
toge5her-in this city it is plainly up
to the authorities to see that they are
suppressed and those responsible for
their existence punished.
Such places inevitably lead to the
decentralization of young men, to crime
on their part, and frequently to scenes
of homicide.
Ninety percent. or more, of the cit
liens of Americas, are law abiding in
every respect, proud of the city and its
good name. and DESTROYS to throw
around their children, and the children
of others, all the protection possible.
Every gambling place and blind tlg-
er is direct invasion of the home cir
Gle, tending to draw into its clutches
some boy who but for their unlawful
existence might escape the ruin that
all too frequently accompanies loiter-
ing about places of this character.
There is no room in this community
for sIch places and absolutely no ex-
cuse for their existence. In a small
city like this 1t is comparatively easy
for the authorities to learn of their
existence, and public opinion is suffi-
ciently strong to put an end to them
when the offenders are brought before
the courts.
If gambling fas been going on in
this city it should be stopped and f
t1ind tigers are being run their pro-
prietors Should find their way to the
chain gang.
There is no use in temporizing witt
evils of this kind federation of such
places is an open invitation to deeds
OF violence, is a confession of a weak
ness on the part of the auti critics,
and calls for an expression of opinion
on the part of the vast majority OPP
posed to them that will be clear and
unm.stakable.
Americas is city OF homes, city
of people who respect the laws, who
wish their boys reared safe, as far as
possible, from the destroying influences
OF gambling joints, and it's citizens
WHO care<more for their homes ana
their children than they do for law
violators should see to it that such
places, if there are any, be broken up
and kept broken up

A FEELING OF DISGUST.
Philadelphia Record.)

1t is not strange that a feeling OF
profound disgust has arisen in New
York in Witnessing the mingled cant
and hypocrisy of RooseveH's crusade
In behalf of political morals, in view
Of his own promotion of wholesale cor
ruption when President of the UniteI
States.
The Dear Hartman" letter offered
sufficient proof of lis personal share
in the political corruption which he so
sanctfmoniously deplored. The New
York Evening Post reveals that be-
sides the Hartman contribution of
100000, II. c. Frick, the Steel Trust
magnate, and H. Mex. Twombly, the
railroad baron of the Vanderbilt con-
nection, were each bled by Roosevelt
for 100000 for expenditure in New
York in tie campaign of 1904.
Twombly's contribution was not
made as another dear friend" and
admirer OF Roosevelt but as a repre-
sentative of vast railroad interests.
One Of the effects of tricks timely
tribute was witnessed in Roosevelts
approval OF the absorption of the
Tennessee Coal and Iron Company BY
the Steel Trust, which made the most
gigantic combination of capital in the
world. A revival of these scandalals
and OF others of like character was
provoked by Roosevelt's crusade of
political morality in order to present
him in a true light before the people
whom he seeks once more to caiole.
1t Is hard but necessary lesson.
