fails In all. Home is woman's realm,
given into her hands to regulate, gov
ern and beautify. II she fails here
she may look in vain for another king
dom; for she has failed in the only
spot where she could have ultimately
succeeded. She has laid down the
jewel which God gave her to bright
en- and polish, and in their place
finds nothing but dust and ashes.
No heart is insensible to words of
praise or the kindly smile of appro-
baton; and none are utterly above
being affected by censure or blame.
Children are particularly sensitive in
this respect. Nothing can discourage
a child more than spirit of incessant
fault-finding; and perhaps nothing
can exert a more baneful influence
upon both parent and child. If your
little one, through the day, has been
pleasant and obedient, and you lay
to him, my son, you have been good
today, and it makes me very happy"
and If, with more than a usually affec-
tionate embrace, you say Good
night, my dear child" throb of sur
pressed feeling fills his breast, and
he resolves on always earning such
approval.

SMITH HLEAVES THE GOVERNORS OFFICE Hon. John SlatOn Will Pre-
 side for Sixty Days TO CALL AN ELECTION Will Not Move to Executive Mansion, But Will Use City Residence on
 Peachtree Street-Business
 Will Be Mostly Routine
TO CALL AN ELECTION

Atlanta, November 7.-(Special )-HIoke Smith leaves the governors office next week. Wednesday, November 15. when he will turn it over to Hon. John M. Slaton. president of the senate, which official, the law provides, shall preside as gov ernor for 50 days in the event of the death, resignation or inability of the gov ernor.
 One of the first official acts of Governor Slatun will be to call an election for gov ernor to fill the vacancy, and this election must be held within not less than 30 nor more than 60 days from the date on which he enters the office.
 The indications are now that this cleo ton will be held about Wednesday, Jan uary 10, as the 60-day limit would end on January IA, which is Sunday In the meantime the general assembly will be called into extra session immediately fol- lowing the election so as to inaugurate the new governor
 Other than this, Governor Slaton's ad- n,nistration will be so far as is now known, simply a matter of dealing with the outline of the office, though he is em- powered to exercise any of the functions which by law fall to the governor.
 Governor Smith will bequeath him sev- cral interesting problems, among them the question of freight rates on the Western and Atlantic in connection with which he has ordered a suit brought against the les see by tke attorney general. The Duck

town. Tenn, sulphur fume problem is also still pending and there are others of minor consequence. Governor Saton may also have few appointments to make of judges and solicitors of city and county courts, where vacancies occur during his 60 day term.
 Governor Slaton will not move into the executive mansion-it is scarcely lworth the while for 60 days use. Gov. crnor Smith did not use it, preferring to remain in his West Peachtree street home. He thought perhaps, he woull not need it for long time, and then too, the legislature was talking about selling it.
 So Governor Slaton will use his city residence on Peachtree at Pine street as the executive mansion. It may at least be the scene of a few interesting Tolitical conferences.
 It may turn out too, that Governor Slaton will do some interesting things during his brief occupancy of the gov ernor's chair. He has political ambition and enjoys political life; and this is a splendid opportunity for him to turn to good account for the future.
 If former Gov. Joe M Brown had not been in the race for governor, it is pretty well understood that MT. Slaton would have been among the candidates But when Governor Smith was elected tO the Selldte MT SldIOn stated In an interview that he hoped Governor Brown would run; that if he would do so, he (Slaton) would keep out of the race and would contribute 5000 to Browns campaign fund.
 The development of the race is now well known, but Jack" Slaton, as ne is known to his friends, has always been regarded as splendid gubcrnatorial timber. He Is also prominently talked of in connection with the candidacy for The United States Senate, and whether he will run against Senator Ho,Sc Smith in 1914. is just nowFa subject of interesting political speculation.

A WOMAN LEADER!
Police Say Mrs. Baldwin Is
Brains of Yegg Gang.
CLAIMS TO Be BOOK AGENT.
Pttsbure Officials Say That Woman
and Husband, on Pretense of Selling
Books, Enter Homes and Bus-

Blowers information.
CLAIMS TO Be BOOK AGENT.

Pittsburg Oct. 19.-Mrs. William e.
Baldwin, a prepossessing little book
agent, and her husband are in custody
here, both accused of being the brains
of the notorious automobile bandits
and safe blowers who have pillaged
throughout western Pennsylvania for
many months.
That the pair led dual lives, stalling
by day as book agents to lay lines
for the night attacks by the safe
crackers, is the charge made by Police
Superintendent McQuaid.
Thousands of circulars have been
rushed throughout the country for the
arrest of Thomas Monahan, Harry
Wilson, alias "Sheeny Harry" and
Harry Diehn, notorious safe crackers,
whose Bertillon records are to be
found not only in every big city in
America, but in England, France and
Germany as well. They are said to be
remnants of the old Mickey Gleason
gang, which, it is said, even made an
dllClhpJ " lhC hilhlotly VI
ance in France.
That this gang has operated in other
parts of the United States within the
past year is the belief of the Pittsburg
authorities.
Five safes were blown around the
city limits of Pittsburg in three
months, and in each case the safe was
drilled with the electric current from
light bulbs, blown with nitroglycerin,
and the plunder carried off in an auto
mobile. in which a woman was one of
the figures.
Baldwin was arrested in Brookville,
Pa, by Inspector Walsh and Detec-
tives Wills and Difiore and brought to
this city.

SLASHES HIS LANDLORD.
Fight Follows Demand For Rent and
May End Fatally. VI

Philadelphia, Oct. 10. - During an
alteration over unpaid rent, Andrew
Wist, colored. proprietor of a tene-
ment house, was stabbed six times, it
is alleged, by Henry Jones, in the
latter's room. Wist was rushed in an
unconscious condition to Hahnemann
hospital, where, it is said, he has but a
slight chance of recovery.
Immediately after the stabbing,
Jones ran away. The police have sent
description of him all over the city.
Jones and his wife occupy the third
story front room in the house. Wist
came to their room and asked them
for the rent of the past week.
According to Mrs. Jones, her hus-
band told Wist that he did not have
the money, whereupon, she alleges,
Wist started to break up her furni-
ture. This so angered her husband,
Mrs. Jones declared, that he picked up
Il butcher knife and started to slash
Wist with it.
A policeman made an investigation
and arrested Mrs. Jones. She is held
as a witness.

EXTEND TAFT TOUR
President viii Visit TenneS.
see and Kentucky.
SPEAKING IN BUTTE TODAY.
Present Trip viii Be Longest Ever
Taken by President-Out Of the
South Until After Election In
November-Baek In Wash
ineton Nov. 10.

Ogden, Utah, Oct. ia new mile
age record for a presidential trip will
be set by President Taft before he re-
turns to Washington. To the 1900
miles of the present schedule Mr.. Taft
has decided to add some eighteen days
of travel.
Additions to the itinerary include a
day in West Virginia, four days at
Hot Springs, Va, for a rest, two or
three days at his home in Cincinnati
and a tour through Kentucky and Ten
nessee. with probably a stop in Vir-
ginia on the way to Washington. This
will delay the presidents return to
Washington nearly three weeks, bring
ing him to the White House about
Nov. 10, little more than two weeks
before the opening of the regular ses-
sion of congress.
In that time he will have to prepare
his message on departmental and 9th
er governmental affairs, for his plans
for tariff revision on the report Of the
tariff board on Schedule X, which is
to be ready for congress upon its con-
vening, and put his house ia order gen
orally for the arduous work of the
coming session.
The tour of Kentucky and Tennes-
see was contemplated when the it
inerary for the present trip was under
consideration. The lateness of the ad-
iournment of congress last summer,
however. forced the president to short
en- his trip; also he was advised by
Henry Watterson of Louisville to post
pone his visit TO Kentucky until after
the elections had been held there in
November, lest his visit might be con.
stfued by the Democrats to mean an
interference in state politics.
Details for the trip through Ken.
lucky and Tennessee have not yet been
arranged, but Secretary Hills is in
touch with the persons in charge Of his
visit to the various towns.
Butte, Mont, Oct. 19.-The president
arrived here at 10 o'clock this q. IN.
Stops of a few minutes each were
made at Ogden, Logan and Brigham
City. Utah, where the president made
short talks to the crowds who vel
coined him. Most of the route since
Tuesday has laid over the sage brush
and cactus lands of Nevada and Utah
The railroad officials placed some OF
the members of the presidents party
in the engine cab in the trip through
the Devils Playground" and the "Fu,
neral Range" in the Mojave desert.
