ADMIRE THE TELEPHONE GIRL
According to This, II Is Little Less
Than Sin to Get Impatient
With One of Them.

One member of the family was
quarreling over the wire with the
telephone operator at the other end.
When the brief dispute was ended
another member of the family said :
"You ought not to do that. You
ought never to say an impatient
word to a telephone operator. You
can't do enough to make the work
easy for them. Were you ever in a
telephone exchanged
"No," replied the guilty one, look
ing repentant.
"Well, 60 to the first one you have
an opportunity to visit. The man.
agcr will have some one show you
through, and you never will lose pa
/ tience again with one of those girls.
You will be Inundated and amazed
and instructed to see what wonder

patient and really self-sacrifcing
work they perform, hour after
hour-nerve-racking, straining work
for thankless public. You will re-
spect and esteem every one of
them and you will feel that nothing
is too good for them, instead of be-
ing critical of a slight mistake that
may at times creep in. The wonder
is that they do anything right, con-
sidering the difficulties with which
they have to contend, instead of CIV
ing us the really marvellous service
they do. If you want lesson in

durance and all the other virtues,

BUT BOOKS LIVE ON.

Many man lives a burden to the
earth; but a good book is the pre-
cious life blood of a master spirit,
embalmed and treasured up on pur-
pose to a life beyond life. 1t is
true no age can restore life where
of, perhaps, there is no great loss,
and revolutions of ages do not oft
recover the loss of rejected truth,
for the want of which whole nations
fare the worse. We should be wary,
therefore, what persecution we raise
against the living labors OF public
men, how we spill that seasoned life
of man, preserved and stored up in
books, since we see a kind of homi-
eide may be thus committed, some
times a martyrdom, and, if it extend
to the whole impression, kind OF
massacre, whereof the execution ends
not in the Staying of an elemental
life, but strikes at the ethereal and
fifth essense, the breath of reason it.

teresting one.
BY profession Mr.. Hawkins is a
lawyer; but he was always a book
worm. Many years ago he met a
widely known editor who was so
struck with the way he discussed
literature that he asked him if he
ever did any writing himself, and
that if so would he allow him to
see some Of his work.
The young lawyer was not long
in producing one of his manuscripts.
"H'm," said the editor, after read
ing a few pages, 'want to sell it?"
Mr.. Hawkins jumped at the
chance, suggesting the modest re-
enumeration of S. a thousand words.
"I'll give you several times that
amount and we'll start publishing
right away" said the editor.

CIark'S Weekly News
of the Harness Horse
(By Palmer L. Clarke

IL 10 IOO Odu tidI IllO UuStllllS
city of Muskogee, Okla, has al
lowed itself to be made the tool of
bookmakers and pool room owners
in permitting a continuous, merry
go-round running meeting on its
splendid trotting track. While
such a meeting may mean a little
present success. it cannot but work
harm to that locality in the long
run as a breeding and trotting
point. Such has been the history
of every trotting plant that has
been induced to help the gamblers
by giving running meetings. Far
from being the Sport of Kings"
such running meetings deteriorate
into nothing more or less than a
gambling machine, little different
from roulette or the paddle wheel.
They do not tend to promote any
legitimate phase of the horse in
dustry, but simply afford means
for bookmakers and pool rooms to
continue their business. under
cover in most cities and a menace
to good citizenship wherever they
are permitted.
For instance. the gamblers make
arrangements with the owners or
managers of a racing plant to give
running meeting. Said mana
gers are either guaranteed GER
tain sum aside from gate receipts
or any other source of income, or II
percentage of the money taken in
by the various pool rooms in varl-
Gus parts of the country, so that 1t
is a 'cinch" the association will
make money regardless of any
local support. The reports of the
meeting now running at Musko-
kee are published in detail in the
Metropolitan daily newspapers
and in fact in the sporting columns
of papers all over the country.
Why?
Solely and simply for the bene-
fit of the pool room sharks and
gamblers.
Legitimate trotting meetings
which are patronized by the best
citizens of the country, which
tend to the advancement of the
great breeding interest Of the
country are dismissed with line
or nothing at all by these papers
because they are conducted with
out gambling being the paramount
interest. Editors and owners of
such newspapers will feel highly
indignant at being charged with
playing into the hands of the gam
blers; but they are doing so, new
ertheless.
This season the Muskogee Trot-
ting Association has received the
largest entry list for its fall meet

THE NEWS AT THE CAPITAL.

City of Mexico. April 7.-The propo- sition ofs Madero to resign the provi- sional presidency in favor of some member of the DiaZ cabinet came to the government officials as a distinct surprise. When the news was trans mitted to Limantour by the Associated Press correspondent. it elicited no com ment but a request to call tomorrow.
 Similar answers were given at the homes of other officials They were not prepared to make a statement. and none could be obtained from the home of the president.
 Unless all the members of the cabinet possibly with the support of congress agree to Madero's terms, there is but one man in the republic who can an swer the rebel leader. and that is the president himself
 That the members of the cabinet will go that far on the road toward peace is not expected. No admission was made by any official today that any direct overtures of peace were made to Madero.
