An ENGLISH Ghost.

A Westmoreland ghost used to haunt
the shores Of Windermere, where the
Lowthers from time immemorial have
been lords Of the lake-the "crier of
Claife." One tempestuous night In
prereformation times cry was
heard across the water by the ferry
man at the Nab inn-"A boat!' The
ferryman, against all his cronies' per-
suasions. at the inn, set out. After
many hours he reached the Nab again,
his boat dragged down by some un-
seen weight and himself with hair on
end, raving lunatic. Soon he died,
and every stormy night his wrath was
heard in agonized shrieks across from
Claife till at last the resident monk of
Furness was sought in his retreat on
Lady Holm and persuaded to LAY"
the unhappy spirit, which he duly did.
Harriet Martineau and others tell the
tale.-London Chronicle.

It seems there is another reason be-
sides the jndical recall why the Inter-
ests hate the Arizona constitution. It
has IN it these words:
mo law granting irrevocably any
privilege, franchise or immunity shall
be enacted.
Under this clause the heritage of the
people could not be bartered away.
There would be no long time tranchis-
es. A splendid clause, and ought to
be in all constitutions.

Congressman L,ndbergh's PROPOSE
tion to investigate the ''bankers
trust, - has attracted much attention,
especially in the prominent papers of
the East. It is understood that there
is favorable feeling in the house
toward the investigation, and some of
the leading members think it should
be done. Mr.. Lindbergh claims that
the Aldrlch currency reform plan is
simply a scheme to give Wall street
further and stronger control of the
finances of the country. A great many
people have suspicion along the same
line, and there should be a full in
vestigation before any legislation is
enacted.

When the time came for the renomi.
nation Of a member of southern Leg
islature, the member sauntered down
to the corner store one night to sound
out the opinion of his townsmen as to
whether he should be sent back to the
capital of his state as lawmaker.
"Well, boys" he said to the assem-
bled politicians. what about it?"

Salt Fer tho Cow.
Cows require from one to eight
ounces Of salt per day. The more con-
centrates they receive the more salt
they require. 1t should be where they
can have access to it every day. Ac-

Wisconsin station, about two ounces
per cow per day Is the average
amount required.

Taft and the republicans who be-
lieve in reciprocity have practically
declared for free trade in agricultural
products. What's good for the farmer
ought to be good for the manufacturer.
The finest thing about reciprocity is
that the alleged friends of protection
have put a breach in the tariff wall
which the enemies of projection all to-
gether have never been able to do.

Sheep, it has been estimated by those

Coroners In England.
In early times the coroner In Eng
land was a revenue officer Of the
crown, and his business was to find
out the criminals, extort their confess
sions and conf1scate their goods to the
crown. From records it appeared that
King Alfred had a prediction for
hanging his coroners because they did
what was unjust.
At the present time practically the
only Office of coroners is to hold in
quests on dead bodies and on treasure
trove and to pronounce judgment in
outlaWry.--London Telegraph.

To Control tuberculosis

Denver, Col, June 29.--;A county
organized to control tuberculosis
should be organized after the fashion
of political organizations" said Geo.
J. Nelbach, Assistant Secretary of the
tuberculosis Committee of the State
Charities Aid Association, before the
Sociological Section of the National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis, in session here.
"Just as our friends, the politicians
have their town, village and city COM
mittees all responsible to a county
committee, and that in turn RESPONSE
hle to the State organization, SO
should we tuberculosis crusaders
have our local, town, village and city
anti-tuberculosis societies all feder-
ated and responsible to county COM
mittee, and that in turn responsible
to the State association. Then ii the
authorities do not enforce the laws
and provide the desired aPproprla-
tions, we will be in position to ere
ate public sentiment and bring strong
pressure to bear upon our public serv-
ants, and, if need be, to go into pol%
tics ourselves and support the candi-
dates who will legislate, execute and
appropriate in the interests of public
health.
"a county thus organized county

a local association in each city, town
and village, all composed of represen-

Lake Toxaway, June 29.-The men
of North Carolina learned in the law
are assembled here, the occasion be-

Bar Association.
The meeting will continue until to-
morrow, and many of the most dis
tinguished men Of the State are here.
While the attendance is already large
it will be augmented and, the "dele-
gates anticipate one of the most en-
ioyable occasions of it's kind in the
history of the Association.
Last night the initial session of the
meeting was held and the program in
cluded some Of the best which the
meeting will furnish.
The assembled delegates were CALL
ed to order by the president of the
Association, Hon. Charles w. Tillett,
following which a beautiful off-hand
speech of welcome found it's way into
the hearts of all present. The vel
come was extended by former Speak
er Walter E. Moore, one of Western
North Caro1ina's most gifted sons,
and it dubbed over with heartiness
of expression and the cordial1ty
which marks the true welcome.
Hon Francis ID. Winston, OF the
Bertie bar, one of the brightest OF
men, and most widely known of North
Carolina lawyers, responded to the ad-
dress of welcome.

Letter Contained "Soft Soap.
Just about the time of the adjourn
ment for dinner Mr.. Parker was delv-

copy of the letter being for the sales
mans own benefit, the other to be
shown to Mr.. Hillman. In the conf
Dental letter to the salesman occur
red the expression that the other
letter contained a lot of "soft soap,''
but it seemed the soap reached the
spot. Hillman, it seemed, had made
the proposition to buy 100000 White
Rolls at $3.70 and get special dis
counts, and if the Ware-Kramer Com
pany sold out to the trust he was to
get $4,000. In the confidential letter
Hillman was denounced by Ware as
being a CRATER.
In the letter for Mr. Hillman's bene-

me more than Mr. Hillman, and /
would like to have his name on our
