The man who has food for reflec-
ton seldom has stomach for it.
It is easy enough to have a hand
in a good thing if you can get close
enough to it to touch it.
You can tell just by looking at
some people that their guardian
angels are having a hard time.
The reason that so few persons
get rich quick is because there are
many that have the same ever.
Economy is thing you do now
in order that you may not have to
do something worse some other
time.

Mr.. Peterson called at the attor-

that although Attorney General
Simpson was not in the city, that
an opinion would be given if the
governor demanded it,
Criminal Courts Only Recourse.
This information was conveyed to
the governor who refused to demand
the opinion, hedging it is said under
the cover "this is just political
scheme to get Mr.. Hazen.
This leaves the Hazen charges in
the hands of the attorney general
who refuses to give an opinion on
them and this with a complete back
down on the part of the governor
leaves Mr.. Peterson depending en-
tirely upon the criminal courts for
further procedure.

Horse Trod on Flowers,

1t was a popular reception in every
sense of the word. Myriads of dainty
white handkerchiefs 1uttered in the
air on either side of the fashionable
avenues through which the pro-
cession passed in it's early stages and
seemed to keep time with the hoarse
cheering of the masculine element,
while children tossed out nosegays
and basket full of loose flowers,
only to be trampled under the feet
of the horses or crushed under the
wheels of the carriages.
When the carriage turned into
Piccadilly large number of men,

Guarded by $4,000 Troops.

Fifty thousand troops lined the
route and at every important street
intersection there was stationed
military band, which played the
national anthem as the royal car
riage passed. Back of the troops
were the spectators, veritable sea
of faces, men, women and children,
enthusiastic almost to wildness.
Never before, probably, had a
British sovereign received more
cordial greeting at the hands of his
or her subjects. The roar started
at the moment that the King and
Queen descended the steps of the
palace to their carriage, and it last
ed until their return.

The wonderful lac,, of nervousness
and admirable self-control of DR..
Dumas, in the face of charges which
If proven true will land him in the
penitentiary is such that many of
his fell townsmen at Cass Lake ex-
press doubt as to the truth of the
claims made by the state fire mar

pleasant and unruffed and asserting
his innocence and absolute confidence
that when he springs what he calls
his trump cards" he will have no
trouble in proving that he is inno-

While no admission is made by
the detective it is known that some
convincing statements have been Sc
cured within the past five hours,

foreign relations committee, and while
he is said to be in favor of abrogating
the treaty with Russia, because of that
country's refusal to recognize proper
ly accredited passports of certain
American citizens, he is insistent that
it be accomplished without affront.
Chairman Sulzer, of the house COM

the original resolution to abroGate the
treaty, declared today that he would
not oppose any modification of the
house resolution that the senate might
desire to make.
Russia has objected strongly to the
terms employed in the Sulzer resolu-

with having violated her treaty
pledges.
Members of the senate foreign rela-

IS SECRET OF EVERGLADES
Once a Volcano Top, the Place 10
Now Remarkable for lts
Fertility.

One CT the strange facts about the
Everglades region Of Florida is that it
Is really a decayed mountain top. The
crest is formed of massive limestone,
usually covered by mantle of sand.
in this formation are numberless pot
holes. which vary in size from few
feet to thousands of acres; also count
less lakes of fresh water. springs and
FREQUENT subterranean streams and
pools.
a few miles north of Cape Sable is
an outcrop of limestone which projects
to Lake OEeechobee In this outcrop
is in extensive shallow basin extend
ing 100 miles north and south and
about 20 miles east and west, while
the altitude of its rim is L. feet above
mean level low tide in Biscayne bay
and little less above the Gulf of Mex
leo
As result of the weather and flow
Ing water the rim has been worn into
fantastic shapes. The depth of the
basin varies from one foot at the rim
TO twelve feet in places, but generally
the rock floor Is from depth of one
to Fix feet. And there is the secret
Of the fertility of the Everglades.
Above the entire rock floor rises lay
er Of muck, formed of an alluvial de-
post and of decayed vegetable matter.
This deposit varies from a few inches
10 several feet in thickness. The Wa
ter covering this deposit comes from
springs that in turn have their source
