HAS A FEW WORDS IN
BEHALF OF PERCY HALY

Speaking of the committee meet
ing last Thursday, the Louisville
Herald said that the. reins of the
Democratic party organization were
controlled by Percy Haly. We
don't know that this is so, but We
hope It is, and II 1t is, the prospects
for victory this November are
greatly enhanced. Haly is the peer
of any politician in the State and
for all of the fact that he has been
maligned from one end of the State
to the other. and has not the con-
fidence of the great mass of the
people that he so truly deserves. It
is fact that whenever Haly was at
the helm, Democracy won. We
have known Haly intimately for al
most ten years and we are here to
state that, his detractors to the con-
trary. there is no fairer. squarer,
truer man or Democrat IN the State.
His word is as good as his bond and

FEMALE TAX COLLECTOR
HELD kLL.OAy RECEPTION
At Murray, Surprised the
Natives But Got Back
Taxes.

She was a mere slip of girl, and
winsome, too; her coming had been
heralded by about a hundred invi-
tations to meet her here Wednes-
day, and they responded with alac-
rity-and with wampum, too, says
the hurry Gazette.
Her name was Miss Lorene Lee
June, of greensboro. She repre-
sented the State Auditors agent,
and her mission to Murray was to
interview some of our worthy prop
erty owners who overlooked such
items as secured notes, diamonds,
cash in bank, and the like, when
the tax assessor called around last
fall. There we're about 100 names
on her receiving list, and the so
cial session was held at the County
Clerks office all day Wednesday.
Your Uncle Daniel" Morris was
"among those present" He sat in
the front row with purse in hand,
always ready to contribute to a
worthy cause, and he came across
with the greater part of $40 note,
and did not bat an eye, but as for
owning diamonds, ivy, wy, $35
stone would look good to me-" But
from all over the county they came
to pay homage to the fair young
lady from the Green river country,
though not few were surprised to
find her the one they were to meet
after having been notified that a.
back tax collector was to be there
on that day, for they expected to
see grim, austere looking man
sitting behind a cannon. But what
Miss LeJune failed in foreclosures
was made up in tact, good looks
and pair of laughing dark eyes
that knew no resistance.
AS result of her visit the State
and county received $500. and she
promises to return within one
months time and several hundred
others will be called upon to pay
back taxes.
OF the hundred property owners
summoned to appear. only IL were
found delinquent. and paid up.
though several others were given a
few days time to settle before suits
were instituted.

AROUND THE WORLD
IN THIRTY-NINE DAYS
French Newspaper Man Trying
To Cut Former Record
in Half.

lager Schmidt, of the new Paris
illustrated daily, Excelsior, on July
II set out from Paris to make
voyage around the world in record
time.
The tour has been organized with
the object of beating the time made
by NJ. Stiegler, of lie Matin, who in
1901 made the tour of the world in
60 days. For month past Excel
sior has been in communication
with most of the remote parts of
the globe to ascertain the possibili-
ties of travel.
NJ. Schmidt started with the pros
pect of being faced with terrible
odds. He may possibly be delayed
by equinoxial gales in the Pacific
by the Manchurian plague. and bv
Canadian forest fires, but he left
here with the firm determination to
do all that is humanity possible to
accomplish the trip in 80 days.
NJ. Schmidt spent several days
in making tour of the Paris stores
to find the biggest trunk with the
least weight, the most compressible
shirts, the finest socks, the smallest
hairbrush and ingenious time and
space-saving devices of all descrip-
lions.
NJ. Schmidt left the Excelsior Of
fees on his voyage at 1 hour and
IS minutes 41% seconds, the Off
cial chronometer being held by
Anne Richard, of the Aero Club,
and drove in one of the most pow
erful cars in Paris to the Nord Sta
ton, where he boarded the express
for Cologne.
The schedule of the voyage drawn
up before the start is as follows.
July %, Irkutsk; July 30, Vladi-
vostok; July 1881, on the japanese
Sea; July 81 (morning), Tsuruga
(evening), Yokohama; August l.
10, on the Pacific; August 10, Van
couver; August 1918, across Can
ada; August IS, Montreal; August
1926, on the Atlantic; August 25.
Liverpool; August 25-26, Paris.
M. Schmidt actually reached Irk-
utsk exactly to the schedule, at $3.50
p. M, July %. He should reach
Vladivostok to-day.
Details of his tour are at pres
ent lacking. owing to the fact that
the Russian Government prohibits
telegraphing in French. - [Paris

'ENTOMBED MINER
REACHES SURFACE
After Three Days of Dark
Imprison.
FOOD WAS SENT DOWN SHAFT
The Rescued, Man Tells Over
Improyison Phone His
Experiences
HEARD HIS REsCUERs AT WORK

Joplin, Mo-, Aug. 2.-Joseph
Clary, imprisoned by a cavern at
the White Oak mine, near this city,
since last Sunday morning, was
reached by rescuers this morning.
He was alive and we'll. When the
last spadefuls of earth were re-
moved by workmen in the shaft and
they dropped through into the
drift, Clary threw himself into their
arms and went, while the shouts OF
thousands cheering at the mouth OF
the mine echoed down the shaft.
Three workmen were digging In
rthe narrow shaft. The bottom sud
denly gave way and they dropped
into the drift at S:25 O'Clock. A
glare of light flashed in on the en-
tombed Clary, and he looked upon
fellow-beings after period OF
darkness which, though .reckoned by
him to be something over four
DAYS. was really exactly three days
and forty-five minutes.
Clary's Imprisonment had Sc
vSrely weakened him. But shouts
from the mouth of the shaft, sounds
from the outer world and gushes OF
fresh air gave heart and strenth to
the miner. At first he had little to
saw save to breathe his thanks.
!. A physician was lowered and ne
administered stimulants. Clary was
hoisted to the surface and set foot
on ton of earth ten minutes after
he was found. Spectators were
kept from him while his father,
brothers and physician hurried him
away to the Clary home nearby,
where his mother, weakened by the
strain of her long vigil, lay i'll. The
physician urged Clary not to talk
until he had gained strength.
oClary is twenty-three years old,
the son of a pioneer mine operator
who has directed the rescue work
without rest since his sons inn
prisonment. Relays of workers be-
gan digging the shaft Sunday and
have worked night and day since.
The first three attempts to drill
a small hole to admit air and
nourishment failed to locate young
Clary, but the fourth was success
full. 1t was found Clary was in i'm
minent danger of drowning from
water rising in the drift. Diggers
in the shaft redoubled their efforts
and the drift was reached hours
earlier than expected.
Standing on high section OF

ground not reached by the steadily
rising water, Clary, late last night
related his remarkable experience
to men ON the surface. Commun;-
cation was obtained with the young
man by means OF telephone.
AS he told of bis long vigil In alb
solute darkness, fraught now with
hope, now with bitter disappoint-
ment, but never with despair, he in
terrupted the conversation now and
then to receive supplies of food
lowered through the five-inch shaft,
which after three holes we're bored
in vain, finally reached the drift
where he was held prisoner.
The suspense he suffered is indi-
Gated in part of his story as told
over the telephone. He said:

the drill and was able to gauge

WHEN HER BACK ACHES
A Woman Finds All Her Energy
and Ambition Slipping Away.

Hartford women know how the
aches and pains that come when the
kidneys fail, make life a burden.
Backache, hip pains, headaches,
dizzy spells, distressing urinary
troubles, all tell of sick kidneys and
warn you of the stealthy approach
of dropsy or Bright's disease.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only. They attack kidney
diseases by striking at the cause.
Can Hartford sufferers desire
stronger proof than this woman's
word?
Mrs. Francis Rutherford, Earl
ington, KY, says: For over three
years I suffered from weak kidneys
and dull pains through the small OF
nv back. Whenever did any work
that required lifting, sharp, shoot
ing twinges darted through my
loins. My back ached at night and
when I arose in the morning Twas
stiff and lame. / generally felt dull
and languid and was also bothered
by a feeling of nervousness. Head
aches we're common and ! had dizzy
spells, during which there was
blurring of my sight. The kidney
secretions were also unnatural.
whenever caught cold it settled
ON my kidneys and at such times
my suffering was aggravated.

once given, there is no question but
that it will be made good. The Re-
publicans made him the butt of
much of their campaign in 1907,

searched the records of the several
Offices he had held with a fine
tooth comb, to find some trace of
graft or crookedness, but nary a
blot upon his record were they able
to uncover, and even his direst enc
mics now freely admit that Haly is
square and honest, has always dis
charged his duties with fidelity and
fights on the level. The fact that he
has made himself what he is
through his own efforts and ability,
coming up from a poor Irish news
boy to be the friend and adviser of
millionaires, makes those who real
ly know him, admire him the more.
The Interior Journal knows that
there Is no political Office that Haly
would have, since as the confden-
tial assistant of John c. C. Mayo he
earns a larger salary than is paid
any official in the State. We know
that he is looking solely to the good
of the Democratic party and with

do, and We are proud to have him

Six Different Methods
Are Prescribed.
ALL SAID TO Be SUCCESSFUL
Instructions Covering the
Wide Range of Human
Characteristics.
INCLUDES THE wOMAN's IDEAS

The Idealist-Put her in glass
case and kneel at her feet and wor-
ship her. Treat her as if she were
a goddess merely tarrying with you
for while. Close your eyes lest
you see her blemishes and your
ears lest you hear her tongue too
often.
The Practical Man-Give her
waterproof shelter, a comfortable
bed, plenty to eat, a few children,
that she may not have time to get
into mischief, and allow her to have
her own way whenever it is best for
her.
The High Brow-Raise her to
your intellectual level-if possible.
Try to make her your companion
and equal. Discuss literature, art
and the topics of the day with her,
even If you are required to do a
tiresome lot of explaining. 1t is
possible for a woman to be more
satisfactory as a companion than a
man. II she has tact-and most
women have-she will never tell
you that you do not know what you
are talking about-and prove 1t.
And If she loves you she will accept
your opinion as the last word on
any subject.
The Low Brow (alias The Brute)
Treat her just as you do your
horse. Feed her enough to keep
her in prime working condition.
Buy her new harness when the old
is likely to reflect discredit upon
you. Say nothing when she works
we'll; beat her when she doesn't.
Drag to others about what a true,
steady puller she is, but don't let
her overhear you. When she is
worn out, get another.
The Average Man-Provide for
her the best you can. Love her a
good deal-in an undemonstrative
way after the first year. Be as true
to her as the strength of the temp
tation will permit. Be a brute to
her. sometimes, and then repent,
apologize and atone. Remember
that she is not a creature of logic,
reason or iron, but an inconsistent,
lovable, breakable being, with faults
more numerous and less grave than
your own.
The Woman Herself-Give her
lots of clothes. Tell her often that
you love her-whether you do or
not. Listen to her when she wants
to talk. Pretend that you like to
have her make a fuss over you,
muss up your hair and sit on your
lap, >wrinkling your best trousers,
when you are well, and to give you
nasty medicine when you are sick.
Should her love become oppressive,
give her children. If you won't or
can't do any of these things, do not
blame her for turning to a pug
dog or an affinity. She must have
something to love.
This is her ideal, but rather than
such treatment from a man she
does not love, she prefers being
treated like a dog by one she does
love.-GLife.

LOS ANGELES HAS
CARPENTER STRIKE
Seven Hundred Men Are Out, Ask
ing for Four Dollars Per Day,
But Quietness Reigns

Los ANGELES, May 2.-That 200
more union carpenters walked out
today because refused demands for
81 per day. making the total 700 out,
was the assertion of union leaders
tonight. Grand Organizer Gray ex-
planned today that all did not walk
out at first owing to a misunderstood
ing as to the time of beginning the
strike. He says many non-union car
penters are joining the union and
leaving their jobs. Secretary Camp
bell, of the Builders Exchange, takes
an optimistic view. He says that the
small contractors have all the men
they want, and there are no calls
from employers for workmen today.
Campbell declares many OF the men
on strike were really discharged and
others were unemployed when the
strike began.
Union bakers who asked for n
nine-hour day and sanitary bakeshops
were quiet today, preferring to wait
developments before taking stringent
means to enforce their requests.

COMMISSIONERS ARE
WORKING FOR PEACE
Judge Carabajal Arrives at Ell Paso
With Plenary Powers From
the Mexican Government

Ell PASO, May 2.-Judge Caraba-
jail. Mexican peace commissioner, ar
rived here tonight surprising every
body connected with the negotiations
as he has not been expected for at
least another day. He Immediately
went into conference with Braniff.
Obregan and Hernandez, who have
been acting as go-between in the ne
gotiations thus far. At the conclu-
sion of the conference. Braniff an
nounced that Judge Carabajal had
brought plenary powers for treating
with the rebels and there will be no
hitch on that score. Carabajal, how
ever, declined to disclose his instruc-
tons.
1t was stated that formal negitia-
tons will be taken up tomorrow in
a tent to be erected half way be-
tween Juarez and the rebel camp.
The rebel leaders today com pleted
their platform, which is a condensa-
tim of the discussion Of the past
three days 1t contains in a general
way their proposition for peace. This
document, with the actual basis for
peace which is being written tonight
by DR.. Gomez is guarded with much
secrecy. There are good grounds for
the belief, however. that the question
of the resignation of Diaz and Corral
is taken up and that the insurrectos
will request that a definite date be
fixed Just what Carabajal has
been instructed to say regarding
Diaz's resignation can only be con-
jectured, but insurrecto leaders do
not deny if he carries the actual as
surance of Diaz's retirement he will
have brought a solution to their prin-
cipal demand.
Late tonight advices were received
here that Governor Ahumada, of Chi
huahua, is on his way to Juarez and
is expected to act in an advisory ca
pacity with Judge Carajabal. 1t is
believed his presence will add to the
declaration of the government that It
it is in earnest in the negotiations.

week. The democratic majority in
the house, as well as the democratic
mem bership Of the committee, are

Clark and Majority Leader Under
wood not to submit bill placing raw
wool on the free list. Many demo-

It is the purpose of party leaders
and progressives who believe in grad
ual reduction of the raw wool plan
now being for so per cent reduction
the first year or a tariff of about six
cents per pound, a cent a pound to
be cut off each year, at the end of
which time the commodity will be

a compromise is looked on with favor
by democrats and such an arrange
ment will doubtless be approved be-

SITUATION IN SONORA
LOOKS DANGEROUS
Americans Are Advised to Flee
From the State as the Rebels
Are Losing Control

DOUGLAS, May 2.--Refugee Am
orleans among the men who reached
Douglas today report widespread pill
Iage in the state of Sonora and the
killing of two Am orleans at Santa
Nina mine, southwest of Ures. A
band of outlaws appeared at the min
ing camp where S. J. Clark was en-
ployed as Waterman. Clark was abb
sent and his wife tried to defend the
camp with a shotgun, but was soon
wounded. The outlaws hid in the
house while the woman bathed her
wounds. When her husband appeared
he was riddled with bullets. After
wards the wife was murdered. The
couple had only been at the mine
a short time. Their former home is
unkn ,wn. Men conversant with con-
ditions are advising all Americans to
leave Mexico, as the situation is get
ting beyond the control of the rebel
leaders. and they are unable to pre-
vent murder and the destruction of
property.
