Senator Shively is being congratul-

ably be recalled to testify before the
house committee on expenditr- -es for
the state department as to his partici-
patton in the Santo Domingo customs
receivership. and as alleged, the alb
normal compensation he received. He
was before the house committee yes
terday and sought to justify the fact
that although he received fee OF $4O.-
900 from the United States for his SER
vices, which actually covered but a
few months, although nominally ex.
tending over nearly two years. that he
then exacted from the Santo Domingo
republic an additional compensation Of
100000. In the Santo Domingo case
Roosevelt appointed Hollander to
nominally sift the claims of the for

yeport those that were entitled to con.
sideration. Complaint has been made
BY many American creditors Of Santo
Domingo that Hollander arbitrarily
turned down many American claims.

was the manner In which he apparent

Marion, Ind, May 25.-Mrs. Rosa

near Vistula, Mich, is the true name
of the woman arrested at Columbia
City, Indiana, and brought here to
answer to a charge of stealing a
horse and buggy from James Squires,
local liveryman.
To the police the woman gave her
name as Mary Miller, and though she
confessed to stealing the horse and
in court she steadfastly declined to
reveal her real identity, claiming she
wished to protect the good name of
her family.
Sheriff Tony George has returned
from Michigan after having establish
ed the identity OF his prisoner He
found that she was known to her
of ability and skillful painter, and
never had been suspected of stealing.
For years she had made livelihood
selling her paintings.
Sheriff George found her home filled
with her pictures and in her studio
was an unfinished painting.
Ten days ago, Mrs. Berry, giving
her name at Mile. engaged a rig at
the Squires livery stable, stating that
she wished to make a drive into the
country. She did not return, and a
few days later she was arrested at
Columbia City, where she had sold
the horse and buggy.
Since being confined in the Marion
Jail the SIS received from the sale of
the horse was found sewed in the lin
ing of her skirt. She spends most

from the start. 1t is a live issue we
have presented, and it is live cam

Earlham, feel that this is serious
business. and that they are called on
to give it serious consideration. 1t is
not question of 'Shall,I give?' but
one of 4 want to give all I can: Just
how much can l afford?' The pledges
now on file at headquarters show that
many of our friends are putting Earl
ham ahead of personal things They
are impressed with the importance of
the emergency and are putting aside
minor things in order to meet this big
one. What they can afford is being
measured by what can be denied.
"Others who are financially able to
give largely. have done so and are
continuing to do so. l hope that all
who will give to this cause will do SO
promptly as well as generously. 1t
should be remembered that all pledges
are conditional. and that We must

with such a campaign. and I am will.

reaching the $4,000 mark a little
ahead of June 21."
Progress is being made with the
campaign in Wayne county, outside OF
Richmond. but the work is moving a
little more slowly than had been anti.
cipated. This delay is occasioned by
the widely separated districts which
must be visited. and by the lack OF
men and women to participate actively
in the canvass. There were more
places than there were leaders. and
owing to conditions elsewhere it Was
not possible to bring other field work
ers into this county at this time. The
canvass is going ahead, however. and

HE WROTE THE COX" MINUET
Haydn the Composer, Writes Music
for Butcher and Receives Beef
. as Payment.

There is no sensible reason for
the titles attached to many pieces of
music, some of them even classical
selections. Most generally they are
placed there as an attempt of some
publisher to boom" his stock and sell
his goods. Then, again, some pecu-
liar titles may have their origin in
incidents about as important as the
following:
Haydn one day received a visit
from butcher who said that himself
and his daughters were admirers of
Haydn's music, and as the young
woman was soon to be married, he
made hold to ask that the composer
write minuet for her wedding. Kind
Papa Haydn" consented and in a
few days the man Of meat obtained
his music. Not long afterward,
Hadyn was surprised to hear this
same minuet played under his win
dow. On looking out he saw a band
Of musicians forming ring around
a large OK, tastefully decorated with
flowers. Soon the butcher came up
and presented the OK to Haydn. say
ing that for such excellent music he
thought he ought to make the COM
poser a present of the best OK in his
possession. Ever after this little
composition was called the COX" min

HE'S THE ORIGINAL CROUCH
Surely Would Be Hard to Please Old
Gentleman With This Kind of
Disposition.

There Is in Washington an old
Crouch whose son was graduated
from Yale. When the young man
came home at the end of first term,
he exulted in the fact that he stood
next to the head of his class. But the
old gentleman was not satisfied.
Next to the head" he exclaimed.
what do you mean? I'd like to know
what you think I'm sending you to
college for? Next to the head! Why
aren't you at the head, where you
ought to be?"
At this the son was much crestfal-
len; but upon his return he went
about his work with such ambition
that at the end of the term he found
himself in the coveted place. When
he went home that year he felt very
proud. It would be great news for
the old man.
When the announcement was made,
the father contemplated his son for a
few minutes in silence; then, with a
shrug, he remarked:
"At the head of the class, Ell?
Well, that's a fine commentary on
Yale university!"-Lipp Maga,

er sum is fetched from the Casino
Golfers. He who boasts of breaking
the bank" at Monte Carlo might just
as well pride himself on breaking the
Bank of England because cashier
of that institution ran short of gold
in cashing his check and sent for a
further supply.
But, then. there still exist so many
delusions regarding this, the most
famous casino in the world. There are
people who believe that croupier
can be bribed to spin certain mum.
Der, that a ghostly hand is to be seen
by the fortunate lowering over GER
tain table and indicating the manner
in which the player shall stake, and
that the occupation Of particular
room in a hotel near the Casino
brings fortune with it.
Percentage of Profit Small.
While the average gambler loses
his money at Monte Carlo. there are
many who leave winners. He who is
content with reasonable percentage
on his capital and is possessed Of a
strong head and will of equal power
has very fair chance in his fight
with the wheels or the cards. The
percentage taken by the Casino is
small-very small in comparison with
the terrible cagnotte Of the baccarat
table, or the even more impossible tax
levied on him who is foolish enough
to risk his money on petits chevaux
or boule. AS a matter of fact, there
is quite an important number of reg
ular and successful players at Monte
Carlo-people who literally live by
play. They are. needless to say,
gamblers Of the most careful class.
players of systems. which reduce the
possibility of anything but small loss
to a minimum. But that they exist
is not t. be denied. There exists also
in the principality of Monaco a cer-
tain few who draw regular pensions
from the Casino-gamblers, once
rich. who have lost all and their for
tune on the board of green cloth, and
upon which the authorit'. /. have TAX
en- compassion. They are not, of
course, allowed to c::ter the rooms,
but the initiated can often point them
out to one. mooning about the place
and gazing with hungry eyes at the
forbidden sales de jeu.
