HON. HENRY HUNSICkER
is Candidate for Reelection TO the
Legislature.

Among the useful and practical
men in the several sessions of the
Legislature may be mentioned Hon
Henry Hunsicker, who is a candi-
date for reelection. He is the orig
lnator of several laws, one of which
applies to concubinage. He is man
OF sterling worth, and is we'll posted
in all the things which are of ma
terial worth to the people. His ex-
perlence, acquired during his sew
.erai terms as legislator, gives him
some advantage which is all inn
-portant when measures which may
affect his constituency are being
considered. He has been faithful to
his trust, is a good citizen. is a man
OF worth and integrity and is pos
sessed of all the qualities befitting a
representative of the people. AS a
Democrat tried and true he solicits
the good will of his friends and of
the people. His return to the Leg
lslature will be not only compli-
ment to him personally, but recog-
milton of his worth and of his ef-
forts for the good of all the people.

AN ATHLETIC GIRL
IN WRESTLING MATCH PUTS
STRAPPING FELLOWS
SHOULDERS TO MAT.
Engaged in Mid-0cean Diversion
Bout with Heavyweight Was
Draws from Cincinnati.

New York, July 10.--Mlss Bertha
kapp, an athletic American girl of
German parentage and teacher of
calisthenics in Cincinnati, was the
chlef figure in a unique Fourth of
July celebration on board the steam
ship Adriatic just in from South
ampton.
The young woman is about 5
feet 3 inches tall and weighs about
LOO pounds. Her speciality is
wrestling, and she challenged any
man aboard the ship to bouts of
five minutes each, catch as-catch-
can.
Two second-cabin passengers. one
an American bicycle rider, Arthur
Libby, who weighs 40, and George
Lahrmann, German. who weighs
1S5, accepted the challenge. The
bouts took place on part of the deck
dividing the first from the second
cabins and all passengers exeept
those in the Storage crowded
around the gladiators.
Miss Rapp wore sweater and
short skirt and the men were strip
ped to undershirts. Libby held out
against the young woman in the
first bout, but she put his shoulders
to the mat in the third minute of
the second bout.
Then she took on the stout Ger
man. He proved a tough PROPOSE
ton. They wrestled twenty min
utes with intervals of rest between
the five-minute bouts. The German
had some science and much muscle,
which, combined with his weight.
resisted the gallant efforts of the
young woman to put him down.
He also could do nothing with
her; in fact, his chief object seemed
to be to prevent himself from being
thrown. The referee called the con-
test draw at the end of the fourth
bout, when neither wrestler seemed
fit to continue.

CHARGES AGAINST GOMEZ
Eastern Lines Made Changes in St.
Louis Relating to Manufac-

Havana, July Ii Widespread
comment has been caused here by
the allegations made against Presi-
dent Gomez, which in substance
charge that his administration has
been connected with grating opera
tions. Rumors of discomfort in the
provinces during the last few days
are growing into real revolutionary
talk. The unrest is believed to be
caused by the publication in the
Havana newspapers two weeks ago

Gomez and the wide discussion
thereof by the local press, II was
announced then that the president
had purchased lots at the corner of
Prado and Colon streets for $685.

articles pointed out that Senior Co
me2 took the presidency with no as
sets except $4,000 debts, and as his
salary for his two years of incum-
bency is only $4,000 a year the
anti-administration papers COM
mented sarcastically on the eco
nomical abilities of the president.
This seems to have aroused the agi-
tators in the outlying provinces.

day will mark the beginning of the
end OF bad roads in this nation. The
American nation would be power
less to picture through the vista OF
the coming years the increased
health and happiness, the increased
wealth and advance which would
come to this republic upon the inau-
guration of this great national pol
icy"
Mr.. Swanson pointed out that
Americans have become the greatest
manufacturing people in the world,
that their mines furnish the world
more than Qne-half of its mineral
products and wealth, their plains
and prairies are the granaries OF
the world. Cotton" he said. con
tinucs the king of plants. and the
worlds comfort and clothing are de-
pendent upon the white fields of
the South"
Based on estimates of what he
termed good authorities, improve
ment Of main lines Of the system of
roads in this country along methods
adopted abroad would save in haling
more than $250,000,00O annually to
the people of the United States. This
IS what Senator Swanson calls the
mud tax" paid each year by Ameri-
cans for hauling their products over
poor roads.
Senator Swanson eontended that
the people of the United States
should be treated by the Govern
ment as generously and considerable
ly in the matter of road improve
ment as are the people in the
American colonies, for whose roads
the Washington Government has
appropriated generously He said
that In his bill he had endeavored
to so safeguard the Federal Govern
ment that it would spend no money
and incur no expense except after II
had received full value in improved
roads.

pie $3.50, 100000 annually, while
bad roads impose just that much
mud tax" every year upon the PEG
pie who haul their products to mar
ket over poor country highways
was the assertion made by Senator
Claude A. Swanson, of Virginia, In q
strong speech in the Senate on his
bill for Federal road appropriations
The Swanson bill provides that tho
Government appropriates 100000
900 annually for the next five years
for improveing the post roads and
rural free delivery routes used by
the Government BY limiting tho
appropriation to post roads and ru-
rel free delivery routes it removes
all constitutional objections that
might possibly be urged, The States
are to furnish as much as the Gov

This was Senator Swanson s
maiden speech in the Senate
There is no more vital question
before the American people today,
declared Senator Swanson
The poor condition of American
roads generally is having a bad er-
feet upon the American people, he
said pointing out that poor roads
make it improbable to market
much of the products of the farm
and are arresting production in
places where cost Of transportation
exceeds the selling price.
Mr.. Swanson explained that his
plan would open more than 1900
GOO miles of roads to Government
aid, that the States or local authori-
ties would furnish an amount equal
to that appropriated by the Federal
Government and that the total
would be divided among the States,
according to population He said
that the limitation to postal roads
and rules eliminated any constitu-
tional objections. The bill would
create a Road Department. consist

cials to carry out the project. The

Crooks VS.. Jewellers.

That crooks are honest men as
compared to many local merchants
is the novel complaint made here by
two self-confesed thieves this week
who have been looting many retail
jewelry stores by what is known in
the slang of the underworld as the
"penny-weight game" The method
of operation is simple, necessitating
merely the services of two men and
a watch. Having selected a store
to be robbed thefirst man enters and
asks to look at diamond rings. While
thus engaged his partner enters ap-
parently in great hurry, shoves a
watch under the jewelers. nose and
asks to have it repaired, giving his
partner an opportunity to substi-
tute imitation gems for real ones
and to depart with his booty. The
grievance of these thieves has just
been voiced In an ingenious letter
written to a local jewelers. trade
paper In which they accuse the re-
tail jewelers. of being IAN enter
