SUMMER INYADES
 NATIONS CAPITAL
HOW THE LAW MAKERS AT WASH. lNGTON KEEP COOL DURING
 THE HEATED TERM.
Lemonade Is Popular Com
 binati0ns of Official Raiment.
(By Roderick Clifford. )


 Washington, June S.-Summer has invaded the capitol at last. The heavy clothing that keeps the blood of the mighty laWmaker from the chill blasts of winter has disappeared, and the wearer of toga is now seen in fllmy fabrics, while the Panama hat has replaced the tile derby or waving sombrero with which members were wont to adorn their stately pates And in addition to their cool attire, the Congressmen have ordered the elec- tric fans turned on, and are despatch ing hurried commands to the restau- rants for cooling drinks
 There was a time when Congress sional tradition commanded the use of the old palm leaf fan as the means sof obtaining relief from the heat; but in the last two or three years there has been departure from many of the old precedents. The fact that the sessions of Congress for the last sev- eral years have been extended we'll into the summer has also had much to do with this change
 The fans generally ill use are of the ceiling variety, such as one sees in the summer hotels and palm gar dens throughout the country, and in l .sd adai lols < ,theale ssie 4anspeeasipnal fan about the sides of the legislative chambers. Despite these innovations, however, some of the older members still cling to the palm leaf.
 When the hot weather is really at it's height some strange combinations of official raiment appear. There are linens, crashes, homespuns and al- pacas in all degrees of shade and col or. Even here, however, sticklers for formality insist that the dignity of Congress demands that the members wear conventional attire. These, no matter how hot it may be, will be found at their desks with the heavy frock coat of the traditional states man. This class, is gradually dimin- ishing, however, and it is predicted that the frock coat soon will be a matter of history in Washington s summer dress.
 In fact there has developed under the regime of Vice President Sher- man, in the Senate, tendency to do away with the conventional frock ev- en during the winter. Vice President Sherman, contrary to the strict pre- ,I cedent set by Vice President Fair banks, formed the habit of presiding over the Senate in a simple business suit, warm or light, as the weather might dictate. Because of this there has been gradual departure from the strict formality of the Senate as far as raiment is concerned.
 It is the appearance of lemonade, however, that is the most infallible sign that summer has come to the capitol to stay. This beverage, let it be known, is not of the ordinary vim

tage, for, the Congressional throat, made dry and parched by oratory, must have a special brand to proper ly lubricate it and get it back into working order. This lemonade is a composition of sugar, lemons and Ap- pollinaris, and a colored attache spends many hours down in the cata- combs of the capitol, there the eyes discover the secrets of the concoction, manufacturing it. Then, it is care fully conveyed to the cloakrooms where other attaches keep close watch over it that none but members make use of it.

The editor may swoon. but he will
recover, if the teacher asks him for
something to do to help make his pa
per a success. Perhaps there is
nothing you can debut the editor
will appreciate your offer Of assist
ance. Perhaps he will hand you a
bundle of paper, a few stamped en-
velopes. and ask you to send in the
news Of your neighborhood. If he
wishes this. do it-and consider that
you have your reward in knowing
that you are fairly and wisely adver-
Using your district. Perhaps you
will be able to write brief account
of some happening, or tell some
worthwhile story. that the editor
will be glad to have. If so, be glad
to give it; but if he refuses such con-
tributions, hold him blameless. He,
not you, is the one who runs the
business and must succeed or fail &C.
cording to his ability to please the
people--and he knows what they
want and desire much better than
can you. One thing is certain--he
will not print i'll tempered comment,

give him material that is worth

first of all. give him your dollar. He
can live without your personal as
sistance, but he must have the fnan.

them well.--Southern School Jour-

Another remarkable case is of
record here and was decided not a
very great while ago.
The article in controversy was a
stack of hay. worth at that time,
about $40.
: The plaintiff in the case was the
we'll known Cadiz attorney, R A.
Burnett. After fighting its way
through the lower courts the case
was docketed for trial in the Circuit
Court, owing to one technicality af-
ter another. When the decision was
rendered an appeal was taken to the
higher court, which remanded the
case back for another trail. Then
followed another decision here, and
another appeal was taken. Again
did the Court of Appeals hand down
an order for another trial. Mr..
Burnett was his own lawyer, and
when the case was finally disposed
of he is quoted as saying That hay
has already cost me 81. 1000. and the
hay is gone"

farmers to continue their organiza-

upon all and did much good for the
organization.
The other speeches were all in
good spirit and there was no display
of intolerant sentiments nor any
thing that could be construed as a
threat against those who did not

CIRCUS FULL OF GOOD SIGHTS
Systematic Study Of Big InStitu.
ton Adds To Its AttraC-
tiYeneSS.

Ringing Brothers circus will ex-
hibit in Hopkinsville on Saturday,
Sept. z. Those who go with the in
tention of studying it systematically,
will add greatly to their entertain-
-ment. Aside from the wonderful
morning parade. the big menagerie
and the splendid performances of the
afternoon and evening. there are a
thousand sights that will reveal
themselves to those who will look for
them. And they are not hard to
find.
For instance, in the menagerie is
exhibited an elephant which was
first put on exhibition in the London
zoo when George Washington was
president of the United States.
There are twenty-five animal babies
which are especially interesting to
the children. In attendance on the
family of giraffes is a jungle trap
per who has many strange exper.
fences at his tongues end.
In the parade watch for the team
of twenty camels. This is the only
time camels were ever driven like
horses. Also watch for a team of
zebras. 1t will be the first sight of
the kind. Then notice that ele-
plants and llamas are also used like
horses to pull heavy tableaux. On
entering the big tent notice the hun
dreds of electric lights and gas jets
hanging from above. The circus
has its own lighting plants. Be sure
and listen to the band. 1t is one of
