type of man we ever ought to be nomi-
mated for the vice presidency; we have
nominated a man fit at the moment to
be president of the United States"
To which Gov. Johnson, when he
arose to accept his nomination replied:
There is a new era, new fight,
a new struggle that is abroad now,
a political creed that this great man,
Colonel Roosevelt, preached even
when he was in the White House; the
great creed of all human kind, of CIV
ing to every child in the race of life
an equal start; it is the creed in the
last anlysis of humanity that is now
the creed of one of the great national
parties in the United State of America.
IF in one little particle, if in one
small regree, may tighten the bur-
den of this great man, this brave
fighter who is today doing the great
est and the bravest thing in his ca
reer, than l shall feel well repaid in
this campaign.
Il would rather go down to defeat
with Theodore Roovelet than to go
to victory with any other presidential
candidate

Chicago, Ill. With his task as

Roosevelt plunged at once into what
he expects to be the hardest cam

1.-THE law does not permit man to
leave bis wife just because she nags
him." Justice Marean decides. He
meant, of course, the law OF this state,
says the New York Mail. In Ken
lucky, Missouri and other states,
"ungoVernable temper" and 'indigni-
ties" are a cause not only for sepa-
ration, but for absolute divorce and
nagging may certainly be carried to
the point of indignity; while in Ore
gOn one may obtain a divorce IL the
partner of ones joys, and especially
of ones sorrows, makes life burden
some" And what can be more bur-
densome than nagging? However.
there ought not to be divorce, nor
even separation, for nagging, because
no court of Justice can ever be sure
that the nagging is not justified, or at
least provoked. Some women, for In
stance, are born naggers. Some
achieve nagging, and a considerable
numbers of others have nagging
thrust upon them by a course OF con-
duct which may be outwardly courte-
Gus, but which in its essence is in
supportably irritating.

SLEEPING IN CHURCH.

It is a matter Of common experience
that bright lights in a chamber, church
or hall where numerous persons are
gathered together have the effect OF
producing drowsiness among certain
members of the congregation or audi
ence, says the Philadelphia Press.
This phenomenon is easily explained
by the current knowledge Of hypno-i
tism. The drowsiness produced by
the lights Is a species Of hypnosis. II
has been suggested also that lack Of
proper ventilation causes a toxic quail
Ity in the atmosphere to which some.
people are especially susceptible, the.
result being an irresistible drowsiness..
Sleeping in church has always been a.
ready subject for humor. 1t is related.
that on one occasion when a proposal
was under discussion to have a series
OF sermons preached on topics Of the
day which were agitating the public
minds, Rufus Choate, as a member OF
the congregation, protested vehement
ly, saying, II seek my pew, as seek
my bed, for repose." There is also an
anecdote of an old Scotchman who
was asked if he knew certain man in
the same neighborhood. know him %
he replied with emphasis. why, I've
sleepit in the same kirk wi him for
forty year" But the majority Of
preachers have never been inclined to
take humorous view of the matter,
any more than Dean Swift.

Great Activity
 Around Ruby

Passengers from Fairbanks on late steamers en route to the Outside report great activity in the Ruby sec tion.
 It is said that Ruth Sherbourne has bought the remaining interests of Farnander, on Long creek and that $4O.OOO was paid for the property Farnander is the discover of Long creek and had previously sold hold ings on that stream for the sum of s6O.OOO.
 Just as the stage was leaving Fair banks another stampede had start ed down in the Ruby district
 The newest excitement was caused by a reported rich strike on American creek which is tributary of the sa' lama. Long creek is also tribu, tary of this stream but American creek is some disance from it.
 Reports reaching Fairbanks from the new strike in the Innoko at Cripple, are to the effect that Cripple and Fox creeks are looking good.
 There is a difficulty here, however over the grub shortage and the camp will have to be depopulated for the winter.

MEXICAN EPIcUREs SAY
 " cAcTI IS FINE EATING

ORANGE, Calif.-spineless cactus as a producer of table fruit is rather new phase of the cactus question, but as a matter of fact the apple of the splneless cactus is being used as a table delicacy.
 On the whittlesey ranch, three miles west of Orange, there is a patch of spineless cactus several acres Ia extent which is a present heavily loaded with large ripe fruit To this patch Mexlcans come and buy hun dreds of pounds of the apples, for the Mexican has learned that the fruit is edible. Some of the fruit is marketed at 10 cents a dozen.
 The cactus apple grown on the spineless cactus is itself almost free from spines. It Is the size and shape of a good sized pear, and when a rath- CT thick peel is removed a pleasantly favored center is revealed. It is said that taste of the fruite may be cul. tivated until one becomes fond of it.
