AMERICANS WIN
OLYMPIC RACES
Complete Sweep yYankee Ath.
Ietes in 100 Meters Sprint
SETS STADIUM IN AN UPR0AR
Pentathlon is Also Ours-And SIX OF
the Eight Competitors Left in the
300 Meters Run Garry the
American Colors.

Stockholm, SWeueH.-roI lhe SeS
ond time in the history OF the olympic
games the Stars and Stripes foated
from all three tiag poles on which are
hoisted the national emblems OF the
countries obtaining first, second, and
third places in final events.
The previous occasion was at Ath-
ems, when American athletes won all
the points in the standing broad
Jump. The event here in which the
Americans made clean sweep was
the final of the 100meter HAT race,
which produced astruggle worthy
alike of the gallant men competing
and of the traditions of the Attic
games.
Barely a yard separated the first
and fifth men at the finish, and none
of the 10000 present except the
judges know who had won. But a
moment later mighty shout rose
when the numbers were posted, show
ing that Ralph Craig of Detroit was
first, Meyer, the New Yorker, second,
and Lippincott of Philadelphia third.
Patching of South Africa was fourth,
and BelOte took fifth place.
By this time the American contin-
gent had got their second wind, aud
the "rahs" that followed the hosting
of the flags high above the roof OF
the stadium were something not easily
to be forgotten. There was touch OF
sadness about the rejoicing for those
who remembered that sitting in one
of the dressing rooms was an Ameri-
can youth who would have given his
life almost to have run. This was II.
P. Drew of Springfield, Mass, who
performed so finely the day before,
but in doing this unfortunately sprain-
ed his leg badly. Hoping against
hope that he might be able to start,
Drew donned his running togs and
went out to the starting post, but had
to be helped back.
Drew was warm favorite in this
event until he received his injury.
Scarcely had the cheering over the
triple victory in the hundred meter
race died away, when l.. E. Meredith,
the Pennsylvania schoolboy, started
them again by winning his heat in
the semi-finals of the 500 meters race.
The German champion, Braun, was
second, with Melvin Sheppard, the
American star, third, and Putnam, the
Cornell crack, fourth.
In the second heat Brock, the Cana
dian, obtained first place, closely fol-
lowed by Edmundson of the Pacific
Coast. Caldwell provided the sur
prise of the race, so far as Americans
We're concerned, by taking third place,
while Ira Davenport of Chicago was
fourth.
Thus out of the eight men who quail
flied for the final, six are Americans.
Besides these successes on the Gin
der path James Thorpe of the Car
Isle Indian School won the pentath-
lon, with ]. ]. Donoghue of California
third. This event is designed to
show the all-around ability of athletes,
and consists of the running broad
jump, throwing the javelin, 200 meters
run, throwing the discus, and 1900
meters run. Thorpe won first place
in all except the javelin throw, in
which he was third.

SMITH WILL RUN TO
SUCCEED OLLIE JAMES

The Cadiz Record says:
Hon. Denny p. Smith, the bril-
liant young Commonwealth Attor-
ney of this district, will be a can
didate for Congress to succeed Hon.
Ollie NJ. James. He has been
spending the week in the lower
counties of the district, and in a
message received yesterday after
noon, he stated that he had made
up his mind to enter the race. He
will make formal announcement
during the next few days. There is
no man in the First district who
would make a more able successor
to Ollie James than Denny Smith,
and it is safe to say that he will
gather around him a support that
will insure his nomination and
election before the people.

THIRD PARTY HINTS IN
ROOSEVELT'S SPEECHES

IF the people decide the way |
think they ought not to do, | will
think they are unwise, but will
have nothing to say. But if they
decide against us as the result of
the juggling of their rights by the
bosses, then l will have a good deal
to say"
The results in such primary
(the New York one) are in no shape
or way representative of the Re-
publican party and have no binding
force whatever on the Republican
party"
When he president Taft;
keeps dwelling upon his distrust of
popular action, it is natural that his
lieutenants should feel that they
have a free hand in trying to
thwart the wishes Of the people,. &.
The issue is whether the Amer
lean people are fit and able to gov.
ern themselves, or whether they are
to be governed by those macS;1e
politicians whose close alliance
with the worst forms of big bust
ness has promoted nine-tenths of
the corruption and scandal of
American public life"

(By Timus Gayle Taylor-12

When the golden sun was setting
Behind the mountains far away
A girl was on the prairie,
On a horse of iron-gray.
She was riding cross the prairie
In a gallop long and fast,
And the horse was running knee
deep,
In the long and yellow grass.
Then she drew rein in the bushes
BY little prairie stream;
She jumped down off her pony
And filled her big canteen.
Then she rode on cross the prairie,
With the blue skies high above ;
She came upon a cowboy,
And found the boy she loved.

STANLEY URGES
PARTY HARMONY
And Unity Among Ken
lucky Democrats.
MANY KIND WORDS FOR CLARK
Congressman Johnson Pleased
That He Blazed Way
for MisS0urian.
FINE PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER

Washington, April 81 Plead
ing for harmony among Kentucky
Democrats in the matter of the
Presidential choice, Congressman
A. o. Stanley, of the Second Ken
lucky District, has issued a state
ment in which he takes the posi-
ton that all things being equal,
Kentucky should stand by her own,
but that the general welfare is Of
more vital Importance than the
personnel of any candidate for the
Presidency. The statemerA Is as
follows:
Champ Clark has been trained
in the severest school Of experience
and in the discharge of the difficult
and delicate duties of floor leader
and Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives. He has deserved the
confidence of it's countrymen and
played a conspicuous part in secur-
ing the triumphant success of his
party. Oscar Underwood's career,
as chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee, clothed with
greater powers than any OF its
predecessors, having both the con-
sideration or determination of the
policy of the party and the tariff
at a time when that is most acute
in this campaign, and in addition
the naming of the personnel OF all
the other committees of the House,
has proven himself a resourceful
and tactful leader and a profound
student and statesman. To him In
no small degree is due the enthu-
siasm, the discipline and the unity
of action of the Sixty-second Con-
gress. Under his leadership Dem
ocracy presents an absolutely
solid and unbroken front. He is
solid, sane and conservative in
counsel. bold in action, brilliant in
debate.
"Kentuckians have every reason
profound scholar and brilliant or
Democrats are both native Ken
tuckians. It is possible that their
worth is in a measure due to this
most fortunate nativity.
Gov. Wilson has proven a great
executive, and no man can hear
him without realizing that he is a

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP
II Has Been Proved That Mi.
crObeS Cause Badness.

Prof. Unna, of Hamburg, Ger
many, and DR.. Sabourand, the lead
ing French dermatologist, discov-
cred that a .microbe causes bald
ness. Their theory has time and
again been amply verified through
research experiments carried on un-
der the observation of eminent
scientists. This microbe lodges in
the Sebum, which is the natural
hair oil, and when permitted to
flourish it destroys the hair folli-
Giles and in time the pores entirely
close, and the scalp gradually takes
on a shiny appearance. When this
happens there is no hope of the
growth of hair being revived.
We have a remedy which will,
we honestly believe, remove DAM
druff, exterminate the microbe, pro-
mote good circulation in the scalp
and around the hair roots, tighten
and revitalize the hair roots, and
overcome badness, so long as there
is any life left in the hair roots.
We back up this statement with
our own personal guarantee that
this remedy called Rexall "93"
Hair Tonic will be supplied free of
all cost to the user If 1t fails to do
as we state.
1t will frequently help to restore
gray and faded hair to its original
color, providing loss of color has
been caused by disease; yet 1t is in
no sense a dye. Rexall "s3" Hair
Tonic accomplishes these results by
aiding in making every hair root,
follicle, and pigment gland strong
and active, and by stimulating a
natural flow OF coloring pigment
throughout the hair cells.
We exact no obligations or prom.
ises-we simply ask you to give
Rexali "93" Hair Tonic a thorough
trial and II not satisfied, tell US and
we will refund the money you paid
as for it. Two sizes. prices so

Keeps $30,OOO,OOO in the
Julius Tower in
EVENT OF SERIOUS TROUBLE
The Vast Treasure Is Guarded
Day and Night By Many
Faithful SentinelS.
IF SPENT, MUST BE REPLACED

In the city of Spandau there
stands a zealously guarded tower
where Germany keeps her war
treasure.
In these days of political unrest
and rumors of war there is no spot
in the whole of the empire more
curiously looked upon than this.
For in the dark red, looming
tower there reposes a vast hoard of
20,000,000 marks (e6,0O0,000),
which is kept for the sole purpose
of helping Germany should she be
called upon to take a part in any
great war.
The first of the treasure was
placed in the tower in the reign of
Frederick Wilhelm |. of Prussia.
The exact sum the tower contained
is not known, but it did not amount
to very great deal.
After the -Prussian War,
when Germany became an empire,
it was decided to take &6,OOO,OO0
from the indemnity paid by the
French and lock it away forever as
war treasure.
At the same time law was pass
ed ruling that "the imperial war
treasure must only be used for
mobilization purposes, and then on
ly by consent of both the Emperor
and the Parliament"
The last provision in this law is
important, for the German consti-
tuition gives the Emperor a right to
declare a war without first consult
ing his war staff, but he cannot. on
his own initiative, make use of the
war treasure.
In the case of a colonial expedi-
tion-or one of the little wars"
which great powers are continually
fighting in some portion of the
globe-Germany, of course, would
not find it necessary to make use of
her war treasure; money for OBJ
jects such as these can always be
obtained by loans.
When the treasure is spent it
must, according to this law, be i'm
mediately replenished to the origi-
nal amount.
The money in the julius tower is
all in gold coins. and is placed in
boxes containing $4,000 each.
1t is almost impossible to mag
inc what a vast number of coins. is
contained in 100000, and when
for some reason or other the treas
ure has to be removed, It is literal
ly dug up by the spadeful.
But it would be difficult for any
one to make off with any of the
Spandau treasure. The tower is
guarded by dozens of sentries night
and day, and there are three mas
sive steel doors between the out
side of the tower and the gold.
Certain members of the Imperial
Debt Commission of Germany make
formal visits to Spandau twice a
year, solemnly overhaul the treas
ure and return to Berlin satisfied
that the treasure is still in the
same place.
Should one of the guards or
commandants. at the tower be
changed, a special visit is made by
the Commissioners. The public, of
course, are under no circumstances
allowed access to the tower
