suburbs, for all of which discovery
we are told that the banker was sur
prised and annoyed. The Floren-
tines can scarcely believe that any
one who, but few months ago, was
at deaths door could be in Mr..
Morse's apparent condition at pres
ent.
But, TO be fair to the pardoned
man, there is yet chance for him
to die per schedule. Or he may even
die ahead of time. Shipwrecks and
automobile accidents and railroad
smash-ups confront the traveller ev-
erywhere. And in the absence of
any of any of these there is just
spark of a cha nee that Morse may
live for many moons to enjoy the
remains of his ill-gotten fortune,
which appears to have done much for
his comfort in the past.

O7S ON SUN FORETELL ITS DOOM

star mean? What may it mean to
the earth and it's inhabitants? These
questions can best be answered by
considering other variable stars.
Let us take an extreme example.
| There is in the constellation of the
| Whale a famous variable star known
as Mira the Wonderful. In a preiod
| of about ten months on the average
| it changes from the third-some-
| times the second-magnitude to
about the ninth and then back again.
That means, in the extreme, a
| probable difference of between two
and three hundred times in the
amount of light and heat which it
radiates around it at maximum and
at minimum.
When it is faintest it cannot be
seen with the naked eye; when it is
| brightest it is conspicuous object.
AS it fades it turns reddish in color,
and when it brightens it blazes with
brilliant spectroscopic lines.
1t is probably a sun at least as
great as our sun, and it has recent
ly been found that it's spectrum re-
sembles in some striking peculiari-
ties the spectra of sun spots.
Did it ever have any worlds to
light and nourish? If so, think of
the condition of those worlds now.
A sun is like a living organism
it wears out. AS it ages it besomes
more and more variable. 1t main
tains itself and it's planets while its
radiant power lasts, but it cannot do
so forever. 1t contracts, f1ickers,
struggles, fades and goes out. It's
lifetime is millions of years, but it
has an end.
Let us account as mere moth
ing" cried Bossuet, everything that
ends, for, though we should multiply
years beyond the reach of numbers,
yet all would be nothing when the
fatal term is reached"

BANKER MORSE SIGHTSEEING
EX-CONVICT, SEEMINGLY WELL,
VISITING ART GALLERIES.
The Invalid" Whom the "YelIows'
and Doctors Got PardOned Has
No Notion of Dying.

In granting pardon to Charles w.
Morse, the banker and ice king of
New York who served two years of a
15-year sentence in the United States
penitentiary at Atlanta, Ca, for vio-
lating the national banking laws,
President Taft was Influenced by
public sentiment, which had been
lashed into a fury by the yellow
newspapers, and a recommendation
of Surgeon General Torney, u S. A,
which, among other things, contained
the following assertions:
''In my opinion the prisoners du-
ration of life will in all probability
be less than one month if kept in
confinement, and in the event of his
release under communication of sem
tence it is not probable that he will
live as long as six months" This
report was made a day or two pre-
vious to Morse's release, January g.
Thus it was but natural to suppose
that Mr.. Morse would remain a very
sick man and would shuttle off this
good sphere along about the middle
of next July at the very latest.
Judging from the reports which
come from Italy, where the ex-con-
Wet is said to be seeking recovery of
his health, it would seem that the
gentleman has been rather successful
in his quest, and Furthermore that he
is not playing his part in anything
like the manner predicted by the
army surgeon, which assuredly must
be embarrassing to the latter

lean press located Mr.. Morse at Flor

ing in the galleries and museums

A GREAT NEGRO CITY.
KanO, an Old and Important Com
mercial Center in Africa.

Some of the towns in Central At
RIGA are places of considerable i'm
portance. Kano, the capital of a
province of the same name, has a
population of about 100000, all of
them negroes and many of them
slaves. The city is surrounded by a
clay wall 80 feet high, and has cir
conference of more than 15 miles.
Kano is an important market town
and manufacturing center. Its cot
ton goods are renowned and it has
many other industries beside the pro-
duction of fancy cotton fabrics. At
one time the city carried on an ex-
tensive slave trade and 5000 ne
groes were exported yearly.
Kano was founded 500 years ago
and has records dating back at least
to the 18th century. The ruling class
arc the Foolahs, who compose the
Houssa country, of which Kano is
the entrepot. The people are chiefly
Mohammedans and were converted
to the faith in the 18th century.

THE LADY AND THE APPLE.
With Interest Pays Grocer for One
She Took Twenty Years Ago.

One would hardly look to Devils
Lake, S. D., to ind a conscience of
exceptional constituencies; and yet it
seems that there is in that town a
lady who has been worried for TWEEN
ty years because she stole an apple
from a grocery store. The other day
she sent to the store what she con-
sidered to be the price of the apple
with interest for twenty years. When
she was school girl, he says in
letter, the apple tempted her, and,
being a daughter of Eve, she bit it.
81 was converted not long ago" she
writes to the proprietor of the store,
"and since that time 1 have had no
peace of mind" How many people
would be able to sleep well % nights
if they had only a little apple on
their consciences!

CAMPAIGN CIGARS CORRUPT.
If Law Were Enforced There Would
Be No Treats for Ohio Voters.

Be No Treats for Ohio Voters.
The distributing of campaign CT
gars or the purchase of drinks for
voters by candidate for office is a
violation of the corrupt practices act
and subjects the donor or purchaser
to the penalties provided by law in
Ohio, according to a ruling by At
torney General Hogan.
1t is argued, however. that per-
sons who have been in the habit of
treating their friends should not be
prevented from doing so when a can
didate. 1t is not the purpose of the
act that man must change his per-
sonal habits. He should, however,
distinguish between electioneering
and the purchasing of drinks for his
friends. AS to just where the line
should or could be drawn the able
attorney-general failed to give any
enlightenment.

Paying his compliments to both

some time on the committee of the

cluded by saying that there was one
man in the legislature that knew

SAYS MISSISSIPPI

Whitehead Finds Strong Sentiment Also in Two
 Virginias and $. C.

That Oscar w. Underwood would in- questionably receive the Mississippi dele gation, that all the leading papers of that state were avowed opponents of Mir. Un- derwood, and that in Virginia and West Virginia, as we'll as the Carolinas. he was exceedingly strong, were the statements of l.. F. Whitehead, a prominent citizen of Birmingham, who returned yesterday from trip into those states.
 He said that the Underwood sentiment had swept down into Mississippi with re- markable strength and that little doubt was expressed among the leading men of that section but that Congressman un- derwood would get the delegation. Tn Virginia MT Whitehead said he spoke with many leading legislators, all of whom, without exception. said Underwood was the strongest man and would come very near getting the Virginia delegation.
 U. C. Griggs of Old Point Comfort, Va" said MT. Whitehead, 'is one of the leading members Of the Virginia bar. He told me few days ago that Mir Un- derwood was the best possible man for the nomination and that with any other man the demOcratlc nOnliHdtlon Wouiu only end in the utter defeat of the party.
 Tn the states of Mississippi Virginia and West Virginia the opinion seems to be that if the republicans put up Roose- welt Mr Underwood would have an easy man to beat. If the republicans put up President Taft he said victory would not be so much assured but that only adds to the general opinion that democracy s strongest man should be put forth.

Underwood.
 In Mississippi the entire state seen1s to be wild about Underwood. They have not taken much interest in Wilson, Har- mon or any of the other aspirants, but they are for Underwood strong. That is evidenced by the fact that all of the leading papers have declared for the we'll known Aabamian."

II. r.. BROOKE State Examiner of Public Accounts, Who Appeared Before the Fed Grand Jury Yesterday
II. Y. BROOKE

sssssssssssssssssssssssssss -H with the alleged peonage in this ty, which has been charged to tn
 noxious fee system MT Brooke ha l amined many officers and 1t is shf | he has a lot of data in connection A the system as 1t operates in this 4t ty and state
 The fact that MT. Boolke appeared just before the witnesses from Lewis burg who are to appear Monday. cre- ated quite little discussion in red- eral circles yesterday.
 It is generally believed that officials of the department of justice have de- termined to lay before the federal grand jury every scrap of information pos sible in reference to the alleged crea- ton of peonage by operations of the fee system. Although some officials be- lieve that the system does not in it's entirelty create a condition of peon- age 1t is nevertheless the resolution of the officials to allow the grand jury to look over the situation.
 The information upon which the grand jury is to proceed was secured. 1t is said. by J. Reese Murray. special agent for the department of justice. who was here for several days looK- ing into the situation.
 The examination of Examiner Brooke yesterday may be followed by the eX- animation of other officials possessed of information upon the proposition.
