A TYPEWRITER STORY

Once upon time. almost forty
years ago, the first successful writ
ing machine was constructed. The
machine was very crude in appear
ance and yet wrote quite satisfac-
torily, considering the demands of
the time. One OF these machines Is
now at Sc North Broad street, Allan
ia, Ca, in the office of the Reming-
ton Typewriter Company. This first
machine was constructed in a little
corner room of the great Remington
Gun Works, in lion, N. Y. 1t was
the first of the famous models of the
writing machine which bear the
name PENNINGTON" There is a
vast difference between this first
model Remington and the later New
Touch. visible model Remington No.
10.
The history of the Remington Is
the history Of the writing machine.
1t has been said that the Remington
Typewriter Is not best because 1t is
first. but first because it is best.
Remington branch Offices are every
where.

held responsible for the defects. She
blamed the army, and insisted that 1t
should be reorganized.
The crown prince became very unpop-
ular since the disaster of Turno.
and as this undeservedIy was extended
also to include his wife, the Kaiser's
sister got furious. and expressed her
opinion Of her husband by sarcasticaIly
congratulating him when the King. his
father. was compelled to deprive him of
the supreme command of the Greek army.
Later he was again taken into favor
and appointed inspector general OF the
forces.
This was last May. when the Kaiser
was at the Achilleion, in Korfu. On the
very day when the first army inspection
was to take place Crown Princess Sophia
left Athens for Eorfu. and when her
brother started for home she went with
him and has not since returned TO
Greece.

The announcement OF the death at

induced by the loving care of her chill
dren, stirs the memory and revives the
rccollectiOns of political days in good
old Connecticut when party leadership
in both political organizations reached

Logan herself was characteristic
daughter Of Connecticut. devoted to the
pleasant cares of housewifeTy and in
terested in the political prominence Of
her husband. a loving mother and an
uplifting force in her beautiful home
town.
Many must have been the hours dur
ing the closing years OF her useful life
when her mind dwelt fondly and vivid
ly upon the stirring days in which her
husband was active as a leader in the
political affairs of LitChf@ld County
He and she knew well the strong men
in both parties who battled for the
supremacy Of their convictions. His
own elevation TO the offiCe of Secretary
Of State gave him. and through him
gave her. an acquaintance with the
men OF their day. 1t is more than a
generation ago that they threw them
selves into the thick Of the battle and
gave sturdy blows and received them
in return uncomplainingly Not one Of
them fives to-day except in the
memory OF younger men. many Of
them no longer active in the tur-
moi OF politics. themselves dwcllers
in the shadowy lanes of life. There
were the Burrs, the EatOns. the Ham

the Sperrys of Hartford town. the In
gersolls. the TrowbridEes. the Osborns,
the Robevtsons. the Earles. the Eng
fishes. the Sperrys and HarrisOns Of
New Haven town. There were men Of
like stature 20 he found in the other
towns of the state. and together they
made Connecticut a State to be proud
Of. a State whose counsel was sought
in the national gatherings of the two
great parties.
Mrs Logan knew many Of these men
in her hospitabl home and her hospi-
table home was known to many of the
children Of these really true men. 4
thousand sweet memories come flying
back to-day with the announcement of
the breaking OF the last link that
bound these recollections together.
With them comes the wish that the
men prominent in the political life of
the State of Connecticut to-day were
moved by the same high spirit OF un-
sel7shness, by the same devotion to a
cause. Had they been all these years
not only in this State but in the ma
tion, what are now called problems 20

never have been problems at all. There
would have been no reason for their
existence and they would not have ex-

Twas Only Hot Air.

From the Editor and Publisher.
When Fred S. Bullene went to Wash
ington TO take charge OF the Washington
Bureau of the Kansas City Star and the
Kansas City Times. he took a trip over
the city in a sightseeing car TO get his
bearings quickly. He listened to the
stories told by the lecturer attentively.
This particular "rubber-neck'' car man
was grizzled and glib of tongue. As the
car passed Ford's Theater. he declared
with some eloquence and a manifesto
ton of pride that he was now the only
living man who witnessed the actual
shooting of President Lincoln by Booth.

programme boys in that theater at the
time. ladies and gentlemen" said the

Bullene thought here was a real story.
He had heard nothing OF this living wit
ness to the assassination of the great
President. After the ride the news
paper man took the old guide to one
side. told him who he was, and asked
for some "reminiscences. The man al
most collapsed.
No, no." he cried. Il didn't know
there were any newspaper men on the
wagon. Hot air, that's all: hot air for
the tourists. Good-by."

CIGARETTES
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author of "At Good Old sfwash.'

A cigarette is a small paper cylinder
which is used by some people as sub
stitute for tobacco and by others as a
substitute for brains.
The cigarette is poisonous in the ex-
treme, and a million OF them will kill a
strong man II he lives long enough TO
smoke them II has as few friends In
this country as the Tattlesnake. and Is
much more violently denounced. Very
few boys have been bitten by rattle
snakes. but millions Of boys have smoked
cigarettes behind the barn just once and
have been unable TO walk with comfort
for week afterward.
Cigarettes are very cheap, and II
man will roll them himself he can smoke
100 at a cost Of 5 cents for material and
$50 in time. Spain has stood still for
hundreds Of years because its people
have not learned how TO work and roll
cigarettes at the same time.
Rolling cigarettes is a difficult art. and
many Of our college students labor years
to perfect IL. When a college boy comes
home able to roll a cigarette with one
hand you can see about all that he has
picked up in college on the ends OF his
fingers.
When a young man smokes cigarettes
to excess he becomes so permeated with
poison that microbes cannot live in MIN
and he has TO Iinger along for years with
a kiln-dried brain that rattles IN his head

The Junior Bull Moose.

The Roosevelt convention, so far as
harmony of temperament is concerned,
could not have chosen man more fit
to be the running mate of the third
termer than fighting" Hiram Johnson
Governor of California, whose actions
at the Republican National Convention
have stamped him radical of the radi-
Gals. In recent magazine review the
man was characterized thus:
"A Progressive in hurry. Nobody
can hear Gov. Johnson speak for five
minutes without getting fighting mad,
either at him or with him at somebody
else. He can set a mixed audience by
the ears as quickly as any man living.
He is intense himself and he arouses
intense feelings in Others
Gov. Johnson may be said to be a
political revivalist, but he is man of
undoubted courage. His father is a
very astute lawyer who has served for
years in the California Legislature. To
fully comprehend the sudden advent Of
Johnson into the Rooseveltian school
of bright" men, into the company of
Perkins, Herbert Knox Smith. Henev.
and others OF the kind, conditions in
California also must be understood. The
Southern Pacific has been to that State
what other large roads have been to
other States-their boss
Il
ton, with very rich men ready and will
ing to do things" there probably is
no other State in the Union that has
suffered more from railroad domination.
This began before Johnson was born,
and it was not until his early manhood
that the people began to revolt against
the Ruef-Herrin railroad machine"
When Johnson began his career as
lawyer, the revolt against the Southern
Pacific bossship had taken shape and
was pushed forward energetically.
Six years ago, when Heney. the ''in-
sinuating," was shot while engaged in
prosecuting the San Francisco graft
trials. Johnson took his place. Now. the
Californians love a fighter" Western
ers all talk large" especially on the
stump. and he is no exception. But
he also has his enemies, quite bunch"
of them. in his own State, and he has
awaiting him on his present return home
quite little fight of his own"
Progressives were stirring out in Cal
ifornia long before they ever heard of
such a man as Johnson. He simply rode
into the Sacramento capital on the wave
of protest against the Southern Pacific
Statewide movement not confined to
Johnson's campaign activity, but which
was the slogan of both parties.
Here is another, and leading. SINH

ming mate, besides the one that both are
desperate fighters. Progressives in the
Republican and Democratic parties had

call.
