TO A POET

TO learn poetry for recreation is doubt
less means of cultivating knowledge
Of literature; but schoolboys sometimes re-
gard the authors of poems learned as task
masters and personal enemies. This view is
amusingly expressed in letter found among
the papers of the venerable German poet
Geibel. 1t was written to him by some
schoolboys of Lubbock, and signed, Karl
Beckmann, II. Klasse."
After stating that two boys had been
logged because they could not learn Herr
Geibels Hope of Spring" the letter reads:
1--WE suppose that you did not think
of such things when you wrote the poem.
The Herr Lehrer says it is very beauti-
full poem; but there are so many beau
tiful poems, and we are obliged to learn
them. Therefore we beg and entreat you,
esteemed Herr Geibel, make no more beauti-
full poems. And to make it worse we have to
learn the biography of every poet what year
he was born in, and what year he died in.
We write to you becar:e you are the only poet
still living, and we wish you very long life.

USED TO THE CLIMATE

X1HEN William Jennings Bryan returned
w to New York after his trip through
South America, where he went to study the
economics of the country, he was asked
about every question in the reporters roper
tory concerning his view of things political,
to all of which the Colonel replied, without
answering the question.
Then they asked him about DR.. Cook;
what he thought of the spectacular manner
in which he had discovered the pole.
Well" said Mr. Bryan, everywhere |
went they said Dr. Cook had been in South
America; and then they told me that DR..
Cook was a Democrat, and asked me if |
thought he had discovered the North Pole.
l told them thought it more probable that
Democrat had discovered the North Pole
than that a Republican had
Asked what his particular reason for this
opinion was, he replied:
We'll, simply because the Democrats
have been out in the cold such long time"

pENALIzED FOR MARRYING

MUCH is heard Of the taxation Of bach
~ elors; but little is ever said of the COM
munities wherein matrimony is deemed
punishable offense. Perhaps the most ex-
traordinary ideas with reference to this sub
ject may be said to be held at Oxford Uni
versity in England. There, for instance, a
fellow of All Souls College forfeits his fellow
ship, if when studying the classics, he should
take unto himself wife. In such event he
must not only pay penalty, but must also
present his college with a memorial IN the
shape of silver cup, with the further con-
dition that on this cup shall be inscribed in
Latin, He backslid into matrimony."
There is an aristocratic club in London,
members who so far forget their loyalty to
the club as to marry are actually expelled
and ostracized. The only saving feature of
such expulsion is that, by the payment of
fine of one hundred dollars, the offending one
may retain an honorary membership; but,
so far as active membership is concerned, he
is strictly out of it for the rest of his life.
There is a similar organization in German,
the Junggesellen Club. Whenever there
comes to the officials of this club any intima-
ton that member contemplates matri-
mony, he is Immediately summoned for trial
in the club court, with the president as Judge.
The culprit is allowed to plead in extenua-
ton of his offense, and upon his skill in pre-
senting such plea depends the amount of his
fine, which ranges from one hundred to one
thousand dollars. The humorous feature of
the fine consists in the application made.
The money is devoted to a dinner, whereat
all members appear in mourning attire. At
the conclusion of the repast the president
solemnly reads the sentence of expulsion, and
the delinquentis led from the room amid the
groans and lamentations of his erstwhile
club fellows.

Ireland. The explorer was Martel, who is
also famous for his discoveries in the caverns

formed in limestone, and is remarkable for
the number and extent of its connected pas
sages, which, when plotted on a chart, re-
semble the streets of city. The length Of

CITY MEN PREFERRED AS
SHOWN BY 6542 LETTERS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. July 24-Most

KANSAS CITY, Mo, July 24.-Most
women prefer to marry city men, even
if they are poor providers.
That conclusion has been reached
by the, Rev. Father William J. Dalton,
pastor Of the Annunciation Catholic
church, after reading the letters Of
6542 persons who desire to marry and
have written to him for help.
Father Dalton attracted attention a
few months ago through school of
matrimony" he established in cOnnec-
ton with his church to encourage ma<
riages among the young people of his
parish.
1.-The only women who express a
willingness to marry farmers are eld-
erly women alone in the world" Faith
er Dalton said today. But the farm
ers who ask for wives are young men
and they do not marry such women.
"One man who wrote to me owns
three big farms; another has $50 acres
of fine farm land, and third farmer
showed me he had $4,000 in bank.
: Can you tell me why it is that a
woman will not give proposition like
that a minutes consideration, but will
choose instead some struggling bank
clerk in the city who lives from hand
to mOuth?"

SPEED OFFICER is
FINED FOR SPEEDING

LOS ANGELES, July 25.-There is
Claremont officer who has returned
to that community with his heart
softened toward certain class of of
fendeTs-maybe.
The officer is c. M. Peacock and he
arrests people for running automobiles
and motorcycles too fast through the
college town.
Yesterday Peacock came to Los An.
geles on his motorcycle to see the
sights. On Vermont avenue, during
his inspection of the town, a local mo-
torcycle cop arrested him for speed
ing at 20 miles an hour
Peacock had the laugh on himself
thereupon, because out in ClaremOnt
he arrests people who move faster
than about three miles an hour.
You are arrested" said the local
functionary.
That sounds like my echo," said
Peacock. What for?"
Cut out the what for?' and come
along to the station"
Just what I've always told them
myself" observed Peacock, jocularly
beginning an attempt to establish a
freemasOnary, but it wouldn't work
Peacock was fined $25. 1t seems
that out in Claremont he has been go
ing to seed sighting along posts tc
see that motorists and motorcyclists
were really moving, so he could ar
rest them for violating the speed law
and 29 miles an hour represented the
joy he felt in freedom from restraint
If Peacock is not a stranger to pity
he may be more lenient hereafter
but if yesterdays experience has EN-
bittered him, beware Of Claremont.

TAFT'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH
WASHINGTON, July 24.-Presider

Taft began the preparation today of
his speech accepting the nomination
for president In his study in the
White House, with all engagements
cancelled, the President surrounded
himself with data that will be used in
what Republican leaders expect will
be his most important contribution to
the campaign.
1t was said that his main argument
for the reelection would be based on
the achiev ements Of his administra-
ton and upon the tariff.
Republican leaders believe the Pres
ident will not point out the difference
between the Republican and Demo-
cratic platforms, especially with re-
spect to the tariff plank. There is lit.
tie doubt that the speech will be in
troduced in congress later and will be
used as a campaign document by the
national committee.
In his record of achievements Mr..
Taft is expected to refer to the admin
istration's legislative activities and
the trust prosecutions it has instituted
and brought to successful conclusion.
The speech will be delivered from the
rear portico of the White House Aug
