CARLYLE, R.tore.

The English practice Of giving allow.
ances from the civil list to necessitous
authors Is an old one. The grant IL
usually given In aid Of literary labors
that are Of available nature. but that
are not remunerative. such as research
work. and 1t IL rarely made except In
strictly meritorious cases. 1t 10 re-
lated Of Carlyle that he once pleaded
with prime minister of his day In
favor Of some necessitous author. The
statesman demurred on the ground
that parliament might dispute the
award in that particular case. ''Sir."
said Carlyle, when you die and are
asked to account for your failure to
give this relief It is you who will be
damned and not parliament"

yesterday, and he didn't see me. So I
kept watching him. He had seat in

PAT LEE SENT TO
COUNTY POOR FARM

Pat Lee, the unfortunate individ-
ual who was arrested last week by
Deputy Sheriff Metcah for buying
whiskey for an Indian, neceived a
rather peculiar sentence. He is now
at the county poor farm, instead Of
serving time in Jail, owing to his old
age and crippled condition.
Pat is the man who some time
ago was struck by lightning while in
the employ of the Great Northern
on q bridge at Midvale. He was in
the hospital here for some time, but
WIGS left in a badly crippled condi-
ton. He Is quite an old man, and
since leaving the hospital has been
eaking out bare existence"swamp-
ing" around saloons and doing lit
tie odd jobs now and then. He was
pretty strongly addicted to the IL
quor habit, and managed to put
away as much of it as he could,
which did not help his case amy.
The Indian had been hanging
around town for a few days, and net
being able to get any whiskey, gave
Pat some money to buy a pint OF
whiskey. Pat probably did not
know that he IVES doing anything
wreEg, and tried to he as obliging
as possible to accommodate his Ind
ian friend. 1t just happened that
Judge Carr and Deputy Sheriff Met
calf were passing when Pat and the
Indian were making the transaction
for the whiskey, and consequently
the cause of Pat being n!pped by
the clutches CT the law.
Being aware of the old mans un-
fortunate condition, the authorities
thought it best to place him where
he could do some useful work there
by earning a decent living and at
the same time recuperate in health,
which he considered a great favor.

Practical River Work.

La Crosse Leader-Press: Terminals
are as essential to steamship lines as
they are to trunk lines of railroad. 1t
would be of small value to the Mil
waukee, Northwestern and Burlington
roads running from Chicago to La
Crosse to have first class routes all
the way to La Crosse but not to be
able to get ins after reaching here.
The railways need stations, yards and
facilities for handling freight. Also
the steamship companies need docks,
railway connections with them and
machinery for unloading heavy freight.
Unless they have it the six.foot chan
mel will be of no value.
The effort therefore to induce cities
along the Mississippi river to pro-
vide terminal facilities deserves every
encourag ement 1t Ia not matter

1t is held by good economic authori-
ty that the increase in the cost of
living in this country, insofar as 1t has
been brought about by Ineffective
work on the farms and by wasteful
management in our American house
holds, has not been altogether calam-
itous. The farmers are sending their
boys to agricultural colleges to learn
how to make two blades of grass grow
where one grew before. AT the same
time 1t has become recognized neces-
sity of complete education to teach
our girls the rudiments of domestic
science. cookery and home economics.
There is no better way to lessen the
cost of living than to instruct men
and women how to increase production
and how to prevent waste.

Taft or Roosevelt.

Western Catholic: We have always
contended that whatever good was ac-
complished during the presidency OF
Roosevelt was engineered and brought
to successful Issue by William How

suits. Somebody has kindly sent us

THE Truth ABOUT TAFT.

The finest specimen of irony that
has come to our attention recently APP
peared in a late issue of the New
York World under the above heading.
The World claims that it has always
admired Mr.. Roosevelt for his judicial
temperament, his exquisite sense of
Justice and his extraordinary self-con-
troll, but it declares that there are
times when his moderation of speech
becomes a vice. BY way of example
LIT cites a recent public statement in
which he said:
A vote for Mr.. Taft is vote for
the bosses; it is a vote for Lorimer,
for Penrose, for Guggenheim, for Gal
linger and for the rest
The World insists that this is a
ridiculous understatement, and thus
makes good its case:
THE undeniable fact is that vote
for Mr.. Taft Is vote for the Nc
Namaras; 1t is a vote for Richeson;
it is vote for Sidna Allen; it is a
vote for Captain Kidd, and for the
lady that chopped up Guldensuppe,
and for Beattie, and for Ned Lyons,
the bank sneak, and for sBlinky' Nor
gan, who is also dead, and for Paddy
the Pig, and for the Black Hand, and
for the murder, arson, burglary, piracy,
embezzlement, grand larceny, treason
and a bad corn crop.

GREAT WOMEN ALL sPlhsTERs.

In his sermon in the First Presby-
terrain church in Sioux City last Sun
day evening, the pastor, Rev. Wallace
Nj Hamilton, declared that old maids
do not marry. as a general thing,
from sheer choice, and knowing their
own merits they do not care to asso-
ciate with those who are not their
equals. Old maids are often too wise
to be caught by ''chaff" and prefer
single blessedness to double misery.
according to the Rev Mr.. Hamilton.
The speaker held that it is not neces-
sary that a woman should get married
in order to be useful The records of
the state, church and all benevolent
societies show that some ofsthe best OF
women have been "old maids" With
Florence Nightingale and Frances Will
lard and many of their type to bless
the world, 1t does not become us to
make any filings at them as a class.
He mentioned particularly Miriam,
the patriotic old maid whom he
characterized as "the grandest of all
old maids. the highest peak In the
mountain range of celibacy." Rev.
Hamilton went on to say of her:
Miriam. lived in Egypt, on the
banks of the Nile, and was the sister
of Moses and Aaron. She watched the
little ark of bullrushes in which her
brother was placed. Watch well, Mi
RAM, for far greater riches are hid
den in that ark than all the treasures
of Egypt! What witty little maid
she did prove herself to be as she
sought her own mother to nurse her
own son for Pharaoh's daughter.
"The next time we see her Is when
Moses, Aaron and Miriam are at the
head of the children of Israel. All
Israel under their leadership have
escaped out of the land of Egypt and
are standing on the shore of the Red
sea, singing the praises of the Lord
like the sound of many waters. Miriam
is leading the chorus and striking her
timbrel amid the Joyous vaccinations
of the multitude.

out in the United States. Heretofore
the express companies would not pick
up or deliver packages outside of a
limited business district in Des
Moines So frequent were complaints
that the board summoned the express
company representatives to appear
before 1t and as a result of the hearing
the companies agreed to try out this
plan. which was to divide the city
outside of the business section into
districts and assign one company tc
each district to deliver and pick w
