Prominet Men Lay Success on Hickory Switch

" ICE-PRESIDENT MARSHALL at V discussion on corporal punishment claimed the leadership of the nick ory switch league with a percentage well over 300 Admiral George Dew ey, hero of Manila bay, occupies the cellar position with percentage of 0O0043.
 The vice-president attributes much of his success in the world to early rpankings.

 Secretary Daniels got his worst licking for celebrating too highly the birth of his country. Back in 1876, on the Fourth of July, he was assign ed to hoe in the garden of the old homestead down in North Carolina. That WAS too much for his patriotic

How "UncIe Jere" Rushed Into Fray; Is Not Sorry

of the nation by his occasional at tacks on fellow members in congress. He was in action in the house of representatives few days ago. He lit out, as the saying is, for the Pro- gressive members of that body MT. Murdock, who was discussing amiably upon the subject of government by caucus. Uncle Jere took issue with the gentleman and denied that the caucus system was the fault of the legislative system at Washington, that the real fault was absenteeism, and as MT. Murdoek is Chautauqua fa- vorite, the blow landed in a vulner- able place. In a second there was an uproar. After sparring for while with indignant congressman, charg- ing a Kentucky member with being rarely seen in his seat, Uncle Jere slung this out and the storm abated: Well, they ought to resign and go home if they don't want to stay here on the job.''
 Uncle Jere is the sure Bernard Shaw of American politics. It is sus pected that Uncle Jere plunges in where angels fear to tread. just to satisfy himself that the angels lack pip. But he is never sorry.

Last Scottish stace Coach.

Edinburgh.-The last stage coach, SO far at least as Scotland is con. cerned, has just made it's last run. The daily journey between Campell- town and Tarbert will now be made by motor. For over 40 years the coach has carried the mails and pas sengers over this wild part of Argyll shire. The driver has many stories of adventure to tell, but only once did he fail to complete his double journey On that occasion the coach was showed up in returning.

Only William.

At a singing contest at Frankfort re- gently Kaiser Wilhelm, who attended, was served by several high school boys as pages. According to Jugend, he was attracted by the bright face of one of them and asked his name.
 Former, your majesty" said the boy.
 And your first name is Theodore?" said the emperor, thinking of the pa triot-poet Theodore Korner, whose cen. tennial year this is.
 I'm sorry" replied the uncourtier- like youngster, but it's only Will. liam.
 When Kaiser William broke into a hearty laugh at the answer the page realized his missed opportunity.-Ne York Evening Post.

WASHINGTON. - President Wilson " finds his greatest relaxation and rest from work in going to the thea ter. Like President Taft, MT.

MOUNTAIN IF FUJI
Description of Visit to Holy
 Mount of Japan.
"Whitc Ghost of Fuji" Half Yelled n Mist an Interesting Sight on Jap Coast-Story of Ascent and
 Features of Trip.

Tokyo, Japan.-I and my Buddhist priest brother were settled in the train with our minds happily dwelling on the wisdom of nature which grows green foliage in summer, and our hearts leapt up when we first beheld Fuji mountain, or, more true to say, the white ghost of Fuji, as certain poetess wrote. She is, indeed, a ghost half-yeiled in dream-mist, al or right, then from behind or before, during the run of 70 or 80 miles along the Pacific coast, where she mirrors her own beautiful face patiently and breathlessly all the day on the waves of jade. Why were our minds so much taken with Fuji mountain? Be- cause we were this day, July 20, on the very way to climb the holy noun tain of Japan.
 As our serpent-like train crossed the desolate Banryu river and we en- tered the mountains and valleys of the Hakone range, our immediate thought was that we had happened by accident or dream within the do- main of some Scottish mountain elf We left the train at Gotemba to take a horse car toward Subashiri, one of the three places Git is generally called the Eastern Gate, and is the easiest route) where the holy climb may properly begin. We left the place on horseback, accompanied by noun tain-guide, or goriki, who carried on his back plenty of food and water and some blankets and clothing. We wore large bamboo mushroom hats, on which the words, "We two shad- owy pilgrims of the holy highway" were written; and our shoulders bore, according to the fashion, wide straw rain-coats. We sang a song that was not of a city's rise or fall, but of a wind or flower, for we were glad that our ascent of Fuji mountain had start ed well. But where was the moun- tain? We were, indeed, hardly yet on the real Fuji; but the way in front and behind us was darkened by the heavy fog, except for few Jeti OS we we're encouraged Dy Lnc guide, who assured us of the fair sun light on Fuji mountain, on whose top our footsteps would be printed on the morrow.
 The mists did not disappear even when we reached Umagayeshi, or "The Place to Bid Your Horse Adieu." We did not part from our horses, but rode slowly up underneath the large forest of pine trees, dewy and dark, and we left the horses at Ichi no Miya, or "The First Temple" where we were told that we must now walk. On the steep pathway we felt at once that we were holy pilgrims with the song of prayer for "Rokkon Shojo" (the six vital parts, the eyes, nose, ears, tongue, body and heart On the way we met with two pilgrims who were descending One of them told us that the mountain-hut at the second station (the whole mountain is divided into ten stations, each with a stone hut, or Muro, where one can sleep) was not yet opened, as the season was little early; and we

President Seeks His Relaxation at the Theater

Van Buren walked and rode and play ed checkers for recreation. Andrew Jackson loved to smoke his old corn cob pipe and was patron of the cock pit and owned lots of birds.
 John Adams, who came into the White House before it was quite fin ished or ready for occupancy, was se- rious to moroseness, and was all but a reciuse President William Henry Harrison had the habit of going to the market for the vegetables and meats of the White House table, and upon one of these occasions, on a rainy morning when the market was chill and damp, he took the cold which resulted in his death.
 President Hayes rode little, walk ed less, aud read the greater part of his leisure time. Jefferson's costly French and Italian wines and Ma deiras were one of the features of his administration and President Mad ison thought that champagne was the most delightful of all wines when taken in moderation, but that more than few glasses produced a head ache the next morning. Consequent ly President Madison served cham pagne only at his dinners given Sat urday night, when the margin of an idle Sunday might allow for the he" d. ache the next morning.
