Pretend That You Enjoy 1t.
Dear Miss Grey: We are
two girls of IL and 10 and
quite tall. We have a boy
friend in this city whom we
both like very well. He is
10 years old, but quite short
for his age.
Every time we walk up
the street with him the girls
and boys make fun of us. Do
You think it is right for them
to do this, for we like him as
a friend. We will be much
obliged If you will answer.
TWO BROWN-EYED GIRLS.
Alt is rude of your friend
to make fun; but don't you kno,
IL you would have as much flu
out of it as they it would 500,
grow old?

Elrsfly,s Scored pIsoovered.

How the firehy and the glowworm
produce their light without setting
themselves on fire was a mystery un-
I'll very recently. But Professor Ra-
phael- Dubois Of Lyon university.
France. has been studying the prob
lem. and at the congress Of the Zoo
logical society at Monaco he described
hin solution Of 1t.
According to him this phosphor-
escence is caused by two compounds,
which he calls .luciferase" and '1uci-
ferine." Neither Of these alone is ef.
fective, nor will they produce light
when combined. except when they are
in contact with water.
Professor Raphael Dubois succeeded
In isolating these two substances and
keeping them for several months In
bottles without deterioration.

THE SulZER CASE.

The impeachment and conviction OF
William Sulzer will remove a pictur.
esque figure from the politics OF New

ger was undoubtedly a victim OF Tam.

Tammany do not excuse Sulzer The
question for the high court which
tried him 20 decide was whether or
not he had violated the law. and wheth.

The court apparently finds that Sui
ger made false statement OF his cleo
ton expenses. swore falsely and at.
tempted TO induce a State Official 10
swear falsely. These ohenses are Sc
rious enough TO Justify impeachment.
Sulzer has not shown TO advantage

reformers without fear OF exposure.
II is a notice 10 all men who seek po-

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY

BY Z. J. Edwards

Il have always thought that my
father had more tender feeling for
General Charles F. Smith than for
any OF the other officers of high rank
with whom he was associated during
his entire career. between 1860 and
1866" That statement was made TO
me by the late General Frederick
Dent Grant. the eldest son OF General
u. ). Grant, just before he sailed for
the philippines TO take a military
command in what was then cur new
possessions.
My father was very warm-heart-
ed man and he was especially tena-
clous and loyal In his friendships.
There was one instructor at West
Point, i have often heard him say,
Tor whom he had. while cadet. a
genuine affection, as well as admira-
ton and respect And this instructor
was Charles r. Smith. He took spe-
clal interest. for some reason In faith
er. and used occasionally TO have
pleasant chats with him.
| have often heard my father say
that General Smith was an ideal sol
dier and that he had every qualifica.
tion necessary TO make man pre-
eminent as a general
Now. while still entertaining these
Feelings or respect. admiration and
very high personal regard for General
Sml IN. my father suddenly found that
ne had been made General Smiths
superior IN rank. That IS. I mean
That my father received his appoint.
ment as brigadier-general shortly be-
lore General Smith received his.
You remember, OF course. that one
OF the first things father did after he
became a general was TO seize Padu.
can. Kentucky! He did so because he
looked upon Paducah as a stratcric
point OF the highest importance.
Now, II so happened that General
smith was stationed at PaCacah
General Smith was, | think, about M.
