home, by his winter freside, Benson
diagnosed his own case. His, he
knew. was moral malady. The years
had given him everything save hap
piness; and because he had not hap
piness he was sick. Life had been
worse than wasted.
Il was in the final analysis that he
reduced his case to this. He was
aware that II was not alone In his
relation to Virginia that he had
changed he knew that he had grown
hard, and none too scrupulous: that
while his outward manner remained
one of consideration and kindness
even, he had developed a secret pas
sion for accumulation. This had been

and power. not in any very wide sense
perhaps. since he was content 10 be
the great man OF his own little com.

He compared himself with what he
could recall OF his father. and knew
that he was reverting to the strongly

ENFORCING THE LAW.

A fine of S2,500 and costs for the Louis Lipp Company and jail term cf sixty days for it's Secretary Treas urer, Albert Veil. was the penalty imposed by Judge Hollister in the United States court yesterday after the company and Mr. Veil had both entered pleas of guilty to the charge of underbilling shipments sent over railroads to customers and different part of the country.
 Strenuous efforts by attorneys for the defense to get remission of the Imprisonment sentenced availed only to secure a delay of a week for Mr. Veil, in order that he may arrange his business affairs before being ta- ken to the jail at Troy, Ohio.
 The indictment against the Lipp Company was returned by the United States grand jury. It embraced twen- ty-seven counts, in each of which the company and Mir. Veil were charged with making false entries of weights on their bill of lading for their ship ments over railroads in violation ol the Interstate Comerce Laws on that

 Commissioner Clary is now prepar- ing to make a number of inyestiga- tions, such as are expected of him un- der the act creating his office, which says he must investigate the condi- 1 tions of the laborers in the different occupations One of the first of these will be the coal mines.

HARDENING

An important press dispatch an- nounces the fact that Pauline Wayne l is resting in sweet serenity on a Wis consin farm. Like her late master, William Howard Taft, Pauline seeks the shades of private life, says the Memphis Commercial Appeal The political strife of Washington was. no doubt, aggravating, and the quiet of the peaceful farm is more fitted to her declining years.
 The press dispatch fails to state who has succeeded Pauline as the official White House COW, nor does it say that the late president shed tears at the hour of parting.
 During her official career Pauline Wayne was a conspicuous figure in the diplomatic ranks of Washington She served her mission well and sup piled the portly president with an abundance of lacteal fluid. The White House table was adorned with butter made from the milk she so generous ly donated to the presidential house. hold. ,&@Ht
 No doubt she is entitled 10 the rest she is enjoying. Like President Taft himself she is, no doubt, glad to be on the retired. list. The final months of the late administration were strenu-
 
 exclusive position, Pauline no doubt felt great anxiety for the outcome.
 Fate settles all things and fate de- creed that Woodrow Wilson should be the next president. When President Taft stepped from the White House Pauline Wayne realized that it was her duty to follow him. Historic Yale was no place for so gentle a female and the eX-president decided that country life was best suited for her This is the reason Pauline Wayne is now peacefully picking clover blos- soms in Wisconsin.
 It is not every office holder who can so pleasantly slip from an exalt- cd position into the domestic quieI country life. Most men when their term of service comes to an end still have a hankering to continue on. II is difficult to abandon the limelight of publicity when one has flirted in it's rays for any length of time.
 Possibly Pauline Wayne has been suitably pensioned. She should be-, but 1t is more likely that the patient soul still has to work for her board Usually the news dispatches are more complete when giving information oi public personages, but in this instanc |. the details are somewhat meagre and the public is left in the dark as to her successor, as the official White House COW, really is
 At any rate, we congratulate Pau line Wayne that she is far from the maddening crowd.
