TIMOTHY WOODRUFF
VICTIM OF PARALYSIS
Suffers Stroke While Delivering
Speech In New York.

New York, Sept. 30. - Timothy j..
Woodruff, three times lieutenant gov
ernor of this state, suffered a stroke
of paralysis while he was delivering 4
speech at Cooper Union notifying
John Purroy Mitchell of his nomina-
ton for mayor.
Mr.. Woodruff was able to put a
concluding paragraph or two on his
speech before his friends saw that he
was on the point of collapse. While
the audience was applauding what
they supposed to be the end of his
addres, five or six men on the plat.
form ran up to Mr.. Woodruff and
helped him off the stage.
Hasty examination by physicians
showed that his left side was par
italy paralyzed. lie did not lose con-
sciousness. He went home in his
automobile with Mrs. Woodruff to
Carlton House and his family phJsi-
clans were hurriedly summoned.

Price of Progress.

woman has become emaciated We
have cut her off from air and sun.
She is seizing them back from us with
determined strength. AS! the plucky
little women! Inevitably, many
among those who are struggling today
will die in the fight, many will go as
tray. 1t is an age Of crisis The ef-
fort is of too violent a nature for soft
measures. When a plant has been for
a long time deprived Of water, there is
always the risk that the first rain
scorches it. But what of that! 1t is
the price of all progress. Those that
come after will blossom out Of these
sufferings. The poor little virgin war
riors of these days, many Of whom
will never marry, will be far more
fruitful in offspring than the child
bearing matrons, their contemporaries,
for of them will be born, at the price
of their pains, the feminine race of a
new classical age."-Romain ROLAND
In Jean Christophe."

and she also looked in at a broken
pane. AS she came out of the gate
a farmer who knew her by name and
sight came along and called out:
Didn't see the signs, did you?"
81 did, sir, and do now!" was the
Independent reply.
"Mebbe you want to be arrested as
a trespesser?"
Maybe l do!"
"Jest about three months in the
county Jail is what that gal needs!"
muttered the farmer as he drove on.
It happened that Mr.. Renfew came
down two days later to diagnose the
ailments of an old pear tree and en-
countered both of the farmers. They
were eager to tell him of both the
trespassers and advise that they be
made examples Of.
That's what is needed around this
neighborhood," urged one.
"If you don't do something they'll
be tearing the house down next" add
ed the other.
But | hate to go TO law.
Course you do, but them gals was
mighty sassy. They jest the same as
said they didn't care darn for you
and your old signs"
'T might scare one of them"
That's it-skser the life out of
her!"
'I'I take the one who took the
bushes"
AS to which one 1t was the farm
ers differed, and probably honestly.
One was sure it was that Haskell
gal' and the other was just as sure
it was that Halsey gal" 1t was thus
that 1t came about that warrant
was sworn out for Miss Grace Haskell
and was served with eminent salts
faction. Bail was given and the trial
set for days ahead.
Mr.. Renfew had graduated with
high honors as horticulturist, and
he hadn't learned thing about law,
He was to begin his lesson now. He
had hardly drawn long breath be-
fore the father of Miss Grace Haskell
began suit against him for $4,000
There were claims of false charge,
false Imprisonment, defamation Of
character and so on and SO on. The
13 different ailments Of fruit trees
were all mixed up in one big scare as
the warrant was read
What made the matter dozen
times worse was that the two farmers
were suddenly seized with loss of
memory. They might possibly have
witnessed two cases of trespass by
two Graces, two Susans or. two Pollys,
but they wouldn't want to swear to 1t.
And then, to cap the climax, Miss
Grace Halsey came upon him as he
was making a diagnosis Of a dead
plum tree and said:
'You can have your old bushes
back If you want ems They are dead
as punk"
Then 1t was you that took them
Nobody else"
But / have had Miss Haskell ar
rested!"
More fool you! She has also had
you arrested and you may bet they
will make 1t hot for you!"
II think I will call and have
talk with her." said Mr.. Renfew as
he gave the old plum tree a kick and
felt that he didn't care what disease
it died Of.
Better keep away, young man. Her
old man is just aching to get his paws
on you, and they keep a bad bulldog
and a boss hired man that once

The Symptoms Of tuberculosis.

The Symptoms Of tuberculosis.
The symptoms of tuberculosis are
different according to the stage Of
the disease. 1t is the symptoms Of
the early stages that should be
learnel for it is then that cure can
be brought about and lives saved.
What are these symptoms?
This disease usually comes on in
a very slow and mild fashion That
is what throws the persons infected
off their guard. There may be moth
ing more than tired feeling, es-
pecially after work, a lessened appe-
tite, some loss of weight and j. rhaps
an occasional cough.
As the disease grows worse, these
symptoms do likewise. The loss Of
weight may be very noticeable; there
may be fever and night sweats. With
the more frequent cough much spu-
tum may be expectorated.
In the far advanced stages some of
these symptoms, like loss Of weight,
and fever, may be very pronounced.
Then we have the picture of the
"Consumptive."

chased John L. Sullivan three miles"
"But-but-"
"Oh, don't be a squealer! You are
stung and you might as well begin to
count on the twenty-five thousand.
You ought to have known that l took
the bushes and had me arrested.
Guess you'll have to take soothing
syrup to sleep O. nights after this!"
Mr.. Renfew consulted two different
lawyers in the city. They said he was
up against 1t. He came back and
drove by the Haskell house. The
bulldog growled and showed his teeth,
and the bad hired man spat on his
hands and removed his coat.
Commit suicide? Flee the country?
Ambush the girl as she rode out and
assassinate her?
The situation might not have af-
fected a poet SO hard, but it upset
the horticulturist until If man had
come along and asked him at what
age a sour apple tree begins to grow
sugar plums he could not have told
him within ten years.
When all hope deserts one Fate
jumps in. One day when he had
worried and stewed and fretted until
he could hardly see straight, Mr. Rem
few borrowed a boat and went row
ing down the river. 1t was not a
great big river like the Amazon, but
one Just big enough to give Fate
fair show. At a certain stretch
there were high bluffs and deep wa
ter 1t was on one Of these blutfs
that Miss Grace Haskell sat fishing
as Mrf Renfew came gliding down.
They could not see each other for the
bushes lining the bank, but an old
COW ashore saw the girl and without
rhyme or reason made for her. Cows
have various emotions, and human
beings can't tell what particular one
will come uppermost at particular
time.
There were screams and shrieks.
There was a charging COW. There
was a lodging girl. Then a space of
bluff some forty feet long and TWEEN
ty feet wide gave way and went
down into the river. The girl and
the COW with it. Mr.. Renfew wasn't
fifty feet away. He did not hesitate
a moment between the price of COWS
and girls. He got the girl, but in
half-drowned condition. He got her
to the house by means Of passing
auto. He got a doctor by means OF

70 CHECK FLOODS
IN OHIO VALLEY
Federal Control Of the Water
Courses Is Urged.
ARMY ENGINEERS MAKE REPORT

Recommend Immediate Legislation to
Prevent Entertainments Upon Chan
nels In Tributaries Of NaVlgable
Rlvers-EvIls Of Divided Control Of
Waterways Pointed out-Plans Of
Ohio Towns Approved.
Washington, Oct 2. - In report
submitted y to Secretary Garrison by
ihe board Of army engineers appoint
I'd to investigate the floods which
devastated the Ohio valley last
spring, immediate legislation is rec
commended to place under federal con
troll the construction of all bridges and
their approaches and to prevent en-
croachments upon channels in tribu
taries of navigable rivers~
The report, written by Lieutenant
Colonel Francis Il. Skunk and t.ans'
mitted through Brigadier General Ros'
sell, chief of the army engineers, was
given general approval by both Secre'
tary Garrison and General Rossell.
Artificial contraction of river chan
nels and their adjacent flood plains,
which caused the disaster, the board
declared, can be prevented only by
systematic control by the central gov
ernment within interference from tho
state authorities.
The board has been much inn
pressed in its examination" said the
report, "by the evils Of divided con-
trol of the watercourses."
These rivers (Ohio tributaries) are
feeders of a navigable stream and
have an important effect upon the
regimen Of the Ohio river, and it is
the opinion of the board that the au.
thority of the United States should be
exercised to prevent encroachments
upon them, exactly as in the case OF
navigable streams. The board further
urges that immediate steps be taken
to exercise such authority, since
bridges and other structures are to
be rebuilt at once, and there is evi.
dent danger in several places that
they may be rebuilt in an obstructive
manner.
The board approved flood preven-
ton plans tentatively worked out at
Columbus, but pointed out that unless
a means of escape for water delivered
to the lower reaches were provided,
the flood would merely be transferred
from one point to another. This in
dicates," the report continues, the
necessity of adopting a plan for the
Scioto valley to which plan the spe'
cial projects for the various towns
must be accommodated Columbus,
Dayton and Hamilton have provided
for such surveys as are necessary for
their own particular purposes, but SO
far as the board knows no survey is
being made that includes all of the in
formation necessary for solving the
problem of flood control Of any stream
in the Ohio river basin"
The board reported that it was not
at present prepared to recommend
means of preventing the occurrence
of high stages in the rivers due to eX'
cessive rainfall A site for a rese?-
voir near Kenton, o., was examined,
but the engineers believe prospects
for sites in other parts of the Ohio
basin are better.

Saving Thousands of Birds.

A system of perching rods, like a
huge spiders web, is to be placed on
all lighthouses on the coast of France
to afford roosting places for the great
numbers of tired birds which would
otherwise perish nightly while migrat-
ing north or south. 1t is not that the
birds dash themselves against the
glass, but, bewildered by the glare
and already tired by their oversea
fight, they fly round and round it till
they fall exhausted and die through
sheer weakness.
The arrangement already has been
placed on the Terschelling light and
one night it was calculated that 1000
chafIinches and larks slept there, and
thus refreshed, winged on their merry
way next morning.

BLIND PENSION ACT
DECLARED VALID
Law Of 1911 Constitutional,
Says High Court.

Columbus, O., Oct. 1.-The blind
pension law of 1911, which was re-
pealed this year, mainly because it
was thought to be unconstitutional,
was declared by the supreme court to
be sound. Any claims under it may
be collected. The blind law which
was in effect prior to 1911 was knock
ed out by previous decision of the
supreme court because the pension
provided was a gratuity, and could be
obtained by any blind person, rich or
poor.
The law Of 1911 was sustained on
the ground that as the pension could
be paid only to blind persons, who
not only are poor but have no one to
lock to for support, the law merely
makes a classification of objects Of
outdoor relief.
This decision, in which the Hamil.

experiments in horticulture. There
are insects and diseases that prey
upon fruit trees, fruit vines and
bushes, and the finished horticultur-
list must be able to diagnose the same
as doctor.
Mr.. Renfew's purchase consisted OF
three acres of land and an old house.
The place had been abandoned for
years, and the fruit trees on it offered
a glorious opportunity for one OF his
profession He decided after care
less glance over them that they had
at least thirteen ailments to be dag
nosed and cured AS for the old
house it couldn't be cured. 1t was
like an old man dying Of his years.
Two miles to the west lived Farmer
Haskell, and he had daughter named
Grace. He was no farmer to break
his back at the plow or pitching hay.
He was a gentleman farmer with an
Office in the city and three hired men
loafng around the farm. He farmed
from philanthropic motives. He
knew that if he didn't farm there
would surely be a shortage of tur-
nips among the poor of the world.
Nor was Miss Grace a milkmaid
with freckled face and sunburned
nose She didn't feed the hogs, gath
er the pumpkins nor peel the pota-
toes. She wasn't philosopher, and
she wasn't farming from philosophical
motives.
Half mile to the east Of the Rem
few place lived farmer Halsey. He
was a real farmer down to the horny
palms that scraped like sand when
you shook hands with him. He was a
farmer for profit, and his one hired
man was kept on the jump, and any
turnips that went out into the wide
world had to be paid for in cash. He
also had a daughter named Grace.
If Miss Grace Halsey was of coars-
er grain than Miss Grace Haskell-f
she had generous feet, many freckles
and the stride and strength Of man
that was natures handiwork. She
was neither to be blamed nor prais-
ed. The dilapidated Renfew place
had a queer charm for her, and she
was often over housing around,
There was a story afloat that the
house was haunted, and Miss Grace
wanted to meet the ghost and give
him just one crack with her bony fist.
Neither the Haskells nor the Hal
seys had heard of the sale of the
place when Miss Grace Halsey went
over there one day and dug up two
currant bushes and carried them
home. The act reached the ears OF
Mr.. Renfew and he had signs OF mo
Trespass" posted up. They care no
more for mo Trespass" signs out in
the country than inhabitants of the
cities care for the signs to Keep on
the Grass"
With three plain signs staring her
in the face Miss Grace Halsey enter
ed the grounds and dug up rose
bush. A farmer who knew her saw
her and called out
Hey, you! Don't you know that's
trespass?"
60 on!" was the reply.
"You can be arrested"
Come off"
Mighty techy feller, that Renfew
is, so they say"
Som II"
Three days later, as Miss Grace
Haskell rode that way with pony and
cart, she saw flower that she want
ed blooming among the weeds. She
entered the grounds and picked It,
