speaker. He was the Democratic
choice for United States Senator IN.
1895, but. lost through a combination
Of Independents and Republicans at a
time when the Democratic party
through Dissatisfaction over the free
silver coinage issue was suffering re-
verses throughout the country six
years later he was elected to succeed
to the man who had defeated him
Jeter C. Pritchard- now on the circuit
bench through appointment of Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Senator Overman's prominent place
in the United States Senate is attested,
besides through his character and at
tainments by his high committee con-
nections. He is chairman of the all
important committee on Rules, the
ranking Democrat on the Judiciary
Committee and second on the Appro-
priations committee. Only six otn Il
Democrats are his seniors in service
length, and as their party appears as
sured OF retaining control of the Sen
ate for some years beyond the next
election, oYerman's prominence is
bound to be increased.
It is a prominence, it is well to re-
mark, that carries with it, heavy
weight of responsibility and COM
slant exertion of energy and ability.
Adequately to fill the measure of duty
and expectation as such position re-
quires a combination of mental and
physical strength only the fewest OF
men possess. 80. Iii .,s.n --4.is4s&.

JOHN II EARLY MADE ESCAPE.
Haywood County Leper Said to Have
Eluded His Guards.
CEVaynesyille Courier,)

John R. Early, who formerly lived at
Canton and worked for the Champion
Fibre Company, is reported to have
escaped from quarantine in the stare
OF Washington where he was detained
as a leper. The case of Early has
been one of national interest. The
man is suffering from some skin dis
ease and the doctors who have examin-
ed him have differed as to whether it
was the dread disease of leprosy or
something else. With the doubt ex-
listing Early has been detained for a
number of years.
Some few days ago Canton man
received five dollars from Early in a
letter saying that Early had stolen it
from him while they were ia the
army together. This was the first di-
rect news received OF Early in some
time, and was followed by the dis
patch telling of his escape from tbs
quarantine station. The following is
the story carried in the daily papers:
Washington, May Officials o.
the United States public health ser
vice were exercised over the reported
escape of John R. Early the leper,
whose case has attracted public atten>
ton for several years, from the Dia-
mond Head quarantine station near
Port Townsend, Wash. ..~ia4-'i' =
Reports to Surgeon General Blue
stated that Early escaped some time
last Friday and is believed to be on
his way to this city where he once was
! confined. III
fThe escape of Early" said Surgeon
General Blue, again demonstrates the
necessity for a national leprosarium
where patients can be properly cared
for and safely guarded"

BOMB FOR TROY FARMER
Explodes, but Does Little Damage
Attempt Made to Burn Home.

Troy, N. Y, July 12.-An attempt
was made early this morning to
wreck with bomb the residence Of
Marsall Reynolds, a well-known far
mer of Deferestville, small village
on the outskirts of Troy. Shortly
after midnight Mr.. Reynolds was
startled by a heavy explosion, and,
Selling a lighted lantern, rushed out.
Making a search of the premises, ht.
found fragments OF a bomb, and gath
ering them up, came to Troy to place
the matter before Sheriff Smell.
The only damage to the house was
the SCATTERING OF the windows on the
side nearest to the explosion.
Mr.. Reynolds said that earlier in
the night he found the watchdog dead
it having been poisoned. SIEVE al
weeks ago an attempt was made to
destroy his house by fire, but the
flames were extinguished before
much damage resulted. Since then
Mr.. Reynolds, armed with a loaded
shotgun, has made tour of his
grounds several times nightly, and he
had just returned from his usual re-
connoitering trip when the explosion
occurred 1t is thought that the bomb
was lighted and thrown at the house,
but the distance was miscalculated
or it exploded prematurely.
The bomb was constructed of emp
ty cans, concrete and tar, and was
heavily charged, probably with dyna-
mite and powder.
Mr.. Reynolds was reticent in attrib
uting cause for the attempt on his
life, but admits that be has suspicious
which he has told to the authorities.

BARRoWs C.ENlEs RUMoRs
International League Head Says All
Clubs Will Finish the Season

New York July Histories that the
financial difficulties were denied yes
terday by President Edward G. Bar
row, who asserted that no club in his
organization has any idea of quitting,
will finish the season regardless of
any cloud that may arise on the base
ball horizon.
II had been rumored that Jack
Dunn, owner OF the Baltimore Inter
nationals, is ready to quit the field
on account of the decrease in patron
age in Baltimore, due to the invasion
of that city by the Federal League
1t also was rumored that the Jersey
City Club was in difficulties, and that
its franchise would be transferred to
some other city. In regard to these
uncalled for rumors, MIR. Barrows
made the following statement.
The international League is not in
trouble, but, on the contrary, every
one OF our clubs is well equipped fl
nancially, and will finish the season
no matter what happens. Our situa-
ton in Baltimore is better than it is
in several towns of the Federal
League, and Mr.. Dunn has assured
me positively that he has no thought
of quitting, but that he will go on to
the end of our campaign, and, furthe,,
that he is not in need of our financial
help. At our recent meeting in New
York, the League authorized Mr..
Dunn to dispose of his high-salaried
players. By doing this, Mr. Dunn
will necessarily weaken his team.
but at the same time ou- race will
take on more open aspect.
THE International League has a
sinking fund, from which we could
help any of our clubs that needed
financial aid but no club has asked
for help. Also the National Commits
sion has assured us that it stands
ready to lend us any financial assis-
lance that We may need, but we
never have sought to avail ourselves
of this offer, and do not expect to do
SO.
80 far as Jersey City is concerned
William 5. Devery is the chief hacker
of that club. and. like Jack Dunn. has
assured me that he is going through
the season.

BASEBALL 6uNTs

The season is in its first stages,
but the Brattleboro club of the Twin
State league has already found to go
ing hard. financially. At a meeting
Of the association Tuesday evening
the treasures report showed a
small balance in the treasury and
prospects rather discouraging. A.
the meeting some of the directors
sounded a warning against hiring
such an expensive team that the
sport would be killed. A warning of
this kind generally means that the
white flag is already hitched to the
halyards. At the same time the stu
alton reflects no discredit upon the
Brattleboro association. bush
league" baseball everywhere eventu-
ally becomes top-heavy and topples.
Salaries paid the players are invai-
ably too large. always amounting TO
more than the gate receipts and the
game thrives for a time in communi-
ties the size OF Brattleboro and Ben
nington OBy through the financial
support given it by public spirited
and sport-loving citizens. Brattle-
boro has showed the proper spirit
ever since the Twin-State league was
organized and with an improvement
in the weather may finish the season
with the other clubs. At the same
time a little hardship this season
may convince not only the Brattle-
boro fans but the baseball men in
other towns Of the league that the
pace is too fast. financially. for a
long distance race.
