AN OLD BACHELOR HAS LIVED

Lincoln Was Killed.

WESTERVILLE, Neb.-ThOmas
Morris, who has lived in three centu-
ries and seen a great nation rise from
wilderness, is believed by his close
friends to be the Oldest white man in
the United States. At least he is the
oldest man in Nebraska, and in fact
is the only man in the state who was
born in the eighteenth century, saw
all of the nineteenth and has good
start in the twentieth.
Morris was two years old when
Washington delivered his farewell
address and retired from public life,
so he can say truthfully that he liv-
ed during the administration Of ev-
cry president of the United States.
He was II years old when Admiral
Nelson won his victory at Trafalgar.
He lived during the periods of the
Napoleonic wars, attaining his ma
jority six months before the battle

when Ireland and England were unit
ed, and has lived during the reigns
of King George III, George Nv, Will

George V. He was past three score
and ten when Abraham Lincoln was
assassinated. Thomas Norris was
born January IS, 1894, at Bellew,
Montgomeryshire, Wales. His faith
err was a common laborer. AS a lad
Thomas was apprenticed to a shoe

And occasionally nerves which had

influence of such tales as these gave
way at the sight of lurking natives,
guns in hand, watching from the
palms and pandanus rondure of a
crescent of snowy beach, and the call
of science or the lure of exploration
was not enough to make a man risk

HAVE YOU ANY BRAINS 10 SPARE?
A French Specialist Is Touring the
Country and Seeking the Secret
Which Makes Great Men.

ATLANTA-Have you any brains
to spare? What do you think they
are worth?
Not your time-your brains. You
won't have to deliver it until after
you are dead, and then you'll have
no further use for it.
DIR. Auguste de CaStellane Sey-
more, a famous French specialist, is
touring the country and expects to
reach Atlanta soon. He is seeking
the secret which makes great men.
I'm buying up brains" he told
a reporter. Science must have ma
terial with which to work out the
great problem of brain force. pay
we'll for brains of extraordinary peo~
pie.
when I hear of a man who is
doing remarkable things I go to him
and say: When you die give science
your brain. Will your brain now to
me and I will pay you for it. In
time the brain will reach the Uni
versity of Piloters, the scientists will
assay it, they will test the gray mat
ter, and by such tests we hope to
tell why one man is a ninny and an
other a genius?"
DR.. Seymore already has closed
contracts for several extraordinary
American brains. 1t is nothing new
for medical colleges and specialists
to buy bodies for dissection, and
some strange tales might be told by
the janitors of Atlanta's medical
schools if they would speak. But
specialist in brains is new.

MONKS ARE sNOWBOUND.
AvaIanches Have Cut OFF Access to
HOspice of St Bernard.

HOspice of st. Bernard.
A solid wall of snow, nearly 10
feet high, surrounds the no5pico OF
the Grand st. Bernard, in which the
monks and a few visitors are kept
prisoners, says the Geneva cores
pendent to the London Chronicle.
During March the number of ava
Ianches and the heavy snowfall ex-
ceeded anything experienced in the
pass for so years. Telegraph and
telephone wires are lying with the
valleys on both the Swiss and Italian
sides.
A short time ago an avalanche en-
tered the hospice itself through some
of the upper windows, bat nobody
was seriously injured. The St.
Bernard dogs are doing extra sentry
duty, and are patroling each side OF
the pass dag and night for lost trav-
elers.
1t will be several weeks before the
few visitors who are now in the hos
pfce will be able to descend to the
valleys, even if they use skis. There
is sufficient food and drink to stand
a snow siege OF several months.

OUR ALIEN CITIES.
New York Has More Jews Than
Dwell i'm Palestine.

Chicago has fifty-four thousand
Lithuanian inhabitants, and claims
to be the largest Lithuanian
city in the world. The claim could
probably be substantiated, for Lith-
uania itself is, generally speaking, a
land of farms and small villages,
though Libau is a szeable city.
The situation, emphasized by the
statement concerning Chicago Lithu-
anians is familiar to everyone who
understands conditions in practically
all the larger American cities. New
York is credited with more Jews than
dwell in Palestine. Not many Italian
cities contain as many Italians as
could be mustered in any one of sew
eral cities in the United States. And
much the same might be said of Rus
slams, if not Bohemians.

LUKE WON'T DO, EITHER.
ATTORNEY GENERAL Is A VERY

WASHINGTON, d. C.-The criti-
cal judgment of Attorney General
McReynolds has reviewed the rec
ords of eight attorneys in a consider
able stretch of territory between Ma
con and Savannah and has declared
them unfit for one reason or another
for the position of district attorney
for the Southern district of Georgia..
Today, it may be said with prae-
tical certainty, he turned down the
last two of those recommended by
Senator West-Judge John s. Adams
of Dublin and Roscoe Luke of Thorn
asville.
The others who have been reject
ed are: A. Pratt Adams, Fred

Macon. Others were recommendeds
but withdrew. Practically all of the
above list had heavy Endorsements
and in only three cases were reasons
for rejection given. Partnerships
were given as the obstruction to the
Adams and Hitch cases, while Custer
had resided only short time in the
district. In the other cases no cause
has been assigned, or at least not
made public.
A feature of Mr.. Luke's rejection
is the probability that he will now
enter the race for congress against
Judge Frank Park. 1t was said here
during his visit to Washington that
if he lost tn edistrict attOrneyship
he would probably announce for con-
gress.

BIRMINGHAM Alabama wo-
man conducted the political campaign
of her husband for high Office and
won when Mrs. j. B. Brown of Gull
man saw her campaign work reward
ed by the election of her husband to
the court of appeals. All during the
campaign, which was a hot one, Col.
Brown attended to his law practice
and left his candidacy entirely in the
hands of his wife, who is popular in
social circles. She opened headquar-
tiers, employed three assistants and a
stenographer and went to work in
earnest.
She had the secretary of the Gull
man Commercial Club provide list
of all the clubs and business organi-
cations in the state, and to each
personal letter was sent. A local
dentist, a close friend of the family,
asked all the members of that pro-
fession, judge all the judges, the
school trustee all the trustees, an in
surance man all the insurance men
and so on through the list. Every
voter in Alabama received a per-
sonal letter.
Mrs. Brown put in six weeks of
hard work, denying herself to all So
eial functions in which she was wont
to lead. Her husband turned over
to her his bank book and told her to
use her judgment as to methods and
expenses.
She put a picture and an adver-
tisement Of Mr. Browns candidacy
in every newspaper in the state for a
week. When the votes were counted
she kept tab and refused to accept
the first report that her husband was
defeated, and later returns showed
he had won.
