CUT HIGH COST or LIVING
Ohio VIII Improve the Roads and

Markets.

COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 5.--Lower thu
cost Of living by improving the coun.
try roads, thereby giving the farmers
easy access to the market, which vii,
encourage them to produce more
Heavier production means lower
prices.
That's the theory of James R
Marker. state highway commissioner
who aims to give Ohio the best roads
In the United States. Marker will
have at his personal disposal this
year 100000 and every year there
after for ten years there will be 49,
100000 at the disposal of the state
highway commissioner for use on
roads In the state.
This fund means we will have the
best schools. markets and community
enterprises of all kinds, argues
Marker. Good roads means better
civilization because they bring per-
sons in closer touch with one another"
Work on rebuilding 9233 miles of
Ohio roads starts this spring and
Marker predicts 1000 miles will be
by the end of the year. In
ten years he expects to have accom-
plished the whole task.

Football SoIons to Meet.

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Whether the
t sentiment of the public demands that
football players wear numbers or
their backs, so that spectators may
tell at glance the identity of the
player, is the most important matter
which will come up before the an
nual meeting of the football rules
committee, which is to be held here
tomorrow and Saturday at the Hotel
Martinique. Football experts who
gathered here today to attend the
meeting were about evenly divided on
the question. Those who will favor
the plan declared today that the
change would mean vast increase
of interest by the general public in
the gridiron. Delegates who are here
today said they believed few changes
will be made this year in the playing
rules.

SPURIOUS MONEY
In CIRCULATION
SECRET SERVICE DEPARTMENT
OF THE GOVERNMENT TELLS
OF INVESTIGATION.
Makes Claim That of Every 500, 900 Of
Money There are 81 of the Sum
Counterfeit.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.--If you have
, 100000 in silver and 100000 in bills
hid away in a wooden sock under the
mattress or horded in tin box under
, an apple tree you are probably hoard
$4 in counterfeit money.
Nobody knows just how much bad
money Is in circulation, for obviously
a perfect counterfeit could never be
detected. But perfection is as scarce
among bad bills as it is among good
men, and after close tabulations COW
ering a period of year the United
States secret service has come to the
conclusion chat not more than SO in
every 100000 of silver nor more than
81 in every 100000 of bills is spur
ious.
To the secret service office there
goes eventually every piece of count
erfeit money discovered. 1t is the
great purifying plant of the stream
of our national currency, though it is
only one of its vital functions. The
appearance of new counterfeit is to
| the secret service what the clang of
the gong is to a fire department. No
matter how astute The counterfeiter,
he cannot carry his operations far
until the service has a line on him"
his methods, accomplices, and general
IL. r.
is usually but a matter of days.
There is an erroneous idea, very |
generally held that paper money Is |
printed on paper manufactured by a |
secret process which is carefully
guarded from the public. The truth !
is that almost any paper house could
make the identical paper were it not
prohibited by law from doing so. The
matter of the silk fibres into the
fabric is comparatively simple, and
the appearance of these tiny shreads,
often cleverly initiated with fine pen,
not infrequently induces the inexper-
fenced to accept a counterfeit bill of
which they are suspicious.
With the development of photo-en
craving the shady art of counterfeit
ing received big impetus. Prior to l.;
that industry only experts could hope I
to produce bills that would pass even (
casual inspection. And as mans hand {
work always expresses his individual I
.ty the thumb print" of every count ,
erfeiter was literally on every bill he ,

Today, however, bills may be dup
icated by a purely mechanical pro- S
,ess But the lines are heavy and I'M C
wen, and while such reproduction C
nay get by an inexperienced clerk the
xpert can spot it at a glance. c.

MORE MONEY NEEDED
Appropriation by Last Legislature not
Sufficient for State Capitol
Fund.

The state board of examiners will
it is believed, give its written con-
sent, as provided in the general appro-
priations bill of the last legislature, so
additional liability can be incurred or
deficiency warrants issued to provide
for the maintenance of the state capitol
building during the balance of the year.
The legislature appropriated $4,000
for the maintenance of the capitol
buildings and grounds. There is be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 balance left
in the fund now.
The appropriations committee of the
last legislature while pruning down
appropr atoms for the various state de-
partments cut the capitol buildings and
grounds appropriation and it is now
clearly evident that there is not enough
money in the fund to run through the
biennial period, with the result that the
maintenance force will either have to
be disposed of and the buildings and
tHelT upkoep lett 10 take care OF llleul-
selves or deficiency will have to be
created.
Officials at the state house d. not
believe that anything could be gained
but loss would result if the mainten-
ance of the new capitol building is
crippled. 1t requires a large force of
men to take care of the buildings and
the various offices and departments |
while number of men are employed |
1T the power plant and on the grounds, |
he total force being composed of IT,
they are divided into shifts.
The legislature also made it a mis-
lemeanor for any state official, either
II the capitol or in charge of state in
titutions, to create an Indebtedness
'ver and in excess of the appropria-
ion bill and it is provided that if
his is done the debt shall be void and
he state cannot be held liable.-Boise

Seed for Distribution.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Represent
alive Addison Smith has secured
through the department Of agriculture
for distribution a large supply Of
alfalfa seed, field peas and millet
peculiarly adapted to dry farming, and
which will be distributed to those
who desire to experiment in dry
land farming.
Each package contains sufficient
seed to plant one acre and will be ac-
companied by printed slips giving
cultural directions.
The department experts have been
conducting experiments with different
varieties of grain adapted to dry
farming and tits believed that good
crops of alfalfa, millet and peas can
be raised on arid lands in Idaho with
out irrigation.

Socialists EspOuse Woman Suffrage.

ROME, Feb. 5.-The formal ANAL
gamation of the Italian socialists and
feminists for the attainment of thelr
respective political ends, took place
today. The recent election of 80 So
cialist deputies to parliament was in
large measure due to the campaign
efforts of the Italian suffragettes, the
socialists alone having declared them
selves in favor of equal suffrage. In
return for this the socialistic party to-
day announced it's formal alliance
with the feminists The socialists
will fight to secure suffrage for the
former, and the latter will fight to Sc
cure parliamentary support for the
socialist legislation desired.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Around con
gress they call him the Bullet Cush
ion."
His right name is SAINT Kirkpatrick
and he Is representative from the sixth
Iowa district which used to be solidly
republican But that has nothing tc
do with the strange appelation.
He received that title after counter
feiters, moonshiners and other bad
men had pumped 200 pieces of lead
into him in his 90 years service With

vice. In addition to the couple of
hundred lead pellets scattered through
his anatomy, Representative Kirkpat-
rick can boast of one glass eye, one
hole in the leg, acquittals on every
charge against him from petit larceny
to murder, to say nothing of reputa-
ton for willingness to fight anything
from the Old Nick himself to a den of
wild cats.
The bullet cushion" is close to sew
enty years old now, but the old fighting
spirit is still with him, and he still
boasts that he can shave" mans
moustache at so yards with 80 cali
Der razer.
Strange to relate, Kirkpatrick went
through the Civil war without a
wound. Twenty-seven of the shot that
he carries as souvenir Of his earlier
labors for Uncle Sam came from a |
moonshine hut in South Carolina |
Pursuing one of these southern des-
peradoes, Kirkpatrick was turned up |
on and the contents of an old muzzle |
loading shot gun was discharged in his |
face That's how SAINT lost his eye

that's why, too, there sleeps today in
