WALTERG. SMITH
ALWAYS where
Things DOING

Friends and acquaintInces Of Wa.
ter G.. Smith. who died last night In
San Mateo. Calf, are today recount
ing many stories Illustrative OF his in
dependence OF character and unique
personality. .~....@...-
One of them relates TO his early
career in newspaper work. After grad
uation at Cornell in the early SOS he
became editor of a. newspaper in Me
chanicsville. y. Y. In May, 1881. Sena-
t0rs Roscoe Conkfing and Thomas c.
Plat suddenly resigned. owing TO diff
erences of opinion with President Gar
field on question Of patronage and
both went out for reelection, making n
campaign that for bitterness has sell
dom been equalled The young Me-
chanicsyille editor signaled his en-
trance into the fed by Suddenly turn
ing his paper from a "Stalwart" to a
Half Breed" journal Mr. Smith used
to remark that after this he was run
OUT of Meehanicsyille, but it is gen
orally believed that he retired with
coIors flying.
Another characteristic incident is re-
lated Of his experience in the New
York legislature, to which he was
elected in 1886. Warner Miller was
cut for reelection 10 the United States
senate and all of Smiths political asso-
ciates voted for him. To the surprise
of everyone, Smith voted for the other
candidate. Smith at that time was
editing a paper in Ithaca, n. Y. and it
is rel3ted that he soon after left this
position. 49,.
When asked afterward why he did
not vote for Miller, he said Nobody
asked me to-" which was correct for
Miller's managers all assumed that he
was supporting their man. =
Walter G.. as he was very generally
known, led an adventurous career as
war correspondent in several countries
and in times Of peace could always be
relied upon to stir up something. Once
when he was living in San Diego he
conceived the idea OF starting reyo-
luton in Lower California Not only
did he conceive il, but he made his
plans with such ability and started
them with such force that the Mexican
government, becoming alarmed, not
only took up the matter with TIE
United States, but sent warship up
to San Diego. q p. ~. T.. .
= Smiths instruction was just about
to break when its promoter and the
presumptive governor general of Lower
California realized that it was up to
him to get out of San Diego or get
into trouble with the United States
federal authorities. backed by Mexico's
demand. He took to the mountains
without standing on the order of his
going, though his friends at the time
said that he was in search of health
and recreation. Mr.. Smith, himself,
never made any bones OF the fact that
his health demanded a sudden get
away from San Diego The 'insurrec-
ton" collapsed and after awhile he
came out of the mountains
These are sonle Of the incidents
Characteristic tof his life. His keen
tongue and even keenef pen could stir
up trouble almost at a word. He loved
TO be where things were doing and
there was nothing he hated more than
monotony or the absence of swift
moving events. -s r.

A MESSAGE TO THIN,
WEAK, ScRAWNY FOLKS
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 lbs. Of
Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh.

Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say,
4 can't understand why | do not get
fat. | eat plenty of good, nourishing
food. The reason is just this: You
cannot get fat, no matter how much
you eat unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat making elements
;'of your food instead of passing them
out through the body as waste.
What is needed is a means of gent
~ urging the assimilative function of
the stomach and intestines to absorb
the oils and fats and hand them over
to the blood, where they may reach
the starved, shrunken, rundown It's
sues and build them up. The thin
persons body is like a dry sponge
eager and hungry for the fatty mate
rails Of which it is being deprived by
the failure of the alimentary canal to
take them from the food. The best
way to overcome this sinful waste of
flesh building elements and to stop
the leakage Of fats is to use Sar-
gol, the recently discovered regenera-
| tive force that is recommended
so highly by physicians here
and abroad. Take a little Sar-
gol tablet with every meal and
notice how quickly your cheeks
fill out and rolls Of firm, healthy flesh
are deposited over your body, cover
ing each bony angle and projecting
point
.caution:-While Sargol has produc.
ed remarkable results in overcoming
nervous dyspepsia and general stom-
ach troubles it should not be taken
unless you are willing to gain ten
pounds or more, for it is wonderful
flesh-builder. For sale by Benson,

TOOK LONG CHANCE
Moving Picture Star Risked Life
for Scene.
Jump From Moving Locomotive Is
Something That Frank Powell Is
by No Means Anxious
to Do Again.

Frank Powell, Pathe director, is tell
ing of some exciting times that he has
been having in connection with his pic
ture, 1.-THE Taint," which has just
been finished He bought a modern
locomotive for the sole purpose of
turning it into scrap iron before his
cameras. Edward Jose, his leading
man, was to make his escape from pur-
suers by confiscating the engine, start
ing 1t and letting it run wild. Mr.. jose
showed his nerve by asserting to this
decidedly ticklish venture, and Mr..
Powell and his camera man showed
theirs by standing on small platform
only very few feet away from where
the locomotive was to be ditched.
Everything went off smoothly at
the start. Mr.. Jose got the engine
started on its wild career and just be-
fore it left the rails of the siding
where the accident was to take place
made the thrilling leap for life. The
steep bank would have been marvel
to circus acrobat. When he picked
up his aching body he found that he
had left good part of the skin of his
face upon the embankment. In the
meantime Mr.. Powell and the camera
man found their platform had been
placed dangerously near the derailing
point. The engine charged down up
on them like a mad bull and landed
beside them in roar of escaping
steam and shower of earth and
stones. To the 5000 spectators it
looked as though the two men could
not escape, so when they emerged
from the cloud of steam cheer OF
relief went up and everyone pressed
forward to extend their congratula-
lions.
Besides Mr.. Jose the cast includes
the well-known Ruby Hoffman,
Creighton Hale and Ben Hendricks
1t is interesting to note that New Jer-
sey railroad made big feature of the
engine wrecking and ran excursion
trains to the scene.
