THE MEN IN THE SHOPS.

Milwaukee Sentinel May 5: Milwaukee will
play large part in the campaign Of M. G..
Jeffris, republican candidate for United States
senator. Mr. Jeffris, who is in the city confer
ring with supporters concerning details of the
campaign, will deliver several speeches in the
states metropolis. The speaking program here
will include downtown meetings and visits to
the large manufacturing plants, where he will
speak to the men in the shops
II think | have story to tell the working
men that will interest them, said he, land
am eager to discuss with them the issues which
are of vital concern to our people"
Don't be too sure Mr. Jeffris, that
you can interest the workingmen. For
a good many years American working
men have made it very plain that they
are not humbugged by the false claim
that high tariff taxation spells high
wages. They know that the present
uncxampled prosperity of these United
States is the outcome of commercial
freedom throughout a vast empire; and
that it has only been hindered and
hampered by tariff burdens.
When Mr. Jeffris, as the representa-
tive of the home rule and taxpayers
league. undertakes to speak to the men
in the shops, he must of necessity go
into the enemy's country, so far as the
men, themselves, are concerned. 1t was
the weakness of the league that it had
no wage earners among its member
ship. Good, single hearted and intelli
gent workingmen, in the last session of
the legislature, did much to save the
laws of the state from mutilation.
The men in the shops are rather busy
to knock off and listen to man like
Mr. Jeffris, who talks as though he had
learned his political economy from the
old Chicago Inter Ocean, or the leaflets
of the Protective Tariff league. Their
hands are busy and their thoughts are
turned to the future.

RETURNS S35 STOLEN
YEARS AGO IN HOLDUP
Evangelist, Then a Huckster, Gets
Money In Conscience Letter-Ac-
completes Didn't Contribute.

Hagerstown, 1nd.-Twenty-two years
ago, as j. n. Baldwin, then a huckster,
was driSing to his home, five miles
north of here, he was held up by three
masked men and robbed of $35, the
robbery occurring just at dusk on the
public highway and in sight of his
home. There was no clew, and the
matter was dropped without investiga-
ton.
Mr. Baldwin, who seven years ago
moved to Cowan, near Muncie, and is
travelling as an evangelist, recently re-
ceiyed letter sent from this place, in
which $50 was inclosed. The letter
read:
Here is your money. I want to get this
from my mind and get clear of this sin.
All these years since I helped to rob you
have been years Of hell. I was but six
teen years old, and bad company got me
into it. The gun I pointed at you while
the other two highwaymen robbed you
was a pocketknife. The other two that
helped are still living, but neither helped
me make this up to you.

BOY, 10, IS YOUNGEST
ORGANISE IN KANSAS
Keep Close Watch on Him Be-
cause of His Liking For All
Outdoor Sports.

Centralia, Kan.-Centralia people de-
clare the town has the youngest church
Organist in the state and probably the
only boy organist. Edward Everett is
only thirteen years old, and when in
his knee pants suit he walks up into
the choir gallery on Sunday mornings
strangers might think he was going
to pump the church organ or maybe
sing in children's chorus, but would
never suspect he was the church or
ganist for a real grownup choir, in
Guiding music supervisors and teach
erS.
And when he gets on the bench at
the organ you cannot see even the top
of his head, so the music gives one
the impression of coming from the
organ without any assistance. When
the services are over and Edward
walks out strangers are astOnished.
He shirks none of the regular program
Of the services, but plays voluntaries
and anthems as we'll as the hymns,
and chooses difficult, high class music.
Edward is by no means a sissy, and
for that reason every precaution is
being taken to make sure of his ap-
pearance at the service. He is very
fond of baseball and all other sports.
This town has had considerable diff

BLOOMINGTON.

Bloomington Record: The rivers are
falling, after almost reaching the high
water mark. At Bridgeport the Wis
consin came within six inches of the
mark, and the Mississippi at Cassville
lacked less than two feet. Experts say
there was more water than in $780, be-
cause the river bottoms have been
cleared and the waters run away much
more rapidly.

AN EFEECTUAL REMEDY.

Senator Hastings contention at the Depart
ment Of Justice that if there is no law prohibit
ing few men in the service Of a foreign Gov
eminent from deluging Congress with intimi-
dating kilograms something Of the kind should
be enacted, may be worthy of consideration,
but more effectual remedy would be to ar
range in some manner for the presence in Con-
gress Of more men like himself who are not
easily scared.-New York World.

Baraboo Democrat: To date the most dis
quieting feature of the 6. o. P. presidential
primaries is the presence of Henry Ford, the
auto pacifist, and his vote. Nebraska turned a
complete somersault; Michigan laid the aspira-
tons of Believing William Alden Smith into
cold storage. and the east is split up the back.
A few weeks ago Ford was an economic joke
as political factor he was not in the sub-con-
seriousness of the republican wise ones. His
candidacy can be considered in no other light
than counter blast to the noisy colonel.

Aroused Neighbors' Interest.
Pulaski, N. Y.-Mrs. M. l.. Halliday of
Mexico has parrot thirty years old
The bird is unusually intelligent and
has aroused much interest in this Sec
~tion of the state. The bird was
brought out Of Mexico when only four
months old and shipped to Syracuse.
The change of climate affected the
bird, but it recovered. 1t was later
taken to the village Of Mexico, where
much care and attention were given it.
If person comes and knocks at the
door Of the Halliday home the parrot
will announce the visitor, often calling
the person at the door by name. When
the bird is hungry it does not hesitate
to announce the fact, and when there
is any other discomfort the birds wall
ings attract attention.

OLD MAN CAVE DWELLER.
Sleeps on Bed Made of Leaves and
Some Dry Vegetation.

Fulton, Mo. H. B. Bode deputy
state highway commissioner, has dis
covered that Galloway county has a
cave dweller in one Of the bluffs in the
hills northwest Of Cedar city.
Curious children first discovered the
man when they cautiously crept up to
the mouth of the cave and found him
sleeping on leaves and dried vegeta-
ton. His fire smoldered near the en-
trance to the cave, and near at hand
were some primitive cooking utensils
fashioned out of stone.
During the day he carries load after
load of fagots and logs to keep his fire
going, and apparently he lives in COM
fort. Children reported him to be
kind looking man, with long beard.

the fire was hard one to fight. Several
other buildings caught. and for a while
it was thought the whole town would
be destroyed, but everybody worked
valiantly and got it under control.
John Howard lost nearly all of his
household goods, which he had stored
in his fathers barn. Mr. Taylor lost
some grain, but his car and a load of
hay still unloaded were saved.
