CLARK A FAITHFUL FRIEND Humanity of the Speaker Illustrated by Little Story Told by Congressman Pepper. “One of the most, striking phases of Champ Clark’s many-sided character is his humanity,” remarked Representative L. 8. Pepper of lowa at the Willard. “He never forgets a friend, political or otherwise, and I know it. Some of the speaker’s friends told me a story not lopg ago that illustrates this side of his nature. “It seems that when a young lawyer, Clark was ambitious to be elected prosecuting attorney of his county. There was an old fellow—his name was Burwell —who ran a small grocery in Clark's town. He was a little testy, perhaps, for he did not like to be disturbed when telling a story, not even to wait on customers. The store, In fact, was conducted for the purpose of giving him an opportunity to hold i forth in pleasant discourses with his friends. He was in comfortable cir- ' [ cumstances and didn't have to work. Po’itfcally he was a man of large in- ' fluence in his community and was Clark's friend. He helped elect him 1 prosecuting attorney. It was a number of years ago, of course. ‘‘Not long ago. I was told, Clark l heard that the old man was sick and a trifle short of funds. He learned of , it through an old neighborhood friend. You know Champ Clark is not parueu- > larly frugal and never accumulated a 1 large bank account: but he sat down 1 and wrote a cheek that turned his bal- ! ance into an overdraft, gave it to ' , Wallace Bassford, and told him to j I ‘send this check to old man Burwell.’ ” CATCH TROUT TO SAVE THEM Idaho Officials Seine Them in Irrigation Ditches and Put Them Back in River. A rescue work of considerable magnitude is under way in the Big Lost ■ ' River valley. Idaho, where L. C. Jones, ' ■ assistant chief deputy in the state fish 1 and game department, is directing the | seining of the Big Lost River Land I ' and Irrigation company's canal for > ' trout, which are taken to the river proper and there deposited. The canal was built about two years ago, and fish screens should have i been provided at the head at that time, it is said, but it seems that this ■ has never been done, with the result i that it was feared that great quantities of trout would be lost when the , waters of the canal began to diminish. | The action of Mr. Jones and his as- , sistants in securing the fish alive and i returning them to the fresh and lasting waters of the main stream may save many trout It will be recalled that the waters in the canal are carried through a mountainous country in some sections, and that in coming down to the lowlands abrupt drops of from 15 to 20 feet a r e encountered occasionally. These the fish go over, and of course are unable to return. To prevent the members of | the finny trabe from being carried to I the fields and waste places where j death would be inevitable, the work of I | seining the canal has been inaugurat- ■ ed. Reports are tu the effect that the j efforts of the rescuers are proving < highly productive of results. Freak Shoes. I A shoe manufacturer In referring to ■ the increase in job lot shoe merchants ! said: “It is a peculiar situation when j a wholesaler of jobs exclusively is enabled to purchase whole carloads of good staple shoes at a tremendous discount from actual cost to the shoe manufacturer, and that Is just exactly what is being done. “It is not to ba understood that these job lot purchases are composed ‘ of rejected shoes or that they are of I odd sizes or anything of the sort. They . are regular factory lines of good ata--1 pie shoes in full sizes and are sold at j a great sacrifice because sc many fads : and Innovations have crept in that good staple shoes remain In wholeI ealera’ hands. Surely there la something radically wrong and out of joint i in the shoe business when such condk tions exist."—Shoe and Leather R* j porter. Cat and Dog Chume. When my dog was a puppy I got a little kitten to keep him company, eave I a writer In Fur News. They got to be good friends, but as they got. oldev I the cat seemed Io think she could take j care of herself. When the cat climbed a tree it s emed to puzzle the dog, and he would stand below the tree and look up at the cat and then at me, as if trying to understand how the cat could get up into the tree while he had to stay on the ground. When evening came the dog would hunt up the cat and carry her to the kennel where they slept at night. The dog kept one of his forelegs over tbe cat and there she had to stay until morning. At last the cat was killed, but I have the dog yet. Americans In Canada. Americans are rapidly colonizing the three Canadian provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. These three provinces had a population of 1,176,000 In 1909 aad nearly 500,000 of ( these settlers were Americans. Last year America's contribution to t’ae population of the provinces was 91.175 and these took with them an average of 11,000 each. A few years ago tbe land in any one of these provinces could b» bought for Han acre. Now j It ranges from |2O to |3O in acre, ,

WARSHIPS ANNOY SOL JACOBS' Frighten the Mackerel Away From His Seines Off Massachusetts Coast, Says Fisherman. If you were seining for mackerel ' and luck w-as with you and just, as you were about to draw in your nets ! with a fine catch half a dozen of ' Uncle Sam's battleships came along ! and frightened all the mackerel away, 1 wouldn’t it give you a headache? That’s just what it did to Capt. Sol ; Jacobs of the prime little auxiliary schooner Quartette, which reached T wharf. Sol had a grievance against the United States navy which it will take many days for him to live down. The other afternoon when the sun was just about sinking- in the sky and the water was as smooth as glass ! Sol spied a school of mackerel. It ; was the largest school he had seen ! for weeks. Orders were given to lower the •einirg boats and throw out the nets. 1 The rest was easy, for the nets sank down on the fish, and S< ’ stood on , the deck wearing a smile and thinking ul life dollars realized by that catch. But behold, just before the men in the seining dories had pulled in the nets at the bottom, imprisoning the : toothsome catch, along came half a ; dozen of the battleships that were in I the maneuvers at Provincetown and j kicked up the ocean so that the mack erei were frightened away “I was angry enough,” said Sol. “to fight tbe whole blamed squadron.”— ! Boston Daily Advertiser. — ARE ALWAYS ON THE DECLINE Wonder Is That the Dramatic and Culinary Arts Haven’t Reached the Bottom. From time to time some ancient t gentleman bursts into print on the I subject of the Good Old Days of the I stage, wails over the lamentable depre- , elation in public tastes, raves about i what he is pleased to call “the class- ’ ics” and wonders in a spasm of hys- ■ teria what we all are coming to any- ! how. Why is it that the stage and home j cooking are the only things that have consistently been on the decline for | the last three hundred years? And why, if half what these old folks say is true, haven’t the dramatic and culinary arts reached the bottom by this i time? Anybody with one good eye and recourse to a public library can ascertain with ease that ever since the advent of George Frederick Cooke in | this country, bewhiskpred pessimists j have been comparing the content- ' porary stage with the one of a dead generation to the great disparagement of the former. There must be a limit, a bottom, a finish somewhere to the pit into which American theatricals have been tumbling for the last 110 years. If we are on the way to the demnition bow-wows and have been heading there since the days of Hallam, when are we due to arrive? —Glenmore Davis in Sucecss Magazine. University Aviation. I Aviation as a science has been recognized by one of the most dignified educational bodies of Europe, the university of Paris, and an aerotechnical Institute has been established and is no* just beginning work under its direction. Th. was made possible by •n endowment of SIOO,OOO by Henry Deutsch, and an annual income of 13.000. The new institute is on tbe plateau »f St. Cyr, near Versailles, and on the edge of the maneuver field of the military school. It consists of a large group of buildings and laboratories, *lth a track for launching gliders, and *ll the apparatus that has so far been invented for the study of meteorology, »1r currents, air resistance and the Many problems connected with flight which are now so Imperfectly uader•tood. Sheep in City Park*. Rochester set the example, which •ther cities have followed, or utilizing her leading park a* a sheep ranch. New York uses her Centra! Park for this purpose, and has just added $350 to the park fund of the city from the •ale of 10 Southdown ewes and 39 lambs. But it is not for money chiefly that urban sheep herding is practiced. A flock of sheep in a city park Is one of its greatest attractions, especially to children. To hundreds, and perhaps to thousands, of city bred people a flock of sheep is about as mythical and unfamiliar as the pyramids of Egypt, it is a novelty both profitable and interesting.—Louisville Courier-Journal. Too Many Books. Barnaby Rich iu his preface to “A New Description of Ireland,” publlihed In 1800, writes: “One of the die. eases of this age is the multitude of books, that doth so overcharge the world that it is not able to digest the abundance of idle matter that is every day hatched and brought into the world, that are as divers in their forms as their authors be in their faces It is but a thriftless and thankless occupation, this writing of books. A man were better to *lt singing in a cobbler's shop, for bis pay is certainly a penny a patch! But a book writer, if he gets sometimes a few commendations of the judicious, he •hall be sure to reap a thousand reproaches of the malicious.” A Hard One. “I bear that Gooby’s new automo MU made a big hit with you.” “Quit* ♦o —kweked me nncoMciou*.
