CAUSE CF iMS DOWNFALL Politics Led Representative Lewis Astray . it is Said, Brazil, Ind., Feb. 11. Tha defalcation of T. U. Lewis, former treasurer of Miners' local union No. 244, of this city, is said to be larger than at first supposed. The books show that the shortage is $G70, but the committee of investigation reports that he collected about $200, and made no record of it. They also charge that he collected money belonging to the union after he was removed from office. Lewis is the present Republican joint representative for the counties of Clay and Owen, and his friends say that his success in politics is the cause of his downfall, and that he began gambling while attending the meeting of the last legislature in Indianapolis.

Car Burned at Station. Indianapolis, Feb. 11. An express car coupled to a Big Four train from Cleveland caught fire in an unknown manner as The train was palling into the city. By the time it- pulled into the Union station sheds the car was enveloped in f.ames. The car was detached from the train and sidetracked.

The car was badly damaged and the loss may cost the railroad company several thousand dollars.

HOWELL UNSEATED

House Decides Pennsylvania District Election Contest. Washington, Feb. 11. The house disposed of the Ccnnell-Howell contested election case from the Tenth Pennsylvania district in favor of Mr. Connell. The Republicans, with the exception of Messrs. Lanning (N. J.), Shiras (Pa.) and Parker (N. J.), supported the resolution unseating Mr. Howell and giving the seat to the contestant. The Democrats solidly supported Mr. Howell. Mr. Connell was promptly sworn in and took his seat. The house has resumed consideration of the senate amendment proposing a loan of $4,600,000 to the Louisiana Purchase exposition, on which a vote on the question of concurrence will be taken today.

Machen, under crossexamination, reiterated the statement that he recommended the Groff fastener because oi its merits and not through the influence either of the Groffs or Lorenz. He explained that when he came to Washington to assume his duties he owed $30,000 and at the present time owes but $2,000 of that debt. It was brought out by the government that since 1S99 Machen had deposited in a Westminster (Md.) bank over $77,000, and the government sought to show that it was impossible for him through the various sources mentioned by him to have received this amount of money. Hanna's Physicians Uneasy. Washington, Feb. 11. Senator Hanna's condition remains practically unchanged. The physicians say that no complications have developed. It is this feature of the case that the physicians are guarding zealously against as they realize that if any complications develop in the senator's distressingly weak con.Ltion the result may be fatal quickly. The doctors say that they are satisfied with the progress of the case although they do not conceal their apprehension that unforseen complications may occur at any time. Great Starch Factory Burned. Oswego, N. Y., Feb. 11. Fire that started in the chemical room of the Corn Products company's starch factory caused the destruction of the whole establishment.

A DOUBLE RESURRECTION.

Seiiuel to General orI5n' Kindi)mm to u Cii ion Oflleer. The late General Francis C. Barlow of the Union army foil wounded and. it was thou plit. dying during the iirst day of the battle of Gettysburg and within the Confederate lines, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. The late General John B. Gordon, cantering by, saw him and recognized him. Dismounting, he approached the prostrate man and inquired what he could do for him. "I am dying," said Barlow. "Just reach into my coat pocket, draw out the letter you find there and read it to me. It is from my wife." Gordon read the letter. "Now, general," said Barlow, "please destroy that letter. I want you to noti-' fy her she is in the town over yonder what has happened to mo." "I will," replied Gordon. He sent for Mrs. Barlow, .giving uer safe conduct through the southern lines, and then rode away, certain that Barlow's death was a question of only a few hours at most. But Barlow did not die. His wife came promptly and had him removed to the town of Gettysburg, where she nursed him so faithfully that he recovered. Many years passed until one night both generals were guests at a dinner in Washington. Some one brought them together and formally introduced them. Time had altered the personal appearance of both. "Are you any relation to the General Barlow who was killed at Gettysburg V" asked Gordon. "Yes; a very near relation," answered Barlow, with a laugh. "I am the very man who was killed. But I have been informed that a man named Gordon lost his life in battle later on. He saved my life at Gettysburg. Are you any kin to that man?" "I am he," .was the reply. Both heroes laughed as they gave each other a heartier handshake. IF THE JAPS LOSE. It Is Said They Will Blow Up Their Ships Rather Thau Surrender. Despite the lesson of the Boer war, the Japanese did very little open order and extended formation work ir their last maneuvers, but operated in solid masses as trim and right angled as though shaped with a spirit-level, says the Yokohama correspondent of the London Mail in Japan. When Field Marshal Marquis Yamagata was asked if Japan would not change her field tactics to suit the conditions of modern fighting he replied: "Japan will reveal her tactics in battle. Be sure that they will be those necessary to insure victory." This was not the self confidence of the unbeaten warrior, but the expression of the only spirit Japan knows, for she never considers defeat even as a remote possibility. On the sea officers and men are spoiling for a fight. From the crews of the huge Mikasa and her sister battleships down to the men on such craft as the White Naped Crane and the Dragon's Lamp torpedo destroyers they are swearing by every ancestor that, if let loose, they will sink or capture each consonantly named Russian warship in the Pacific. And do they not contemplate a possible defeat? Yes; but capture no. Never will a Japanese ship, high or low, go into port a prize. When the turrets are jammed and the big guns dumb, when the screws are still and all defense is dead and done, the men chosen by lot before the beginning of action will from their station in the heajt of the ship perform "the last full measure of devotion" in exploding the magazines, and the sixteen petaled chrysanthemum on the imperial standard will go deep down in a welter of blood and steam ; and smoke till, "streaked with ash and sleeked with oil, the lukewarm whirlpools close."

The Whole Cheese. John I. Rockefeller is taking the'eheese cure for indigestion. News Item. If I were only Rockefeller, How I should delight In eating two inch golden bricks At twelve o'clock at night. And then I'd seek my downy bed And fe;; st r.iy eyes vipon Red ra tt! nn kes and prong tailed gnus Until the breaking dawn. If I were only Rockefeller, What a joy 'twould be To make a breakfast of minee slips Spread thick with fragrant lirie, And when I took my morning nap I'd hear the horrid screams Of loud carousing crocodiles Go surging through my dreams. If I were only Rockefeller, Nothing could compare. "When thoughts of supper crossed my soul, With toothful Camembert, And. firmly ballasted with that, Tire vasty deeps I'd dare And bid a bold defiance to The dread of mal de mtr. If I were only Rockefeller, The grindstones that they make In foundries in far Switzerland I'd much prefer to steak. While Edams red and Roquefort green And Pont l'Evequrjs decayed Within me like u pousse cafe In layers would be laid. If I were only Rockefeller, All the rest of you Would sletp serene and dreamless sleeps The long night hours through. For I would buy on every bund All cheese, both great and small, And how could you . have food for dreams When I had got it all? James Montague in New York Journal.

CHILDTAINING CENSURED. CfcicnSfoan Tlilnkn More I ntelliKence In Shown In Caring For Vltsn. "If we reared our sons and daughters as intelligently as a farmer raises pigs and colts there would be more sound men and women among us." So said Principal William L Watt of the Graham school in Chicago in a lecture before the Institute of Education the other day. says the Chicago News. He continued: "One who investigates the conditions under which children are educated in cities cannot but wonder that there are as many sound men and women as we actually have. It should be the rule that the sound man Is a common thing and the unsound unfortunate the exception." The theme of the speaker was "Sociological Aspects of Sedentary Education." He held the present system of seating the pupils in schools on hard wooden benches and the position that the pupils have to assume was the reason why so many children were weak and unhealthy. Continuing, the speaker remarked: "We laud the hero and do heroic things when the eyes of our fellows are upon us, but we are cowards when we think nobody is looking. We boast of the superior form of government which our forefathers framed for us. They framed it for fewer people than now live in Chicago, and we have not the stamina to make for our city anything to compare with their work. "We proclaim against wrongs done by other people against the lower classes, and our politicians buy votes and rob the poor. We ask visitors to admire our public buildings, built to look like heaven and burn like hades. We demand of all officers of our government an oath of fidelity, and we permit them to shift the blame among themselves. We have a fine code of laws. We do not enforce them." For the existence of such conditions the speaker- contended that the training of children in the early period of their school life was at fault. "Let there be a campaign against the liar, the sneak, the thief, the undeveloped and the envious, and let it be begun before they are mature and hardened. Get them in the making," he conelud-eu.

CALLS BRITISH FRIVOLOUS. One Writer Says They Care More For May Than For Work. A writer in Blackwood seems to think the British a decidedly frivolous people and solemnly rebukes them for their frivolity, says the London correspondent of the New York Times. "History," he says, "tells us that Nero 4 fiddled while the imperial city was in flames, and in fiction we read that a gladiatorial display ushered in the last days of Pcnipeii. May it not happen one of these days that we shall be found going forth to our play rather than to our work and labor while the fate of the empire is hovering ih the balance? Has it not, indeed, been so with vis since the birth of this twentieth century? Is it too much to say that within the last two years the performances cf an Australian eleven in England were more closely studied and commanded more general attention than the prospects of peace or even the death roll in South Africa? "Which name, we should like to know, has been the more loudly sounded throughout the length and breadth of England Sir Thomas Lipton or General Egerton? Was our failure to bring the Mad Mollah to book in Somaliland to be mentioned in the same breath as the dismal shortcomings of the Shamrock?" There's a batch of questions for a debating club to take the place of some that have become tiresome through protracted use. RIPLEY'S PASS UNHONORED Santa Fe President Had to Pay ?G2..0 to II In Ovrif Ro'nd. It is probable that the next time E. P. Ripley, president of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, journeys over his road from Los Angeles to Chicago he will either issue himself a special form of pass good on the California limited or take another train, says a Chicago dispatch to the Kansas City Star. Mr. Ripley recently returned from Los Angeles. He was called, to Chicago in a hurry. He directed his secretary to reserve berths on the first Chicago bound train, which happened to be the limited. The secretary promptly reserved two berths on that train. Fifty miles from Los Angeles the conductor arrived at Mr. Ripley's berth, Mr. Ripley handed him his annual pass. "We do. not accept passes on this train; strict order against it from the president," said the conductor. "That's a fact," said Mr. Ripley, "but I am the president of the road, and I guess you may honor this pass." "Well, I guess I won't," replied the conductor. "You may be the president of the road, but I don't know you, and, as this order against passes comes from the president. I can't violate it." Whereupon Mr. Ripley handed over Saved by Her IVew Hat. Mrs. F. II. Buhl, wife of Frank II. Buhl, former president of the Sharon Steel company, owes her life to the new style of hat, says a Sharon (Pa.) dispatch. She was walking along Oakland avenue the other day, when she fell, striking her. head on the ston. sidewalk. The blow rendered her u&. conscious. She was carried to her resl donee, where physicians, after mucH dUlioulty, revived her. Underneath tht back part of her hat was a heavy roll of velvet extending back and downward several inches. When her head struck the stone pavement this served as a cushion. The physicians say that had she not worn the hat her skull -would have been fractured.
