We never tire of the drama of sunset. I go forth each afternoon and look Into the west a quarter of an hour before sunset with fresh curiosity to see what new picture will be painted there, what new phenomenon exhibited, what new dissolving views. Every day a new picture is painted and framed, held tip for half an hour In such lights as the great artist chooses and then withdrawn and the curtain falls. The sun goes down, long the afterglow gives light, the damask curtains glow along the western window, the first star Is lit, and I go home. From Thoreau's "Winter." Power of Words.

"Bare" means "mere" as well as "naked." and I cannot doubt that by "bare bodkin" Shakespeare meant "mere bodkin," the point of the passage being with how contemptibly small an Instrument we could, if we chose, put an end to life and all its bother. "Bare" probably was used Instead of "mere" for the sake of effective alliteration. (Cf. with namlefs "bare bodkin;" Richard IIs "little pin," IU. 2, 1G&.) For "ba" In the sense of "mere" I need cite only "bare- Imagination of a faaaL" Loedoa Not and Queries.

1 PROTEST AGAIIISTPHOJECT John A. Evans of Quaker. City Machine Company Defines His Position. STREET CLOSING MATTER DECLARES HIS PROPERTY WILL BE RENDERED VALUELESS IF FOURTEENTH STREET IS CLOSED AS PETITIONED FOR. Editor Palladium Since the proposition to close Fourteenth Street from North E street to the - tracks of the Pennsylvania railroad company was originally made to the city hy the Hoosier Drill Company, or more properly by Mr. James Carr, one of the officers of the American Seeding Machine Co., the trust that - owns the Hoosier plant, public sentiment has been moulded entirely in one direction and that direction has been favorable to the Hoosier concern. I have not deemed it wise nor expedient to make a public defense through the press of my attitude in this matter until now, and only do so nocv because of the fact that a most erroneuos and wholly unfair repression has gone out, reflecting seriously upon myself. The Idea which prevails very largely is that I, as a manufacturer whose place of business Is to- be affected by the closing of Fourteenth street have been attempting to handicap the growth of the Hoosier plant and that In addition to this that I have been attempting to "hold up" that corporation. In the first place I wish to state em phatically one fact. I have never been made a proposition by the officers of the Hoosier plant, directly or Indirect ly, to sell my plant. Stories to the effect that the Hoosier has made me generous offers for my business property are absolutely untrue and not based on a tangible fact of any sort My position In the matter is simply this. The Hoosier plant desires to ex pand and asks the city to close Four teenth street My place of business is north of the railroad on the east side of Fourteenth street between the Pennsylvania tracks and F St. The representatves of the Hoosier plant have purchased all the ground east of me to Fifteenth street from the rail road tracks to F street; they have pur chased the ground north of my property to F street also. In other worffl my manufacturing establishment is absolutely surrounded bytheHoosler's ground. The corporation now seeks t'j close Fourteenth street I will be hemmed in on the south as well as on the east and north. The next thing that likely will happen when the Hoosier occupies all this ground about my property will be the petitioning of council for a switch to run along Fourteenth street In front of my plant so that connection may be made with the Hoosier's new property. Not only this but under a franchise with the city the C. C. & L. can at any time I believe, lay a track along F street and should that company desire to reach the Hoosier plant that is the on ly method by which it could be done Even without either "of these railroad companies building tracks to the Hoosier along the streets mentioned, my property Is greatly affected, a fact that even the Hoosier plant will not deny; with such track arrangements I would be hemmed in altogether. desire in the first place to remain where I am. I am entitled, I believe under the laws of the State to thx same consideration that any otheA property owner on any street Is entltl ed to receive. I much prefer to re(Continued to Page Seven.) THE SOLAR SYSTEM. Some Fact. Which Give an Idea mt Ita Immensity. In all the heavens, with the exception of passing meteors or meteorites, not one body occupies a position closer to earth than the moon, which Is some 240,000 miles away very far, of course, side by side with any earthly distances, but a mere fraction side by side with other astronomical distances. Next to the moon our nearest occasional neighbor Is Venus, end then Mars. Both Venus and Mars, however, are often farther away from us than the sun, which remains always at somewhere about the same distance, roughly at from 90,000,000 to 93,000,000 miles. This dividing space between sun and earth Is of great Importance in thinking about the stars, and It should be clearly impressed upon the mind. Next to the sun In point of nearness come the more distant planets Jupiter, which is about five times as far from the sun as our earth is; Saturn, nearly twice as far as Jupiter; Uranus, nearly twice as far as Saturn, and Neptune, nearly three times as far as Saturn. All these planets belong to our sun, all are members of his family, all are part of the solar system. The site of the solar system as a whole, consisting thus of the sun and his planets. Including our earth, may be fairly well grasped by any one taking the trouble to master two simple facts. They are these, that our earth Is roughly about 02,000,000 miles away from the sun and that Neptune, the outermost planet of the solar system. Is nearly thirty times as far distant from the sua as our earth is. Chambers' Journal. Still Time. Burroughs Say. old man, there was a time when yon promised to share your last dollar with me.

THE LONG SIEGE Speaker Cannon Believes Congress Will Adjourn First of Month. 3EVERIDGE IS IMPROVED INDIANA SENATOR WILL BE BACK IN THE HARNESS THIS WEEKCONDITION OF COUNTRY'S Fl NANCES. (By W. A. Crawford.) Washington, June 10. Senator Beveridge was ill last week and because of his condition Senator Aldrich has taken care of his interests in the Statehood bill -fight, which is holding the attention of the Senate. The strength of the Senior Senator from Indiana has been overtaxed by reason of his participation in the Statehood conference and in preparation of his meat inspection bill. Accordingly his physicians have advised him to take a complete rest from his duties for several days. There is nothing in his condition to occasion alarm, however, and he probably will be back In the harness this week. . . Representative Newton W. Gilbert of Indiana was the guest of honor at a dinner last week given by Representative McKlnley of . Illinois. The two men are close friends, and the dinner was in the nature of a farewell for Mr. Gilbert Is leaving for the Philippines to assume . his new duties as Federal judge. Senator Hemenway and Representatives Overstreet and Charles B. Landis were among the guests. Congress is beginning to realize that the country, and more especially the Middle West because of its ' isolation from the sea, is entering on an area that demands a revolution In waterway transportation. The National Rivers and Harbors Congress is doing wonders in bringing before the Senate and the House the necessity for developing the natural resources of the country along transportation lines. Speaker Cannon believes that the present session will adjourn about the first of the month. President Roosevelt has expressed the hope that he will be able to leave the capitol on that date, and the warm weather that Is setting in likely will force Congressmen to hasten business. There is nothing so conducive to Quick action on the part of Congress as hot weather. Congress rises with mercury. Financially Uncle Sam is on good times. With his debt decreasing and more money in circulation than ever before, his prospects for continued prosperity are very bright According to the official figures, the public debt at the close of May was $981,954,692, a decrease for the month of $2,458,555. During the last month the national bank notes ni circulation, according to the Comptroller of the Currency, totalled $559,129,660, an increase for the month of $2,483,378 and for the year of $70,802,144. The amount of circulation based on United States bonds also showed a decided gain. Another pleasing financial feature is found In the fact that the government's receipts for the month of May were $2,131,812 in excess of the expenditures. For the month of May, last year, the deficit was nearly $3,000,006. It has gone out of fashion to boast of never reading ads. Those who do not nowadays are inclined to keep quiet about it, as they would about any other personal shortcoming. . NOTHING
