THE HOSPITAL QUESTION. When Daniel G. RcitS thought enough of his home city to relieve its distress in the way of inadquate hospital accomodations fand provided a site, and built a magnificent hospital which is the equal of any in ,the State-and perhaps, stands at the head,, everybody understood thoroujh11 that the institution was a gift to the reople of Richmond. That it was to bskept under he direct management of a board of trustees which should not have relation with the city government was also generally known for one of the things that Mr. Reid desired was that the institution should not be made a political football. It Is hardly just to ask a man who hasx given Richmond such a magnificent institution to support it and there Is every reason why the city of Richmond should do so. The hospital Is for the people and the people are .:e city.

The Indiana Democratic committee has decided that Bryan shall come, to this state for a' few speeches In October. Realizing that the - Democratic ranks are badly shot to pieces already. Chairman O'Brien and Tom Taggart can't see how Bryan can do any great harm. And then, too, it will give Tom some prestige with Bryan in the matter of retaining his lofty seat as National chairman. '

As yet Mr. Bryan has taken no stand on the Cuban uprising. He is waiting to see definitely what the Republican administration will do and will then "knock" the action and advocate the. opposite idea. '

President Palma of Cuba is also one of the executives 'ho probably is ready to announce that he will not try for a third term.

TO THE POINT Xenla, O., voted wet under the Beal law by 174 majority. Voted dry two years ago and four years ago. Grant Waters, wanted at Huntington, W. Va for the alleged murder of William Crocker in August, 1905, waa arrested at Lexington, Ky. During a squall a rowboat containing two men and two women was swamped in Maumee bay. James Howes, Mrs. Kate Carlin and Mrs. Leslie Watson of Toledo drowned. Bodies of Mrs. Mary Williams, 40, and Samuel Jones, 18. were found on a bed in an Indianapolis hotel. Death was due to asphyxiation. Police officers think it was a love affair and premeditated suicide.

ROOSEVELT WANTS EVERY CITI

ZEN . TO FEEL THAT UNIFORM OF SOLDIERS IS A BADGE OF HONOR.

Oyster Bay, K. Y., Sept. 24.-Presi-dent Roosevelt made ' public the following letter, which he has sent to Rear Admiral Thomas, who is reported to be paying half thelexpenses of a suit for $300 damages brought by Chief Yeoman F. J. Buenzle against the Newport Amusement company of Newport on the ground that he was excluded from a dance hall while in uniform: . T enclose $100 to be used in that suit, which, thanks to you, has 'been eo wisely undertaken, to test the legality of excluding any man from any public place of entertainment because he wears the United States uniform. I feel thatit is the duty of every good citizen to endeavor in every shape and ray to make it plain that he regards uniform of the United States army and aavy, Justus much as when worn by an blister!" man as when jvorn by an ouiTr n.t r -bMr of honor, and

ist party of Russian Poland, in the

course of a speech before the national

.convention of German Socialists here

said: T come? from the land of the

bloodiest measures against the people. Let me tell you what we have done since the declaration of martial law at Warsaw in August.,' .1905. The masses in thecity and the country

are organized; we havft freedom of

the press never before known, and the

boys sell our papers in the streets. It

was a rare thing before the declara

tion of martial law for a private person to have arms. Today thousands are armed. We have purged the po

lice of their worst elements. We have

laid the foundations for a universal arming' of the people. We have gone still further; we have made a beginning by organizing the soldiers by

whole regiments to stand by our side BOY UF EIGHT
