One hardly knows whether to trust the weather man as yet.
After al!, that circus brought its full share of. incidents. Even to the crap ame.
Doubtless those Cleveland men got a good impression of Richmond, but they appear to have done so without
sin over-abundance of local help.
It would be just as well now to drop the Corey-Gilman incident. There is nothing connected with it
that is satisfying to sound American
morals.
Perhaps it was just as well that the Coiey-Gilman wedding principals shied at the ICth many predict that
'jio good can come from such an alii
Circe at best so that it would be fool
ish to take on a hoodoo.
"Dick cancels call for parlay in
Ohio." say the morning dispatches. It
is not to be wondered at when it was
found that Foraker was in danger of
beinsr thrown down in a clash with
the Taft forces.
Suggestion for a West side Friends
church is a good one. It would go a long way toward further identifying "Earlban! college with the life of the city, in which regard rapid advancement has been made. It has not been many years since there was little in common between the citizens and Earlbam, but that day has long passed and happily so, for interests are mutual.
ROOSE.
SLURRING PRESIDENT
VELT. As soon as the President has instructed all the State delegations for Taft or himself and elected Burton speaker of the House instead of Cannon, he will have leisure to abolish the Supreme Court and make a new Constitution. Indianapolis Star. The above suggestion from the Indianapolis Star, while meant to be a slur on President Roosevelt, offers a point worthy of the careful consideration of the people of this country. Suppose we read the above paragraph in this way: As soon as the President has again driven the forces of predatory wealth to cover and enabled Taft a jian who believes in and
practices the "square deal" to secure
the republican nomination for president, and has broken ths corporate hold exercised over the House by securing .the election of Burton as speaker instead of Cannon, he will then rest secure in the knowledge that in leaving the office of chief magistrate he is leaving behind him two men who will work together iu the cause of the people. The Star, however, by publishing such a paragraph as the above, clearly shows that It is not in favor of such men being retained after President Roosevelt leaves. As to that particular clause, "he will have leisure to abolish the Supreme Court and make a new Constitution," maybe if the Star subraitted this question to the people for answer it - would find that the Idea was rather popular. In view of some of the past decisions of the supreme court and the loopholes our present constitution seems to give, to hard pressed criminal . corporations and their corrupt managers.

GREAT RAILROAD FORESTRY
THE PENNSYLVANIA ROAD WILL PLANT 550,000 TREES. Conditions Demand That an Adequate Source for Ties be Secured. In order that the Pennsylvania
railroad may have a source of supply fbr crossties, the company will soon plant 550,000 trees near Mt. Union, Pa., which will be the largest rail
road forestry reserve in the world.
Some idea of the necessity of such
an extraordinary undertaking as this may be gathered from the fact that the Pennsylvania railroad system utilizes 5,009,000 new ties every year
and each of them costs 70 cents. In recent years ties have been getting
scarcer and scarcer and the Pennsylvania, has found it advisable to es
tablish forestries, that in future years the railroad may have plenty.
REFUSE SPECIAL RATES. The railroads have refused to grant
T. P. A. men special rates to the state convention at Anderson, giving
as their reason that excursion rates are now given all the time. T. P. A. members hardly know what to make of the refusal of the railroads to grant them rates when they have been granted each year before.

BUYS NEW LOCOMOTIVES. J. A. Ilaberkoru, general foreman for the Grand Rapids and Indiana, has gone to Pittsburg, where he will inspect several new locomotives which the' company has purchased. It is reported that these will be . placed in the passenger service during the coming summer. i WILL HURRY CONSTRUCTION. Railroad officials have been advised that during the months of June and July the car manufacturing concerns will turn over more cars to the railroads than ever before in a similar period of time. The activeness of the car manufacturers, is caused by the recent consultation between the heads of the various railroad systems. President McCrea of the Pennsylvania made th-; statement that his company would cancel a large per cent of the orders placed, unless haste was used. A large number of the
new Pennsylvania freight cars will be turned over to the local Pennsylvania
division, when they are completed
The majority, however, will remain in the Pittsburg district where the
car shortage is greater than any other part of the country at the present
time.
The car builders have issued the
statement tnat during the year of 1907 at least 200,000 new freight cars will be furnished the railroads of the country. A large per cent of these
have already been delivered IS IN FULL SWING.
The new freight tariff bureau at Pittsburg is in full swing and all work
for the entire Pennsylvania system is being done there. As yet no new tariffs for the Richmond division, from the central office have been issued.
WORKING ON A SCHEDULE. As yet the Pennsylvania has made no move toward the improvement of the C. I. & E., recently acquired, other than transferring the different operating departments to Pennsylvania offices. The local Pennsylvania freight office is working on a schedule of freight rates which will be inaugurated on the new road when it is completed. All the old employes are being retained by the "Pennsy" until a thorough readjustment has been made. G. W. Bartlett who served in the capacity of receiver for the road during the period of its most tempestuous career, will remain with the ioad until all the old company's affairs are adjusted, which it is said will be only a few months. HAVE NEW OUTFITS. Notwithstanding the fact that it was given out among local railroad men that new summer uniforms would not be donned until May 15, the entire local Pennsylvania station force is now darting around with natty new uniforms and white summer caps. The trainmen entering Richmond are also wearing the regulation summer outfit, practically all of which has but recently been received from east
ern tailors.
- PAINTING ALL SIGNALS. The semaphore signals r.nd switch stands along the C. C. & L. are being

GOING T0CALIF0RNIA Mr. and Mrs. Bert Novere Leave Thursday. ,
Mr. and Mrs. Bert Novere leave Thursday for a pleasure trip through California and Oregon. They will not return until the fall. Mr. Novere, who for some time was stage manager at the Gennett theatre, has been in ill health for several months and he is making this western trip to benefit
his condition. , .
JAMES HAYES IMPROVES He Is the Conductor Injured In G. R. & I. Wreck.
Conductor James Hayes, who was injured In the G. R. & I. wreck several weeks ago, is still confined to his home at Ft. Wayne. He is able to walk, but has not ventured outside the house. He is recovering rapidly
and will be able to resume his duties in the course of the next few weeks.
MUNCIE TEAM IS COMING. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY THE PORTLAND TEAM WILL PLAY AT ATHLETIC PARK SOME GOSSIP OF THE SPORT.
When Manager Jessup learned that the Cincinnati Muldoons had been parboiled 33 to 3 in an eight-inning game by a Muncie outfit, he remarked: "The game here next Sunday with the Muldoons is hereby cancelled." Negotiations were at once opened w ith the crack Muncie, Ind., team to show here in place of the Muldoons and it is very probable the locals will take on this team Sunday. The Muncies were a great attraction in Richmond in the past and they should be the same this year. Portland Team Coming. The games Thursday and Friday
with the Portland team should attract large crowds. The Portland team, like the locals, is a salaried team and said to be one of the fastest in the state. Horn will probably pitch the Thursday game and Rodenback will
be in the box, Friday. The Reds May Play Here.
Manager Jessup today learned that
the Cincinnati Reds were very anx
ious to secure exhibition games and that the team had two open dates in the schedule on June 3 and 4. The
Reds are now playing in the east and
at the present time are engaged in a
series with the New Yorks. Today Manager Jessup sent a telegram to Business Manager Frank Mancroft of
the Reds asking for an. exhibition
game in this city on Wednesday, June 4. It is practically certain that the game will be arranged and hundreds nf local fnns will turn out to get a
look at Hanlon's colt team, which seems to be about the fastest that has
renresented Cincinnati in recent
years. Baseball Gossip. Thomas Plummer, swattist and
prominent Marion resident, has failed
to make a putout or assist in the three games ' played at Athletic park this season for the simple reason that none
of the stingy batters on the visiting
teams have seen fit to lift the sphere
into his beat. Two weeks ago lorn
might have had a putout but T. Ritter who does picket duty in center, ran over and well it is no use reopening a closed incident. Plummer has more than earned his salt at the batting
end of the game.
After inspecting the giraffes at the
Bamura and Bailey circus, Jim Cameron informed the inquiring Mr. Rit
ter that he did not know what species of the animal kingdom they belonged
to, but that they were probably some
kind of a foreign grasshopper.
When Durham stung Mr. Butler,
Sunday, for a four-bagger, Roy Peck, who does a Lew Dockstader stunt for
the Barlow Minstrels during the snow
season, chewed through the wire
which holds the crowd back from the umpire.
The dinky stand used by the Giants
during their occupancy of Athletic park was conspicuous by its absence, Sunday. So was the wire backstop.
Stakes driven here and there gave an
idea to the crowd where the new grandstand will be located.
Red Ireton Sunday assumed his
new role as guardian of the official
water bucket. Red holds down this
position with becoming grace and ability. At the end of the game he
was able to account for every drop of water used.
Cunningham played a star fielding
game for the locals Sunday, accepting
tight chances without a wabble. He beat down line drives, scooped up
dinky bunts and ate alive all the fouls that came his way. Cunny was unfortunate at the bat, always hitting
directly at some Sox infielder or out fielder.
T. Ritter ran bases Sunday with the speed of a frightened chicken thief. The rabbit pulled off some clever
fielding stunts.

Workmen blasting rock for ballast
on the side of Turkey mountain, about five miles south of Tulsa on the Midland Valley, discovered what is believed will turn out to be one of the
largest caves in the country. Entering the mouth of the cave the party found curiosities in the'last stages of decoraposition. On the wall to the right near the entrance was transcribed "J. A. Cox, 1S4." Cox was the leader of a notorious band of outlaws in the early days of the territory, and it is thought that this cave was the lair, of his gang. Kansas City Journal.

Chancellor McCracken. of New York university, who started the movement a year ago which resulted in "reformed" football, is an enthusiastic lawn tennis player. This is about the only sport in which he Is interested. In the course of the college year he finds little time to get out on the
courts, but as soon as vacation begins he may be seen almost any fair morning wielding his racquet with a vigor that would be a credit to men many years his junior. The chancellor takes great pride in his game, aud always likes to have a strong player on the other side of the net. Two of his sons were guod athletes while in college.

Many Delusions Intimately Related t This Unfamiliar Law. There are two kinds of light waves emitted from all objects, color and white waves. Whenever a source of light, as the sun, strikes on object part of that light is absorbed and part reflected thrown back. The latter represents such object's "luminosity." The color blind are never blind to this form of light. A mirror reflects almost all the light that falls upon it. Polished silver reflects 92 per cent of perpendicular rays. Broken surfaces split up such light and so appear dark. The more luminous an object the more intense is Its effect upon the retina, just as two horns affect the ear more keenly than one. The more intense or stimulating a light the quicker is the retina exhausted. It becomes temporarily paralyzed in the cones of such a color. Look at the sun, then look away, and you will still see the sun, but its color appears a pale blue, which Is the farthest contrast to the yelloworange of the sun. It is the complementary color. The light of the sun Is so intense that it quicklj exhausts the yellow-orange cones, leaving those farthest from it (blue, the 'complementary" of yellow) least exhausted: hence this after-image of the sun looks blue, actually a pale greenish blue. A mother was sewing a scarlet gown held in the sunlight by the window. Turning to her child, playing oa the floor, she shrieked, believing it was dying. She saw no red in its face, which made It appear corpselike. Visions, witch making, religious hysteria, pseudo insanity and the attribution of supernatural power are intimately related to this unappreciated law of "after-images." Edward A. Ayers In Century.

Henry Hudson. Bej-ond the fact that Henry Hudson was English nothing is known of his birth. In 1C07 Hudson sailed from London in a tiny vessel the crew consisted of ten men and a boy to discover the Northwest passage. On this voyage the navigator passed the eightieth degree of latitude. Two years later Hudson sailed for North America aud discovered the Hudson river, up which he sailed 150 miles. In 1610 Hudson sailed in an English ship named the Discovery and discovered Hudson strait and Hudson bay, where he wintered. The crew mutinied and set Hudson, his son John and seven infirm sailors adrift In a boat. Nothing has ever since been heard of the great sailor who gave his name to New York's river.

Are we to have a light that shall drive out the electric light? Time only can tell. St. Nicholas. A Warrior Too. The wooden boards that had marked
the graves in a certain rural cemetery
rotted off and were raked up Iu the
spring cleaning. Consequently oa Memorial day when the delegation from the G. A. R. arrived with flags and appropriate floral decorations for

ing committee found Itself somewhat In doubt as to which grave belonged to Captain Blodgett and which to Hannah Ericson. The mistaken delegates heaped their offerings upon Hannah's last resting place and departed. That afternoon Ericson, the widower, drifted, with the rest of his world, to the cemetery. When ha saw tbe flag and the flowers above nannah the astonished Swede fell to chuckling joyously.

On reaching the field 1 dismounted and climbed over the fence to see what it was, and discovered that it was a stone, statue representing Caiu slaying Abel. It Is unique. Cain has one knee pressing Abel to the ground, and one arm uplifted ready to strike. The status must be hundreds of years old, and is supposed to be on the exact spot where th murder was committed.
