ASKS ABOUT ITS TITLE. THINKS THAT IT MIGHT BEEN SIXTEEN TO ONEAN TALKS ABOUT HIS DIDACY. HAVE BRY-CAIM-New York, Oct. 20. Alton B. Parker, former democratic candidate for president, said that he had seen W. J. Bryan's statement in Schenectady that when. In congress Mr. Bryan advocated a law to protect depositors from exactly such conditions as occurred ir Kew York during the past few days. Commenting thereon, he said: "How glorious it is to be a heavenlorn financial genius! What a pity congress could not have appreciated the wonderful advantages of such a law. Had they appreciated it, we would not have needed yesterday the patriotism of J. Pierpont Morgan that prompted him to throw twenty-seven millions into the malestrom at a critical moment; the twenty-five millions of the government; the ten millions of Rockefeller and the money and strenuous labor of public spirited and honest bankers and business men, who strove mightily to save business generally, and therefore every citizen from ultimate injury. "I am sorry that he did not mention the title of the bill. In the absence of specifications, there will be those who will think that its title may have been '10 to 1.' " BRYAN ANNOUNCES HIMSELF. His Candidacy Will Not Depend on The Republicans. Kingston, N. Y.. Oct. 20.-W. J. Brypn declared that his decision whether to announce himself a candidate for the democratic nomination for president will not depend upon the choice of the republicans. Mr. Bryan authorized the following statement: "Mr. Bryan's decision as to being a candidate will not depend on who the republican candidate is. The question will be considered entirely from the standpoint of democratic principles and democratic advancement." .r' Atmospherio Weight. At the sea level, with the barometer marking 30 inches and the thermometer 82 degrees F., a cubic foot of pure dry air weighs about 505 grains troy. The weight of a cubic foot of water vapor under the same conditions is only 852 grains. ,Wheu vapor is mixed with dry air, therefore, the resulting compound Is lighter that is to say, damp air Is lighter than dry air. In stormy weather the air is lighter than it is in fair weather and not heavier, as many persons suppose. When smoke hangs about the surface of the earth, It shows that the air is lighter than the smoke. When the air is dry, it is heavier than the smoke, and the ;

Watch Jewels. Each watch jewel is shaped to a circle and bored through the center, each boring being just a little less than the diameter of the pinion used In the factory where it is finally to be placed in the upper or lower plate of a watch. Before the jewel gets to the setter it has been put into a lathe and by means of a minute steel point covered with diamond dust and oil the center has been enlarged to fit the steel pinions which shall be housed in it In the hands of the setter the cylinder is put into a lathe. With a moistened finger the jewel is picked up and placed in Bide the cylinder as it rests on the tip ; of the revolving lathe shaft. With a j rointed tool the setter presses against ) the revolving cylinder edge, forcing the soft metal to overlap and close upon the sapphire or ruby till it is imbedded firmly in the metal cushion. Then a pressure upon a follower at the other end of the lathe brings a cutter to bear upon the metal circumference, turning It to the exact size of the jewel hole in the plate of the watch, with the hole in the center of the jewel exactly in the center of the metal setting. New York Times. This Serpent Out of the Hedge. When a mau doth not directly or expressly charge his neighbor with faults, bat yet so speaketh that he is understood or reasonably presumed to do it. this is a very cunning and very mischievous way of slandering, for therein the skulking calumniator keepetn a reserve for himself and cutteth off from the person concerned the means of defense. If he goeth to clear himself from the matter of such aspersions, "What need." saith this insidious speaker, "of that? Must I needs mean you? Did I name you? Why do you then assume it to yourself? Do you not prejudge yourself guilty? I did not, but your own conscience, it seem eth. doth accuse you. You are so jealous and suspicious as persons overwise or guilty use to be."

BIG TOM SHARKEY WAS ID Stopped Here on His Way West to Escape Traveling After Night. AFTER FIGHT WITH BURNS. SHARKEY DOES NOT LIKE TALK THAT HE IS A "HAS BEEN" AND WILL MAKE EFFORT TO DISPROVE IT. Big Tom Sharkey, the prize fighter, placidly sauntered into the Arlington hotel Friday evening. He registered "John E. Hanley, N. Y. C." but while so doing, whispered in the clerk's eat that that was not the name he generally traveled under, but that he was Tom Sharkey, the prize fighter. The clerk became nervous as he checked the visitor, and said: "What, you aren't the big pug?" "Yes. I'm the man," replied Sharkey. "Well, I'll be doggonned. I thought you must be something of the kind for j that big chest of yours surely indicates physical training." Here Sharkey put on a little steam and a pouter pigeon could not have done better. On His Way West. Sharkey came from Cincinnati Frid;iv pvpnin? iinrt is on his wav tn San FrincIsco wiere he hopes to arrange Richmond over night, that he could get a good rest. He is a big man, almost six feet in height and weighs close to one hundred and ninety pounds. Sharkey's face is scarred, gifciug evidence of his many historic ring battles. He wears a large dia mond ring and a stud of abnormal pro-' portions. He was dressed neatly, however, and his apparel did not give any special indication of his calling. He Is a geniai, good fellow and soon ! had a large circle of admiring people around him. The bell hops in openeyed wonder viewed Sharkey from a distance, and one was heard to say, "Gosh he's a whopper." Hoping to Win. When approached this morning. Sharkey said that he fioped to win the big battle against Burns. He admitted however, that he would have to make the light of his life to register a victory, but felt equal to the task. That Sharkey is "a has been" was stoutly denied by him this morning, when he said: "Some of the prize ring followers throughout the country seem to have lost confidence in my punch, but I will regain their fav0r by showing them that T am Kt, a nnf, man in th when I meet Burns. My long training on Long Island put me in excellent condition physically. I have been sticking to the straight and narrow In the past few years. I don't fancy this 'down and out' proposition. No, not me." Sharkey, it is asserted, has saved a greater part of his earnings in the fight ring. He left Richmond today for San Francisco. .

The Franklin team went through fast signal practice Friday afternoon. The work was much faster than in the earlier part of the week and the general outlook was encouraging. Coach Jones gave out the following statement: "We will not be able to put our strongest lineup against Earlham Saturday. One or two of our best line men will be unable to play, but nevertheless I expect a victory. At any rate Earlham will not run up a score anything like what it did last year." The interest in the game here is intense and the largest crowd of the season will probably be waiting in Goodell Field when play is called. Practically the entire student body is expected to turn out and deliver some of the new yells which have been practiced this week. HIGH SCHOOL TEAM PLAYS AT GREENVILLE Is Hoping for a Victory Over Ohio Lads. REASONS FOR THE HOPE. The high school football team left this morning for Greenville, where they hope to a certain extent to re trieve the fortunes of the two previous Saturdays. Allison and Spangler will both play today and Karns, who has been troubled with an injured hand, will probably be able to play the entire game. On this account there is every !hope of success.

It is the plan of the manager, Miss Ruth Mott, that the best players out of four games, be selected to play curtain raisers to the boys' game. Miss Mott expects to get several out-of-town games. EARLHAM TEAM LEAVES FOH BAPTIST SCHOOL Is in Death Struggle With Franklin College. IS HOPING TO WIN OUT. Sixteen men, members of the Earlham varsity football squad, left Richmond this morning at 7:25 o'clock for Franklin, Ind., where Earlham is battling with Franklin college this afternoon. The men were optimistic as to the result of the game although they expected it to be one of the hardest battles of the year. Franklin held Notre Dame to a low score and tied DePauw University in recent games and therefore the Earlham squad was led to believe the game would be a tight one. Coach Vail thought his warriors would win "hands down." ATHLETIC SPIRIT AT EARLHAM VERY GOOD Such Is the Declaration of Prof. Trueblood. ACTIVITY IN MANY LINES. Professor E. P. Trueblood, who for many years has been connected with athletics at Earlham college, takes exception to the statement ttat has been made that there is no athletic spirit at the Quaker school. He says hat the entire college is participating in some sort of athletic sport and this in many cases Interferes with attendance at the varsity games. A large squad of men is playing basket ball preparatory to the opening of the regular college season. The girls, seventy-five in number, are enrolled in the regular gymnasium classes. A large number of men are participating in the cross country runs and other outdoor sports. There is a better athletic spirit at Earlham college now than there ever has been, is me assertion that is freely made. The Busy Merrimac River.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Right Handed and Left Legged. Most people would think that as man Is, with very few exceptions, "right handed" he would be at the same time "right legged." But this is not the case. Almost every right handed man uses his left leg more than his right. For instance, most people find it much more natural to go around circles to the right than to the left. That is because they start with the left leg. Being stronger, it is more readily brought into action, and It is on this account that bodies of soldiery always start to march with the left foot. Almost all courses for foot races are made out for running to the right, and dancers will indorse the statement that the majority of movements are far more easily executed In that direction. The left foot is the one that is placed in the stirrup for mounting a horse, and in jumping it is from the left foot that the athlete "takes off." Thus It will be seen, as a general rule, "right handed" people are "left legged." Leaving Richmond 11:15 p. m. via C., C. & L. lands you In Chicago at 7:00 a, m. Through sleepers and coaches.

Will Make Changes Of Benefit to the Jobbers And Shippers. STATEMENT BY H. M. HALL GENERAL FREIGHT AGENT FITZGERALD VISITED RICHMOND AND HELD A CONSULTATION WITH HAAS. Jobbers and shippers in Richmond, who for the past several months have been embarrassed in shipping their products to towns along the C, C. & L railroad, owing to poor local shipping facilities, will not have to tolerate, such service in the future, according to the information received today from H. M. Hall, division freight agent for the road. A new regular freight schedule has been adopted by the system and this schedule will be maintained notwithstanding the hardship it works, with other features of the freight service, according to the statement of Mr. Hall. Previous to the request of E. M. Haas, secretary of the local Commercial club, for a change in conditions, local Jobbers and shippers, who have spent considerable money in nearby towns along the C, C. & L., to establish their trade, almost lost it because only irregular shipments could be made. In some instances it took an entire weetc to ship a consignment of goods to a town within thirty miles of Richmond. Promises a Change. General Freight Agent William Fitzgerald, of Chicago, came to Richmond some time ago, and after consultation with Mr. Haas promised a change in ' conditions. The regular trains in-1 stalled this week will greatly aid con-1 ditions and local jobDers are happy, as prompt shipments to their customers ; can be guaranteed. To inaugurate a permanent local j freight schedule the C, C. & L. has had to place its through freight business from Chicago to Cincinnati, on almost any kind of a schedule, all local j freights out of Richmond receiving the J first attention of the company and the right of way. in preference to the through freight trains. It Is thought that when the local freight yards are permanently established in Richmond, still better service will be given Richmond shiDDers over the C, C. & L. NOTICE. Bring your Coffee signatures.

FANTASTIC AND RIDICULOUS.

In Spain at One Time the Appellations Apptied to the King Became So Servile That Philip III. Suppressed Them Caesar and the Title "Demigod." Shenstone in his quaint essay on "Adventure," printed with long a's in the year 1S02. says. "It is a very convenient piece of knowledge for a person upon a Journey to know the compe'.ia'.ions with which it ia proper to addtVfS thos he happens to meet by the war." The author found himself well or Id usei lu proportion as he happened or not to suit his salutations to people's ideas of their own rank. "It may not be imprudent." he says, "to accost a passenger with a title superior to what Le may appear to claim. Tina will seMcmi fail to diffuse a wonderful alacrity in his countenance and be perhaps a method of securiug you from any mistake of greater importance. 1 was led into these observations." he remarks, "by some solicitudes 1 lately underwent on account of my ignorance in these eculiaritle. Being ttomewhat more versed in book than I can pretend to be In the ordera of meu, it was my fortune to undertake a journey which I was to perform by means of inquiries." After enumerating the mishaps that befell him on account of misplacing the title "friend," "honest friend." "honest mau," "dame," "madam." "air," "sweetheart." etc., he says naively that ha was within a foot of rushing down n precipice by calling another "for sooth." "When you reflect upon this subject," he continues, addressing the public of his day as a sympathetic friend, "learn to be wise from others' barm and do not forget to observe decorum on every occasion. In the meantime you may if you please consider the vast importance of superior titles when there is no one so inconsiderable but there ia also a mind it can influence." The Princess Elizabeth in an undated letter from "Hatfllde" sends by request her picture to Queen Mary and concludes the carefully worded epistle with: "And thus I will (trobllng your maiestie I fere) end with my most humble tbankes, beseching God long to preserve you to his honor, to your consort, to the realme's profit and to my joy. Your Malestle's most humble sister and seruante." St. Foix tells na, says tho elder Disraeli, that kings were usually addressed by the titles of most illustrious, your serenity or your grace. The appellation of your majesty was established by that Tiberius of France. Louis XVI., whose manners were of the most sordid nature. So distinct were once the titles of highness and excellence that when Don Juan, brother of Thlllp II., was permitted to take up the latter and the city of Granada saluted him as your highness it occasloned such serious Jealousies at court that had he persisted in it he would have been condemned for treason. Until the reign of Constantlne the prefix illustrious belonged only to those who had made a splendid reputation in arms or In letters. In Spain the affectation of titles grew to Buch a degree that Thlllp III. published an act which forbade servile and ridiculous attributes, reducing them to the simple "the king our lord." Ferdinand and Isabella were highnesses only. Francis I, who styled himself the first gentleman in his kingdom, saluted Henry VIIL as your majesty. Ancient Portuguese writera givs fantastic accounts of the kingdom of Monomotapa, "a native African kingdom famous for its gold mines, lying In the lower Zambezi basin and chiefly In the present Masbonaland. The king of this region is surrounded by musicians and poets, who thrive in his atmosphere and who adulate him by such refined flatteries as the lord of the sun and moon, great magician and great thief. "The king of Persia is called 'branch of honor, mirror of virtue, rose of delight His majesty of Ava is called God and in bis correspondence with royalty styles himself king of kings and insists upon being obeyed, as he attends to the preservation of animals an ambiguous conclusion, to whlcb foreign royalty might reasonably object, ne is also regulator of the seasons, the absolute master of the ebb and flow of the sea. brother to the sun and king of the four and twenty umbrellas. To mark his dignity the four and twenty useful and often plebeian articles are always carried before the august monarch. "The most striking titles of the king of Achem are 'sovereign of the universe, whose body is as luminous as the sun, whom God created to be as accomplished as the moon at bcr plenitude, whose eye glitters like the northern star; a king as spiritual as a ball is round, who when be rises shades all his people." In the age of Angnstulus your eternity" and "your perpetuity" were not unusual titles. A law of Theodore the Great begins. "If any magistrate, after having concluded a public work, put bis name rather than that of 'our perpetuity. let him be adjudged guilty of high treason." When Caesar bad conquered Rome and was put to dine with the gods be had the good taste to Insist on the removal of his new" title, "demigod," from bis status , at tbs capital. Out of Sight. "Out of sight, out of mind." Is an old saying which applies with special force to a sore, burn or wound that's been treated with Bucklen's Arnica Salve. It's out of sight, out of mind and out of existence. Piles too and chilblains disappear under its healing Influence. Guaranteed by A. C Luken & Co., Druggist. 25c .
