To the Editor of the Palladium: Dear Sir:--I noticed the attached article in your paper of a day or two ago. I suppose' there was no intention on your part to misrepresent the facts. You must simply haveoverlooked what the News printed last Friday. It is true that tho News did not have Mr. Watson's speech Thursday because lie did not prepare it beforehand and give us a copy as the other speakers did. and as we requested him to do; and he did riot speaK early enough, to ellow us to take the speech in shorthand and get it into the paper that afternoon. Tho News has no slightest objection to any criticism of its policy, but it docs" dfsntre to be" misrepresent ed; Very truly CHAS. R. WILLLVMS. Lucky and Unlucky Vegetables. Peas amj beans are very Important plants in folklore, and' there are many superstition's connected with them. Teas were favorite instruments for divination.; A pea pod with nine-peas T:as equal to a wishbone when placed above the door. In Northamptonshire It is accounted generally lucky to find nine peas in a pod, or kid. In Mecklenburg, Germany, it is believed that peas must be sown early onr Wedrieslay or Thursday or the birds will carry them off: If they are fed to hens, It la said that fowls will lay well. They must not! howerer, lie eaten during the Christmas holidays or until after Twelfth day". Beans were mysterious In antiquity: Pltoy says-they contain the souls of the- dead. The- Ramans used them in religious ceremonies. They were used in Greece as ballots, nd Pythagoras desired his disciples not to "love beana" that is, not Interfere with" politic. Our phrase "You t don't know beans" probably means 'yon are no politician, Ovid prescribes beans to expel evil spirits.Big reductions in Embroideries at KrioIIeriberg's Friday and Saturday, this week.

BLIND GIRL MAY BECOME

T New York. Jan. 2. Enthusiasm was created among tho society patronesses of the Industrial exhibit of the New York association for tho Blind by the singing of a girl almost blind at tho opening of the show now being held at the Blind Men's clubrooms, 118 East Fifty-ninth street. The sightless singer was Miss LillianGrant Robertson?o 480 'Pacific street. Brooklyn, daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth Robertson, and so great is her talent' that she is to be trained for the grand opera stage, regardless of the seemingly great obstacle of blindness. Aside from that' she has all the'glfts that fo-to make a prima donna. Her voice is a Wg and ber.utlful dramatic soprano, with a touch of pathos and mil GRIP HERt? Don'tSit in the draft. Sleep in a poorly ventilated room. Eat too much. Drink too much. These are tho rules that the people of Richmond must adopt at once to check the grip epidemic which is sweeping over all parts of the city and has laid many low in the last few weeks. Prominent physicians have asserted that grip is raging and they all agree on the warning "keep in the air If you want' to escape tho little influenza germ." "While no reports are being made FOUND A WAY To Be Clear of the Coffee' Troubles. i "Husband and myself both had the coffee habit and finally his stomach and kidneys got in such a bad condition that he was compelled to give up a good position that he had held for years. He was too sick to work. Ills skin was yellow, and I hardly think there was an organ in his body that was not affected. "I-told him I felt sure his sickness .was due to coffee and after some discussion he decided to five it up. "It was a struggle, because of the powerful habit. One day we heard about Postum and concluded to try it and then it was easy to eave off coffee. "His fearful headaches grew less clear, kidneys grew better until at last he was a new man altogether, as a re suit of leaving off coffee and taking up Postum. Then I began to drink it too. "Although I was never as bad off as my husband, I was always very nervous and never at any time very strong, only weighing 95 lbs. before I began to use Postum. Now I weigh 11-3 lbs. and can do as much work asanyone my size I think. "Many do not use Po&tum because they have not taken the trouble to make it right. I have successfullyfooled a great many persons who have drunk . It at my table. They would . ; remark, 'ion must buy a high grade pt coffee.' Ong young man who clerked in a grocery store was very enthusiastic about my "coffee." When I told him what it was. lie said, 'why I've sold Postum for four years but I had no idea it was like this. Think I'll drink Postum hereafter. Nam- given by Postum Co, Battle Creek; Mich. Read "The Road to in pTfgs. "TberVs" a Reajson."

When sho had finished her solo thcro was the usual dramatic moment's pause that marks real appreciation,' before the crash of applause broke forth, which set the blind girl bowing and smiling at the audience she could not see. Sho sang again and again; and was made to promise to sing at all sessions of tho Industrial exhibit to be held during the week. That means that she will be heard every after noon and evcning'.thiseelr, and many distinguished musicians and critics areJ being--called by thotr: friends to pass judgment on the "find."

JAPAN IS ANXIOUS TO PLEASE AMERICA

Emigration Memorandum Sent To the Embassy as Last Act of 1907. THE QUESTION IS DELICATE. STATE DEPARTMENT AT WASH- : INGTON QUIET AS TO NEGOTIATIONS IT IS CONDUCTING NOW WITH JAPANESE GOVERNMENT. Tokio, Jan. 2. The dispatch of the memorandum 011 the emigration question by the Foreign office. of the American embassy was the last official act of the Japanese government in the year 1907. This is taken to mean that tho government wishes to besin the year 190S uuder better auspices. In fact, this has been admitted by an official of the Japanese government, who said: "Wo have every reason to believe that tho details of our administration and future control of the emigration question will be satisfactory, to tho American government. " President Roosevelt wanted Janan to act promptly, and our memorandum is the result of much careful work and investigation. Whilo doubtless somo changes will bo made before the mat ter is finally disposed of, we are of the opinion that the last official act. of 1907 will make the dawn of 190S brighter in both countries." The memorandum lias been cabled to Washington, from which it i possi ble a counter suggestion will bo forth coming, but it is intimated that Japan thinks that the memorandum wilt form the basis whereon the two countries will be able to reach a final and satisfactory understanding. MORE OR LESS DELICATE. State Department is not Discussing Japanese Emigration Question. Washington, Jan. 2. Tho administration Is maintaining the strictest silence with regard to the negotiations It is conducting with Japan. Even the chairmen of the committees on foreign relatfona in congress are not acquainted with the terms of the suggestions recently forwarded to Japan for the restriction of Japanese c-mlgratin to the United States. News from Tokio today that the Japanese government has rejected some of the suggestions offered by Secretary Root "as incompatible with tho dignity of Japan" may lead to some sort of consideration of the whole subject on congress before many wreeks. COURTEOUS TREATMENT WANTED BY GIRLS Pretty Girl Leads Strike of Women Employes. Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 2. A slim, graceful girl, with flaming black eyes and a wealth of red brown hair, 29 years old, Tayiva Leyes, is one of -the most picturesque figures in local labor circles, and as leader of the six weeks' strike of 150 girls the Blerberman Brothers wrapper factory, where a strike has been ifr force, she has become as well a potent factor. "The' strike", she said, "has special significance for the working people of Philadelphia, because it is the first time that women have ever undertaken such thing hem Then, too, it is unusual, in that it is not a strike for higher wages, nor shorter hnnra though the girls were only makingrrom p to ?a a week, working from 7 in the morning until 6 at night It is a strike for more courteous treatment at the hands of the foremen."

FEEBLE MINDED HIGHER WAGES Des Moines, Jau. 2. One hundred and fifty children in the (lien wood hospital for the Feeble Minded struck this week for an increase in wages of from 25 cents to CO cents per month, and they got It. The strike started while John Cownic, chairman of the board of control, was on a visit to the slate hospital at Glen-wood. Tho trouble arose when on of the stokers in the engine room refustni to work. He: was a husky youth of eighteen, and his fellow workers quit in sympathy, lie demanded an increase In wages from 25 to 50 cents per month. The state makes the allowance of money to each irrmate in order to keep When Imbrrllai Were First Vaed. , Umbrellas are of great antio'iity. Among the Greeks they Were m marts of elevated rank, and one is seen on a Hamilton vase in the hands of a princess. We find the umbrella figured upon the ruins of Persepolis. and the Romans carried it at the theater to keep off the sun. Yet Coryate, the traveler! in 1611 notices the umbrellas of Italy as rarities. These and other umbrellas are only described1 for keep ing off the sun, which may be explained by the' comparative scarcity of rain In the above countries. The frequency of rain in othec lands led to their being used for a very different purpose. Jonas llanway is described to have been the first to walk the streets of Ixmdon with an umbrella over his head, which he had probably used in his travels- in the east And in 177S one John Macdonald, a footman, was ridiculed for carrying In; the- street an umbrella which he had brought from Spaiu. However, aa he tells us, he-persisted for three months in carrying? his umbrella, till people took no further notice of the novelty. Doars and Fleas. I have tried all sorts of soaps and solutions for killing fleas on dogs, with the result that the dogs die first. Now, fleas are as much a part of a dog as ticks are of a cow. But, of course, there must not be too many fleas on the" fim: lly pet Just enough to keep it well tickled and to prevent it from becoming too phlegmatic. There seems to be but' one cure, and it comes from the land" of fleas India: The Hindoos use a erode oil emulsion, which consists of 80 per cent of crude petroleum mixed with 20 per cent of whale oil soap. This combination forms a jelly which mixes freely' with water: A 3 per cent solution is used. At 10 per cent it kills fleas w-ith perfect certainty. Any animal washed-with it will be relieved of the insects. It can be applied to walls, ceilings' and" floors by means of a gar-, den sprayer. .Sew York Press.

But tho stoker insisted that twenty-five cents per month wasn't quite enough for a ; big fellow like him. especially as Inworked harder than the other inmates. Besides, he told the chairman of tho board when the latter went to expostulate with him, that he hud just bought a dollar watch on the easy payment plan and- that his allowance wouldn't pay for his candy required during the mouth. After threatening-a riot and all sorts of trouble, another compromise was reached, the chairman agreeing to allow an increase of five cents a month for the purchase of candy.
