DO NOT SEE THE IDEA.

"IF FORMER GOVERNOR IS OUT, WHY DOES HE CIRCULATE THIS MATERIAL" MANY PEOPLE ARE ASKING. Louisville. Ky., March 22. When former Governor J. C. W. Beckham declared in his recent speech at Frankfort that he never again expected to seek an office at the hands of the people of Kentucky, he did not say that he never expected to take any further interest in politics, nor did he declare that he would turn down any office if it were offered him. The belief of many politicians that Beckham is to take an exceedingly active interest in politics is verified by the statement, made by Democrats close to Beckham, that between 200,000 and $250,000 copies of the former Governor's Frankfort speech were mailed to Democrats throuphout the commonwealth. It is understood that the work was directed by Percy Haly, the Governor's trusted friend, who has in his possession the name and address of every Democratic voter in the state. Haly is a tireless and able politician. If Beckham is out of politics entirely it is difficult for the politicians to see why his speeches should fie sent broadcast through the commonwealth at this time, with the state convention only a few weeks off. There is also a persistent rumor emanating from friends of Beckham that opposition may be given to National Committeeman Urey Woodson. A strong Beckham man recently made the statement that, although Woodson's paper supported Beckham for United States Senator, the National Committeeman never offered his services to Beckham during the long-drawn-out senatorial contest, but was the first man to appear on the scene at Frankfort after W. O. Bradley's election. PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS. PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to cure any case of Itching, Blind, Bleeding or Protruding Piles in 6 to 14 days or money refunded. oOc. MftJ.

After leaving Quebec, this fleet will cruise along. the Canadian coast, visiting several places. ITALIAN GOVERNMENT DISCOURAGES NATIVES Does Not Want Them to Come To America. Naples, March 28. Efforts are being made by the Italian government to discourage emigration of workingmen to the United States. The crisis in the United States last fall was a good thing for Italy. The Italian government had become alarmed at the steady outgo of its men to America and the authorities were much pleased when the tide turned the other way last fall, and many Italians returned to their fatherland. It is the desire of the government to discourage emigration and the stories told by the men who have returned recently have tended to aid the government in its plans. Pawnbrokers in Fekin having refused to reduce their 50 per cent rate of interest, the municipal board has opened official pawnshops,, cnarging only 15 per cent.

Dr. GRAEME HAMMOND. Alienists are apt to make remarkable discoveries, all of which do not pan out. The latest discovery along these lines is that of Dr. Graeme Hammond who is a noted specialist in brain troubles. Dr. Hammond declares that it is possible to stamp out crime by use of X-ray. It remains to be seen whether or not his discovery will work in practice. AIMS 10 PREVENT .GREAT FIRE HORRORS Effective Arm of Red Cross Is Being Organized. New York, March 2S. To help prevent such disasters as the Collinwood school fire is the object of a trained army which is now being organized throughout this State. To teach ordinary care and forethought for the prevention of accident and what to do in moments of danger to prevent injury or loss of life," is one of the main purposes of the Grand Legion of the Red Cross, in which representative young men in every community are to be enrolled. With the lesson of the Cleveland fire in mind, every effort' is beins made by the organizers of this movement here today to place its services before the people of the State as quickly as possible. Four or more legions, each with four relief columns, sixteen detachments, and sixty-four squads, will compose the legion, which is to be counted upon as an effective arm of the American National Red Cross. SHARPENING A PENCIL. In This Act. It In Snid. Ton May Read a Man's Character. No woman should marry a man till she has seeu him sharpen a lead pencil. She can tell by the way he does it whether he is suited to her or not. Here are a few infallible rules for her guidance in tln matter: The man who holds the point toward him and close up against his shirt front is slow and likes to have secrets. He is the kind of man who when the dearest girl in the world rinds out that there are "others' and asks him who they are and what he means by calling on them will assume an air of excessive dignity. The man who holds the pencil out at arm's length and whittles away at 1t, hit or miss, is impulsive, jolly, good natured and geuerous. He who leaves a blunt poiut is dull and plodding and will never amount to much. He is really good hearted, but finds his chief pleasure In the commonplace things of life. He who sharpens his pencil an inch or more from the point is hih strung and imaginative and subject to exuberant flights of fancy. He will always be seeking to mount upward and accomplish things iu the higher regions of business and art. and his wife's greatest trouble will be to hold him down to earth and prevent his flying off altogether on a tangent. The man who sharpens his pencil all around smoothly and evenly, as though it were planed off in au automatic sharpener, is systematic and slow to anger, but he is so uudeviating from a fixed principle that he would drive a woman with a sensitive temperament to distraction in less than six months. On the contrary, he who jumps ir and leaves the sharpened wood as jagged as saw teeth around the top has a nasty temper and will spank the baby on the slightest provocation. There are certain women who can manage that kind of man beautifully, however, and ifhe gets a wife with a calm, persuasive eye ha will come down from his high horse in a few miuufes and be as meek as a lamb. The man who doesn't stop to polish the poiut of lead once the wood is cut away has a streak of coarseness in his nature. He who shaves off the lead till the point is like a needle Is refined, delicate and sensitive. He will not be likely to accomplish so much as his more common brother, but he will never shock you and is without doubt a good man to tie to. New York Press. It is a pleasing custom in the French Senate to have the oldest member preside at the opening of the annual session. The senator now entitled to that honor is M. Porriquet, ninety-two years old and paralyzed. He was recently equal t the occasion, for he had himself carried in a chair to the' senate and to the platform, where he presided acceptably. Orders have been posted in the shops of the Pennsylvania railway system prohibiting swearing among the men while at work. The penalty will be an enforced vacation.

GIVES TOO MUCH POWER.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WOULD HAVE MORE THAN THE COURTS AND THIS IS THE THING WHICH IS NOT DESIRED. Washington, March 28. Something is destined to happen to the Hepburn bill, which was introduced last week and provides for a reconstruction of the Sherman anti-trust law in accordance with the president's ideas, before it is reported to the house for passage. The bill is now before the committee on judiciary, some of whose members have decided ideas upon constitutional matters and upon the tendency of concentrating further power in the hands of the national administration, aside from the question of who is president. These men doubt the advisability of extending the authority of the administration over industrial corporations which do an interstate business. They take the position that the Hepburn bill would give to the Federal government altogether too much power over the business of the country and deprive the courts of the determination of whether a combination is actually in restraint of trade and violation of the Sherman antitrust law. They prefer not to curtail the jurisdiction of the courts in this respect, and it. is their purpose to seek to modify the Hepburn bill so that it will not be readily recognized by those who participated in drafting it. CURTAIL OUTPUT OR CUT WAGES This Action Decided Upon by Cotton Manufacturers. Mobile, March 28 The Alabama Cotton Manufacturers' Association has decided not to curtail the output nor to cut wages. Its president says that Alabama mill men consider themselves in much better condition than are the New England manufacturers.

JAP EXCLUSION BILL No Action Will Be Taken by The Present Congress On Measure. AN AGREEMENT IS MADE. Washington, March 2S. A tentative agreement, has been reached between the house of representatives delegation from the Pacific coast and the house committee on foreign affairs, by which a program has been mapped out to postpone action on the Japanese exclusion bill until the next session of congress. The foreign affairs committee has told the Pacific coast men that, while it is satisfied the bill should be passed, it prefers to give ample time for a test of the executive steps that have been taken to solve the Japanese immigration problem. The coast men have argued that by next December the whole country will see that the president's arrangement with Japan is effective. The committee is reported to be in such a frame of mind on the subject that it will report the bill for passage next session provided there is evidence that the administration's arrangement has been ineffective.

The Premier Diamond Mining Co. has definitely refused to renew its agreement with the syndicate and will market its own output after this month. The Transvaal government, which is entitled to 60 per cent, of the company's output, was responsible for the refusal. A pricecutting war with the De Beers Company is now expected. HANNAH MORE. The Vnfortanute Lev Story of a T"a inoui DiiKlih Writer. Hannah M'uv was burn on Feb. 2. 174., at Stiipleion, iu Gloucestershire, ! her father bring the master of a 1 j school in the neighborhood. Iu 17.17 1 her eldest sister, Mary, who was then 1 twenty-one, with her sifters Elizabeth and Sarah, opened a ladies' school in Trinity street. Bristol, taking Hannah and l;cr yountier sister, Patty, who were then respectively twelve and ten years of nire. as pupils. The school was a great success, and Hannah became a highly cultivated girl. Somewhere about the year 1707 she made the acquaintance of a Mr. Turner of Belmont. He was a wealthy bachelor, considerably older than herself and the owner of a lino estate near Flax Kourtou. in Somersetshire. She is described as being at this time an exceedingly pretty girl, with delicate features and beautiful eyes. These characteristics she retained to the end of her life, as the portrait of her by Pickersglll in the national portrait gallery clearly shows. She became a constant visitor at Belmont and in due course of time . received from Mr. Turner a proposal ( of marriage, which she accepted. She I withdrew from her connection with the school and made all peparatious for her wedding. This, however, never took place. Three times was the day fixed and as often for some unintelligible reason postponed by Mr. Turner. His affection for her seems to have been sincere, but he was a man of a curious and rather gloomy disposition, and his strange conduct may possibly Ik? referred to some mental perversity. At last her friends interfered and insisted on the engagement being broken off. Mr. Turner was very anxious to make a settlement upon her. and, though for some time she declined to entertain the proposal, she was finally persuaded by Sir James Stonehouse to accept an annuity of 200 a year. This unfortunate affair did not interfere with the friendship and respect which Mr. Turner continued to feel for her, and at his death he left her a legacy of 1,000. But It probably left its mark on her, and. though she subsequently received two offers of marriage, she declined them both. New York Tribune. SOME FIRST OCCASIONS.

HAS BEEN A PET HOBBY.

BELIEVES COTTON EXCHANGES INIQUITOUS INSTITUTIONS DESIGNED TO ROB COTTON GROWERS OF PROFITS OF INDUSTRY. Washington, March 28. Representative Burleson of Texas is leading a second attack upon the men who gamble in cotton. This has been a pet hobby of Mr. Burleson's for many years and each session he has introduced a bill to do away with speculation in this staple product of the South. Burleson openly boasts that his object is to close up the cotton exchanges. He thinks they are iniquitous institutions designed to rob the hard-working cotton growers of the profits of their industry. The Burleson bill makes it unlawful for any person or association to send or to receive by mail, telegraph or telephone, any message relating to a contract, for future delivery of cotton without intending that thr cotton so contracted for shall be actually deUvred or received. Punishment by fines and imprisonment are provided for violation of the proposed law. There is also a prohibition against the sending by any of these agencies of any notes, accounts or records of the transaction of any produce exchange covering contracts for future deliveries. NEW PROBLEM CONCERNING POLICY Question Comes Up in Regard To Imported Foods. Washington, March 2S. The question regarding the use of sulphate of copper in imported foods, which is being debated at the department of agriculture and by the cabinet officers who have charge of the pure food law is raising a new problem concerning policy in administration. Heretofore in considering questions of preservatives and coloring matters the government has had to do solely with substances used both in the United States and abroad. Benzoate of soda, for instance, is used far more largely here ti.nn in foreign countries, and the same is true of some of the coloring substances which have been put under the ban. But in the case of sulphate of copper a peculiar situation exists. American manufacturers and canners do not seem to care what is done with reference to the use of this dye. They (!o not employ it to any extent and the only persons affected are the importing grocers, who bring in goods in which it occurs, chiefly from France. This raises in acute form the issue whether we intend to be more or less strict with reference to our domestic products than with regard to those produced abroad. WISHES TO GET RID OF AMERICAN SILVER Canadian Government Will Collect and Deport It. Ottawa, March "S. The Canadian banks at the request of the Dominion government, will assist in a plan to collect and deport American silver from that country. If you like a large cigar, get a Pathfinder 5 cents. BUILDS AIRSHIPS War Department Likes Idea of Balloon Construction. Paris, March 28. The French War Department is actively pushing the construction of the new dirigfble La Republique, and is expecting to have this new aerial warship ready next May. The 1908 budget includes the construction of two dirigibles of like site, and when these are completed, the Government will undertake to build several larger airships of nearly twice the size. General Porfirio Diaz has been president of Mexico for twenty-seven years.
