The suggestion has been made that inasmuch as the nomination of Secretary Taft for president Is practically assured, it would be an excellent thing for the republican ticket if Theodore Roosevelt were nominated for second place on, the ticket. There is no reason 'why this should not be done. President Roosevelt has flat footedly refused to accept another nomination for president although he could have had It -without the least trouble but he haa not refused to accept second place on the ticket. As the nominee for vice president Roosevelt would add a strength to the ticket that would carry the republican party irresistibly to the greatest victory it has ever won at the polls. Roosevelt, by his unswerving loyalty to the Interests of the common people, has so endeared himself to his fellow countrymen that no matter what their political faith may be, they are first, last and all the time for him. There is no doubt that Taft as the nominee of the party, would be the next, president. However, he could never command the great following that is backing .President Roosevelt, as could Roosevelt himself. Taft. while he is known to be heart and soul in favor of the square deal policies of the president, can not be expected to command the same strength as Roosevelt can as the originator of these policies. Of course, some might claim that it would be too much of a come down for Roosevelt to accept second place on the ticket which he has represented for seven years as president. On second thought, however, these people will see that President Roosevelt could do so without in the least losing any dignity by the act. As vice-president he would be the presiding officer of the senate that stronghold so firmly held by the special interests. Roosevelt Is interested in seeing his policies continued. As the originator of them he ought to feel no hesitancy in lending all the strength to the ticket of his party that he can, even though it require his running with Taft as Vice president. He should remember and fco should the people ol thi3 country,

that if he and Taft were elected by another suehloverwhelming majority as that of 1!4, the interests will realize that the handwriting is on the wall, for the downfall of their nefarious methods of conducting business, and it Is written there indelibly by the will of the people. Of late the interests have been claiming that the people are tired of Roosevelt and his policies and, that they favor a return to the old days. Ix't. that claim be put to the test. Let the people have the opportunity of voting with Roosevelt on the republican ticket. miess we are very mistaken, the result will be suh an avalanche of votes that, the special Interests and all their lieutenants, will hunt a large hole, jump in and pull it In after them.

RIDERS ARE WOUNDED

Later, Note Is Left on Door, Vowing Vengeance for Injuries. TWO ARRESTS IN OHIO. Ripley, O., June in. It was developed that two night riders were shot in a conflict with the troops at Iliett Wednesday night. One was wounded in the lunges and the other in the leg. Officers are now trying to locate the wounded men, one of whom is reported to have died. Farmer Tip Martin, who went to the aid of the soldiers in the fight, found a note tacked on his barn door this morning, saying: "You got two of us, but we are coming back and will get you and five others." Newton Mann and William Frost were, arrested last night charged with shooting up the home of Walter Hooks on May 2-. "GET MARRIED AND BECOME GENIAL." Atlantic City, X. J., June 13 "Get married and become genial and pleasant," is the advice which was given to the International Ticket Association which is in conference here. "The bachelor ticket seller is a failure," declared C. M. Kimbel, head of tho Pennsylvania ticket system, with offices in Chicago, "and the influence of women would soften his manners and make him of more force in winning friends and business than when he lived in single desolation. "The public, although sometimes unreasonable in its demands, even in the smallest detail, is entitled to consideration, and the married ticket agent is much more likely to think of his family and change his mind about being impudent than is the single man who has no one dependent on him." KNOX BOOMERS OFF The Pennsylvania Delegation Leaves Pittsburg for Chicago. ARE ALL ENTHUSIASTIC. Pittsburg, Pa,, June 13. A special train on the Pittsburg & Lake Erie Railroad left this city last night for Chicago, bearing 335 Pittsburg Republicans, who are going to the Republican national convention to boom the candidacy of Senator Philander C. Knox for the presidential nomination. The party represents the Americus Club and the Young Men's Tariff Club, two leading political organizations of western Pennsylvania. A brass band accompanied the boomers. Before departing, the delegates paraded under the glare of red fire and were reviewed by Senator Knox from the veranda of the Duquesne Club, where the members were gathered. Pennsylvania delegates at large, including Governor Stuart and Lieutenant Governor Robert S. Murphy, who will present Senator Knox's name to the convention, started for Chicago tonight.

FIVE YEARS IN PRISON FOR CROOKED CASHIER

Indianapolis. Ind., June 1.",. On a plea of guilty to an indictment charging him with embezzlement of funds as cashier of the First National Bank of Dillsboro, Ind., Fred Lubbe was sentenced to five years' imprisonment at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan., by Judge A. B. Anderson, of the Federal court. Lubbe, who is 'Z and unmarried, was indicted last. November, but prior to j then flfd from the state. He was ared to Indianapolis a few days ago. Lubbe asserted that he had overdrawn his account .Slo" and that he took S1.H with him when he left Dillsboro but he denied that he was responsible for a shortage of from $12,000 to $14 - NDWAK TAKES BIDE ON "BLACK ANNABEL" Must Serve Time in the County Jail. His name is Frank Nowak. There may be something in a name after ail. Frank did not have to walk this morning but was given a free ride. His destination was the county jail and the term of his commitment is eleven days. He was convicted of public intoxication. Nowak is a stranger who arrived in the city last evening from Dayton, O. He peddles pins and needles when sober. In court this morning he told a tale that did not speak well for the hospitality of the city that is if it occured just as Nowak related it. He said he and a "peg-legged" friend secured lodging on South Sixth or Fifth street and paid 30 cents for the bed. He claimed that about midnight three fellows came Into the room, grabbed him out of bed and put him out in the street, after giving him a few minutes in which to don his wearing apparel. It was about midnight that Patrolman Hebble found Nowak at Fifth and Main streets and arrested him. The man was intoxicated and was fined $1 and costs this morning. A NOBL'E STOCK. Pride, Dignity and Beantr of th Modern Spaniards. You may see today In any church portal in Spain the somber dignity of expression immortalized in the portraits of Velasquea, the sinister cast of countenance of Philip II., the nose and proud bearing of a Roman centurion. In the Basque provinces the dignity and pride of the peasantry are reflected in the graceful carriage and symmetry of movement for which the men of that coast and the girls carrying pitchers on their heads are justly celebrated. There is no trace of awkwardness in a Spanish peasant, on whose features is stamped the pride of Rome, who will talk to you with the ease and volubility of a Spanish courtier. It is a noble 6tock. Though today the glory of Spain has departed and the modern Spaniard favors a western "bowler" and the women wear Parisian hats, the national type of Spain persists with all its dignity and characteristics. Living types of Murillo's street urchins may bo seen in any Spanish village a group huddled together in some shady retreat, brown, chubby, curly headed, merry little rascals, lunching off a watermelon picked up in the market, happy as princes in their hempen rags and with their meager morsel, or you may see the sunny side of Spain as Goya painted it a dance in the open square, a bridal feast, a bullfighters' carousal, a brawl, an elopement. The apparel is less gaudy today, but the sun and the types and the 6pirit are the same. That brawny picador with his wide brimmed sombrero, his swarthy countenance, aquiline nose and raven locks looks for all the world like a Roman gladiator. The lad at his side, with his finely chiseled features, might have waited on IVppaea. And that young girl in her white lace mantilla and the red roses in her warm black hair such a one yn would have delighted to portray as she stands there with her delicate head defiantly thrown back, her lustrous eyes aglow with mischief, the graceful line of figure and those pursed and pouting lips.

PEARLS WASHED OUT

BY St. Louis. Mo., June 13. A stage of j "T feet is expected by Sunday by the weather bureau, the river having passed the danger line, ? feet. This will be the crest of the flood pouring down the Missouri. A rise is reported as high north as St. Paul on. the Mississippi. Thousands of acres of fine farm land hundreds of homeless people and miles of railroad track under water are results of the present, stage of high water. A Topeka.

He declared that he never speculated. gambled or led a fast life, and that i he seldom was away from Dillsboro. j According to his story his principal ex- j travagance was the purchase of thre" ' horses with his own money. His salary as cashier was S.V a year. He explained that he knew : very little about book keeping when he became cashier of the hank. He said , that patrons of the bank often had him i make out their deposit slips and that ! frequently he neglected to give them , credit. Judge Anderson remarked, j however, that Lubbe's negleet should j have resulted in a larger showing in ; favor of the bank, and that it was not : necessary for him to understand book keeping to be honest.

MET WITH USUAL FISHERMAN'S LUCK Harry Penny Returns Wet and Hungry. Harry K. Penny, county clerk, and ambitious to be a fisherman "like father," went fishing near the Main street bridge yesterday afternoon. He met with the usual fisherman's luck in every detail. He came back wet and hungry. Harry did not tell it on himself, but others did. In his zealous anxiety to secure a favorable location, where it appeared the fish would be most anxious to bite, the county clerk slipped and fell. Splash and the custodian of the circuit court records made haste to extract himself from the quagmire of the bottom. All the accumulated dishwater of the year must have become stagnant at the place the clerk selected for his Immersion. By a display of marvelous alacrity he managed to regain the bank and escape from his perilous position. The inundation was not so bad as what followed. Penny forgot to attach bricks to the bottoms of his trousers after removing them at his home and this morning they were four inches shorter than yesterday. His deputy pointed out the discrepancy when he arrived at the office this morning and the fastidiousness of the clerk required that he go home for an exchange. ITS FIRST MEETING Adult School to Convene at North A Street Friends' Church Sunday. HISTORY OF ORGANIZATION. The first meeting of a public nature to promote the proposed adult school, will be held at the North A Friends Meeting house tomorrow morning at s o'clock. The general public is invited and all those who are interested in the least in a movement to provide a school for instruction on biblical subjects are urged to be present. The adult school movement was originated in Birmingham, England in X(, by five young men, members of the Society of Friends. At the present time there are 4TH schools in England alone. The membership is .50,om. During the past year 110 schools for men and U for women were started. The total membership is estimated at 1M .xk. The movement has spread to Australia and America. The first school in America was started at Philadelphia. The work has extended so far beyond the Society of Friends that the name has been changed from Friends' Pay School association to The National Union of Adult Schools.

FIRST MEETING NEXT SEPTEMBER Commercial Clubs to Convene Here to Form State Federation.

MUCH INTEREST IS TAKEN. ALREADY LOCAL MEN BACKING THE MOVE HAVE RECEIVED LETTERS ASKING ABOUT THE MEETING. The firs: meeting of the proposed Federation of Common .a Clubs of Indiana, will probably ho held in this city nt-xt September. It is qsite prob!e that every commercial organization in the state will be represented at this meeting and that there will be but little difficulty in effecting the proposed organization, which would, without doulit. he the most powerful organization in the state, including, as it would, all the prominent business men in Indiana. The movement to form such an organization was inaugurated by President John F. McCarthy and Secretary 10. M. Haas of the Richmond Commercial Club. Monday circular letters will be addressed to every commercial organization in the state. These letters will outline the plan proposed by Messrs. McCarthy and Haas and the various clubs will be asked to send representatives to a meeting to be held in Richmond on a date to be decided later. Mr. Haas states that already he has received several inquiries concerning the proposed formation of a federation. The Bureau of Forestry at Washington, D. C, has informed Mr. Haas that it would like to send a forestry expert to this meeting to lecture on the movement to save the forests of America from destruction. The Rivers and Harbors Congress, which recently met at Washington and was attended by delegates from every state and territory in the union, has requested that'a place be reserved on the program for a representative from that organization. The Rivers and Harbors Congress desires to interest the business acumen of this state in the movement to improve the waterways of this country. In a great number of states the commercial bodies have federated and the work that has been accomplished by these various federations has been of the greatest benefit to the business interests of the several states. TONICS. Two Kdfted Swords Capable of Mischief as Well m Benefit. There is perhaps no class of remedial agents more abused than tonics. The abuse consists both lu the excessive use and the misapplication of this class of agents, which within a restricted field possess an indisputable and important therapeutic value. The misuse of tonics is doubtless the outgrowth of a misconception of the real nature of this class of remedial agents and Its limitations. Many physicians also seem to lose sight of the fact that tonics are, as has been said of drugs in general, two edged swords which are as capable of mischief as of benefit. Indeed, when the true nature of tonics as is true, in fact, of most medicinal agents is thoroughly understood, it Is apparent that even In cases in which they accomplish the maximum of benefit there is also a certain amount of injury inflicted upon the organism, so that the effect obtained is really and simply the difference between the mischief done and the good accomplished. If Uie difference Is on one side, the total result is benefit; if on the other side, the result is harm. This principle holds good with regard to most remedies, whether the means employed is a drug or a nonmedicinal agent. The popular idea of a tonic Is well expressed lu the following definition, which we find in the National Medical Dictionary: "An agent which augments gradually and permanently the strength and vital activity of the body or its parts." A stimulant is defined by the same authority as being "an agent which increases the functional activity of any organ or series of organs." The distinction made seems to be that a stimulant produces temporary excitement, whereas a tonic produces a permanent increase of strength and vital activity. Good Health. The Word "Policy." That "policy" which a man gets from an insurance company Is no relative of that other word "policy" which the statesmen use. The latter Is a lineal descendant, along with "polity" and police," of the Greek "poiis," a city. But the former is the late Latin "politicum," "poleticum" or "poleaticum," a register wherein dues were enrolled, which is believed to be really the Greek "polyptychum," a document folded into many leaves. If so. the development of the word may be paralleled by that of "diploma," the parent of "diplomatist." which meant simply a document folded double. Chicago News. A Popular Welsh. Drink. All the Welsh counties swear by a drink called sowbeer. It Is made from fourteen different field herbs. Is harmless, except for its sleepy effects, and resembles treacle more than anything. The Welsh villagers always smoke a thin cigarette of dried sage when they drink sowbeer. The stuff is too complicated a mixture for the villagers to brew, but in all the larger towns there are dealers who make it. London Telegraph. Decelt-lnff.
