Spur his horse and run? No. He wanted to get out and search the bushes. Such a eplrit, admirable as It Is In itself Is nothing more nor less than foolhardiness In the chic executive, and still It is this very quality which In Its es sence has endeared him to the Ameri can people. They like it because it is American. Can anyone for a moment entertain the Idea that the Czar cf all the Rnsslas, the little blood bespattered While Father would have 'want ed to search the bushes" for his would be assassin? Nicholas would have beat it and quickly, too. It Is this element of disregard of per sonal danger which has been so con splcuous In everything that Roosevelt has done. It made him the Idol of the 6oldiers, the hero of the New York City police force, and finally won him among other things the regard of the whole people. In a speech in this city, Roosevelt said, "If a man shoots another, find that man and turn him over to the au thoritles. That was Roosevelt's at titude then.

FINES ARE PROVIDED FOR. STRINGENCY OF LAWS INTENDED AS BAR TO THOSE WILLING TO TAKE SMALL RISKS OF DISHONESTY. Spokane, Wash., Sept. 5. What is declared by authorities to be the most advanced form of direct primary election law on the etatute books of any commonwealth. In the union, will be used the first time throughout Washington next Tuesday, when candidates for state offices. United States senators, representatives in Congress, judges of the supreme and superior courts and county offices, will be nominated to be voted for at the general election In November. The unique features of the law, which was approved March 13 1907, and given its initial test at the city election In Spokane the following , April, are the direct vote for United States Benator, the non-partisan judiciary, the second choice and the provisions restricting lavish expenditures of money and lessening the Intrusion of venal publications. Fines and Imprisonment are also provided for any one who solicits money, liquor, or anything of value for Influencing votes, thus throwing every possible safeguard around the franchise, and In a way eliminating the old-time warhorse politician as a factor in the nomination of candidates. Any qualified voter can ceclare his candidacy for any office on the ballot used at any primary election, provided he pays the fee required by law and files his name, address and party af filiation, with the secretary of state at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the primary. The fee for registering is $10 for any office with a salary or compensation attached of $1,000 or less a year, and where more an additional amount, equal to 1 percent of the salary on such excess. There are no party caucusses or con ventions to nominate candidates, or the jobbery and machine methods usually attendant upon them. A feature of the law not In use in any other state requires tue voter to designate his first and second choice in all instances where there are four or more candidates of any political party for one state or congressional office. The language of this provision follows, in part: "No voter shall vote for the same person for first choice and second choice, and no voter shall, where there are four or more candidates for such nomination, vote for one person only. either as first or second choice, and no ballot so voted for one person only for either first or second choice, or for the same person for both first and second choice, shall be considered a complete ballot, but any ballot under said oonditions, failing to show both first and second choice of different persons, shall not be considered of counted for that office."

Paris News and Gossip Is of Interesting Nature

Paris, Sept 5. Likethe late Sage, Dr. Toulouse, the French medical expert, does Russell famous j not be- j lieve in vacations. Dr. Toulouse, above all. objects to the Idea that it Is necessary to rest tne mina Dy exercis ing the body. Tnis axiom, he says, is proved by physiology to be absurd. When the body gets tired the mind does n rest. To take a long walk, for instance, after several hours of mental work is simply adding another fatigue. " The less physical exercise the better. Women as a rule do not indulge in physical exercise, live longer than men. Fresh air and one hour's walking a day is all that is required. Dr. Holouse boldly declares that no athlete was ever a genius, and no intellectual man can ever be much of an athlete. You cannot spend your vitality in two directions. The system of taking a whole day's rest every week and a month or two at a time ; every year, is physiologically ridicu-j lous. "When we take our vacation," Dr Toulouse says, "we generally devote our time to some physical exercise, cycling, golfing, mountaineering or Bwimming to which our body is not adapted. It upsets our physique, and the fatigue reacts on our minds with the result that nine out of ten persons feel worse after a vacation than when they started and unable to resume work properly." We do not need long rests, we want short ones. Do not rest sixteen hours per week on Sunday, but four separate half hours per day. Do not rest one or two months a year after ten months of intense life and work, but divide these twelve months into half holidays of delightful laziness. What would you say of a man who would work unceasingly for six years and then spend a whole year in idleness? Yet this is exactly what we do on a smaller scale with our Sundays." The attempts by the Paris river police to employ dogs as assistants in saving persons from drowning has proved a failure. Most of the animals are dead, others have been dismissed as unfit for the service. The only survivor, Paris, a splendid Newfnnndlnrid itnr mnv he seen lazilv licking his paws in the sunlit spots of the guays. It was In 1900 that the first f . . y,t tJ , two dogs were brought to aid the riv- ,, . , . . " VOh f6 mnth.8 !f, M wereadded and eventually the num-j ber reached 14. In spite of a long and difficult training the results,, however, were meagre. One of the river police A- .1 - 1 J . J..

They will only throw themrelves into the water from places which they can readily reascend, besides they are not always inclined to the dogs can only be credited with the saving of one life. Diana, a New foundland, plunged from the Pont Nenuf and to land a man who had tried to commit suicide. After resting for many long years in the museum at Versailles, the state carriage in which the Empress Josephine drove to Malmaison after her divorce, has just made Its appearance once more to the astonished gaze of the public in the Bois de Versailles as the ancient "Ceresse" was being transferred to the museum at MalMaison. Known as the "Opale" the carriage retains much of its old time splendor, being still magnificently enamelled in Royal and gold, but the springs creaked horribly and th epair of cabhorses drawing it from the one museum to the other got over the ground painfully and laboriously. The last occasion on which the Opale was used was during the reign of Napoleon III, on the occasion of the baptism of the Prince Imperial. If the police find dogs, useless and collaborators, thieves and other dishonest gentry would seem to find no difficulty in profiting by canine intelligence as witness the following incident A lady, Mme. Dancel, was taking her morning constitutional In the Avenue de Jena, A shabbily dressed Individual followed by a pretty little fox terrier overtook her and asked her to buy the animal, praising its many qualities and tricks including that of rope skipping and carrying parcels. The lady became interested and wanted the dog put to test at once. The man told her to give the satchel she was carryingto the dog and she would see how cleverly he would carry it for her. Mme. Dancel complied. The terrier amply fulfilled all its master had claimed. He did skip, not only with the . cord but with the satchel containing 800 francs and in ten seconds was out of sight. The man, needless to say disappeared too and neither he nor his cleverly trained terrier thief has been seen or heard of since. There was much talk about a "false Rubens" in a Paris court dur ing a recent hearing, but the Rubens spoken of had nothing to do with the famous painter and his works. It was all about a Mr. Rubens, a naturalized American, who died in Paris two j years ago. leaving a splendid mansion' and a fortune of $2,000,000 to two other Americans Mr Rnhen had heaa er Americans. Mr. KJDens naa oeea,

and was known to be very wealthy. He was a great art collector and filled his houses with valuable works. When he died a number cf nephews and grand nephews turned up and contested the will. They alleged that the person known as Mr. Kubens was a false Rubens, that his real name was ' Samuel Woog and thta he had chang- i ed it in America to escape a charge of theft preferred against him as far j back as 1846 for which he was sen- j tenced by default to six years impris- j onment. He had, it is alleged, escap-; ed to America, where he made a for- j tune in the pearl trade and after becoming an American citizen had re-! turned to Paris to enjoy his wealth.' The court declared that under the cir-1 cumstances it had no jurisdiction j anent the alleged "false Rubens" and ; the suit will have to be decided in ' America. As to whether the allegation is true or not nothing can be known as the archives of the Palais de Justice were destroyed by fire af- i ter 1846. Perhaps Samuel Woog was aware of this and therefore felt perfectly safe in returning to Paris. Rough, Red Hands. A great embarrassment to many omen are thir rough, red hands.

The dryness of the law is sometimes alleviated by the freaks and whims that appear in wills. Some persona have used their wills as means of paying off old scores. In 1770 Stephan Swain of the parish of St. Olaves, London, left "John Abbott and Mary, his wife, G shillings each for a halter for fear the sheriff should Dot be provided." In 1793 Philip Thickness willed that his right hand : f ut and sent to his son "in hopes fVV ig" ay remind him of ! his duty to God after having so long . ,. ... . . ,.. neglected the duty he owed to a father who once affectionately loved him . Lleutfenant Colonel Nash got even , wltQ Wg wjfe by leaviug the 11 ring , prs of BatQ abbey a year on condi. tion that tn muffle tne ils o Baid ahhey on the anniversary of his mar rjatre &nA rme them with "doleful acI centuatlon from 8 a. m. to 8 p. m." and ' on the anniversary of his death t4 ring a merry peal for the same space "in memory of his happy release from domestic tyranny and wretchedness." Jasper Mayne, who died In 1620. must have been a person of humor He left his servant an old valise, statIng that it contained something that would enable him to drink. W hen the valise was opened it was found to contain only a red herring. Occasionally a testator exhibits an original idea as to the disposition of his body. Sieur Benoit, whose will was probated In Paris In 1877, ordered that he be buried In his old trunk to save the expense of a coffin. He added that he was attached to the trunk. It having gone around the world -with him three times. New York Post. FAKE PAINTINGS. One of the Ingenious Tricks of the Picture Deafer. The tricks of the picture dealer? They are not to be counted. Here Is one that was played quite recently. A dealer ordered from an artist a tavern scene in the old Dutch style signed in the corner with a facsimile of Jan Steen's signature. When the smok? look of age had been given it the deal er eyed it with approval. "Splendid!" he said to the needy artist. "It's a pity you shouldn't hare the credit of it. Tray fign it with your owu name. It may make your reputa tion." The poor artist, delighted, painted over the signature of Jan Steen and set his own name there. Three weeks later the picture started for New York, consigned to a Fifth avenue merchant of paintings. But by the same boat went an anonymous letter to the custom house officials warning them that an attempt was being made to smuggle in a chef d'oeuvre of the Dutch school worth $40,000. The picture was seized. Experts were called in. They scraped oST the signature of the artist and found underneath that of Jan Steen. The Importer had to pay a fine of 50 per cent that is. $20.000 and In addition $S.000 duty. Three days later, however, he sold his Jan Steen (guar anteed by the United States govern ment) for the round sum of $50,000 Thus be made a fair profit, for the orig Inal cost of the picture was $14 70 francs paid tr th? poor devil of ar nrtlst. n- " Foley's Orino Laxative, is a new remedy, an improvement cn the laxa tives of former years, as it does not grips or nauseate and is pleasant to take.

Comttesttaefis FigMmigi H&irdl In Want Ad Contest Palladium and Sun-Telegram The classified ad contest of this paper is still creating great interest among the citizens of Richmond and the contestants are fighting hard to win in their respective districts. The people of Richmond are realizing more and more the advantage of placing an advertisement among the want ads of the Palladium and Sun-Telegram. The cheapest and best paying advertising in the world is newspaper classified advertising and the users of Palladium and Sun-Tehgram Want Ads agree with us that this paper's Want Ads. give far greater results than any other paper in the City of Richmond. When you consider that for a few pennies you can place an advertisement in the homes of over 5,000 families and thus, counting five to a family, the paper is read daily by over 25.000 people, the results must necessarily be greater than our charge of one cent per word would lead one to think. There is still an opportunity for anyone to enter the contest in the districts below and if the proper amount of energy is displayed in soliciting want ads there is a splendid chance for the last one entering to be the one to win out at the end. Anyone wishing to entere the contest now is entitled to 2C0 votes for the first ad brought to this office. Some of the contestants have been working hard, thus showing that they . ii. i ..... . . . . .

nave me ammuon 10 succeed ana win out in this contest ana consequently receive a handsome watch or ring. In district No. 7, the two leaders are little girls working hard to win out. Doris Shesler is now first, she having the largest number of votes of any contestant in any district. Rose Mercurio is second in District No. 7. In district No. 3, there is quite a close contest between May Weiss and Howard Siekman, there being a difference of only 10 votes h their standing. All of these contestants mentioned are determined to win. Lida Hopping, in district No. 10 has the second largest number ot votes of anyone in any one dhtrict, and Ernest McKay, the only name entered in district No. 8, is working hard ti receive the prize in his district and also to be the first one to reach the $10.00 mark and thus receive the prize of 50 per cent, commission or $5. Ruth Davis shows a large increase today, having gained in the last two days 210 votes. Let each contestant resolve to call at each house or store in their district; we havG no doubt but that their work will be liberally rewarded and that they will receive advertisements enough to increase their vote considerably. If your name appears below and you are not credited with the largest number of votes in your district, make an effort today to bring to our office at least one ad and, if you are willing to work, we have no doubt but that it will be possible for you to bring at least one advertisement to our office each day during the remainder of the contest. If this is done, you will stand a very good show of winning the handsome prize which will be given in each district in which a contest is carried on. Remember, the contestant credited with the first $10.00 worth of ads receives a commission of 50 per cent or a prize of $5.00 for their effcrta, Below is set forth the standing of the contestants in their respective districts:
