ROOSEVEITJS UNFIT Chancellor Day Says He Is Not The Man for Harvard Presidency.

BELIEVES IN ROCKEFELLER Boston, Nov. 9. Chancellor James ft. Day, of the Syracuse university, be10m sailing Sunday with his wife and daughter tor an eight months tour of tlit globe, said that President Roosevelt was not fit to be at the head of Harvard university. He said that the letters written by John D. Arcbbold to Senator Foraker and other national legislators, made public during the recent campaign by William Randolph Hearst, were perfectly proper and that any business nan had a right to influence legislation. "I thoroughly believe in the sincerity Of Mr. Rockefeller," said the Chancellor. "I bellve that Mr. Rockefeller declared himself honestly. I know of no reason why his sincerity should be called In question. In fact, to call his sincerity in question and to represent him as Indulging in a political trick indicates one of the two lamentable conditions in this country. "So they are trying to find a successor to President Eliot, of Harvard university, are they? And they are speaking of Theodore Roosevelt for the place? Well, when they find a man who is a diplomat, who can give to the world many great thoughts, Who can control an educational institution on the plane of Harvard, and who can sway the people of the country without bluster, then they will have a worthy successor to President Eliot. "All of these qualities are found in the president of Harvard university. Theodore Roosevelt is not that .kind of a man." STUBBS, NATIVE OF WAYNE COUNTY Governor-Elect of Kansas Makes Rapid Rise.

When one has suffered tortures from a bad Mack and found out how the aches and pains can be removed, advice is of untold valuo to friends and neighbors, particularly when they know the statement is absolutely correct. The following neighborly advice comes from a Richmond resident: David Hershey, carpenter, of 315 South Thirteenth street, Richmond. Ind., says: "Two boxes of Roan's Kidney Pills which I procured1 at A. G. Luken & Co.'a drug store, cured me of a distressing weakness of my kidneys and severe pains through my loins and sides. These troubles had bothered me for some time and other remedies had not given me relief. Doan's Kidney Pills proved to be all and more than is claimed for them, and I am glad to give them my recommendation." For sale by all dealers. Price BO cents.

.Wagered Herself on Winner

Alexandria, Ind., Nov. 9. Now that the election is over, friends of the I. U. T. conductor, "Tommy" McMahan of Wabash and Miss Ethel Foster of Fairmount, parties to the interesting bet recently made, are wondering when the wager will be paid. , Coming from Fairmount to Summitville one morning in the car the faretaker sat down by the side of his fair passenger and in a short time they were in a spirited argument as to who the next' president would be, Taft or Bryan. "I tell you what 1 11 do," McMahan said, "I'll marry you if Taft is defeated if you'll marry me If Bryan loses out." The young woman took her end of FREEDOM OR DEATH DESIRED BY PATRICK Appeal Taken to Supreme Court in Rice Case. New York, Nov. 9. To argue before the United States supreme court a motion to advance the appeal to that court in the case of Albert T. Patrick, convicted of the murder of William Marsh Rice in this city eight years ago, William L. McDonald, attorney for Patrick, departed last night for Washington. The motion was expected to come today, when Patrick's counsel says he also will ask the supreme court for a writ of habea corpus for the production of Patrick in Washington in order that he may argue his case himself. The appeal in the case is from a decision of the United states district court, holdi? Patrick's imprisonment constitutional. Patrick's appeal to the United States court is to declare illegal the commutation granted him by Governor Higgins, whereby his sentence to die in the electric chair was changed to imprisonment for life. Patrick prepared the appeal to the federal court here and in it he made the point that life imprisonment was a much severer sentence than that which condemned him to die; that Governor Higgins exceeded his constitutional powers when he changed the sentence, despite the protests of the defendant and that he (Patrick) should either be electrocuted or given his freedom. A CHILD'S HEROISM. The Story of a Visit to the Beautiful Glssnevin Cemetery. A pathetlc.story of a child's heroism is told by a Dublin gentleman. Recently he proposed to drive with his , wife to the beautiful Glasnevin cemetery. Calling his son, a bright little boy. some four years old, be told him to get ready to accompany them. The child's countenance fell, and the father said: "Don't, you want to go, Willie?" The little lip quivered, but the child answered, "Yes, papa, if you wish." The child was strangely sile'rf Uuring the drive, and when the Carriage drove up to the entrance he clung to his mother's side and looked up in her face with pathetic wistfulness. The party alighted and walked among the graves and along the tree shadowed avenues, looking at the inscriptions on the last resting places of the dwellers In the beautiful city of the dead. After an hour or so thus spent they returned to the carriage, nnd the father lifted his little son to his seat. The child looked surprised, drew a breath of relief and asked: "Why, am I going back with you?" "Of course you are. Why not?" "I thought when they took little boys to the cemetery they left them there," said the child. Many a man does not show the heroism in the face of death that this child evinced in what to him had evidently been a summons to leave the world. London Telegraph. His Mean Trick. There certainly are differences In feelings," said the woman who sometimes philosophizes, "or at least different ways of expressing them. "A few days ago a shocking Incident occurred in the apartment house where I live. The janitor, who was an unusually good looking man about thirty-fire years old, killed himself for some wholly inadequate reason, some difference with his employer. Of course everybody In the house was much upset by the tragedy,' and I, with other tenants, went down to the base ment to see his wife and offer aid. "The wife, however, seemed more resentful than grief stricken. "'Would you ever think such a fine man would do such a mean trick!' she exclaimed." New York Press. Where They Know How to Economize. At the request of a woman In search of a servant the manager of an employment agency asked each of the girls lined up against the wall if she had ever been employed in a minister's family. None of them had been. "May I ask why you are particularly anxious to know if these girls have had an engagement of that kind?" asked the manager. "Because we are very hard up Just now," the woman replied, "and I must have a girl who is economical. I have found that of all servants those who have worked in ministers' families know best bow to economize." New York Sun. Easy Trick. Marshall P. Wilder once showed Alexander Herrmann a new trick at cards. "Alex," said the humorist, "I will tell you the name of a card that you will select in your mind." After a panse he asked, "Now. what Is it, Alex?" "The queen of diamonds," answered the magician. "Tes," said Wilder, "that Is right." Herrmann stood puzzled for a moment, then smiled and admitted that the laugh was on him.

Election of Bet' is Backward

the odd wager, and there in the presence of a car full of passengers the matter was confirmed. Now that she has lost, Miss Foster asserts her willingness to "be game" and has asked Mr. McMahan to name the date when he wants to collect his wager. He is not taking the matter as seriously as his fair friend thinks he should, and as yet has made no effort to collect. Miss Foster has owned and conducted a bakery in Fairmount and at present Is alternately on the staffs of Fairmount and Summitville papers. Mr. McMahan, although a native of Ireland and but nine or ten years "on this 6ide," is well up on American way3 and for almost the whole time over has been an employe of the Indiana Union Traction company. WEEK JUST CLOSED COOLESTJF SEASON Thermometer Ranged From 9 To 66 Degrees. T. T. The two capital letters on the report of Weather Observer Vossler for last week indicate "traces." That is how near it came to raining. Traces means clouds and probably and occasional whiff of mist that leads one to believe water falls from above and does not exist entirely in underground streams. It was on last Sunday and Monday that the observer's keen eye discerned Indications of watery globules existing in the atmosphere. That's all it didn't rain. The week was one of low temperatures. The highest Old Sol could boost the mercury was up to (X! degrees and the lowest 9 degrees. The following was the daily range for last week: High. Low.

The Scene Illnstrata of Rome tells this story of the first Napoleon as dramatic writer. lie had seen a performance of "The Cid," which impressed him so forcibly that he decided to write a classic drama. Within a short time he had finished nearly four acts of a play, which he entitled "Hector." Then came his election as a brigadier general, and the manuscript was thrown into a desk, where he found it again by chance in 1805. Napoleon then sent for Luce de Lancival, gave him the manuscript and directed him to finish the play. This was done, but the players refused to accept it. When Napoleon returned to Paris from the coronation at Naples he learned of the contemptuous manner In which his work had been treated. He demanded the manuscript and wrote' across it: "The players of the Comedie Francalse will produce the tragedy which in their stupidity they rejected. Napoleon." Two hours later the work was accepted. In three weeks it was produced before a brilliant audience, declared a success, and the alleged author was decorated with the grand cross of the Legion of Honor. The Voyder. The voyder was a large dish in which were collected the broken victuals which were removed from the table with a large knife with a broad, flat blade, called the voyder knife, from vlder, to empty, clear or make void. "The Boke of Nurture," by Hugh Rhodes, the date of which is 1577, one of the curious set of handbooks of manners and etiquette reproduced by the Early English Text society, speaks of these vessels as follows: "See ye have voyder s ready for to void the morsels, that they doe leave on their trenchers. Then with your trencher knyfe take off such fragments and put them in your voyder and then sette them downe cleane agayne." Few silver ones remain, but some large brass voyders or dishes which have probably been so used may still be seen, of the history of which nothing la known by their present owners. "Old English Plate," by W. J. Cripps. Typee of Female Beauty. In northern Europe, among the Teutonic races, there are distinct types of beauty to be met with In Sweden, Poland, Saxony and Austria. The Swedish type, however, lacks animation, but the mold andflgure to some extent atone for this, says the London Globe. The Austrian women possess a composite beauty in which are united the charms of three or four races. Vienna ladies are tall and stately, with great harmony and proportion In feature and figure. The Tyrolese maiden often lacks a good figure, but her face and manner possess all that is most bewitching in the two races of which she Is composed, Latin and Germanic. At Studio Tea. She put down her cup and rose. "Thanks awfully," she said, "for letting me see your academy picture, Mr. Brush and gooSiy." He accompanied her gallantly to tha door. "And are you going to see Black's academy picture over the way now? he inquired. She gave him" her brightest smile. "Oh. no!" she said sweetly. "I shall see that at the academy, you know."

REVISION M JULY Tariff Bill Cannot Be Enacted Into Law Until Late in Special Session.

MUCH DEBATE IS PROMISED Washington, Nov. 9. A tariff bill can scarcely be enacted into a law un til the latter part of July in the opinion of Representative Sereno Payne, one of the house leaders. Mr. Payne recommended that the Ways and Means committee is in better shape to handle the question than it has been for many years. But even with this advantage, he cannot see how the extra session can adjourn before the middle or latter part of July. The idea of getting the bill through the house, Mr. Payne does not consider feasible. "There will be more than the usual number of new democrats in the house," said Mr. Payne, "and consequently there will be a great amount of debate. Debate means time and I do not think we will make any better progress than was made on the Dingley tariff bill. That extra session adjourned July 27. HAULED FIRST TRAIN ON PITTSBURG DIVISION Aged Engineer Pensioned by Pennsy. Altoona, Pa., Nov. 9. Christian L. Snyder, a locomotive engineer, who enjoys the distinction of hauling the first through train over the Pittsburg division of the Pennsylvania railroad, has been retired on a pension, having reached the age of 7 years. Snyder has worked for the Pennsylvania for fifty years, helping to lay the tracks and then becoming .a brakeman. He was promoted to engineer by Andrew Carnegie on Nov. 24, 1803, and was one of the men who hauled the Sauthern Express, the first train to run from Altoona to Pittsburg without making a stop. For a number of years he has been an engineer on the Williamsburg branch. BUILDINGS IN MINIATURE. Architects Often Make Clr Models of Important Structures. Although the architect is still the most important person in the planning j any big public or private building, he often depends on the model maker and not the draftsman to show his patron just how the structure will look when completed. The model maker, In other words, takes the architect's drawings and makes an exact counterpart of the building on a small scale in clay. When a theater is to be constructed, for example, such a model is made with the greatest minuteness, and every detail is looked at from the point of view of the stage, thus avoiding the possibility that when it is too late some of the seats will be found quite out of range of the performance. In other buildings architectural details that appear excellent on paper are thus sometimes discovered to be inharmonious with the character of the structure as a whole and. can be changed before the actual process of their construction has started. By the use of models, in fact, nothing is left to chance and everybody can express his objections before the work is too far advanced to make the necessary changes seriously expensive. RISKY SURGERY. Dtifrr For the Doctor Who Um late Emprcti Catherine. Inoculation against smallpox preceded the modern method of vaccination and was attended with a good deal of danger. Thomas Dimsdale was the foremost advocate of Inoculation. He inoculated Empress Catherine of Russia. This was in' 1768. There was considerable danger to life in undergoing this artificially' induced disease. The czarina, therefore, arranged that during the whole course of the illness of her son and herself there should be relays of swift horses kept constantly ready attached to carriages all along the post road the nearest way out of Russia. Catherine told Dimsdale that if bad symptoms displayed themselves be was not to remain to look after them, but to fly for his life without delay or compunction. She well knew that he would not be safe if she or the heir of Russia died In his hands. She gave him an order of the most urgent kind from herself to the successive postmasters not to delay him for a minute on any pretext. Dimsdale received a fee of about $50,000 from the empress and other gifts besides. Wearers of Cooltadea. Cockades were formerly worn only by soldiers, which gave ri to the phrase, common both in England and France, "to mount the cockade." meaning to become a soldier. The black cockade worn on the hats of officers' servants was Introduced into Britain by George I. from his German dominions. The real right to use it belongs not only to naval and military officers, but also to the holders of certain offices under the crown, such as privy councilors, cabinet ministers and judges, though many people who cannot claim to be classed under any of these categories display it, on "their servants hats.

The Remarkable Will 01 A Doctor

He Leaves the Secret of Life to His Children And the World. One of the world s greatest physicians upon his death bed called his children about him and said: "When I die I will leave the secret of life as I have discovered it in my practice." When they read his will it directed them to a safety vault which contained a large envelope marked thus: "The Secret of Life." Upon opening it they read: "Don't abuse the stomach." This profound thinker after a long life of medicine knew the stomach to be the throne of man. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will help you make a stomach healthy.

Hitchcock of the republican national committee arrived here Sunday for a short period of rest. He was accompanied by Sec'y William Hayward, Fred W. Up man of Chicago and several assistants. The party will leave this afternoon in a special car for Hot Springs, Va., where on Tuesday Chairman Hitchcock will hold a conference with President-elect Taft. A PERILOUS FEAT. 'V Caging 3evag Hippopotamus In the London Zoo. Many more little dramas are enacted at the koo than the outside public wots of, says the London Standard. Behind the lion house there is a black leopardess which is Implacably savage and tries to eat her keeper. Her neighbor Is a great romping leopard which a lifdy reared iu India. He comes out to play when the British public is represented by only a livrried zoo man. Sometimes the animals get out without the consent of their keepers. One which did so was Obash, the hippopotamus. He proved a savage Indeed when the attempt was made to deprive him of his liberty. Happily the gardens were closed at the time. Try as they would, the keepers could not entice or coerce the monster In the direction of his den. At last the superintendent called up an assistant whom the hippopotamus hated. The chief put a bank note into the man's hand. "Scott," he said, "throw open the paddock gate, show yourself to Obash, then run for it." Scott did. The animal went for him, raging along the path and after him into the paddock. Scott climbed the railings just in time, and the hippopotamus on turning found the gate secured behind it. Presently a press representative arrived to investigate the story, which had somehow become known. "Hippopotamus escaped? Ob, dear no! Come and see him in his den," he was answered as they led him to where the monster was recaged. SUME PET ECONOMIES. Saving String and Paper We Never Use Wasted Medicines. Hardly a person exists without some favorite economy, some little senseless tribute which be offers at the shrine of thrift and by which he saves just nothing. Some people refuse to cut the string of parcels and waste precious minutes laboriously untying knots. Others store away scraps of lace and silk and are delighted when a stray occasion justifies their practice by making use of a hoarded treasure. I myself have a weakness for half sheets of note paper. I am annoyed ex ceedingly when I receive a letter with the third page covered and the second blank. It seems an opportunity missed. Yet as I rarely make use of my pieces I can only keep them from a magpie love of saving. Apropos of this subject, I rerj3er"er a clergyman once telling me about an t-unt of his who in her eagerness that nothing should be wasted insisted upon drinking the remaining doses in any medicine bottles that the invalids in the household had been unable to finish. This seems carrying a good principle a little too far. London . Black and White.

The Great Gl Pacific 727 Main Phone EAGERLY AWAIT CORONER S VERDICT Insurance Companies Interested in Haynie Death. The verdict of Coroner Bramkamp as to the cause of the death of the late Dr. J. D. Haynie is awaited with expectancy by two life insurance companies. Both of these companies carried a line of accident insurance with the doctor as the risk. His death followed a fall down stairs and the question is whether it was injury from the fall or apoplexy that brought his end. The insurance companies have had representatives making investigations and an autopsy was held on the body. If death were due to apoplexy the insurance companies would avoid payment upon the accident policies. Beggars Are Ingenious. "Nowhere Is the ingenuity of the present age more apparent than In the begging letters received by rich men," said a private secretary. I have been reading letters of that kind by the hundred for the last fifteen years. Formerly all begging letters sounded alike. So stereotyped were they that they might have been copied verbatim from a ready letter writer. Now the writers display originality. They may want the same old things that their predecessors wanted, but they ask for them In a different way. People In need have acquired the art of expressing themselves forcibly. That Is to their advantage. "It may be unjust, but usually It Is the letter that hits the rich man hardest that brings a favorable reply. The writer may not really need assistance nearly so badly as some timid person who can't get awsy from trite phrases, but he gets fhe relief asked for every time." New York Globe. ' y Useless.
