It is a good thing in these days when success is measured in dollars and cents and the world's estimate of a man is usually "How much is he worth," to see that occasionally men who amass fortunes by devious methods come to grief. Therefore the conYictioa of Charles W. Morse is like a draught of Ice water in a desert. He is sentenced to jail for fifteen years for violating the banking laws of the United States. Morse, is one of those reckless fig ures in American finance who has caused no end of trouble to his business associates and who was one of the first of the rolling stones in the panic of 1907. His rise from a small coal and ice dealer to the control of the Ice Trust and thence on to his notorious chain of banks may be romantic but unhealthful reading, it is certainly. But the time came when Morse could no longer borrow over half the resources of his bank undisturbed or rather the panic which was instituted by his business rivals, prevented him from putting it back. It may seem a commentary on the board, of directors and the American system of banking. But it is never theless true that it was largely this occurrence which led to the late rul ing of the comptroller of the currency that the bank examiners must question the directorate of each bank to establish what relations are actually in force between the directors and the management Be that as it may. The reorganization of the banking laws is as nothing compared with the gain which the public morality re ceives in this case. It is a good tonic. Perhaps now the thing once known as honesty will prove a little more at tractive. This sounds harsh. Wall Street itself has a harsher thing to say. The Wall Street Journalthe "Pulse of the Street," remarked in editorial comment not long ago, that what American business needed for its own good, was failing the restoration of the Ten Commandments to power and suggested that congress assembled try furnish a substitute' for them. i As for the sympathy which is perhaps rightfully bestowed on his family it is not the Jail sentence which should be so hard to bear as the jeers of the rabble of New York. And yet the poor of New York- City can remember the time when babies died for want of ice, the price of which Morse, the Ice King had raised to five times the prior rate. Whether this man yet escapes on a technicality he is branded with worse than a hot Iron but who will say he does not deserve it? Usually these things are found out after the funeral. WOULD NOT BE MORGANATIC WIFE No Definite Plans for AbruzziElkins Wedding. ElkiiiL. W. Va., Nov. 10. That the marriage of the duke of the Abruzzi to Miss Catherine Klkins, daughter of United States Senator Stephen B. Elkins, 13 still a matter of future determination is the Information given out lere by members of the family. It is, strongly denied that Miss Elkins has ordered her trousseau and it is also declared -with emphasis that wntfer no circumstances would there be he slightest consideration by the ElkIns family of a morganatic marriaere. It is civen- out there has been no thanso in the status of affairs for several months and lhat no definite announcement need be expec ted for some time. It. is also asserted there has teen no talk of a special dowry. MASONIC CALENDAR. Tuesday Evening, Nov. 10 Rich mond Lodge No. 196, F. & A. M called meeting, Master Mason's de grecv ' ' .

Charles P. Taft May be Made Member of the United States Senate From the State of Ohio

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 10. That Charles P. Taft is a candidate for United States Senator to succeed Joseph Benson Foraker is firmly believed by every republican politician about the capital. It is hardly necessary, therefore, for him to make a formal declaration at this time. Inquiry develops the Interesting fact that practically every member of the republican state organization from Arthur I. Vorya down is for Taft They add the Qualification, however, that this ELECTIOII PETITION Effort Will Be Made to Make Preble County Dry as Sahara. MANY VOTERS SIGN IT. New Paris, 0., Nov. 10. Petitions are being circulated in every school district of Jefferson township in the effort to secure signatures asking fcr a special election under the Rose county local option law. It is expected 75 per cent of the voters will sign the petition. Similar petitions are being circulated throughout Preble county in the effort to have it voted dry. Those persons who are promoting the petition proposition are confident i enough of signatures will be secured to I induce the commissioners to call the ) election. After the call is issued the real work will begin, t has been the 1 history of such events in other couties that many men who will not sign ' the petition will vote against the saloons and on the other hand there is a number that will sign the petition, but not vote against the saloons. A determined fight is to be put on in this county and it is expected the result will be close. HEXAMETHYLENETETRAMINE The above is the name of a German chemical, which Is one of the many valuable ingredients of Foley's Kidney Remedy. Hexamethylenetetramine is recognized by medical text books and authorities as a uric acid solvent and antiseptic for the urine.

Interest is being aroused among the farmers In the corn school, which will bti held at Centerville in February.

FINGERS AMPUTATED. Samuel Gramrvey Meets With a Bad Accident. While cleaning, a machine at the Richmond Casket Company's plant yesterday afternoon, the fingers of the left hand of Samuel Gramney were lacerated. He was removed to the hospital in the city ambulance. Am putation of all the fingers was found necessary. Dr. Morrow was summoned in the case. Gramney resides at 129 South Ninth 6treet. The Quickest and Simnlact Pnunh Hiiro Better than all the cough medicines you could buy and far more effective, is a simple remedy that you can make at home in five minutes. A whole pint of it enough to last a family a long time costs only 54 cents. It is pleasant to take. It will usually conquer a deep-seated cough in 24 hours. Two or three doses usually ovecome an ordinary cough. It is also splendid for colds, bronchial troubles, Incipient lung trouble, whooping cough, etc. This is the recipe. Granulated Sugar Syrup 13 ox.

If kept well corked it will never spoil. Take a teaspoonful every one, two or three hours as required. Granluted Sugar Syrup is a simple but excellent sedative. Pinex is the most valuable concentrated compound of Norway White Pine Extract and is rich In all the medicinal elements of the pine. Colds and coughs are almost unknown in the great pine forests, and It is In these wonderful woods that consumption has been most successfully treated, the very air being charged with the chemical virtues of the pine. There are many pine oil and pine tar preparations, but none of these compare with the real Pinex itself. All druggists have it or can get it if requested.

support is to be forthcoming only in the event that he enters the race. This is a very proper action on their part even though it means nothing just now. Something may turn up that will prevent the Cincinnati man from standing as a candidate, and in that event these leaders would be free to act in the Interest of some other favorite son. The wisdom of Mr. Taft In letting matters drift is now aprarent It is enough to let the members-elect of the republican caucus know that he Is a possibility.

TYPHOID FEVER EPIDEMIC OVER Only Three Wernle Orphans Have Disease The epidemic of typhoid fever has practically run its course among the children at the Wernle Orphans' Home. During the scourge there were thirty patients and out of this number two fatalities resulted.

It is now believed by the officials of the home that there is very little llkeli hood of new cases. At present there are three patients at the hospital, but It is stated that they will be able to return to the Home some time this week.

LIKES THE GAME OF GOLF. PRESIDENT SAYS HE INTENDS TO DO WHAT HE CAN TO POPU LARIZE IT, AS IT FITTED HIM FOR STRENUOUS CAMPAIGN. Hot Springs, Va., Nov. 10 Presi dent-elect Taft spends the greater part cf the time on the golf links. Mr. Taft says that he intended to contribute his share to popularizing golf in this country. He is going to start right in here at Hot Springs. Playing golf is a serious work for Mr. Taft, as he has explained. "A man of my build requires exer else in the open air," he said, "and exercise, to be beneficial, must be en tertainlng, of course. I can ride, but one cannot maintain a keen Interest in riding a horse. In golf there is just enough skill required to get up a keen interest in the game, and this takes up your thoughts while you are getting a five or six mile walk." Not a Rich Man's Game. Judge Taft maintains that golf is not "a rich man's game." In Scotland, he said, It is played generally by the populace, and In this country Its devotees are becoming more numerous each year. It was golf, Mr. Taft believes, that put him in the splendid physical con dition he was in when he took up the strenuous work of the campaign and enabled him to get through it without a breakdown. He will play the game this winter as much as possible to get in shape for his duties at the white house next spring. The stay of President-elect Taft at the Virginia Hot Springs will be pro longed until the first week of Decem ber, if the ordinary season of mild weather here prevails. It is Mr. Taft's determination to fit himself by riding and golf for the strenuous du ties which await him in March. He has accepted the request of Miss Boardman, of Washington, president of the National Red Cross, to attend the annual meeting of the society in Washington, December 9. He expects to remain here until then. Although his plans have not been determined. It Is his intention to then go to Augusta, Ga., to take a cottage and remain during the winter. The Taft family physician in Cincinnati has recommended the Georgia city as the ideal place for outdoor exercise during the winter. The air is said to have enough of the sting of cold to thicken the blood and to be mild enough to make It pleasant in the open. Georgia Hospitality. Business men and others In Georgia have sent a representative to Hot Springs to tell Mr. Taft anything he wants to know about wintering places in any part of that state and to extend the glad hand to him generally. Georgia folks have heard that the President-elect Is thinking of spend ing two of the winter months in that state, and they want to make sure of bim. The presence of the special representative is not the only evidence of Georgia's hospitality. A man in Atlanta has offered Mr. Taft the use of both his city and his country place. Mr. Taft is thinking of going to Bon Air, near Augusta, where there is fine golf course. VALUABLE TIMBER LANDS MAY BURN Worst Forest Fire in W. Va Is Imminent. Marlinton, W. Va., Nov. lO. Unless there is a providential rain, which now seems improbable, tne 140,000 acres of timber land owned by the West Virginia Spruce Lumber compary, a subsidiary corporation to the West Virginia Pulp and Paper compa ny, of New York, and valued at more than $7,000,000, will be in imminent danger of destruction by one of the most appalling forest fires in the his tory of this part of the lumber-pro ducing portion of the state. The fire extends for almost five miles through the densest timber country in the immediate neighbor hood of the spruce company opera tions.

ROOSEVELT MEETS LAB0R LEADERS Conference in Washington, November 17, to Discuss Laws, GOMPERS IS OMITTED. EXPLANATION ISSUED FROM THE WHITE HOUSE PRESIDENT DE SIRES COOPERATION IN PLANS FOR LEGISLATION. Wasnington, Nov. 10. The Presi dent will give a big dinner at the White House on November 17, t which he invited nearly a dozen labor leaders.. The dinner is to be given in honor of the labor leaders, but several Federal Judges will be Invited and a number of prominent members of the President's official family. The President's Idea of entertaining the labor leaders is to secure their cooperation and that of other leaders in public thought in his plans for labor legislation. He wants to bring about a better understanding between labor leaders and Judges respecting the rights of the laboring classes, especially in Injunction cases. It is known that the President was very angry over the attitude of certain Federal Judges in labor cases some months ago. He thinks that the issue made on Injunctions in the recent Presidential election has left bad feelings which ought to be remedied. This can be accomplished, he believes, by getting together all hands and engaging in a frank discussion. The most significant feature of the affair is the omission from the list of invited labor representatives of Samuel Gompers, President of the American Federation of Labor; Frank Morrison, Secretary; John B. Lennon, treasurer, and James O'Connor, third vice president It was explained at the "White House today that the national convention of the Federation of Labor would be In session at the time and it was thought that the officers of that organization, whose names had been left out of the list of Invited, would be much occupied at the time.
