Items Gathered in From Far and Near

GREATLY EXAGGERATED. From the New Haven. Evening Register. News from Africa whose conclusiveness Is beyond question adds Mr. Roosevelt to the distinguished association of iersons the news of whose deaths has been "slightly exaggerated." From the Portland Oregonlan. Of course no one believed the story that any Hon had killed Roosevelt. We know Roosevelt. From the Columbus Evening Dispatch. The Roosevelt rumor deceived no seasoned obituary editor. From the Milwaukee Sentinel. Col. Roosevelt has cabled that he is not dead. It would be mighty interesting to know how he referred to the person who said he was. From the Scranton Tribune. Col. Roosevelt has demonstrated that the jungle fever is a myth. From the Syracuse Post-Standard. Mr. Roosevelt is pardoned for defining the report that he is dead by a short and ugly word.

THE SENIOR SENA TOR Beveridge made two talks in Richmond yesterday. Purely non-partisan, his speeches were, direct from his heart with none of the political maundering which so often characterizes those who come on a non-political mission. Whether it was in his talk to the students at Earlham, or to the business men of Richmond, there was something far deeper than the mere maneuvering for political position. It was sincerity and honesty which was uppermost. In such cases it is apt to be the thing most lacking in public men. For it must be remembered that Beveridge has just been through the most trying ordeal that can be the fate of a man in his position to throw his fate, not with the head of the party, but with the people in a full consciousness that ihe men like Aldrich and Cannon are powerful and not forgetful, while the people are only powerful when they remember and they often forger. When Eeveridge spoke to the Earlham Students and said that there had often come times in his life when he had "come face to face with a stone wall a cul de sac" it was easy to imagine that he was at that very moment thinking of the occasion last spring, when his time came the first of the senators to vote against the Aldrich tariff. The people and Beveridge in that particular case, were up against the same stone wall and it remains now with the people and the people of Indiana only whether that stonewall of Aldrichism shall be broken through not once, but many times until it is demolished.

Difference Between Physician And Doctor Told by Young Negro

The distinction between doctor and physician has been clearly defined by one of the porters of the Westcott hotel, who has charge of the passenger elevator. He defines physician to mean something to eat, while doctor means "doctor." The "hop" became a distinguished lexicographer among his "set," Saturday night, when he directed a well known traveling man where he could find a physician. After the supper hour, Saturday night, the traveling man descended on the elevator and during his passage he asked the bell boy where he could find a physician. "Well suh," responded the negro, "Yo'all goes down, west on Main street, for about one square, till you'se see a 'lectric sign

which says Zwissler's Bakery." The traveling man started to where he was directed with the best of intentions. The conversation between the bell hop and the traveling man was overheard by the proprietor of the cigar stand and he called the boy over to the counter. "What did that man want to know, boy?" he asked. "He all wanted to know whar he co'ld find a physic'an and I'se told him to go to Zwissler's Bakery," replied the "hop." "What did you do that for, don't you know that he could not find a doctor there?" yelled the cigar man. "What's dat," replied the boy, his eyes opening and displaying much local color. "I thought dat he wanted something to eat."

AVERAGE MAN IN THE DES MOINES CITY HALL SEEN (Continued From Page One.)

ALDRICH IN THE WEST. From the Columbus Ohio State Journal. Every time good Senator Aldrich makes a speech in the west on the advantages of the central bank scheme the newspaper correspondents , make it the feature of the story that he was courteously treated. From the Providence Evening Bulletin. And Senator Aldrich. is talking again. The country has not yet realized the marvel of the phenomenon, if William J. Bryan should lose the power of articulation he would not nearly as much surprise those who know them both. From the Sioux City Tribune. Senator Aldrich can be trusted to avoid the use of such language as characterized his explosive old yokemate on the occasion of his recent visit to Iowa. From the New York World. If Senator Aldrich will don the cowboy "chaps" presented to him in Omaha when he appears in the senate the western insurgents may take more kindly to him.

management of city affairs in the West. Consequently he received the votes of many who condemned him. "I am a politician," said MacVicar to me. And no one in Des Moines denies it.

Yet he has made the present administration move. Two Average Men. Charles W. Schramm the superintendent of accounts and finances has a long political background behind him. He was formerly assessor and during that time won the admiration of everyone for his sheer honesty. Yet he is a politician and by no means a business man. He would not be selected by a "reform" or "good citizens' movement." He is regarded as an average man and only exceptional in his honesty rather than in brilliant intellect. But Ash, the coal miner councilman, is probably the most ordinary man. Even his former admirers among the coal miners who elected him with the help of the labor organizations are somewhat ashamed of him. He is head of the department of parks and public property. The average Indiana councilman is far and away his superior. And yet this man who was elect

ed with the help of the county political machin of which he was a part in the county assessor's office has been efficient due wholly to the new system. An Estimate. I am quite sure that no one will accuse me of putting too high an estimate on the men who compose the Des Moines council. Yet I have told

not what appears to me solely but what the men of all classes and factions agree on in talking about the council in the city of Des Moines. My own opinion is that the general average is about the same as that of the city officials in the United States. And then I will further say that in my estimation there is no more efficient set of officials in the United States than the Des Moines council. What is the reason? The Des Moines Plan. It gives an incentive to good management. It makes a most efficient public servant out of the average politician.

UNDER THE MIDNIGHT SUN.

A Scene of Wondrous Grandeur That Awes the Beholder. Hammerfest, tJue most northern town of Europe, is bleak and desolate, but seen by the witch light of the midnight sun it touches the imagination more than many of the world's more favored spots, writes Jean Murray in the Four Track News. The traveler passing through Norway finds himself constantly seeking for words that will express his wonder and admiration, but when

at last he stands on the North cape In the light of the midnight sun and looks out oVer the awful solitude he no more longs for words to express what he feels, but stands ana gazes Into the glorious northern light that glimmers on the glittering waves of the arctic sea, while thoughts too deep for words well up in his soul. He feels that after this hour he will have a greater reverence for this wonderful world wherein he is permitted to spend his little span of life, and that if in future years the touch of discouragement and discontent falls upon him he will remember this moment when he stood on the lonely heights of the North cape looking out over the blue Arctic Into what seemed the shining dawn of eternity and feel that it is well to have lived if only for this.

Blessings to American Nation Have Been Manifold, Says Taft

An Eye to Profit. "My wife says she would rather go to cooking school than play bridge whist," said one man. "So would mine," replied the other. "But I'd rather have her play bridge." ,"Is she a poor cook?" "No, but she's a good bridge player?"

Another Authority Heard From. "I'll bet that neither of them found The pole," said Willie Blngs. "They claim that when they looked around They saw a lot of things; A frozen sea and curious lights, But not a word about The house, most wonderful of sights, Where Santa Claus hangs out. "They needn't bring their instruments Nor diaries nor charts, Nor walrus tusks nor sealskin tents, To win our minds and hearts. For only one thing will we pause In our suspicious grim, And that's a note from Santa Claus Which says they called on him."

Washington, D. C, Nov. 1G. Thursday, November 23, was officially proclaimed by President Taft as Thanksgiving Day. The president's proclamation was Issued as usual from the state department, where it received the official seal of the United States. The following is the text of the proclamation. "The season of the year has returned when, in accordance with the recent customs established by our forefathers, the people, of the United States are wont to meet in their usual places of worship for a day of thanksgiving, appointed by the Civil Magistrate, to return thanks to God for the great mercies and benefits which they have enjoyed. "During this past year we have been highly blest No great calamity or flood or tempest or epidemic has befallen us. We have lived in quietness, undisturbed by wars or rumors of wars. "Peace and the plenty of bounteous crops and of great industrial production animate a cheerful and resolute people to all the renewed energies of meneficent industry and material and mortal progress. It is altogether fitting that we should humbly and gratefully acknowledge the divine source of these blessings. "Therefore, I hereby appoint Thursday, the 2oth day of November, as a day of general thanksgiving, and I call upon the people on that day, laying aside the usual vocations, to repair to their churches and unite in appropriate services of praise and thanks to Almighty God. "In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

"Done at the city of Washington, this 15th day of November, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and nine, and of the independence of the United States, the one hundred and thirty fourth. "WILLIAM! H. TAFT. "By the President, P. C. Knox, secretary of State."

THE EGG IN HISTORY.

t la Surrounded by Manr Aneleat Leajenda and Belief. Like many another term in Christian nomenclature, the word "Easter" is derived from pagan sources. The Saxon goddess of light, Estra, was honored with an annual festival at the vernal equinox. The Jewish Passover was also regulated by the March moon, and the resurrection of Jesus occurred at this season. In later centuries the great Christian festival came to bear the pagan name Easter and to be celebrated at a time coincident with the Jewish feast. Since remotest times the egg has symbolized re-creation. Persian tradition has it that the world was hatched from an egg at the season which corresponds to the vernal equinox, for which reason eggs are still given for New Year's presents by the Terslans. The drulds said that the sun, a great egg, hatched from itself the earth and other planets. By the Chinese it is believed that the world was formed of two parts of a great egg. From the yolk man came forth. He then waved his hand, and the upper half of the shell went upward and became the concave heavens; the lower half reversed, making the convex earth, and the white albumen became the seas. When Christianity took over various of the Saxon rites the Taschal eggs of the Jews were vested with a new significance namely, the resurrection of Christ. They were colored red in memory of the blood shed for man's redemption. Chicago News.

Answered Well. "What, sir." asked the large man with the bulging biceps and the ponderous fist as be glared at the slim gentleman who had accidentally stumbled over his toes, "would you say if I were to tell you that you were au awkward ass and an annoying chump?" "I should at once say," replied the Other man, who had enjoyed the advantage of a course in the diplomatic service, "that you had the courage of your convictions." Chicago Record-Herald.
