GIRLS WRITE FOR COW-BOVIIUSBJIIIOS Eastern Young Ladies Would Like to Live in Picturesque "San Antone." POSTMASTER PLAYS CUPID
GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL IN TEXAt CITY - GETS DOZENS OF NOTES ASKING FOR REAL LIVE VAQUEROS. San Antonio, Texas, Jul 11. That ths marriages ns Is promoting against bit will are mad In ' hearen Is the sincere wish of Postmaster. Stevens of this city. Of late letters from young women anxious to find cowboy husbands have been coming Into his ufflce at the rate of two and three a day. Some of them are pathetically alncere and these usually find their way Into the press, advertising expenses being, thus avoided. Recently one young woman admitted that she was S3 and that she bad no great illusions as to cowboys, her principal object being to gel In the country. Of course she would grow to like the proper party. The latest aspirants for cowboy husbands are Miss Julia Schllly and Miss Loralne McCormlck. both of St Louis. ' The former Just wants Postmaster Stevens to put her "In communication with some reliable cowboys," she being quite capable of making her own election afterwards. Miss McCormlck however, goes Into considerable detail and wants Cupid Stevens to manage the affair. She is Just crasy about ranch life, la not afraid of anything, has had lots of proposals since she was 15, can ride any kind of horse for hours and will never marry anybody hut a cowboy because she Is lively and Jolly as cowboys are. She is 18 years of age, has brown curly hair, dark blue eyes and fair complexion Is, according to this description, a real Irish beauty. The young lady confesses a great penchant for horses, ten-mile rides and the shooting up of everything she sees. Miss McCormlck's letter Incidentally has put the postmaster and an enterprising newspaperman on the outs. The letter contained a reaaest not to Jet the fresh newspapermen of San Antonio get hold of it and Postmaster Stevens intended to grant this simple wish of so fair a correspondent, all the more so since he Is Irish himself. .But fate la the form of the regular dopeman Intervened. The latter has for years gone through the desk of the postmaster when be Is absent and In i this manner the young lady's epistle has become public. DEPUBLICMIS GAIN SUPPORT OF LABOR FOf) STATE TICKET (Continued from Page One.) He predicted that labor would turn against the democrat as the result of the bald-faced double cross and that the party would regret its action. Labor Much Incensed. liven this was not sufficient to cause the democratic members of the legislature to carry out their promises to labor. The session went to a close with nothing done in that direction. When the union labor people found for certainty that they were not going to get what they wanted and that the session would be a water haul for them, they were very bitter In their denunciation of the party that had double crossed them. They even went mo far aa to announce at the close of the session that they would form a new party which would be the party of the workingman and which would eee that he got what he ought to have. This talk was strong for a few days, but it soon died out, for the more conservative of the leaders pointed out that a new party would not amount to anything and that organised labor could pin its faith to the republican party In the following campaign. But labor has not forgotten the light which the Democrats gave theui. and thla has led them to volunteer their services to the Republican organisation this year. Recently a mah from one of the cities of southern Indiana, who runs a labor paper came to this city and spent some time in siting up the sit- ' nation. He stated afterward that his paper would support the Republican ticket this year. Beveridge Is Favored. . Senator Beveridge is a favorite among the labor unions, and this is given as one reason why the union members will support the Republican ticket. He has always been a supporter of the movement to put an end to child labor. He has worked during all of his Senatorial career for the enactment of an ample child labor law by Congress. He has succeeded in e HOW'S YOUR ICE WATER? Have you heard of our new methe od of Coll in Refrigerator. The e water Is not exposed to air and e Is ready at all times.

The Sane Story From Four Directions
Many People Getting on the Right Track. From the Fort Wayne Journal Gasette: "Four people came to Fort Wayne, yesterday, from different directions, met at the same point, and told practically the same story regarding the great medicine Root Juice. The gentleman from Van Wert, Ohio, said: "Root Juice has been doing lota of good In Van Wert, the last six months, and the people of my town think there never was a medicine like It Frank Boroff, the druggist, who has the agency, said it Is a pleasure to sell Root Juice, as we never have to listen to complaints, on the contrary, many who buy one bottle, soon return for more, and persuade their friends to try It. It is certainly a great tonic, and has done wonders for many who have suffered years with chronic stomach and kidney troubles.' The man from Columbia City said: 'It don't make much difference where you go, you are sure to hear some one talking about Root Juice. Hundreds of people of my town have tried the remedy, and I haven'theard a single complaint. It certainly must be a great medicine or so many people wouldn't be praising it so highly.' An old lady from Bluffton said: "If you want to hear talk about Root Juice, go to Bluffton. I tell you our people are crazy about it. I heard Mr. Gutelius, our local druggist say he never saw anything like it In his whole life. He said he bad sold nearly 2.000 bottle of Root Juice within the past four months and the people still coming for It in crowds, and none were complaining, but nearly every one praised it, and told of some remarkable good it was doing. The gentleman from Kendall vllle said: "Don't tell me anything about Root Juice. If you want to hear about the wonderful cures this medicine is making, go to my town, and call on O. P. Raber. He has 6old the remedy to hundreds of people and has heard them praising it for several months." Such talk is very common these days, ta this point, as many local people who have tried the remedy are praising it to their friends and neighbors, and seems to have unlimited confidence In its merits. Much can be learned regarding the remedy ot Lukv en & Co.'a drug store. having such a law passed affecting the District of Columbia, but the interests have prevented the passage of a law for the country at large. But he is still at It and declares that he will not quit until he has helped to place such a law on the statute books. .A year ago last June Senator Beveridge delivered an address at the annual convention of the Indiana Federation of Labor at South Bend, and in this speech he made an eloquent plea for the enactment of a ehlld labor law, and his speech made a deep im pression on the delegates. They have not forgotten it and it is said that this speech, together with the double-cross which labor received at the hands of the Democrats at the last session of the Legislation furnish union labor with ample Incentive for supporting the Republican ticket this year. Indiana is one of the best organized states in the union, in the matter of labor organizations. There is not a trade or craft In the state that Is not organized, and practically all of the unions are affiliated with the State Federation of Labor. This does not mean, of course, that all of the working people 'or craftsmen in the state are members of labor unions, but it is a notable fact that when union labor takes a position in politics, the unorganized workers generally assume the same position, and that they all go together. Therefore, the fact that organized labor is this year preparing to support the Republican ticket will mean much towards bringing about Republican success. HEAR SEVERAL ADDRESSES. At a meeting of the Knights of the Golden Eagle at the I. O. O. F. hail yesterday afternoon, Charles W. Jordan, county superintendent, delivered the principal address. Mr. Jordan spoke along lines of fraternal organization. Addresses were also made by L. R. Lenich of Union City, grand chief of the order, and Mrs. J. W.

PREACHES ON FIGHT
Minneapolis Minister Tells His Congregation Why Jeffries Didn't Win". FAVORS MOVING PICTURES Minneapolis, Minn., July 11. The Rev. G. L. Morrill, pastor of the People's church of this city, electrified his congregation yesterday by preaching a sermon on "Why Jeff Lost," treating his theme from the standpoint of the sporting writer. - He was applauded by the congregation at parts of his discourse. "There are five reasons why Jim Jeffries lost the fight to Johnson." said the pastor. "He is too old and he has been out of the game too long. He lived a life of luxury during his period of nonfighting and that did not help him. "Then, again, he was surrounded by a bunch of fool trainers who did not give him the proper advice and spent more time massaging him than in giving him the right kind of training for a fight "Another reason is Jeffries' race hatred. He was so anxious to win from the black man, hated him so vigorously, that he could not do himself justice for fear that he would lose. "I wish that I could see the fight pictures," he said. "I could not see the fight, and I do not think it is right for any governor or any mayor to stop the presentation of the pictures.

CREDIT THE UNION What Organized Labor Does For its Members.
THE RAILWAY MEN'S HOME. Pathetic Incident That Led to the Founding of a Noble Institution. Disabled Provided For From a Sense ef Duty, Not Charity. While movements to prevent industrial accidents and increase the assured compensation to working people and their families for iudustrial injuries and loss of life bare recently been luaugurat-d by state legislatures and some of our greatest manufacturing and railway corporations, we should not fail to credit the trade unions with baring initiated long ago their own efforts to provide for their disabled members and the families ot their dead. The most recent evidence of their self xncriftcin;; and successful struggle to do so is furnished iu the dedication of the Home For Aged and Disabled Railroad Employees fit High land Park. III., near Chicago. The I story of its Inception, growth and com-j pletion Is full of courage, pathos and significance. I A doctor who had formerly been a member of the Drotberhood of Railway Trainmen in the course of bis duties as a physician found one of his old railway comrades iu the Cook county pooruouse. Itesentiug the stigma cast upon the brotherhood by having one of its members an inmate of a public pooruouse. he conceived the idea, of establishing a home where brotherhood men might nnd care and comfort in old age or might be nursed back to some sort of working capacity when disabled. At, first he offered such care to as many as he could take into bis own home, appealing meanwhile to the sereral brotherhoods to support financially a larger and more effective effort. This was in 1S0U. One after another of the public spirited railway union men joined him until in 1903 John O'Keefe devoted his patient energy end good executive ability to building up the institution and securing for it an adequate building plant. He enlisted the four railway brotherhoods' sanction and co-operation. Through the annual voluntary contribution of the divisions and local lodges of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Eugineers. of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen. of the Order of Railway Conductors nnd of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, together with the ladies' auxiliary of each, the home has grown up from two or three little frame cottages to a massive building. Surrounded by five acres of fine land, it stands three stories high above the basement, one wing being 130 feet long by 42 feet wide and the other 62 feet long by 40 feet wide. In design and color scheme it is very attractive. In its provisions for safety, comfort and convenience it is very complete. The construction is fireproof throughout. Electrical elevators convey the crippled men in their wheeled chairs from their rooms to any floor in the building and to the recreation rooms and grounds. The building will nccommodate 10S meu. only thirty-two inmates having previously been cared for. A well equipped hospital with twelve beds and trained nurses is maintained in the building. It was with justifiable pride that the former grand master of the Broth erhood of Railroad Trainmen in opening the dedicatory exercises said: "1 am glad to h?r sn;h a large audi - We Got 'Em Screenings For the Chickens Northwestern Oats "That Am.

ence here twiay iu we us iotf "me ra-. of poverty and put "on the cietbes ot afluence and respectability. We have not provided this home for aged and disabled railroad employees as a matter of charity. It has been and wi;i be a matter of duty with us. The railroad meu of the country owe to their less fortunate brothers a duty that is greater than the duty of being charitable." And yet. beautiful and comfortable as the new home is. it will hardly dissipate the shadows which shut in-a man suddenly thrown from the working world and the activities of life at the very bloom of bis power and earning capacity. One has only to look around to see that they are "broken rails," as with grim, lauguteriess humor they call themselves. They look as if they had been through all the tattles of a great war. They are men with one or both legs gone, some without fingers, others without hands and still others with Injured spines and dark iiues of pain furrowed through their faces. Others still are bearing the additional burden of old age. Upon most of them the 6badows of a broken life, of days cut short or lingering too long, of separation from family, the arrful quiet after the rush and roar of their workaday life and of disappointed hopes deeply overcast the blue in their eyes and the sunshine of their smile. For this injury to the spirit and this loss of life while living this world has no "compensation.' Graham Taylof in Survey. To Change Navy Yard Wages. Assistant Secretary Beekman Win-, throp has directed the various labor boards in the principal navy yards to make a careful comparison of the rates of wages paid by private manufacturing and shipbuilding firms in their vicinity with those paid by the government to its master mechanics, foremen and quarter men in charge. The purpose is to rearrange the wage scales where that appears to be just.

Wild British Cattle. The wild cattle of Great Britalu have become one of the eurtosltes of the bovine race in England. There are very few herds ot them remaining. -and most of these are diminishing from a very natural cause. Of course) they are confined, tn parks and are jealously guarded from any admixture of alien blood. They are as wild as buffaloes and are treated tn the same way as deer. In color they are white, with red ears, and historians assert that they had a large- sharo in the evolution of tbe Shorthorn as tt la known today. It Is certain that the color mentioned very often cropa up quite unexpectedly in our pedigree herds. They will probably become extinct' in t few years owiog to the extreme difficulty of procuring sire unrelated to the herds and yet of the same breed. Farm and Home.
The Scented Court. " The rage for perfumes reached its height during the reign of Louis XV. Throughout the continent his court was known as the "scented court. It was then the custom when giving large entertainment for the hostess to Inform her guests what particular odor she would use for perfuming her rooms, and each guest would use that odor in raeking her toilet. At court a different perfume was used for each day of tbe week. Much more attention' was paid to the use of the perfuui than to soep and water, and cleanliness was not numbered among the virtues of that age.
