Here's To Them
The Fall Festival Is over. The Fall Festival was the greatest success of any of the three held la this city. ' . . . .. ' "' Richmond showed that It was Panic Proof. The time for a town to show its mettle is the same time that a man should show his mettle when He is up against it. If any town ever was up against hard luck it waa in this Fall Festival. ' As Steve Kuth put it on the back of his wagon: "Eighty hours of Rain Noah only had forty days." t
Then Richmond did show up. ' The men behind it were dead game And who was behind It? The whole town of Richmond and the whole community. For every one of the men who were directing the Fall Festival knew that if the Fall Festival went In the hole that even if it had rained every day the people of Richmond would have come across with hard cash and said with a smile, "It was worth the money."
Worth the money if it had rained every day? Yes. ' ' You have no Idea how the people around Richmond for forty miles are interested In the Fall Festivals and interested In Richmond. They are talking about the way in which Richmond stuck out the eighty hours of rain. They marvel that despite every calamity which could befall such an undertaking that the Richmond men did not give up In despair. Richmond may have had wet feet but it didn't get cold feet.
And here is due praise to those who served. It will be impossible for us to mention one man more than another there were men who were in the employ of the Fall Festival committee (men from out of town) who Jumped right into the game with the Richmond men all these ought to be mentioned. But after all, those who got into the game and went through with it those who have given their time and money for months yes, actually months are they the kind of men who want notoriety? Everyone knows who they are. They are the men in the background who are the sort to have turned up smiling if it had rained from August of this year till November of next year and said: , "It won't rain tomorrow, and well make some slight altera)' in the program and have the Fall Fesjval." - 1 . ' ' f Can't you see that that is what counts? That makes the difference between Richmond anjf a small town of twenty thousand Inhabitants on the eastern borf&r'of Indiana. It's men. , jJ

Brockton fair folk have ceased talking "live stock." They have become interested in a romance Claude Grahame White is apparently in love, with Eleanor Sears, the ath letic society girl, who spends most of her time admiring the daring young cngusn aviator wno expressing en thusiasm over his display of "grit" While the crowd waited for hours to aee an ascension Grahame White and Miss Sears were "doing" the midway and other fair attractions together. Yesterday morning while she was looking over the horses he was at her elbow. She had not hesitated to praise his daring in the air, and he said all kinds of nice things about her grace ful horsemanship. How They Got Acquainted. In Miss Sears Grahame White haa evidently found a type of woman not known in hi a own merrie England. In Grahame White, Miss Sears haa found a man whoae inclinations are very like her own. Her friends deny that they are engaged yet admit the pos sibility. They met at Atlantic City. Miss Sears asked that the young English man be presented. She was invited to "take a trip in my airship." As they went sailing toward the stars they exchanged confidences and became good mends. Then there were other .rides, then an automobile trip.' followed by several , quiet dinners.

Not less than 700 or 800 years. Of that you may be aure. because every tree keeps its own diary.

Mills, Long'a peak guide, observer, philosopher, atudent of trees, counted the ring of a gigantic yellow pine on the Mesa Verde that had 1.047 rings of growth.

PUBLIC SPENDS MORE
THAU ZOHFFICIilLS With Peanuts and Other Nicknacks, Visitors Practically Feed Animals. '" , ; X" ' .'V' ' '''.'' SOME NEED LITTLE ELSE LIONS AND CARNIVOROUS ANI MALS DO NOT APPRECIATE KINDNESSES TO EXTENT OF ELEPHANTS AND MONKEYS. London, Oct 8. In "feeding the ani mals" at the zoo the public spends more than the zoo authorities do on the objects of its generosity and so considerably reduces the zoo's food bill. But so far as the public is con cerned, "feeding the animals at the " is an inaccurate and misleading expression. Visitors to the zoological gardens feed only three species to any appreciable extent the elephants, the bears and the monkeys. Otheriu! mals get only an ojifdhal windfall. in we etecant house, suna cum k"""l;reat Indian elephant is being fed during all the time the gardens are open; it would be auite a feat for a visitor to find Suffa Culli not eating at the public's expense. All along the line of bear dens, too, visitors standing at least two deep are throwing or endeavoring to throw food into the cages the livelong day, and so dense Is the crowd distributing food to the occupants of the monkey house that it is only at intervals that the cages can be approached without a considerable wait. Lions Scorn Bread. The other animals are not fed to any appreciable extent. Of course, the lions scorn buns; the mere offer Is an affront. Nothing but raw meat is any use to them. The sea lions, too, scorn buns, though they gratefully receive fish brought to the gardens by visitors. But still, however great the public's desire to feed the animals may be, the appetite of the "feedable" animals is quite equal to it. Suffa Culli alone, , for Instance, the keeper said, eats on an average of a hundredweight of bun and biscuit day, and as the. huge beast stood there receiving a steady stream of food flung into his open mouth a hundredweight' did not seem much. As a matter of fact, watched care fully between 1:45 and 2:30 p. m. one day recently this elephant received precisely sixty-nine pieces of food which were flung into his open mouth, not counting the food that fell into the cage to be consumed afterward. Watched for- a similar length of him, Jenny, the brown bear in the pit the animal having the reputation for being the largest eater and most fed beast for its size in the gardens re ceived and ate ten pieces of food all she was able to pick up without moving from the position she had taken up upon her back. A LONG WASH DAY. K Lasted a Week, but Came Only Four Times a Year. Every one has beard of the German and Dutch method of accumulating soiled. clothes and of having a wash day only two or three times a year. Not every one realizes, perhaps that the custom was brought over to this country from Holland and that the Dutch settlers long continued its practice. In these days of the ever ready laundry it is strange to read of . the laborious period which came to our New Amsterdam ancestors four times a year. Helen Evertson Smith tells about it In "Colonial Days and Ways." The custom of quarterly clothes washings was maintained notwithstanding our summer heats and the immense quantities of clothes necessary to keep up the state of cleanliness required by Dutch instincts. A New Bnglander who bad married a citizen of New York writes In 1700 of yds practice, which was undoubtedly strange to her: "Grandmother Blum is so deep in her quarterly wash this week that sbs has time only to send her love." ' The washing waa done in an outbouse called the bleeckeryen. where the water was boiled In Immense kettles and all the other processes of the umfldry work carried on. The work required not less than a week, frequently two weeks. During the time preceding this cruelly bard labor the soiled clothes were accumulating in very large hampers of open basketwork. This custom originated the necessity for the great stores of linen with which every bride was provided. Vacant Lot Cheap South 11th, between F and G, ,$200. sewer, street made, quick sale.

President Taft
With the Washington Scribes
BY JONATHAN WINFIELD. Washington. Oct. 8. President Taft who is always "at home" to the corps of Washington newspaper writers. knows them all by name and "Tisits" with them when they call In a body to seeks news. 'The president Is not particularly anxious to give out information. He does not seek personal notoriety in fact he frowns upon any effort to bring him into the lime light of publicity. , When the newspaper men enter his office the president greets them with a hearty welcome and If he has been absent from Washington for some time, exclaims, "I guess I will have to stir around and shake hands with you fellows.' He knows each man and greets him individually. Then he laughs and asks to be told the news. The other day, just after his return for the cabinet "house party" one of the newspaper men who went in to see . the president,- represents a number of Southern newspapers and haa always been a democrat in politics. The president said to him: "I guess you are ready to land the clerkship of the next house." "No government job for -me,"- re plied the correspondent. "Then .you ire not much of a demo crat," replied the presdent, "for ac cording to my understanding every democrat wants an office some time, some where." Attorney General Wickersham is a great story teller. He brought the following tale back from the north-; west and told it at the White Houae. ; A man there Was who was in mortal fear of his wife, especially when he indulged in spirits to excess and forgot to go home until the early hours of the morning. One night he drank until he became hilarious and it was getting In the small hours of the morning that he reached his home. He gained an entrance without arousing his sleeping spouse. Shoeless he climbed the stairway, opened the door of the bedroom, entered and closed It after him without being detected. ' Just as he was about to get into bed, his wife, half aroused from her slumber, turned sleepily and said "Is that you, Fido?" The husband, telling the reBt of the story, replied: "For once in my life I had real presence of mind. I licked her hand." Secretary of State Knox has practically decided that his cherished plan of visiting China during his term In the Taft cabinet will not materialize. The beneits that have ac crued to United States business men through the visit of Senator Root to South American countries when , he was serving as secretary of state under President Roosevelt and the ex cellent results attained in bringing this country and the ' republics of South America to a better understanding as to the intention of the United States to faithfully play foster father to them and without the selfish designs prevent European nations from oppressing them, were the motives that prompted Secretary Konx to contemplate the visit to the Orient. China has great possibilities in trade for the United States. China believes that the United States is her one. best friend. A visit of a secre tary of state would be of value in bringing about closer relations between the countries. The proposed journey of the secretary has, however, been practcally abandoned. It ' is said that If It had not been for the Nicaraguan troubles of the last year the journey would have been under taken before this time. One of the problems with which Major General Wood, chief of staff of the army is wrestling is what to do with two army officers who have been convicted of crime. - It is a problem ' which confronted Major General Franklin Bell when he was chief of staff and which he left as a heritage to General Wood. The officers are Captain Peter C. Hains, who Is serving a term In Sing Sing for the killing of William Annis, and Captain Thomas Franklin, who has been convicted of embezzling funds belonging to cadets at West Point But for the fact that they are not rendering any service and are not receiving any pay, both men are full-. fledged army officers. Neither has been dismissed from the service. No ,
