TREATY IS FAVORED By the People of Western Canada. (American News Service) Winnipeg, Man., Jan. 30. As far as Western Canada Is concerned the reciprocity agreement could not please the masses better. It will put millions of dollars Into the pockets of farmers. Every bushel of wheat will be worth from 5 to 12 centa more than it has been. Barley will again become a desirable crop. Live stock all round will be worth more than It has been and will give a great Impetus to mixed farming. This means Increased values to farm lands In the west where farm .lands are much lower proportionately than they are In the east and In the United States. Real estate values in the cities and towns of the west will stiffen because of the Improved outlook for agriculture and Indeed this tariff agreement means more for the Canadian west than any one else. HENRI ROCHEFORT - REACHES RIPE AGE (American News Service) Paris, Jan. 30. Henri Rochefort, for many years the foremost editor and publicist of France, celebrated his eightieth birthday anniversary today. The career of M. Rochefort has been a tumultuous one from his youth. In 1865 he began the publication of a paper through whose columns he made violent attacks upon the Imperial family. The paper was suppressed and M. Rochefort escaped prison by fleeing to Belgium. When perimt ted to return to France a few years later he resumed his editorial onslaugths against the government and was again committed to prison. On the proclamation ' of the republic a year later he was released by the mob. The' climax of his career came in 1S71 when he was tries by court martial for his attacks on the government and sentenced to imprisoument for life. He was triusported to New Caledonia, but affected his escape In 1874. The general amnesty of 1880 permitted him to return to Paris where he has since sptn? his tlmo chiefly in attacking all governments In turn. A BRUTAL SYSTEM. The railroads in our country kill an average of S.000 persona a year and Injure eight times as many more, most of whom are worklngmen. Can It be possible that there Is no remedy for this wholesale slaughter) Is there no compassion for the women and the children who remain? Must worklngmen themselves pay the price not only for their personal mishaps, but out of their earnings pay also for the mishaps of their fellow workers? Shame on any law or system which penalizes the workers for accidents for which they are responsible to only a limited extent, freeing from practically all care and responsibility those whose Interest are being served by faithful men who gave their lives so that the t Z world might be a gainer. Rev. Charles Stelzle.

ORDERS JASE TRIED The Mayor Acts on Gas Mains Question. City Attorney Gardner stated this morning that the case of City against the Light, Heat and Power company, enjoining them from the use of the old natural gas pipes, would probably be called for trial this week. Mayor Zimmerman insisted this morning, that the case be brought to trial as soon as possible. : The city and company attempted to "get together" some time ago, regarding rates, and a new franchise, to be adopted before the expiration of the company's franchise, in four more years. This was unsuccessful. Mayor Zimmerman still holds that a separate franchise should be adopted for the use of the old natural gas mains. Some delay In the trial of the case has been occasioned by the possibility of the state legislature creating a public utilities commission. It is believed, from expressions made by different members of. the board of works that a public utilities commission would be favored by them. HE HAD THE RIGHT TO CARRY REVOLVER John Moore, of Hamilton, O., who was arrested Saturday afternoon for carrying concealed weapons and for attempting to kidnap one of his own children, was released as there seems to be no case against the man.

the lips of a girl who has been blind

from birth were awaited by a throng that surrounded the home where Margaret Shipley lay . today. For more than ninety hours she has been In a i trance-like condition ' awaftlug a mirlcle. the restoration of her sight. , The young woman , was not" left alone for an instant' today. : Her guardians, Mr. and Mrs.' Charles Haider: man, - were confident; that her sight : would be restored by night They as- j serted this had been shown by the messages received by, the girL At-1 tired in white with her sightless eyes wide open. Miss Shipley reclined up-! on a couch as motionless as a corpse. ' Twelve-year-old Ednd Tauber, to whom came this girl the first message that she believed to promise sight, sat as she has since the strange drama began, at the . foot of the couch, whiteclad as her companion. Mrs. Haiderman, likewise in white, moved about quietly , keeping constant watch over, her charge. ' . - ; Word From Heaven. She- said that messages had been received by the young woman rom Heaven. Visitors were allowed to remain only for a glance. : When a visitor chanced to look upon her at a time when her eyes opened after an apparent period of sleep, they hastily drew back from the weird room and left the house at once. The eyes seem to see, being but thinly covered with a light glaze. It is this glaze, or scum, which she and her companions believe will be removed by a miracle and which removal vill allow her to see first since she was born 25 years ago. The blind girl commanded at the beginning of the trance to stop work until the miracle and this Mr. Halderman obeyed. . The girl has fasted now for a week, taking no nourishment except water. She ate her last meal on Sunday evening of last week. She declares she will eat nothing until her sight is restored. - Neither she nor her friends have fear of death by starvation. They say she is sustained by the power which placed her In her present condition. . "The hand of God is at work," they declared. "Let no mortal Interfere." MINISTERS FAVOR CHILDLABOR LAW Ministerial Association Urges Wayne Representative tO Vote for ItMembers of the Richmond Ministerial association at the regular meeting today voted unanimously in favor of a motion, instructing, the officers to communicate with Wayne county's representatives in the legislature, notifying them of the sentiment of the association as heartily endorsing the hill restricting child labor and urging them to vote for its passage. A number of members expressed themselves on the subject of child labor and it was the consensus of opinion that the enactment of the measure soon to be passed upon by the legislature, would go a long way toward blotting out this evil In Indiana and remedying the present conditions. Other than this nothing but routine work occupied the attention of the ministers. ' . ' ' Ego. '.' An ego is a Latinized I. All men are created egos and endowed by their Creator with certain Inalienable somethings of which neither statute, ukase, edict. Injunction, beggar, magnate, book agent nor promoter can deprive them. lie who steals my purse steals trash, but he who filches from me my ego. takes that of which he. already has enough and makes me not at all. Women without votes have egos and, strangely enough, would still have them if they secured the votes; hence egos are not a political Issue. An ego Is what a man is when- he has nothing and Is nothing else; that Is to say, he Is then first person singular and no particular gender. An ego is neither soul, body, spirit, family, country nor race. It is neither moral nor pathological. A criminal has Just as much ego as a parson and no more. ; Some egos are better than others, chiefly our own Life. Postpone all Dry Goods Daylng.

today. "As we now understand it

he dfty on our exports will be bene Hted just to that extent. I believe this lust the entering wedge in reciprocal negotiations, and that future agreements of a similar nature wlU follow." . .Mr. Strattan made the above state ments today when Questioned regard ing the recent reciprocity agreement between Canada and the .United States which has just been submit ted to. the senate by President Taft. Owing to the fact that he did not have a complete knowledge of the terms of the treaty Mr. Strattan said that .he could not speak in detail as to the benefits resulting to the company, providing that the agreement Is approved by t'ae senate. Writes to Beveridge. Mr. Strattan has written Senator Beveridge, commending him for his stand in indorsing the agreement.. He has asked that he be sent a copy of the agreement so that it will be defi nitely known to what extent the du ties on the products of the company are reduced.-. The wheat fields of the Canadian Northwest have long afforded a splen did, field for threshing machines and other machinery manufactured by the local company,' but the company has practically been kept out of the field because of the duty which, added to the cost of transportation, made the cost too high. The reduction will go a long way towards lifting the barrier and enabling the company to do an extensive business In that country. According to the agreement there is no reduction in the case of Canadian agriculture Implements entering the United States, which will continue to pay 15 per cent, But the American implements entering Canada will do so at 15 per cent where they now pay 17 to 20 per cent FIRE DESTROYED GRAIN ELEVATOR Big Building, Under Con ! struction Near Milton, Burned to Ground.

Senator Fratier presented in the senate today the ' minority report on the Lorimer case,1 fully concurring In Beveridge's report,.' - Frailer explained his course in the Lorimer matter. He was absent from Washington when the action of the committee was taken, he said, - and; then gave notice of a minority statement. His investigation led him to believe that while the testimony failed to show that Lorimer was a party to the bribery, he was a beneficiary. He maintained that of the 10$ votes cast for the senator four were confessedly by bribery and three other members of the legislature were implicated. Without seven tainted votes he said Lorimer would have had only

101 votes or one less than a majority. LAFOLLETTE IS OUT. Washington, Jan. 30.

Says a writer in the Scientific'' American: "A wonderful spectacle Is presented by the sudden apparition of an insect's wing at the completion of its metamorphosis, i The transformation of the grub lato the butterfly, though familiar. Is none tbe less amazing, but tbe evolution of the active aud ' gossamer winged dragon fly from its ugly and sluggish aquatic pupa Is still more Impressive. - Early on a May morn ; lag the pupa emerges from Its cocoon at the bottom of a ditch, swims on its back by paddling with its long haired paws to the stem of an aquatic plant and climbs up out of the water. Then, after a momentary pause, the skin suddenly bursts open and. tbe perfect Insect appears, with closely . folded wings, which soon unfold and assume their final form. . "The older naturalists thought that the Insect 'swallowed air,' with which the wings were inflated. ' In realitythe air is absorbed in the dlgestltve organs, causing an Increased blood pressure, which mechanically expands . the ' wings. v The presence of dew Is 1 also necessary; hence the first flight is" always made-at dawn.
