Ihis Is My 61st Birthday WILLIAM M. 8LOANE. William M. Sloane, Seth Low Professor of History at Columbia university, was born in Richmond. Ohio, Nov. 12, 1850, and was graduated from Columbia university in 1868. In 1873 h became secretary at Berlin to George Bancroft, the celebrated historian, and retained that position for two. years, after which he was appointed a professor at Princeton, lie remained there until 1896, when he was appointed to his present position at Columbia University. Professor Sloane has written a number of important historical works, including a history of Napoleon Bonaparte and "The French Revolution and Religious Reform."

In Longfellow's Journal, in which he chronicled dally things that came under his observation, he notes that upon certain occasion he attended a church where the minister took as his object "Progress." He was very flattered when the latter quoted about half or the "Psalm of Life." After repeating the verses the minister said, "I could never read that poem without feeling; the inspiration with which it was written." To tills incident Longfellow adds: "But I bad the conceit taken out of me on the evening of that day, when I happened to meet a lady at Prescott's and In our conversation he referred to the sermon in the morning and added, 'He quoted some beautiful verses, but nobody knew from whence came the quotations.' " Wanted to Coma Back. "Too won't make any mistake In buying this car, Mr. Jugglngs," said the agent. "It is the best in the market. There isn't any come-back to our output." "Then I don't wont it," retorted Juggins. "There wasn't any come-back to the last car I had. and I had to walk back. Haven't you anything you can ahow me with a few return attach tents?" Harper's Weekly. The Dandruff Germ AND THE GUINEA PIG. When Dra. Lasaer and Bishop made a pomade by mixing scales of dandruff and vasaline. which they afterward rubbed on a guinea pig, they were contributing to science more than they knew. The application of the aalve caused the pig to lose its hair and become bald. Thia was merely one of the preliminary steps which made possible the discovery of Newbro's Herpicide. After establishing beyond question the existence of the dandruff germ, a remedy was needed to kill this parasite. There was nothing which would do this until Newbro's Herpicide was placed upon the market. Being the first recognised remedy for dandruff it haa long been called the "original remedy." Herpicide kills the germ, prevents falling hair and stops itching of the scalp. Don't take a substitute; you can always get the genuine article. Herpicide is for sale at drug stores. Applications may be obtained at good barber shops. One dollar size bottles are guaranteed. 8end 10c In postage or silver for ; sample and booklet to The Herpicide Co.. Dept. R Detroit. Mich. A. G.

"Men And Measures.'9

Senator Lorimer has at last come to be an instrument of good. His case proved to the people of small communities like Richmond that there was a very solid reason why the votes on important measures in the highest lawmaking body in the world were turned dead against them. When it was proved even on the floor of the senate in the last and most important work of Senator Beveridge that the man Lorimer was the paid agent of Big Business sitting in his bought seat they believed what they had been very loathe to believe be ore, that corruption ran through the very nation, from city to capitol. It is this sort of feeling which has alienated everyday men from their parties. For let it be understood that this does not mean simply the Republican party, but the Democratic party. They are dead tired of putting up one party candidate, believing his promises, and then having to rebuke him only to find that the man with whom they rebuke him is actuated by the same impulses and controlled by the same wires. The reason that the people have left the party is because they have had its machinery stolen away from them. The ward meeting and convention system, the Indirect election of senators, the lack of means to remove those officers who deliberately disobey the expressed wishes of the people, and the promises which they have received all these things and many more are at the bottom of the feelings of intelligent men everywhere.

The action of the progressive shop men in Richmond in organizing a Hoosier State Progressive league has all these things in mind. We do not know how the rest of the state will feel about it. but we should say that wherever there is a city with a bad administration or a hard public service fight; wherever there is an intelligent class of citizenship which knows that it can not compete with professional politicians in the crafty manipulation of party machinery; wherever there is an accurate understanding of how Aldrieh and Cannon manipulated the congress of the United States for the profit of over protected industries, wherever arrogant bosses sit in the seats of the mighty we think th- idea of a league for mutual protection is going to find a place for lodgement. Such a league is not of a partisan character indeed the party that merits the indorsement of the peo !e would have everything to gain and nothing to lose from the organizatio of common everyday citizens who wish to protect their rights. And it is equally certain that no hing can stop the spread of such a movement unless the parties undertake their proper work which they have laid by. The spirit of the progressive leagues, which have been formed all over the country, is of this yort, and the people have seized hold of the party machinery, or whore they could not do this they have put a ticket of their own into the field. The victory of the Keystone party in the city election of Philadelphia was a case which forced the people to put a ticket of their own into the field. And the people won. The reason that progressive leagues are usually construed as La Toilette movements is because men like La Follette have nothing to fear from the unprejudiced action of the people neither has a man like Woodrow Wilson in the Democratic party. The idea of the Hoosier Progressive league may well be that of Woodrow Wilson in speaking for the Keystone candidate in Pennsylvania: "Here I am, a Democrat, two kinds of a Democrat, born and convinced come to speak for a man who calls himself a Republican, but one between whom and myself I cannot see the difference. A few years ago we were divided into hostile party camps, where we determined how to act by our habitual actions. In 1910 people began to choose men and measures, and not parties, and that is going to continue."

MRS. JENKINSON GAVE $1,000 BOND

Mrs. Narcissa Lewis Jenkinson, widow of the late Isaac Jenkinson who sustained a fatal accident on October 25, has qualified as executrix o fthe estate with the filing of a thousand dollar personal bond. Mrs. Jenkinson is the sole heir. Wer.t Him One Setter. Philander Chase Knox was a diplomat long before he became secretary of state. A good many years ago he and ex-Presideut Harrison represented a group of big railroads in the middle west in n extremely important case, which they won. Two months later they met in New York. "Well," said Harrison with some pride. "I charged those railroads $25.000 and got it!" "I congratulate you." said Knox quietly. "1 charged them $123,000. 1 also got It." New York Tribune. Old High Finance. Frenzied finance is not exclusively a habit of recent years. At the Riggs National bank in Washington, says the Popular Magazine, there is carefully guarded a proof of the foregoing assertion. Itegnrding the proof there Is told this story : One winter morning Henry Clay, finding himself in need of money, went to the Riggs bank and asked for the loan of $2."0 on his personal note. He was told that, while his credit was perfectly good, it was the inflexible rule of the bank to require an indorser. The great statesman hunted up Daniel Websfr and asked him to indorse the note. "With pleasure." said Webster. "But I need some money myself. Why not make your note for $500. and you and 1 will split It?" This they did. And today the cote Is in the Riggs bank unpaid. For many years the Japanese had little or no use or nails, but with the introduction of and the acceptance of western ideas, the use of nails became quite general, so that now there are several foctories in that country devoted to the manufacture of nails. One is now in the course of erection which will be equipped with the most modern machinery and will have a capacity comparable to that of some of the largest mills in the world. N HISTORY'

A WOMAN BERI.-O HIM. A correspondent asks iue. "What wa the greatest force in the life of (Jeor;; Washington V" I am giad to answer iu a word: His mother. George Washington was in a pe: u iar sense a "mother's boy." Hi father died when he was but ten yea: old. leaving the widow with six obi dren. of whom George was the o!df and upon her firstborn Mary Washin: ton put the impact of her forcef; character. She was a great woman. At the age of sixteen George wanti to "run away" and e-?: adventure but his mother kept a list-it grip the boy's affections, cud lis st:;yi Shortly came a great test. The thunder clouds of black w burst with a startling crash over tL devoted heads of the American coit uists. The Washington were wealth, landowners. 'Which side would the.' take? The sou of Mary Washington, nohij backed by his patriot mother, cast hilot with the "ragged Continentals." When the Continental congress turn ed coward, when he was constantly beset with spies and jealous generals it was the spirit of his self sacrificing mother, joined to his own indomitable patience, that kept him on the field of honor. And later When the long red years of war were ended it was the mother spirit within him that asked no greater reward than peacefully to retire to his quiet farm. He was no conquering Napoleon. It is gratifying to know that Mary Washington lived to see the boy of her pride made the first president of the republic. Where got he that self abnegation, that high courage and faith? There was a woman behind him. Do you remember that old rule of physics about finding the striking force of a moving body? You multiply the velocity of the moving body if 1 correctly remember by the weight of the body, and that gives the striking force. So of a man. Multiply his best endeavors by his heredity (his ancestors) and you get the impact, the striking force of that man upon the society of his day. Therefore to get the striking force of George Washington you must multiply the man by his mother. FEAR. OF THE MOB. Fear of ridicule has ruined many mortals. Captain John Frisbie, a "bird man." on the day he had been advertised to make a demonstration discovered that his biplane was not working properly. Because of the defects of the machine he decided he would not go up in it. Whereat the crowd, which had paid to see the flight, jeered Frisbie. They called him coward and faker. Personal vanity and dread of un popularity made the man change his mind against his better judgment. Dread of ridicule moved him to risk his life. Frisbie went up. He came down dead! Had he been possessed of the courage of his convictions he calmly would have faced the crowd with his an nouncement and turned his back upon it. But with a physical courage that did not fear to risk his life he lacked the moral courage to disregard the taunts of a mob. He feared ridicule more than death. Like many another, he lacked a proper conception of real courage. He Is not the brave man who does things because somebody calls him a coward. On the contrary, he Is the coward who is moved against his sense of right doing by dread of ridicule. Recklessness is not bravery. Foolhardiness is not courage. The brave man is the man who cannot be driven to desperation or the committal of a wrong by the derision ot one man or of 10,000 men. The crowd does not care. If the Frisbies can be taunted into recklessness and Incidentally get killed in giving the crowd its "thrill" why. that Is the lookout of the Frisbies. Later indeed the crowd may indulge a cheap remorse at the funeral. But that Is rather late to help the dead Frisbies. If need be stand alone! Is the choice between getting killed by going up when you ought not to go or being killed by the crowd? Then let the crowd do the killing aul save your convictions. On th Penee.

The popular impression that the full moon has the power to clear away clouds dies hard notwithstanding the almost unanimous pronouncement of modern scientific investigators against it. This may be largely dne to the fact that so great an authority in his day as Sir John Herschel regarded the idea as probably correct. Mr. W. El Us. after a study of the Greenwich observations, suggests that the impression may be due to the fact that a change from the cloudy to the clear state Is much more likely to attract attention when there i3 a full moon in the sky, and many meteorologists agree with him.

OFFICIALS SEARCH FOR VAST FORTUNE Believed to Have Been Put in a Vault by a Bank Wrecker.

(National News Association) NEW YORK, Nov. 11. Confirmation of a story that David Rothchild j who wrecked the Federal Bank in jli04, deposited part of the $422,000 loot in the Riverside branch of the i Corn Exchange bank at seventy secj ond street and Columbus avenue, was obtained today. I Acting upon information given by I Mrs. Eugene Batton, of St. Louis, who was Rothchild s wife at the time he was sent to prison, District Attorney Whitman will begin a search for the money which Mrs. Batten said may be hidden in a safety deposit vault in Jersey City. According to Laurence Dunham, manager of the Corn Exchange branch a man resembling Rotchild deposited a package, believed to have contained $237,000, in a safety deposit vault in the bank on April 14, 1904 He returned the next day and took out the package. Some time, he later, when secret service agents visited the institution in search of the money, the vault was found to be empty. Mr. Dunham said: "Rothchild was known to many of ihe employes of the Corn Exchange bank and he evidently realized that the story of his visit there would be ! told to the police. For that reason he took the money away the next morning. It is more than likely that he took it to New Jersey." According to Mr. Dunham, the district attorney's office has known of this since 1905 and he said he was surprised that the matter had not become public before. He knows, he said, that federal officials have visited almost every national bank in the country in a search for the money. 'i . j .. . , ... .. i hiussia.

They are five iu number and are located In Paris. Lille. Lyons. Toulouse and Angers. But the University of France is an entirety different organization. It is the otluial school. It is centralized in Paris and hss under it a vast mtdti tude of establishments, faculties, col lege and primary schools, distributed over the whole surface of the country Directly or indirectly they all depeiu! on the government. The university was established by Napoleon, and in spite of certain modi Ilea t ions which it has undergone d;ir ing years it is the same today In it essential elements as the day ho founded It. .lust as lie established the entire civil administration, with its prefects, subprefects. judge, ministers of finance, so he created in 1S01 j this vast educational organization, with its countless professors, who control the entire Intellectual training of Fra nee.

RAILWAYS AND DOGS. Alike In One Respect In Sardinia, The Both Are Perils. Sardinia is nn islnnd of many perils. One of them, we gather from the experience of Mr. Crawford Flitch, the author of "Mediterranean Moods. Is the railways. "The engine." he says, "is continually making frantic dashes for the scenery. On the line to Tortolt I made four journeys and had three accidents. On one occasion, after a car had Iwn wrecked, the various employees gathered round the wreckage and spent the remainder of a sultry afternoon in bitterly disputing the proper apportionment of blame for the accident. As ir was lmiossible to proceed that evening I speut the night at the railway station and enjoyed a comfort that found nowhere else in the island." Another peril is the dog, who do not hesitate to attack a stranger, even when he is walking peaceably upon the highroad. "The breed is particularly ferocious, and it is said that the peasants have a way of stimulating their ferocity by tying a bladder filled with blood to the neck of a dummy man and encouraging the animal to spring at the neck and tear open the bladder."

In accounting for the great speed attained by some aeroplane drivers, it is ex,.ained that the velocity of the air movement rapidly increases as one i'scends into the higher regions. With the wind moving along at a comfortable speed of twenty-five miles an hour on the surface, it is double that at half a mile, and at one mile it is seventy-five miles an hour. At a height of three miles it is moving at the rate of 225 miles an hour. TRIAL
