A BRAVE TOREADOR. One of the Most Thrilling Incidents of the Bull Ring. The famous Spanish toreador Reverte figured In one of the most thrilling Incidents ever witnessed in the arena. It was at Bayonne. After disposing of two bulls Reverte had twice plunged his sword into a third of great strength and ferocity, and as the beast continued careering wildly the spectators began to hiss Reverte for bungling. Wounded to the very quick of his pride, the Spaniard shouted, "The bull is slain!" and, throwing aside his Rword, sank on one knee with folded arms in the middle of the ring. He was right, but h had not allowed for the margin of accident. The woundeo beast charged full upon him. but the matador, splendid to the last, knelt motionless as a statue, while the spectators held their breath in horrified suspense. Reaching bis victim, the bull literally bounded at him. and as he sprang he sank in death, with bis last effort giving one fearful lunge of the head that drove a horn into the thigh ot tho kneeling man and laid bare the bone from the knee to the Joint. Still Reverte never flinched, but remained kneeling, exultant in victory, but calmly contemptuous of applause, till be was carried away to heal him of his grievous wound. Kind te Father.

STEEL TRUST SEEKS TAFT, (I0T COLONEL

Perkins, It Is Learned, Is No Longer a High Priest of Morgan. (Palladium Special.) WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. J 2 ; Sources close to the White Hoube let the word go out today that George W. Perkins, whose alleged activities for Roosevelt's nomination have been advertised through White House agencies, did not speak for the steel trust, but simply as an individual in whatever he may have been tlong politically. Thus, after building a man of straw the President's friends proceed to knock it down. It did not require the White House to supply the infor

trust and does not speak for that alleged "Malefactor of great wealth," his activity can no longer be charged to concern for the outcome of innocuous government suits against that trust. Trust Is For Taft. When Perkins retired several months ago from Wall street activities he et the fact De kllown Publicly that he intended to devote his time in the future to civic matters. Coincident with the announcement from the White House that Perkins does not speak for the steel trust comes the ingenius statement that the officers of the steel trust corporation desire the re-election of Mr. Taft. Immediately the sinister aspect of steel trust ac tivity in politics disappears with the reassurance that the trust is not for Roosevelt but for Taft. It is such politics as is disclosed by the Perkins story that is daily demonstrating to the Republican leaders in congress that President Taft is not available as a candidate of his party for re-election. Following the Perkins story a list of names of Republicans throughout the country, more or less prominent, are placed in the "undesirable" class by the White House news agencies. Their advocacy of Roosevelt or La Follette is ascribed to no worthier motive than an attempt to get revenge upon the President. The President, who invites the confidence of his party representatives in his availability as his party's candidate by proclaiming in public speeches that he is certain to be defeated and retire to Cincinnati to practice law at the expiration of his term, does not appear disposed to give his party leaders credit for implicit faith in his ability as a prophet, even though they may doubt his ca pacity as a candidate. Held Politics. The parading of a list of names of such Republicans as Gifford Pinchot, Governor Stubbs, Charles R. Crane, of Chicago, and Edward M. Lee, of Indiana is disappointed office-seeker because they have pronounced for Roosevelt or La Follette as more likely to be elected than President Taft is regarded by the Republican leaders as very poor politics not to say ingracious treatment to party colleagues. This list was circulated by White House news agencies yesterday and today, and yet it has been only a few days since the president caused the announcement to be made that he would not countenance any attack on Col. Roosevelt or his friends. The alleged activity of Ormsby, McHarg, in the South in quest of Roosevelt delegates is put down by the same agencies as an act of revenge upon President Taft for rescinding a contract as an Indian attorney and the inference is that the president was originally opposed to this contract. The fact is that President Taft approved this contract under which McHarg drew $12,000 a year even after Indian commissioner Valentine and iormer secretary Ballinger had each in his turn disapproved it. The president took no steps to rescind it until after a committee of congress condemned it in a report. McHarg would not have had the contract in the first instance had not the president overruled the interior department and approved it. McHarg was then working for Taft in politics instead of for Roosevelt.

In the southwest of France, between the rivers Adour and Garonne, are long stretches of pine woods, green and cool. Where these pines now stand was a barren waste in the middle of the last century. Sun and wind vied with each other in making the land drier and dustier. Over the stormy bay of Biscay came winds that set up great sandstorms and sometimes buried whole villages. .The whole region was one of hopelessness and despair. Fate was against It. But finally there came a man who acknowledged fate only as something to be overcome. This man, one Bremontier, was an inspector of roads. He began fencing in the desert Ke built a fence and behind it planted broom seeds. Behind the broom seeds he put seeds of the pine. The fence protected the broom seeds, and the broom grew. Then the broom in its turn afforded shelter to the delicate pine shoots. Soon the pines spread, and their tough roots bound the sandy soil together. The first step was accomplished. Then canals were made to drain the wet parts and carry water to the dryThus did one man by patient effort turn a dreary desert into a home for an industrious and healthy population. It was an instance of triumph over fate. New York Tribune. BRAZILIAN BALM "The Old Reliable" is magic for coughs, grip, croup, asthma, catarrh j and quick consumption to the last j stage.

EYES NOW TURNED TO NORTH DAKOTA

(National News Association) FARGO. X. D., Jan. 17. With the assembling of the party leaders in this city it is expected that before the end of the present week some line may be drawn on the probable choice o' the Democrats of North Dakota for the presidential nomination. From the fact that North Dakota will be the first state in the Union to declare its presidential choice tnis year, the eyes of both parties are naturally turned in this direction. The primaries will be held March 17. when both the Republicans and Democrats will vote at the same precincts as in a general election and will declare their preference for the presidential nomination Iiemocrats of the state will incline more to Wood row Wilson than to Judson Harmon, though the Ohio governor has many warm admirers.
