Why Don't You Do It?"
Have yon ever attended a ward meeting? A great many men haven't. There was once a very respectable leader of public opinion In this town who declined to go to ward meetings. He said that politics was dirty and that he would not soil his hands with It Perhaps the fact that he would not soil his hands, pull off his coat and go to work to keep things clean helped to keep things dirty. This same man would sit by the hour and explain how things were run against the wishes of the people and bow obnoxious conditions were and how devious were the ways of politicians, of how men ought not to run for office who were known to be bad. of how distressing it is to see men of such character pitted against each other on both tickets with no choice as to which to vote for. It was about this time that this same man came to the conclusion that it didn't make much difference whether he voted or not he finally decided not to dirty his hands with that either. He let somebody else do it and didn't care how dirty things got for he was sure that hia hands weren't dirty but weren't they?
It is true that a ward meeting is usually held in some room in which there are not many symptoms of pleasure. The rooms selected for ward meetings are not usually palaces of delight. One of the most palatial that we have ever seen, actually, had two brass Jardinieres for the reception of masticated tobacco. There is usually a table at one end of the room whereon are a few sheets of paper. Ward meetings are usually scheduled by committees at seven thirty. In troublous times ward meetings have been held by the time that the most of the crowd has assembled. Usually there is a silent 'talk going on in which most of the whispers are between two men. Somebody then moves forward to the platform and announces the object of the meeting. Takes the cigar out of his face and then says that the first thing to do is to elect a permanent chairman and secretary. The secretary is usually somebody selected because of his trustworthiness in case of a dispute over the vote. That is another reason why it is best to have the chairman on ypur side which ever side you happen to be on. Usually ward meetings are conducted by two or three men who know precisely what they want and who have gotten enough of their men together to make it certain that whatever they do they will be supported. Then the machinery begins to work. Some warhorse who has done it so many times that it seems as easy as lighting a match moves that nominations be opened. There is an appropriate pause and nobody wants or seems to want to do anything. That is the time that most of the action is put across. Somebody nominates a name. Another comes to bat and another. Then the man who commenced the nominations gets up and says "If there is no objections I move that the nominations be closed" So the men are elected unanimously.
All assembled either signify in saying "aye" or else they are too sore to kick themselves and they all go home. The secretary telephones in that such and such men have been elected witness another important use of the secretary.
This is the usual procedure in effecting the party organization. They say it takes a great deal of skill to be a boss or to defeat one. But that is the way that people get info the control of things which the citizens who never attend ward meetings protests is all wrong, and which he ia not responsible for. One of the best ways to straighten this sort of thing out particularly here in Richmond in the Republican party is to go and see that the thing is done your way. Get your next door neighbor to go with you. It is a lot easier for two men to get things done than for one. A man arriving at a ward meeting where he doesn't know anyone is about the most unhappy man in the world. He simply has the privilege and displeasure of saying "aye" unless he is a fighter.
The people of this community are progressive. If they wish to control their parties there is but one way in which to do it that is to control them themselves and not to leave it to some one else.
The Persian Sisterhood.
Do you remember the young American thoroughbred Shuster, Morgan Shuster. The man who held two governments at bay in a vain attempt to preserve the credit and integrity of the Perisians. Every young American, particularly'those conversant with the estimable works of one Richard Harding Davis has been on his trail in the newspapers and magazines and taken down the encyclopedia to find out about Persia.
Well a terrible thing has happened to spoil the story. The suffrage movement hit Persia. Three hundred and flfty of the prettiest young Persian girls that ever wore a veil put the veils into the lingerie box and jumped on their ponies. They went with all speed to the Persian capital pulled out their shooting irons and commanded the members of the Persian parliament, then aitting at Teheran to come across for Shuster. But Shuster left. Some explanation is needed from him before he can again remount the pedestal of honor. ?
ENDORSE THE PLAN
Members of the Richmond Lodge of Moose are enthusiastic over the prospect for the establishment of the proposed college at Indianapolis to be conducted under the auspices of the order. A plan to make Indianapolis the location of the Moose college site will be adopted at a mass meeting in that city tomorrow evening when Governor Marshall will speak in behalf of the state and Mayor Shank in behalf of Indianapolis.

Damascus Sword. Damascus swords were made of alternate layers of Iron and steel, so inely tempered that the blade would bend to the hilt without breaking, with an edge so keen that no coat -of mall could resist It and a surface so highly polished that when a Moslem wished to rearrange his turban he used his sword for a looking glass.

Peculiar After Effects of Grip This Year.
Leaves Kidneys In Weakened Condition.
Doctors in all parts of the country have been kept busy with the epidemic of grip which baa visited so many homes. The symptoms of grip this year are very distressing and leave the system in a run down condition, particularly the kidneya which seem to suffer most, as every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neglacted as these danger signals often lead to more serious sickness such as dreaded Brlght's Disease. Local druggists report a large sale on Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which so many people say soon heals and strengthens the kidneys after an attack of grip. Swamp-Root is a great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, and, being an herbal compound, has a gentle healing effect on the kidneys, which ia almost immediately noticed by those who try it. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., offer to send a sample bottle of Swamp-Root, free by mail to every suffer who requests it. A trial will' convince any one who may be in need of it. Regular size bottles 50cts and 81.00. For sale at all druggists. Be sure to mention this paper.

CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY THE OLD CAPITOL BUILDING. By A. W. MACY. The structure In Washington City known as the "Old Capitol Building" has a memorable history. It waa erected in 1800, and was originally deaigned as a tavern, or boarding house. On account of poor management the tavern was closed after a few years. During the War of 1812 the British captured WashIngton and burned aeveral of the public buildings, including the Capitol. The government then purchased this tavern building for the use of congress, and here both houses met for several years. Within Its walls two presidents wars Inaugurated, and . In It John C. Calhoun died. After the new Capitol building was completed the "Old Capitol" was abandoned by congress, and after that It was used for various purposes, hotel, boarding school, etc. In 1861 the government again took ehargs of It, and used It during the Civil war as a prison for captured southern soldiers.

ECCENTRIC BETTING. Curieus Wagers Recorded at White's Club In London. The betting book of White's club In London contains the record of some extraordinary wagers. The Idle gentlemen of 100 years ago could give their successors of today sundry hints on eccentric betting. Here are facsimiles of some of the records. One reads: "Mr. Methuen bets Colonel Stanhope 10 guineas to 1 that a worthy baronetunderstood between them does not from necessity part with his gold ice pails before this day twelvemonth. The Ice palls being found at a pawnbroker's win not entitle Colonel Stanhope to receive his 10 guineas. This peculiar wager was made in 1813. and another one, recorded the same year at White's, may have reference to the same bard up personage. It reads: "Lord Alvanley bets Sir Joseph Copley 5 guineas that a certain baronet understood between them Is very much embarrassed In circumstances. In three years from the date hereof. If one of his bills is dishonored or he Is observed to borrow small change of the chairmen or waiters. Sir Joseph is to be reckoned to lose." Bere is an odd one: "Mr. Butler
to 1 that he is not In the room at I White's with Napoleon in the course I
of the next two years April 24. 1815." History shows that Mr. Butler won that guinea. Christian Science Monitor.

AN OLD SPANISH CUSTOM. Police Still Call Out the Hours of the Night at Los Arenas. Most of the ancient Spanish customs have long since died out. but one is still maintained here, in the village of Los Arenas, near Bilbao, and all light sleepers will, I think, be with me in saying that this could be very well done without, says the British consul at Bllboa. The custom consists of the "serenos" (night policemen) calling out the hours and state of the weather every night, commencing at midnight and finishing at 5 o'clock a. m. I said "calling," but shouting would really be more .correct. One is roused by one of these load voiced policemen singing out beneath the bedroom window, "Las doce, sereno!" ("Twelve o'clock, fine weather.") By 4 o'clock the weather has probably changed, and it may be raining and blowing a regular hurricane, a state of things In itself enough to wake any man up. Yet you are cheerfully informed of the fact by the policeman shouting, "Las cuatro, lloviendo!" ("Four o'clock, raining.") Many inhabitants have tried in vain to get this stopped, for no useful purpose whatever is served by the custom, except, perhaps, to the Spanish Bill Slkes, who considers it a very useful guide to the whereabouts of the nolice.
FORTUNE TELLBKk. I overheard this: "What do you think? I had my fortune told today." "Tea. And what did the woman tel! your "Oh. a lot of things. Do you know. I believe there is something in it. Shisaid I had a fortune coming to m. from the old country, and that's true and 1 am to take a big journey. Ann my life line is crossed by a great sorrow. And "Let me see"Oh. yes. I am to be married twice. A dark haired man and a blond wo man are mixed up in my destiny, ana an enemy will cause me trouble. Th gypsy asked me the date of my birth and my horoscope shows" And both women agreed they had been considerably disturbed by th-
babblings of some swarthy crone u:-
the alleged revelations of some palm reader or star prophet Foolish ones! if one may judge by the advertisements of the clairvoyants and mediums and their like there must be i
host of people who patronize the
fakers.
Silly tribe of bumansl What, think you. do the poor ltlner ants who go faking from place to place know about the future? When reduced to the last analysis they "reveal" very little of a startling character. If you live long enough you are likely to make a journey, if one amounts to anything he will have one or more enemies, sorrow is the common heritage of the race, there are a lot of black haired men and blond women In the world, and most persons have Imaginary fortunes coming. With plenty of trouble in the worm why reach out for more at the end of a fifty cent piece? Witless patrons! How humans have been fooled bv the folk who. from the witch of Endor down, have assumed to "summon spirits from the vasty deep" for a smll price in hand paid! The future is veiled. And happily so. Do yon fancy Pmv Idence has committed Itself to some greasy gypsy or soothsaying peddler Let the future be. The present Is an you need. He who vainly tries to peer down the vista of coming days la as one who starts into a tangled maze of windings where, as old Omar says Tou "come out by the same, dooi wherein you went"
