Editor of The Palladium: If. in Richmond, there are officers whose business it Is to prevent cruelty to animals, they should certainly have their attention called to the practise of certain people of reining their horses' heads so high as to make them suffer. Some horses seem to endure it because they have learned that their manifestation of pain has received no attention; most others become more or less nervous and ill-natured. If it could be enforced there should be a law requiring that those who rein their horses to an unnatural position should themselves be reined in like manner with iron bits in their mouths and their heads pulled up and back in a painful position, . in which the suffering would increase with each hour, for as long as they kept their horses in such position. It would be a novel and instructive sight to witness these persons going along the street with their heads forcibly pulled back and up, so they could not help themselves, or see where they were going. The horse is the noblest of our domestic animals, and ' humane people would rather see him killed than abused. To wilfully cause pain indicates a bad disposition. I. B. ARNOLD.

1 his Is My 64th Birthday

BEN F. CALDWELL. - Ben. F. Caldwell, who has been a conspicuous leader in Democratic politics in Illinois for many years, was born in- Qreene County, that State, August 2, 1848.

After serving several terms in each branch of the Illinois legislature Mr. Caldwell was elected to Congress In 1898. He served four terms in Congress and voluntarily retired when renomination without opposition was assured. In the Illinois primaries last spring he was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor, but was defeated by former Mayor Dunne of Chicago.

Of all the spectators who thronged Tomlinson Hall yesterday during the first state convention of the National Progressive party, those most impressed with what they saw and heard were a number of Republican and Democratic party leaders, for in that hall they witnessed the strange sight of a free people, aroused from their lethargy, casting aside their political shackles, declaring war on their former masters and adopting a platform which means as much to the citizens of Indiana as the Declaration of Independence did to the oppressed colonists. "1 see now who we will have to fight in the coming campaign," gravely remarked Representative Cravens, Democratic floor leader at the last legislature following the adjournment of the convention. "We must fight the Progressives with all the power at our command. What I saw today was most impressive wonderful." Those men who attended the convention in Tomlinson Hall yesterday as delegates or spectators gathered for one great purpose to form a battle line to sweep the state and restore to the people representative government. It will not be a difficult task. There will be thousands of recruits pour into the ranks of this truly Party of the People. It has been a little over a month since the movement for organizing a Progressive party was launched at Chicago, and in that short space of time the party has grown to such proportions that today It has taken the place of the once all powerful Republican party as the only rival the Democratic party fears, and it fears the fighting Bull Moosers more intensely than it ever did the Republican party, for this new political organization stands between it and its first opportunity in years to seize the spoils of office held by a party which now consists of Penrose, Fairbanks, Watson, Kealing, Aldrich, Crane, Barnes, etc., and a handful of followers; and this new party, this Party of the People, is also feared by the Democrats because it is recruiting heavily from Democratic ranks. At Indianapolis yesterday the Progressive citizens chose their leaders, mapped out their plan of campaign and shouted a battle cry at the conclusion of Mr. Beveridge's remarkable speech of acceptance that could be heard for blocks on the noisy thoroughfares of the capital city, and today the army of the people is in the field, thoroughly organized and equipped to win a glorious victory at the Battle of Ballots next November. State after state is being organized. Mr. Citizen has arisen in hlB might and has declared "I am master. I will rule," and on the fifth day of August, Mr. Citizen will send his trusted representatives to a convention at Chicago, where the national organization of the Progressive party will be affected and Theodore Roosevelt nominated for President. This wonderful work will have been accomplished In less than sixty days' time and President Taft will again be convinced that the American people are impulsive and not to be trusted in the management of their own affairs.

The Women for A Hies. The Indiana Progressive party enters the field with the good women of the state as allies. The Progressives have openly declared that they believe their mothers, wives and sisters are as competent as themselves to exercise the right of suffrage, and the woman's suffrage plank in the Progressive platform is one of its most powerful features. But this plank does not alone attract the women of Indiana. Every woman stands for good government and the Progressive platform adopted at Indianapolis yesterday Is one of the most comprehensive declarations for good government ever written. Indiana women will play an active part in the campaign in this state this fall, and they are a political force the old parties fear exceedingly. They know what the women of Oregon, California and other western states have done. One of the most effective features of Fred Landis' brilliant address before the convention was on the subject of suffrage for women. We reproduce it: "Writh respect to woman suffrage, there is no sex in common sense, and common sense is the greatest, moet valuable and the scarcest asset In public government. Why, the average Indiana mother solves more real problems in a week than all the bipartisan bandits of Indiana in a lifetime. (Applause.) She must be a better conversationalist than Guggenheim. (Laughter.) She must be more lovable than Big Steve of Colorado. (Applause.) She must stand for a better civilization than Penrose of Pennsylvania. (Applause.) She must be more upright than Aldrich of Rhode Island. (Applause.) She must be more chaste of speech than Cannon of Illinois. (Laughter and applause). She must have a better conception of the marriage relation than Smoot of Utah. (Laughter and applause.) She must be more surpassingly faithful than those Indiana butlers of big business, whom it is unnecessary to name, but who are affectionately referred to in the House of Corruption as our Indiana crooks. (Applause.) The Indiana mother must raise her children with the greatest care; she must throw about them every possible safeguard lest in future years they fall from grace and become members of the national Republican committee. (Laughter and applause.)

DRILL TEAWMS READY

To Go to Cleveland and Bring Home Big Prize.

The drill team of the Wayne Aerie of Eagles, which for months has been practising a set of drills for the national convention this month, will leave Tuesday for Cleveland, Ohio, where the tourney is to take place. Sunday morning about thirty members of the local lodge of Eagles will leave this city with their families, for a trip to the lakes, where they will enjoy themselves until the convention is called to order Tuesday. The drill team consists of sixty members, and in previous drills, has taken several cups and prizes. Last evening a practise drill was given at the club rooms, to which the public was invited. Several hundred people accepted the invitation.

OLD TALLY STICKS.

Antique Stylos. Masculine fashions are often perpetuated through the gradual acquisition of a gentleman's cast off clothes by his servants. A powdered footman of today wears the costume of a George II. dandy, and the present lord mayor's coachman Is dressed exactly like a nobleman of the time of George III. A page boy, with his three rows of buttons, wears what was known in the early years of the nineteenth century as the Dutch skeleton suit, the fashionable wear for boys of the upper classes. London Standard.

Their Use In England Was Abolished With Disastrous Results. In the museum attached to the standards department of the board of trade. In Old Palace yard, London, a box containing a number of the old exchequer tally sticks, upon which, until an early period in the last century, it was the custom to keep the national accounts. The tallies were notched sticks of seasoned willow or hazel, the notch on the edge representing the particular amount the smallest for pence, a larger notch for shillings and the largest for pounds. The system, which was first introduced by the Normans in the year 10G6, was not finally abolished until the reign of William IV., and then only with disastrous results. An order was

promulgated that the accumulated tallies, amounting to many thousands, were to be destroyed, and they were accordingly burned in one of the stoves in the house of lords. By some means

or other the stove became choked, the

paneling caught fire, and In the end the whole of the palace of Westminster, with the exception of Westminster hall, was destroyed. Some years ago a number of these old tally sticks were discovered in Martin's bank, in Lombard streetNew York Tribune.

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A.NYE.

A FALSE JUDGMENT. "lie is an old tlghtwadr I overheard that much and after ward this further arraignment: "I tell you he is the stingiest man it town. He Insists on the last red cent that is coming to him. He is as close as the bark on a tree, and it is wel known he gives away nothing in worthy cause." Severe? But only half true. I know the man referred to. He it close in his dealings and Insists upor payment of what is due him, but ht is prompt In the payment of what h owes, meeting his bills when due. Ht Is honest, and his credit is good, whlct cannot always be said of some whe have the reputation for generosity. And there is another phase of the matter. This man who Is held to be close fisted has a large family. Thougt fairly prosperous, he needs all hli money. He slaves and saves, not fot himself, but for his family. Perhap he would prefer a reputation for generous giving, but because of those dependent upon him he must drive hard bargains and insist upon prompt payment. More than thatOne of his children Is a life cripple. Another is Incapable of making his way in the world. And also he Is educating an orphan niece. Those who called this man a "tightwad" did not know the facts. Stingy? On the contrary, my friend lavishes all his strength and tenderness and money on those who need his first and greatest care. Without regret he gives himself to severe labors and close calculation for their sakes. He is not a demonstrative man, but his Intimate friends know his big heart always yearns over his helpless ones. Stern and cold? Possibly. lie Is not of the sort to wear his heart on his sleeve. For years he has buffeted the waves of crushing trouble and many sorrows. Maybe his view of things is wrong, but he feels, no doubt, that he must fight a world that little knows or cares for him or his. While they say of him that he is hard and unfeeling, in reality he Is as tender as a child. You see Exteriors are deceptive. You cannot tell by looking at a man what may be bis thorn In the flesh. Therefore "Judge not that ye be not Judged."

WHERE DO YOU LIVE7 Asked that question, you would give the name of the town in which or near which you reside. But that is not where you live. That is merely the place where you are staying. You live in a world apart from your daily abode. For Instance: Some live in a world of leisure. They live a lounging sort of existence, lolling through the hours, taking the line of least resistance, choosing the things that make for luxury and ease. Caring only for themselves, dodging all hardness, they seek the pampered way. Others live In a world of action. They are restless, unquiet, agitated. Roving in spirit, ambitious of doing, they are Incessant, brisk, lively. They go the pace. Some live in a world of dissipation. These walk daily the primrose path of dalliance. They cry: "Let us chase the winged butterfly of pleasure! Watch the dryads dance! Listen to the patter of the fountain! Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die!" Some live in a world of thought The mind to them a kingdom is. Pitying alike those who dally and those who riot theirs is the world of Intellect in that world they live, move and have their being. They are the rare people who are good company for themselves. Others live in a world of feeling. Though easily moved, they are slow' of action, enjoying the mere exercise of their emotions. They are quite ready to laugh with those who laugh and mourn with those who mourn, but slow to dry the mourner's tear. Having keen sensibilities, each new sensation gives them delight Some live in a world of service. They ask nothing better than the chance to aid their fellows, and they give to that service the best themselves. Kindness and good will, charity and helpfulness distinguish their lives. Others live In a world of sacrifice. These are they who find their highest Joy, their deepest sense of living, in the elimination of self. Rare spirits are they who have learned that "the way of the cross leads home." And there are few other worlds than these. In which of them do you live? How floes it suit you? Have you ever discussed with yourlelf the possibility of moving out of tie world In which you live Into one .hat will suit you better?

Puzzles From the Greek. If two are a few. why not three; If three, why not four, and by a gradually advancing Increment of number why not 10,000. or any other number? Or, again, if the loss of a single hair does not make a man bald, why should the loss of two, of three, and so on, and Inferentially the loss of all? If, then, no addition or subtraction of a unit can transform a small number of wheat grains Into a heap or a full head of hair Into a bald head, how is It possible that either transition should ever be accomplished? Take a grain of millet out of a bushel and let it fall on the ground, and It makes no noise. Take every grain In succession of 10,000, let the same happen, and no sound is heard. Then collect all the grains back Into the bushel and pour it out and the result is a great noise, . How, ask9 Zeno. can 10,000 noiseless processes make on full of nois?.
