To love tradition is to limit truth. A good many resolutions die of heart failure. A big shingle often hides a mighty small business. No man possesses more religion than he practices. When men say “our faults” they usually mean yours. Smiles help, but it often takes sweat and tears to keep life sunshiny. Some are more anxious to forget their sins than to have them forgiven. Many a man is shouting his con- victions to drown the voice of con- science. Little learning is dangerous if you are planning to get to heaven by degrees. The saddest people in this world are those who seem to have no sor- rows to face. The long look within ourselves will cure us a lot of impatience with other folks. When you pray for the removal of 2 mountain you had better say amen with a steam shovel. The last person to enter heaven will be the one whose religion has all been in the first person singular. | We often talk a good deal about the salvation of soulsin order to escape service for the salvation of society. Do not think that you have put an extra rim on your crown when you have paid 20 cents for a 50-cent supper at the church. ONLY FOUR DEAD SO FAR Few Fatalities Follow Thousands of Prostrations. Philadelphia, July 20.—Of the thou- sands of persons overcome by the heat while watching the Elks parade about 100 spent the night in hospitals. The number of deaths due more or less dlrectly to the heat and humidity numbered four and there are about a dozen cases considered serlous by the hospital physiclans. The dead were residents of this city and those still in a serlous condition are also Phila- delphians. The fact that the death Mst was small is principally due to the prompt relfef given by the authorities, who weré prepared for a large num- ber of heat cases. The number of prostrations, how- over, went beyond their expectations and in consequence all hospitals and temporary hospital quarters were swamped. What is it? In point of fact, it is the freedom from poisonous and spurious in- gredients,the excellence in flavor, that gives to prPfices - their wide q‘opularity and increas- ing sale. The retail grocers are learning that quality rather than price is necessary to retain the confidence of customers and make | TAWNEY IN LIMELIGHT Minnesotan Mentioned for Second Place on Republican Ticket. EXPECT FIGHT IN NORTHWEST Possibility of Governor Johnson's 8e- lection for President or Vice Pres- Ident by Democratic Conventlon Starts Talk About Congressman. Washlngton, July 2,—Congressman James A. Tawney of Winona, Mian, 1s being talked of considerably fa con- nectlon with the vice presidential nomination on the Republican ticket at the headquarters of the League of Republican State Clubs. Congress- man Tawney is enjoying quite a mid. summer vice presidential boom. The talk is caused by the possibility of tho Democrats selecting Governor Johnson for either the first or second place- on the Democratic ticket. In that event the natlonal contest will center in the Northwest. The Democrats are after Minne- sota’s electoral vote,” sald ex-Gov- ernor Merriam of Minnesota. “I have heen asked a great deal about Gov- ernor Johnson and, as matters stand today, the ticket looks llke Bryan and Johnson and a concentration of Demo- oratic forces to carry the Western states.” Captain Erick G. Lind, a retired officer of the United States navy and a prominent Swedish-American, is vis- iting Washington. “I have just made a visit to rela- tives and friends in Minnesota,” he remarked, “and it dild me good to hear of the popularity of Governor Johngon. No Swede who has tasted the blessings of America can be satis- fled to live anywhere else. Annually there arc thousands of Swedes who return to the old country for a visit, but they are not content to remain there.” JEROME’S LIBEL SUIT. Hearst's Attorney Asks to See List of Campaign Contributors. New York, July 2 .—An Interesting situation developed in the continued examinatlon of District Attorney Je- rome before Supreme Court Justice Dayton when Clarence J. Shearn, counsel for W. R. Hearst, tried to ob- taln the list of contributors to the campaign fund raised for Mr. Jerome prior to his last election as district attorney. After a long argument it was decided by the court that if Mr. Jerome had the list under his control he was to produce it in court for the court. “If it is not under Mr. Jerome'’s control then 1 can do nothing,” sald the justice. The list was in the hands of How- ard 8. Gans, a former assistant dis- trict attorney. Mr. Jerome sald he never knew anything of the list and never saw it. Mr. Gans is now In Europe, having salled a week ago. He will not return for a month, Mr. Shearn saild he was willing to glve Mr. Jerome a reasonable time in whkich to produce the list. Mr. Jerome's examination is being conducted in connection with his ltbel suit for $250,000_against Mr. Hearst’s newspapers. MAN BOILED TO DEATH. Brewery Worker Falls Into Vat of Su- perheated Whisky.

Lieutenant Molitor, who is stationed at Metz, swore he suspected Hau im- mediately after he heard of the mur- der of his mother. His explanation of the dispntch sent to Frau Molitor by Hau from Parls was that his mother, as Hau knew, was easily agitated and excited over bad news. The accused therefore sent the message saying her daughter Olga was dangerously ill in the hope that its receipt would cause & stroke.of apoplexy. Describing his talks with the late Mra, Hau, his sister, after he returned from London, the lieutenant said his sister's first theory was that some enemy of Hau had killed her mother In order to throw suspicion on her husband, It fell to the licutenant t. explain to his sister all the circum- stances of the case pointing to the guilt of her husband and this recital, he said, finally convinced her that Karl was the murderer. She broke down completely and groveled on the floor in her struggle against conviction, but finally yielded to the evidence. At her request the lieutenant cabled to Washington ask- ing it his sister's patrimony of .$15,000 was still in the Unlon Trust company. The answer he received was that Hau had drawn all this money. Mrs. Hau saild her husband had repeatedly as- sured her that this money was still intact in the trust company. After his sister became convinced that her husband was guilty she sent a cable- gram to her husband’s counsel in Lon- don saying she was no longer able to maintain his innocence. ATTEMPTED LYNCHING FAILS Mild Verdict in Murder Case Arouses Louislana People. New Orleans, July 2)—With the peaceable dispersal of a posse of 300 men who had formed at Gretna, La., to lynch the Italians convicted of the Lamana murder the acute crisis in the kidnapping Incident is believed to have been safely passed. This posse was the last of several small mobs which formed at widely separated points and threatened hang- ing of the Italians if favorable oppor- tunity presented. Governor Blanch- ard’s prompt action ‘in ordering out two companies of state militia within | two hours after the verdict is believed to have saved the Italians’ lives. The soldiers arrived at the Hahuville jail, where the prisoners were confined, shortly before midnight, in time to forestall plans which were on foot to take posses from New Orleans. Nearly 100 = “iers guard the lonely and exposed 1° ville jail and it may be necessaiy to keep them on duty there until the Italians are removed to a safer place. The prisoners must first be sentenced. Indignation over the jury’s mild ver- dict—life imprisonment—has grown considerably and many of the reports of the court -proceedings, while they shew a falr trial, comment to the ef- fect that several of the jurymen are large employers of Italian laborers, which augments the resentment. RAILROAD MEN RELEASED Federal Court Interferes . in North Carolina Rate Fight, Ashéville, N. C., July 2).—The fight In the rallroad cases again has been shifted to Asheville when Judge Pritchard signed writs of habeas cor- pus upon Bheriff Hunter directing that he produce before him the persons of District Passenger Agent Wood and Ticket Agent Wilson of the Southern Rallway, charged with disregarding the new passenger rate law. The hearing on the writ was scheduled for 2:80 o'clock. Messrs. Wood and Wil son, under sentence of thirty days on the chain gang, were required to give nominat-bonds. . One interesting development was the serving of subpoenas on Police Justice Reynolds, who passed sen- tence upon Wood and Wilton, together with several others, and they will be asked before the federal court to toll what they know about the charge that the indiotments against the ticket agents here were planned and issued from the office of a local newspaper.

Houses were wrecked, street railway tracks torn out and cellars flooded. The family of Danlel Riordan, one mile east of the city, had a miraculous es- cape from death. The residence, two storles In helght, was torn from the foundation and demolished. Riordan, his wife and three children had taken refuge in the basement., They were buried under debris, but the wind lifted the house bodily from the foun- dation and none of the heavy timbers fell on them. Scores of houses were washed from thelr foundations in the city by the raln, which amounted to a cloudburst. In Brookdale, a suburb, a score of families were driven from their homes by water, which reached the windows on the first floor. A dozen residences ‘were struck by lightning, but no fa- talities are reported. The loss to crops will be heavy. DEATH THE PUNISHMENT. Herman Billik Convicted of Murder at Chicago.

Rebels Attack Military Barracks but " Are Repulsed. Guayaquil, Eecuador, July £ .—The four military barracks in this city were. attacked simultaneously by armed revolutionaries, who call them- selves ludependents. The independ- ents were finally defeated, several of their number being killed or wounded. The local residence of President Al faro alsq was attacked, The revolu- tlonaries purposed to kill tliq presi- dent, but he was uninjured.

The column had been winding all morning through open country. Now it ‘was approaching close woodland and high grass. The captain of the com- pany, acting as advance guard, knew that trouble was probably lying ahead, He called to him his pet sergeant—the man he had been saving through all the day for the time when a ‘“best” man was needed. - “Sergeant O’Hare,” he said, “I want you to pick out from the company any six men you choose and-go ahead as a point. You can have anybody you want—only choose the best you know. I think we will be fired on from those low hills.” Sergeant O’Hare’s eyes searched the company. “Sullivan!” he called. “McCarthy! O'Donnell! Moriarity! MecGinnis!” He hesitated. His glance wandered uneasily up and down the line. Big, honest Swedes, burly Teutons, lanky Yankees, there were in plenty. But where—oh, yes, there on the left of the line—that bright eyed, pug nosed, red headeq little beggar, nodding and im- ploring attention with his twisted up face. The sergeant’s brow cleared. “Lynch!” he called, with a sigh of relief. “This Is thim, sorr,” he added, turning to the captain.—Outing. ——— dress of type. enti) ree jyrom Alcohol Since May, ly free from alcohol.

Holman Hunt began his. art labors when at the age of four he cut off a Jock of his own bair to make a paint brush, It Is rather a serious matter for the young artist rightly to choose some plcturesque and as far as possl- ble inadequate means of beginning his career, We. all know the story of Ben- Jamin West and the cat's tail. Aliston, belng a colorist, is supposed to have squeezed the lusclous hues from flow- ers to make his paints, As there are probably many young artists contém- plating a career, why not suggest a few new ways of beginning? Make a brush from popper’s shaving brush, from mummer's hairbrush, from uncle’s chin whiskers, from auntle’s false front. No doubt the reason there are few great artists nowadays Is that it Is so hard to avoid ready made paint brushes. They are thrust upon children in the public schools. How can we hope for a Benjamin West with brushes a drug on the market?—Philip L. Hale in Bos- ton Herald. A Dog Detective, In 1829 a peasant was found .mur- dered in a wood in the department of the Loire, France, with his dog sitting near the body. No clew could at first be gained as to the perpetrators of the erime, and the victim's widow contin- ued to live in the same cottage, ac- companied always by the faithful dog. In February, 1837, two men, appar- ently travelers, stopped at the house, requesting shelter from the storm, ‘which was then granted, but no soon- er had the dog seen them than he flew at them with great fury and would not be pacified. As they ‘were quitting the house one of them sald to the other, “That rascally dog has not forgotten us” This ralsed the suspicion of the widow, who over- heard .it, and she applied to the gen- darmes In the neighborhood, who fol- lowed and arrested the men.
