Nobody knows how noble it is to know. But if you do not know, and nobody knows that you do not know, and you know that nobody knows that you don’t know, it is very pleasant to know that they don’t know that you don’t know that they don’t know that you don’t know. No man knows how much he really knows until he knows how much other people know that he doesn’t know. To ‘“know thyself” Is really all there is worth knowing, and since no man really knows himself and there is no other knowledge worth knowing and we do not know the only thing worth knowing we really know nothing. But to know that we know nothing is knowledge greater than the knowledge that some people think they have when they really know nothing and think they know something. Therefore it is greater to know noth- ing and know it than to think we know something when we know nothing. So if you know nothing and you think you do, and 1 know nothing and don’t think I do, I know more than you. It is therefore well that we know that we don’t know.—Exchange. Somewhat Mixed. Margaret Durham was the latest ar- rival at Miss Simmons’ select boarding school, and, being pretty and well dressed, she was popular. Would she be an usher at the month- 1y musicale? Margaret was horribly shy. She never could do it—oh, never! But the chosen five elected her for the sixth, so the evening found her a per- fect flutter of white frills and pink bows (this was the pink musicale) awalting to recelve the early comers. Each of the hardened five bore for- ward an imposing auditor, and Mar- garet found herself inquiring of a very ancient and elegant old gentleman in a volce scarcely audible, “Sir, shall 1 show you to a seat?” “What, what, what?” demanded the elderly party irascibly, holding . his hand to his ear. “Sir,” screamed the flustered novice, “shall I sew you to a sheet?’ Then five lace handkerchiefs were crammed into five tittering mouths, while Miss Margaret bolted from the 8cene of her discomfiture, and the five were left to do the honors.—Harper’s Weekly.

MAY SELECT KELLOGE Taft Said to Favor Minnesofan for Republican Chairman. DECISION TO BE MADE JULY 8 Official Etiquette Forbids Authorita: tive Announcement of Candidate’s Preference Prior to Meeting of the Sub-Committee. Oyster Bay, N. Y., June 30.—Inquiry into the purpose of the recent visit to Oyster Bay of Frank B. Kellogg and his extended conferences with Secre- tary Taft and President Roosevelt have developed the conjecture that he is the person whom Secretary Taft would like to see named as chairman of the Republican national campaign committee. Of course in view of the fact that a sub-committee of the na- tional committee is coming to Hot Bprings on July 8 to confer with Sec- retary Taft about the selection of a FRANK B. KELLOGG. chairman, it would scarcely be official etiguette to announce in advance the preference of the administration and the secretary in this matter; hence the impossibility of any authoritative announcement of Mr. Kellogg’s selec- tion at this stage. Mr. Kellogg, by the way, is a mem- ber of the sub-committee which will wait upon Secretary Taft; is from Minnesota, “the enemy’s country;” is in charge of the prosecution of the Standard Oil company and has al- ready achieved a national reputation as the administration “trust buster.” HILL DENIES Former Democratic Leader Says They Are Fictitious. Albany, N. Y., June 30.—Albert E. Hoyt, editor of the Argus, has re- ceived the following self-explanatory cablegram from former Governor Da- vid B. Hill, the reference being to an interview which was published widely as coming from Mr. Hill on the day he sailed for Europe. In this inter- view Mr. Hill was quoted as referring to Governor Johnson as “the poorhouse candidate,” criticising Mr. Bryan and saying that “there is ho Democratic party:” “Attention just called to alleged political interviews in American news- papers published after my departure. They are fictitious. I authorize you to deny same through the Associated Press and otherwise.” COMPLETE RETURNS IN. Final Results of North Dakota Pri: mary Election. Fargo, N. D., June 30.—Two Repub- lican factions in this state are taking stock since returns became so com- plete as to determine who is elected. There is no longer any doubt about any positions except men on railroad commission. Leaving that position in doubt, as both sides claim it, stalwarts elected men to seven positions and in- surgents -to five. Positions won by stalwarts are: Congressman, governor, lieutenant governor, auditor, commissioner of in- surance, commissioner of agriculture and secretary of state. Insurgents won senator, supreme court, attorney general, state treas- urer and superintendent of public in- struction. Congressman Gaines Defeated. Nashville, Tenn., June 30.—Incom- plete returns received from the state primary indicate that Governor Patter- son hag defeated former Senator Car- mack for the gubernatorial nomina- tiok by between 7,000 and 10,000 ma- jority. Unofficial returns show that John Wesley Gaines has been. defeat- ed by Joseph W. Byrnes for the Sixth district congressional nomination by & majority of 1,362. Desires to Increase Rates. Lincoln, Neb., June 30.—The Mis- sourl Pacific railway has applied to the state railway commission for au- thority to put into force a 3-cent pas- senger rate. The company also asks permission to install a 15 per cent ad- vance on freight rates. The Missourt Pacific asserts that the road is losing heavily under the 2-cent passenger schedule.
