The state of Texas, according to the late census reports, is the only state that does not show a remov- ing from the farm to the city, and this is probably due to the fact that out siders are rushing in to take up farms, Speaking about “‘come backs’— Jeffries couldn’t, neither could Sullivan. How about Uncle Joe Cannon? People in Illinois say— “Just watch the smoke about Dan- ville when Uncle Joe gets in motion next fall.” The present summer promise to develope into what has been known in the past years as a whirlwind cam- paign year if present political gossip and demands for autos by the candidates continue. In fact, an auto is an essential in campaigning this year. THE REAL SULTAN COMING. Says the Metropolitan Maga- zine: The Sultan of Sulu is nota comic opera, but the erstwhile rul- er of the most unruly people in all the Philippine Islands. The fact that he was once a ruler over all the Moros and has been reduced to " the position of village mayor with a small farm and no slaves and still wants to come to America and visit Mr. Taft and Colonel Scott; is a good criterion of the way we govern the Philippines. CHINESE AND JAPANESE COMPETITION. China is -threatening to repeat what has been done in Japan in the way of manufacturing for export. Shanghai has eight large cotton mills in which are employed over 30,000 Chinese at spinning and weaving. In-one mill 1,000 persons are employed in day and night shiftsp the children earning about four cents a day, and the wages of adults aver- aging no higher than 20 cents a day. Modern machinery is being im- ported from foreign countries and Chinese operators are said to be quick to learn. The Chinese will soon make a good deal of their own cotton goods, as in fact, they do now. The United States has lost a good deal of its Chinese trade as a result of unfair Japenese competi: tion. England is suffering to a less; extent in the same way.

Atwood, Sadie Turner and Etta Al drich. They, with Frank Wagner as driver of their vehicle, were returning to their homesteads near Marcus, Meade county, after a picnic trip in the Bad Lands south of Phiip. When they were fording the Cheyenne river a wall of water from the cloudburst in the Black Hills swept down the stream, rolling their rig along the stones at the bottom of the stream. Wagner was saved by clinging: to the lines and being pulled out by the team after the rig had broken loose. The girls were drowned. The body of Miss Aldrich was first to be recovered and relatives near Spencer, Ia., were notified. The body of Miss Atwood also was recovered, but at last re- ports the remains of Miss Turner had not been found. NEW YORK LID TIGHT FIT Gaynor's Plan for Sunday Closing Ap- pears Successful. New York, July 26.—Not a single complaint by the police of the illegal .| sale of liquor in New York city on Sunday was recorded here during the twenty-four hours ended at midnight Sunday. This condition is unprece- dented and is the climax of three months of the operation of Mayor Gaynor’'s plan for enforcement of the excise law. The plan was made public in a let- ter from the mayor on March 21 and was put into operation a fortnight later. On the first Sunday under the Gaynor regulations 326 violations of the law were reported. The number decreased -each week afterward. At the end of the first month the number of complaints had dropped to sixty- two and a month later to twenty-five. Uncle Joe and Pinchot rhyme, but that is the only place in which they agree. Those neurotics who would choke the rooster who crows and the boy who whistles spend their idle mo- ments advising the neighbors to go back to the farm. New York has a queer race of gy- psies who are reported to put visitors to'sleep with sweet odors and then rob them. Anyone who has visited a gipsey camp will doubt the sweet odor story.

Avalon, Catalina Island, Cal, July 26.—“There was something the mat- ter with me. They sure did some- thing to me and it will all come out some:day.” These words from the lips of thei man who seemed the prototype of the dying gladiator at Reno are the first that Jim Jeffries has uttered in' con- nection with the fight since he was taken to Oakland, a beaten pulp of a man, and the first in which he has voiced any suspicion of others. The word “drugs” he did:not use, but the deliberate mind of the big giant, which has been slowly recuper- ating from the agony of:defeat, has come to that conclusion. He did.not offer it.as an excuse for his failure; he was simply thinking aloud, explain. ing: it to himself. It is a safe prediction that he will seek the opportunity, not to wipe out the ‘disgrace of defeat, but to prove that the Reno fight was not a square proposition. Photo by American Press Assoclation. LETTER CAUSE OF TRAGEDY Denver Woman Kills Husband and Ends Her Own Life. Denver, July 26.—Because Frank Ferres of this city permitted a woman other than his wife to write him an affectionate twenty-page love letter he is dead, slain by his wife, and Mrs. Ferres is dead by her own hand. The double tragedy occurred after Mrs. Ferres had spent four hours reading and rereading the letter, signed “Marie,” she found in her hus- band’s pocket. Mrs. Ferres waited until after her husband had gone to sleep and then, placing a revolver against his temple, blew out his brains. Neighbors found her sitting on the bed gazing into her husband’s bloody face and still grasping the revolver. She appeared to be in a daze, but when they aroused her ‘she calmly told them what had happened and then fled. In the rear yard Mrs. Ferres blew out her own brains. ‘The World’s most successful medi- cine for bowel complaints is Cham- berlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.

New York, July 26.—Private cable dispatches received here announce the sudden death in Vienna of Peter Gibson, a well known art connoisseur of this city. Mr. Gibson, who was fifty years old, was the owner of the Hotel Gibson in Cincinnati and other property there.

DEMOCRATS TO FIGHT MURPHY Follow Osborn in Convention to Con- trol Campaign. New York, July 26.—A strong show- ing of New York state Democrats in- tends to prevent if possible Charles F. Murphy of Tammany from controlling the Democratic state convention in September and naming the candidate for governor. In this movement are Democrats connected with the state committee as well as with the Demo- cratic State league. Friends of Thomas Mott Osborn, chairman of the Democratic State league, are in town consulting with important Democrats on steps to bring about Osborn’s nomination for gov- ernor. They came here at the request of Osborn, they said, and the counsel they received was to inform Osborn to get all the delegates he could from every part of the state, on the theory that the more candidates there are in the field and the more delegates pledged to these various candidates the more difficult it will be for Mur- phy to control the convention and name his qwp candidate for governor.
