P ELECTIONS IN 8 STATES| genator. The Republican ticket is headed by Judge Edward C. O’Bear. The legislature to- be ‘elected in Kentucky will choose a United States senator to succeed Thomas H. Payn- ter. The election of Congréssman: Ollie N. James to the senatorship is a foregone conclusion. Gorman For Governor. In' Maryland there is a straight contest between the Democrats and Republicans, with the last-named en- joying a slight advantage in - the race by reason of the dissension in the Democratic ranks. The Demo- cratic candidate for governor is Arthur P. Gorman, son of the late United States senator. Opposing him on the. Republican ticket is Philip Lee Goldsborough, a well known citizen of Baltimore. In Nebraska, though the officers to be chosen are of relatively small im- portanee, a spirited campaign has been carried on with an eye to future results. The legislature to : be chosen in Virginia will be the elec- tion of two United States senators, but the choice of these has already been determined in the primary. New Mexico will hold her first Stage election for congressmen, governor and other State officers, | judiciary and legislature, and county | officers. SUSPENDERS FOR HAREM SKIRTS Candidate for Mayor Aiso Would Prohibit Corset Under 30. Philadelphia, Oct. Stern, earnest advocate of liberal Sunday laws, reformer of woman’s dress, has taken out nomination pa- pers as the people’s candidate for mayor of Philadelphia. In his peti- tion Dr. Stern announces his plat- form: Compel all women to cut off their long hair; forbid them to wear rats. Pass a law compelling women to wear harem skirts held up Ly suspen- ders. Forbid a woman under 30 to wear corsets. The election officers predict they will not have to sit up all night counting votes for Dr. Stern. 21.—Dr. Moses Married Women's Names. In England and in the United- States a woman lvses her identity in mar- riage. ln Belgium and Spain the bus- band adds the name of his wife to his own. In the United States women sometimes retain the family name, as Mrs. HarriesBeecher) Stowe. In the Channel ands the fomdih never loses her, den name. In Spain the childres e the names’ of both r;reuu ¥y Monfgverd® In <ote” iy the foflowing: s my father's name, and I, wife of Samcho Panza, am called Teresa™Ranza, but by good right they ought to call me Teresa Casajo.” In Scotland both names are preserved, and the woman is always known by her maiden pame. In Wales it Is the custom to describe the woman by her maiden pame. The fa~t that & woman on becoming the wife of a man loses her ijdentity Is apparent in many portions of the Bible, when under the ancient custom man, ob taking a wife, declared that she be- came “tlesh of my flesh and blood of my blood,” thereby establishing the old time saying that man and wife are one.—Richmond Times-Dispatch. Tyranny of the Tip. There have always been those who have revolted against the tyranny of the tip. So long ago as October, 1795, we find that ubiquitous personage, “Constant Reader,” venting his griev- ances in the columns of the London Times. *“If a man who has a horse puts up at an inn,” he complains, “he- sides the usual bill he must at least give 1s. to the waiter, 6d. to the cham- bermaid, 6d. to the hostler and 6d. to the jackboot, making together 2s. 6d At breakfast you must give at least td. between thé waiter and hostler. If the traveler only puts up to have a refreshment, besides paying for his horses’ standing he must give 3d. to the hostler; at dinner 6d. to the waiter and 8d. to the hostler; at tea 6d. between them; so that he gives away in the day 2s. 6d., which, added to the 2s. 6d. for the night, makes 5s. per day on an average to the servants.”” They did the thing pretty thoroughly in those days. - A Millionaire. The term “millionaire” is of inter- national use, but it does not mean the same thing in the mouths of different nations. To every one it means the possession of a million, but not neces- sarily a million dollars. In Great Britain a millionaire bhas a million pounds, or nearly $5,000,000, while in France they count francs, so that there a millionaire is a compara- tively poor individual with but $200, 000 to bless himself with. Million aires are quite common in Prussia, but a million marks dJon’t mean much these days, amounting to a trifle of $250,000 in our money. For mil- lonaires of real class it Is necessary to go back to old Babylon. The Baby- lonian millionaire bad 1,000,000 talents and would not be regarded as a poor man even by a Wall street office boy. A talent was about $2,000, and a mil- lion of them would be $2,000,000,000. 12 . Dinner Among the Romans. The Romans in the time of Cicero and’ Augustus took an early breakfast. from 3 to 4 in the morning; a luncheon at 12 or 1, and at aboat 3 o’clock the coena, or principal meal of the day, corresponding with our dinner. Con- curgehtly we read of some not dining untii sunset. Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally.”— " thorne, Erench: Whiskers. <ia #the full and sumptuous beard: which ‘was once the pride nl}d Joy_of every ‘well olled Parisian s fast disappear- ing. . Not so long ago the streets of aris teemed with rotund figures car- rying black portfolios under their arms and screened by a curtain of curly hair which whisked gayly in the breeze. Red bronze was' the favorite color, either natural or bottled, as the case mjght be. In moments of agita- tion or perplexity the beard offered great possibilities to its harassed oywn- er, who seemed to derive inspiration from its constant manipulatron. I remember once, when I was living with a French family on the other side, of the Seine, I was attacked by influ- enza. Madame insisted tpon my call-’ ing in her doctor. He was a very smail.. man with a very large beard. After listening to -tbe story of my life he proceeded to examine my lungs. I was about a foot. taller than he was, 80 he was obliged to stand on tiptoe to perform the rite. » As ‘he glued - his ear to my chest his beard seemed tc annoy him," for he suddenly gathered shoulder. The action so._astonished thereby ‘depriving him of one of my The Last Hope. When Lemuel Gregg died a cousin from a distant town appeared, saying he had come to settle the estate and take the residue as Lemuel’s only kinsman. He had a jaunty air at firse, but at the end of a week he had ac- quired a watchful and anxious expres- sion. When he stepped into the office of Lawyer Mears on Saturday after- noon he seemed to be extremely nerv- |ous. “Well, how are you coming out?” asked the lawyer. “I suppose it's all clesr sailing, isn’t 1t?” “Clear sailing!” echoed the executor. “Do you. suppose I’d be here with a fee to pay if 'twas clear safling? I'm desperate, I tell you! “There isn’t a thing left of Cousin Lem’s estate except n two dollar bil! and three pewter plates. .1 want to know if there’s any way that I can oblige the town to accept those plates for the tax bill it sprung up ou me after I thought I'd got everything paid? If there is T'll give you a dollar and use the other half o’ that two dollar bill to get back where I came from this very night.”—Youth’s Companion. Spruce Trees Nursed by Pines. A singular fact with regard to the re- lations of different species of trees has been brought out by the reforestation of the peninsula of Jutland, Denmark. It was observed that when planted alone spruce trees did not prosper, but that if a spruce was planted near a mountain pine it grew up vigorously. Further experiment has shown that if the pines are placed near the spruces at the beginning and after being al- lowed to grow together with them for a few years are cut down the benefit to the spruce continues. The phenom- enon Is not understood, says Profes- sor J. W.Harshberger, but it is sup- posed thatthe roots of the mountain pine are inhabited by some mycorhizn which produces the nitrogen needed by the trees ‘gnd that this arganism is transferred to the roots of the sur- rounding spruce. Once the infection has taken place the presence of the pine is no longer necessary. Old Time London Sundays. Now and then one hears Londoners complaining that their Sunday is too dull. They want more amusements, attractions, life. But had they lived In the seventeenth century they would have found a vast difference. At that period a Sunday in London was a day of trials. One had only to fetch or carry to break the Sabbath. Men were fined for carrying such things as a haunch of venison and a pair of sho2s, while another individual had to pay up for swearing on a Sunday. A duke and a knight were fined again and again for riding in their carrlages on the first day of the week, and one un- fortunate pedestrian had to pay a. sov- ereign because he was caught In the act of strolling from Bristol to Bath on a Sunday.—Pearson’s Weekly. Waterfalls In Japan. Waterfalls in Japan are almost countless. There is one at every turn, and where there was not one in the beginning the Japs have made one, for it is their passion. Every little garden has a fall ¢r two or it would not be considered a garden. There are many very beautiful ones in various parts of the country, and they are all of them shrines visited by thousands of pllgrims every year. The Best You Have. Always give of the best that is in you, Feel responsibility toward your- self and your work. Never be con- tent with a compromise ‘with work. Give an employer the best that you have in you to give—Belvedere Braoks. Mean Reply. “Talk about man!” exclaimed the suffragist. “What has man ever done for woman?” “He's furnished her with a model ehe’s trying durned hard to imitate,” came a voice from the rear of the hall. Boston Transcript. Remorse. A chemist had made a mistake in his weights and poisoned a customer. ‘When the fatal tidings were brought to him he exclaimed, “Wretch that 1 am—and my best customer too!” 1t is the rule of rules and the gen- eral law of all laws that every person should observe those of the place Early Morning Talks. He is always ‘doing something that causes a lot- of talk.” “Why, I never heard any of it.” “He {s.the only ome who hears it.

Fullerton gives an interesting ac- count of ‘what {s considered sportsman- ship and what cheating in the national game, . He writes: ¢ “The _best - batters. are -those “who *crowd. the plate’—that is,”who stand #s near the plate as the rules or the umpire ‘will ‘permit and lean over the corner of the rubber to make it diff- cult for the pitcher to pitch across that corner without taking a chance of hit- ting the batter. “The-players recognize the fact that the lines of the “batter’s position are obliterated within a few minutes after a game starts and ‘that the umpires practically are heipless to enforce the rules .or ‘to tell whilé watching the course of a pitched ball whether or not the batter-steps over the line. So it has become. part of the unwritten law of the game that the pitcher may ‘bean’ (that is, pitch at the ‘bean’ or head) - any batter who ‘crowds’.in order to drive bim back from the plate. It is ethical under the players’ code to hit oand to injure any player who persists in encroaching -upon the forbidden ground, _and - the batters themselves recognize this-danger and accept it as part of the game.” - 2 THRIVED ON MISFORTUNE. A German Peddler Who Insulted the Kaiser and Got Rich. A German hawker, Hans Bauer- meister, retired from business, having amassed a little fortune. According to u Paris contemporary, misfortune was the foundation of his success. The hawker’s specialty was the sale of por- traits of the imperial family. His mode of haranguing his audience was something like this: “Buy a por- trait of William I., whose motto was, ‘I.have no time to- be wearied." *“Who'll buy this Frederick IL. whose prayer was, “Peach me to suffer with- out complaining? " “Do not fail to complete your collection. and buy this portrait of our great emperor, William II., whose favorite phrase is, ‘Augusta. you pack your trunks.’ ™ This last always brought down the audience, and in time the police, tn another sense. Bauermeister was sen- tenced to sixty days for lese majesty. He did his time and on release re- started his business. He sold his por- traits with the old formula until he came to that-of the kaiser, and then he said, “I have learned to my cost that it is not lawful to repeat what he says so often.” The people were Jjust as well pleased, and the portraits sold splendidly. Verdi Was Right. When Verdi was putting the last touches to “II Trovatore” he was vis- fited in his study by a privileged friend. who was one of the ablest living mu- siclans and critics. He was permitted to examine the score and run over the “Anvil Chorus” on the pianoforte. “What do you think of that?’ asked Verdi. “Trash!” responded the con- uolsseur. ~Verdl rubbed his hauds-and chuckled. “Now look at this, he said. “Rubbish!” said the other, rolling a cigarette. The composer rose and em- braced him with a burst of joy. *“What do you mean?” asked the critic. “My dear friend,” cried Verdi, “I have been making a popular opera. In it I re- solved to please everybody except the purists, the great judges, the clas- sicists like you. Had T pleased you I should have pleased no ope else. What you say assures me of success. In three months ‘Il Trovatore’ will be sung and roared and whistled and barrel organed all over Italy.” And so it proved. One Helped the Other. A lady was continually accusing her servant of extravagance without any real cause. The servant always bore this accusation patiently. One day the servant informed her mistress that the coal had all been con- sumed. This was followed by the usual remarks on the part of the mis- tress, who finished up by saying: “You evidently eat them.” The next day the candles were all gone. “Candles gone!” sald the mistress. “Why, T bought "half a pound only a fortnixht ago.” ““Oh, well,” rejoined the servant, who could stand this sort of thing no longer, “I can tell you where the candles have gone. I ate them to grease my throat so that T could swallow the coal more convenlently!”—Pearson’s Weekly. The Royal Fish. Sturgeon are abundant in Russia, ‘where the fisheries are of great value. The flesh is eaten when fresh, but is chiefly smoked or salted. More than 10,000 fish are sometimes caught at a single fishing station. The eggs are removed in quantity from the ovaries and separately prepared as caviar. The annual value of the Russian stur- geon fisheries, including the produc- tion of isinglass, or fish gelatin, is es- timated at $5,000,000. Sure Thing.
