Vardaman, the fire spitting spec- tacular senator from Mississippi, who eats a negro every morning before breakfast and who while governor of his state paid more attention to abusing and insulting Roosevelt than. he did the duties of his office, will be jerked into private retirement if cer- tain sturdy residents of his state have their way about it. Vardaman, with his long hair and longer tongue, is so far from being a hero at home that they are accus- ing him of taking money which did not belong to him and he is being sued for an accounting of public mon- ies and at the same time is being branded not only dishonest but a coward, morally irresponsible, the publisher of an obscene ‘paper and temperamentally unfit to sit in the senate chamber. A petition circulated in Mississip- pi, presented to the United States senate asking for the removal of Vardaman has been largely signed and among other things says: “To the Senate of the United States: “We, the undersigned citizens and qualified voters of the State of Mis- sissippi, beg leave to hereby enter our earnest protest against the seating of Jas. K. Vardaman as a Senator from the State of Mississippi, for the following legal and moral grounds: “James K. Vardaman is ineligible to the office of United States Senator because the laws of our State declare that no man who has fafled to.ac- count for public money is eligible to that office. * * * “As Governor he handled numer-~ ous trust funds, and in no slugle in. stance has he completely u:cou for them, * » » “We allege the unworthiness of sald James K.

The campaign just ended was noted for the disorder in meet- ings held against Vardaman, in which anti-Vardaman speakers were sub- jected to much rudeness. We cite as witnesses Hon. John M.

Preferred to Be a Quack. A quack at a fair near Paris was driving a roaring trade ‘selling nos- trums, drawing teeth” and beguiling the crowd in the usual ways, says the British Medical Journal.. The letter of ‘the French law against unqualified practice i8 very strong, though owing to the indifference of the magistrates it 18 not strictly = carried out. This, however, was a particularly flagrant case, and the police-felt compelled to intervene.

They were profuse in their apologies, which the doctor cut short with an urgent en- treaty that they should say nothing about what they had seen, “for,” he said, “if the people know that I am a qualified doctor I shall have no more customers.” Shokels and Half Shekels. The early Biblical references to pleces of siiver do not in the ortg(nnl convey the idea of coins,- but of weights, shekels. The Mosalc. *obla- tion to God' was a half shekel. and the shekel is exnlnlned by .Josephus as equal to four Atheninn drachmae of the value of about 65% cents In Amerl- can money. The first Jewish coinage under authority was, it is belleved, struck by Simon. the Maccabee, about the year 140. B. C. It consisted of shekels and half shekels. This coin- age .had its ‘value signitied upon It. “Sheke! Israel,” in Samaritan cbarac Barker’s Drug Store. 0LD-TIME -REMEDY ‘s Uiniighted Cigars: General William B, Bate of.
