F PEIDEN'SENE SECRTRJ The new secretary to President Taft who succeeds Charles D. Norton is Charles D. Hilles, until recently as sistarit secretary of the treasury. The selection of Mr. Hilles meets with the hearty approval of the friends of thei president. Mr. Hilles is a native of Ohio, but was appointed -to his pres. ent.position from Dobb's Ferry, N. Y.. where he was conducting a boys' school. Mr. Hilles is about 40 yearp old. He will receive an annual sal. ary of $7,500, congress having grant, ed an increase of $1,500 for the in sition. Under the reorganization o" the executive force which has brought about Mr. Norton's short term at the White House, that force, with the ex. '. ception of the secretary, will be prao tically a permanent body. That women are keen observera and not always without a sense of humor has been demonstrated by b Virginia girl. When the announce ment was made that Charles D. lilleq had been selected for the position of secretary to the president the young -lady wrote to Mr. blilles a congratulatory letter in which she invited him tc read Leviticus, chapter 16, verses 20 to 23. Mr. Hilles borrowed a Bible and read the following: "And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat. "And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel and all their trans gressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness. "And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not in. habited, and lie shall let go the goat in the wilderness." at a ( Apparently the Virginia belle reads the political columns of the news. COn Pal)ers and knows how often it falls on the president's secretary to be "the Robi goat. do b HEIR TO THRONE OF MONACO Prince Louis, who is heir to the throne of the little principality of Monaco, famous throughout the world as the greatest gambling resort in ex. istence, may never wield the power now exercised by his father. Prinot Albert. Although the profits from the easino pay all the taxes of the prin. ipallity, thereby freeing every citi zen from financial obligations to the state, the people are not contented. They have made demands upon Pri'nce Albert for a constitution, and the prince, immediately after the ex -i pulsion of Manuel from Portugal, granted th.em one. They rejected It, however, demanding fuller political rights, and even made demonstra tions before the palace, in which the red flag of anarchy was unfurled. It has been charged that a cor Tyt' 0iElit'ion of things exists. By the terms of the last concession granted to the Casino, about $2,400, 000 was handed over annually by it to Prince Albert, who also drew about $800,000 a year from the local post office and stamp duties. Of this total $3,200,000, the prince was supposed to retain $800,000 as his civil list, while the remainder represented the revenues of thb state and were to provide for its maintenance. Now the people assert that the prince had allowed these sums and their true, destination to become confused and has amassed a fortune of $10,000,000, most of wvhich he has, with proper caution, invested in France. Whether the peop'le will go to the extreme of revolution in case their de mnands are not granted only the future can tell. B3ut the situation does not augur well for either Prince Albert or Prince Lzouis. FISHER SUCCEEDS BALLINGER Walter Lowery Fisher of Chicago, succeeds Richard A. Ballinger as sec -retary of the interior. Mr. Blalliger's resignation was presented in Janu ary, but at the request of the preri dent, was withheld until after con 4 gress adjourned. Mr. Fisher is a law ,, ,,yer, and has served in several pub lic capacities. Singularly, ho has - . been one of Gifford P1inchot's staunch est supporters in the matter of con / servation of natural resources, He was president of the Conservation i\~ League of the National Conservation - - Congress, which succeeded the league and of which Mr. Pinchot is president. He has always taken a deep and active interest in conservation. He was instrumental in the formation of the Municipal Voters' League of Chi cago and was its president in 1906. ~, ~ \Recently he was appointed a member of President Taft's commission to in ___.. vestigate the feasibility of regulation of stock and bond issues of railroads. He is a native of West Virginia and is 49 years old. Mr. Fisher said that no change in the personnel of the department would be made. Mr. Ballinger says he intends to prosecute those whom he considers have been his enemies. In defending himself against those who have -been waging war upon him Mr. Hallinger says that lhe spent $25,000 and is today a poor man. His health, too, has been impaired. SMAINE GOVERNOR AN EDITOR] Gov. Frederick WV. Plaisted of Maine is a newspaper editor before lhe is anything else. He has passed the greater part of his life in the at mnosp~here of a newspaper ofmie and will never get the stain of the print or's ink from his fingers. IHis ap. prenticeship was served undler one of the 01(1 school of Maine journalists, Glen. Hiarris M. Plaisted, his father, For nmany years they published the' New Ago together, andl the paper lives today, a monument to their of forts. Governor Plaistedi leads an ideal home life. Mrs. Plaisted was MIss Frances It. G1ulliver, and for several years asisted him in the New Age oflce. She still retains a lively in terest in that publication and, al though the wife of the governor of the /state, democratically lays* aside her social duties and plunges into the grind of "getting out" the paper 'phbenever she can conjure up an ouse for so doing. PECULIAR AFTER EFFECTS OF GRIP THIS YEAR. Leaves Kidneys in Weakened Con'dition Doctors In all parts of the country have been kept busy with the epidemic of grip which has visited so many homes. The symptoms of grip this year are very distressing and leave the sys tem In a run down condition, particu larly the kidneys which seem to suffer most, as every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neglected, as these dan ger signals often lead to more serious sickness, such as dreaded Bright's Dis ease. Local druggists report a large sale on Dr. Kilmer's Swan'p-Root which so many people say soon heals and strengthens the kidneys after an at tack of grip. Swamp-Root is a great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, and, being an herbal compound, has a gen tle healing effect on the kidneys, which is almost immediately noticed by those who' try it.
