DlilNO HJKNATOR iiOKK. Woiwlwful lieeonl of Him *i?ukk'?'s Atfftiiut Difficult!**, About thirty-five year* Ago ft; lit tle blind boy of eight u?ed to uU in air humble cottage in the tiny village of Walthall, MIhm., an<| 11* (??ii with the etpecial Intent iu>?? of the blind to the reading of 1*1* mother and wilder. A few month* previous an acci dent had tranwformed hliu from ft Hturdy, gray-eyed chap to a helptayit youngttter doomed to darkneKW. The boy was Thoiuau I'ryor (lore, i ii d now he 1m United Htate* tjoiyi- 1 lor from Oklahoma, and one of the foremoHi inembeiH ol that body. For Heveral win tore niter the I?hh Of hit* night, the little fellow uwod to make hlu way to and from hcIiooI, which wan -three duarteri of ji mile away from hi* home. He hud Bet hlu mind resolutely upon an education, hlb ambition to rise in the world had become a burning ob?eHtdou with him; he became a child of In trospection, and the gravity of bin IhoiiKhtM reflected in hla eight 1uh?< face earned for him the sobriquet of "the governor." At high 'school Senator Gore's cloKt'Hi companion wan a .boy named Charles Ji. lMttman, who used to read to him. One day they found an old volume of the Congressional Record. The boys repaired to the stable, where the blind student would stand for hours while hit* friend read to him the {speeches of the legislators at Washington. Senator ? Qore can recall the mo ment when the ambition to be a United States senator entered bis breast, never ,to leave it. On one occasion Gore, a struggl ing young lawyer, debated with Sen ator Money, whose tongue was a thing of terror to all Mississippi and who smiled contemptuously when told that his opponent in de bate was a poor blind school boy. The senator declared that had It not been for his antagonist's blind ness he would have held him per sonally reBpoiiBlble for his .word*. To this Gore promptly replied: "Lot him then blindfold himself and 1 will meet him." One day, when the fortunes of the young man were at their lowest it seemed as though lie had come to starvation. At this Juncture an old negro woman paid $2 which she owed him. That saved the .situa ?lior His fortunes began to mend. He came to Oklahoma with his mother in 1901, driving 45 miles. P. ret ITarte never wrote a stranger 'tale than his life in the new terri tory. His father became a notary public iu the tented city. The Mind son, attired in an alpaca coat, colored shirt and slouch hat, used to walk up and down through the mo? ley crowd waving his hnad and y.houtlng: "Here's where you get your papers out! Here's where you Ret your papers out!" At night he slept on the ground. Things moved fast in the new community. Soon Ooore was cam paigning for the senatorship, tho he was moneyless, or practically so. One day he was walking the street with his head bowed, won dering whther after all his terrible struggle he must ' be starved out of the political race. , / Somebody touched him on the arm. It was a friend, Thomas Dunn a banker. He felt something slip ped into his hand as Mr. Dunn whispered into his ear. "Pay tlji8 back when you can." It was $"60, and it made h imasenator,"fo"r it turned the corner. - -- New York Evening Sun. In Meiiioriaui.

"We do not mourn as those without hope: for we believe that God sent the death angel to take back with him one of our best ones, wfvome we sadly miss.

Henry" Watterson, editor of the l^uisvilio Courier journal, mid proclaims that "at laat Krliu vlsaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled /rout.*; "The narcotic bullet has been In vented. The bullet thatls to #end (lie soldier through slumber Into the great beyond; to put the burg lar to sleep until the patrol wagon arrives; to dope the Uoyal Bengal tiger and tnake hint a* harmless as ' a drowsy kitten; to end the charge of the rhlnoceroa in a snore. Hunt ing is to bo made humane. War will become a pleasure, and death upon the battlefield a positive de light, ^ Says Mr. Kennedy, th^Juvenltor, ! in an article for the Technical \\'<?rl<l Magazine; "The soldier receiving a alight fleah wound from the new bullet, fights no more thai day; he calmly stretches himself upon the Krouud and goes to aleep. The man receiv ing a HoriouH wound suffers no ug ony, as the narcotic from the bul let Ih absorbed in ' ?b system, and ho Is Insensible to pain before he reaches the hospital. The man whose wound Ib mortal Just sleeps away his laat hours, thus doing away with moat of the battlefield horror. The fleeing burglar is shot In the arm, i^uiis forward a short distance, stretches himself on the sidewalk and all the policeman has to do is summon an ambulance and haul him away. The big game hun ters, Humphrey says, will feel no fear of a counterstroke from a wounded tiger, lion or grizzly bear. Although the bullet may make but a slight wound, the game Is as good as bagged, once it is struck." Marse Henry says ibat the Hague Peace Conference should adjourn Bine die. That the author of the dime noyels will In the future put It this way; "A whiplike report broke the stillness of the canyon. A tiny puff of white smoke floated upward from the muzzle of Deadwood Dick's unerring rifle, pig jgyed peto j smiled broadly, yawned and fell ' over, fast asleep, his head pillowed upon a boulder." The police reports will contain items of this kind:. "Mr. Jones-Browne, clad only In his pajamas, chased the burglar down the hull, firing at him as he ran. He thought he had missed the man, but when ;the maid went to dust the spare room this morn ing the burglar was found In bed. had been hit six times, and it" was impossible to awake him. All the wounds were Mesh wounds, and unless the man dies from an oyer-, dose of morphine, he will recover." Verily, the world "do move." What next? Two Men Kept Dayton in Touch With World. Chicago, Mar. 2 0. ? Two employes of the American Telegraph arid Tele phone company, M. I). Stohl, wire chief at Dayton, and C. D, William son, wire chief at Phpneton, Ohio, by devotion to duty have kept Day ton In touch with the outside world. At noon today they had been on duty continuously for 36 "hours. Stohl reached the Dayton offico jusr before the flood broke Tues day morning. The water came with such suddenness that all batteries and power were put out of commis sion. Stohl rummaged arottnd and found a lineman's "test set.* With this he made his way to the roof of the building, "cut in" on the line to Phoneton and reported to Williamson, wliose batterlies.- were still in condition.

The bodies of Floyd Allen and his son, Claude Allen, electrocuted In the Virginia state prison for their part in the Hillaville courthouser tragedr. "were brought" here Satur day morning. Later they were transferred ,to a Mount Airy train and upon arrival at the little moun tain town in the early afternoon were conveyed ;to wagons. The journey across the Blue Ridge to the Allen house was begun about 3 o'clock- in the afternoon, the fun eral party expecting to make the 15 utiles over rough roads by night. Hundreds of people were at the railway station here to see the cof fins In which rested the bodies of the Virginia outlaws. At Mount Airy, ajarge crowd of mountain jpeo pie, among whom were many rela tives and friends of the clantfmen, Were gathered. No demonstration was offered, and ' there was no difficulty in making a passageway through the crowd for the six stal- I wart men of the mountains who served as pallbearers. The funeral .train which started across the moun tains was composed of three wagons and two buggies. Victor Allen, son of Floyd Allen, and J. C. Ruxton, of Winston-Salem, counsel of the Aliens, accompanied the bodies from Richmond. They escaped the eyes of the curiotis upon the arrival here and quietly enjoyed breakfast at a local hotel. A Commercial Sermon. V.losouri apples were listed on the menu cards of two or three ex clusive New York hotels the past printer at <0 cents each, which was about the cost of half a bushel of apples anywhere in the open market. The difference in cost represents, Y?ry largely, exelusiveness and pro fit, with a little additional expense < for packing, writes A. A. Coult. When the early prospects of a j largo apple crop In . nil MMMu Of America became assured in mid summer, a giower at U)banoou, Missouri, with an orchard of one hundred acres, real feed th'jlt some thing unusual would have to bf done to gf* more thau a living price for hie crop, He went to Now York to solicit orders. He had the idea that an cxcltudve of fering would command high price#, and suggested to some of the com mission men that they try a few in dividual hoxed apples for the trade, In addition to their order for soV' oral thousand barrel* of applet* fo? the general market. One New York commiSHiou man thereupou | signed a contract for 6,000 apples for which he was to pay 16 coutu I each at Lobauog*?\the number being limited to mttke them sufficiently exclusive. Each appl?> was perfectly houu<1 of high color and uniform shape none less than three and one-hnl Inches in dimeter, nor more than a quarter of an inch larger, Kach stem had at least two perfect leaven attached and each apple wu packed In an attractive pastbodrd box and the top sealed. Young ladles cut the selected apples from the trees with scissors, to protect the leaves on the stems. The apples were placed on a cloth covered table for inspection, and those that passed muster were dipped, leaves and all, in a solution which closed the pores of the skin and leaves, causing the latter to retain their natural .color, and con serving in the apple the original flavor. After the solution had ^dried, each apple was wrapped in soft tissue Vaper to hold it firmly in its box in which, is was imme diately placed. The leaves wese carefully arranged on top of the wrapping paper so that they would not be folded or crumbled, and the top was sealed: ? - The Technical World Magazine. ' fiinten. What's the matter with the girls these dayB? Can't they hold tjhe attention of any one? la it neces sary to keep repeating ..the word "listen" in an ordinary talk where the "talkee" Is all Attention? A Miss of perhaps 17 years asked for a certain brand of face powder In a dru^ store recently. This is a fair account of what she said: "Listen! I want a box of yuh face pow'der. Listen! Do you keep that there kind that comes with- ? with a morror? Yoti know the kind I mean. Listen! What > shade do you think 1 need? Is Raychet (Rachel) too dark? Listen ? " That was as much as I heard. But it was enough. If a girl has a toothache, or a wart on her fin ger, or a headache,,, it is "Listen, listen, listen," to the patient or in many cases impatient drug plerk. No Miss, it seems, considers her vocabulary up to date unless it is burdened with "listen." Oirls, take a tip. Put "listen" on the shelf.? ? New York Sun. , . a - ' .' ?? - ? - ? Will Remain Unknown.
