The new State board of dispensary directors says that request books mast be used by county dispensers.

Some people prefer death to life, that is some one else's death; others prefer to give their own lives to save another's, if necessary. Many are the examples of the * ? r ?kjAk Hoilr (( lOVC U1 lilt? w mtu aic xtvviuvw uut?j We read today where this man makes the supreme sacrifice for a friend, and all the world applauds him as an unselfish lover of his fellow man; but tomorrow when the echo of applause for heroism has scarce died away hope for the bettering of mankind sinks to the very depths of despair, for this other man has wilfully > ' sacrificed, not his own life, but the life of his fellow man as a gratification of his ruling passion. At the time of the terrible calamity last week in France where over one thousand men perished in the mines, deeds of heroism were recounted in the press dispatches. One man, possibly poor in all but highborn love for suffering humanity, after rescuing fourteen men from death, ' returned for the fifteenth time, and to die. He had made the effort for the last time, and though it was unsuccessful, it was not in vain. This is the type of man who might be a citizen under any flag arffi be a man. The wails of mothers and children of at least fourteen families were calmed, but a life was the cost, that cost was paid willingiy. Hate?that word which implies prejudice, jealousy, and venom?opposes such J ?J- ?

Two sides to every question and thing is a general rule, and in the consideration of and for humanity it must be applied, for while we admire the lover of humanity, simultaneously we despise the y man who holds life as a mere plaything which may be forfeited when passion demands that a sacrifice be made, and then seeks the life of another. Susan B. Anthony Bead. Rochester, N. Y., March 12.?The long and eventful life of Susan B. Anthony closed at 12:40 o'clock tonight. The end came peacefully. Miss Anthony had been unconscious practically for 24 hours and her death had been momentarily ex: ' pected since Sunday night. Only her wonderful constitution kept her alive. Dr. M. S. Richer, her attending physician, said that Miss Anthony died of heart failure induced by double pneumonia. She had had serious valvular heart trouble for the last six or seven years. Her lungs were practically clear, and the pneumonia had yielded to treatment, but the weakness of the heart prevented her j recovery. He Wanted Stimulants. [Greenwood Index.] The following, received a few days ago by an Abbeville man, has been presented for a place in the archives of the office.

"Jim." Gossip About People of Prominence ? npViTOT? TCRT, SON W. ALDRICH of Rhode Island, who is a member of the senate committee on merce, acted a? cLief spokesman of the extreme con " servatives while the railway, rate bill - was under consideration by that committee and voted against reporting the bill to the full senate. It was on his motion that Senator Tillman of South Carolina, a Democrat, was given charge of the bill reported by the majority of the committee. Mr. Aldrich is very rich, and als daughter married John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Not long ago the senator and Governor Magoon of Panama occupied adjoining apartments at a Washington hotel and had the same valet One night Governor Magoon took some ladies to the theater. As one of the ladies stepped from the carriage she dropped her fan. Governor Magoon stooped to pick it up. There was a horrible tearing sound. The governor knew what had happened and excused himself. At the hotel he found Senator Aldrich mutely gazing at a pair of trousers that lapped around lim. "By George, Magoon," 'said the senator, "I am glad to see you. Do you know, that stupid valet has mixed up >ur dress trousers? You have on mine, jnd I cannot wear yours. They are too large for me. I trust you have come back to change, for I am late for my dinner engagement as it stands." "Indeed I have come back to change," said Magoon. "Gimme those trousers. They are mine. As for these I have on, you are quite welcome to them." Senator Aldrich shucked off Magoon's trousers, but .when he came to put on his own, which the governor had been wearing, there was a succession of loud exclamations. He stayed at the hotel that night but Magoon hustled back to the theater in his own trousers. When the Rev. Dr. William S. Rainsford resigned the rectorship of St George's church, New York, a short time ago on account of ill health, there was widespread regret but it was remarked that had his resignation been tendered in 1S86 instead of in 1906 there would have erchurches. As the _ _ _ , , , EEV. DR. W. fl. rector of a church ra^ord. ministering to 7,000 people he was a very busy and useful man, but his influence was far wider than the bounds of his parish, for he showed other ministers and congregations how to make the church of greater value to the community, Dr. Rainsford was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1850 and came to this country as a young clergyman in order to benefit his health. He became very rugged through devotion to exercise and sports and until recently looked the perfection of physical manhood. He holds that a church door should hardly ever be closed. "I was not always so keen for open churches,n he once confessed, "but a four-yc-ar-old girl settled my mind on that point I was walking with her, listening to her childish prattle, wnen we passed a tightly closed and locked church. " 'I s'pose God has a key to let himself In/ she remarked, looking thoughtfully at the barred door, 'but the people have to go to the sexton.* "I didn't have a church then,** continued the doctor, "but I made up my mind that when I did have one the people would not have to hunt up the sexton to get in." Major General John F. Weston takes Issue "with Thomas A. Edison on the question of the proper amount of sleep for the average Individual. Mr. Edison says five hours' sleep and five minutes for a meal are sufficient and that the great vice of Americans is overeat^ ^ ing.

WESTON. ? , ^ He served many years in that branch of the service and succeeded General Eagan as commissary general in 1899. But his war rec- < ord is not confined to the department < of subsistence. He was in the civil war, enlisting as a boy of sixteen, and he won a medal of honor for courageous exploits on the battlefield. Afterward he fought Indians under Gen- 1 eral Custer. His promotion to be a 1 major general about six months ago came as a surprise. One day when he called at the White House the presi- : dent said to him: "Look here, general; 1 your case has been up before the pre?* ? I ident of the United States. He and 1 have had a long consideration of it. I argued with the president that you were too old to be promoted to the | rank of major general.

As : a trustee of the Mutual Life Insurance | company he sought to end the Mc- ; Curdy regime apd^when fU?ces_pfu] in j this, lo jS-evenT conTrofor the Institu- j tion b? standard Oil interests.

His j wife Is one of the leaders of the Four j Hundred, and when the Grand Duke Boris of Russia visited Newport a few j years ago there was a great tempest in ; a teapot because Mrs. Fish made some ! uncomplimentary remarks about him. ' The Incident started a social war In j the fashionable summer city.. j When President Fish was a college ! boy he and some classmates, who were ; visiting at his home, spent a Saturday | evening at a little game of draw poker. ; The day following, the entire party be- j Ing assembled In the Fish family pew J at church,.the rector announced for his : text, "And Ephraim went out with a | full hand." One of his college friends . thereupon leaned over and whispered : In young Fish's ear, "Say, Stuvy, what | a fool Ephraim must have been!" , Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, who has j been prominent In the debate on the ; railroad rate bill, Is an intimate friend of President Roosevelt but the two men have not been in exact agreement on the subject of this bill. While not so ultra conservative on the subject of controlling the railroads as Senators Aldrich and Foraker, he has differed ^ fr?m Mr. Roosevelt discussion and the EciBo r ~nsnlar service reform has been a warm supporter of the plans of the administration. Senator Lodge is a great whist player. Not long ago a friend who entertains certain ertrelhely revolutionary ideas with reference to the game published a brochure embodying his views thereon, a copy of which work he forwarded to the senator. The author was a little taken back when, shortly afterward, meeting Mr. Lodge, he asked the senator what he thought of the work and the statesman replied: "Blank, I have read the book carefully. It seems to be a very good game, but not so good a one as whistT Senator Lodge Is known as "the scholar in politics." He is a voluminous author and an orator of no small power. After looking over the upper branch of congress from the reserved gallery Mark Twain was asked what he thought of the United States senate. "Oh. I always make it a point not to criticise my neighbors!" said Mr. Clemens. "How does that apply to the senate?" was asked. "Why, I live in Connecticut and Mr. Aldrich lives In Rhode Island." Frederick Landis, who Is winning a reputation as one of the orators of the . present congress, represents In the > house of representatives the Eleventh \ district of Indiana. His speech on Insurance revelations a few weeks since won national attention for Its brilliancy _ ( 01 saure aiiu cpi- , gram. He was born WjM In Ohio thirty-four years ago, and when f he was first elected to congress was on- gMj went by the name ^ gressman." He has f?L a brother, Charles B.

One day in 1902 he told his brother he was tired p?* tho riHrofo eom>tflrv hnfdnesa and thought he would go back home and run for congress too. He did it and made good. Mr. Landis is always ready with his '/oka. He is quite tbin and slender, and ?9 day when he was in a street car a stout lady entered. The car was well crowded with statesmen homeward (, bound. A sudden Jerk tossed the stout lady into the lap of the slender Indi- anian. " MI beg your pardon, sir," replied the f lartv in nnnfnslnn as she Btamrered to I her feet Mr. Landls arose to give her his seat remarking with characteristic alertness: "I don't blame yon, madam.
