The president is dt*e at San Antonio, Tex., on March §1 to attend the rough riders' reunion. H^ expects to leave Washington on Mstreh \25. He will make short stops on \the way at Louis- ville, Dallas, Fort Worth and Austin. After the reunion he will ylsit Hous- ton. He will have a bear hunt and a jack rabbit hunt. Immediately after 1 -$£e reunion, as now planned, the president will go to Colorado, where he will disappear- into the Rockies and hunt grizzlies and mountain lions for four or nre weeks. His camp will be established in some remote canyon, and until he returns to civilisation lie will concern himself about only the most important affairs of state, though he will keep in close touch with the White House. The president's special train, will be sidetracked at the nearest railroad point, and Secretary Loeb will have his office there, with a direct wire to the White House. He will be accompanied by several clerks and stenographers and will dispose of all routine matters without bothering the president. Im- portant questions which must be de- cided by the president and which dan- nox be delayed will be taken to Mr. Roosevelt's camp by Secretary Loeb on horseback. There . will b£ no other means of commanieation. between the president's hunting headquarters and the temporary WMte House, and, the trail will be guarded to keep out out- siders. The president will return to Wash- ington about May 13. He -will stay here a month and then go to Oyster Bay for the summer. Cless.iiiii5.g- the _ White Horase. The old* style broom and the old^sys- tetn ot house cleaning have disap- peared fro JO, the historic^ White House, siiid ihere has been inaugurated a new system of cleaning by means of suction through pipes. \Every bit of 'dirt is drawn through tubes to the cellar of the White House, where it is deposited in receivers. Most of it is taken out of the receivers and IttirnecL, but the R finest part goes into another receiver and is churned up with water, passing out into the sewer systenf of the city. It is claimed that the machinery will da the work of three or four housemaids and a corresponding number of quickly wielded brooms, making everything clean in a few. minutes. It is put in operation as often as the White House roeins need cleaning. Very little items sometimes get 'into the legislative hopper. A debt amount- ing to a penny may be the subject of just as much legislative routine as a •debt for a million dollars. This was demonstrated a few days ago when Postmaster \General Wynne forwaided to the house .twelve pages of deficiency estimates of appropria- tions aggregating $3,855, A large^ por- tion of the estimates were small amounts due certain postmasters. Among these were the following: Postmaster at Chicago, 1 cent; at Traverse City* Mich., 2 cents; St. Louis, 2 cents; Beerfield Center, N. H., € cents. Others get as much as 29 cents and one 42 cents. • Tfee JTetfersoiit Bible. Doorkeeper Lyon of the house has dis- covered why there is such a demand for the Jefferson' Bible and why so many copies of it are stolen * from the mails. No other government pub- lication of recent years disappears so generally and fails to reach its destina- tion. The reason Mr* Lyon assigns for this, is the attractive, inscription printed on the folding room wrapper* *There are several Qualifying sentences sandwich- ed in in fine print, but the following stands out in. bold black type: \The teachings and morals of Jesus of Naza- reth free.\ in No Hurry Fo* Salary, That there is a mfcn oh-the govern- 'inent payroll who draws his salary but once every two years and has fol- lowed that rule ever since he has beeu on- the payroll will doubtless appeal to most people as utterly incredible, but it is a fact There is such a man, al- though it Is said that there is only one official entitled to that distinction. * ^representative E, -Stevens Henry of Connecticut, when .congress adjourns on March 4, wlli receive. $10;000 from the United States treasurer, tbe sum representing his salary for the £*ifty- . eighth congress, Stace his etectfcra to the Fifty-fourth congress Mr, Henry has never drawn his salary «w *n $10,000 lumps. He doesn't ased the money, and tfcea In actofrtfrg tbte rote he has achieved dJstioetJiHi *» * line that has never been sougnt or re- ceived by any other government offi- cial. An Election SoTttveuiis, Senator Frye, president pro tern, of the senate, who presided over the two bralicbes of. congress when the official count of the electoral vote was made allowing' the election of the Republican candidates for president and vice presi- dent, delivered to Secretary Loeb one of the credential boxes which contain- ed tlie official returns to be presented to the president. This will be retain- ed by the president as a souvenir' ,of his election. The box is inade of ma- hogany and is ornamented with inlaid work. Sent His Re^ardLs. Representative Bowers of Mississippi .received a letter the other day from one v of his agricultural constituents which read something like thisr \I have received the. seed what you sent and they is great I bet they will grow the biggest squashy and turnips in the county, thus making me feel that the district is safe' in your han&s. Give my regards to the house of representa- tives.\ CARL SCHOFIELJX How \Wood Is The colored wood industry began Iri Italy in the seventeenth century, and wood coloring works came to Sweden during the Thirty Years' war, but un- til quite recently the method was used on a very small scale. Now, by the method invented by the Austrian Joseph Phister in 1901, the wood is colored when fresh. The tree is cut while the sap is in ,action, and in the coloring process the dyj> is forc- ed under heavy pressure into the wood and replaces the sap. The manufactur- ers can color to a length^ of} thirteen feet. Birch, beech, alder, maple, elm and basswood are the best kinds I of wood for the purpose. Oak is not g good on account of the tannic aelclj and m spruce 'and pine the fcolor cannot be made uniform, < The wood looks best when nollslied. The prices are yet comparatively high on account of the waste, but ments may follow; It can M furniture, panels and*doors; improve- used in, also in outside work in order to avoid paint- ing. It is especially good for fitting ships and tram cars:—Report cf United, States Consul Bergh, Gothenburg, Swe- den. A H-ow T^xeoary* ©£ Sleep. An interesting and novel theory of sleep has recently been put forward by Dr. Claparede, a French scientist, who holds that sleep is a positive function or an instinct designed to arrest func- tioning. Dv. Claparede makes the as- sertion that we, sleep not because -we are intoxicated or, exhausted, but in or- der to-avoid such conditions. JNot only are there various kinds and degrees of sleep, but it 4oes not always fpllow ex- haustion. Furthermore, it is we'll known that sleep is not proportion^ to the degree of exhaustion, and it may be either total or partial. In measuring the profoundness of sleep various con- ditions are encountered which! are not susceptible of explanation on i:he toxic theory, but which' agree perfectly with the hypothesis, ' that it is a, positive nervous function. The definition of. sleep, according to. this new theory, is a reaction produced by Tario.us exci- tants* and is an inhibition which mani- fests itself subjectively by a 1E ek of in- terest- in exterior things. — [Harper's •Weekly. v Incomes of fh,e €rra»,d Djikes The Russian imperial family number^ at the present time somethingj like six- ty grand dukes and grand dpchesses. It is a fact, that they would, j one and 4|1, he wholly .dependent upon, -the reigning emperor, whose Wealth is practically boundless—Ms minimum in- come is estimated as being £1,500,000— were it not that a former czar] Paul I., set aside a certain number of estates, to which he gave the curious |name of \the imperial appanages.\ *Fhe income Of these vast stretches, of fertile land is devoted to the maintenance of all those members oC the imperial, family who are not in the direct line of suc- cession. At the present time tin's source of income produces £2,1 and the imperial appanages a year, _ stand in the proud position of being the largest landowner, the most important and prosperous farmer and the wealthiest wine producer in the Iiussianj empire!

Evidently it a number of years ago ^ wiie first voted no Jicense^—Ed. was written the town To the Voters of the Town o| Moira:— \We the undersigned want you to vote for license at the coming town meeting for the following reasons; latest: If we don't get license our drinkers will have to send out to Sodam or down f to Gor- morrah to get their liquor same as last year and if tlkeir money should fail or the roads become intpassa-ble and the liquor supply fail we are afraid our fuir quota of drunkards, which we have tried so hard to heep up for .many years past, will fall short—a tiling-that ought npfc' to be. Second: Our constables and justices would have hardly a-thing to do, there- by losing the fees which tho law allows them. The poor masters fees would be cut in two. We ask ft^ie voters to' stop and consider what would happen if the whole country voted no license-.' What vrould the sheriff do without any board- ers when the 1 Chinese are gone? Third: Our tov-ri Wants the license fees badly and t we are very anxious to pay said fees. Still we know that we sell Jnore liquor under no license—so you see patriotic. ITourth,: We pr< four propositions are'carried to feed yonr boys with soft drinks at first free- and ever after seir them mixed and h&rd< drinks.' We^will use our .best -sadeavorsto have fche fees, with a kmali tax added, used, to build two lockups $ or our town to eosfc -$1,000 each theisebjjr helping the la- borers, and keeping o'tir'money in town. We will see that the laws are strictly en- forced, that no drunkard goes' aboufe the streets yelling or weanns? 3T using 1 ob- scene language, and furthermore we will thafc'we ard >mise if all >usy. Know- sure to win see that our courts-are kept 1 ing before hand that J we; are we ask and expect every patriotic Christ- ian, whether Protestant or Oatholla, to help us, to go shoulder tb she ulder ! to poles and vote for license, 3 furthermore we ask the prayers of'all good women that we succeed.

Committee, That Stonecrjttsher Thinks WiiufWon'l Run it In the last issue 1 o£ thi3 paper an article headed \WiinCto Buy a Stone- crusher\ goes on to say| that the tax pay- ers of the town will have i, chance to vote on the proposition? to eaapower the town boar<fl to purchase a sfconecrusher and that a machine of this Mod is needed in. every town goes withlout sayings Now I would like to have the writer explain jusfc how the town could get any benefit from a stoneerusher. A machine of this kind will be of no 'practical fise without sufficient power .to runjife aid again it would be useless to apply\ crished stone on our sand roads without a. roller of sufficient weight to press them together so there would be no settling afterwards. This stoneerusher business is some- thing like the present electri lem we have in town. A sh some out of town pities erected pales, strung wire and attached satue to a dry land water wheel without necessary enquiry aboiit the water or the amount of power it would furnish. The consequence is we have no light. If the plant had peen gas and some of tlie Kot air that is floating about could IQB utilized we mighti light prob- )rt time ago making the quantity of have some light yet, but that kind of kas will not furnish power sufficient to r in a stone- crusher and roller.
