She is a vry beautiful and attractive Speaker-Elect Delivers an Address of "Hope and Courage" to Ycurg Men. Springfield, Mass., Feb. 5. De claring that he is an optimist, and that he believes . the world is growing better, Representative Champ Clark of Missouri, Speaker-elect of the next House of Representatives at Washington, delivered a message of 'hope and courage" in an addess today be fore the Young Men's Christiau Association here. If the world were not growing better Mr. Clark said, then the school system, about which America boasts and which costs so much, was an ignominious failure and all religion was a failure, and he did not believe either to be true. Why so many good people believe the world is growing worse was explained by Mr. Clark as a matter of evolution of communi cation ; that nowadays any place ou earthls in reach of the .tele phone a&d telegrar h and a man may do a thousand good things aud t67f r get his name in the uewspapers, but the first time he does a bad thing "in it goes." Mr. Clark said . that when he went to Missouri thirty-five years ago, the average number of homi cides in Pike ccunty was between four and five a year, and now they average lesB than one. That, he believed, was measureably true of every other county in the coun try. Up to ten or fifteen years ago, a prize fight could be pulled off in auv State with absolute im munity . Now thnre is not a single State hi which it is not a penitentiary offence. Up to comparatively recent years, a duel could be fought in any State witnout any lear or serious ccn sequences. Now there is no State in which it is riot a felonv. In conclusion Mr. Clark said: "Thanks be to Almighty God, i wars are uecoming rare and rar er. Une thing which the flying machine will accomplish will be to put an end forever and forever to all wars. Lotteries haye been stopped. Institutions for pre servation of mcrals, relief of human sufferings, for perpetual- lty of our institutions are spring ing up on every hand. The idea of reformation of criminals rath er than their punishment is tak ing a deep hold on the minds of men. lhero is mure money today devoted to charity per oamta a. ft. ban ever before. Controversial religion has passed and practical religion is at hand. The masses of the people are wokine un to he fact that politics should be purified, demanding primary re- orms." MISSOURI CAPITOL BURNS. SEVEN YEARS OF SER1 Ml lady. We extend to them our heartiest congratulations for a long and happy life. Very much has been thought and said about a little item in the paper from Kock signed Strawber ry. It has been generally known by the readers of this paper that the items were not true, but when a business man passes through ths community and hears some talk ing of building a cotton mill and others talk of building a railroad and the cotton mill man names his buyer, or course he does not know but what all of, this is true. The man who hearV this thinks it something great an&JiaB it put in print. Those who start a joke of this kind should laugh it off nxe sensmie people. dandy. All Relieved by Lydia E. Pink- ham s Vegetable Compound. Sikeston, Mo. "For seven years I suffered everything. I was in bed lor lour or hve days at a time every month, and so weak I could hardly walk. I cramped and had backache and head ache, and was so nervous and weak that I dreaded to see anyone or have anyone move in the room. The doctors gave me medicine to ease me at thosn times, and said that I ought to have an operation. I would not listen to that, and when a friend of my husband told him about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound and what it had done for his wife, I was willing to take it. Now I look the picture of -health and feel like it, too. I can do my own house work, hoe my garden, and milk a cow. I can entertain company and enjoy them.

Lightning Strikes Cupola and Starts a Blaze With Wtiilb Firemen Cannot Cops. Jefferson Git, Feb. 5. The Missouri Capitol building was. de stroyed by fire tonight. Many of the records of the Govenor'a and other State officers are lost. Lightning, which struck the cu pola of the dome shortly after 7 o'clock, spread. the flames to the roof of the House of Representa tives on the north side of the structure and in less than half an hour it was apparent that the building was doomed Because of the inadequacy of the water pressure the fire could not be reached and no aid could be given for some time by the local fire company. Govenor Hardley directed the fight against the flame, which be cause of the building rapidly gained great headway. The peni tentiary fire depaitment was call' ed and the convicts worked hero ically, scaling walls and taking dangerous chance3 for their lives. 'The local military company was called out and formed a cordon around the building, driving spec tators from dangerous positions and removing records from the different State departments. The fire soon spread to the roof of the Senate chamber, where the efforts of the fireman proved unavailing to check it. The records of the House of Representatives were destroyed. iipU.Ia 1 1 f .I rt . Yvuiie biiueo ui sne senace were saved.

Deposits First Month Greater Than Most Successful Year of the British System. Washington, Feb. 5. "It the necessary appropriations were available-, I would Je&tablish pos tal savings banks tomorrow u five hundred additional cities aud towns of the Ob ited States' This statsment was made to night by Postmaster General Hitchoock in view of reports thus far received concerning the first month's operation of the postal savings system. The reports are most gratifying to Mr. Hitchcock and to the otEer officers of the postal savings service. They are regarded as demonstraring that the new system already has passed the experimental stage. The certificate of deposit plan, which is an innovation in the transaction of postal savings business, is shown to be admira bly adapted to its purpose . It is found to be readily understood by depositors and easily handled by postmasters. The total deposits in the forty eight existing postal banks for the month of January will amount to approximately $60 000."tFis is an average of about $1,200. Assuming that this average will be maintained throughout the year, the aggregate of annual de posits will be close to three-quarters of a million dollars. This, too, will be the situation in the small offices, where the banks now are in operation . It is assumed by the officers of the system that the deposits will be correspond ingly greater when the service is extended to first class offices. The average amount of deposits being received at each office as in dicated by the January returns, is larger than the corresponding average for the British system of postal savings depositories in 1908, the mDet succewful year in the history of that system. A large majority of the deposi tors int-January were foreign born Americans, many of whom have been in the habit of sending their savings to their native countries for deposit. An important re sult cf the system, therefore, is to diminish the outflow from the United States of such funds. In view of trie successful opera tion of the new system during its first month, Postmaster General Hitchcock has recommended to the Congress the appropriation of $1,000,000 to be immediately available for the extension of the postal savings system to a- con siderable dumber of postoffices, the patrons of which are clamor ing for the new banks.' Merchants Elect Officers. The first regular meeting for this year of the Salisbury Retail Merchants took place in the merchants' hall Friday night, when they elected the following officers for the year: T. B.

El'Paso, Tex., Feb. 5. -Colonel Rabago andhis command of 300 Federals entered the city of Juarez at 9:25 tonight unmolested by the" insurrecto forces aud were received with joyful acclaim by the people of the city. The star of the insurrecto leader Paequal Orezoo, who was to ac cupy the city of Juarez by sun rise this morning, appears ., to be on the wane. His policv of de lay has enabled reinforcements to reach Juarez and the probability of taking that city new is consid ered much more remote than it was yesterday. Ooher reinforcements in the shape of General Navarro's col umn are en route from Chihuahua and will reach Juarez tonight or tomorrow. It is expected here that the Federals will be able to hold the city and that knowing this the insuTrectos will retire. There is a rumor tonight that the insurrectos are near Juarez but this cannot be certified. The net result of a battle at Baucho today between Orozco and Rabago was two killed and five w unded among the insurrectos. The Federal loss cannot be learn ed, as they carried their wounded with them, but it was reported that 170 had been killed.
