COLONEL KILLS EXTRA
MOOSE TO SAVE HIS LIFE.
Quebec, Oct. 5. How Colonel Roose
velt had to break the game' laws of
Quebec on his recent visit here and
kill an extra moose in order, to save
his own life is told in an -affidavit
sworn to by himself and his two guides
and now on file with the fish and- game
branch in the local parliament build
ing.
According to the .statements, the
colonel, who was the guest of the
Tourilli club, already had killed the
one moose allowed him by law and
was returning with two guides In the
canoe when they sighted another
moose at some distance. The animal
attempted to charge as soon as the
canoe came near the colonel and -his
guides being forced to put to deep
water. Colonel Roosevelt, thinking to
scare it, fired over its head, but this
only seemed to infuriate it
The way home lay through a small
stream connecting two lakes, and
shortly before them came to this tire
moose disappeared into the bush. and
the party thought that they had seen
the last of it. However, 'when the
canoe was half way down the stream
the animal again appeared
The water at this spot was only
about a foot deep and the moose be
gan his charge at about thirty feet
distant. Roosevelt fired over its head
despite the shouts of the guides, who
were urging him to kill the moose at
once. The moose kept on and then
the ex-president, realizing, as he said
afterward, that it was either his life
or that of the angry beast, fired again
and struck the latter in the chest at
about fifteen feet away. The animal
slowed up for a moment, but came on
again, and this time the big game hun
ter gave him the rest with a shot
through the head, which brought him
down. !

Mr Haze is said to be on his way to
his new home with his family, it be

The farm is one among the best in
that fertile and progressive section

state of cultivation. On the farm are
a good residence and outbuildings, in
cluding a corn mill. It is not known
what Mr. Allen will follow in the fu
ture. iRLSON CASES CONTINUED.
The cases against Charles A. Carl-
ponrwho is indicted for embezzlement
and false pretense in connection with
a deal he is alleged to have had with
Drv David j. Fuller, were continued for
trial from the present -.term of court.
SoUPitor yMichael. Schenck announc--
ed that the continuance was by con
sent of attorneys and that this course
was taken owing, to, the recent death
of Dr. Fuller, who is understood to
have preferred the charges. It is not
believed that Dr. Fuller's death will
have any affect upon the final outcome
of the case.

DISCUSSES WATER POWERSUIT.
(Fayetteville Observer.)
We Sprint today an adverse decision
of the State Supreme court against
the Blue Ridge Interurban Company
in a suit in which the said company
and the , Hendersonville Light and
Power company are at .issue. Chief
Justice Clark, in his opinion, in which
the "Other justices ,concurj gives the
Interurban some pretty . hard knocks,
and shows conclusively that Hender
sonville has right-on its- side, in tne
following utterances:
"This proposition is so clear that no
argument- should be required. , . The
defendants were certainly entitled to
the value of the property -which was
taken from them and undsr certain
circumstances they were entitled to
more than the above measure if, as
their testimony shows, this water-power
was necessary to enable them to
execute the contracts which they had
taken ojt proposed to take, in furnish- ,
ing light and power, the loss -of this
power might inflict much greater loss
upon them by reason of the disability
thus inflicted upon them, for it may
be that there'is no other water power
of. ready access which they can ac
quire fo rtheir purposes at the same
price.c'.iW-!.
Chief "Justice Clark can always be
found on the side of right, and fear
lessly performs hiis duty as he sees it.
Such qualifications are eminently nec
essary in. the honest administration of
justice and it is to be deplored that
they are too often conspicuous by their
absence, even in our courts of highest
appeal. Fo rsuch reason, men like
Judge Clark deserves the utmost con
fidence and esteem of the people, and
in the end it is almost always accord
ed them. 1 ,

ACCORDING TO BILLY SNNDAY.
Evangelist - Hits From the Shoulder
And Utters a Truth. :
We are not an especial admirer or
Billy Sunday, but. we are willing to
admit that he says some good-things,
of which, the following are sample..
A Plea For Wives.
"Boys, don't take a girl just because
of her looks when she's all fussed jip.
Uo call on her. Stay till about 10
.SJS l!
glove or something and. go back the
next morning, early. , If she meets
yoju with her hair in curl-papers, a
shoe on one foot and a slipper on the
other take to the woods and don't
wait for the glove. If she is in a heat
working dress, with her "sleeves rolled
up and -a ribbon or thing-um-ma-jig
in her hair, grab her quick.
"And you married men: Brag on
your wives while you've got 'em.
Give them flowers and candy once in
a while; tell 'em you're glad to havtf
them around. And you'll see that old
bent back bent in ' mending your
socks and getting .your meals
straighten up on the installment plan.-
Try it. : - 'r
'Dont wait until they're six feet
underground and then offer-them
flowers and say, 'Here, smell ' these"
It's too late then. ' A whole lot of
money is spent for fine caskets that
shoud nave been.' spent for a hired
gin. ine oniy reason some men
spend money on their wife'p funeral
is to try to. pull the wool over anbth'4
er -woman's-reyesJ I know a man who
explained ;his; selectfdn1" of awife ont
the ground that she bore the reputa
tion of being the best worker in the
neighborhood. I know another man
who bought a mule on the same re
commendation. Think of the mockery
of atombstone inscription, "At Rest,'
over the body of a woman who . has
worked herself to . death for ome.
mean, stingy, hatchet-faced husband."
The Home And The Mother,
"If It had not been for the expostula
tions and the pleadings of his, mother
George Washington would have be
come a midshipman in the 'Britis';
navy, and the name .of that capit;'. i
yonder would have been some othc '
would have been an infidel.' Gr?

nurcnyaro, said ne -was one c
large family of children that had
misfortune to survive their mother. . ,
"The training of a Martin Luther
or a John Bunyan is greater than , the
training of a Caesar or an Alexander
the Great. To launch a boy for Christ
is better than launching a battleship
or a cruiser. '
That 'glittering piller down there
on the banks of the Potomac is George
Washington's monument but it is his
mother's monument, too.
Back In 1850 an American went
across the seas, died and was buried
in a foreign land. Who was it sleep

he fought? None. What statute had
he carved? None. What great ora
tion had he delivered? None. He
had simply written a little song. John
Howard Paine had written. 'Be it
ever so humble there is no place like
home ". -
A PRESSING NEED.
A bill has recently been introduced
into the New York Legislature pro
viding that the state Constitution shall
be so changed as to require all voters
to read and write the English language.-
Great opposition has developed as
was expected, but Indications point to
a favorable outcome. The most ordent
opponents appear to be hyphenated
Americans.
The illiterate and the foreign-ton-gued
voters are doomed. If we are
to have sane, 'intelligent, efficient
laws and constitutions the makers
must be able to read and . write .the
English tot-gue intelligently. -
A chance to learn reading and
writing must be given every citie of
our , commonwealths. . ' That chance
must ' be provided and supported
through public V taxes. University
