The imigration commissioners at New York tried to keep an Bnglish joker from landing. How they found out he was a joker is not explained. Count Boni says he would rather beg his bread than suffer an injury to his pride. Boni has tried every way of getting his bread except working for it. If the rush keeps on, there is danger that the White House Dem ocrats will be crowding the front feet of the White House Republi cans out of the trough. Mr. John D. Rockefeller is still missing. The jailer at Omaha, however, can prove that Pat Crowe has not carried out his old threat to kidnap the oil king Gov. Mago on testifies that men may be put to death in the Panama canal zone without trial. It seems to be easier to put them to death than to put theui to work. Of course ex-Congressman linker of Brooklyn, would uot hold an ot fice under the condition that he keep still. He is a chronic suffer er from ingrowing opinions. Georgia drummers are demand ing a law for clean streets. They ought to consult with Hapgood and Collier of New York who have done something toward getting cleaner streets.

That kind of argument is liable to if«w the railroads want govern ment control. The reason Dr. Dade's Little Urer Pills give perfect satisfaction is due to their tonic effect on the lhrer. They never gripe. Sold by BIRTHDAY OF W ASHINTON. Yesterday was the birthdav of George Washington, the ideal of the people of America. He is the people's ideal because his great life work was a contribu tion to the happiness of Americans that were yet unborn. Americans love Washington be cause his life was vicarious, self sacrificing. No man can live in the hearts o( any people, unless be shows by every action of his life that he is willing to sacrifice every thing for the good of his country. Washington was, says a great Revolutionary orator, "Ligbthorse Harry" Lee, "first in War, first in Peace and first in the hearts of his Countrymen." He was first in war because be had fought the indians and proven his valor and grit and overcome the British Lion by his sharp, keen guerrilla movements; first in Peace liecause he had been first in war, he had been tested in war, and he proved to be first in Peace; and as a result of these two tests he was first in the hearts of his country men, and he ever will be. Washington was a man who did things and he did them for pos terity and not for self, hence he is the nation's ideal. The spirit of (his great man still watches over us with vigilant eye. His life is thoroughly engrafted into our life; he is part and parcel of us. Hence we consecrate throughout the States the twenty second of February as the nation's sacred day. THE REAL DEPEW. "High on a throne of royal state which far outshone the wealth of Ormus and of Ind, or where the gorgeous West, by the cunning hand of a grafter, showers on the Vaudcrbilts franchises and tax ex emptions, Depew exalted sat, by merit raised to that bad eminence." This is quite a good picture of the junior Senator from New York, and the closing words of the drama of a life spent like his was, are, "The path of my glory leads me to my grave." If the article in the March Cosmopolitan, "The Trea son of the Senate," be true, what a falling off there has been, or rather what a sham Depew has puf up for these many years ! Seventeen years ago, on the oe c ision of the celebration of the one hundredth anniversary of the in auguration of Washington, he was the orator of the occasion. It was a grand effort, but if we as a 11 itiou had celebrated birthday of Washington yesterday we would want anybody in America but t le sugar-coated Chauncy Depew, t'le tool of the Vanderbilts, the man who said seventeen years ago that "the grand central idea in the Declaration of Independence was the sovereignty of the people." But now we learn that Depew was the man who made the Vander bilts rich by his shrewd lobbying at Albany getting measures passed for a class, by keeping in touch with local politicians and by every tiieans his ingenuous brain could oncoct. The writer says "the Depew laugh has cost the people of Atuer- ICA one billion dollars." The ac -1 nil cost of the capital at Albany A'. is four million, but with Depew commissioner it cost twenty-five million. There must surely be daggers in men's smiles. The American peo ple don't want such a man to be the orator of the day when they meet to pay tribute to a Washing ton or a Jetterson. They want a speaker whose life and character attest the mm behind the speech. They want Unreal man, not the "greasy tonguM" politician who works for a class, but the states man who spends his life for the amelioration of the whole Ameri can people. , Pinesalve is the best salve for sores, burns, boils, tetter, eczema, skin diseases and piles.

She was the widow of Samuel Gill, who was an inventor, but was one of those unfortunate persons who never realized anything from the result of his genius; generally some one else got rich from bis idea. Samuel Gill was the real invent or of the Colt revolver, which was used in the United States army for a long time and has for many years held a high rank among scientific and practical fire arms. This was the best product of his inventive genius. It is said that after Gill had com pleted the model of the revolver he went to Washington with the in tention of having it patented. While there he became acquainted with Colt, to whom he showed the model. Colt sceiug that the in vention was good obtained posses sion of it by borrowing it, saying that he wanted to show it to a friend. The next day Gill became seriously ill and was in that condi tion several weeks. When he re covered the model revolver and man were gone. In after years, subsequent to the death of Colt, the story of Gill was told to Mrs. Colt, who upon verifi cation of this statement, seut Mr. Gill $2,000 for his invention. That amount was soon lost, however, and the family have depended on charity. Mr. Gill died several years ago.—Special to The Raleigh Kvening Times. A Wonderful Saving The largest Methodist Church in Georgia, used 32 gallons of L. & M. mixed with 24 gallons of oil, thus making painfjjtost about $1.20 per gallon.

Startling Bit Trii People the world over were hor rified on learning of the burning of a Chicago theater in which nearly six hundred people lost their lives, yet more than five times this tiuni l>er or over 3,000 people died from pneumonia in Chicago during the same year, with scarcely a passing notice. Kvery one of these cases of pneumonia resulted from a cold and could have l)een prevented by the timely use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedv. A great many who had every reason to fear pneumonia have warded it off by the- prompt use of this remedy. The following is an iustance of this sort: "Too much cannot be said in favor of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and especially for colds and influenza. I know that it cured my daughter, Laura, of a severe cold, and I believe saved her life when she was threatened with pneumonia." W. D. Wilcox, Logan, New York. Sold by S. R Biggs.
