C. a* Second C!n*i» Mai! Matter, Friday. June 16, iqii CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY By A. W. MACY. PAUL REVERE MORE THAN A MIDNIGHT RIDER. Every school boy knows about Paul Revere and his famous ride, "on the eighteenth of April, Seventy-five," but a great msny people arc not aware that he did anything else worthy of mention. He wac not a grsat man. He V«a3 just a plain citi zen, but unlike many plain citi- j zens, he was always ready to da I his pubi c duly. Hs was full of J energy ar.d cf a fiery temper, j He M*s always in the th''ck cf | the fight, Mhatcver.lt might be j about, and w- 1 * usua'ly cn the 1 right aide. C/ occupation he was En engraver, and- lie vns clto an fl-t.it cf coisldtrab'e I ability. Many specimens ef his I work mo preserved. In 1733 j* England j colonial $c- retary, | Lord Hiiiiborough, d'rccted the J Maserchusetts as3embty to re- I ecind its; circular letter protest ing agninct the stamp act. The assembly refused to do to, by a vote of f2 to 17. In the old „ct-ite houce at Boston may b? seen a large 3>lver punch bov/! I which Paul Hewers wSs commie bioned by the Sons cf Liberty to make for "the iramcrtaj 32," Ncr were the 17 "rescincers" neglected, for there may still be seen a caricature of them, dra vn by Revere. It represents them as being driven by devils into j the mouth cf hell. (Copyright. I'll, by Jnarpti L 5 Bnwloa.) Cir i-• Nv.i >ll lea 1 aft'-r a life wit ho it a counter part in history. Her tint hod of attacking the demon drink was odd, \ei there is no .doubt that in many instances .ifrent good v.-a- done At leant, she made the people think while thev were retnovnn the broken gli«s,aiid hot: lis After torty sears of lit' 4 as a teacher, Miss Ann Newell ot Bos ton, advises women teachers to "tlirt to rest a tired mind nftei the arduous duties of the school room " She evidently see* when* she has missed halt of life. But was it not strange that such advice should come from a woman of her exper ience? Perhaps, she thought that more attractive women would, if there was a suspension of the rules against flirting, desire to enter the profession Reform Begins We have urged from time to time the dire necessity t?f keeping r— pr the pavements clean as tuuch as possible. To do this, ah anti spitting ordinance enforced by the police would have hat to be passed by the Board of Town Commis sioners. Other towns have had such a law for years and the dirty, filthy habit of expectoration has been kept down to a degree not noticea ble. It has been claimed by those wl lo know that much of the dis eases prevalent have been distribut ed in this manner. There is not the least doubt that what has been said about the habit i? true and more so than the public realizes. Then it is not only unhealthful but unsightly. Pass, if you will, down the street at any time and note the streams of tobacco juice 011 the cement walks Ladies with their summer or even winter skirts pass along aqd not infrequently soil them and, perhaps, carry the germs oi deseafe home with them' Now it is with a great deal oi sitisfaction that we atftounce the . action of the new Board of Com missioners—they have seen their duty and have passed an anti spit ting ordinance", and we congratulate - them and the public in having men in charge of affairs who are alive to the needs of the people Another - step in the right direction —the good work has begun. Let it go o on. 0 —r » Cure for Consumption No disease which has attacked the world has received so much at tentive study as consumption. For a generation medical men have - knowu that the disease was produc ed by a germ. Various supposed cures havt been given to the pub lie, but nothing effective. \Jany cases not too far advanced have been cured by natu-al means, such as outd'or living, change of climate and a nourishing diet of milk and eggs. Creosote has been used extensively but had no lasting effects and >0 the tubercular patient has been offered 110 hope tor a per manent cure. Vet the medical fraternity has never ceased to experiment and' iiowiti* the Hungarian, I)r de j Sz-rdi ffy, of Budapest, that has 1 giv en to the world the latest remedy.

Cat Out of Bag • . j Soon after President Taft enteied the White House a movement was started by members of Congress to bring about an investigation of the sugar trust It was not a partisan movement. Setiatoi Borah of Idaho, republican, introduced a sugar investigation resolution iu the Senate, and Campbell of Kau-1 sas introduced a similar one in the House The President was greatly dis pleased. He sent a message to Congress advising against an" in vestigations on the ground that it 1 might give immunity to the men I higher-up and otherwise etnbarass . the government. The message was t based on an opinion of United i States Attorney General Wicker i sham, who was inspiring Washing e ton dispatches at the time with the r impression that he was about to s prosecute men higher-up for a the $2,000,000 sugar underweight t frauds. Now come 9 the Attorney Gen fjeral with the statement, made under oath before a House investi gating committee, that he never be lieved that the heads of the sogar trust could be successfully prose cuted for the underweight frauds. He also says that they would not have secured immunity from pro secution had they testified. In other words the reasons given i by both thfc President aud the at torney general as to why the sugar trust should ijol be ingestigated under a republican house, are now admitted to have been fictitious. The real reason as to why the I republicans were unwilling to per-: mit a congressional investigation of j the sugar trust now becomes deba- 1 table Was it because the attorney | general had been a former sugar! trust attorney and was prejudiced in favor of the innocence of the: men higher tip? Was it because Henry P. Taft the brother of the; president, was a sugar trust attor ney? Or was it because the sugar trust h.'iS alwavs been a friend and j ally ot the Republican pi » ty , and | one of its star campaign contribu-! tors? house of Jones Jones painted his house last year It looks dull, le«'l no life to it.
