SOME POLITICS.
Id what is termed an "off poll
tical year," there is a singular in
dividual and party indifference as
to the words and actions of lead
ing and prominent statesmen and
politicians. Take a year when
conventions meet and men are
striving for political nominations,
the thoughless word and act are
given startling prominence, and
may ruin political aspirations and
destroy chances.
But nothing counts seriously in
politics at present. The announce
ment that W. E. Hearst has re
turned to the democratic fold,
prominent man that he is, has
provoked only the faintest ap
plause. In a political year it
would have furnished press news
for days, with editorial comment
from every section of the country.
The press dispatches say President
Taft is not receiving any great
warmth of reception by the crowds
that greet him on his western
trip. It is some time before a
national convention and people
hear from the President the things
that most of them know, and if he
makes "issues," who cares in an
off year to study political issues t
Then there is William J. Bryan
who endorses Senator La Follette,
a republican, for the Presidency.
And Congressman Underwood
makes the forecast that William
B. Hearst will be a candidate for
the Presidential nomination at the
next national democratic conven
tion. And yet there is no public
or political upheaval over these
declarations. All of which goes
to show how nothing counts when
the political game is not on.

Th Art of Poitoning.
Professional poisoners arose early in
our era. It Is recorded that Agrlpplna
(A. D. 26) refused to eat upples at the
table of her father-in-law, Tiberius,
through fear of poison. The notorious
Locusts flourished in that epoch. It
is charged that she supplied with ap
propriate directions the poison by
which Agripplna rid herself of Clau
dius. She also furnished the poison
that was administered to Britannlcus
by order of Nero. This crime was
committed In quite a conventional
manner. The Romans were accustom
ed to drink hot water at table, but the
same temperature did not appeal to
all A slave offered hot water to Bri
tannlcus. "Too hot," he remarked.
The slave added cold water. Britan
nlcus drank, gasped once or twice and
died. The cold water was poisoned
either with a cyanide or with prusslc
acid.

OUR EARLY CURRENCY.
The
First American Coins and
the
8erlea Struok at Boston.
The very earliest coinage that can
properly be said to be "strictly Ameri
can" was ordered by the original Vir
ginia company In the year 1612, only
five years after the founding of Jamestown.-
These coins were minted at
Somen islauds.inow known as the Ber
mudas. For a period of more than a
quarter of a century after this, bow
ever, tobacco and beaver skins were
reckoned as Lawful currency.
In 1645 the assembly of Virginia
met and declared that it "had mature
ly weighed and considered how ad
vantageous a quolne (coin) would be
to this colony and how much better
It would be than a sole dependency
upon tobacco and pelts." After this
they provided for the coinage of cop
per coins of the denominations of two
pence, threepence, sixpence and nlne
penc, but this resolution was never
carried Into effect.
The first coinage In America proper
was the series or coins "struck" at
Boston under the order of the general
court of Massachusetts passed May
27, 1652, the coins being three, six and
twelve pence denominations, "in forme
flatt and stamped on one side with the
letters 'N. E.' and, on the other the
value of the piece."

A MOUNTAIN RESCUE.
f Mind That Btoppad a Slid
- - te Death.
On entering central Asia after a trip
across India Major E. L. Kennloo
witnessed a rescue which was due to
toe quickness of decision and prompt
action of a native. The story Is given
In "Sport and Life In the Farther
Himalayas." The party had started
to climb over thepasa called Miutaka
by moonlight The cold was lnteuse
and the way slippery and uncertain.
No one having crossed the pass that
year, the guide took a wrong line and
led ns serosa an Ice slope that was

"Fixing" the Ball Grounds.
Hugh S. Fullerton, the baseball ex
pert, tells In the American Mntfizine
of the queer ethics of the national
game. He writes:
" 'Fixing the grounds so as to give
the home team the advantage and
handicap the visiting players Is I lie
commonest form of trickery, yet In
professional ball it is not considered
wrong, any more than a commander
of a defensive army would consider
It wrong to prepare breastworks t.i
meet an enemy. The extent to whic h
the fixing of grounds is carried Is
amazing. There probably Is not a
major or minor league grounds in the
country on which the home players
have not the advantage, and visit inn
teams are forced to be on tbe alert
from the moment they enter a field
to discover, if possible, what they are
up agalust."
