of the defendant in the suit of the United

Mr. Harrlman, In . his answer denied
that he, with Jacob Sehlff, Otto 11. Kahn.

secretary of agriculture to make a demon
stration of rrocesses of manufacturing
denatured alcohol at the Omaha Corn
show and appropriating $5,000 ror mm
purpose. Senator Burkett will also follow
up Congressman Pollard's amendment to
the agricultural bill and press the pro
vision of the bill, which went out on
point of order, providing for the standard
isation of grains at seven ports or export

Better Mall Facilities. '
The Postofflce department has decided
to allow Senator Burkett's request for the
establishment -of. mall service on trains
Noa. 26 and 26 between Valparlso and

ment of an additional clork. Complaint

their mail to .Valparaiso on these trains.
The senator took, it up and on Saturday
the department . granted . his request and
made the crder effetclve.

"The question is not whether the -re
publicans will carry Ohio; the queEtion
Is only how large the republican major
ity In the state will be," la the reply of
Congressman Longworth to statements
about the political conditions in the Buck
eye state recently put in circulation
"The fact is," he added, "that the repub
licanism of any man In Ohio who does not
support Secretary Taft for president may
be fairly described as questionable. Ohio
has always stood by Its favorite sons,
Wo are proud to vote for a son of Ohio
for president, and when the time comes
all republicans and a good many demo
crats of the state will vote for Secretary
Taft."

These Indians came to Washington regard
ing pending legislation looking to the open
ing to white settlement of at least half of
their reservation, and of allotment of lands
to them. If the pending bills become a
law, about 3,200,000 acres in North and
South Dakota will be put upon the market,
leaving the Indians with about the same
number ot acres. Major McLaughlin, In
dlan inspector, who negotiated the treaty

Dry Farming Bill Goes Over.
The bill for opening dry farming lands of

acres of land for each entryman under the
homestead laws was discussed in the senate

and philosopher, "how big a tip a porter
sometimes gets for doing a very tittle
thing." He added: "A passenger once
tipped me extra because he said I did not
leave his shoestrings coiled up Inside his
shoes after I hsd blacked them. He said
nothing msdo him madder than to slip on
his shoes In a hurry In a sleeper, only to
find that ha had to take them off again
because the shoestrings were Inside. Ever
since that time I have been careful not to
leave shoestrings Inside of the shoes 1

thanked me for being thoughtful. But It
wasn't me that did the thinking. The tip
did that for me, and I never forgot It "

Is nothing Itft on the western hemisphere
to a growing ambition, save the whale. Ac
cordingly, the crew of the Irene had tha
mania at the head of their list.
The tana of hitting a devil-fish from a
fourteen-foot boat was left to the bachelor
of the party, the married member explaining
that he felt his duty to the ones at home
excluded him from anything that smacked
so of suicide. Accordingly, when near-the
next fish, the skiff put out from the stern
tif the Irene, the spearman standing In the
bow wnile the shipjxT stood the big boat
away so as to give the f.sli a clean fld
at the fiist runh.

wat good-, the fish half filled the boat with
his first splash, and then rushed away In
a great swinging circle, o that In fifteen
minutes It-was possible for the sloop to cut
across and catch up; when, by some ma
noeuvring, it became possible to puss the
tn-board end of the line up to Its bow-sprit.
After that It was a fight to finish, with
the devil-fish on one end of the line and
Itle ten-ton sloop on the other. For a long
time It seemed as though the devil-fish had
the better Of it. Ha towed that big boat
steadily out lato the gulf for three hours
and twenty minutes. It waa exactly like
being In tuw of a falr-sticd tug. The prog
ress of the boat was not fast, but as steady
as If It were being driven by the Irene s
own engines,
. It may be fair to remark that killing a
devil-fish entails us much genuine muscle
racking hard work as any task on earth.
It la much the same as pulling for hours
against a yoke of oxen who are moving off
entirely Indifferent to one s futile efforts.
The devll-flsh will not let simple towtiig
tire him. If left to himself, he will sound to
.boUoi.t, nd after resting proceed on ad
Infinitum. It Is to prevent such, resting that
one must work constantly by hauling the
tow in close tu Mm, thereby frightening
him- to constant effort.' If he can be
strainrd lo the point of weakening, then lie
may be hauled- chute enough to harpoon
again.-8crlbr's Monthly.
