The- St. Louis exposition Is to be closed on Sunday, but the St. Louis theaters, dance halls und saloons will endeavor to prevent visitors suttcring from ennui on that day. The Pretoria correspondent of tho London Times succinctly summed up flio Boor war in saying that England has "practically captured, killed or wounded a whole nation." John D. Long is a triple ex -ex-con-grcBsman, ex-govcrnor, and cx-sccrc-tary of tho navy. Tufts college has just conferred upon him a title which will stick, that of doctor of laws.

President Stuyvesant Fish, of tho Illinois Central railroad, hos estab lished a model farm near Jackson, Miss., having about 10,000 acres, on which ho expects to Bcttlo white farmers. It Is said that Herbert C. Hoover Is one of tho highest-salaried men of his years in the Industrial world. At tho age of 20 ho is in receipt of $33,000 annually for his services as a mining expert. Tho coal trust refuses to raiso wages, but tho Independent opera tors havo granted the Increase. Thus do foots conflict with tho magazine articles and theories showing how great combinations will better tho condition of tho laboring man. The river Jordan Is not much of an improvement on tho Kaw. In cov ering a distance of 00 miles, for that is tho length of a straight line drawn on tho map between tho Sea of Gali lee and tlio Dead sea, it runs 212 miles because of tho multiplication of its windings. Tho literary character of tho Chica go directory scores a slight improve ment by tho recent matrimoninl merger of rioter llybnrczlc and Ma ryonna Staaszynska, Bolcslaw Wer baachowskl nnd ,'Jozcfu Czojkosky, and Anton Bryeywskl nnd Anna .7o jdjnska. Let tho good work go on. Senator William A. Clark, of Mon tana, whose income is estimated at $5 a second and who is giving John D. t Rockefeller a hot run for tho richest-mmi-In-thc-world belt, kicked up ik tremendous row in a Washing ton art gallery recently over tho loss of n measly overcoat valued at .$100. Not long ago Senator Uunna, on being asked whether, with all his business and political success, he did not sometimes wish for something more, promptly replied: "Yes, l have u wish similar to one expressed by nn ancient Jtomaii. I wish that 1 might eat what 1 please, and make some democrat digest it." One of "Private" John Allen's latest stories: "At u camp fire n strnnger arose- und told of his prow ess in two great battles. Whereupon a little man arose and called atten tion to tho- fact that they were fought on the same day, 1,500 miles upnrt. 'Comrades,' shouted the Ht ranger, 'there is a traitor in our midst. Throw him out!'" A university lecturer at. Chicago endeavored to startle his audience last week by declaring that tho aversion to labor is growing along with the desire to attain wealth without working for it. But is there any thing new about this? Does not tho preference to enjoy unearned wealth dato from the cradle of mankind? Is there nny prospect of the race ever outgrowing it? While at Oyster Bay Mrs. Uoosovelt received a letter from a publisher of a rather sensational periodical, in closing ti check for $500 and asking her to write a brief article for his next issue upon the management of a home, the training of children, the experience of a mistress of the white house, or any other subject she might ilnd more "congenial." Tho letter and check were returned without comment. . . HENDERSON INTERVIEWED. Tlio Hpoulcnr fiurprlxl to llmir tho Ito- xirt Hint IIhi Miller Hiiro Urlov- unco Airftlimt IIIiii. Dubuque, la., July 20. Speaker Henderson, in nn interview yesterday on the report about the National Millers' federation's grievance against him on the ground that ho prevented the passage of the London dock bill, said: "I had not heard anything of It un til Saturday last, when I first saw an article on tho subject. I was great ly surprised to see anything of tho kind from tho millers, whose friend I have been all the time, nnd I tried to get their bill through. I gave them the iloor once and let it como up the second time, but members in charge of tho measure wanted it passed over, us they hoped for n compromise between friends and enemies of the bill. This was twice that the bill's friends had nn oppor tunity. Later I proposed again to have the bill called up by calling upon tho committees, but Mr. Taw ney, author of tho bill, was absent that day and other friends of tho mensuro were unwilling to have it como up in his absence, so that is three times that tho bill practically had its dny in court, and for the rea sons named fniled to be disposed of, but in no instanco was it any fault of mine. The bill is a just one and ought to pass, and I hnvo no doubt it will pass at the short session of congress. I fear there has been very thoughtless misrepresentation about this matter, for it is not usual for men to attack their loyal friends." RAILWAY FATALITIES.

The life of Dr. JJussell Wilson, of Ohio, who was captured with a revolutionist party in Nicaragua, has been saved through tho representations of Minister Corca, of that country. A cablegram was received at the state department to-day from Chester Donaldson, United States consul at Mangun, Nicaragua, dated the 20th, as follows: "As a courtesy to the United States and sympathy for the mother, the president will commute Ilusscll Wil son's death sentence." Wilson was one of several Ameri cans who joined a filibustering ex pedition which landed at Monkey Point, nenr Bluctlolds, early in July. Most of the party were captured or killed. Wilson would have been sum marily executed but for the inter position of Senor Corca, the Nicura guun minister here. Having Becured a stay of proceedings and a guaran tee of a legal trial, the minister has now Indijced President Zelaya to commute the death sentence imposed upon Wilson by court-martial. Be fore tho receipt of this messngo it was not known that the court-martial had been held. It is presumed that the commutation is for im prisonment for a time, and then ex pulsion from Nicaragua. Senator Hauna, who has been most nctic in Dr. Wilson's case, was much gratified when shown the Associated press dispatch from Washington an nouncing that the president of Nicaragua would commute the sen tence of the prisoner.

Thin Mnn A'runcil Illn Tito Ooij "Cocon," II ecu ii we They "Were Ahrnj-i Together. "I never hear laziness discussed," said Frederick Kost, the artist, according to the New York Times, "but I think of old man Crawford, who used to keep an inn down on South beach, when the place was practical ly a wilderness, and a lot of us fellows were in the habit of running down there to sketch. He was without doubt the fellow most ut terly devoid of energy it is possible to im agine. He wouldn't have breathed if he could have helped it. "One of his sons, who had settled in New York, pent him two dnchshund pups. I re member just how Crawford would sit sun ning himself on the poroh the whole day. with one of these dogs, like animated sausages, on each side of him. They were always by him, one to the left, the other to the right of his chair, when they were at rest. "One day, as I sat talking to him, the dogs were romping in the house. Crawford turned and railed: 'Here, Cocoa, Cocoa!' and the dachshunds came trotting out. "What are their names, Crawford?" I asked, thinking; I had misunderstood. " 'Cocoa,' replied Crawford. " 'But there are two,' I reminded him. " 'One does for both,' replied the old man. 'They're always together come and go at the same time. And, anyhow, I'm not going to worry myself into a decline by thinking up dogs' names.' " PRESCRIBED FOR HER. Dcspcrnte Cimc Thnt Tnxcil the Doc tor' I'ntlcncc to the Utittoat. When Dr. Blank, of Fourteenth street, who isn't the most patient of men at any season of the year, goes away for a vacation nothing infuriates him so much as the eight of an invalid, says the Wasnington Post. A month ago he went to Atlantic City for a few days' rest, and he had no sooner settled himself for a brief time of being an ordi nary mortal than achionic patient of his appeared on his horizon. He endured her complaints all one day in silence, but the next morning she accosted him while he was smoking his cigar on the veranda after breakfast. ,! will say in her defense that she isn't married, and she hasn't a father, so she didn't know what she was doing when she broke in on a man's smoke. "Oh, doctor," said she, "I do wish you'd tell me what to do. 1 just can't sleep at all. Why. last night I didn't once close my eyes." The doctor glared at her. "I didn't close an eye," she went on. "I do wish you'd tell me what to do." The doctor glared again. "Good Lord, madam," he thundered, "try closing your eves. How on earth do you ex pect to sleep if you don't?" It Cures While Vou Wiilk.
