f M)S OF SOME GREAT MEN. WORK OF PRIVATE SECRETARIES OF GREAT IMPORTANCE. Four Persons Who Stand Between Prominent Beings and the Pub lic—Difficult Post of Car dinal Merry del Val. New York.—Any one who has ever tried to get an interview with Presi dent Roosevelt or a personal letter from him knows that there is a man named Loeb who must be overcome before the inner circle is reached. If you have a brilliant idea that will al low Andrew Carnegie to benefit either PRIVATE SECRETARY BERTRAM. (The Man Who Answers Practically All of Carnegie’s Mail.) yourself or several million suffering humanity you must convince a man named Bertram that you are talking sense before Mr. Carnegie is even aware of your existence. Likewise, if you make the pilgrimage to Rome to receive the blessing of the Pope you must first see Monsignor Bisleti be fore the inner doors of the Vatican are thrown open to you. It takes a great man to be a secre tary to great men; in some cases if the two were to change places the STATUE TO A CHICAGO MAYOR. Model of Memorial to Be Erected in Union Park. Chicago.—Plans have been perfect ed and a site selected for the erection of a statue of the late Carter Harrison, "Chicago’s World's Fair Mayor,” who was assassinated in October of 1893. The Carter Harrison Memorial asso ciation, which ha3 the matter in charge, has completed arrangements with the West park commissioners and the statue, when finished, will stand in Union park. The work is to be done by F. W. Hibbard, the Chicago sculptor, and will be made of bronze. The figure itself will be eight feet high and the pedestal eight feet six inches. The unveiling will take place in June of next year. The project has been in progress since shortly after the death of Mr. Harrison, but the needed funds were not secured until this year. The ac companying picture shows the small plaster of paris model which the sculp tor has made. The work of making the final model and the bronze cast ing will take some time and it will be a year before the statue is com plete. The Harrison statue will be one of the first to be placed in a park to commemorate locai political history or perpetuate the memory of a man who served the city in the political field. The pedestal will bear inscrip tions giving a sketch of the late may or's life and services, placed on bronze tablets set in the granite. It is hoped that the erection of the statue will start a precedent for the placing of the statues of men who have served Ox Cart with Bis Wheels. Unique Vehicle Owned by a Massachu setts Farmer. Boston.—One of the most unique ox -carts In the country is that owned by Byron H. Waite, of North Blandford, Mass. The cart was built by Mr. Waite's k father in his currycomb factory many years ago, and was designed especial ly for use in gathering hay in steep haylots. It is a common saying in Blandford that “if you want to hay it around on the Waite farm you must stand on your head.” No common hayrack can be used there, as the hay drawn over those hilly roads can only be kept from fall ing out by means of high board sides on the cart. The wheels of the cart are a great curiosity, the hubs are one and one half times as large as the top of a piano stool, and the tires are probably two feet wide, and the tongue of the cart is a good weight for three men to lift To pull this load, Mr. Waite’s oxen, tramp around up hill and down! knowing that the hay they carry will furnish them with many a good meal after it has lain awhile in Mr. Waite’s spacious bam. A BROILER. Ok9 • Sotton ■i world would run on just as smoothly. There is a story told of a public man who had frequent intercourse with a former president. One morning he came into the private secretary’s office when that man was out He looked anxiously about One of the clerks came up to him and said: “Mr. Blank, do you vant to see the president?” “No,” answered the man, “it is very important and I want to see the pri vate secretary himself." It is Mr. Loeb who answers 99 per cent, of the president's mail, and since every person who writes is certain that his letter is important and as 98 per cent of them are rubbish, you can see that the task is not easy. Whenever the president travels Mr. Loeb goes with him, and at every station he meets men whom he has talked with for three minutes about four years ago; he ha: to recall their names and faces and greet them as old friends, for to forget them would be a slight that would wound the heart and pride of the local “Filipino.” Mr. Bertram, Mr. Carnegie’s private secretary, has a task that, in its way, is quite as difficult. The world is full of persons who could spend another man's millions to perfection, and soon er or later their ideas float into Mr. Bertram’s office. It tak-s a staff of clerks and a man with a fine head to answer them. Mr. Carnegie never sees those letters; it is only once a month that a real good idea comes in. All the rest have to be answered in language that will sooths as well as decline. Cardinal Merry del Val is really more than a secretary; he is the dip lomatic head of the Catholic chnrch, and his work is more difficult than Secretary Root’s. He is the man who receives the foreign ambassadors as signed to the Vatican; he must con tinually steer clear of the petty rules of etiquette that make miserable the diplomatic life; he must direct the foreign policy of the church, which requires the mature ability of a states man. Monsignor Bisleti is the man you must see if you have a favor to ask; he is the last barrier on the road to the presence of the Pope. Lord Knollys, private secretary to King Edward, is another uncrowned monarch of the antechamber. He has the gift of politeness down to such a fine point that letters from him on the most trivial matter are given to the papers, as letters of great favor and distinction. STATUE OF HARRISON. the municipality well in the public parks. IN THE NATIONAL Pat Moran is doing good work for the Cubs in the absence of Kling, who is in St. Louis on account of the death of his father. It is reported that Cincinnati has signed Charley Pruitt, the crack field ing pitcher of the St. Paul team. Pruitt has a record of 11 assists and four putouts in one game without an error. Jimmie Collins and Barney Dreyfut of the Boston and Pittsburg clubs re spectively are after Heinie Berger of the Columbus association team. Manager Chance of the Cubs still leads the league in stolen bases, hav ing 37. He passed his century mark in hits last Saturday. Lumley has now made eight home runs and leads the National league in that particular. In Fred Clarke's absence Hans Wag ner captains the Pirates. The Pittsburg club will sign two of Cantillon's Milwaukee players shortly. Frank Oberlin and Clyde Goodwin are the ones. They are playing good ball in the American association. The suspension of Fred Tenny of the Boston Nationals is the first case on the team this season. Smoot, who was traded from St. Louis to Cincinnati, is now starting to connect with the ball. He made only one hit in the first five games, but has made three in the last two. AMERICAN LEAGUE NEWS Lee Quillin, third baseman of the Lincoln, Neb., club and a star in the Western league for the past two sea sons, has become the baseball proper ty of Magnate Comiskey of the Chi cago American league team. Quillin is to finish the season w'ith Lincoln, after which he is to go to Chicago and join the White Sox. Another pitcher was added to the White Sox list for 1907 when Presi dent Charles A. Comiskey signed Pitcher Cheney of the Bartlesville Kansas state league team. Cheney Is considered a comer in that league, and won 19 out of the 23 games he has twirled this season. He is a right hander, and a good batter. Jack Warner, the veteran catcher of the Detroit Tigers, has been sold to I~l ... ■ . . 1—I John Anderson. the Washington Americans and will join that team at once. Flick of Cleveland has made 23 hits in 14 games. Donohue of Chicago up to date has the highest put-out record of any first baseman in the league, with a number of 1,121 in 103 games. Tannehill of the Sox has only stolen one base in 30 games. Crawford of Detroit is the first player of that club to pass the 100 mark in base hits. Waddell has fanned 129 men in 23 games. Thirteen is the most he struck out at one time. Anderson of Washington leads the league in stolen bases, with 26 thefts credited to him. Chase of New York has made 131 raps in 93 games. Davis of Philadelphia is credited with 28 two-baggers, seven three-bag gers and ten home runs. AMONG THE MINORS. Buffalo and Jersey City drew great crowds in their series. The two teams are the leaders of the Eastern league. The Sharon, Pa., ball team has had four managers this season, the latest being G. A. Bates of St. Louis. Sharon is in the P. & O. league. Pitcher Buchanan has lost no less than four three-hit games this season. Hard luck still pursues the former American league twirler. He is at present with Nashville. Camnitz, the former Pittsburg pitcher, is doing some very good work for Toledo. lfie terre Haute club has signed Second Baseman Sherman Bristow, of Chicago. Evansville has traded Shortstop Fremer to Terre Haute for Shortstop Ruh, both of :he Central league. Umpire Newhouse has resigned from the Virginia league to take a berth with the South Atlantic league. Second Baseman Roy Brashear has been appointed captain-manager of the Louisville team. “Rabbit” Robinson, a Pittsburg farm hand, Is just at this time the idol of Milwaukee fans. Pitcher Wiley Piatt has been sus pended without pay by the Toledo club until he gets into condition. The Kansas City club has traded Inhelder Billy Phyle to St Louis Na tionals for Pitcher Egan and Short stop McBride. Word has been received at Central league headquarters in South Bend that Manager McKinley, despite pro tests, has decided to resign the man agement of the Dayton baseball team on August 8. He will go Into busi ness in Pennsylva-'a BACKACHE IS KIDNEYACHE. Set at the Cause—Cure the Kidneys. Don't neglect backache. It warns you of trouble in the kidneys. Avert the danger by cur ing the kidneys with Doan's Kidney Pills. J. A.

At the Army and Navy club in Washington a number of veteran offi cers were telling stories, when Gen. Chaffee told this anecdote of Gen. Carr, who died in New York some years ago: It appears that Gen. Carr, at the outbreak of the civil war, had left Troy to take command of a regiment. The engagement in which, as colonel, he first figured was at Big Bethel. His regiment had been halted for rest and refreshment in a pleasant place and had not yet experienced the ex citement of a skirmish. It happened however, that confederates were in ambush in the immediate neighbor hood and from a safe hiding place they opened fire on the northerners Carr, so the story runs, instantly put spurs to his horse and dashed up to a group of officers. Excitement and bewilderment were apparent upon his young face as he approached the party. ‘‘They are firing upon my regi ment!” he shouted. “My God! Now what is to be done?”—Harper’s Weekly. _ Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome. Dr. Herman Reinbold, the expert German chemist, in a recent official report concerning Baking Powders, declares that a pure alum baking pow der is better and less injurious than the so-called cream of tartar powders. He says that if the quantity of alum contained in a sufficient quantity of baking powder for a batch of bread or cakes for an ordinary family, be con centrated to one mouthful of food, and taken into the stomach of any one person, no matter how delicate, it could do no harm. On the contrary, alum is wholesome in proper quanti ties. This is undoubtedly the reason the State of Missouri quickly repealed a law that prohibited the manufacture of the most wholesome of all baking powders. So much for Alum Baking Powders. Strange Story—But True. F. L. Vandegrift has a new story. It is illustrative of the marvelous fe cundity of the English sparrow. “I was pending Sunday with the Dumont Smiths, at Kinsley,” said Van, in recounting his experience. “We had been up late the night be fore and I was a trifle drowsy. I sat out on the front porch listening to the church bells and gazing off into the illimitable space that lies between a shortgrass town and the horizon beyond. “Presently I dropped my hat into a bed of Virginia creeper and dozed off to sleep. I could not have slept more than an hour, for the children were passing the house on the way ' from Sunday school when I awoke. I rubbed my eyes and glanced over at my hat. In it sat an English spar row brooding a setting of eggs. While I slept the sparows had built a nest in my hat, the mother bird had laid a full complement of eggs and had be gun the work of hatching them.”— Kansas City Journal. His Only Concern. A well known member of the New Tork bar, a man of most patronizing manner, one day met John G. Car lisle, to whom he observed loftily. “I see, Carlisle, that the supreme court has overruled you in the case of Mullins versus Jenkinson. But,” he added, in his grand way, “you, Car lisle, need feel no concern about your reputation.” Carlisle chortled. “Quite so,” he agreed. ‘Tm only concerned for the reputation of the supreme court.”— Harper’s Weekly. DUBIOUS About What Her Husband Would Say. A Mich, woman tried Postum Food Coffee because ordinary coffee dis agred wtih her and her husband. She writes: “Hy husband was sick for three years with catarrh of the bladder, and palpitation of the heart, caused by coffee. Was unable to work at all and in bed part of the time. “I had stomach trouble, was weak and fretful so I could not attend to my housework—both of us using cof fee all the time, and realizing it was harmful. “One morning the grocer’s wife said she believed coffee was the cause of our trouble and advised Postum. I took it home rather dubious about what my husband would say—he was fond of coffee. "But I took coffee right off the table, and we haven't used a cup of it since. You should have seen the change in us, and now my husband never complains of heart palpitation any more. My stomach trouble went away in two weeks after I began Pos tum. My children love it and it does them good, which can’t be said of coffee. “A lady visited us who was always half sick. I told her I’d make her a cup of Postum. She said it was taste less stuff, but she watched me make it, boiling it thoroughly for 15 min utes, and when done she said it was splendid. Long boiling brings out the flavor and food quality.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book “The Road to WellvUle,” in pkga. “There's a reason.” THE WHITE RiVER COUNTRY. In the opinion of one who has trav eled much and observed closely, the most truly and rightfully contented people in the United States to-day are the small landowners in what is known as the Upper White River Coun try, anywhere from Newport, Ark., to Carthage, Mo. They are contented be cause their surroundings are ideal and, until recently, the great, uneasy, dis quieting world, with its artificial needs and inadequate compensations, has been to them but little more tangible than a dream. Here, still existent, and by reason of their very rarity at this day and time more delectable than in the past, are the conditions which have ever appealed with irre sistible force to the independent-spir ited Anglo-Saxon. Every man is the supreme ruler of his own little prin cipality; acknowledging no master save the law—and possibly his fem inine helpmeet; cringing to no em ployer; asking no favors from the world, save those that his neighbors freely extend and expect as freely in return. He lives in a latitude where the extremes of heat or cold are never known, and at an altitude that insures perfect health. The richest bounty of Nature has been showered upon him with unsparing hand, but it is a question whether he more than dimly realizes the fact. He accepts as a mat ter of course the fertile soil which produces in abundance every cultiv able growth common to the north temperate zone, the surrounding for ests of valuable woods and the under lying stratas of precious minerals, the springs and streams of translucent purity on every hand, the wealth of fish and game at his very door, such as less favored mortals annually travel hundreds of miles to find. He is con tented, but small credit is his for that, for how could he well be otherwise than content? It is sad that such idealistic conditions may not con tinue, but it is written that the pres ent possessors of this favored land must soon give place to others more appreciative of its incomparable fea tures. A railroad has recently cut its way through the best of this region, and the unaccustomed rustle of bank notes and chink of coin will eventually tempt the hill-dweller to part with his birthright So it has always been in the world's history—the good things that are ours without price invariably pass from our hands before we come to understand their value. The White River country will shortly be discov ered anew by a class of immigrants better capable of judging its possibil ities—the men who seek modest homes where the "lav of the land" will effectually prevent crowding by too close neighbors, where their cat tle can fatten on free range, where the wealth of forest and mine awaits development by intelligent workers, and where the game and fish offer en joyable recreation to all who have leisure and inclination for sport. DIAMONDS IN UNITED STATES Stones to the Value of $300 Found in Single Year. Never in the history of the United States has there been such a demand for diamonds as there was in 1905. Large quantities were imported, but the country produced none. In 1903 it produced diamonds to the value of $50, in 1901 it had an output worth $100, in 1900 its production was valued at $150, and in 1899 the coun try boasted native diamonds to the value of $300. Diamonds have been discovered in the United States in four different re gions, but their actual place of ori gin is unknown. All have been found in loose and superficial deposits, and all accidentally. It is not at all improbable, how ever, that some day the original sources of this queen of gems may be discovered. The high price of dia monds has made the recent search for these precious stones in the United States and Canada keener than ever before.—Scientific American. BABY COVERED WITH SORES. Would Scratch and Tear the Flesh Un less Hands Were Tied—“Would Have Died But for Cuticura.” “My little son, when about a year and a half old, began to have sores come out on his face. I had a physi cian treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then I called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of the Soap and a box of the Oint ment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since. He is now strong and healthy, and I can sincerely say that only for your most wonderful remedies my precious child would have died from those terrible sores. Mrs. Egbert Sheldon, R, F. D.
