If there is any truth in what ex- <lb/>

of jokes is ludicrously <lb/>
mall- a dozen or two the very <lb/>
outside. An early investigator into <lb/>
this momentous question, a certain <lb/>

THE SIBERIAN TUNDRA. <lb/>
To build a railway connecting the <lb/>
Russian settlements in Siberia with <lb/>
Alaska would necessitate laying <lb/>
down about miles of track. <lb/>
The chief obstacle is the Siberian <lb/>
tundra, which a would have <lb/>
to cross before reaching <lb/>
strait. Tundra is a native word <lb/>
the vast expanse of swamp <lb/>
and marshland, interspersed with <lb/>
numberless stagnant lakes, <lb/>
for thousands of miles <lb/>
across the arctic zone in Siberia, <lb/>
n summer time the tundra is like <lb/>
a wet sponge, into which even a <lb/>
man sinks knee deep at every step, <lb/>
and consequently the natives <lb/>
venture any distance from <lb/>
home save by lake or river. From <lb/>
May to October the settlements are <lb/>
Completely isolated by this vast <lb/>
ocean of swamp. It is only in win- <lb/>
when the tundra has been cow- <lb/>
with a layer of hard frozen <lb/>
snow many feet in depth, that those <lb/>
people are able to move from one <lb/>
place to another in a dog or rein- <lb/>
deer sled. The tundra section of <lb/>
the proposed railway line Harry de <lb/>
the explorer, estimate <lb/>
would cost about 8100,000,000, for <lb/>
every wooden cross lie would have <lb/>
to be imported into this treeless <lb/>
count <lb/>

To my friends and fellow citizens <lb/>

An the time for holding <lb/>

to have a word with you. I am <lb/>
again asking at your hands the <lb/>
nomination tie re <lb/>
I have served you <lb/>
twice in this capacity and feel that <lb/>
have gained a knowledge of the <lb/>
work to be done, which will <lb/>
me to serve you better than <lb/>
I have no platform of <lb/>
my own and no pet bobby, but <lb/>
will at all times do my best to car- <lb/>
out your wishes as best can, <lb/>
consistent with the principles of <lb/>
the platform of the Democratic <lb/>
party. I have at all times done my <lb/>
best to serve the people Pitt <lb/>
county whatever place of trust <lb/>
they have placed me, faithfully <lb/>
earnestly and conscientiously, and <lb/>
if at the coming convention, you <lb/>
should again me with the <lb/>
nomination, I promise to use my <lb/>
best efforts to serve you as I have <lb/>

STORY 01- <lb/>
have a mother eat, six or eight <lb/>
yearn of age, a very smart and faith- <lb/>
cat, but never before have I <lb/>
seen or heard of a cat acting in the <lb/>
manner as she did. <lb/>
One morning recently as arose, <lb/>
and my way to build a fire in the <lb/>
stove, the cat met me in the door. <lb/>
She began mewing and rubbing <lb/>
against me. did not pay <lb/>
attention to her. but noticed that <lb/>
she would run off a short distance <lb/>
and come <lb/>
When my wife got up the eat <lb/>
her sumo way, and <lb/>
to fee the cat, but she would <lb/>
not pay any attention to tho food. <lb/>
When my younger daughter came <lb/>
out the cat did her the way <lb/>
and she took a notion to follow e <lb/>
cat. folk wed tho cat about a <lb/>
hundred and fifty yards from the <lb/>
house to a grave yard. There <lb/>
went all around the grave yard but <lb/>
could not find anything, so she <lb/>
came back to the house, but the cat <lb/>
would not leave the grave <lb/>
yard. She would call and call Hie <lb/>
cat but could not get her from lite <lb/>
grave yard. <lb/>
A i -hurt lime elder <lb/>
daughter concluded would go <lb/>
and see if -he could find anything. <lb/>
She mild not find anything, so <lb/>
sic went back to tho but the <lb/>
cat would not leave the grave <lb/>
yard. <lb/>
My younger daughter did not seem <lb/>
to be satisfied, so went again, <lb/>
and as it happened went to the con <lb/>
where the cat a as, and stooped <lb/>

Charged with the commission of a of not simply a life time, hut <lb/>

placed on trial he may challenge <lb/>

experience in practice of law <lb/>
and five years work on the <lb/>
bench it is to my mind I hat <lb/>
statute to he changed so <lb/>
that in trial of the offenses of <lb/>
arson, rape, murder and <lb/>

rich, sonorous sentences and phrases <lb/>
are in profane and <lb/>
religions literature of the English- <lb/>
speaking people. They live in the <lb/>
hymns, in the prayers, in the <lb/>

thoughts and memories of millions <lb/>

laymen alike are devoted to the old. <lb/>
Sentiment plays Important art <lb/>

it looks as if it will be a long, <lb/>

new, for say old is <lb/>
And this, too, in the face of the fact <lb/>
that the authorized version is full of <lb/>
inaccuracies, abounds in words which <lb/>
have become obsolete and whose <lb/>
meaning only the well educated <lb/>
know. Scholars and critics and <lb/>
teachers and leaders in religious <lb/>
thought continue to point out the <lb/>
unwisdom of not discarding the old <lb/>
Bible and accepting the new, but <lb/>
their words are unheeded, and their <lb/>
exhortation disregarded. It is true <lb/>
that increasing numbers use the re- <lb/>
vised versions for references and <lb/>
study and comparison, but the old <lb/>
some how stands its ground and re- <lb/>

We are informed John <lb/>
Keener and Traver started <lb/>
to got some brandy <lb/>
on the way. The little seven-year- <lb/>
old boy of Mr Lawing died from <lb/>
the effects of what he drank. <lb/>
countrymen, think of a child <lb/>
seven years old going into eternity <lb/>
a victim of strong drink. <lb/>
We cannot save some men <lb/>
are set in their are salves <lb/>
of strong drink, but in name <lb/>
of humanity, let every man who is <lb/>
a man raise his voice and use his <lb/>
vote and his influence to save the <lb/>
mothers and children from the <lb/>
curse of strong <lb/>

The extent of the <lb/>

Yet in 1905 there was <lb/>
more than a billion and a hall of <lb/>
capital invested in manufacturing, <lb/>
producing goods worth two <lb/>
lions. The increase in capital in- <lb/>

of the country increase in <lb/>
capital in the five ended <lb/>
