I Dew-cool and rainbow kissed,
It twines nnd curls, n silver Btrennv
Through valleys hung with mist.
Down past enchanted woods to where
Komanco wnlks ever young.
Where kings ride forth to take the ulr
On steeds with velvet hung
Where secret stairways tempt the
bold,
Where pirate caves abound,
And many n chest of Spanish gold
May solemnly be found!
Through magic years It twines nnd
creeps
Past towers of peacock blue.
Where still some captured princess
slec-ps
And dreams come always true.
Then gleam by gleam the light goes

The Son does not aL'lee with the
Plain Dealer on the She.t (inn idea in
the South. Thi-re are- more conser
vative ideas which mliiit be hrnimht
In play which would accomplish a
greater good.
Mr. Thiuiitis Marks, chairman of the
city central committee, who steered
the Republican ticked to a triumphant
microns has be-on highly commended.
The- office of chairman is an import
ant one, tho duties are manifold nnd
the position Is a trying one. When,
In face of all those difficulties, his
efforts are crowneel with success, he
is entitled to honor anil credit.

create a vacancy In the Vpper House.
There has been some talk of giving
tho place thus mad' vacant, to Mr.

Not long ago It was common, nmong

KANSAS CITY, KAS.
If tho Republican party leadeTs of
Kansas City, Kansas, will take this
panes to make a wise selection for
the mayoralty candidate it is believed
that the people will support the tic
ked and return the Republicans to
power. So far as the joints are con-ce-rned
It would be far better to al-
low them to run wide open than to
have it said that the highest officials
are bribers of the) liquor trust.
Penalties of Riches.
Money is a mere medium of ex
change until you begin to want more
of It than you ne-ed. Thereafter In

penalties of riches. John A. How land.
Why He Was Cheerful.
"No man." said Jerome K. Jerome
"shoulil marry unless he Is by nature
a 'good provider' unless without a
twinge ho can hand forth money right
and left.
"Some men can In n sunny, cheer
ful way. spend $10 or $13 on a dinner
in a fashionable restaurant, while
they become morose, sour nnd fear
ful for the future when they are
obliged to give their wives a dollar or
two for the days meat.
"These men should remain single.
Otherwise they will make such hus
bands nnd fathers us my old friend,
Crust.
"Crust's daughter said one after
noon. In a tone of unutterable sur
prise: " 'Papa went away quiet gay and
cheerful this morning.'
"Mrs Crust made an exclamation of
annoyance.
" 'That reminds me,' she said. 'I
forgot to ask him for any money.' "
Exchange.
THE NEW CONGRESSMAN.
With Joy he views those lofty halls
Whose noble, grand, historic walls
Have sheltered famous men;
And thinks how he'll the nation teach,
Vud soon with some magnetic speech
Awake those walls again.
He knows the folks at home await
His views upon concerns of state
With Ill-concealed restraint;
nut he'll not keep them waiting long,
And when he does burst forth In song,
What pictures he will palntl
He sees himself another Clay!
To seek the thickest of the fray
He earnestly doth yearn;
And If he's good, the lending chaps
Will let him make, some day, perhaps,
A motion to adjourn.

Switzerland's exports of machinery
nnd Implements In 1904 nre valued at
about $9,500,000. Electrical machin
ery nnd machines used for weaving,
knitting nnd embroidery were the
principal items. As this little country
has no iron or coal, but must import
these heavy materials by railroads,
the exportation of machinery speaks
well for its industrial skill.

Although unknown as an Inventor
and almost blind and heavily weighted

The model will run today when an
electric current is applied, as it did
half a century ago, in his shop In

NEGRO MEDICAL PROFESSION
KANSAS CITY.
Few cities In the West offer a
creator nnd more lucrative field for
the Negro physicians than Kansas
City. This fact, however, has become
apparent only recently. Ten or fif
teen years ago the colored people of
Kansas City wore somewhat indiffer
ent toward employing physicians of
their own race. At that time there
were not many Negro physicians in
Kansas City and our people had not
been properly informed as to tho abll
It y and cpiallficatlon of our Medical
fraternity. Tho fact that the Negro
physicians of today are ns well
schooled as are those of the white
race did not occur to our people. The
Negro press took the question In hand
and brought about conflelence and
shortlv afterwards this field was
sought by a number of physicians

Perjury Like a Gentleman.
