Fishes Survived Drought.
A curious drought survival by fishes
Is reported from France. The ditch
or moat of Monaco, completely dried
up last summer, although usually a
canal three miles long and fifty feet
vide, with five feet of water. All carp
tench, perch, and pike disappeared,
leaving dry mud. A recent sudden
rainfall however supplied a little wa-
ter, and the fishes were actually seen
rising—as lively as ever—from the
mud In which they had buried them-
selves.

Kansas Executive a Guest at Luncheon
at Oyster Bay—T. \R. and Pros-
perity—Good Times Will Come
Again With Teddy, Vows
W. Roscoe.
New York, Jan. 29.—Theodore
Roosevelt is not a candidate for the
presidency, but nevertheless will be
nominated and elected, according to
a statement issued by Walter R.
Stubbs, governor of Kansas, who
lunched with the former president at
Oyster Bay. Governor Stubbs is the
second governor within twenty-four
hours to say that he is going back
home to work for Roosevelt.
"There is no doubt whatever that
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt will be
nominated by the Republican conven-
tion in Chicago and elected the next
president of the United States," reads
Governor Stubbs's statement. "I say
this, knowing^from his personal state-
ments to me, repeated during a per-
sonal conversation today, that he is
not a candidate and will not be a can-
didate for the nomination. 1 am fully
convinced he means exactly what he
says and that he honestly and sincere-
ly feels that he personally has nothing
to gain by another term as president.
"But Colonel Roosevelt never has
said to me nor to any other living hu-
man being to my knowledge, that he
would refuse the nomination if it came
to him as the result of a genuine de-
mand on the part of the American peo-
ple.
"There is such a demand at this
time. All the information I have been
able to gather from all parts of the
country indicates that that demand
will persist and grow and force the
convention to offer him the nomina-
tion. His patriotic spirit, his courage
and his keen sense of the duties and
obligations of a citizen will forbid him
to set his back against a task whicn
the people demand he perform.
"There is a vast difference between
a man stating that he is not a candi-
date for, and does not want office, and
a statement that he would reluse to
accept that office when the public wel-
fare was at stake ana there was a
widespread general demand for him to
.serve his country.
"Coolnel Roosevelt was seven years
president of the United States. Dur-
ing that time reforms of vital import-
ance to. the people were inaugurated.
There was general prosperity through-
out the country. The people realize
what they owe to him, know that he is
for their interests as a whole and ba-
lieve in him."
Judge Albert D. Nortoni of St. Louis,
who was present at the luncheon, also
Issued a statement tonight in which he
said, speaking only for himself, that he
was confident Colonel Roosevelt can-
not, and will not refuse the nomina-
tion.

GRAND TO LIVE
And the Last Laugh Is Always the Beit
"Six months ago I would have laugh-
ed at the idea that there could be any-
thing better for a table beverage thao
coffee," writes an Ohio woman, "now I
laugh to know there is.
"Since childhood I drank coffee freo-
ly as did the other members of the fam-
ily. The result was puny, sickly
girl; and as I grew into womanhood 1
did not gain in health, but was af-
flicted with heart trouble, a weak ai.d
disordered stomach, wrecked nerves
and a general breaking down till last
winter, at the age of 38, I seemed <o
be on the verge of consumption.
"My friends greeted me with "H'-w
bad you look! What a terrible colo !'
and this was not very comforting.
"The doctors and patent medicines
did me absolutely no good. 1 was thor-
oughly discouraged.
"Then I gave up coffee and com-
menced Postum. At first I didn't like
It. but after a few trials and following
the directions exactly, It was grand.
It was refreshing and satisfying. In
a couple of weeks I noticed a great
change.
"I became stronger, my brain grew
clearer. I was not troubled with for*
getfulness as in coffee times, my
power of endurance was more than
doubled.
"The heart trouble and indigestion
disappeared and my nerves became
steady and Btrong.
"I began to take an interest in things
about me. Housework and home-
making became a pleasure. My friends
have marveled at the change and when
they enquire what brought it about
I answer 'Postum, and nothing else in
the world.'" Name given by Postum

Students Fought a Fire.
Winfield, Kan.—North hall, of
Southwestern college, was damaged to
the extent of about $1,000 by fir> tho
other day. The blaze originated trnn?
a defective connection uf a gas stove
in the chapel and when discovsred had
burned a large hole thro'i^h -he chap-
el floor and the ceiling or »ne room be-
low. Prompt action of tin students

CRAVENS FEARS TO
MEET BERT WELTY
Threat Made by Former Pal He Left
to Die Depresses the Outlaw
to Tears.
Guthrie, Okla., Jan 29.—"Is there
no other prison to which they can
send me?" asked Beu Cravens, the
last of the Oklahoma outlaws, of one
of the jail guards, and that question
carried the first impression that the
Ben Cravens of old has finally lost
his nerve or Belt Welty, bis former
pal spoke the truth here recently
when he told Isaac D. Taylor, assist
ant United States attorney, that "Ben
Cravens has a big yellow streak In
him."
Cravens will be sentenced Monday to
Leavenworth for life. He does not
want to be taken where Welty is also
imprisoned for life. His statements
would indicate that he is afraid as
death of his former comrade, whom he
shot on the Otoe prairie after the Red
Rock robbery eleven years ago, and
then abandoned him to die.
Wholesale Raid on Wichita Joints.
Wichita, Kan., Jan. 29.—In the ar-
rest of sixty-one persons on search
and seizure warrants, the Wichita po-
lice department Saturday struck the
hardest blow to liquor interests ever
known in this city. For weeks Mayor
Minick, Chief of Police G. T. Cubbon
and members of the police department
have been quietly working to collect
sufficient evidence to make a sweep-
ing attack upon jointlsts and bootleg-
gers plying their trade in this city
contrary to law.
BURN BUILDING TO KILL GERM
Only Way to Get Rid of Them, and
Occasion Was Made a Good
Object Lesson.
A ramshackle building in Winston-
Salem was recently burned at the re-
quest of the local Anti-Tuberculosis
league, because it was said to be alive
with tuberculosis germs and could not
be properly fumigated.
For days before the building was
burned huge placards announcing the
hour of destruction and giving rear
eons for the burning were hung about
in prominent places. Among other
things the placards said: "Within the
past 16 months two men who sold
fruit, etc., here have died of tuber-
culosis but unconsciously left millions
of tuberculosis germs by careless
spitting. The building is so open that
It cannot be effectively fumigated.
The only practical means of disinfect-
ing is by fire."
At the appointed hour, while mil-
lions of tuberculosis germs were be-
ing burned, 5,000 pamphlets telling
how to prevent consumption, were dis-
tributed to the crowd looking on.

If a Woman Had Done It.
Trust the suffragettes to make capi-
tal out of the merest Indiscretion of
mere man! The following is an ex
ample, taken from one of their publi
cations, the Newsletter, for January:
"A lovely little press item floating
up from Chatham Courthouse. Va..
made the editor laugh and laugh. It
said that a juror sneaked out of the
Jury room while the rest of the jurors
were asleep, and went and milked his
cow. He laid out to get back before
the others waked up, but somebody
saw him and told on him, and the
trial had to begin all over. If a wom-
an juror should do that out In Wash-
ington or Idaho, wouldn't It be a
proof of the incapacity of the sex for
the duties of citizenship?"
"Evil Eye" Basei on Fact.
Most people have heard of the "Evil
Eye," and now we are Informed by
Charles L. Smith, a noted New York
refractionlst, that the superstition
arose because everyone, without know-
ing it, has one eye that is different in
power and activity from the other. He
designates it the "dominant eye," and
according to whether it is the left
or the right children will grow up left-
handed or right-handed. It is sheer
cruelty, and may entail life-long mis-
ery, to force a child to become am-
bidextrous. Such a course may result
in wrecking the nervous system, and
can only be cured by a reversal of the
process so that the "dominant eye"
may regain natural and undisputed
sway. Men who are ambidextrous had
j better keep a strict guard over their
actions lest they should be credited
with the "evil eye."

Indian Sacred Buildings.
The rock-hewn temples of Elephan-
ta, In Bombay harbor, which were
visited recently by the king and
queen numbered six, and four of them
are nearly complete. They date from
the eighth century A. D., or somewhat
later. The Great Cave, 250 feet above
high-water mark, belongs to a class
of sacred buildings very common in
India. It is a Siva temple, fully 130
feet long, the main body being a
square of about 90 feet, hewn from
the rock so as to present three open
sides, and supported by six rows of
stone columns.
