CELEBRITIES
Fred Kohler. Golden Rulo
Police Chief.
Fred Kohler, chief of police ot Cleve
land until recently suspended under
charges, got the title "best chief of po
lice in America" from Theodore Roose
velt, who saw and admired the officer
while visiting Cleveland, lie also
bears the sobriquet "Golden Kulo." and
that came about In another way. lie
conceived the Idea that If trifling of
fenders agalr' .,-isabllc order were
warned rathe' rian arrested and lodged
In the station bouse the result would
be beneficial. The order was promul
gated, and Its results are said to verify
Chief Kohler's Idea. The flrst three
months of the year 1007. the last year
of the old system, the police bad made
7,120 arrests. In a similar period of
time this year they had dwindled to
1,283, a great reduction.
"Golden Rule" Kohler is about forty
two and was a core worker In his
youth before he got on the police force.
He was appointed a patrolman In 1SS9
and walked post six years. Then he
was made sergeant and shortly after
lieutenant. Finally ho became chief
of detectives and under the regime of
Tom Johnson was made chief of the
force. During bis term of office Koh
ler has managed to make a large num
ber of personal enemies. .It Is said
that there are many good citizens who
are convinced that Kohler's method of
managing the department Is not good;
that the "Golden Rule" system Is pro
ductive of evil.
Breckenridge's Ambition.
John F. Breckenridge, the black
smith who announces himself a candi
date for United States senator from
Missouri, in his early days followed
"the trail" as n cowboy. Ho has a
horseshoeing establishment at the
stockyards In South St. Joseph, Mo.
As a farrier in Jerseyvllle, 111., sir
years ago he made a strong race for
congress as a Socialist and Labor can
didate. Mr. Hreckenridge says he will
make a strong campaign for United
States senator, visiting every county
in the state.
Mrs. Morso Wins Sympathy.
Mrs. Charles V. Morse, wife of the
convicted New York banker who I
serving a fifteen year sentence at At
lanta for violation of the banking laws,
has won many friends by her cour
ageous battle to have her husband par
doned by the "president. Since Morse
was sent to prison last January his
wife has been Indefatigable In her ef
forts to secure his freedom.
As soon as her husband was behind
the bars she began her campaign. A
A

petition to tho president was drawn
up, and that has been circulated In
nearly every city and hamlet
Recently Mrs. Morse visited the na
tional capital and added several hun
dred names to tho pctitipn. Among
the signers was tho president's sou,
and more than 100 congressmen ap
pended their names.
Mrs. Morso is now about forty years
of age, of dignified manner, well form
ed and of good carriage. Iler hair of
Iron gray, combed back from a high,
straight forehead, frames a faco kind
ly, yet strong. The Morses have two
eons, who are pursuing their studies
at Yale.
Hairs Upon Horses' Lips. I
The fine halm about the iinuth of :
the horso are organ ot tun li of .- I
treme dcllcni-y They serve tn n itt'
tain extent tile sauic iurioi w ,nir 1
dugcr ends, thu whiskers of the cat or ;
the trunk of the elephant. Sensitive
pess Is due to specially developed end
ings of nerves In the skin, which are
continually sending messages to tho
brain. The lip hairs of the horse flrst
receive thu stimulus, which Is cotumu-
nlcatcd to the end organs and so pass- ,
cs on to the brain. They come Into
play when tho horse samples a new
article of food. Ho flrst smells It and,
having so far satisfied himself, touch
es it delicately with those sensitive
hairs. The upper Hp moves softly In
quick sympathy and confirms the opin
ion suggested by tho hairs. Tho
tongue Judges Anally as to the fitness
of the food. When the horse wishes
to drink these hairs ns-nitx him that
tho water is free from foreign matter
on tho surface, for he drinks from tho
surface only. They detect the smallest
particle of dirt and guide him to the
purest place.
Tho Simple Diet.
There Is a certain haulier and broker
doing business not n hundred miles
from tho bunk, s.i.vs n London weekly,
whose health for some time has uot
been all tU.it he could desire. Not
long ago he was complaining to his
brother, when the latter after n care
ful survey of his brother's counte
nance said:
'"Whit you .need, old man, is plain
country food. Come to my place In
the country and we'll soon set you up.
This rich food Is proving too much for
you. Take breakfast, for Instance.
All I have is two cups of coffee, a bit
of steak with a baked potato, some
light muffins or a stack of buttered
toast together with a bit of water
cress or lottucc. What do you have?"
For a moment tho city banker gazed
in hearty admlratldn at his brother.
"A cup of hot water and two slices
of dry toast" he replied soberly. "But.
Jim. If you think a simple diet like
yours will "set me up.' why, I'm per
fectly willing to try It."
The Story of "Hard Hit."
"Mr. Orehardsou. If I thought that
by killing you I could paint a picture
like yours I would stab you to tho
heart." Such was the remark made
by Pellegrini, the famous caricaturist,
to tho Royal academician, Sir William
Orcbardson. when at a private view
he first saw "Hard Hit," tho picture
of the ruined gambler. "It was," said
tho artist, "the greatest compliment
I could have had." Curiously enough,
the model who sat for the ruined
gamester was rather fond of cards
himself. One day the artist noticed
that he looked somewhat depressed.
"What is the matter?" ho asked. "I
was awfully hard hit last night," he
answered. "By Jove." replied the
artist. Jumping up with delight, "I've
got It at last'. 'Hard nit.' of course."
And that Is how the picture got Its
name.
Six Follies of Science.
Tho sir follies of science are the
squaring of the circle, perpetual mo
tion, the philosopher's stone, the elixir
of life, magic and astrology.
In all ages men of undoubted ability
have tolled early and late to unravel
the mysteries supposed to bo connect
ed with these fascinating problems. It
Is not always remembered that such
Intellectual giants as Bacon, Sir Rob
ert Boyle and Sir Isaac Newton sought
tho philosopher's stone. In the study
of astrology Lilly was for a time even
pensioned by parliament.
Most of these "follies" conferred in
direct benefits upon science, for in
seeking one thing their devotees dis
covered many another. Tho craze for
the secret, or unknown, has still its
hold upon men and Is seen in palmis
try and kindred cults.

don't you do as ordinary people and

care to have my finger removed. Chi

Mistake of a Comma.
This Instance of what a mistake of a
comma can produce has bee,n noticed:
"Lord Palinerston then entered upou
his head, a white hat upon his feet,
largo but well polished boots upon his
brow, a dark cloud In his hand, his
faithful walking stick In his eye, a
dark menacing glaro saying nothing."

Quite So.
"There seeras to bo a strango affin
ity between a darky and a chicken."

"A BROOM FOR THE STOMACH."
8o the French Call Parsley Pumpkin
Rich in Phosphorus. 1
The French have a saying that
"parsley Is n broom to sweep the
stomach." Lettuce Is a ncrvo food.
Radishes build tissue and are rich In
phosphorus, also In Iron.
Horseradish contains a higher per
centage of sulphur than all tho other
vcgctablo roots, spinach ranking next
In value. Spinach also contains a
largo proportion of Iron.
A innyonnalso dressing with let
tuce Is especially desirable for thin
people, but for tho over plump French
dressing Is to he recommended. Tho
action of vinegar on tho digestive or
gans, however, Is not to he considered.
Tho ncld of lemon Juice Is preferable.
Whllo apples are a most excellent
fruit for brnln building, which phos
phorus aids In, the humble pumpkin,
desecrated to the uses of pie and Jack
o' lanterns, holds tho prize. Pumpkin
rates 2.79 In phosphorous, while ap
ple is but .1..
When In search for this special ele
ment take up a pumpkin diet. But as
winter squash would stand the same
analysis, It enn be used as a vegeta
ble in many varieties and thus the
needed phosphorus supp'lcd. Cucum
bers rank nest In phosphorus value to
pumpkin, being 2.03. Vcge'arian

How t! s Eye Sres tho Cys.
At a teient n.ectlr.g of he French
Academy cf .;encei, t'.ie apparatus
of Doctor Fortin for revering visible
the inner stiucurc of tbe human eye
was described. A very brilliant mir
ror Is illuminated with a Cooper
Hewitt tube, and the light Is reflected
into the eye, after traversing two
thicknesses of blue glass and being
concentrated by a large lens fixed In
a screen. The observer places his eye
behind the lens at such a distance
Uiat the whole Held appears uniformly
illuminated. What he sees is a re
flection of the interior of his own eye.
The circulation of the blood In the
minute vessels is visible. When a
screen pierced with a pinhole is
passed rapidly to and fro between the
eye and the lens, the structure of the
fovea, the minute spot on the retina
which Is the most sensitive part of
the eye, Is revealed. The apparatus Is
designed to aid investigations by ocu
lists. Typewriting In Arabic.
An American inventor has succeed
ed In making a typewritlng-machlno
which prints Arabic characters. The
principal difficulties to be overcome
were in allowing some letters double
the space of others, and in providing
certain letters with three different
forms, according as they fall at the
beginning, In the middle, or at the
end of a word. The machine con
tains 84 characters, eight of which
automatically supply themselves with
double the space taken by the others.
The machine has been tested by a
committee of examiners at Beirut and
pronounced satisfactory, but some na
tive critics think several of the letters
should have been more elegantly
shaped, for In Arabic writing beauty
is appreciated as much as legibility.
Old Time Bank Sinecures.
In the old days the Bank of England
was paternal In its treatment of its
clerks. One young fellow was distin
guished only for his zeal as a mem
ber of the volunteer corp3 which now
Is defunct His clerkly services were
negligible and neglected, but when it
was brought to the notice of the direc
tors they recommended his martial ar
dor and gave him a nice little sinecure.
Another clerk was reported to them
as a really clever amateur painter.
They saw his pictures. "It is a pity
that such talent shohld be wasted
over ledgers," was the kindly verdict.
So they gave him a room at tho hank
for use as a studio and nppointed him
to tho post of superintending tho burn
ing of canceled bank notes every Fri
day afternoon.

Squaring the Circle.
The origin of the problem squaring
the circle Is almost lost In tho mists of
antiquity, but there is u record of an
nttempted quadrature In Egypt 500
years before the exodus of the Jews.
There Is also a claim, according to
Hone, that the problem was solved by
a discovery of Ilipprocates, the geom
etrician of Chios not the physician
GOO B. C. Now, the efforts of Hippoc
rates were devoted toward converting
a circle into a crescent, because he had
found that tho area of a figure pro
duced by drawing two perpendicular
radii In a circle is exactly equal to tho
triangle formed by the line of Junc
tion. This is the famous theorem of
the "luues of Hippocrates" aud is, like
glauber's salts out of the philosopher's
stone, an example of the useful results
which sometimes follow a search for
the unattainable.
Power of Imagination.
"The Imagination is wonderful," said
a college professor. "I know a Chi
cago man who went last summer to
Asbury Park. He In a quaint way
proved my point He didn't reach As
bury Park till 10 o'clock at night, and.
very tired, he turned in at once. As he
settled his head comfortably on the
pillow he said to his wife:
"'Listen to tho thunder and hiss of
tho surges, Mwln. 1 haven't heard
that glorious sound for forty years.
No more Insomnia now!'
"And, Indeed, for the first time in
three months the man slept like a log.
But when he awoke In the morning ho
found that the uproar which had lulled
him to sleep was the noise of a garage
In tho rear of tho hotel. Tho sea was
over a mile away." Detroit Free
Piess.
