Mayor Gaynor la grow ing steadily In the good will of the people of the city, who are beginning to realize that at last they have a chii'f executive who Is really doing what he said he Intended to do before he was elected. He la going ahead quietly but thor oughly in the work of putting the city on a business basis, incidentally sur prising the old time politicians, who had the same idea the old Georgia darkey hud who declared, "platforms win made ter git In on, not to stand on." Mr. Gaynor Is. a man of many pe culiarities, one of these is that he hate fawning and circumlocution. A good story was told the other day Il lustrating this point. A young man came to the mayor and asked for an appointment as a deputy commissioner. "On what ground do you ask the appointment?" asked the mayor. "Well." was the reply, "you stated the other day you wanted good men for office, and I am a good man." The mayor sized up the visitor a minute and then said. "Young man, you come In and see me next week." Inquiry showed the applicant was a good man, and he got the place he wanted, and so far has made good. It in this sort of thing which Is both amazing and painful to the politician who has become accustomed to see of fices parceled out only by the district leaders.

While Russia has decided to build her Dreadnoughts at home it is not' impossible that an American will have much to do with their construction. It is said that the naval authortles are seriously considering making a proposition to Lewis Nixon to superintend the build ing of the battleships. Whether a proposition has been submitted to Mr. Nixon or not the report was unable to say, but that such a proposition will be If it has not already been made is altogether probable. Mr. Nixon has done work for the Russian navy department and did It so well that he stands very high In the estimation of official Russia. The naval program Includes the building of the following ships: Twelve Dreadnoughts, costing $200,000,000; 20 torpedo boat destroyers of 1000 tons, capable of steaming 35 knots and costing over $10,000,000; 40 transports, costing utmost $50,000,000; gunboats and submarines, number not given. istw"9 U ft run for COUGHS M1D GOLDS CURES '"THROAT"8 LUNG DISEASES i ry u v xzsy v i SAVED HER SON'S UFE My son Rex was taken down a year ago withlung trouble.

STOCK LOSSES SAID TO BE ONLY NOMINAL Prlnevllle, Ore. Central Oregon, the stock growing section of the state, Is enjoying much better weather than Is customary at this season. Cattle and horses have been turned on the ranges and many bands of sheep have been taken to the "desert" where the new grass Is best.

"Is a belief In and po litical support of William J. Bryan as a candidate for the presidency of the United States an indication of a feeble mind or Insanity?" This Is the question that either the Danish courts or the American courts will have to decide In a will case In Schleswlg, according to letters receiv ed In Chicago by friends of the par ties Interested. About forty years ago two brothers Jens and Karl Joergensen, emigrated from Schleswlg to this country. They became miners. Jens, the eldest, seems to have been the leader. Karl, the younger brother, was of socialist ic tendencies and did little work. A few years ago the two brothers drift ed to Alaska, and then Jens struck pay rock," selling his claim for $200,- 000. Jens had become an American citi zen, taking an interest in politics, and became a staunch adherent of Wil liam J. Bryan. Karl termed his broth er's political work as "rank lunacy.' In 1907 Jens decided to make a visit to Denmark. His brother accompa nled him. In December he was taken sick and died. Among the papers left by Jens was found a will made In Denver, Colo., and dated In 1907, by which he left the bulk of his fortune to promulgate the Ideas of democracy according to Bryan, giving only an annuity of $300 to his brother Karl. Karl has suc ceeded in inducing other relatives to contest the will. He asserts that In America followers of William J. Bry. an are considered cranks and lunatics.

In order to win a wa ger of a dinner to be given to herself and 10 friends at a hotel, Mrs. Henry E. Wilson, a young society matron of Atlantic City, took a swim In the icy waters of the ocean. While thousands of Lenten visitors stood shivering In their furs and heavy clothing, Mrs. Wilson, attired in the regulation summer bathing costume, ran lightly down the beach and plunged Into the surf. As she dis appeared from sight, invalids out for an airing drew themselves more se curely Into the shelter of the rolling chairs. Those who expected that the swimmer would be satisfied with merely a dip In old Neptune were sur prised when Mrs. Wilson struck out with a strong overhand stroke, until soon nothing but her chestnut hair could be seen bobbing up and down among the breakers. After fully half an hour she returned to shore. SEARCH FOR MOTHER ENDS AT POOR nOCSE Marshalltown, Ohio.
