BURTON, HERRICK, ET AL.,
SURE TO BE SQUELCHED
Ry Private Leased Wire.
Washington, Sept. g.—Senator
Charles Dick stopped over ln Wash
ington on his way home from Oyster
Bay, where, with other members of the
naval committees of congress, he re
viewed the great naval pageant Mon
day as the president's guest.
Despite the fact that Mr. Roosevelt
was busily occupied In playing his role
as commander-ln-chlef of the natton'a
naval forces, it seems he found a lit
tle time to talk to the Ohio senator
about the Republican row In the Buck
eye state. He evinced considerable In
terest and asked Mr. Dick what the
outcome of the controversy would be.
He confidently predicted that the
Republicans, headed by Representative
T. E. Burton, former Governor Her
rick, Harry M. Daughter)- and others
would be effectually squelched at the
Dayton convention next week.

BUT, HONEST, THIS MESSENGER BOY

Postal messenger boy No. 999 was
arretted Sunday. The policeman said
he had been exceeding the speed limit.
Honest he did.
Now what dd you think of that?
Is every tradition to which Ameri

laughed to scorn? Shall, every para-
grapher In the weekly press be held
up to ridicule from 'Frisco to Cape
Cod?

He had achieved notoriety * at one
bound and ho paid his small fine with
a smile of satisfaction.
Messenger No. 999 has not explained
his departure from the unwritten laws
of messenger boys. The officials of the
telegraph company are reticent on the
subject but It Is evident that they feel
their disgrace.
Around the clubs and place* where
people most do congregate many theo
ries have been advanced.
"Perhaps he was on his way to the
ball game," said one.
“Maybe he had not been working
long,” said another.
"I’ll bet the smokes he was off duty
at the time," said the third and best
guesser.
That may explain It. It may be

New York, Sept. t.—The prepara

And now a messenger boy Is accused
of moving too fast. What Is this world
coming to?
Judge Broyles refused to believe It.
"What's the charge against this mes
senger tioy?" he asked the policeman.
"Exceeding the speed limit. Judge,
