Washington, Sept. 5.—Senator Charles Dick stopped over in Wash ington on his way home from Oyster Bay, where, with other members of the naval committees of congress, he re viewed the great nival pageant Mon- ” iy as the president's guest. Despite the fact that Mr. Roosevelt was busily occupied in playing his role as commander-ln-chlef of the nation's naval forces, it seems he found a lit' tie 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. Daughtery and others would be effectually squelched at the Dayton convention next week. HOW ABOUT IT ?

A W, CUT OUT YER KIDDIN’ BUT, HONEST, THIS MESSENGER BOY WAS PINCHED FOR GOING TOO FAST Postal messenger boy No. 999 was arrested Sunday. The policeman said he had been exceeding the speed limit. Honest he did. Now what do you think of that? Is every tradition to which Ameri cana have clung for generations to be Isughed to scorn? Shall every para- grapher In the weekly pres# be held up to ridicule from 'Frisco to Cape Cod? An Englishman registered at the Piedmont last week and though nine bell boys and three reporters shadowed him for an hour he didn't say "My word" or "By Jove" even once. A stranger Inquired the way Washington and Mitchell streets on August 2# and a policeman told him at the first guess. There Is evidence to prpve It. There’s another instance. There’s a minstrel show at the Bijou this week and the end man forgot to ask the middle man why a hen crosses the road. At least he did In the first performance. 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 boy?" he asked the policeman. "Exceeding the speed limit, judge, your honor," said the policeman, bra- xenly. The court frowned at the officer while Clerk Preston rapped for order. "You will remember, sir, that you are Ih court," said Judge Broyles. "This Is no place for Joking. The policeman stuck to his story. Even the messenger, openly charged with his crime, admitted that he wbs riding fast. He seemed actually proud of It. Perhaps he was emulating those motorists who exhibit their receipts for fines as an athlete shows his med als. At least bis offense was unusual. He had achieved notoriety at one bound and he paid his small fine with a smile of satisfaction. Messenger No. 929 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 places where people most do congregate many theo ries havo been advanced. "Perhaps he was on hla 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 possible for a messenger boy to hurry when his day’s work Is over and he Is on his .way to supper, but no well- informed cltlsen will believe that any messenger hurried with a message. There are some things which the ordi nary mind cannot grasp. Sam Jones Tabernacle Meetings, Carters- ville. Ga.
