My first is Henry. My second is,
Oassaway. My third is Davis. My
whole is the democratic candidate for
vice president. Take away my first
and third and yon will have what the
political spellbinders will do from now
on until election.
By Way of Explanation.
A news dispatch from Sparta, Tenn.,
tells of the discovery of graves in
White county, that state, containing
skeletons of adult persons who could
not have been more than two feet
high. The graves were lined with
marble. Small folks. Large yarn.
President Roosevelt’s home town of
Oyster Bay, N. Y., is one of the
wealthiest in the Empire State. The
tax assesors have jurft completed their
rolls. The total assessment Is over
111,000,000. The president’ spersonal
assessment is for 150,000. The tax-
payers of the town are summer resi-
dents, who are among the millionaire
citizens of New York City.
To the Readers of the Tribune:
The deliveiy of the Tribune at
this unusual hour is due 16 an un-
fortunate mishap, by which all
four forms of the paper were “pied”
while being put on the press. To
get the paper in the best shape
possible for issuing under the cir-
cumstances, has necessitated many
hours of work, and we ask the in-
dulgence of our patrons in our
dilemma. The next issue of the
Tribune will appear at the usual
hour of publication.
“WHO HA8 THI8 BOOK?"
«?•
The boll weevil continues to move
on Its way into the heart of the Texas
ecfcton region, defying obstruction. Ac-
cording to the latest report of the bu-
reau of entomology, the line of the
pest’s march has advanced twenty
miles north of the position it held at
the date of the previous report one
month ago. This takes It to the lati-
tude of Dallas and Arlington counties,
and near the Denton county border.
The weevil damage ig now general
from Hill and Navarro counties to the
gulf.
A new oil town to be called Evan-
geline is about to be Incorporated in
the Jennings oil field. The field is
in the center of a little settlement of
Acadians who resided in the open prai-
rie before the cities of Jennings and
Crowley were founded, and the settle-
ment was always known as Evange-
line. The townsfte company has de-
cided to let the old name stand.
Br-
in spite of the fact that thousands
of families from all the countries of
Europe are among the emigrants that
arrive at New York every week seek-
lag work, that city Is 40,000 shy in Its
demands for domestic servant* Fac-
tories, tailor shops and the like ab-
sorb most of the female help. Good
places and good wages are at the call
of women who would be content to go
lato domestic service in the metropo-
lis.

To borrow an umbrella and never
think of returning it is a trait of hu-
man nature that is proverbial. And it
Is the most mysterious thing about It,
too. by the way, that no owner of an
umbrella that some one has borrowed
ever sees that umbrella in the posses
slon of the borrower. He may meet
him during a rain, carrying an umbrel-
la, at that, but it will never be that
particular borrowed one. The bor-
rowed umbrella has a way of hiding
itself that beats all the art of the
young quail in the line of disappear-
ing.
But this Is neither here nor there.
There may be sufficient reason in the
nlnd of the borrower for keeping pos
session of the other fellow’s umbrella,
but why should he regard a borrowed
book as something that loses Its right-
ful ownership the moment ft leaves
that custody?
We are moved to this subject oy
the case of Dr. T. J. Horne, who weeks
ago kindly loaned to somebody from
his library a much-prized book, which
has not been returned. That simple
{act Is not to be wondered at, but for
a fortnight past there has appeared
conspicuously in the Tribune an ad-
vertisement calling attention to this
particular case, inquiring “Who has
this book?” and politely requesting
that person to return it to its owner.
To argue that the borrower of the book
has not seen that advertisement
would be to argue against every prob-
ability. Everybody reads the Tribune,
and that it should be read day by day
In such an instance he needs only to
be reminded of It to make return of
the property, with due apology for his
carelessness. But the person who has
in his hand$ such a book, knowing well
who the owner Is, and who not only
does not return it voluntarily when
through with It, but persists in re-
taining It when persistently, although
politely, reminded of his remlssness
by advertisement In the public press
—what shall we think of such a one
as that?
Enough said. e'
“Who has this book?” Ahd not only
this book, but all the other Dooks that
lie In guilty ambush in the hands c-f
borrowers here, there and everywhere
about the city? Hunt ’em up and take
’em back where they belong.

A book isn’t an umbrella. A’ man
may have a volume that is rare of
print* and consequently difficult and
perhaps impossible to replace. It is
among his most prized possessions. He
may also have an umbrella that he
would Just as leave keep in hla own
possession as to deliver it Into the cus-
tody of another. But if he parts
with his umbrella he can replace It.
There are Just as good umbrellas In

“Recollectlons of a Mosby Guerril-
Ic.” we undtrstand, Is the title of a
new serial which Is to begi| in tbe
September number of Munsey’s Mag-
azine, ahd promises to be the most In-
tel erting and stirring contribution to
tbe history of the civil war that bss
yet betn handed down to us from that
eventful period. The author, John W,
Munson, was a member of Movby’s
famous partisan rangers.
Mr. Munson takes up his story from
the day he began hla tramp from
Richmond 120 miles to the Blue Ridge
mountains, where he joined the Mosby
band at the residence of Mr. Black-
well. near Markham station, in 1863,
and carries It to the close of the war,
describing all of the sensational fights,
raids, hand to band conflicts and en-
gagements that befell the little band,
which at no time numbered over 300
men. - Heretofore unpublished pic-
