whisperIngs Around Ia Capitol.


Says the Carson Free Lance: II Is be-
lieved that Governor Adams will be a can
didste to succeed himself and that he will
make it very lively for Hook Mason or any
other Democrat to compete before the
convention for the honor Of a nomination.
He has q larger personal following than
any man in his party, and he knows more
about pulling wires and running primaries
on the Crawford plan. or any other plan,
than any of his competitors. Adams has
ado some enemies by his official acts. but
politically he ia neither dead nor down.
If Lieutenant Governor Laughton could
see a ghost of a chance he would like to go
to Congress, but will not be a candidate
for reelection. Judge Belknap is sure to
be q candidate for q denomination and will
have the support OF the Adams-Fair wing
OF the Democracy. The candidacy of
Dormer, TuAy, Harlow and Bicknell is
pretty we'll established in the minds of
their associates. Davenport, Preble,
Young and possibly Hallock, do not aspire
for the respective positions held by them
While these prophecies must not be re-
garded as infaliible, they are based upon
the whisperings heard around the Capitol.

Arrested on q Serious Charge.

SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
VIRGINIA, New, Dec. 91.-A Frenchman
known as Hyppolite was arrested last even
ing, charged with an attempt at rape on
the person of s11-year-old girl. She says
her mother told her to go out and find her
father, and a short distance south of the
International Hotel the man met her and
asked where she was going. She told him
she was looking for her father. He told
her to go with him, as he knew her father
and would take her to him. She went up
into q brick lodging-house near the corner
OF @ and Unit streets, D ,xt to Frederick's
house. He took her to his room. lie
threw her on the bed, and she was &c
frightened she screamed and he. got ont OF
the room. The landlady came and heard
the chil6's story, and the man having gone
to the water closet was kept there until
Officer Hardy arrived. together with Off
Ger Bartlett. They arrested the man and
lodged him In the county Jail. He says he
took the girl to his room merely that she
might wait there till he found her father,
and intended no harm whatever. There
are other stories and surmises In this mat
ter, but the truth is liable to como out at
the examination before Justice Kehoe,
when things may appear in a different
light.

MILLS SPEAKS.

WASHINGTON, ID. G., December O.
Col. Mills says frankly that it was
prohibition, and not protection. which
reduced his majority from 1900 to
5000. He says:

dorse local option and be Democrat
/ fought prohibition OH the stump in
all its forms, and | was the only can
didate for congress who did.
REAGAN's CANDIDACY.
Judge Reagan doesn't want to talk
about the senatorial canvass: says he
has heard more of it here than while
he was in Texas. He is certainly a
candidate, and, having planted the
seeds for "talk" before leaving Texas,
he is now cultivating it by giving his
entire effort to his interstate COM
mercc measure.

He was a native of Pennsylvania, and
SO years old at his death. His career
has been brilliant, entering the rail

partmcnt of his work, in every sphere
in which he moved. there was finish
about all his acts that marked him as
a great and good man. No railroad
man was so universally beloved as Mr..
Noble among the railroad men, and in

Glass Railroad Rails.

Berlin papers copy from the Germa-
mia IN account Of an important dis
covery in glass manufacture made by
Friedrich Siemens of Dresden. He
has succeeded in casting glass in the
same way AS metal is cast and obtain
ing al article corresponding to cast
metal. This east glass is hard, not
dearer in production than cast iron. and
has the advantage Of transparency. SO
that all flaws can be detected before
il is applied to practical use. 1t will
be much less exposed to injury from
atmospheric influences than iron. The
process of production is not difficult,
the chief feature being rapid cooling.
The hardness and resisting power Of
this east glass are SD great that eXper-
iments are being just now carried out
ut the Siemens Glass Foundry at Ores
den with the purpose Of ascertaining
whether the material could be employ
ed for rails on railways.-London
Times.
