AN EFFORT TO DEFEAT DANIEL
For Reelection TO The United States
Senate Not Likely to Succeed.
BEVERLY, NOT FITz LEE, HIS OPPONENT.
Another of the Four marked Men NAV
Whip on His Enemies-The Farmers
Alliance Part in the Move.

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. August 1s.-A Norfolk
special to the Star says: For some time it has
been known that conspiracy was being
Matched among a certain element in this State
to defeat the reelection of Hon. John w.
Daniel to the United States Senate. The
next Legislature will elect his successor. bis
term expires March 4, 1898 and the plan which
has been very quietly working is TO get as
many anti-Daniel men nominated by the
Democrats as possible for the Legislature.
1t has been stated that the opposition TO
Senator Daniel originated with and was being
worked up by the Farmers Alliance that they
wished 10 supplant him by electing one OF
their own members, as was done in Kansas
and South Carolina, and as was attempted IN
North Carolina
II is little curious that the four marked
men" in these four States should be four of
the most widely known and most popular Of
senators-lngalls, Hampton, Vance and
Daniel
But although the Alliance succeeded in
retiring those powerful men, Ingalls, and
Hampton. they found Vance and Daniel too
much for them, and the weight Of opinion IS
emphstlcally TO the effect that Daniel will
whip eff his enemies in this State.
BEVERLY, NOT FITz. LIE.
Colonel Beverly is the gentleman who is
most prominently named as the would-be
successor of Senator Daniel.
III has been stated by some of the news
papers that General Fitzhugh Lee might en-
ter the lists against Major Daniel, but this is
not probable. because the two gentlemen are
strong personal friends There is no doubt
that General Lee has decided to re-enter
politics, but it is believed he will seek re-elec-
ton to the governorship and not senatorial
honors. He can get the former office without
any trouble if he wants it.

A Very Useful Book.

"Health and Pleasure on Americas
Greatest Railroad" is the title of q
charming little volume issued by the
Passenger Department of the New
York Central & Hudson River railroad
this year, with new and attractive fea-
lures added to the publication of
former years. The book is a Summer
book" decidedly, and is enough in it
self to tempt the tourist out into the
leafy Businesses of the forests, or to
the cool, rocky glens of the mountains.
The frontispiece Is fine view of
that noble structure, the Washington
Bridge across the Harlem, but that is
merely hint of the beauties that fol-
low. No one who glances over the
book can fail to get a comprehensive
idea of the wealth of scenery through
which the road passes, not to mention
the valuable information that is syste-
matically arranged throughout the
book in regard to the hotels and board
ing houses, the prices of board, the
fares, the distances, the possible excur-
sion, a1d, in q word, all that that
usually inquiring person, the Summer
tourist, can possibly think of desiring
to learn.
Copies of the book will be forwarded
free to any address upon receipt of ten

LIGHT TO TELL THE TIME.
One May Read tho Hour in Pitch-Dark
Room.

Some English electricians have in
troduced an electric light apparatus
for illuminating the face of a watch at
any hour of the night. 1t is made of
a small divided case, with a minute
incandescent lamp aud reflector fixed
in the rim and made hollow so that
the watch may be laid inside this case,
and upon pressing small stud the
face of the watch is brilliantly illumi-
mated.
The electricity is supplied by a
small dry battery, which may be at
tachcd to any part of bed or in any
part of room, and connected with the
watch-case by "A flexible cord.
Properly made, there is no reason
why the watch-case could not be car
ried in ones vest pocket and the bat
terry in another pocket, the watch
chain serving as connecting cord.

But that was not true 1t was a

little Louisa blossomed out in pink.
