SEYMOUR. Ind. Oct. 14.-The Demo-
cratic managers of this county are badly
demoralized owing to the large number
OF German voters who are breaking away
from the Democratic party. This dlsaffec-
ton commenced last April, when Mr.. Hen
~ Bruning. a popular German business
man OF this city. was defrauded of the
nomination for county auditor. The friends
or Bruning swore vengeance on the ring
which had deprived him Of the nomination.
Since the convention the ring leaders have
used every endeavor by promise of Office
and other means to bring the men back into
line 70 TO the present time they have
failed In their efforts. and il Is now said
that they will insist upon Mr.. Bruning
writing a card, in which he will say that
he was not d~efrauded. and in which he
VIII ask his friends to support the ticket.
Mr. Bruning is not likely TO write such
he had been robbed OF the nomination.

But Not a Friend In Deed, as the Smart
Man Discovered.
There is young man in Louisville
who has always prided himself on be-
ing exceedingly sharp. The other
day the gentleman in question boarded
Portland avenue car and proceeded
to make himself at home by drawing
himself comfortably up in seat and
perusing newspaper. A few min
utes later another middle-aged man
entered the car, looked about him,
and espied the gentleman of brill
fancy. Going up to him the new
conner patted him knowingly on the
back, at the same time saying; "Why,
hello, Fred, don't you know me?'
Fred didn't remember ever having
met the gentleman, but added, as
matter of form, that his face looked
familiar. At this the newcomer did
become familiar. He told the young
man funny stories, and by way of
giving emphasis to his remarks be-
slowed upon the youngling sundry
slaps, punches and pinches. The two
parted the best of friends, but when
Freddie went to bed that night he dis
covered he had been ,;'slapped" to the
extent of $40, touched" for his
watch, and 'pinched" relative to his
diamond stud. Freddie is now a sad
der and q wiser man.

One More Myth Busted.

The story that at the Inauguration
Ct Jefferson the president-elect rode
lone to the capitol and hitched his
own horse to the palings before GO
ing in to be inaugurated was the fig
ment of lying English tailor, travel
ing in this country, who wrote the
story home. He had not even visited
the city of Washington. jefferson
then boarded at Conrad's. less than a
block away, and would hardly have
mounted horse to ride that distance.
Lord Granville, Pitts foreign secre-
tary, who viewed the Inauguration GER
emonies. wrote that 1.-The new presi-
dent came from his lodgings to the
capitol on foot, escorted by n body of
military artillery from the neighbor-
ing states, and accompanied by the
secretaries of the navy and treasury,
and a large number of his friends in
the house of representatives."

PROJECTILES.
They Go Through Steel rs Easily as
Flimsy Cardboard.

Fumsy CardDOard
The futility of piling steel armor
plates on war vessels is being dem
onstrated at the testing grounds
of the Cramps. There, at intervals of
few days, conical steel shells are
fred through four inches of solid steel
armor plate with as apparent ease as
though the plates were the fiimsiest
cardboard. The range is on the
Lewis farm, above Wheatsheaf lane,
along the Delaware river. The shells,
which are three inches in diameter
and ten inches long, are forged from
the finest hardened steel and fitted by
the Cramps for use in the United
States army and navy, and it is to test
the quality of the steel in different
lots that these experiments are being
conducted.
A heavy abutment of railroad ties
has been erected as fender to hold a
bank of earth, and in the front of that
is placed heavy oak plank box five
feet square and ten feet long, which
is filed with sand.
Against another fender in front Of
this box is set up one of the armor
plates such as are used on the armored
cruisers and battle ships now being
built. One hundred feet distant from
the plate is the firing house--a plank
building about thirty feet long by
ten feet wide, and double lined to
deaden sound. Two three-inch rapid
firing Driggs-Schroeder guns are used
in the tests. When everything is
ready for firing lanyard is passed
out the back of the building and
through an aperture in pile of heavy
spruce joist, the gun having previously
been sighted.
When the gun is fred the wall Of
steel is pierced by the projectile, leav-
ing only a fringe around the hole
where the shot passed out on the OPP
posite side. 1t is then sought for in
the sand in the box, and examined
closely as to condition. Of course the
shell is not charged, or it would ex-
plode and blow up the box and all

Carleton's Old Ballad Re-Enacted In Q
Pennsylvania Home.

Pennsylvania Home.
Fifty years ago Peter Sharbaugh
and Annie Noel were married. The
families of both were among the
pioneer settlers of Cambria county,
Pennsylvania, and their names have
been honorably connected with many
of the important developments of its
history during the present century.
Soon after their marriage the young
couple settled on farm near Carroll
ton. They were happy, Industrious,
thrifty and amassed a handsome for
tune.
A few days ago in accordance with
their own fixed purpose, strengthened
by the advice of friends and relatives,
they separated to live the rest of their
lives apart. To his wife Mr. Shar-
the old homestead, where they have
lived fifty years together, and where
their children grew to manhood and
womanhood. For himself the old gen.
tleman took a sufficient sum Of ready
money to maintain him in plain COM
fort during the rest of his life.
The parting scenes, in view of all
the circumstances, were intensely
dramatic. Sharbaugh is II years old,
and the wife is 20. His traps" had
been removed from the old home, and
his grip, packed with the immediate
necessaries of homeless man, satibe-
hind him while the final papers were
drawn up and signed in the presence
of friends and children. Then the
old man, without home in the twi-
light of his life, quietly took up his
gripsack and crossed the old home
threshold for the last time. Where he
went nobody seems to know. The
children of Mr.. and Mrs. Sharbaugh
are among the most prominent people
in Cambria county, the sons being
wealthy business men.

than three bishops in succession died

sionaries who went out four died
within six months; in the next year
six volunteers were accepted, and of
these two died within six months of

three more went forth. of whom two

Not Guilty OF Lese- Majesty

Some months ago a German tribunal
in provincial town sentenced a man
to several months imprisonment for
lcse-majesty, because he kept his seat
while the emperor's health was drunk.
Recently another prosecution occurred
in another town, but the accused was
acquitted, the judge deciding that
keeping ones seat under such cir
cumstances could not be regarded in
the eyes of the law as an insult to his
majesty, unless words were used
clearly implying an injurious intent.

AN HISTORIC CLOCK.
which licked While Washington Was
at the Lodge.

at the Lodge.
The grand lodge of Masons in New
York has just come into possession of
very interesting relic in the shape OF
a grandfather's clock that struck the
hours for Yorktown lodge in the
troubled days when George Washing
ton, Lafayette and other officers OF
the Continental army used to visit it
and attend its sessions. The lodge
ceased to exist in 1912, and the old
clock was probably sold with the rest
of the furniture. 1t was unearthed in
a Baltimore pawnshop by DR.. A. Il.
Lyman of Lyman, Md.
The doctor, who is a prominent
Mason, had his attention attracted by
the figuring on the dial, which proved
to be a Masonic block. He traced back
it's history and established beyond
doubt that it was made for the York
town lodge in 1881 by John Fisher,
whose name and home town are en-
graved on the dial. Remembering the
historical associations of that lodge he
was not slow in rescuing it from the
junk shop. The clock has been placed
in the east end of the library at the
Masonic temple. 1t is an eight-day
clock, in mahogany case and stands
about eight feet high. On the brass
dial are engraved the Masonic square
and compass, the columns and the
Masonic pavement, with the name,
"John Fisher, Yorktown"
1t shows the day of the: month and
the phases of the moon correctly. The
moon is represented by the face of
young damsel with very ruddy cheeks
that is alternately hidden behind a
brass earth and a brass sun, while the
stars of the armament stare in won
der.
Despite its liz years, the old clock
keeps good time. 1t strikes twelve
sometimes when it should strike one,
but the grand officers consider this
nothing against it. Modern clocks
have been known to be as erratic. AS
to the phases of the moon, it is said
that they have not varied from the
almanac FIVE minutes in two years.

How the Electric Headlight Is Now
Used on Numerous Railroads.

Used on Numerous Railroads.
The electric headlight is now used
on many railroads, and w. b. Sparks,
who is interested in southern road,
recently told writer that his COM
pany had found it very profitable
investment. The lights cost about
1915 each, fixed on the locomotive,
and they cost no more than the oil
light to maintain. The old headlight
would not throw its light on a very
dark night more than $50 feet, and it
up his train in that distance, even
with the emergency brake. Quite an
item in the expense of the road used
to be claims for cattle killed.
During the rainy season the lands
along the line of road become very
wet-in places they are entirely COW
cred with water AID the cattle come
upon the track seeking some dry spot
on which to sleep. When the old
headlight was in use as many as thir-
teen cows have been killed at one
time and the damage claims have
sometimes amounted to over $1,000
per month. Now the electric light
throws its rays from half to three
quarters of mile in front of the en-
CINE. DISTINCTIONS can be easily seen
at that distance and some of the en-
gineers insist that a switch disk can
be more easily made out by it at night
than in the daytime. The lights,
moreover, do away with switch lights,
which is quite saving to roads that
use them to any great extent. Mr..
Sparks says that the engines using the
electric headlights on his road have
never killed a COW, and he is confident
that the saving in stock claims alone
will more than pay for all the head
lights on the road within two years.

III the Press Gallery Is Crowded Some
thing Interesting Is on Foot.
The movements of the press gallery
overlooking the senate chamber at
Washington are doubtless the safest
barometer of the Importance of the
doings on the floor below. If the gal
thing is surely transpiring in the
chamber that is worth watching. If
they are empty the proceedings are
apt to possess no interest. The public
may be mistaken and the visitors gal
leries may be overlooking, but the
curiosity seekers do not possess the
delicate instinct of foretelling inn
pending crises, and if the press gal
lery be empty, though expectancy be
written on every face that peers down
from the crowded balconies, no
gladiaterial fcats of competing ora
tory need be looked for, and disap-
pointment will overtake him who dis
regards the signs. This was well IL
lustratcd one day last winter. When
Mr.. German rose TO reply to Senator
Sherman not more than two or three
heaus appeared above the row OF seats
in the press gallery. Once or twice
Mr.. Germans eye wandered carelessly
in that direction and encountered a
tier of vacant seats, but he had not
got far into his subject before head
after head appeared over the row of
desks. and, as il by some subtitle mag
&c, forty or fifty men were in their
seats following the debate with close
attention and mentally registering
their comments on the proceedings.
Each man had come from different
direction and from every conceivable
corner of the vast block of corridors
and committee-rooms. No one had
told them what was on. IL was the
indefnable instinct of impending
news developments.
