Hon. Thos. f. Davis, who was can
didate for Governor in 1892, has been
interviewed down In Charleston. He
saws be is satisfied that Mr.. Wilson will
be beaten by some good Republican
next fall. That's what he thought about
MacCorkle two years ago, and he's been
thinking ever since. He seems to be
somewhat behind the times, for be says
that John W. Mason is in friendly
contest. with George E. Sturgiss for the
Congressional nomination TO oppose
Wilson. Mason is shrewd enough to
see that the nomination is not worth
having. and long since said he would
not have it, Maybe Davis would like
to try his hand again.

be has many friends 10 help him. and he
may be considered very strong eandi-
date. Governor Wilson himself declares
that II the field is left to himself aud
Senator Camden lie will defeat the lat
ter with ease, though friends OF the lat
ter laugh at this. One thing Is sure,
the fight will not be made on personal
lines. Personalities will not enter into
the campaign, and every aspirant for
Senatorial honors will work as hard for
the election of Democratic Legislature
as though every Democratic vote was
for himself.
The Shepherdstown Register is doubt
full of Kanawha politicians. In speak
ing of the withdrawal OF Governor Mac
Corkle and Joseph E. Chiffon from the
Senatorial contest, it gives expression
TO IFS doubts by adding that ut takes
very child-like confidence, however, to
imagine that Kanawha politician ever
withdraws from anything"
The Mcdowell county Democratic
committee met last week and called
mass convention of the party TO be held

right to name the candidate for Sena-

ten rule of rotation, and saturday
mass convention is expected TO decloe
the matter. j. T. Beavers, OF the Nc
Dowell Recorder, seems to be the strong
est candidate, and il nominated will go
before the people unpledged upon the
United States Senatorial question, but
promises to vote as they direct.
The Democratic executive committee
of Cabell county has called primary

The Harrison county Republicans
don't seem to take very kindly to either
Dovener's or Atkipson's candidacy for
Congress in the First district. They
have men at home who they think
would make just about as good Con-
Congressional candidates as either of
the Ohio county men, and from the tone
of the Telegram they would seem to feel
that the nomination Of a Harrison
county man is assured. The Telegram
saws: whether it be Maxwell or
Moore the people of this county can
rest assured that they will have an able
representative. Both men have been
tried and not found wanting. Judge
Maxwell is known all over our State as
one eff its fathers and Major Mbore as q
SOLDIER and legislator has shown the
kind of metal that is in him.

REPUnLIOAN DECEPTION.

Taking advantage Of the disappoint-
ment which unQuestiOnably exists
among the Democratic party, and the
disgust so plainly manifested by the
party with the action OF its Senators,
Republican editors are filing up their
columns day by day with rash, indef-
mite assertions about large numbers Of
Democrats who have left their party
and from now on may be found acting
with the Republicans. This makes
goAd reading matter for the Republican
reJhers Of these papers, but in nearly
evaky instance the stories are without
Foundation. Il will not be denied that
democrats who hoped for speedy reform
n the tariff laws Of the nation, who ex-
pected the pledges Of the party to be
promptly fulfilled. who were earnest In
their belief that taxation should be re-
dueed aud believed that il would, are
thoroughly disguised with the way in
,hich the tariff bill has been treated in
.he Senate. That disgust could not be
concealed even il any Rpe desired to
zeal it. 1t has openly ex-
in every n state in the

While Jim Hughes intends to remain
in the race for the Republican nomina-
ton for Congress in the Fourth district,
his party Is determined to defeat him.
Banker Warren Miller, of Jackson
county, who was conspicuous figure
at the meeting Of the State Bankers
Association at Charleston last week, is
TO be nominated to catch the farmer
vote, although there is disposition in
some quarters to nominate A. B. White,
Of the Parkersburg STATE Journal The
Logan Banner speaks Of the situation
thus: THE fight for the Republican
nomination for Congress in the Fourth
district has narrowed down and there
are now only two aspirants with a
fighting chance. Hon. A. B. White, Of
the Slate Journal, of Parkersburg, and
Hon. Warren Miller, Of Jackson. 1t is
none Of our fight, yet we think that the
Republicans Of the Fourth would honor
themselves in recognizing in fitting
manner gentleman who has labored
so faithfully for mis- party as A. b.

Fourth district politics are still In an
interesting condition on both sides. w.
w. Thomas, OF Putnam, has actively
entered the race for the Congressional
nomination since Judge Harvey's with
drawal. The Huntington .idCerit>A
editorially says a good many nice things
about Thonas, and thinks he will be a
strong candidate. Twice" says the
Advertiser, has he carried his county
as the candidate of his party for the
lower House of the State Legislature,
and he is the only Ran who has been
able to do il since 1876 on square party
fight. As q member Of our House Of
Delegates he was conspicuous, not only
as a debater, but as a floor ard commit
tee worker. The nomination OF Mr..
Thomas for Congress by the Democrats
OF the Fourth district would mean an
active canvass from first TO last. He is
a vigorous stump-spsaker, fluent talk
er, and would not hesitate TO meet the
opposing candidate before any audience.
Mr.. Thomas is in the race TO stay until
tho nomination is made, and-mark the
lahguage-the man who defeats him
will earn his honors."

Another candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for Congress has ap-
pearee in the Third district. The Hon.
John D. Anderson, the present incum-
bent, and Hon. John A. Preston, OF
Greenbrier, have been considered the
only candidates since the withdrawal
of Ex-Governor Wilson from the con-
gressional race, until the cry went up
from the counties south OF the Kama
wha that they should have represent
ative. Never since the district was
created has the Congressman been TAX
en- from that part Of the district, and
the voters there begin to feel that it is
time they were being recognized. A
correspondent of the Charleston Ga
zctte has nominated Hon. Henry Clay
Raglaud, editor of one Logan Banner,
and a well-known Democrat Of Logan
county. He would make splendid
representative, would look increasingly
after the interests Of his constituents,
aud could be relied upon TO always
act strictly upon the principles OF De-
mocracy. He will have considerable
strength in the convention from the
southern counties should he conclude
to enter the race.

Counterfeit Coins.

Within the last few years numbers OF
forgerles of extremely rare coins in the
British museum and ia private collec-
tions have been sold by auction in Lon
don. So good is their execution that it
seems probable that means have been
devised for casting steel dies on plaster
casts or of hardening electrotype dies.
The manufacture of rare siege pieces"
carried on in one of our midland towns,
shows a far lower amount of skill.
When genuine but defaced coins are
restruck with new impressions, it is
very difficult to discover the fraud.
Some genuine ancient coins are surfrap-
pees in this manner-as, for instance, a
whole class of Jewish coins which are
struck on Roman silver denarii. But
when the image and superscription of
William Ill can be discerned underly-
ing the device on a rare crown piece of
Elizabeth the question of its authentic
ity is soon solved. -Longman's Maya
zine.

The pharmacop9ia has long recon-
mended iron wire as material for iron
preparations. Musical wire, being steel
and therefore purer. is also often ap-
piled and yields sufficiently pure prep
arations. More lately there have been
recommended for this purpose soft steel
drillings. rs being cheaper, purer and
not so difficult to dissolve as wire, which
by the various processes of forging, ham,
mering, rolling and final drawing be-
comes denser and harder.
The more impure an iron the quicker
it will dissolve. but the same piece of
iron or steel will more rapidly dissolve
the less it has undergone the mechanical
treatments in question. Thus. if the i'm
mense amount Of mechanical labor be
considered to which an iron or steel bar
is subjected in reducing its diameter to
that of wire, it is argued that soft steel
drillings, shavings or turnings deserve
preference. In a word. the turnings and
drillings of axles and steel boiler plate.
which can be obtained at any steel works
or machine shop. are ranked among the
purest brands Of iron. in the chemical
sense Of the word. According to ex-
perts, it may be considered a practical
rule hat any brand Of steel capable Of
making good axle or boiler plate will
also yield pure preparations on dissolv-
ing.-New York Tribune.

A Family of Giants.

The best evidence of the truth of the
theory of heredity l ever saw" said T.
E. Lucas to the corridor man at the Lin
dell, SIS a family named Walker, living
in Mitchell county, N. G. There are at
present seven brothers and five sisters,
the lowest stature of any of them being
6 feet, which is the height Of one of the
girls. Her sisters run in regular gradu,
alton as to height-6 feet / inch. 6 feet
9 inches and 6 feet 3 inches. The tallest
brother is 7 feet 8 inches, and the short
est 6 feet 8 inches.
"The mother is short. being but 5 feet
8 inches, while the father, from whom
the children inherit their remarkable
growth, is Z feet 2 inches. He is of q
family of nine brothers, the tallest OF
whom was 8 feet in height and the short
est Z feet, and all of them lived to a CON
siderable age, the only n surviving,
however. being the father Of the sons
and daughters mentioned. If the pres.
ent family were arranged one above the
other, they would reach 70 feet 6 inches
in height. 1t is said that all of the an.
cestors back through several generations
were Of like proportions st. Louis

Hard Deposits In Steam Hoilers.

A very simple method Of preventing
hard deposits III steam boilers is men
toned by ii. Schmidt, a French en-.
gineer. There are two boilers in use at
the same time, n being at rest, and
the water in use is very bad, being very
calcareous and magnesic, with organic
matter, chlorides and a little sulphate OF
of lime. Each boiler is allowed to go on
working for about 500 hours before
being cleaned, when it is stopped,
with the water in it, and allowed to cool
down for about a week. The masonry
is allowed to become cold, and then the
tap is opened, also the safety valve. SC
that the water runs naturally ont of the
boiler, the latter, when empty. being en-
tered and simply swept. The deposit,
being in the form of damp mud, is easily
swept away, leaving the boiler as clean
inside as if it were new.
This method has been in use some five
years and seems to show that the ordi.
nary hardening of deposits in boilers Is
due to the absence of water in them
while the mud and the iron are being
heated by the brickwork when the boiler
has been emptied by the ordinary meth
Cd under pressure. 1t is necessary, how
ever, under this system, to be able to do
without the particular boiler for some
eight days.-New York Sun.

A Weird Love Story.

The strangest test of will power and
endurance ever made, said E. ID. Con
sauls of the City of Mexico, at the
Southern, was in Mexico, the charac-
tiers being a Mexican girl and an Amer
lean They were lovers, and the
girls parents refused their consent to
the union, insisting that she should
marry a wealthy Mexican sutton. At
the suggestion Of the girl they agreed
to die together, and to test the strength
and endurance of each others love
they chose a means of suicide unlike
any ever dreamed of before. Food
and fruit were placed on "a table in the
center of a room, occupied by both, the
girl having escaped from her home, but
being unwilling to elope with her lover.
1t was agreed that they should starve
to death with plenty before them, and
should either sucCumb to nature and
partake of the food then both were re-
leased from the bond of death. but there
should be an everlasting separation. For
12 days they endured the pangs Of hun
ger without IL murmur or a thought of
waverlng from their purpose to die to-
gether. The twelfth day the .ather Of
the girl discovered her whereabouts,
and breaking the door they were car
ried out, too faint to stand alone. 1t
took them several days to recover their
strength. and when they did they were
married. This is a true statement, and
h American is living with his Mex
lean wife today.'-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

Like every other sense, that of sight
improves by use under healthy condi-
tons, and therefore the people who have
the greatest exercise of their vision in
the open air under the light of the sur
have the best eyesight. Generally speak
ing, savage tribes possess the keenest eye
sight, acquired through hunting. Natives
Of the Solomon islands are very quick at
p%erceiving distant objects, such as ships
at sea, and will pick out birds concealed
in dense foliage some 60 or 20 feet high.
Shepherds and sailors are blessed with
good sight.
Eskimos will detect q white fox in the
snow a great distance away, while the
Arabs Of the deserts of Arabia have such
extreme powers Of vision that on the
vast plains of the desert they will pick
out objects invisible to the ordinary eve.
at ranges from n to ten miles distant.
Among civilized peoples the Norwegians
have better eyesight than most if not all
others, as they more generally fulfill the
necessary conditions. The reason why
defective eyes are 50 much on the in.

lies in too much study of books in early

The law of the jungle, which never
orders anything without a reason. for
bids every beast to eat maj except when
he is killing to show his children how
to kill, and then he must hunt outside
the hunting grounds of his pack or
tribe. The real reason for this is that
man killing means, sooner or later, the
arrival of white men on elephants, with
guns. and hundreds of brown men with
gongs and rockets and torches. Then
/ everybody in the jungle suffers. The
reason the beasts give among them
selves is that man is the weakest and
most defenseless of all living things,
and it is unsportsmanlike to touch him.
They say, too-and it is true-that man
eaters become NANCY and lose their
teeth. -Rudyard Kipling in st. Mich
olas.
