and when II became evident that Roberts
was not coming. Miss Grifliths tainted,
and 1t took some time to revive her.
Miss Grifflths. who Is about twenty
five years OF age, is an attractive blonde
and the daughter OF Thomas Grifiiths.
She is popular in the village of White

She. indeed, no longer suffered from hun

At first she had tried for this ex-

1t will add interest to the legis-
1ative contests in this state to feel
that the selection OF a United States
senator is involved in the election.
Unfortunately this one fact will so
overshadow all others that the po-
sition Of candidates on other very
important questions will be over
looked. This legislature should be
a brainy body and competent to
tackle questions Of state concern.
These are not the men who are
likely to commit themselves to the
election of a Senator beforehand
and the probabilities are that they
will be left in the lurch and smaller
men chosen.

will be freed from costly construc-
