Tom Marshall, the famous independ-
ent of Allegheny county, is the latest
man to declare for Congressman Stone.
He says:
Eyes, 1 am in favor of the nominal
ton of Colonel w. A. Stone for gov
ernor. He is our representative in con-
gress, and exhibited large ability and
earned distinction in his congressional
career. He possesses all the requisites
for a successful candidate. He is a SOL
der boy; close and near to the rank
and file; in touch with the people.
What he is he has earned in the field.
He entered the nations service and
passed through the struggle of the
grandest conflict that the world ever
witnessed. The men Of the south
were u brothers in blood and courage
brave, enthusiastic, believing that
they were defending their rights and
homes.
After the close of the war Mr.. Stone
devoted himself to the study of law,
came to our county, and was appoint
ed United States attorney for the west
ern district. Afterward he was chosen
our representative in congress to sue
coed my friend and student, Colonel
Thomas NJ. Bayne. During his ser
vice in congress he has been earnest
active and watchful of the interests Of
the people. There lies his strength. He
is in touch with the rank n hle-lne
men who in the field fought and won
our victory for $13 a month, and never
to themselves said: We will attain ais-
tinction or reputation
'In peace he has sought to protect
American labor from the %inundation of
foreign paupers the outflow of the
effete population of the Old World. Col
onel Stone is a man of energy and ac-
tivity; has his eyes open to the do
ings and tendencies Of the times. He
does not owe his position to wealth or
any adventurous circumstances. He
has earned his position by hard, rugged
effort, and is not allied to any special
interest. He is one of the people, and
has a kindred touch to the varied in

MARSHALL ON COLONEL STONE
Famous "o1d Tom" Of Allegheny, Comes

Favor of the Congressman For
the Republican Nomination
For Governor.


Philadelphia, Nov. 29.-Politics do not
seem to make a ripple upon the placid
surface of the state Of Pennsylvania at
the present time. But this apparent
rest should not be taken too seriously.
There is a good deal Of agitation under
the surface, and it viii break loose in
due time. Before this letter reaches the
reader Senator Quay, who has return
ed to Washington from his Florida
retreat, will have plunged once more
into the excitement and worry Of polit-
ical n legislative life at the national
capital. Senator Penrose has already
gone to Washington, where he has Sc
cured quarters for the winter. Nearly
all of the members of the Pennsylvania
delegation are getting housed for the
winter and otherwise preparing for a
short, sharp and decisive campaign un-
der the big dome of the capitol. 1t
must be said in all candor that the
state of Pennsylvania never had a bet
ter or more energetic representation at
the capitol han it has at the present
time, and the two senator's and the
congressman can be depended upon to
get all there is possible to get for the
state of Pennsylvania, both in the way
of appointments and appropriations.

A small fox-terrier caused great
commotion among the wild beasts of
the Central park menagerie a short
time ago, says the New York Evening
Post. He began by annoying the
lion, which, aroused by the dogs
barking. arose, looked at the small
creature, then walked oil. But the
terrier continued his challenge, aud
the lion ut last became so enraged that
he uttered roar, which set the whole
house agog. Then the dog trotted
over to the hippopotamus, slipped mp
close TO one of the bars, and yelped
in the monsters ear. The hippopo-
tamus got up, others of his family
joined him, and the terrier led them
up and down till they we're enrnged
and he was tired. He went off to the
rabbits, which he soon had in terror.
Wearying of this he baited the bears,
which climbed and grunted aud
growled, trying first to reach the
tormentor, then to draw him to them.
His equal was man with gun.
Keeper Snyder had heard the noise
left in the trail of the terrier, and he
followed to the bear den, where the
dog was looking about for more fun.
There was a shot, and the small dog
dropped silent on the rocks.

How % Dly Buried u Spider.

Samuel Simon, ST., well known
resident of Neshannock Township,
while strolling near his home one day
recently, noticed fly about half an
inch long and of n dark blue color,
with slim body, bearing large dead
spider, says the Newcastle (Pa.
Democrat. The fly crossed his path
and laid his load down. He then
went about eighteen inches in another
direction and began digging hole in
the ground. His curiosity being ex-
cited, Mr.. Simon stopped and watched
the work. After the fly had the hole
dug about half the length of himself,
he went to where he had left the
spider and took its dimensions. After
going back to the hole he found it was
not big enough and began digging
again. After taking ont quantity of
earth he again went to the spider and
again took his dimensions. He did
this eight times and as often enlarged
the hole. When the busy little fellow
had the hole too deep for him to throw
the dirt clear out he would get on the
bank and force it back with his feet.
After he had the excavation large
enough for his purpose he went for
the spider and brought it to the grave,
for such it proved to be, and dragged
it to the mouth of the hole. After he
had the body in he covered it with
fine earth first, and finished by placing
small piece of cinder on top. When
he had finished the work he few
away. The whole time consumed was
exactly fifty-five minutes, as Mr..
Simon says he watched the whole per-
formance.

attack man, but though only eighteen
feet long, will assail the largest whale.
Like the land wolf, the orca travels in
packs. 1t is afraid of nothing. 1t is
classed by naturalists as porpoise,
but is true whale. The back fms
are six feet high, and look like daggers.
Seals are its favorite prey. A pack
will follow herd of swimming seals
for weeks. They will attack full.
grown walruses, and rob them of their
young. They are strong and swift,
and rarely captured. The Makab In.
dinns of Washington state are fond Of
their flesh and fat. An orca has
twenty-four huge, conical teeth. In
Atlantic waters they are often useful
to fishermen in driving schools of fish
ashore. Swimming seals attacked by
"killer" whales are SO distracted they
sometimes approach n vessel as if for
protection. During the season when
fur seals breed on the Pribilof Islands
in Bering sea, the ocean is filed with
hungry orcas, waiting for the pups
to take their first swimming lessons.
They even rush upon them among the
rocks, and frequently become stranded
themselves. Sometimes an orca is
captured with twenty young seals in
its stomach. DIR. Steineger and Mr..

Fun With Make Believe Bonbons.

Boys and girls of Italy and France
and the older people as well-have
one sport of which American young
folk know nothing at ALL And it is
sport that would appeal to any boy OF
girl of any land.
At carnival time and midlent every
one is supplied with bonbons or small
colored limitations of bonbons and col
ored paper disks known as confetti, with
which the boys and girls take pleasure
in pelting one another right vigor-
ously. 1t doesn't hurt to be hit by
confetti, and they are thrown in vast
quantities. Sometimes a party will
gather ON a balcony with O. whole bag
Of the paper trihes, and as the people
pass in the street below they are
treated to real shower of confetti.
Another form of the sport consists
in throwing serpentines, or large rolls
of ribbon paper. The thrower holds
fast to one end of the ribbon and gives
the ball sharp throw over the crowd.
In half minute score Of people are
tangled up in the confusing meshes.
This is even more exciting sport than
the throwing of confetti, because it
strikes good many persons at once.

fetti and serpentines clever French

Heat in the Body.

An important source of heat In the
body is due to the friction of the blood
as 1t circulates In its vessels. All Of
this resistance, which is overcome by
the heart, !s transformed directly into
heat. We may calculate the amount
approximately. If we suppose that 1S0
ccs. of blood are expelled from the left
ventricie at each stroke, under a pres
sure of one third of an atmosphere, this
would correspond to .6192 kilogramme
metres at each stroke, and at ~ strokes
a minute, this would give 44.3124 kilo
grammemetres per minute. IL we sup
pose that the right heart does one-quar
ter the work of the left, or about 10
kilogrammc- metres per minute, we
have for the total work per minute
54.312 kilogramme metres, which cor.
responds to 12s calories per minute.
This Is perhaps rather high estf
mate for ordinary conditions, but
where the heart is forced to pump 0

TO maintain the normal temperature,
