NEW YORK, May 5.-The repu blican
state committee will meet next Satur-
day to elect chairman in the place OF
the late Mr.. Hackett. There appears
to be no doubt that Congressman Odell
will be promoted to this place. This
will be the first move on the political
checkerboard SO far as the prepar ations
for the coming state campaign are con-
cerned. Following this meeting will
soon begin contest for the
control of the republican state conven-
ton. While the belief is that Govern
or Black will be renominated, there is
growing disposition, especially among
the machine men, to force him to q
choice between second term as gov
ernor and an election to the United
States senate. He has been regarded
to elect him as governor and then to
have him resign in order to enter the
senate, the lieutenant governor becom-
ing governor. 1t is not likely that this
programme will be popular with either
the politicians or the people. Some Of
Blacks recent leanlngs toward the
Independent wing of the party, are
talking of nominating Secretary Bliss,
ex-Mayor Schroeder. or some other
available man for governor.
Greater New York election of last
November. OF this number 164 900
have enrolled themselves in the pa rty
organic atoms under the new Primary
Reform law. This is greater number
than was expected, especially as the
war had detracted from the interest
in politics. Those enrolled represent
mainly the machine men in the demo-
cratic iand republican organizations.
Tammany alone has filed about 80. 600
names. Scarcely $4,000 Independents
have enrolled. But out of the 81 ZOO
unenrolled voters there are thousands
of Independent and other unattached
voters who will make themselves felt
In the elections. On the whole, the
first period Of enrolment has proved
more of a success than had been an
ticipated. Another chance for enroll
ment will be given on May 10, when
the regular election officers will meet
and take the names of sill those who
desire to enroll. Then on the days of
registration in the fall opportunity
will be given to enroll as members of
the party organization. 1t may be
taken as a correct statement hat nearly
all those on the list now are machine
men, who can be depended upon to
vote as the bosses dictate. Every
name that shall hereafter go on the
rolls will relatively weaken the power
of the bosses, and be regarded with

II has been discovered that if steel
knife and silver fork be inserted in a
large orange an electric current will be
generated If the end Of the fork and
the end OF the knife sticking from the
orange be connected with AN electric
measuring instrument, quite a percepti-
bic current will be found to pass The
tame kind of n battery may be made by
substituting cucumber for the orange
In fact, any acid fruit may be used.
In order TO make a yoltaic pile it is
only necessary to procure ten or more
pieces of zinc about m inch square, the
same number of pieces of copper and
like number Of pieces of paper The
paper should be thoroughly soaked in
vinegar
First take a piece Of zinc On 1t
place piece of vinegar soaked paper,
then put on piece Of copper, then a
piece of paper, then another zinc and
then paper, and SO on until all the
pieces Of zinc, copper and paper have
been used. II is important that piece
OF zinc should be on one end and piece
Of copper ON the other After the pile il
completed again soak the whole slight

sat on the pebbiy beach In the long.
bright summer months. smoking his
pipe aud watching stately vessels TO
and from distant lands. His own town
was full of historical interest to vlsi-
tors. There stood the rock of Dunn
barton. rugged and grand, unfolding
ITS formidable fortress. In the keep of
the castle might have been seen the
sword of the dauntless Wallace This
Is where he struck the first blow for in
jured, unhappy Scotland, and from the
summit of this stupendous rock he tore
down the dragon of England and
planted the lion of Scotland In its
stead. Below Is the peaceful valley,
and splendid panorama Is here spread
before you of beautiful, pastoral
scenes, encircling hills dotted here and
there with white villas and bonnie
green woods, with misty mountain
tops away in the background.
This Is where Donald Cameron had
chosen TO live the remainder of his
days with his lovely daughter Janet

village belle, and none could compare

and The Winsome, blue-eyed lass. Colin
loved the sea aud early chose 1t for his
vocation. The sea had Il fascination
for Janet, and she had long vowed
within herself that sailors wife she
would be as soou as she was old enough
