The number of Independent Democratic

the number Of candidates in the race,
irrespective OF their political affiliations.
As heretofore forecasted in The Times
the prospect Of adjustment of the differ
ences in several of the counties and dis
trlcts where there are contests is very
remote. In Isle OF Wight particularly.
the conclusion has been reached that there
is small prospect Of a settlement.
Senator Martin will probably not make
any speeches during the campaign. There
Is little need Of oratory. and there is
lonk list of good speak rs from which the
party can make selections Senator Mar
tin will confne himself TO work in a
Quiet way which il is believed will be
more effective than any speeches he might
make.

Bitten by a Squirrel.

A few days ago Mr.. Eli Yoder, re-
siding near Eglon, in Preston county,
a few miles south of Oakland, was en-
gagged in telling some timber when he
noticed a squirrel run into a hollow
tree. Mr.. Yoder attempted to catch
the animal when it turned upon him
and bit his hand. No attention was
paid to the wound at that time but a
few hours later his arm began swell
ing and caused such pain that a ply
sician was summoned to relieve Mr..
1oder of his suffering. Blood poison
ing has taken place as a result of the
bite and Mr.. Yoder's life is despaired
of by his family and friends.
