HARRISON FOR GOVERNOR.
"Buck" Hinrichseu Predicts Mayors
Nomination by Democrats.

Peoria, Ill. July 3L-Former Congress
man Buck IIinrichsen has returned to
his home in Jacksonville seemingly well
pleased with the recent Democratic meet
ing in Chicago He regards Carter H.
Harrison as the coming nominee for gov
ernor, ana believes he can be elected by
a big ma 1Ority.
w E. Williams, congressman from the
Sixteenth district, says:
In my opinion it were better for the
party in Illinois to take the gubernatOrial
candidate from outside of Chicago. It
would be wise to select some man out in
the state upon whom both Chicago fac
tons could unite"
Congressman Caldwell of the Seven
teenth district, mentioned for governor,
admits some probable changes in the Dem
ocratic platform. He says:
The plank that has TO do with the
money question viii verify likely be mod
fled somewhat. That is, it will be toned
down But even with change in the
money plank it viii be just the same. Any
platform with William J. Bryan upon it
stands for bimetallism. Another change
that will be made will be the insertion of
q plank antagonIzing imDeriaIism.n

The FerI5eet 1stin IpscrirticD.

(Rome Correspondence of London News.)
The inscription in archaic Latin discover
ed in the Roman Forum q column close
to the tomb of Romulus has frequently
been the subject of scientific discussions
a the Academia del Lincei, which in
Italy corresponds TO the Institute OF
France in Paris.
Senator Gamarrini gave an address to-
day showing that the inscription is the
same as that on the celebrated F'ormellus,
and that the archaic Roman writing was
imported, not from Cumae, but from Caere,
a place of vast antiquity. The early RO-
man civilization as well s religious rites
must therefore have been brought from
Caere-
The column found in the Forum has
therefore modified the opinion Of archaeol-
ogists to the origin of the Eternal City.
The pundits of the Academia del Lincei
are agreed that the column dates from
the first half of the sixth century 3. c.,
that is, from the epoch Of the Roman
kings and is consequently the first writ
ten vestige of that period discovered up
to the present.

of October. 1898, by an Alaskan Indian
named ShOpnegon and a squaw man, Rip

the big glacier near the Copper river 1t
was purchased by C.. F. Pariolat of this
city, and brought to Chicago last Novem-
Der, where it was sold for ST. 600.
The immense size of this animal can
be better judged when a glance is taken
q the following measurements:
The spread of the antlers is 1914 inches;
height of moose from hOof to top of an
tiers, feet inches; height from hoof
to top OF foreshOulder, feet 4 inches;
length from tip of nose to hook of rear
leg, IS feet; weight when killed, 1000
pounds.
No other such moose was ever heard of
