day and the motorman had her bounc-
ing along the other side Of the trotting

wave her arms, motioning for the con-
ductor TO stop. He pulled the cord ana
the motorman brought the car To a
sudden halt. When the car was finally
brought to a standstill the lady did not

Portland Press: The average voter is

making mistakes. Though fully 50 per
cent. Of the ballots in this city We're
split, the per cent. of defective was very
small. and most Of the errors showed
M lack Of understanding Of the require
ments Of the law. but merely forget
fulness Thus one Of the cOmmOnest
errors was the omission of the cross in
the party square, indicating that the
voter had become so absorbed in split
ting that he for the moment forgot the
crucial requirement Of the law. There
was some pasting of stickers over the

II the spaces underneath the printed
names We're made wider on the ballot
It would be only fair to the voter. He
has the right to scratch if he wants
TO, and every reasonable facility
should be given him to exercise that
right. The space between the names
of representatives on the ballot are so
narrow that it is almost impossible to
paste in a sticker without partly COW
ering up either the name above Or the
one below. With these spaces widcned
there would be little ground for com
plant against the form of the present

Estimates Regarding Proposed H.
linois Ship Canal.

General Wilson, chief of engineers, has
received from the board of engineers
Gently convened in Chicago two reports
authorized by the last Congress the
conversion of the Chicago drainage canal
into ship canal connecting Lake Michigan
with the Mississippi
The first of these reports deals with the
cost and engineering problems of a seven
and eight-foot channel through the
drainage canal and striking the MISSISSIPPI
pi by way of the Illinois and Des PLANES
river The second is similar, except that
1t provides estimates on a ten, twelve and
fourteen-foot channel over the same route.
These reports will go promptly to the
Secretary of War. and will be submitted to
Congress as soon as possible after it con-
venes. There is a mass of reports of SINH
lar nature, covering river and harbor i'm
prOvements all over the country. which
will be submitted to Congress about the
same time. There are siXty-seven of these
reports all told and it is hoped to get con-
sideration for them all during the present
session.

JIMMIE MANNING COMING.
New Base Ball Magnate for This City
VIII Arrive Here Monday Morning.

Base ball news and gossip will once more
jump to the front as the chief subject for
discussion by the sporting writers next
week. President Ban Johnson, James Man
ming of Kansas City and probably Connie
Mack Of Milwaukee and Comiskey Of Chi
cago will leave the west today and arrive
in this city Sunday night or Monday morn
ing. Mr. Johnson will probably assist
Manning in locating in Washington, and
1t will be definitely known whether
the latter cares for local capital in running
the American League club in this city next
season. In this respect nothing has been
given out one way or the other.
After stopping d few days in this city the
American League magnates will move on
toward New York for the National League
meeting, stopping on the way at Baltimore
and Philadelphia. AS before stated, the
coming meeting of the National League
will be one of the most important in its
history, and the American League officials
will play small part therein.
Jimmy Manning comes to Washington
with most enviable reputation as a ball
player manager and gentleman.
Many of the veteran fans will recall
the days when he was the sensational
fielder of the Boston club and how like
wise boy he saved his money, so that when
the time came he was enabled to buy the
franchise of the Kansas City team in the
Western, now American, League. He con-
tinued playing with the Kansas Cltys for
several years and then withdrew in favor
of younger men. Jimmie has been a
big success, both a player and bench
manager, his players approaching fair
treatment and doing their best, thereby ad-
vaLcng the interests of the club.
Last season the Kansas City club finished
away back in the championship race, but 1t
was directly traced to the drafting claims
of the National League club his splendid
team of the year before being torn to
pieces. Manning will bring to Washington
several good players, but, in addition, will
secure first-cass men from the National
League as there will be a great many not
neeued by the major organization. In
social sense Jimmie Manning has a splendid
reputation in Kansas City, the papers from
there speaking in the most laudatory terms
Of his gentlemanly qualities. One thing Mr..
Manning can rest assured of, and that is,
that il a foreign man is to come into Wash
ington to run base ball there is not a bet
ter person than himself to please the local

INSECTS IN METAL.
The Ingenious Device of French ma n
for Reproducing Them.

for Reproducing Them.
From the New York Evening Post
Did you ever see a copper caterpillar,
silver centipede, or nickel gnat? Yet
these and many similar objects can be had.
If not for the asking, at least tor a reason
able amount of money, at several places in
New York. Who discovered the curious art
is unknown, but it was introduced into this
city by an eccentric Frenchman who said
that he had elaborated the discovery of
some chemists in Paris. NJ Paul Despotte,
for such was the mans name, declared his
reoret to be as follows: He first happened
tie luckless insect, leaf or flower and then
blew on it with blowpipe. The object
thus busted was placed in an eeCtrolytic
bath. and upon it the metal was preciptat-
ed by the galvanic current The object
was then transferred to second bath, from
which all the organic matter was dissolved
by az. alkali The metallic shell which re-
n'aincd was slightly heated, touched with
s;u.c E,rd Of shelac. and the thing was
dole The inventor carried with him quite
a collection of these preparations. The
most il tc.cstng OF all were mosquito in
god ar,l hairy geranium leaf in copper.
The delicacy OF the work was eXtr 1ordi-
naiy Under powerful magnifying glass
the little organs which are invisible to the
nunlalt eye were seen perfectly repro luced
in metal. The discovery does not seem to
have been utilized to any great extent SO far
as trade is concerned, but has been taken up
by nAny an,eteurs. This fall an ing ,nious
girl u. town first covered the back Of her
hani with back lead and then pat. d it
with METAL. She removed this, whicn VAS
perfect cast. and used it as matrix. in
whiCh she deposited second coat of metal,
which she finally mounted on l piece OF
satin. H7r hand, as may be supposed, was
pretty, ana when reproduc I'd I COPPER
made a work of art as move as 1t WAS at
