There Is one senator. writes Wash
ington correspondent. who has not YET
spoken q word. but whose personality
has become of much interest to fire.
quenters OF the galleries Porter James
McCumber OF North Dakota sits In TIA
rear row on the Republican side. He ID
the most regular attendant upon ses-
sions that his side OF The chamber
has. No speech is 50 dreary that Nc
Comber does not sit II out More than
that, his face assumes a most seriouS
and attentive aspect From time TO
time the North Dakota man bends over
the writing pad on his desk and makes
q few notes. Then he raises his face
and watches the speaker intently. The
first time Senator McCumber took
notes those who saw him were sure he
was going to make some reply. But he
didn't He has taken notes every day,
and he has not yet spoken. When the
chamber Is full and business Is OF gen.
eral interest Senator McCumber's de-
votion to debate does not attract at
tention. But when some senator Is
simply killing time, and hve-sixths of
the seats are empty and nobody but
Senator McCumber Is listening. the
action OF the North Dakota statesman
is impressive.

DETROIT SURPRISES LAxorHY.

Mayor Maybury of Detroit, who wit
messed THE Degenerates" at Toledo
the other night, threatened to revoke
the opera house franchise in Detroit
IL the play was put on there. and so it
was given in Windsor, Ont. a little
Canadian town across the river from
Detroit The play. according to De-
troit's mayor, Is based upon the theory
that actions can be performed and in
situations made on the stage which
are not tolerated N decent society.
The plot, he says, Is a continuous liza
son and the dialogue, has reference
only to these liasons. the language be-
ting unmistakable and pointing direct
liz to the purpose Of the plot. This ar
alignment is just. and yet Mrs. Lang
trz's play drew good houses instead OF
protests when 1t was presented in Chi

TRAINING OF CHTLDREN.

AS q general thing the idea OF max
ing a special study Of children in a
scientific way, much as q scientist
would observe a beetle or Q baboon,
seems rather cold-blooded to most peo-
pie. Such investigations OF childhoods
tendencies and motives as Prof. Ash
croft has recently been making do not
fall under this category. Formulating
certain questions as to what children
would do with money which they
to them. Prof. Ashcroft obtained GER
tain data which lead to conclusions
quite favorable on the whole as to the
charitable. generous and saving in
stlncts of boys and girls. or nearly
1000 children questioned as to what
they would do with a dollar II given
them to spend as they pleased. 81 per
cent expressed themselves in favor OF
buying useful articles, 80 per cent nom
useful articles, per cent would use 1t
for benevolent purposes, and 5 per cent
for buying presents for their friends.
Other Investigations showed that in a
school where penny savings banks
were established the latter were an I'M
doubted encouragement to thrift On
the whole, Prof. Ashcroft's investiga-
tons seem to give a complete refuta-
ton to the materialistic idea that chill
dren are naturally savages. who must
be trained in the ways OF civilization.

Modern way of Kul,ar . whale.

The old and romantic way Of killing
whales has died out There is no longer
the frail vhaleboat, with the grizzled
old harpooner in the bow to strike the
whale, but instead a little steam craft
and a powerful gun. This gun throws
q large iron harpoon. with crossarms
which lie against the shaft until it
strikes a solid body and then project
out and imbed themselves. The head
Of this harpoon is cigar-shaped, and
sharp-pointed, and explodes as Il
pierces the whales side. generating q
gas, which serves to keep the fish afioat
after the wrecking effect Of the shock
on its internal organs has left 1t q
lifeless man. A stout rope Is attached
to the butt OF the harpoon, and by
this the whale Is Kept in leash as 1t
I-rashes madly through the water In a
vain effort to escape its unknown en-
envy. Death rapidly ensues. unless, as
sometimes happens. the projectile goes
through the fish from side to side,
when a second shot Is necessary.

ATTEMPT ON WALES LIFE.

The attempt upon the life OF the
prince Of Wales was quite what might
have been expected, because. happily
for the credit of human nature. ninety
nine out of one hundred of the per-
sons who believe in murder as a polit-
zeal agency are, so close TO the line Of
idiocy that their attempts strike at
that person who, of all others, is least
responsible for the wrongs they allege
as the motives Of their acts. Every sane
person knows that the prince OF Wales
has no more 10 do with the South
African war than the man in the
moon He is an absolute nullity In
politics. Only short time ago a crazy
Italian anarchist" as he chose to call
himself, struck down the blameless
empress Of Austria. The assassina-
lions OF President Carnot. OF Garfield.

blind imbecility. II is well known that
the murder Of Alexander OF Russia re-
moved the one person from whom rad
ical political improvements in that
country were to be expected, putting
back political progress in the empire
for twenty years.

chose for evaporation Is sulphurous
acid, which is cheap. easily obtained.
and is so oily that 1t lubricates the In

without corroding them. The steam
passes into the surface condenser or
evaporizer. in which the cooling me-
dunn, instead OF being water, Is liquid
sulphurous acid, the boiling point OF
which is so low that the liquid Is de-
composed Immediately by the heat OF
the exhaust steam, liberating sulphur

the cylinder OF an auxiliary engine,
where its work is done as in an ordi-
nary steam engine. Then the sulphur

cHoRE BOY TO MILLIONAIRE.

To advance from the humble po--
ton Of ''chore boy" on a farm. receiV-
ing fifty cents a week. to be one Of
the leading business men OF a state is
indeed q long step. but this is what
has been accomplished by James Oil
yer. Of South Bend, Ind. He has fought
his way alone and unaided from power
ty to riches. and now holds q promi-
nent place In social and industrial
circles. Mr.. Oliver was born in Scot
land in 1923. and came to America
when thirteen years OF age. He locat-
ed in Geneva. N. Y, and secured a
place on a farm at fifty cents a week.
His father and brother had preceded
him to America and were located on
another farm near by. In 1885 the
three removed to Indiana, and James
secured employment on a farm at Sc
a month. Saving little money. ne
made an investment in real estate.
which gave him a start. Then be
learned the holders trade and in 1856
became a manufacturer on q small
scale. His business grew and, by de-
vising q plan whereby an improvement
he had long sought was accomplished,
he was started on the road to riches.
Success, having once smiled upon him,
became lavish in the bestowal Of her
bounty and his wealth is now estimat-
ed at from slO.OOO.OOO to s15.OOO.OO9.
