RIDES VICIOUS BROKCOS.
But McGinty at Last Met More
Than His Master,
HE HAS A CRUSHED LEG.

How He Lost His Seat But Did Not
Lose His Nerve-McGinty Was One
of the Most Modest of the Rough
Riders.
The bucking bronco of the West is
more dangerous than Spanish bullets,
according to William McGinty, who
has had experience of both. McGinty
was one of the famous band of Rough
Riders who charged up San Juan Hill
on certain memorable occasion near
ly two years ago. More recently he
has been engaged nightly in charging
up the miniature San Juan Hill in
Madison Square Garden, New York,
along with the other troopers and cow
boys of the wild West" show. At
present he is laid up with crushed
leg, as the result of close range en-
gagement with one of the prize buck
ers" of the outfit.
McGinty was not thrown. The horse
has yet to come out of Texas that can
unseat the diminutive trooper once he
gets his leg over the saddle. This
particular animal, however, being full
of original ideas, as well as devil
incarnate, thought to rid himself of
his unwelcome rider by flying side
wise leap. In the course of this leap
he brought up against the side fence
of the arena. McGinty's leg was be-
tween the wall and the horse. One
bone was snapped short off, and the
other was crushed. The little man did
his turn" rode the four footed cata-
pult across the arena and then slid

HANNA
Has Served Notice
On Friends Of Congress-
man Phillips,
That He Must Not be
Independent
Candidate For Reelection
Against BeidIer.
Afraid 1t Might injure Chances Of
Mckinley.

Down in Medina county cooler heads
will prevail and all talk of Congress
man Phillips being nn independent
candidate for congress against j. A..
Beidlcr VIII be forgotten, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. Such men as
Phillips before the congressional con.
vention, are opposed TO the congress
man running Independently. or course
there are q number of Mr.. Phillips
personal friends in Medina who still
insist that the Medina man was robbed
of his rights by being defeated for u
denomination.
Senator Wightman was in town last
night. He stated that many Medina
county Republicans were still feeling
aggrieved over the fact that Congress
man Philips was not nominated for
second term. He also said there was
still plenty of talk of Phillips running
ming as an independent candidate.
But the Senator said he thought such
action on the congressman's part would
be very unwise. He further said that
he would urge Mr. Phillips TO decline
to be an independent candidate.
! This statement from Senator Wight
man means what has been previously
contended, viz, that there will be no
| independent candidate in the field ana
| that all talk to that effect was idle,
| in that 1t will be forgotten before the
lproposition assumed any tangible form.
| Congressman Phillips will return TO
| Medina next week and his friends
who are still talking independent can
didates will ask him to sacrifice him.
self upon the independent altar
Then the wise political leaders OF Me-
dina will counsel the congressman 10
decline the honor. They will tell MN
that he will run against almost sure
defeat. They will also hold before
his eyes the damage that will be done
President Mckinley in the event the
congressman consents to be drawn INTO
contest with the coal magnate. ne
will be told how Mr.. Beidler's frlends
will retaliate by bolting the president
and it will be forcibly presented that
the president will need every vote ne
can muster this fall.
The upshot of the whole business Is
likely TO be that Congressman Philiips
will gracefully decline to accept the
honor of running as an independent
congressional candidate In presideh-
tIal wear. In the event the Medina
county Republicans should persist IN
their efforts to assemble In mass con-
yention for the purpose OF selecung
an opuosition candidate 1t Is highiy
probable that Medina would be the
only county represented. None OF Mr.
Hanna's Republicans in Cuyahoga
county would dare countenance such
proceedings, for the reason the senator
has expressly forbid 1t. He sent woro
back to the faithful through Col V. a.

has discovered two remedies which can
be employed simultaneously to prevent or

hold Of Il vessel. The first is to have
vertical tubes which go from the deck
deep into the hold, down which thermom-
etcrs may be lowered from time to time,
and the temperature in the hold aScer~

covcry of danger. The second method
is really completion Of the first, and
consists in placing in the hold 4 barrel

fire is discovered an acid (such as sui

Prof. AIoissau during the recent interna-

was born in 1895, and studied at the
Paris School of Pharmacy While phar-

Pclletier, and their fruitful collaboration
began. Two years after discovering
brucine and strychnine they were able to
announce the discovery of quinine, and,
with rare disinterestedness, they made
their work public by presenting an ac-
count of their methods and results to the
Paris academy on September II, 1920.
In their memoirs they stated that they
had succeeded in isolating cinchonine and
qulnlne from both yellow and red cincho-

properties of these substances. In 1927
