In the event of Van SAINTS election
Sam Fullerton is to be restored to his old
place as executive agent of the state
game and fish commission. Gossip has it
that Fullerton is about $1,000 In on the
election, which he will pull down if Van
SAINT is the recipient of a plurality. His
nerve in betting such fabulous amounts
would seem to entitle him to something
fatter, but Ell Warner, you know, was
wagering that Vans plurality would be
over 10000, SO he needs the money, while
Fullerton will not, If Van has a vote to
spare at all.
County Auditor johnson had such a
scare when the returns began to c)me In
from the Eighth ward Wednesday
morning that he Is looking for scape-
goats Rumor has 1t that he will bounce
one or two of his Office attaches who are
suspected of disloyalty.

sheriT's Office TO BE Used as the
Primary Basis of Operations
for Reese's
Boom.

Those who thought that Oar Reese,
Fred Schiffmann and Eli S. Warner, in
booming Van SAINT for the governorship,
were insired by purely altruistic motives
have another guess
Reese is to go to congress, ii the plans
OF the coterie go through And if they do
not go through 1t will not be on account
of any timidity on the part Of the con-
| spirators. The war cry was sent forth
last night through the columns of the
official organ of the gang, the Dispatch
All heads in the sheriffs Office y i'll
drop Jan. L. The Dispatch did not go on
to say, however, that this office is TO he
used to take care of Ramsey county
to promote the aspira lions of Reese in
return for the support he and his )mpar-
ion, Schiffmann, gave Justus IN The
Fourth ward, the ward, by the way, that
ruined Peter Van Hoven.
1t is the inference, of course, that If
Van SAINT shall be lucky enough TO get
into the state house he VIII so distribute
the patronage that Reeses friends in lie
other counties of this congressional t;,s-
trict, as it is, may be formed by the COM
ing legisla ture, will be taken care Of, all
with an eye to Oar succeeding Stevens
two years from now.
When Ed G. Rogers withdrew from, the
race last summer, it was with d de mite
understanding that he was TO succeed
Stevens, who would not be canddate
for denomination in 1902, the fact being
that he merely wanted vindication at
this time.
Rogers, however, reckoned without his
host, and the Warner-Scnlffman Reese
school of politicians. are preparing. to est
his political throat.
Warner as oil inspector, in the event
that Van SAINT becomes governor viii be
In position to help Reese along on his
way to Washington, and Schiffmann,
who does not need either the money or
any office for honor, will find in the knit
ing of Rogers a partial revenge on the
Seventh ward for it's assault ON MS am
bition to be mayor last spring.
Tams Bixby, according to report from
Washington, is to be commissioner Of
the general land office, and the under
standing is that, when he leaves, the
reigns of leadership, so far as the distri-
button of the state spoils is concerned,
are to be given to Eli Warner.

Tam Samson was q gray haired vet
eran sportsman, who ON one occasion,
when out moorfowl shooting and feel
ing the weight Of years begin to press
upon him, expressed the belief that the
expedition was to be his last and de-
sired, in somewhat tragic style, that
he might die and be buried In the
moors
Burns, hearing of this, Immediately
composed his famous elegy, In which
he related at length the exploits and
skill Of his hero. ending each verse
with the plaintive line, Tam Samson's
dead"
Some one having told Samson that
Burns had written a poem-"a gey
queer ane"-about him. he sent for the
poet and in something like wrath asked
him to read what he had written. On
hearing the recital of his exploits he
smiled grimly and seemed by no means
displeased. But" he exclaimed, I'm
mo- dead yet, Robin. Wherefore should
ye say that Pm dead? Burns retired
for few minutes; then he returned
and recited to Tam the following verse,
which he had composed in the inter-
val:
PER CONTRA.

Tell ev'ry social. honest billie

Writes a Card In Relation to Release of

United States District Judge Brown
at New York reviewed in an interview
Friday the grounds of his decision in
refusing a bench warrant for the re-
moval to Georgia of B. D. Greene, J.
F., E. Il. and W. T. Gaynor, indicted
in Savannah in connection with the
frauds carried out by former Captain
Carter. Judge Brown said, among
other things:
''The reported surprise and anger
on account Of my decision have, in my
mind, nothing more back of them
than passionate feeling down south
that they would like to take these men
by the neck and hustle them off to
trial down there. There is a feeling
that they are swindlers and should be
brought to trial there at once, where
the witnesses against them are. F"

NEW USE or EXHAUST.
How Waste Steam May Run Al Auxiliary
Pnglne.

For many years It has been known
that the steam engine did not utilize
all its energies. The ordinary high
pressure engine which discharged It's
exhaust steam into the air used hardly
more than . per cent Of the value Of
the fuel burned under It's boiler. The
compound engine, which condenses It's
steam andreturned the warm water to
the boilers, used only - to 10 per cent.
Of the fuel energy Here ingenuity
seemed to stop until n device was In
vented for using the heat Of the ex-
haust steam to eyapOrate another
liquid, which, having a lower boiling
point than water, required less heat
for the process than does water.
This process Is the joint discovery
OF g. Behrend, a Hamburg engineer,
and DR.. Zimmerman Of Ludwigshaf-
en-, and It gains as high as 80 per cent.
additional motive power without in
creaslng the expenditure Of fuel. The
liquid they chose for evaporation Is
sulphurous acid, which is cheap, easily
obtained, and is so oily that 1t lubri-
Gates the inner working surfaces Of
the machinery without corroding them
The steam passes into the surface con
denser or vaporlzer, in which the cool
ing medium, instead Of being water Is
liquid sulphurous acid, the boiling point
Of which is so low that the liquid Is
decomposed Immediately by the heat
of the exhaust steam, liberating sui
phur dioxide gas. This gas passes
over into the cylinder OF an auxiliary
engine, where it's work is done as in al
ordinary steam engine. Then the sui
phurOus vapor enters the surface con
denser, is condensed to liquid by colo
water tubes and Is forced by q puml
back into the vaporizer to do It's wOrl
over again.
With a fairly economical COMPOUND
engine, using 1917 pounds Of steam 70
each indicated horsepower hour, hal
an indicated horsepower can be pre-
duced In the auxiliary machine 70
every indicated horsepower develope

, A London special says: Lord Rob-
erts reports that FIVE companies of
British troops have been captured by
the Beers rear Bethany.
The following is the text Of his dis
patch to the war office announcing
the capture of Eve companies of his
own troops
"BLoEMFoNTEN, Thursday, April 3.
Another unfortunate occurrence has
occurred, resulting, fear in the cap
kure Of party of infantry consisting
of three companies of the Royal Irish
Fusiliers and two companies of the
Ninth regiment Of mounted infantry
near Reddersburg, little eastward of
Bethany railway station, within few
miles Of this place. They were sur
rounded by q stronger force of the en-
envy with four or Ave guns.
3 "The detachment held out from
2 noon April Sd, until April 4th at a.
M, and then, apparently, surrendered,
for it is reported that the firing ceased
a. that time Immediately after
heard the news, during the afternoon
of April Sd, ordered Gatacre to pro-
coed to Reddsrsburg from Springfon-
tein, his present headquarters, with
all possible speed, and [ dispatched
the Cameron Highlanders hence tc
Bethany. He arrived at Reddersbure
at 1880 o'clock yesterday morning
without opposition, but could get nj
news of the missing detachment
There can be no doubt the whole
party has been made prisoners"

y brought the populaoe with quicl
turn from the rejoicing over the queen

A prominent member of the cabinet

the correspondent of the Associate
