Washington, Feb. l2.-Champ
Clark returned to the House from
Il lecture trip in Pennsylvania this
morning. He knew of the De
Almond announcement for the
Senate upon his arrival and was
not displcascd. What is giving
Mr. Clark more concern just now
than the announcement of new
candidates is the disposition shown
by some counties to hold early
primaries. Mississippi county has
set its primary for March |, and
Ripley county for March -. In
the meantime both Clar kand De

aud Governor Stone is FREE h.

not likely that Congress will ad-
journ before June II and it may
possibly hold until the middle of
July or August |.

going on said Mr.. Clark this
morning. when nothing is do.
ing, however, | am going to try
to slip away for IA day or two
Judge De Almond is able, brill
liant, honest and courageous.
Governor Stone is able aud cOur-
ageOus. | am not certain that it
would be good taste for me to say
anything about Judge De Ar
mond's candidacy and his an

long enough for public comment
upon it. Consequently | have no
definite opinion as to its effect.
He probably will carry some coun-
ties that Governor Stone would
have carried and he will probably
carry some others that would

to say what | have always said IL
bout Judge DE Almond, that he

The observatory Of Toronto has
made an extended series of observa-
lions on the height of clouds, which
has just been published. Two observ-
ers were placed at stations about n
mile apart and could communicate by
telephone and they simultaneously
measured the altitude OF the same
point of the clouds under observation.
The highest cirrus cloud was at an
altitude OF 1900 metres 10000 feet
and moved with u velocity OF 2i0 kilo-
meters (l49 miles) per hour; the lowest
was $500 metres (26.J0O feet high and
moved IS kilometers Cos miles) per
hour. The mean height OF cumulus
clouds was 1867 metres in summer,
1896 metres in winter, and the velocity
was only 16 kilometres (about 10
miles) per hour.

A TILTED LOVER.
Wants His Presents Back
A Legal Question.

The following is late dispatch
from Macon. Mo-:
a Macon county jury will have
the perplexing problem to solve as
to whether young man has the
right to forcibly reclaim presents
given an erstwhlc sweetheart.
David Connolly, aged 10, was ar
rested today on u warrant charg-
ing assault and larceny. The
prosecuting witness is Il German
girl named Mary Flum, aged 10
years.
For several years the two had
been keeping company, and every
body thought it was case of true
love running smoothly, until they
reached the legal age to marry.
David gave his intended a hand
some album, aud his picture was
assigned to prominent position
on the front page, next to bona
tide reading matter" He also
gave her Il ring and pair of nick
e-plated skates. Mary vowed she
would ever be true, aud she was
until Otis Hurt came along. Soon
after the first meeting OTIS pict-
ure went into the favored position
in the album, and David's was
showed down along the advertise
ments. Otis tied on the skates
that another lover had given the
flaxen- haired maiden from the
Naterand, and Otis hauled her
bob sled up to the top of the hill
for her to coast lightning-like
down to the coal switch.
David couldn't stand for this.
He met her on the highway last
Saturday as she was returning
from the lake, with her shining
skates thrown jauntily over her
shoulder with a strap. The eX-
lover reminded her of her tickle
ness and demanded the return of
the skates. The little maiden
stoutly refused. Then David, "by
force, threats and intimidation" "
the complainant says, took EN-,
and Mary went home crying.
David says he bought the skates
with his own good money, and
the consideration expressed was
unswerving loyalty of his sweet
heart; that she has broken the
contract and the property by right
reverts to the original owner. The
defendant will ask that the jury
be selected from young men, whose
lover days are not SO far back that
they cannot recall trials of a SINH
lar nature in their own experience.
and he hopes they will give him
the benefit of such sympathy as
his unfortunate little love affair
may cntitle him to.

Sunshine at Work.


On the farm of f. b. Cowgirl near
here, will be operated next month
a novel device for putting the
Kansas sunshine to work. This
will be solar motor such as has
been used in experiments in Ari-
IONA and California.
The motor consists of n large
radiator or reflector, thirty-three
feet i'll diameter at the outer edge
and sixteen feet at the inner,
lined with mirrors which focus on
boiler that occupies the position
of n handle to the widespread UNI
brella of the reflector. The re-
Hector is moved with the sun by
clockwork, being suspended on a
high derrick. The heat is so in
tense near the boiler that wooden
poles are quickly set afire.
The operation of the device is
simple. 1t is brought into focus
by hand after sunrise by the push
ing of lever. Indicators sh ow
when the true focus is obtained
and in an hour $50 pounds of
steam is generated. The engine is
then started by turning the throt-
tie valve and the plant may be left
to itself. The clockwOrk makes
the reflector follow the sun all day,
the oiling is automatic, the boiler
is filled in the same way. Being
attached to pump such II motor
can irrigate over 100 acres. In
the experiment here the work will
be done at wells that have never
been pumped dry even by the best
gasoline engines. 1t is believed
that with power to harness the
sunshine of Western Kansas with
a machine that will work all day
and cost nothing for fuel great re-
suits will be obtained. The winds
have proved too variable for de-
pendence, but with the underflow
as the basis of the wells in the
valley and the steady work of the
motor, equal toa ten horse en-
CINE, water ought to be abundant.
The entire scheme of mounting
has been pronounced by compe-
tent mechanical engineers to be
extremely clever and such as to
meet the demands both of security
and of easy operation. There are
no delicate parts anywhere, but,
on the other hand, the structure is
a substantial framework of steel,
its members being of sufficient
strength to outlast the deteriora-
ton of rust for at least twenty
years and to possess at all times
large factor of safety.
Many people examine photo
graphs of the motor, and even
the device itself, then innocently
inquire for the boiler 1t looks
insignificant in comparison with
the rather stately proportions of
the reflector. When the reflector
is out of focus the boiler is seen to
be perfectly black, but when it is
swung into focus it is instantly
transformed into II cylinder of
glittering silver, SO brilliant as to
be somewhat trying to the eyes.
1t is probable that many lead
ing farmers and representatives of
the Agricultural college will be
present to see the first experiment
with the motor i'm Kansas.
