LITTLE WORK FOR SOLDIERS
Miners In Wyoming Valley TOwus
Remain Very Quiet.


Wilkesbarre. Pa. Oct. 11.-Detach
ments Of the Ninth regiment and Ill,
Philadelphia Second city troop were
sent out to the mining towns early il,
the day and returned here after a
couple of hours march. The soldiers
found no crowds gathered anywhere
and the several towns We're reported to
be quiet. 1t has been the custom OF
Colonel DOugherty of the Ninth to
send out companies each morning not
only for the purpose of making de.
mOnStratiOn. but also to give the men
exercise. He said his soldiers are re
spectfully received everywhere.
The chief interest here is in the con.
ferences being held in New York be.
tween the political leaders and the
coal operators and news from there is
eagerly awaited. National Beard Mem.
Der Fallon, who is in charge at strike
headquarters. said today he had heard
nothing from President Mitchell and
did not know when he will return.

1t used to puzzle all thinking people
why poads and rivers do not freeze be-
yond certain depth. This depends ON
a most c,!rio"s fact namely. that va
ter is at its heaviest when it reaches
70 degrees F.-that is. degrees above
freezing point. On Il frosty night as
each top layer of water falls to 40 de
srees it sinks to the bottom; therefore
the whole pond has to drop to 40 de
grees before any of it can freeze. A,
last it is all cooled to this point, and
then ice begins to form. But ice is a
very bad conductor Of heat; therefore
1t shuts off the freezing air from the
big body OF comparatively warm wa
ter underneath. The thicker it gets
the more perfectly does it act as a
great coat, and that is why even the
Arctic ocean never freezes beyond a
few feet in MISUNDERSTANDING Jour.
nal.

TEXAS POLITICAL NEWS.
Judicial Convention Is 10 Be Held at
Austin Today.
STREETMAN's FRIENDS ARE CONFIDENT
Judge w. S. Fly Was Nominated for
Another Term in the Fourth
Supreme District.

Austin, Texas, June S0-The clans arc
gathering for the judicial convention which
is to be held here tomorrow TO nominate
two judges for the Third court OF civil an
peals.
strcetmans friends came In early today
and are confident that he will knock the
plum for the short term. They figure that
he will get It on the second or third ballot.
There is some apprehension Of deadlock,
but 1t is hardly probable, unless some OF
the small counties refuse to make any con-
cessions. Attorney Wallace Of Rockdale
called several of his friends together this
afternoon and they held a caucus for the
Milan county candidate, and said that
Streetman was bound to win. Judge Fur.
man of Bell county is the nearest man TO
The instructed vote in the convention Is
as follows:
For Sam II. Streetman Of Milan county.
Milan, L votes Falls, u; Robertson. 4;
Bastrop, 0; Caldwell, Z; Comal, 80 Hays, &;
Coleman, o.; Hamilton, q; Brown, 4;
Sterling, / Lee, 5-TS.
For John NJ. Furman of Bell county: Bell,
16 votes; Coryell s. Lampasas 8; Mills, s;
San Saba, 434.
For Judge A. $. Fisher of Williamson
county: Williamson, 10 votes; Burnet, q;
Concho i McCulloch, 2; Blanco, 2--26,
For Judge Marshall Surratt OF McLennan
county: McLennan, is votes.
For Judge Frank G. Morris Of Travis
county: Travis, II votes.
Uninstructed; Llano, votes; Tom Green,
2; Coke. Il Irion, /; Runnells, %
Nearly oil OF the delegates ARRIVED In
town tonight and Streetm MS friends are
counting on a victory after the second or
third ballot. He now has seyenty-elght IN.
ructed votes and Coryell county; while
Instructed for Furman on the first ballot,
Streetman was named as second choice in
Corycll and his friends are confident OF get.
ting eight more votes from that source ,
That would give him eighty-saven votes,
and with two votes each from Llano and
Ten Green, which are uninstructed, II will
nut MIN within one vote of the nomination.
While Travis county instructed for Norris,
the delegation Is made up OF Streetman
followers, and II Morris says the word they
will go 10 the Milan county man In 1iry.
There seems TO be a feeling among Ger.
tain delegates TO defeat stneetman simply
because he is an appontee of the governor,
but his lead is looked upon ms being too
great to overcome.
Several caucuses were held tonight.
