Representative Burleigh of Maine tells
in the Washington Post a good story
about moose that was captured I'M in
the Pine Tree state. The animal was
brought into town and exhibited under a
tent, an admission of 10 cents for indi-
viduals and % cents for families being
charged. One day there came in from
the country man and his wife and their
fourteen children. The family ranged
from tall and lank boy down to a babe

The primary election to take
place next Tuesday involves but
one contest among democrats.
Sheriff E. S. Tanner is candi-
date for denomination, with Henry
Bentfeld as his opponent. Mr..
Tanner is serving his first term,
and the custom has been that the
party should nominate for a Sec
ond term an official who has
proved worthy. No official can
please everybody, but NJ. Tan
ner has certainly been as good a
sheriff as Morrison county: ever
had. There is no indication Of
any general dissatisfaction with
him 10 his party or among the
people. His name on the regular
ballot will be. helpful to the whole
ticket, and for this reason should
receive hearty support, ss~~well
as because he is finishing but one
term, and no real good reason has
been shown, for breaking the Gus
tom. Every man has a right to
file for any Office, and it is right
that this should be SO, but the
party at large is the final Judge.
Under existing circumstances Mr.:
Tanner should be endorsed at the
primary.

Professor Campbell of the Lick OBJ
servatory reports that the star called
XII Geminorum, which has long been
5 known as variable, is in reality
double, but it's two components are so
close that no telescope is able to sep
arate them, and their existence is
proved by the shifting lines in the
spectrum. The variations in bright
ness, he thinks, can only be due to the
attraction between the two stars rails
ing immense tides in their molten or
vaporous globes, which, through the
effects Of compression Or otherwise,
displace the spectral lines.

Experiments which the weather
bureau has recently concluded will
soon bear fruit in new system of
signaling far out at sea intelligence
Of impending storms. The signals will
be powerful lamps placed upon lofty
steel towers. The lights will be visible
for twelve miles in any direction, and
the line of one hundred and eight of
them, which it is purposed to erect
along the Atlantic coast, will give a
continuous series of warnings visible
for nearly two thousand five hundred

we have talked with many, who
