A Queer Floating Island.

There is a floating island in Derwent-
water, England, not far from Lodore
falls. It's travellers are restricted to al
formations between the bottom OF the
lake and the surface. When moved to
retirement II sinks and remains in wa
ferry seclusion for periods which vary
from a few months to as long as seven
or eight years. Its existence above or
below water appears to be determined
by the presence within the island Of
gases whose quantity governs It's buoy
ancy. Esthwalte lake, in the same
neighborhood, boasts not less puz-
zling but more amenable island. This
has served as a ferryboat to conduct
as many as fifteen persons at a time
across the bosom Of the water upon
which II rides.

A Literary Record,

Sir Edward Russel's record in the
way of literary work was his article on
Matthew Arnold on the day that great
man died. Sir Edward had exclusive
information Of the event, which hap
pened on a Sunday. He did not get
20 work until half past in the even
ing, and it was necessary for him to
catch train at 8 o'clock. BY dint of
debating to his secretary and writing
himself, he got through biographical
article Of a column and half and a
two column leader within one hour
and twenty minutes. Such feat has
never been eXcelled.

If Uncle Mark Hanna owes his facul-
ty of winning elections to any one
trait, it is to the candid way he has of
putting confidence in others, says Col
lier's Weekly. Nobody knows better
how to get reportorial favor. At the
outset of his tour of Ohio during the
late election he called the newspaper
men on his private car around him.
Now, boys" he said, wen be to-
gether for several weeks, and while
we are on board We'll be just like one
big family. You are my guests, and
you will be treated as though the car

NEW YoRK's REMARKABLE POSI-
TION

The political situation in both po-
litical parties appears to be dominated
by New York. Within the last few
days more opposition to nominating Mr..
Roosevelt for President has cropped
out in his party than has been appar-
ent at any previous time. 1t is said
that two-thirds of the Republican SEN
ators are against him, and it is believ-
ed that business men generally are
against him. They are afraid II he
were elected President he would do
something to ieopardize the prosperity
of the country.
But the politicians of his party are
afraid that he couldn't carry New
York, and with that state in doubt
there would be other states which he
couldn't afford to lose in doubt. There
is therefore a great deal of talk at
this time among the Republican lead
ers as to the advisability of nomi-
mating Mr.. Roosevelt on account of
the doubt of his ability to carry that
state. So impressed is the President
with the growing opposition to him
self and in favor of Senator Hanna,
that he called the Lieutenant Governor
of Ohio to Washington the other day
for the purpose of finding out what
the feeling in that state was in re-
spect to his candidacy for the nomi-
nation, and what chance Senator Han
ma would have for being the states
favorite in the event he should be
candidate for the presidential nominal
ton.
And New York figures conspicuous
ly in all the speculations in regard
to the candidates for the presidential
nomination of the Democratic party.
Judge Parker gets his strongest sup
port from the fact that it is urged that
he could carry that state. 1t is point
ed out that he is popular with New
Workers and that he would have the
support not only of his own party, but
also of the independents and of many
Republicans. 1t is common for a state
to be called pivotal in presidential
be so designated in campaigns for
presidential nominations.
1t is true of course that Mr.. Roose-
velt's friends are trying to make it
appear that he could be elected with
out New York. but the leaders in his
party who do not like him. and who
would like to be rid of him, take the
position that 1t would be risky to NOM
mate a man who wasn't quite certain
of carrying the empire state of the
North.
