Washington. July 29.-That Senator
German will be given the Democratic
nomination for the presidency is the
firm belief of Representative Living
ston of Georgia who has been discuss
ing the outlook with Democrats from
all parts of the United States.
Mr. Livingston said to-day that SEN
ator German was much stronger in
the South. in his opinion. than any
other Democrat. There might be a
few localities in some of the Southern
States, where the preference at present
was for some other man, but he be-
lieved that before the meeting of the
convention the Southern States would
be practically united in support of Mr..
German.
Mr.. Livingston said that his talks
with men from the North and West
convinced him that Mr.. Germans
strength was not confined to the South
alone, but that he was regarded in 9TH
er sections of the country as the
strongest man who could be nominated
Mr.. German is regarded in all parts of
the country as a man on whom all
elements of the Democratic party can
unite. In the opinion of Mr.. Living
ston he will DOLL the full strength of
the Democratic party if he is nomi-
mated Further than this there are EVIL
dences that he would bring to the sup
port of the Democratic ticket certain
elements of the Republican party that
are not satisfied with Mr. Roosevelt.
1t has been apparent, almost ever
since Mr.. Roosevelt succeeded to the
presidency, that certain elements of
the Republican party were very much
dissatisfied with his course. While the
party leaders all agree that he must
be Tenominated with few exceptions
they would secretly like to see him re-
placed by some other man. They real
ize, however. that this cannot be done
and while they will acquiesce in his
nomination, their support of him in the
campaign cannot be as hearty as it
would be If some one more acceptable
10 them were at the head of the ticket.

SIR WALTER ON GHOSTS.
'T Do Not believe My Own Expert
ence Would Convert Me-"

GhCc OOhNCEN
One of the letters written by Sir
Walter Scott to his valued friend, Mrs.
Hughes, published in the August Cen
fury, says, among some personal chat:
Dear Mrs. Hughes Your rec
objection is very vivid, & 1 doubt not
sufficiently correct; still it falls short
of legal testimony; the recollection of
our childhood on such a topic as that
of ghosts & COLLINS is apt to be
strangely mixed with exaggerations, a
sort of embroidery which your fancy
is so apt to lend such strong colour
ing as misleads even it's owners. Our
law has wisely l think introduced a
prescription of crimes, from the idea
that human testimony becomes unset
tied by the lapse of time & would be
directed more by the imagination than
the absolute recollection. l therefore,
my dearest lady, paying the utmost
credit to your testimony, yet the
occurrence of so old a date must not
alter my doubts; it Wilma believe for
me. 1t would be very curious to see
the Ghost diary properly certified, but
on my word l cannot believe it ever
to have had an existence; the story is
never told the same way, though there
is a'kind of general resemblance.
l do not believe my own experience
would convert me; though 1 might
tremble l would reverse the part play-
ed by the devils and certainly not be-
lieve. l wish you would write down
Mrs. Ricketts, story as we'll as you re-
member it. Every such story on re-
spectacle foundation is a chapter in
the history of the human mind. Still
l think the balance of evidence prepon-
derates so heavily upon the side of
imputing all such appearances to ma
tural causes that the mysterious stories
Wilma believe for me-" I am sorry
for it; 1 Liked the thrill that attend
ed the influence of these tales &,
wish 1 were able to wander back
through the mazes of Mrs. Radcliff's
romances. But alas! l have been so
long both reader and writer of such
goodly matters that

thoughts

Thus it is that druggists are tempted
to substitute the cheap limitations of
Peruna for Peruna. 1t is done every
day without a doubt.
We would caution all people
against accepting substitutes for

"Calamities, such as recently occur
red at the bathing beach in this city,
are not common occurrences" said a
well-posted meteorologist to a repre-
sentative Of the Evening Star day
or two ago.
ION the contrary it is very unusual
that the electric fluid causes such
happenings. Considering that every
summer is marked by more or less of
just such atmospheric disturbances the
comparative infrequency of fatal conse-
Quences attending them is deserving
of mention"
Such an assertion coming from the
lips of a man who has made thunder
storms and their outcome something
of a study may have the effect of calm
ing the trepidations of many persons
who, at the first reverberations of
thunder in a black sky begin immed-
lately to seek out a place somewhere
that will afford them sure shelter from
any possible danger. Some folk are
under the impression that women are
more timid than men when the ar
tillery of the heavens begins to roar
and the lightning zigzigs all over the
skies, but the proba bilit;es are that
the fears as we'll as the fearlessness are
about equally divided.

House, who is a genuine femme Ajax.
She is one of the fairest of the many
fair daughters of Mississippi and her
conduct when just such storm as
caused the hapless events at the i'll

is a source of wonderment and un-
easiness as well to her many friends.
She is, on such occasions, more than
apt to seize upon such ~~assne of van
tage as an open window, Il porch or
some other favorable point from where
she can survey a storm in all it's sub

The demand for Christian literature in the mission stations throughout the world is greater than 1t has been for three quarters of a century.
