Warm Contest in Marion County.

Knoxville. June 10.--The state sena-
torial fight is growing in interest and is
the first genuine contest experienced in
Marion county in twenty years. Nor
mally this county is democratic and the
full strength of the republican vote in
in its primaries has not been tested
within the memory of the younger gen.
Grafton. In the contest for the nominal
ton for state senator III this district,
which comprises Marion and Monroe
counties. there are three candidates
j. S. Bellamy of Knoxville, ]. l.. War
rem of Pella and l.. M. Hays of Knox
VILE. The first two named have been
candidates for some time and the lat
ter only announced the direction of his
ambitions short time ago. 1t is ex-
pressed as the opinion Of a number of
the leading men in this city that Mr.
Hays candidacy is more to assist the
candidate in the eastern portion of the
county than ii is for Mr.. Bellamy. 1t is
conceded that the fight as it stands to-
day is between Bellamy and Warren.
Monroe republicans all concede that
Marion is entitled to The nomination
and whoever wins in the fight will Sc
cure the nomination.

Steamer DUBUQUE DAMAGED.

Muscatine. Ia, June 10.-The steamer
Dubuque, which attracts hundreds of
people to the Muscatine steamboat
landing every time it makes visit
here, lost both it's smoke stacks in ST.
Louis Saturday. So swift was the river
and so high its stage, that the great
boat was tossed about at the mercy of
the waves, and was hurled beneath the
Merchants bridge. Both smoke stacks
We're swept to the decks and the boat
crew considers the escape from other
danger as almost miraculous.

KILLED BY TROLLEY CAR.
He Was Asleep on the Tracks.


 Oscar Brandmeyer of Mt. Carmel, employed as weaver at the New Ha- ven Web company, laid down on the trolley tracks just above Centerville Wednesday night while intoxicated and was struck by vestibule car of the Mt. Carmel line about midnight. His head was badly gashed and he died of the wound at the New Haven hospital at noon yesterday.
 The accident occurred near the en- trance to the cut at g. dark spot on the road, and when the prostrate man was seen the motorman made every effort to stop the car. The car was in charge of Conductor Michael Ahearn and Mo- torman William Collier, and is said to have been running at only average speed. Medical Examiner Joslin of Mt Carmel has not completed his examina- tion of the case.
 Brandmeyer had no relatives so far as is known in Mt. Carmel. He had the reputation of being hard thinker and is said to have often slept out of doors. He, had been boarding irregularly with an Italian family in Mt. Carmel, to whose house he was first taken when in- jured. The family declined to allow him to be taken inside the house. He was then taken to the New Haven hos pital by trolley Medical Examiner Bartlett conducted an examination yes terday afternoon and reported his find- ing in the matter to Deputy Coroner Pond who will hold an inquest to-day.

THE WATER OUSEL's WINTER HOME

THE WATER OUSELs WINTER
 HOME.
 The chosen home of the water ousel is in the rugged def1Ies of our further mountains. He haunts the dancing mountain streams; their sources in the little patches Of dwarf willow near timber line; the lakes of gemlike beauty which they form; their winding course as they go sparkling through the noun tain meadows and tumble noisily down the basins and canons into the foothills, where they widen out and cease their brawing; as high up as he can get in summer, lower down in winter, but al- ways in the mountains, wherever there is open water.
 The sprite of the mountain he, the bearer of messages from the Under water people" to the prospector or big game hunter who penetrates the savage solitudes which delights the birds lit- tie heart. He has no fear of the in- truder, not he. At your very feet, up from the sWirling mountain water he comes, after a submergence that seems impossible to a warm -blooded, breath ing being, hops upon an ice-sheathed boulder, and Tipping away the water from his dark slateblue coat with move ments that almost baffle the eye, so quickly are they made, he bursts into song; sweet, soulful trill, the harmony of the mountains, a song of thanksgiv- ing of life which are his for the taking that is the message.
 When feeding they always seem to me to be under the water more than half of the time. Water bugs, beetles and aquatic larvae of all kinds constitute the grubstake of this mountain rover. Whenever he gets the chance he will eat a few minute trout and eggs, but the old one rustles him away from her spawning place if she catches him near it-reference being had to wild trout. In the spring of 1898, the writer caught 8 trout in the canon of the Medicien Lodge, a tributary of the Paint Rock, that had water ousel or dipper in it's gullet. I would not allow one of these birds about pond where trout were bred, but save for the demands of science, I would as soon think of shooting my faithful old packhorse as 'AAlo o"CCI olii5eI III tuc Iu5SSu IiiOull- tain solitudes which he affects. I have & cherished photograph which shows the winter habitat of the Ameri- can dipper. It shows the dipper at home on Paint Rock Creek, one mile be- low the mouth of the canon in Big Horn County, Wyoming. One can make out the bird with the naked eye on the ice point in the thread of the stream where he is perched, in the act of singing, just as the camera was about to click when the sun peeped out for moment on that bleak February day, I never look at the picture but I seem to hear the sweet notes of the singer, so bold and dauntless, so typical of the West.-For- est and Stream.

KNOWING FIRE HORSES.
How They Learn to Start With tn
 digger and Get the Swing.

How They Learn to Start With the
 digger and Get the Swing.
 The intelligence of fire horses is we'll known. A most knowing animal of this kind is described by Sewell Ford in Horses Nine" The author says of him:
 Other things besides mischief, howev- CT, had Silver learned. Chief of these was to start with the jigger. Sleeping or waking, lying or standing, the sum- mons that stirred the men from snoring ease to tense, rapid action never failed to find Silver alert. As the halter shank slipped through the bit ring that same instant found Silver gathered for the rush through the long, narrow lane leading from his open stall to the poles, above which, like great couchant spi- ders, waited the harnesses pendent on the hanger rods.
 Once under the harness Silver was like carved statue until the trip strap had been pulled, the collar fast ened and the reins snapped in. Then he wanted to poke the poles through the doors, so eager was he to be off. It
 
 could not make two second hitch. With the first strain at the traces his impatience died out. A sixty foot truck starts with more or less reluctance, but when once the tires caught the car tracks Silver knew what ca expect He and his team mates could feel Lanni- gan gathering in the reins as though for full stop. Next came the whistle of the whip. It swept across their Hanks so quickly that it was practical ly one stroke for them all. At the same moment Lannigan leaned far for ward and shot out his driving arm. The reins went loose. their heads went forward and, as if moving on a pivot the three leaped as one horse. Left to themselves. each horse would have leaped at a different instant. It was that one touch of the last and the succeeding swing of Lannigan's bulk which set the time, which made it pos sible for less than four thousand pounds of horseflesh to jump a five ton truck up the street at a, four minute clip

LACK OF COHESION IN HAWAIIAN
 GOVERNMENT.

If there is one feature of the work of the Legislature which strikes the mal- ihini observer as o3out of joint with politics as done elsewhere in the United States it is the lack of cohesiveness of the party men. Not only the Republi- cans, but the Home Rulers, the Demo- crats even seem to lack the strong binding tie that exists in other public bodies of the same nature, in other parts of the country. Perhaps an ex- ception might be made, for the sole Democrat in the Legislature has so far managed to be absolutely consistent.
 It would be hard to find a State or Territory in which the departments of the government are so closely and con- sistently Republican, as is the rule here. There may be a few employees who have none of the loyalty of the man who holds his place ,at the pleasure of chief of the dominant party, which marks his fellow public servant else where, but he is the exception. The de- partments have shown that the men in them are devoted to good government, have worked for it's Success, and the re- cent victory at the polls must be attri- buted in no small measure to this unity of purpose and effort
 It would seem therefore to the outside observer that there should be due to the government something like loyal sup port from the members of the Legisla- ture of the dominant party name and affiliation. This in older countries is shown by upholding the hands of the departments, and doing all that is pos sible for the carrying on of their work. There may be harm done to the work or the Board os Health if the regula~ tons, which are the outgrowth of years Of experience of boards, running from the time of the monarchy to the pres ent, are to be changed at the will of members of the Legislature who have never given to the matter more than the passing thought. It is certain that | if the same minimizing laymen are tr make these rules, there will be few ! medical men who would dare risk thei, reputations and efforts in working on | the Board.
 The danger, to the Public Works D2 partment, as expressed in the remarks of Kumalae, that the Legislature will
 not come to the aid of the Government
 by paying for work done to meet the needs of growing commerce, is no less
 great, and certainly there will never in 1 the future be spontaneous aid given to 1 the Government as in the past, if the
 Wharves constructed by private moneys
 are repudiated by the Legislature | There is a larger question than tkC
 mere one of vote-getting in this uphol1.
