Where the Hour-Glass is Used.

London Country Life.
 Among things not generally known is the fact that the hourglass is universal. ly used on board the kings ships when the log is heaved at night.
 Every hour the boatswain or one of the boatswain's mates blow on his whistle a peculiar shrill note called the reel. The person in the watch to whom this duty is assigned then heaves the log, a small piece of wood with a sinker fitted in it, and at that moment the glass is turned. Though termed an hourglass generally, 1t is only a fourteen-second glass really.
 As the last grfain runs out the long line is stopped with jerk, which also loosens the lead sinker. The log floats sup to the surface of the sea. the line is hauled in, and an entry made in the book which, from it's containing this among other items of daily and nightly events of the voyage, is called the log bok.

he Is an independent candidate. He out
lines his views follows:
Wilson S. Doan, Chairman, City:
Dear Sir-Having been rendered the
nomination for the important office OF
mayor of the city of Indianapolis by the
convention over which you had the honor
TO preside on May IS, IL seems to me due
the large number of the best citizens OF our
city who were represented at that conven-
ton. that L give at this time a more formal
acceptance of the high honor conferred on
me than / was able 10 do verbally on the
occasion of the convention.
THE nomination came to me unsought
and somewhat unexpected, as | have been
known as an independent in local politics,
and have been ardently in favor Of an in
dependent citizens ticket in the coming
city election.
There should be neither a Republican
nor Democratic nor Prohibition way OF
administering the municipal affairs of a
city. The only motive of every city OFF,
cial should be to secure an honest and
economical government, and an impartial
and rigid enforcement Of all law. State
and national issues should have no place
in city campaign. The city offices should

crossings should he secured without delay,
but the proper methods should be deter
mined after careful investigation, without
prejudice or fear or favor.
49, We must recognize the fact that our
city is facing serious fuel problem. The
gradual failure OF the supply of natural
gas makes the careful consideration of this
question imperative. The furnishing Of gas
to consumers in bulk, as formerly, seems
to be now impracticable, IL not impossible.
But this should not mean such leniency to
corporations offering TO furnish fuel gas as
to make the consumer the victim of unjust
charges under the trying emergency. 1 am
in favor of a carefully protected ordinance
that will secure TO the consumer no charge
greater than the actual cost of furnishing
the gas, with margin sufficient to give the
supplying company reasonable profit on
the actual investment. With this question
taken up at once and carefully considered
without prejudice, and with only the in
terest of the consumer and strict justice to
the supplyer in question, it should not be
difficult to reach a satisfactory agreement,
and furnish gas fuel to the consumer at a

and cooking.
II am opposed to allowing the gas COM
panies to tear up the streets to remove
opposed to allowing them or any other
company to furnish artificial gas through
these pipes without first securing a fran
chise for that purpose which shall fully
safeguard the interests of our citizens
Since l am the only independent candi-
date for mayor whose election is possible
under our present election law, L respect
fully solicit the vote of all of my fellow
citizens who wish a clean city, physically
and morally, and who desire an economical
business administration in the interest of
all the people, without any regard what
ever for the interests of any political party
or organization, and without the least at
