DYNAMITE

Highland Light. Mass. Sept. 1o.-The

mite bound from Wilmington. Delaware.
10 Lake Superior sunk of here during the
night but the entire crew OF sixteen men.
after several hours In open boats riding a
boisterOus sea were safely landed
through the assistance OF two life saving
crews.
The vessel was sighted about o'clock
last night OF the Pamet river life saving
station. She was apparently coming up
the coast under slow steam and against
a heavy northeast sea. When on the sta
tion shortly after Q o'clock she began to
blow whistles OF distress. and burn red
lights.
This continued for nearly an hour when
the lights went out and the whistling
ceased The entire crew OF the Pamet riv-
er station had assembled on the beach,
but were unable TO launch their boat ow-
ing to tho heavy surf. Early In the morn
ing they discovered two boats short
distance off shore and were able 20 hail
them and warn them not to land until
daybreak
In the meantime the life savers at the
Highland and the High Head stations
were notified and both these crews assem-
bled on the beach with their boats.
At daybreak one boat could be seen or
Highland light, but the other had dlSip-
peared The Highland and High Head
crews after several unsuccessful at
tempts managed 10 launch their boat
through the heavy surf and at O'Clock
reached the boat and shortly afterwards
the second boat was discovered a little
further of shore. As both the steamers
boats were crowded the wrecked crew
was taken aboard the life saving boats
and both headed for the beach.
AS the wind had worked around into
the east the life savers made no attempt
TO land at once but went farther up the
cape and managed to reach shore oppo-
site the Peaked Hill bar life saving sta
ton, whore they were assisted In landing
by the crew OF that station.

ALL READY
FOR MAINE
BATTLE

Portland. Me, Sept 1O.-The final day
of the state election campaign in Maine
was a busy one for the workers OF the
four parties. Chairman II. NJ Simpson OF
the state Republican committee gave out
the following statement concerning the
outlook for Mondays election:
I'VE viii carry the state for Mr.. Cobb,
the gubernatorial candidate. by a plu-
rality OF from H. 600 to 1900. We will car
ry every congressional district In the
state by pluralities which will be the
equal OF those which we have had in
previous years when the opposition has
made n hard nght
We shall elect the majority OF the leg
islative tickets throughout the state and
at least ~ OF the 81 state senators with an
even chance for the other four. All over
the state our plurality will be fully as
good as In years when both parties have
made a vigorous campaign. The Demo
Gratis have injected state isues into their
campaign with view OF crowd!ng out the
national Issues and in consequences, the
campaign has been waged more on the
line OF state isues than national"
Or. Edgar l.. Jones OF Waterville. chair
man OF the state Democratic committee
said:
THE Republican claim on the stumT
and I'm the press OF 10, 900 or 1900 majority
Is en- old trick OF theirs OF claiming less
than they expect or ought 10 have and
then being surprised at what they call q
victory. II the people are with them as
they claim, they should have the full ma.
jority OF four years ago, 49, 3S4 or. Their
majority OF 4s2is OF eight years ago. But
we will take for a standard their majority
over the Democrats In the last presiden.
tial year. A single vote that is a gain, one
less n loss"

 "The Mexicans, If they can ob- tain the kind of horses they desire," said Mir. McCauley, ''are willing to pay almost and price. Some of the best teams to be found any where are seen in the City of Mex ico. There is q special demand for horses that match in size and color.

IS IT RADIUM?
J. G. Davies Makes an Interesting
 Discovery Near NOSaIeS.

II G. Davies. geologist and metal lurgist of Juneanu, Alaska, who is mineral commissioner for the dis trict of Alaska exhibit at the Louisiana Exposition at St. Louis, has for d couple of weeks been visit ing in Nogales. The gentleman who is in the employe of the U United States government, is one of the recognized mining authorities of the country. He has discovered in this vicinity some bottles and pieces of glass which have been stained from some natural condi- tion existing in ground. The gen tleman has not determined the cause of the discoloration, but says that it is possible that it may be the action of radium in the soil of this section. Some samples of the stained glass have been sent to the Smithsonian institution at Wash ington, D. C., and to other authori- ties in the United States, asking for their opinlon regarding the cause of discoloration.
 The samples of the glass are tinted a beautiful shade, something between a heliotrope and purple, and very much resemble the radium tints we have seen recently.
 If the glass proves to be colored by rays of the wonderful new ele- ment called radium, some of it will be loaned for the Worlds Fair radium exhibit.
 So little is known about this re- markable substance that even its curative properties are only be- ginning to be tried in the New York Pohlyclinic Medical School and in hospitals abroad.
 If radium should do nothing more than eradicate certain tenaci- ous diseases it will be one of the marvels of the century, but it may do infinitely more if found in sub stantial quantities.
 If it can be proved that Mir. Davies has discovered radium in this section, it will odd much to Nogales' reputation, as the center of a great mineral region and science will have much to thank Nil. Davies for. The gentleman left Tuesday for the coast, taking with him a number of rare and curious samples of the pecuIiarlly colored glass. He will later return to No gales, when he will investigate his covery further.
