Madison, Wis, Dec. 12.-At the SEN
ate caucus, although no official action
was taken, the sentiment was practi-
cally unanimous that Governor LaFOl-
lette should be elected United States
senator to succeed Senator Quarles.
There were sixteen senator's present,
and as result of the caucus the La
Toilette forces will organize the sem
ate, and, as they have an overwhelm-
ing force in the assembly, this means
that all LaFollette measures, includ-
ing commission to regulate freight
rates, will go through.

as candidate for chief clerk of the
senate in favor of John NJ. Nelson. of
this city, a member of the LaFollette

trail committee

Natives of the northeast coast Of
Scotland observe a curious custom at
funerals. After the burial service the
coffin is carried outside the house and
placed upon the two chairs on which it
had rested within doors. AS soon as
the pallbearers lift up their burden and
begin their journey to the graveyard
these chairs are at once thrown sharp
" on their backs. In this position they
are kept until the interment has taken
place, when they are taken indoors
again. Any attempt to place the chairs
on their legs or to take them in before
the proper time is at once frustrated by
the relatives of the dead.

Reminders of the NSOOrs.

Concerning the dwellings in the Ar
gentine Republic a traveller writes:
''Wherever there was collection of
houses l was greatly struck with the
character OF the architecture-like
Arab or Moorish villages, one great
wall without windows surrounding
them. The country is very quiet now
safe enough for bevy of schoolgirls
to travel it by day or night-but still
the peculiar architecture remains. At
Negra Muerta, where we camped, there
was only one large building, once the
headquarters of the estancierO,' who
owns hundreds of square leagues of
the surrounding country, but now ten
anted by his manager, superior sort
Of half breed Spanish Indian. with his
family. There was the huge square
outside wall without any windows of
any kind, one arched doorway and the
inside house or houses built against
the outer wall and facing into patio
"a most Moorish looking place. Truly
the occupation of Spain by the Moors
has left it's deep markings; they ex-
tended across to the new world, in
fiuencing today even the customs OF
the Indians of Spanish South America"

A LOcust's Breathing g.

Hold a locust between your fingers
and watch the breathing movements
of the body. Professor Packard says,
"There were sixty-fve contractions in
minute in a locust which had been
held between the fingers about ten
minutes How does that compare with
the number of breaths you take each
minute? Insects of swiftest flight
breathe most rapidly-St. Nicholas.
