Artificial Cultivation of Sponges.

An interesting Investigation now
being carried on in Florida by the
bureau of fisheries has for its OBJ
ject the discovery and development
of methods by which the valuable
sheep wool sponge may be cultiyat-
ed artifcially.
The method which promises the
most satisfactory results is that of
using cuttings. Large sheep wool
sponges are cut into small pieces,
which are fastened to an insulated
wire fixed in the water, so that the
sponges are supported few inches
above the bottom. These small bits,
placed at close intervals along the
wire, soon heal and form an organic
attachment to it, and very soon be-
gin to grow. 1t is too soon to pre-
dict Just what the results will be,
but the indications are, so far, very
encouraging, and it is believed that
the time is not far distant when the
sponge fisheries of Florida will be
vastly increased in productiveness
and value. - National Geographic

We have repeatedly asked the
Star to tell us what Hill was doing
in the TT. Henry club at Wheeling
with the paid attorneys and lob
byists of the railroad company.
The Star answers us in this past
weeks issue by saying, cts none
of your Id Democratic bust
ness!" That's beautiful language,
to say the least. It's so conclu-
sive. 1t simply means Hill was
there for reason he dare not tell
the public, and if that is so, and
we believe it is, then he is not fit
to be our Senator.

The Star is trying to make the

The Star is trying to make the
use of whiskey in the late primary
election respectable by intimat-
ing whiskey and beer were drunk
by people who attended the Dem
ocratie county convention. we
have no doubt but that there were
delegates to the Democratic coun-
ty convention who drank both
whiskey and beer. They would
have done so had it been a Sun
day-school convention. They drink
whenever they have a chance.
But of this we are certain beyond
any doubt, w. E. Kirchner nor any
other candidate purchased whis-
KEY or beer to get votes. Chris
Riggle did not spend penny for
booze nor did any other candl-
date. No man who knows Kirch-
ner will believe for a moment he
would indulge in such methods to
secure the best office in the coun-
ty. Another thing, the Republi-
can candidates signed a solemn
contract and agreement to not use
either money or booze to secure
votes in the primary election. All
signed this contract except Und-
erwood. The Stars attempt to eX-
cuse the use of booze by the Re-
publican candidates falls very
flat when it intimates such men
as Kirchner and Riggle used
booze to secure a nomination.
Neither of these gentlemen use
whiskey, ale or beer. In every
thing that is for the good of the
people, that is honest, decent, ben
efcial and for the upbuilding OF
our county, you will find Kirchner
and Riggle on the side of the good
things and no where or at no time
have they been patrons or sympa-
thizers with booze in any form or
shape. Mr.. Kirchner has been in
the mercantile business ever
since he came to this county a
good many years ago. He has
conducted his business in an hon
orable way. He has the conf
dence and respect Of all who have
had dealings with him. When the
last effort was made to get rail-
road to Middlebourne, and from
which effort we secured the elec-
trio railroad from New Martins
vile here and will get the second
road down along the river through
this county, Kirchner, by his, pres
ence, counsel and cash was one of
the foremost workers in that eff
fort. He spent his time and his
money to get this road. He is an
honored member of the Masonic
orders. He is a director in the
first bank to be organized in Mid
dlebourne. He is interested and
an earnest worker for the support
of our county fair. He is found
working, using his influence and
means IN every enterprise for the
good of the county. But he is no
boozer, no patron of saloons, and
won his nomination without using
booze or cash.

Is, 900 troops between November and

The Daily Telegraph, however, does

evidence that the dispatch above sum-

later. November still remains the
latest date of reliable news from Port
Arthur.
The correspondent at Toxic of the
Times says all accounts from Port Ar

for the stubborn defense which is still
being maintained there to General
Fock who commands the Russian left.
Leading Toxic newspapers, the

A BELOIT WEDDING.
DIR ID. S. O'Brien and Miss Cora
Bragdon United for Life.

Beloit. Kan. Nov. 16.-Scarcely has
there ever been witnessed in Beloit a
more impressive wedding ceremony
than the one which occurred Tuesday
at St. Johns church, when Cora Eva,
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin
Bra don, became the wife of DR.. D. S.
O'Brien.
Although the hour was an early one
many friends and relatives gathered
at the church to witness the holy rites
which made this couple one.
The church was decorated with pot
ted plants and chrysanthemums.
MeSsrs. Fred Lutz and Tom Elan
merry, acting as ushers, seated the
guests.
Promptly at six forty-f1ve the bridal
party entered the church, and to the
strains of Lohehgrin's march, pro-
ceeded to the sanctuary, where Father
Heitz attired in his robes, with four
altar boys awaited them.
: The bride and groom were attended
by Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel O'Rourke,
made one by the impressive ceremony
of the Catholic church.
The beautiful new church lighted by
candles, the sweet singing of the
Sisters of st. Joseph, at the dawn of
a perfect day, appeared as a happy
omen for their future.
At the conclusion of the mass, rib
bons were carried by the ushers to the
front, icrnGing an aisle for the bridal
party to PASS out, where they entered
carriages and were driven to the
brides home, a wedding breakfast be-
ing served to the bridal party.

train for an extended trip through the

DR.. Woodhouses elected from an
other witness that the Russian war
ships whose searchlights were turned
on the trawlers did not fire.
Skipper Haines, of the trawler
Moultman, said that at o'clock in
the morning after the attack he saw a
battleship three ship lengths away.

fired on the tra:wlers.
The boatswain of the Moultmein
also saw big ship between AIS and
5 80 the morning of October %: She
was much bigger than a torpedo boat
but he could not say if she was a
battleship. -sv
DR.. Woodhouse cross-examined this
witness, but he stuck to his story,
adding that the vessel was not British
but was particularly like the one
which was firing most upon us the
night before"

Hungate Is Improving.

Reports from the Kepley farm near
Fort Scott are that Otis Hungate
elected county attorney of Shawnee
county at the last election, is improv-
ing. Hungate went through such a
strenuous campaign that he was I'M
nerved and some of his friends feared
that he would collapse. His condition
is accounted for by the fact that it was
his first campaign (and Hungate says
has 1ast) and he worried a good deal
especially when it was reported to him
that he would not get more than three
majority in the fifth precinct of the
Fourth ward. Hungate made a hur-
ried trip to that precinct and then
found that there were only three votes
in the precinct. He got them all.
Such things served to worry him and
as there were no ducks near Topeka
he was advised to go to Fort Scott to
hunt

WILL GET NEW ONES.
There Won't Be Anything Shoddy
About Shawnee Election Certificates.

County Clerk-Purchasing Agent
Newman will issue some elaborate
certificates of election to the county
officers, township officers and road
overseers elected in Shawnee county at
the last election. There are some old
certificates on hand in the clerks Of
flee but they have printed in the name
OF John M. Wright, county clerk, in
stead of the name A. Newman.
Commissioner Sterne thought that
Newman could scratch out Wright's
name and write in his own and the
county would save money by using the
old certificates. Newman thinks that
the successful candidates will want to
frame their certificates of election as
county officers, township officers and
road overseers and hang them in the
front parlors along with the notices
on the wall; SO, new certificates in
green and white and gold and with
NeWman's name in Greco-Roman let
tiers Will be secured. The new GER
tifcates are expected to be even greater
works of art than the marriage GER
tificates given out by Probate Judge
Hayden.

ENGINE OUT OF COMMISSION.
More Trouble on West Sixth Avenue
Macadam.

The work on the West Sixth avenue
road macadam is still progressing and
the members of the board of county
commissioners, under whose direction
the work is being done, are still hav-
ing troubles.
Now the combination traction engine
and roller has broken down. The en-
CINE is used alternately to run the
stone crusher on Martins Hill and to
roll the macadam. When the engine
broke down it was rolling the road II
the engine had been at the crusher 1t
could have been used for power even
after the break down but it was not
there. The commissioners are figuring
on how many teams of horses will be
required to pun it back to the hill and
if when all the parts necessary to
patching the engine are bought If the
Investment will not be so great that a
new engine would be cheaper.

TO PLAY IN KANSAS CITY.
Topeka High School Football Team
Will Go Saturday.

Topeka High school will go to KAN
sas City Saturday for a game with the
Manual Training High school. 1t is
the return game for the one which
was played in Topeka early in the
season, and won by Topeka by a very
large score.
1t is doubtful whether Topeka can
win the game at Kansas City. The
Manuals have been doing hard work
in preparation, and some of their men
who were crippled for the former
game are now back in the harness
The coach is. confident that his team
will retrieve its lost honors. Topeka's
team, on the other hand, will prob
ably not be as strong as it was in the
former game, because several of the
strongest players have dropped out.

They VIII Be Ready I'm a Short
Time.

County Surveyor Rodgers is at work
today in dyke district No. preparing
estimates of the work upon which
bids will be received by the board of
county commissioners.
District No. 8 is north of Soldier
creek and the proposed dyke along
the creek bank is expected to protect
1900 acres of rich farming land. The
dyke will be 726 feet long and will ex.
tend along the north bank of Soldier
creek at a point a quarter of a mile
west of Central avenue and a mile
north of town.
