CLEVELAND MAY TAKE STUMP.
Believed He Will Make at Least One
Speech for Parker.

A dispatch from Esopus last night says:
Ex-President Grover Cleveland will proba-
bly, take the stump for Judge Alton B. Par
ker. The latter has received a letter from
Mr.. Cleveland, and although he would not
disclose its contents, 1t Is believed that 1t
entirely satisfies the recipient. His influence
will be added toward a united democracy in
the coming campaign. He will make at least
one speech, 1t is believed.
William F. Sheehan will not accept the
craftsmanship of the democratic national
committee. So much was learned indirectly
yesterday through friend of Mr.. Shee-
hans. He feels. it is understood. that he can
be Of greater service to Judge Parker and
his party in an unofficial capacity.
Mr.. Sheehan and Justice MacLean were
the guests of Judge Parker at Rosemont
during the day. 1t is believed that they dis
cussed the craftsmanship Of the national
committee. Up to the present time 1t is not
known that man has been selected for the
place. 7ry.
The leaders Of the party feel that the po-
sition during the coming campaign Is one
which requires very capable man. 1t will
be filled with exceptional discretion and
care. Up to the present time no selection
has been made. 1t is EXPECTED that Senator
James X. Jones. chairman of the national
committee. will call meeting of that body
soon, probably within the present month.

Ants Like Ice.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
There is very popular belief that the
snail ant cannot stand much cold.' said
man who lives up town, but the idea is
entirely wrong. There may have been a
time when the ant could not endure low
ten peratures. but that time has passed If
1t ever existed. The fact Is that the ant
seems to rather like the cold, II I may
judge from experience at my own home.
They have for some time been in the habit
of making the ice box their headquarters.
They simply live there. 1t is the one IA
vorite spot with them. Nor are they the
least bit inclined to shun the ice. Up to
very recently l had thought that the ant
was in the habit of burrowing deep into
the ground in order to escape the r1gors
of the winter. But there is nothing In this
old idea. Why, they are so fond OF cold
things that they use the ice In my re-
frigerator as a sort of skating place They
spend the days skating around on the Ice,
ing around as If they had some important
task to complete before the sun came up.
What temperature can an ant stand! Ihat
what would like to know. From the ease
and manifest comfort they display Whie
rambling over the ice at my place, Would
Judge that zero would not daZe them 10 any
considerable extent I suppose they nave
educated themselves up to the point Where
they can endure the cold without much
suffering. 1t may be duet the exlgencles
of the struggle for existence. one o! Tue
things necessity in the ceaseless fight FOR
life. But, whatever the cause OF ~; you

Failure in Cancer Research.
From American Medicine

from American Medicine.
Failure In cancer research is the Iamen-
table result beroaned I'm all countries and
by all Investigators. Although certainly
discovered" a score Of times. the patho-
genie organism and the pathogeny are as
elusive as ever. At recent meeting Of the
directors Of the London Cancer Hospital.
Dr. Herbert Snow. the senior surgeon, said
that he and his associates had studied the
disease as, to the best of their knowledge.
1t had been STUDIED nowhere else in the
world they had attacked it's problems with
the microscope in one hand and the scapel
or the sethoscope in the other. They had
labore1 by every means In their power to
substitute for the mass of chaotic confusion
and traditional fallacy. which had hitherto
Erevailed-a genuine and precise cancer
science as a sure foundation for all future
research And in this attempt they had
failed-rtterly aud miseraby failed. And
now on all hands they found schemes Of
cancer research. Those also must faii-must
of necessity fail-until some step was taken
to clear away all thetraditional lumber OF
past centuries and to formulate precisely
what was known with certainty. what was
known only imperfeetly and what yet re-
mains TO be ascertafned. Cancer is not one
but many diseases as !. includes ten genera
and thirteen species. Each variety is estab-
lished by differen cause or chain OF
causes. Each probably requires separate
line of research.
He haG long thought that proper scien.
tihc investigation oe the physiological
reasons for thosr remarka BILE diversities re-
ferring mostly 10 the action of the lymph
glands on the cancer protoplasm, would as
suredly far advance tn" practical knowledge
Of cancer and might even lead up eventual
~ to the ideal non-surgical cure. But he
heard no rumor of any such contemplated
inyestiga ton. At present all was cropping in
the dark-or little more. Is there. then.
something wrong with the methods OF re-
search of the PAL biologists? Has there been
too great reliance upon bacterologic and
laboratory ways. and too little upon clinical
and Dhysiologic observations? 1t seems as
If some obscure COUNTRY practitioner stands
