Not So Great.
 Washington, Jan. s.-Reports of great destitution and threatened starvation among the inhabitants of Fairbanks. Alaska. having reached the War Depart ment through communication from the Mayor of that place. General Funston. commanding the Department of the Co. lumbia, was directed to make an inves- tigation and to take such steps as would conserve the public peace while aftordins relief
 The Mayor specially requested that sta- pie supplies be not given. but sold to these people from supplies on hand at Fort Gibbons. While General Funston was carrying out these instructions. Cap tain O. A. Nesmith. stationed at Fort Egbert, wired the department that he had received information from Lieutenant Rickard. who was at Fairbanks as late as December B that he neither saw nor heard of any famine: that there had been a shortage of supplies occasioned by an early freeze but that freighting had been going on steadily and that game seemed plentiful.
 Under date of the 4th instant General Funston telegraphed the War Department that he had instituted inquiry as to how many rations could be spared but sug- gested that able bodied men who would sit down at Fairbanks and await govern ment relief are entitled to little consid- eratIon. since within ten days they can reach Dawson, Rampant. Tanana or Eagle. where there are abundant supplies for sale. A.s t.si 4s

, Washington. Jan. 6.-Rear Admiral Taylor. chief of the Bureau of Naviga- tion. to-day urged the House naval af- fairs committee to establish naval training station on the Great Lakes for which an appropriation of s25O.0O0 Is rec commended by the department. Such a station it Is said. would tend to induce the enlistment of better class of sea- men from the interior. and would de- crease the number of assertions. as ca- dets would have an opportunity to test seafaring life before actual enlistment. It also would tend to produce more sea faring men for commercial lives.

The nPsiaon PartH.o


 Dr. Wiley, of the Bureau of Chemistry of the Department of Agriculture, IS making ready his report on his ''pisol squad" the young men who some mouths ago volunteered in the cause of humanity and science to eat what the chemistry sharp set before theua., the bill of fare embracing food articles containing fscll- tious chemical aids to palatableness. The dector has gwen his vicarIous feeders a vacation of three weeks Christfnas and New Year holiday ostensibly to permit them brief season of festive enjoyment like other folks accustomed to night mare-Iaden portions of plum pudding, but in reality, 1t is said, on account of the depleted health of the sacriflcial grub school, who have been for several weeks crammed with d diet of salicylic acid in growing doses.
 The chemical boarders' will not eat regular" for some weeks. and they are planning many a reckless feed. The class has not taken with any degree of martyr like enthusiasm to the acid diet which they esteem no more than they did the borax menl. of last winter.
 Only one of the 'p'ison party has a good word to say for the salicylic acid fare, and he is an erstwhile victim of rheumatic ailment which the doses ap- pear to have almost driven from his sys- tenn.
 Said another of the acid-soaked persons: '"They have had the whole class on the salicylic diet for the last s.x weeks, and they continued the time of giving the dose two weeks longer than usual. About the time this rheumatism man began to get better the rest of us began to feel worse. We grew more i'll. while our com rade declared he had about shaken off his rheumatism and laughed at us. Now that we are on a vacation we are getting better and better"

' MONTGOMERY. ALABAMA. THURSDAY, JANUARY q 1904

uary G. will elect a successor to United States Senator Louis E. McComas. whose term will expire March 3, 1905. The leEls- lature has 10l members. of whom n are Democrats and 30 Republicans. The prin- cipal work of general outside interest 10 be undertaken by the legislature Is a re- vision of the election laws. tt5E7
 As the Democrats have more than two thirds of the membership. they can pass whatever measure they please. It Is not doubted that 1t will be so framed as to assure the State permanently hereafter to the Democratic column. When the campaign was on. with. all the influence of the Roosevelt administration to help them. the Republican leaders warned the voters of the party that Democratic suc- cess in the coming election meant per manency of rower for that party; that the election law would be so changed as materially to curtail the negro vote.
 Senator Germans bold defiance of the administration and his challenge to al the powers with and behind the negro strength of the negro balloting, but the white people of Maryland rallied with old-time fervor and gave the Senator and his party a brilliant victory.
 Another important work of the legisla- ture, the election of United States Sem ator. will be watched with very general interest. There are half a dozen candI- dates for Senator, but the race is re- garded as between former Governor John Walter Smith and former Congressman Isidor Rayner. Governor Smith doubt less has the better of the contest with Rayner, as he is understood to be favored by Senator German. MT. Rayner Is ex- ceedingly popular. especially in Bal.I- more. where as lawyer he stands amois the foremost at the bar. The strength de- veioped by other candidates may comrli- cate the early decision of the contest.
