II was the great eclipse Of August Il,
1860, that turned Tycho Brahe into an
astronomer. He was in his fourteenth
year at the time, d Danish boy OF noble
origin, and had been destined first for
the army and then for the law. But
the accuracy with which the eclipse
was predicted impressed him with the
belief that astronomy was a divine
thing, and thenceforward he devoted
his life to IL. The debt of astronomy to
Tyeho Brahe, not only for his own
work. but as the man who shaped the
genius Of Kepler. can scarcely be over
estimated

Made No Mistake.

The Democrats of Virginia have
made no mistake in choosing their
standard bearer. In selecting Hon.
Claude A. Swanson they choose a
man Of known worth and often
tried ability. For fourteen years
he has been fighting and striving
for the success of Democratic prin-
ciples. That he is a strong man
before the people is amply demon
strated by the fact that in the recent
primary contest he received a ma
jority of 5000 over the combined
votes Of his two competitors, and a
plurality of $4,000 over one and
%, 900 over the other.
The Virginia Republicans.
prompted by Roosevelt and his
administration, are preparing to
put forth their best efforts in the
approaching gubernatorial cam
paign. 1t looks as if they might
have been admonished that unless
they did some real fighting, other
than among themselves. the pie. "
from the National Counter, would
cease to be forth coming. At any
rate they have done their best.
They have selected their strongest
possible man as their candidate for
governor, Judge L. l.. Lewis. for
merly of Culpeper county. The
Judge Is n great man for getting
there and landing good fat offices.
However, in the present instance,
he Is going to find himself striving
against the real thing, as persona

In the State knows better than Mr..
Swanson the weak points of the
republicans in general. and the
Virginia Republicans in particular.
His personal experience. in the
many contests that he has had with
them, has given him the informa-
ton. His campaign will undoubt-
edly be waged in an aggressive
manner, and the result, hich Is a
foregone conclusion. will prove
the Virginia people not yet ready
and willing to turn their affairs
over to an administration by the
same men whom they so ruthlessly

Women and the Public Schools.

article on Women in Profess
sions," by Miss Elizabeth Howard
WestwoOd. Miss Westwood runs
over the field of those professions
INTO which women enter, showing
that there are now very few in
which they have not proved their
capability. Speaking of the educa-
tlonal field, which is, as ever, one
OF those most entered by women,
she says: Some OF the most re-
markable educational work is being
done by women in connection with

A Doubtful Thomas.

BY a decisive vote as we all know
Mr.. Thomas Staples Martin of
Scottsville. was last week made the
nominee of the Democratic party
for u. ). Senator No graver mis-
take from party standpoint could
have been made. Mr.. Martin stands
for nothing Democratic. He is
against control of corporations, he
Is for high tariff, he is for gold.
and ne Is for centralized govern
ment. 1t is these things which
made him SO popular with the Re
publicans in Congress and with the
Executive. How does Mr.. Martin
procure the favors he so loudly
proclaims himself able to obtain
BY his fealty to every principle
which the Republicans advocate.
When Gov. Montague said "Ifap.
preparations are what we seek we
had better elect Republican" he
should have called attention to the
fact that we were doing even bet
ter than electing a Republican, we
were clecting a man who, under
the guise of Democray. was ready
and willing to cOncede as many
Republican measures as some of
the more conservative Republicans.
MIR. Martin voted money to help
bull the Railway station in Wash
ing'on, and in doing 50 asserted
that such thing was customary.
When. where and how much money
of the people has been thus turned
in to build railway stations. But

pockets free passes over every rail
