Soapstone Fibers.

The discovery a few years ago ae
Prof. Boys that fused quartz can be
drawn into exceedingly fine fibers, whisa
are superior to all others for ma1y
laboratory purposes, has been followed
by Prof. Shenstone with similar exper-
ments with soapstone. When highly
heated, soapstone melts into a clear
glass, which can be drawn into fne
fibers, possessing all the qualities e.
elasticity and resistance to chemical ri :
agents that characterize quartz fibers.

BONAPARTE EXPLAINS.
Makes Public information Concerning
Politics in Maryland.

Washington, Oct. 3.-Concerning the
action of the Republican convention at
Baltimore. of which he was chairman
Secretary Bonaparte has written a let
ter. publication of which he has AUTH
orized. he says, as a means OF dissefni-
mating information as to the actual sit
uation in Maryland. The letter said in
part.
In the campaign now in progress in
Maryland, the Democratic ring relies
for success as it has relied for success
in many campaigns during the past s5
years upon appeals to race prejudice.
To in1ame this prejudice it has fire.
quently circulated and it circulates now
many utterly false. and, indeed, ridicu-
lous stories as to what the Republican
party would or might do if entrusted
with power by the voters.
Some Of the preposterous tales are
to the effect that a Republican legisla-
ture would compel by law certain forms
of social intercourse between the two
races, as for example by establishing
compulsory attendance at mixed schools
or obliging white children to be taught
by colCred teachers. Others hold out
the alarming prospect that Republic
can governor or mayor would appoint
a vast multitude of colOred officers with
no regard to fitness or exDediency for
all sorts OF public positions. OF course.
when We had a ReDu blican legislature
and Republican governor nothing of
the kind was Zone and the present Re
publican mayor of Baltimore has made
no such selections for public office.
Stories oe the first class form part
of an outcry against social equality,
stories of the second class give such
color as they may to an outcFy against
negro domination; the resolution of the
Republican convention desclaiming any
desire or purpose to promote either Of
these chineTical evils must be under
stood in the light OF the surrounding
circumstances as above set forth. In
Maryland it has been so understood and
has attracted little or no comment;

NELSON IN NO HURRY.
Hasn't Yet Announced His Candidacy
for Senator.

Frank Nelson, ex-state superintend-
ent OF education, has started of on a
two months lecture tour without MAX
ing announcement OF his candidacy for
United States senator. Mr.. Nelson is
one of the receptive candidates. He
says he has had assurances of support
from all but one of the congressional
districts. He is likely to get into the
race after his return to Kansas in No
vember.
In speaking of the movement started
by Governor Hoch, Mr.. Nelson says:
fThe people OF Kansas believe in the
enforcement of law, and in Governor
Hoch they have a man who dares to
enforce the law. In the contest, which
is now being waged for the supremacy
of law and decency and order Governor
Hoch has back of him the moral sup
port of the best people of Kansas. Esv-
cry man who believes in law enforce
ment and who has the good name OF
Kansas at heart should stand with
Governor Hoch in the work which he
is doing

PUT THEM ON STREET.
Mayor Davis Plan to Punish White
Horse HIends.

Nightly riders in the white Horse
brigade" they are planning to subject
you to indignities. They talk, forsooth
of Stacking you and putting you to
ignOble labor, sweeping the city's
streets. And if this is not enow they
chant glibly of a whipping post and
cat o. nine tails Why wouldn't it be
q good scheme to put -shackles on some
of these fellows who persist in getting
drunk all the time" asked Mayor w.
III. Davis OF Councilman Howe and
Horn at a meeting of the claims and
accounts committee. There are some
Of these fellows who are no sooner out
than they come back. We turn them
loose in the morning and before the
evening they are arrested and are back
IN Jail drunk. They break a little
rock but they ought to have some sort
Of labor that would make them feel
their disgrace more clearly and which
would keep them from coming back
right away 1t would keep some of
these fellows too from coming in if
they knew that we would put them to
work on the streets"
Said Councilman Horn: well I
tell you what ought to be done to
them, they ought to be tied to a post
and give them a good flashing, that's
what"
you couldn't do that" broke in
Howe, There's no law which permits
us to do that"
"Of course we couldn't do it. 1
know that But I was just saying, -
returned Councilman Horn.
well I don't see why it wOuldn t
be a good scheme to set these fellows
to work on the street" said the mayor
digging back at his first project
II never did like the idea of making
g display of punishment for crime.
Some OF these people have sisters,
fathers or mothers and its a disgrace
for them and they feel it, said Mr..
Hows.

Legal News I wonder il the city at
tOrney really needs that paper. 1t
seems to me the city hasn't much need

forgotten.

accounts at the New York fiscal
agency. When State Accountant Row

obtained some valuable information by
