Governor Pennypaoker Of Pennsylvania
is not the only Governor who has
issued call for special session
Of the legislature and furnished ii
with a number Of topics for proposed
legislation. The latest is Governor
Ia Toilette OF Wisconsin. The latter
includes In his call the subject Of
primary elections and a change in
the ballot laws. The Governor Of
our neighboring State has been re-
quested TO bring this matter before
the special session OF the legislature
II he does not do this he viii not be
needing the widespread wishes OF the
people Of Pennsylvania. The present
. ballot is Objectionable in Pennsyl-
s vania and justly So It is cumber-
some and hard to understand. It Is
the duty Of the state to provide as
simple ballot as possible. Dela-
ware is interested in this matter too
and although we are not to have a
special session OF the Legislature at
the next meeting something should
be done along this line.

.LUCKENBACH HAD
NO CREW ABOARD
Big Steamer Towed Round
From Philadelphia to New
York Yesterday
SURPRISE PARTY SURPRISED
Special to The Evening Journal.

New Castle. Nov. 24.-The steamship
y. l.. Luckenbach. which recently dis
charged cargo Of East India mangan-
ese ore at Girard Point Philadelphia,
was towed down the river yesterday en-
route to New York, where she will
take on a cargo.
The Luckenbach's crew was dis
charged in Philadelphia and the own
ers concluded that it was cheaper to
send for one Of their own tugs to tow
the vessel around than to ship a new
crew. When the vessel passed New
Castle she was under tow Of the tug
Edgar Luckenbach. but beside the cap
tain and mate had no sailors aboard.
The steamer was recently changed from
an oil carrying craft to a general mer-
chandise vessel at the yards of the
Harlan and Hollingsworth Corpora
tion, Wilmington.
SURPRISERS WERE SURPRISED.
A surprise masquerade party was
given last evening at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Peter G.. Madden. which was
participated in by a number of we'll
known people in this city.
i The party assembled at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Newlove, at 8 o'clock
and from there proceeded to the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Madden. Shortly af-
ter they had entered the house a
strange woman" clad in a costume
made OF the comic sheets Of Sunday
newspapers, put in an appearance.
much to the surprise OF the surprisers.
When masks were removed, however
I it was found that Mr. Madden was the
female impersonator. He had learned
of the surprise party and determined to
take part in it himself. Music was
furnished by the Hushebeck orchestra
augmented by Eugene Chase. who play
ed a number of choice selections on the
cornet.

Cincinnati Wants WaddeII.

Cincinnati. o.. Nov 24.-If President
Hermann can get Connie Mack to let
him 60 Rube Waddell will pitch for
Cincinnati next season. and there is
no certainty but what the deal will be
arranged. Mack has offered to let
Hermann have Lave Cross. for whom
the Red magnate does not care, but to
all of Herrmanns argument when Mack
was here a few days ago the willy Phil
adelphian merely said that he would
give Cincinnati as good a chance as
anybody if he decided to let Wadden
out Mack says "Rube" is a great man
and willing. and too good a drawing
card to release without a large con-
sideratlOn, and Hermann says he will
make any reasonable offer, being very
anxious to get Waddell. II is believed
it is more question of price than

The TORPEDO .RoAr

II HOSE who followed the course OF
i the Russo Japanese war must
have observed what an important part
the torpedo boats played IN the sea
lighting. Despite the fact that these
small boats did such good service, it
IS reported that the Board OF Naval
Construction at Washington is not in
clined to increase the country's supply
Of these small craft. 1t is a well estab-
lished fact that during the war the
Japanese torpedo boats proved them
selves extraordinarily emcient and that
they aided materially IN winning the
complete victory obtained In the battle
OF the Sea OF Japan. Had It not been
for them large portion Of Rojestven-
sky's feet would have got on and
found safety at vladivostok.
u seems as II the United states with
its large stretches OF coast on both
oceans. dotted with numerous cities
could use a large number Of torpedo
boats is that they can be quickly con.
that vessels OF this type are not liked
by many naval onoers. because they
are uncomfortable 10 inhabit. are not

and AFFORD little opportunity for dis

TT IS evident that President Roose-

that three rear admirals are among
the officers composing the court martial
now in session.
Ii has been clearly brought out In
the testimony that the cadet code"
which prescribes fist fights under cer-
tain circumstances. has been regarded
by the students at the naval academy
as paramount TO the official regulations.
More than a score Of these oombats,

ful witnesses. None Of them hitherto
had been followed by fatal results; and
there has been nothing advanced to
show that serious or permanent dis
ability had been inflicted on combat
ants before the Merlwether- Branch
light.
As a matter OF fact the chances Of
grave injury in a contest under prize
ring rules between two trained and
hardened young athletes has probably
oeen less than the chance OF injury on
the football field in matches which
have been attended by thousands OF
respectable and enthusiastic citizens. II

Of killing his antagonist.
Nevertheless It is to be remembered

The American public will not seri-
ously dispute the statement of Secre-
tary Wilson that it favors the purity

that the purity Of the article is de-
stroyed In order that additional, profit
may so to some one other than the
consumer. Il can readily be seen that
the people lose at both ends of the
bargain. state laws have been effect
i've In some instances. In PENNSYLVANIA
many dealers have been punished for
selling preserved sausage. but Il is pos
sible that many others have not been
brought to justice. But sausage is not
the only food adulterated. Foreign
substances are declared by chemists to
have found their way into many other
articles found on the ordinary table.
So carefully Is this adulteration carried
on that Il Is not always discovered un-
tl the party who profits becomes care
less through continued success.
Without considering the moral phase
OF practice that allows a man to cheat
his neighbor, the evil effects Of adul-
teration might we'll be considered a
field for national legislation. What the
