SONG OF THE CONTEST

As a certain indication of the inter- est winch is growing in The Republi- cans subscription contest. Ben Kim. so surcharged with enthusiasm that ht has burst into poetry as follows: October thirteenth, nineteen-O-six The Republican opened its big con- test, And we all enlisted. ten and six To see who could rustic subscriptions
 best. We all made a dash for the first quar-
 ter mile,
 Harry Kerr coming out at the post You ought to have seen that great big
 smile,
 But he offered no sign of a boast. As We neared the half mile down the line.
 Still playing our subscription game. Byrda Shott went up like a climbing
 vine.
 And the rest came in rather lame Now we pull for the three quarter mile. People fiigure Harry Kerr a Dnlin-
 baugh, But the rest are wearing a confident
 smile,
 And the audience "hollers" Hip, Hip,
 HurTah, One more quarter and the race will be
 won.
 There are some must lose. but eight
 will win; By some brilliant daughter or some
 bright son, But he who loses commits no sin.

A PROFESSIONAL EXPERIMENT

ER-Professor Wilson of the agricui- tural experiment farm has secured q Zulu gatling gun for use in the vicinity of the station farm. Were he any other resident of that vicinity it would be presumed sthat he was preparing to have a little sport in the game belt but it is said by his friends that he is no nimrod and the only use they can conceive that he will have for the weapon is to experiment with it as d rainmaker in the interest of agricul- ture.

BOSTON, December S.-When the battle
ship Vermont. from the yards of the Fore
River Shipbuilding and Engine Company of
Quincy, successfully completed all her gov
eminent trials at sea this afternoon, includ-
ing four-hour run at full power, twenty
four-hour endurance test and the usual
turning and backing maneuvers, her entire
forward deck, from stem to bridge, was
incased in ice as the result of northwest

Upon reaching the city tonight Rear Ad-
miral Hemphill, chairman of the naval
trial board, notified the Secretary of the
Navy that the behavior of the ship had
been excellent. In the four-hour full-power
run yesterday the Vermont averaged 1888
knots an hour. In the Neutrality-suspicious.
test the average speed was 17.43 knots
an hour and the horsepower II, 800.

ON THE DISTRICT BILL
COMMISSIONERS CONFERRING
WITH COMMITTEES OF CONGRESS

The District Commissioners yes .ecday be-
gan their conferences w. tn the subc Jmmittee
of the House committee of appropria ions
on the District appropriation BILL and made
great progress in the consideration of their
estimates for the next fiscal year. The
subcommittee members, Mr.. Gillett Of Mas
sachusetts. Mr. Gardiner of Michigan, Mr..
Madden of Illinois, Mr. Burleson of Texas
and Mr.. Fitzgerald of New York, have
become so familiar with the District bud
get, through the exhaustive inquiries which
they made last session, when the report
of the hearings covered nearly thousand
pages, that i. was not necessary for them
to go into such detail at this session.
Therefore. while giving the Commissioners
fall opportunity to present their arguments,
they had few questions to ask, and at
the close Of the day much ground had been
covered, and it was plain that an early
repor. uBea. the bill would be made.
Urge Estimates in Full.
The Commits toner's advocated the appro-
priatien of al their estimates. notwith-
standing the recommendation of the Sec
should be reduced $685., 600, so as to bring
them to the amount of the appropriation
fund. The Commissioners pointed out that
the estimates were made on the prime pie,
followed oy the Commissioners for five
years of Distinguishing between ex.r2or-
binary projects of municipal Improvement
and current expenditures, and that the Dis
trict revenues were ample to NEE. the
entire budget. provided such distinction
was kept in mind and provision made for
properly financing the Districts share of
the cost.
