ROSE REELECTED MAYOR
RESULT OF SPECIAL ELECTION
IN KANSAS CITY, KAs.
The Question of His Eligibility 90
the once VIII De Tested In
the Supreme Court.

Kansas City, Mo, May William
W. Rose, democrat, who resigned the
office of mayor of Kansas City, Kas.,
recently. pending state custer proceed
lnss against him for reinforcement
Of certain laws, and who was later
ousted by the supreme court, which
d~isregarded his resignation, was re-
elected mayor by 1900 plurality over
e. Z. Venard, republican, and David
Harris, socialist, at a special election
Tuesday.
The issue of the election was the en-
forcement Of the prohibition and anti
gambling laws. Rose was supported
by the element which believes that the
best interest of the city demand the Ii
censing of joints and gambling halls,
as they maintain that a strict enforce
ment Of the law against such places de-
prlyes the city of its necessary rev.
enue. E. e. Venard, who has been act.
ing mayor since Rose resigned, was
supported by the temperance people.
The socialist vote was light. Many
women voted, and most of them sup
ported Venard.
The question Of Roses right to hold
the office Of mayor will now be tested.
The supreme court held that its action
In ousting Rose rendered him ineligible
to be a candidate for Office again at
this time.

THE SPIRIT OF AUSTRALIA.
Care-Free Democracy Is the Rule
Beyond the Metropolitan
Cities.

To catch the true spirit of Australia
one must pass beyond the metropol-
itan cities, which are but the gates
Of the continent, and where life is
not strikingly dissimllar to that In
many other places inhabited by the
same race, except that democracy su-
pfeme has rendered 1t more care-free,
writes Michael White, In Four-Track
News. The Australian, who is a
great lover of sport and outdoor life,
sees to It that overwork does not de-
prive him Of either. That, perhaps, is
the reason why he is robust In ply
sique, and does not give one the i'm
preston Of being subject to nervous
disorder. In a general way 1t may
be said that the agricultural part OF
the country forms a belt around the
coast, broader By some hundreds Of
miles in the east than the west. From
this region In good years NAM mil
lion bushels of wheat of the best quail
ity are shipped to England. Then you
enter tho domain Of forest and plain
whence comes the wool, Of which the
clip in one year has reached a value
OF 3~l5,O00,00O for the single colony Of
Queensland.

AUTOMOBILES OUT WEST.
Nevada Town Where Water Is Scarce
Displaces Horses and Mules
with Them.

with the extension Of the railroad
Goldfeld has taken a new lease OF
life said Richard Coe, a Spokane
mining operator, who, according to
the Portland OregOnian, had Just re-
turned from Nevada. "Goldheld Is the
Quitting point for all that surround
ing country.
They sell water in Goldfeld the
same as the Standard OIL company
peddles its oil. The water is taken
about town in wagons and Is sold at
about $3.50 a barrel, or 26 cents q
bucket.
Because Of the scarcity OF water and
hay, it Is extremely expensive to keep
horses and mules in that part Of the
country. Every time a horse Is wa
tered it costs rs cents; that Is the
regulation price, and the hay has to
be slipped in, As a result automo-
biIes are becoming quite popular and
are takins the place of the horses and
mules to a certain extent.
Persons going from Goldheld to
outlying points nearly all go in au-
tomobile5, which make regular trips.
There are some enormous machines
there that carry a dozen or more pas
senScrs. At times / have seen as
many Of Is or 20 automobiles stand
Ing in the streets of Goldfeld."

Place in India Where There Are
Thousands of Shriues
Set Up.

Trayaacore, on the southwest coast
Of India, Is notable as one of the few
places where the natives still regard
serpent3 as deities.
There are thousands Of shrines In
the district" said an A~nglo-Indian,
where the superstitious natives make
offerings Of food, burn candles and
chaat hymns to gain the favor of their
scaly idols.
Some Of these shrines harbor
swarms OF snakes, which increase and
multiply without hIndrance. Snake
bites, however, are very rare. Treated
so well, the reptiles become docile and
harmless, and children play fearlessly
In the groves where the snakes
abound.
when, however, as sometimes hap
pens, the neighborhood Of a shrine be-
comes SO oyerrun with reptiles that
there is great danger III treadIng on
them, the surplus snakes are reverent-
ly removed by the priests to other less
crowded localities"

Nevertheless, the fundamental idea
Is not altogether dissimilar. Ma
chine guns are particularly useful for
the defensive, when they NOW down

they are equally efficient in mountain
warfare, where a single such weapon
skillfully posted and hidden at the

large hostile force or by beating with
continuous fire a section of narrow
road over which the foe wishes to
pass, can either intict enormous loss

A PUSH CART GUN

WITH MACHINE WEAPONS.
New Feature of the United States Mil

Increase Efficiency Of the
Army.

Profting by observations Of the re-
cent war In the east, the officials OF
the United States army have decided
to attach to every battalion OF in-

one or more machine guns, and II Is
expected that these weapons will
| operate as powerful auNiliaries in bat

equal in firing power TO 200 men

In the war between Japan and Rus
sia, machine guns were used with ire
mcndous effect by both armies, on
one occasion a Russian battalion be-
ing wiped out by the fire of two OF
these formidable weapons, which
throw rife bullets in a continuous
stream, like water from a hose. In
nearly al cases they were operated In
pairs In order that the outfit might
not be subject to the chance of being
rendered helpless by some accident.
For this reason II is likely that each
battalion and each squadron in the
army win be supplied with two such
guns, which will be regarded ms be-
