WAYS ON A GERMAN STEAMER.
Touring Kansas Editor Tells of Ma
finnal Soa

Touring Kansas Editor Tells of Ma
tional characteristics at Sea.
The German flag flies at the mast
head of this ship. Last year we cross
ed on an English boat There is lots
of difference between Germans and En-
glishmen, and it sticks out in boats as
well as elsewhere, says the editor of
the Hutchinson News in telling of a
trip TO Europe. Wherever the German
gees he has plenty to eat and drink
and smoke. The principal occupation
of lot of stewards is wadding food
into the passengers at every opportuni-
ty. We begin with Il hearty breakfast
in the morning, then have soup at IL
o'clock, an elaborate lunch at l o'clock,
tea at 4 o'clock, dinner at o'clock,
sandwiches and coffee between times
and all kinds Of German drinks flowing
in floods. On an English boat the wom-
en- never Invaded the sacred smoking
room. On the Deutschland they come
in for their beer or their coffee and
play bridge and penuchle. 1t Is the
same way as in the different countries.
And then the band plays! A German
band never wearies In we'll doing pro
vided 1t is supplied with plenty of re-
freshments. Our band begins with q 10
O'Clock In the morning concert, plays
at meal times and In the afternoon and
evening. Sunday morning it woke us
up with the strains of a German hymn.
Every time there is the slightest ex-
cuse for music the band Is there and 1t
does everything from Wagner to cake
walk with equal ability and evident
enjoyment. u
There are 800 people in the first cab
in, including Julia Marlowe. Julia Is
our star passenger and there is con
siderable complaint because she does
not come out and mix with the best of
us On the last voyage John d. Rookie
Teller was lit" John made quite
reputation as a."mixer" and once "set
up small bottle of apollinaris water
to a friend. But Julia sticks to her
.stateroom and Is being talked about.
She probably doesn't mind 1t. really
suppose she is lying around in wrap
per or kimono enjoying the trip better
than coming out and being stared at.
The only person on board who is con-
sidered properly stuck up" is the man
who wins the pool" There are two
kinds Of pools, the hat pool and the
auction pool. In the hat pool ten men
put in 81 apiece and they draw for the
numbers from to 8. At noon the cap
tain announces the run for the twenty
four hours and If the number is SOL the
man who drew the 1 gets the pot Of
$50. In auction pool twenty numbers,
say from $50 to $40, are put up and
auctioned, and then low field, below
$50, and high field, above 54a Last
night the numbers sold for from $14 to
$50 and the field for $S5 and $1O1.
There was fog and a head wind, so
the run was slow, but the man who
paid SIS for No. 533 got 1881 to spend
in Europe. Not many people really put
money into the pools, but everybody
gets interested and the announcement
of the result Is like the finish of a horse
race and man or woman who wouldn't
bet. p. cent Is $50 glad" that somebody
won.

Recent corrections of surveys show
that India is placed on the worlds
maps six hundred feet northward and
21a miles eastward of its true posi-
ton. Attitudes are five to thirty We
feet or more in error, Mt. Everest's
corrected height being 29,141 feet In

An electrical divining rod, claimed
to operate more certainly and scien-
tif1cally than the ancient and dishonor-
ed twig, has been devised by Adolph
Schmid, Swiss engineer. 1t seems to
consist essentially of a glass-covered box
enclosing a coil of insulated wire in
which a slightly magnetized needle Is
free to rotate over graduated dial.
When the apparatus Is placed over
subterranean water, with the axis of
the coil in the magnetic meridian, the
needle, 1t Is asserted, oscillates more or
less rapidly for two to ten and even
up to fifty degrees.
A continuous change in attitudes In
mountainous regions, especially in the
Swiss and Austrian Alps, has been
noted by NJ. de Varigny, a Swiss geolo-
gist. Many villages in the Canton
Valais and in the Bernese Overland
have been raised or lowered from
twelve to thirty feet in the last six
years, and the SUBMITS of mountains
have undergone changes quite as great.
The numerous slight earthquakes are
suspected Of being the chief cause of
the phenomenon, or at least they ac-
company 1t, while they produce avail

A recent proposal to construct a tele-
phone line between New York and San
Francisco has called forth an interest
ing criticism, which shows strikingly
how modern methods Of practically
instantaneous communication all round
the globe make the sun, in his daily
progress, appear as an extremely slow
coach. The criticism was that, even II
the technical difficulties affecting SO
long a line were overcome, the pro-
posed telephone line would possess very
slight Importance, because the business
hours of San Francisco and New York
would coincide for only single hour
each day. 1t is one o'clock afternoon

Republican ''Refcrmers' Control Or

MAYOR WEAVER LOST DELEGATION.


Philadelphia, Jan. 1S.--The regulal
| republicans Of Philadelphia held con
vention Friday for the nomination o.
candidates for magistrate, city coun'
ellis. and school directors and for the
selection of delegates to the state con
vention. Friday night the forty-thret
ward committees met for their annual
organization and each chose a man "a
represent II in the republican city COM
mittee. Not In years have there been
so many bitterly fought ward or dis
trict contests as occurred throughout
the city Friday. Beginning with the
primaries Thursday night when many
participants were arrested In various
wards, the fights we're carried into con-
ventions Friday. In several wards
conventions were Interrupted for a
time and in some instances the disor-
der made by rival delegations was 80
great that the police had to interfere.
Since the defeat of the republican or
CARNATIONS last fall new combinations
have been formed by the ward leaders
In their efforts to get control Of the
city committee. In many Of the wards
republicans who we're prominent In the
reform movement were enlisted In the
fight with the result that the "reorga-
nizers" are now in control and the
old city organization Of which Israel
W. Durham was the leader is practical
ly out OF existence. The city commit
teemen selected Friday night will meet
next Monday, name a new city chair
man and otherwise organize the COM
mittes. The old committee was led
by Durham for ten years.
OF equal Importance with the fight
for control of the city committee was
the election Of ia delegates to repre-
sent Philadelphia in the state conven-
ton which meets at Harrisburg on
June 6. This convention will select
candidates for governor lieutenant
governor, secretary of internal affairs
and auditor general.
OF the ia delegates elected It is
claimed that United States Senator
Penrose and his friends will control
between 20 and 80. Recently 1t has
been intimated that Mayor Weaver
will as a result Of his fight for reform,
be urged as a candidate for the guber-
Material nomination and the statement
has been made that the delegation
from Philadelphia will support his
candidacy. The surprising result Of
Fridays conventions, 1t Is stated,
means that Mayor Weaver is elimina-
ted from consideration for the repub-
lican nomination for governor.

CHARGES CAUSE SUICIDE.
st. Louis Police Sergeant Ends HIS
4 Life Because Of Accusations Of
Having Accepted Bribes.

st. Louis, Jan. 1.-THE suicide Tues
day night Of Police Sergeant George
w. Colestock, who went into o hotel
room and shot himself through the
heart, presumably because his name
had been coupled with partial results
of an investigation into alleged graft
in the police department, caused great
commotion in police circles Wednes-
day. Sergeant Colestock had been in
charge of a district In the locality
known as the bad Lands" for five
years. Recently he was suddenly
transferred to another district. Ac-
cusations were made that he had re-
ceived jewelry and other presents to
protect certain resorts. but no specific
charge was made against him.
Friends Of Colestock have declared
that he was innocent of accusations
made against him and that his sudden
transfer to another district had SO
overwhelmed him with the belief Of
disgrace that he took his life.
A letter was found in his pocket, d.
rected to Chief of Police Kelly declar-
ing he had never received any money
or presents from woman named ONie
Roberts.
