at Columbus for reelection TO the
senate and for the Republican NOM

PREACHERS AS CONDUCTORS
clergymen, College Graduates and
Professors Run Pittsburq Cars.

Pittsburg, Nov. 26.-Officials of the
Pittsburg Railways company, which
operates all the street car lines in this
city, announced that during the last
two weeks % college graduates, four
college professors and two clergymen
applied to the company for employ.
ment
The college graduates could get
nothing else to do. The professors
had lost their positions and could get
no other employment as teachers,
while the ministers were young men
who had failed to be assigned to
charges All of the applicants were
given positions and every one pre-
ferred the rear end of the car to a
job as motorman.
I'VE have excellent reports from
every one of them" said an official of
the company "The ministers partic-
ularly are doing we'll One is on day
turn, while the other has a car which
leaves the downtown district soon
after midnight and passes through the
worst part of the city. One night a
crowd of toughs on the car started a
fight, but the minister-conduetor re-
stored order before anyone was hurt"

CLOCK IS NEARLY PERFECT.
Almost as Steady and Reliable as the
Sun Itself

Cleveland, Nov. 26. A clock has
been installed in the observatory of
the Case School of Applied Science in
this city which is so nearly perfect
that it has attracted the attention Of
the Smithsonian Institute at Washing
ton.
AS another mark of distinction
tests have proved that the mechanism
is so accurate that the clock will not
vary more than fifteen one-thous-
andths of second from the exact
time in "a hours. This is considered
to be nearly as steady and reliable as
the sun itself. The clock will meas
ure the minutest fraction of a second.
its only rival in accuracy is said to be
a similar timepiece in Berlin.
The construction of the Case School
clock is so delicate that for protection
1t is surrounded by glass jar, which
is partly vacuum. To protect the
clock from disturbance the winding is
accomplished by electricity. The in
strument is used almost exclusively
in astronomical observations.

VIII Keep All Mills Running.

At a needing last week in New
York city the Eastern Bar Iron as
socation decided to keep all mills
running so long as the demand for
bar iron does not fall below 25 per
cent of the normal volume. The as
sociation embraces about 80 iron
concerns and met to discuss existing
business and financial conditions. The
demand for bar iron has fallen off
somewhat since the money stringency
began, but the founders believe there
is likely to be an increase of orders at
any time, The iron is needed, they
say, but future orders have been cur
tailed and buyers just now are trying
to limit their orders to immediate
needs.

Dangers of the Revenue service.


The officers of the internal revenue
service make little fuss over their ac-
complishments. The world scarcely
hears of them unless they have had Il
desperate hand to hand light with
mountain desperadoes which has re-
suited in the death of several OF their
number. But day after day and night
after night they go about their work
calmly, quietly, in constant danger of
death from Il shot from some ambush
ed moonshiner or blockader. Yet these
men are an absolute necessity for the
safeguarding of the country's interests,
and they deserve much credit for their
hard task, scarcely appreciated by the
great mass of the people.-David A.
Gates in Metropolitan Magazine.

CUBA'S ENUMERATION
First Step Toward the End Of
American Intervention.

Hearst Held For Libel - Second Thaw
Trial - Game Protector Coe Dis
n,lssed-Foraker lndorsed For Pres
ident-Will Keep All Mills Running
Swift Justice.
With the completion of the enum-
GRAFTON of the population Of Cuba
there has been accomplished the first
step in the direction of the termina.
don OF the American intervention and
the re-establishment of the Cuban re.
public.
While officially described as a cen
sus, this enumeration was actually an
enforced registration of voters, the
determination of the population of the
island being of scant importance COM
pared to that of registering all persons
entitled to the electoral franchise, in
order to insure the purity of the cleo
ticn of the next Cuban president. No
pains have been spared TO accomplish
this, but pending the difficult task OF
tabulation the results probably will
not be known for some weeks.
To even speculate on the outcome of
the next election is futile owing to the
confusion consequent on the dissen-
sions in the Liberal party and the un-
defined attitude of the Conservatives.
A year ago there is no doubt the Lib
erals would have had an overwhelm-
ing victory and that Alfredo Zayas
would have been elected president.
Now the Liberal party is hopelessly
divided between the followers of Jose
Miguel Gomez and Zayas and an ex-
cellent opportunity is afforded for the
Conservatives to organize and nomin-
ate leader who will command the re-
spect of the country.
The new electoral law has been COM
pleted and now only awaits the ap-
proval of Governor Magoon before be-
ing promulgated. Therefore if tran
guilty Is maintained, which there ap-
pears to be no reason TO doubt. moth
ing stands in the way of carrying out
the present program of the govern
ment, which is to hold the municipal
elections in May or June and the
presidential election in the following
December thus paving the way for
the Inauguration of the president in
May and the withdrawal of the Amer
lean troops in July.
A singular feature of the present
situation is the utter apathy with
which Cubans appear to regard the
preparations making for the restora-
tion of their republic. At no time
since the intervention began has po-
litical discussion been so languid
