SKETCH OF SENATOR BANKHEAD

John Hollis Bankhead, recently
chosen by the state of Alabama to
fill the seat in the United States SEN
ate made vacant by the death Of
Senator John T. Morgan, was born
In what is now Lamar county, Ala
bama, September 13, 1912. He was
educated in the public schools of his
native county and on the outbreak
of the civil war he entered the Con-
federate army as a first lieutenant.
He served throughout the four years
OF the war, being wounded three
times. He was three terms a mem
ber of the state legislature and I'm
1887 was elected a representative I'm
congress, where he continued to serve
for 20 years.
In April of last year he was de-
feated in the primaries by Captain
In the general state primaries he was
Pearson Hobson. Five months later
elected to the senatorial succession.
plan laid down by the state demo-
cratic executive committee. Although
he was opposed by seven OF the most
popular men in the state, Colonel
Bankhead received 4S,362 votes. over
l2,0OO more than his nearest COM
petitor. Shortly before his retire
ment from congress Colonel Bank
head was appointed by President
Roosevelt as a member of the inland

PASSES ARE CALLED IN.
Patrons OF Walla WalIa Street Car
Line Must Pay Cash.

An order will go into effect in a
few days whereby all street car pass
es issued by the Walla Walla Valley
Traction company will be called in,
and no more will be issued, says the
Walla Walla Bulletin. The order is
in compliance with the ruling of the
interstate commerce commission, that
any company doing an interstate bus
iness could not issue free transporta-
ton.
This order will be the cause of
much regret on the part of many of
the citizens of Walla Walla who ride
three or four times each day on a
pass" and from now on there will
be many people walking who have
heretofore found riding cheaper.
City officials and newspaper men
come in under the ruling.

HIGHEST ASCENT BY MAN.

Every so often the question comes
up as to the greatest elevation reached
by balloon. A well known English
student of the weather, Glaisher, more
than 40 years ago made a famous
ascent, but became unconscious when
very high up.
He thought from the reading of his
barometer that during this voyage he
attained an altitude of $4,000 feet. or
trifle over seven miles. While no
one questions his sincerity, the accu-
racy of his observation has been
doubted.
Writing on this subject a few
months ago, A. Lawrence Rotch, an
expert who has done great things with
kites, expressed the opinion that the
feat of which the most trustworthy
record had been made was that of two
Germans, Berson and Surfing. Their
instruments registered an air pressure
corresponding to $4,000 feet or GA
miles.
