chicago, ILL.,, Feb. 8.-Former May
or Carter H. Harrison, who has been
spending the winter in Pasadena. is
expected home within the next few
days. On his arrival the mayoralty
campaign, which is expected to be one
of the warmest that Chicago has seen
In many years, will be on in full blast.
For the first time in the history Of
the city the next mayor is to be chosen
for term of four years. The length
ened tenure is in accordance with an
act of the legislature The next may
or, moreover, will be the first to adj
minister the affairs of the city under
anew charter.
The most interest in the campaign
centers in the fight for the democratic
nomination. Mayor Dunno has form
ally announced himself a candidate
for reelection on platform of oppo.
sition to the proposed immediate set
tlement of the street car franchise
question. He wants the rehabilitation
of the service postponed until after
the municipal election.
Former Mayor Harrison, after con-
siderable delay has finally declared his
willingness to be candidate for the
fifth time, thereby emulating the re-
cord of his father, the elder Carter
Harrison, who served five terms each.
Friends of Harrison appear confident
that he will win out in the democratic
primaries to be held two weeks hence.
The Harrison crowd claim that the
complications that have attended May
or DUNES course on the traction
question have alienated many of his
former followers.
A factor in the contest not to be
overlooked is the Hearst Independence
League, which, though not strong
enough to accomplish much on its own
hook, still possesses sufficient influ-
ence to have important bearing on

She said Stanford White had tried
to kiss her and had begged her to

not. He cried and said she was not
a human being but she told him she
did not wish to have any thing more
to do with him. He had visited her
after her return from Europe on the
