Republican Success. Certain.

No matter who is the candidate OF
the Republican party, there is no fear
whatever that there will he any con-
siderable detection of either colored
votes or In the ranks OF labor. organ
lied or unorganlzed. When men are
out OF employment or have been SUBJ
jectcd to n reduction of wages there
Will always be certain amount Of
dissatisfaction, which may be made
manifest at the polls, but this dcfcc-
tion VIII be as Insignificant this year
as 1t has been In the past. Under
present conditions there Is no prospect
whatever of the election OF n Demo-
cratic president, and not even the
Democrats themselves expect or claim
this. There nre. however. a few wild
claims made that the next house OF
representatives win be Democra tic.
but no figures are given out. While
n few districts may be lost which tho
Republicans now hold, they are GER
tain to gain some which they lost two
years ago II Is not expected that the
next house Will have large majori-
ty, but that 1t will have n substantial
working majority there y no doubt

A LITTLE LEARNING.
Some Amusing Blunders Made by
English School Children.

Here are some amusing blunders. or
''howlers." made by English school
children: Q. How were soldiers In ear
ly times different from those of today !:
A The, weren't: they had big darck
eyes AMI long black hear. "Tch diem
is the motto on the Prince of Wales
features" THE Dutch and English
after the armada struck medal; Je-
hovah blew. and they were scattered
on it, John Baliol was persuaded to
rebel and fed to France. where he
afterward died In mental agony" In
% Il. G. Julius Caesar crossed over to
Britain and conquered 1t. and in "a
B. c. he crossed over again to drive out
the Danes: this shows. therefore. that
he laid the foundation of the French
language and French civilization and
also made Italy safe from any attack
from the barbarians." "Hamilcar has
a touring show. panorama. etc. and
acrobats in the Curzon hall. Birming
ham" Cicero was a Grccian histo-
rian: he led the 5000 Greeks after
Nenephen was killed"
Socia! questions are sometimes treat
ed after this fashion: "ln one of the

and tea leaves" 'In the houses of the
poor the drains are in fearful state
and quite unfit for human babitation."
I'm nearly all poor houses the land
lady lives In the center of the room
keeping tenant in each corner" THE
best way TO improve poorhouses would
be TO put n thick plank on the floor
and cast iron beam on the ceiling"
The Bible provides some quaint in
stances: wv hen Lots wife looked back
she was turned into pillar OF cloud by
day and pillar of fire by night" The
city of refuge was heaven" Amos
was a very doleful person or an opti-
mist" "a syna gogue was not used as

BURNING A DIAMOND.
The Experiment as Made by Davy and
Faraday.

Faraday.
That diamonds will not only burn.
but viii blaze. was proved as long ago
as 1914 by Sir Humphry Davy and
Michael Faraday. The experiment was
carried ont at Florence. where the two
scientists were visiting the great Duke
of Tuscany. whose burning glass was
the medium through which the sun
was induced to operate. This burn
ing glass consisted OF a couple of con-
veN lenses. distant from each other
about three aud half feet. the large
lens beirG some fourteen inches in
diameter. the smaller about three
inches. The diamond rested on rod
of platinum which had n cup shaped
receptacle at the top. pierced with holes
to admit OF free circulation of gas.
This rod was fixed in the center of a
glass globe of twenty-five cubical
inches capacity, exhausted Of air and
filled with pure hydrogen.
Intense heat was brought TO bear
upon the diamond when II was ex-
posed TO the sun. the second lens great
ly reducing the focus. In the course
of three-quarters of an hour IL was
necessary twice or thrice to cool the
globe Then IL was noticed that the
diamond was slowly diminishing and
becoming gradually Opaque. Suddenly
II burst into flame. They removed the
stone from the focus. and It blazed
away merrily. Ii glowed brilliantly.
with n scarlet light incliuing to pur
pie. and continued to burn for about
four minutes.
The glass was then cooled and the
diamond again submitted to the action
OF the sun. Again II blazed. but not
more this was repeated. and then the
diamond was totally consumed. This
was the first occasion on which. so far
as is known. a diamond had been seen
TO burn.-Chlcago News.
