In this speech. it is believed, he will ad-
wise them that their only hope for legis-
latiOn enabling the president TO reinstaJe

Republican congress. for no such legiSla-
ton would result from a Democratic con-
gress Not only that. but a Republican
president. he will tell them. is their only
hope of fair treatment. Both the Foraker
and the Warner bills for the reinstate-
ment of the negroes will come up for ac-
ton next December. He will tell them
that il the sixty-first congress is TO be a
Democratic congress. there will be every
incentive for Democrats in the present
congress TO delay action on the Browns
willie affair and in that way their inter

Republican supremacy.

Taft Keeps Mum.

When Secretary Tafts attention was
directed this afternoon to the report from
Washington that he would favor For
aker's reelection 10 the senate, he re-
marked that he would prefer TO say moth
ing at this time concerning il.
Secretary TAFT personally has had no
more than a formal communication with
Senator Foraker since the Chicago con-
ventiOn, but it is known that friends of
both are making efforts to bring them
into harmonious relations, and il is be-
lieved their efforts may meet with sue
cess.
There are abundant indications that the
Ohio Republicans will adjust their differ
ences and support earnestly the ticket
nominated at Chicago. This is known to
be the expectation not only of Secretary
Taft, but also of Senator Foraker.

SHIPS SPEED ToRTuREs WHALE.
Animal Swallows Knot Recorder and

San Francisco.-With shrieks that
rose up high above the shrill and
awful bowling of hurricane, tor
tured whale rent the night air for
hours as it vainly strove to eject the
knot line and rotator of the schooner
]. M. Weatherwax, which it had swal-
lowed.
The disturbance in the interior Of
the monster which swallowed Jonah
was not a circumstance compared to
the frightful agony suffered by the one
which came from Eureka, with the
Weatherwax, as the knots were surely
and safely reeled offsin its alimentary
canal. The Weatherwax took ~ days
to come down from Eureka to this
port and part of the delay is at
tributed by Capt. Ooterhuis to the
made struggles of the whale in trying
to disgorge the rotatOr. According to
the log OF the vessel monster whale
was found to have swallowed the knot
line and rotator at the stern Of the
vessel For hours the whale screamed
in agony as the schooner, forced along
at Is knots an hour by the storm,
caused the rotator to infiict awful in
ternaI wounds on the leviathan. Death
ended the suffering of the whale short
ly after the line was cut by tender
hearted sailor.

cuBA's POPULATION is 2,o2s,2s2.
Result of Rough Count, However, May
Later Be Changed.

Washington. = Three months, or
probably more, in the opinion of war
department officials, will be necessary
for the tabulation Of the Cuban CEN
sus returns, rough count of which
census places the population of the
island at 2,028,2S2. Cuban clerks
work slowly and carefully, and, as the
force engaged is not very large, it
will be well into the spring before
detailed statistics of the islands pop
ulation are ready to be made public.
From the results of this tabulation
will be determined the actual num-
Der of persons who will be entitled to
vote at the coming elections to be
held as a preliminary to the with
drawal of the American army of inter-
vention, which now has been on the
island for more than year. Esti-
mates are made at the war depart
ment that the census returns will
show approximately 100000 men quail
fled to cast vote, first at the NUM-
cipal elections and later at the gen.
eral elections, when new president
is to be chosen aud to whose admin
istration the United States will for
mally restore the government.
Predictions now are freely made in
administration circles that this
change will not take place until the
beginning of 1909, and in all proba-
bility not until later date.

VACARY OF WIRELESS
SHIPS MESSAGE INTERRUPTED
BY BURSTS OF BAND MUSIC.
Incident on Battle Ship Ohio Causes
CONSERVATION Among Operators
and Mystifies Telegraph Elk
perts of the Service.

Washington.-Th many vagaries OF
the wireless systems of telegraphy
and telephony which are now installed
on the vessels of the navy are subject
to constant study by the electrical
experts who have charge of the plants.
They are of especial interest now be-
cause of the important part that wire
less communication will play in the
present trip of the warship feet to the
Pacific.
During the recent assembling Of the
fleet in Cape Cod bay one of the opera
tors on the Ohio, while receiving mes
sage, was suddenly interrupted by the
strains of a march sounding in his ear
pieces. Thinking it was the band of
the ship playing, he went to the officer
of the deck and asked to have the
band stopped until the message was
completed.
The man who relieved him at the re-
ceiver when he went to the officer Of
the deck continued to hear the music,
and, consequently, when the first OPP
orator returned and informed the man
at the receiver that the band was not
playing on the ship there was con-
sternation in the wireless office, for
sounding clearly in the ear pieces was
a march played by band.
The Connecticut being the only ship
present on which system of wireless
telephones had been installed, every
one was at loss to explain how music
could be heard over the receivers OF a
wireless telegraph. 1t seems the band,
which was heard at a distance of over
q mile, was on the Connecticut, and
Z her wireless transmitters were thrown
B in while her band was playing and an
other ship had wireless message in
terrupted by hearing this music. The
treason of this freak of electricity is
not yet explained.
! An explanation probably lies in the
fact that the ear pieces of the wireless
telegraph are very sensitive, and the
wireless telephone transmitter on the
I flagship is very powerful, hence the
ssKoD1d waves of the music caused SUI
ficent static electricity to be trans
mitted and received by the aerial Of
the wireless telegraph.
AS all wireless experts know, al
rectors OF the microphone type are ir
regular in their action, and for tha
reason are more or less unsatisfactory
While they are more sensitive thar
the coherer, they cannot generally b
used to advantage. They can be i'm
proved in their reliability by using
numbering multiple and revolving tn
needle, which is generally a small
steel piece, by clockwork. This cause
a more or less musical sound in tn
receiver, but the sound Of all the In
struments of band is quite anothe
matter, and it will probably be som
time before the real cause OF this phe
nomenon is discovered.

GIRL RUNS THIS FUNERAL.
Child of Twelve Brooks Ne Interior
ence with Mothers Cbscceiec.


New York.-A girl of II, ordering
affairs of life and death and assuming
responsibility with a determination
which would make the average person
of more than twice her years pause,
has given the residents of Vineland
N. j., much occasion for thought and
wonderment these last few days,
The Child is Gladys Hoffman, whose
mother, Madeline Hoffman, committed
suicide at Vineland by drinking poi
son. Since her mothers death the
girl has insisted successfully in hav.
ing absolute charge of everything con
nected with her parents funeral and
estate.
When the woman's body was pre-
pared for burial the child stipulated
that the body must rest in white
satin-lined coffin. When her aunt, Mrs.
Sarah Fry, would have interfered,
Gladys not only brushed her aside,
but prohibited her from attending the
funeral.
A brother of Mrs. Hoffman appeared
in Vineland and sought to take
charge of Mrs. Hoffman's affairs. He
was brought up by his niece with a
round turn. When he objected the
child was sustained by DR.. George
Cunningham of Vineland who tried to
save Mrs. Hoffmans life and who
had been a friend of the woman and
child.

Punnies Taxed In serllr.

Berlin.-It has long been felt that
the $4,000 dogs residing in Berlin
ought to pay more for that undoubted
privilege.
The chief magistrate of the city has
decreed that henceforth the ordinary
dog domiciled within the city shall
begin to pay the dog tax at the age of
two months instead of waiting until
he has reached the ripper age Of three
months.
This will affect $4,000 dogs, as the
1000 dogs living at the court and at
tached to the embassies and legations,
as well as those dogs used to pull
milk carts and bakers carts, will be
exempt from the tax.
