The weakness of the Hughes candidacy before
the people lies in the only strength that his can
didacy will have before the convention. His entire
following to-day lies in the passion which has
been aroused against the bosses. 1t has frequently
been popular cry and it may be made again; but
it does fill ballot box except when the nght Is
directed against the bosses of the other political
party.-The Albany Journal.
Is 1t therefore an issue to deliver over to the
Democratic party by rejecting Mr. Hughes ana
thus let them I'LL the ballot boxes with it? Tho
passion against the bosses might not make votes
fo- the Republican party If Mr. Hughes is re-
nominated but 1t would be to make votes
against 1t If he is beaten.

EXPLORERS SLEDGE
GIVEN TO MUSEUM
Vehicle Used by Paul du Chaillu
an Ungainly and UnComfort-
able Affair.

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE sledge used
by the explorer and writer, Paul du
ChaiIlu, ia his winter journeyings in
Lapland, and described In his Land
of the Midnight sun" has been given
by Harper Brothers to the American
Museum Of Natural History.
To the uninstructed eye. the sIedge
looks ike a badly built, round-bottom
rowboat, with the stern cut of square.
and It is difficult 10 imagine travelling
in it with any degree Of comfort The
kcTre, as the sledge IS called IN lap
land, is constructed OF nine heWn mr.
planks, the central piece being about
two inches thicker than the others, and
forming a sort of keel, which takes the
place of runners, but is soon worn down
by travel
At the forward end. or bow. the keel
extends beyond the joining Of the other
planks and is finished or by a pro-
jeCting prov, and through a hole be-
hind the prov the single trace is passed
The thwaTts are held in place by square
headed wooden pegs, There are no nails
or any metal about the kerre.
The stern board is tied on by means
of a rope. of twisted bark ibers, and
along the sides Of the vehicle are sIung
loops of the same. or Of string. TO which
the fur robes may be fastened. The
sledge is about seven feet long. and is
for one uncomfortable traveller, who
must be an expert at balancing.
