Governor John A. johnson has re-
turned to st. Paul from his trip to
Virginia and Alabama.
He was much impressed with the
growth and activity Of some Southern
cities. II found Norfolk. Atlantis and
Birmingham particularly alive" he
said. "and in every way like Northern
oities.'
The governor did not discuss the
general political situation except to
say:
II got SO per cent of the Democratic

roadway, he headed 1t straight for this
precipice, and 1t seemed inevitable that
he would succeed in accomplishing his
design. But the instant the car left
the highway Prince Ghika was struck
with the thought that his chauffeur
had gone mad. He at once leaped
upon him and attempted to take con-
troll Of the car away from him.
In the struggle that ensued the
chauffeur was overpowered. He was a
powerful man, but Prince Ghika was
more than a match for him.
The prince was able to prevent tie
car from going over the precipice, but
to do 1t he had to steer it into huge
bowlder, and when it struck the rock
1t was overturned, and in it's over
turning the chauffeur was instantly
killed. r..
The princes first thought was that
his wife also had been killed, for she
lay motionless and apparently dead for
several minutes after the accident. He
was overjoyed when she opened her
eyes and lost no time In hurrying hor
back to Bucharest and providing for
her the attention she needed.

Monster OF the Deep Caught Net Of italian Fishermen Drags
Their Boat Out Of San Francisco Harbor ata
Speed Of Ten Miles an Hour.

The Italian fishermen Of San Fran
cisco sometimes have very thrilling
experiences and narrow escapes from
the monsters of the deep In following
their vacations. BY monsters Of the
deep are meant principally whales,
sharks and sea lions. Very recently
two italian fishermen had an expert
ence with a monster sea lion which
reads more like "blood and thunder

Dragged out past leering harbor

several hours in the clutches of an I'M
