THEIR WILD CLAIMS.
Republican Candidates for
Governor Afflicted With
Advanced Optimism.
ESTIMATES INACCURATE.

indianapolis, Feb. 22.-According TO
estimates made by the various candi-
dates for the republican gubernatorial
nomination, it would appear that all,
or nearly all, OF the delegates TO the
coming convention had been selected,
when, as a matter of fact. the total
number of delegates now named is on
ly 3J4
Supporters Of Congressman James
T.. Watson declare that PAT delegates
Of the number selected are for their
candidate. Without taking the time
70 deny this. supporters of Charles w.
Miller say he has goo. Oliver p. Ems
ley, manager for William l.. Taylor
says his man has 1870, and friends Of
Hugh Miller assert with a positive
ness that tends to carry conviction
with it that the lieutenant governor
has 200
If these estimates were accurate,
the number of delegates now named
would aggregate S97. The fact that
only 35f delegates have been named
proves that the estimates are inaccu-
rate. One fact does exist, however
and that is that delegates are being
named earlier this year than ever be
fore. Usually the bulk of delegates
are named with the two or three
weeks Immediately preceding the
convention. 1t now appears that the
full LACY delegates will have been
named quite time before the con-
ventiOn dates arrive.

Trees Worth Growing.

of their dignity of form and peculiar

are remarkably free from the insect

icebergs are natives of more northern

June's icebergs are Labrador's own

ice field that has filed the bays and
extended far into the ocean in the pre-

be pressed out from their margins. The
breath had a sour smell. and the com
plexion was of a muddy. sallow tint
In caring for these cases the first step
was to purify the mouth and put the
teeth into good condition. Such pro-
cedure. together with suitable tones
and local eye treatment, brought about
n perfect recovery. This is only one
example Of the serious nature OF dental
diseases.

by a friend attended a rehearsal, at

tween two of the actresses as to the
possession Of the center of the stage
during a certain scene. While the man
ager poured oil upon the troubled wa
tiers jefferson sat carelessly swinging
his feet from the rail of an adjoining
box. The friend could stand it no
longer.
Good gracious, jefferson" he ex-
claimed. this will ruin your play

RAOlUM AND LIFE.
The Experiments That Have Been
Made and What They show.


Made and What They show.
Does it appear that any one has pre-
pared from sterilized bouillon by the
action Of radium or in any other way
living organisms capable of multiply
ing either by repeated subdivision or
by means of spores or capable of pro-
ducing definite fermentivc changes
such as those which we associate with
80 many of the organisms hitherto in
vestigated? The answer jumps straight
to the lips. No such discovery has been
recorded nor has anything been OBJ
served which would justify us in sup
posing that we are on the verge of
making such discovery at the present
moment.
The fact is that, though much has
been written and among other things
quite big book, very little has really
been accomplished up to the present.
A few preliminary experiments sug-
gested by the marvellous qualities of
radium have been made, and that is
all. Those experiments and their re-
suits, which are not at all revolution
airy, may be described in half q dozen
sentences. Mr.. Burke finds that when
small quantities or radium bromide or
chloride are scattered on the surface Of
carefully sterilized bouillon we'll pro-
tected from the air in closed vessels
minute objects appear in the bouillon
after one or two days. ...-. ...
These objects have been watched,
and Mr.. Burke reports that after their
first appearance they develop into two
dots, next present the appearance of
dumbbells and subsequently of bis
cults, afterward take on forms which
remind an observer of frogs spawn
and finally divide, lose their in5'vidual-
ity and become transformed into mi
mute crystals. ..t.
These bodies. which Mr.. Burke very
prematurely describes as cultures" do
not multiply, as living organisms
shonld do, when they a. transferred
10 fresh tubes of sterihled bouillon,
though. as might be expected, they
give some slight evidence that the ac-
tivity of the radium salt is not quite
exhausted by it's first action, and they
are soluble in water.
Now. it would be dogmatic to say
that radium will not generate life in
organic matter, but clearly Mr.. Burke
gives us little or no reason to suspect
that it does so at present.-Cornhill
