Hammond is the whistle on the pea
nut roasters. 1t is as sharp as the
point of a stilleto. 1t is not loud
noise, but it goes clear through the
average person and after searching
out the spinal cord, it plays tag up
and down it. The peddlers at o'clock
in the morning the milkmen and the
newsboys on the street add their share
of the nerve-racking din. "Pa-pie ee-
ali" can be heard in the evening, and
in fact, at most hours of the day, and
the boys all vie with each other to see
who can make the biggest noise.
Then there are the factory whistles.
the rattle and click of iron and steel
in the mills, the rumble of heavy wa
CONS, the blowing of whistles the
shouts of the men on the streets all
add to the daily pandemonium.
There is little wonder that doctors
complain that some of their patients
are unable to recover on account of
the deadly noise which surrounds them
GIudness in the silent Woods.
1t is not surprising that the tired
business men goes to the northern
lakes and for a few brief weeks be-
comes a primitive man again. He
lives in the great silent woods He
views the rising and setting OF the
sun and seems to wonder how it can
be accomplished without noise.
At night the only sounds which reach
his ear are the cries of the whoppoor-
will and other birds. which only seem
to empasize the stiffness. And should
Hammond, Whiting and East chi
cago car go grinding through stiffness
of that forest fastness the chances are
that his lake camp would be converted
into an insane asylum with nothing but
violent wards in it,

Point to Tippecnnoe County.

They are pointing out the fact that
Tippecanoe county, the big republican
county of the district, is all split up,
politically speaking. The city of La
Fayette has a democratic administra-
ton that has made good, and there is
a strong sentiment that 1t should be
kept democratic The treatment given
State Senator VIII Wood when he de-
sired to be a delegate to the Chicago
convention will not be forgotten by a
large number of democrats and re-
publiCans, and the democrats are hop
ing that some of the dissatisfied ones
, will vote the democratic ticket this fall.
Tippecanoe county used to have a re-
publican plurality of about 100 In
1906. Fred Sims, one of them ost popu-
lar men on the state ticket. carried
it by 1875, and Mr. Crumpacker car
ried 1t by S94. The democrats hope to
earry the county on the congressional
and county tickets even If they lose
it on the national and state. Benton
county had a republican plurality OF
312, while Mr.. Crumpacker got it by

BALKAN SKIES

Servia is Getting Ready
 for the Worst
Preparations to Resist Franz JOse1's Annexation Projects.

Belgrade, Servia. Oct. CA ukase calling out all the army reserves of the first class was published here to- day These reserves total 12O,O0O men. It is explained officially that the step was taken because many of the time expired soldiers are to leave the ranks on October 14. and in view of the situation in the neighboring Balkan states and especially in the state Of Servia itself, it was deemed advisable to fill up in advance the va canCieS thus to be created.
 Telegrams received here from the provinces show great enthusiasm over the war against Austria Hungary for the reason that Emperor Francis Jos ephs proposal to annex the occupied provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina threatens to hem in Servia on the west; furthermore a majority of the population of Bosnia are Servians and bitterly opposed to annexation.

BRAVE BLUES"
 OF ARIZONA
The Militidmen in AtdSCa-
 derO ManeuVerS
Good Account of Them selves Fitted Against Regular Forces.

Camp Atascadero, Oct. 6.-March- ing and counter marching and going throughout the various evolutions and exercises of the battalion drill in the hot sun on the large plain in front of the headquarters. the Second, Fifth and Seventh regiments of the national guard of California, which arrived in camp yesterday, had their first taste of real work as soldiers this morning
 Promptly at s o'clock battalions from each of the three regiments of militia moved out into the plain and were drilled and exercised for several hours by their officers pre- liminary to the field movements in conjunction with the regulars. While the California guard was engaged in battaJion evolutions, Col. McClintock' s four companies of the Arizona militia, many of them hardy plainsmen and cowboys, which came into camp on Sunday and pitched their tents like so many veterans. were engaged in the first field maneuvers with the regulars.
 r The Eighth infantry, regulars. un- der Col. Frederick A. Smith as the advance guard of an imaginary divi- sion, accompanied by troop ID" of the Fifth cavalry, Captain J. M. Jen- kins, advanced south for several miles to capture small force of the enemy at Eagle Ranch. The enemy was represented by two companies of the Arizona militia under Captain Cameron. When the collision be- tween the cavalry patrol and the en- emy occurred. the latter were driven back. and Col. Smith and his regi- ment then took up a defensive posi- tiOn to stop the advance of the hos tile Blue" force, represented by the Arizonians, while the imaginary main body was forced to turn west. The Blues" who landed on the coast at Morrow. suddenly appeared on the flank. coming through Devils Gate.
 While Col Smith and his regiment had taken a defensive position south of Camp Atascadero. the 20th, under Lieutenant Colonel Moon had taken a defensive position as advance guard of a larger body of troops to stop the advance of an enemy coming from the north, represented by two compa- nes of the Arizona militia, under Captain Parks.
 The Arizona boys were highly com mended for their tactical disposition and work in the field in todays maneuVers.
 This afternoon the regulars remain ed in camp but there was no rest for either the Arizona or the California militia, both of which had been en- gagged in advance and rear guard drills and movements in the field.

I ing had the able and fearless adminis- tsa,io4 Of -heodore Roo;sveiC for the last seven years, and the certainty of four more years Of progress and prosperity under William
 H. Taft. Arizona owes much to the progress sive and efficient administration Of Governor Joseph H. Kibbey and Mari cOpa county more, and we commend
 his administration unreservedly and
 particularly his efforts to equalize the burdens of taxation.
 The last republican territorial con- vention gave us a platform and can didate that every loyal republican can enthusiastically support and republi- can success under the leadership of Ralph H. Cameron insures immediate and separate statehood for Arizona.
 We condemn the extravaganza of the democratic county administration. Un- der a republican administration terri tOriaI taxes have been greatly reduced while during the same period the dem Ocratic county administration mas in creased the property assessment while the cOunty rate Of taxation has not been lowered. We particularly con demn the deplorable condition of the county poor farm, which under demo- cratic management has become a dis
 grace to the county and an outrage upon the unfortunate inmates.
 We condemn the vicious practice of
 the democratic board of supervisors in
 using the public road funds as a pOli ticaI asset and wasting the public mon ey in the payment of unearned sala-
 r:es to inefficient road overseers in stead of expending it upon the i'm
 provement and betterment of the pub lie highways.

Pekin, Oct 6.-The scene of the Chinese-Tibet comedy has been trans ferred from the provinces to Pekin. The latest act is the cancellation of the proposed audience with the Dalai Lama of Tibet with the emperor of China. which was to have occurred today and for which elaborate prep arations were made. The Dalai Lama had been brought into the capital for the meeting but he firmly resisted the coaching of Chinese officials in the ceremony that China wanted Ob- served at the auspices, and his atti- tude finally made any meeting i'm possible.

He Gave Out the Information That the President is Ina Accord With Chairman Hitchcock and That He is Confident of the Result.

Washington, Oct. 6.-George R Sheldon, treasurer of the republican national committee, arrived from New York this morning. He spent half an hour with Secretary Loeb, called upon Secretary Root and Assistant Secretary Bacon and later took lun- cheon with President Roosevelt.
 Mir Loeb said there was no truth in the rumor that MT. Sheldon would resign as treasurer, and after lunch ing with the president. MT.

Tn the ad- dress of welcome, as well as in the responses by delegates, from other states there was an apparent realiza- ton of the necessity for organized ac- tion in behalf of the vast area repre- scented, and there is a belief that the practical results desired will be at tained before the day of adjournment through the medium Of harmonious deliberation.

"On his authority, as well as from my own knowledge, I can say most positively that the relations between him and MT. Hitchcock are of the closest and most friendly character. Hitchcock has his entire confidence and President Roosevelt heartily ap- proves of the manner in which MT. Hitchcock is managing the campaign, and l may add, President Roosevelt is confident of the result"
 Sheldon stated that campaign con- tribUtions had not been as liberal as in previous campaigns, but this he attributed to the various state laws on the subject. The republicans, however, he said, would have money enough to carry them through the campaign.

New York Nationals Take the Second Game From Boston.

Chicago, Oct. 6.-What is said to have been the closest pennant contest ever wageG in the American league came to an end in this city today when the Detroit's champions or 1907 captured the emblem for another year, defeating Chicago to o.
 Detroit, Cleveland and Chicago struggled all season for first place. never being far from each other in the percentage table and not until today could the winner be picked.
 St Louis put Cleveland out Of the running yesterday leaving the field to Detroit and Chicago. Chicago's fight has been an uphill one, but Manager and Captain Jones never despaired until the last of the Chicago players had been retired today. Had Chicago triumphed the pennant would have come to this city but the defeat of the local team in the final left no subject Of debate.
 Detroits victory was clean and de- cisive. Jones used three pitchers. White, Walsh and smith. but he could not subdue the DetrOits Donovan pitched the kind of ball that will win almost any game. His teammates coming first to bat lent him conf dence in the initial inning by knocking White out of the box and putting four runs over the plate. All told he struck out ten men.
 Behind him errorless ball played and and hits were made when hits were needed. There were thirteen of them, a fatal proportion of them, from the local viewpoint. being in the first inn ing. Detroit's batting alone would have captured the contest with ease, but assurance was made doubly sure by Chicago's errors. five in number.
