SUFFRAGETTES DESPERATE.
Will Use Bombs Next Time, Says Ar
 rested EngIishwoman.


 London, July 2.-The extraordinary demonstration before the house of par lament made by the suffragettes in their effort to secure votes for women had rather startling sequel when one of them, Mrs. Mary Leigh, arrested for breaking windows in the house of Premier AsQuith, declared in the Bow street police court that ''the next time we come out you can expect bombs."
 This threat by Mary Leigh, which was repetition of what she said at the time she was taken into custody, is really the sensation not only of the last demonstration, but of the entire movement
 The other woman arrested for break ing Premier Asquith's windows was Miss Edith New, and both she and Mrs. Leigh were sentenced to two months at hard labor. They were not allowed the option of fine.
 Compared to previous punishments meted out to the suffragettes, these sentences are particularly severe.

Johnson Men Enthusiastie.

O'Conner Os the same city. all of them enthusiastic supporters of the Minne- sota governor. Mayor Lawler. who acted as spokesman. said that all talk of Governor Johnson taking second place on the ticket is utterly nonsense. He will not take it." said Mayor Law Ter Tt is out of the question to talk cf such a thing. Even if the governor was himself disposed to accept the vice presidential nomination-and as- sure you he is not-the people of Min nesota would not permit him to do SO. Tke Democrats of Minnesota and his real friends throughout the country are not willing that Governor Johnson shall be side tracked into the vice presidency. He is too big q man for that place. and he belongs in the presi- dentiaI chair if he goes to Washington at sIl.-
 Mayor Lawler was not prepared 10

 Battle From Behind Her Body.
 Fresno, Cal, July 2.-After a desper- ate rife battle between rescuing par ty and Cleveland Rogers. one of her abductors, eighteen-year-old Edna Do mengine was rescued from the men who had Kidnapped her from the home of her father. Adolph Domengine, mil lionaire oil land owner and stockman, who lives in an isolated section of Fresno county.
 Tony Loveall, the other man con- cerned in the Kidnapping. had separated from Rogers and the girl earlier in the day and thus far has escaped his pur- suers,
 After the exciting battle between Rogers and the rescue party, which took place at an isolated cabin near Jacks Springs. the desperado surren- dered and was taken to jail at Coalin- ga. But he yielded only after the magazine of his rife had been exhaust ed. He used the body of the girl for a shield when the fusillade began, and this saved him. The posse were com pelled to shoot wild to avoid injuring the girl.
 Girl Rescued Uninjured.
 The girl was found to be uninjured. She had on only her nightdress, over which was thrown mans coat which Rogers had picked up from cabin in the foothills. On her head was wide brimmed sombrero Her little feet were bare and the sand and sun had chafed and burned them. She had been forced to walk for miles at the side of her captor's horse, and when the pursuit became hot she had been thrown across the animals back like a sack of corn, face down, in front of Rogers.
 t The pursuit started from Coalinga be- fore 6 o'clock in the morning At that hour Domengine rode into the town wild eyed and disheveled and aroused his friends and told them of the abduc- tion-of how two masked men had rid den up to his home, fired his barn and reused the family by rife shots: how they had overpowered them by the discharge and display of. rifles and had driven of with his daughter Edna in his own buggy, announcing that the girl would be returned safe to him the following evening at Jacks Springs, in Walthan canyon, on payment of ransom of 5000.
 Domengine promptly offered a re ward of s5,0oo for the capture of the kidnapers, but this was not needed to spur on the rescuing parties. The father started out in an automobile to search the foothills, while Sheriff Chit. tenden raised posse to capture the two bandits.

Politics and PoIItIcIana.

Indiana district delegates to the Re-
publican national convention will be
chosen February 4.
The candidacy of Attorney General
Herbert S. Hadley for the Republican
nomination for governor of Missouri in
1908 has been formally announced.
The Prohibitionists of New York have
decided to hold their state convention
this year in Syracuse on the first two
days of September.
1t is reported that ex-senator James
II. Berry, of Arkansas, may be a can
didate to succeed Senator James P.
Clarke, in the March primaries.
Governor Hughes, of New York, is
slated as the Lincoln Day orator at the
annual banquet of the Young Mems Re-
publican Club of New Haven next
month.
Speaker Shurtleff, of the Illinois
house of representatives is expected
SION to enter upon an active campaign
for the Republican gubernatorial nomi-
nation.
1t is reported from Washington that
Champ Clark, of Missouri, is an aspir-
ant for the United States senate, and
that he is only awaiting the election of
Democratic legislature in that state
to announce his candidacy.
United States Senator Jefferson Da-
Wis, of Arkansas, whose maiden speech
in the senate a short time ago attracted
much attention, is to be the principal
speaker next week at the meeting of
the New York State Progressive Demo
cratic League in Cooper Union.
Contests are already on in a number
OF states for the seats of the thirty-one
senators whose terms will expire March
a, 1909. Primary elections or elections
of legislatures this year will settle most
of these contests, some of which prom
ise to be exciting and spectacular in the
extreme.
The balloting for a United States
senator to succeed Senator Wetmore
will begin in the Rhode Island general
assembly next week. At the last as
sembly the necessary two-thirds vote
could not be obtained by either Of the
three candidates, and as a consequence
Rhode Island now has but one represen-
tative in the senate. The withdrawal
of Colonel Colt has left Senator Wet
more unopposed in his own party and
his election is consequently assured.
Senator Charles w. Fulton, of Ore
gon, whose term will expire a year
from next March, has fight on in the
primaries of his own party. There are
several candidates against him. If he
wins in the primaries the contest will go
to the polls, and Governor George E.
Chamberlain will be the Democratic
candidate. The contest promises to be
one of the most interesting in the polit-
ical annals of Oregon, and the prelimin-
ary steps IN the fight are already under
way.

cense was issued today to Miss Gladys
Moore Vanderbilt and Count Lazsto
Jeno Maria Henrik Simon Szecheny, OF

the application. Count Szecheny de-
scribed himself as q years old, by oc-
cupation, land owner and imperial and

Kentucky is near senatorial election
to succeed Senator James B. McCreary.
whose term in the upper house will
come to an end in March, 1909. Gov
ernor Beckham has all along been look
ed upon as the most likely successor to
Senator McCreary. But despite the ac-
tion of the primaries, the opposition to
Governor Beckham is said to have
grown so much of late that the outcome
is not certainty. The legislature is
about to meet, and the election will
soon be settled

VICE ADMIRALS FOR THE NAVY.
Prospects That Present Congress Will
Provide for Their Appointment.


Washington, Jan. 11.-There is eyerv
prospect that at the present session of
congress a law will pass providing that
the president may; in his discretion, ap-
point not more than three vice-admirals
for the navy; and that when appointed
such vice admirals may. upon order of
the president, be exempted from the
provision of law which retires a naval
officer when he reaches the age of GO
years. Were such a law passed the
president would Immediately take ad-
vantage of it to promote Rear Admiral
Robley D. Evans and to continue him
in the service until such time as the
battleship feet may return to Atlantic
waters.
Navy men are unit in favor of re-
creating the rank of vice-admiral: and
when, in the present condition of the
service, all naval men agree on a thing
1t certainly must have merit. The de-
STABILITY of having naval officers of
higher rank is apparent. Wehave in
Dewey one full admiral, and no other
officer above the rank of rear admiral.
Most other navies have several admirals
and numerous vice-admirals. The law
which made an admiral of Dewey pro-
vided that he should remain on the ac-
tive list for life, unless he was retired at
his own request. But Dewey doesn't
go to sea, and when our warships visit
foreign ports the officers in command
find themselves outranked.
Unless provision is made for his pro-
motion and detention in active service,
Admiral Evans will retire on August ls
next. There will be an unusually large
number of retirements in the navy this
year, among the officers to 90 being
Captain William S. Cowes, President
Roosevelt's brother-in-law. Captain
Henry B. Mansfield, who saw active
service in the civil war, is another, and
third is Captain William H. Emory,
who commanded the Bear in the Greedy
relief expedition in 1884. Captain John
M. Hawley, the hero of the Samoan
hurricane of 1899, who will be retired
July %, and other officers will be lost to
the navy who have splendid records.

Richmond, Va, Jan. 13. The ap-
pointment of the standing committees
of the house, the naming of which oc-
CURED today, perfects that body for ac,
tive work.
Both branches tackled the Legislative
proposition with avidity today, commit
tees from both houses being in session
this afternoon.
The sessions of the two branches to-
day were short but very active.
The Republicans of the senate made
their first show of strength and were
defeated, notwithstanding that five
Democrats voted with the minority.
The attack was made by Senator
Noel, the Republican leader, on the
steering committee on the grounds that
on two of the big committees of that
body, finance and roads, the minority
had been given no representation. The
protest was dignifed and well placed.
but when it came to a show down the
necessary votes were not to be had to
upset the report of the committee and
the Republicans will have no voice in
the distribution of the state finances.
The Democrats voting with the Re-
publicans on the proposition were
Folkes, of Richmond; Strobe, of Am
herst; Thornton, of Prince William:
Ward, of Winchester; and White, of
Fluvanna.
The senate and house united in a trib-
ute OF respect to the memory of Will
liam H. Boaz, late member of the house
from the county of Albemarle, who also
served in the constitutional convention.
Mr.. Boaz died several months ago. He
was chairman of the finance committee
of the house for years.
