DICKINSON ron CABINET.
chicago Lawyer Believed TO Have Taken
War secretAryship.

CINCINNATI. Feb. 20.-Jaoob M. Diclxin-
son, the Chicago lawyer " no has been mon
TONED for Secretary Of War In the Taft
Cabinet, had a long conference with the
President-eleet here this morning. Neither
Mr.. Taft nor MIR. Dickinson would say
anything in regard to the conference,
but 1t is believed the War portfolio was
formally offered by Mr.. Taft.
Dir. Dickinson. II he accepts a post In
the Taft Cabinet, will be credited TO
Tennessee. his native State. He prac-
tised law there until within a few years,
when he moved TO Chicago He Is now
general counsel Of the Illinois Central
Railroad.
Dickinson and Charles Nagel Of Mis-
souri,. who has been slated for Secretary
OF Commerce and Labor, will undoubtedly
be the South's representatives in the
Cabinet. Dickinson Is Democrat OF
the Luke f. Wright type. The probability
Of Wright being omitted from the Taft
official family has been a surprise to the
President elects friends. Wright until
recently was regarded as a fixture In tho
Taft Cabinet and Mr.. Taft's friends are
beginning TO ask what has come up be-
tween him and the President-elect. Wright
was appointed to the Roosevelt Cabinet
on Mr.. Taft's recommendation.
It Ia the impression here that the Dick
inson visit to-day completed the Taft
Cabinet, with the exception of the Treas
ury portfolio. Mr.. Taft ia having a lot
Of trouble filing IL.
Mr.. Taft said good-by TO his native
town as private citizen this afternoon
for at least four years. He left at 3:15
o'clock for Philadelphia. A good sized
crowd was at the station to cheer him on
and he was kept busy all the morning
shaking hands with his friends and ao-
knowledging their good wishes.
Mr.. Taft will meet his wife in Phila-
delphia early tomorrow morning and
they will be the guests OF DR.. s. Weir
Mitchell over Sunday. On Monday after
noon the President-eleot will deliver the
Washington Birthday address at the
University Of Pennsylvania and in the
evening he will attend a banquet He
will go to New York on the 23d, where he
will speak at a meeting to be held by
Booker T. Washington TO raise funds for
Tuskegee Institute. Mr.. Taft hasn't
decided yet just how long he will remain
In New York city. He will go from New
York to Washington for the Inauguration.
COLUMBUS. Ohio, Feb. 20 Mr.. Taft
passed through Columbus at 9 o'clock
this evening. Several hundred men were
at the station to cheer him. At Xenia
MIR. Taft appeared on the rear platform
in response to cheers from a big crowd.
He made brief speech.

From Popular Mechanics.

The United States man o. war Michigan
still in service on the Great Lakes. is the
oldest iron ship in the world. built on the
shores Of Lake Erie in 1912.
She was a veteran when Ericsson's
Monitor threw all the navies Of the world
into the junk pile, and many and many a
generation of fighting ships has come
and gone since then.
Her. iron construction was a novelty
in naval work. but for years afterward
the United States continued TO build
wooden ships for its navy, including the
famous kearsarge, which was built
twenty years later.
Even the Constellation, a wooden ship
that shares the honors of the old sailing
vessels Of the navy with Old Ironsides,
did not come until 1854.
The material for the ship was dragged
across the mountains from Pittsburg
to Lake Erie. The plates and angles,
bars and beams, bolts and rivets. forg-
ings and castings were all made at Pitts

WAS run OVER By / DRILL
Fred Eckhart Fell Forward From the
Seat on Grain Drill and Suffered In
juries From Which He Died After
Being 7roupht to the jamestown
Hospital.

Jamestown n. D., May 22-Fred
Eckart was brought to the city hos
pital suffering from injuries received
by being run over by drill while en-
gagged in work in the field near Me-
dina Wednesday last. It appears
that he was riding on drill and by
some means fell forward, the wheels
passing over him. He was also drag
ged and twisted around by the discs
of the drill in. such manner that he
was fatally injured in the intestines,
one lung was pierced, and his neck
was broken at the base of the brain.
He was brought to the city hospi-
tai but died soon afterwards, as no
aid was of any avail. 1t was found
that one intestine had been ruptured
and that death was certain to have
occurred from that as we'll as from
the dislocation of the vertegrae.
The deceased was 26 years of age
and leaves a wief and two children.
He has resided eight miles south of
Medina for several years past and
owned 24O acres of land. The body
was taken to Medina for burial. Mr..
Eckhart was engaged in seeding fax
at the time of the accident.

Valley City, N. D., May 22.-Lee
Combs went to Fargo yesterday for
the purpose of serving the injunction
order issued by Judge Burke on Supt.
Craver of: the Fargo division of the
Northern Pacific. He was successful
in finding Mr.. Craver and the papers
were duly served on him. John
Chamberlain, the local agent, was also
served with a copy of the papers and
the order of the court applies to all
officials and employees of the road. In
the event that the officials insist on
running passenger trains over the
high line all officials or employees
stand in contempt of court and Judge
Burke would undoubtedly issue au OIL
der for the railway to show cause why
the officials responsible for the dis
obedience of the courts order should
not be punished for contempt, in the
discretion of the court.
The attorneys for the city arc
awaiting the opening gun Of Northern
Pacific attorneys. They expect to get
q broadside somewhere between wind
and water in the immediate future.
Agent Chamberlain has received no
instructions but that one and two will
go over. the high line Sunday. The
railroad people seem to consider the
injunction something in the nature Of
q joke and are having sall sorts of
amusement Of just how Sheriff Wink
Ter will get No. 2 Sunday If it pro-
ceeds to pas us up over the high line
at about 60 miles an hour.
