ernor Glasscock will convene a spe-

fight to have menselected to the next

Giasscock idea.
Four days ago an attempt wis
made by the Democratic minority Of
the House to hold caucus for the

It wasn't held Tor the reason that
Eve or six Democrats refused to en-

meters of the fllibusterlng expedi-

they have termed Dawson Demo-
craft The term is rather unique

consible. But, nevertheless. they
say on the minority side Of the
House, that there is such person

minority member who believes in

Secretary Ballinger is hot under he
collar, not a very nice condition to
be in during this torrid weather. but
then the Secretary gives a very good
reason for it. One Pinchot, a hold-ov-
er Official from the Roosevelt admins
tration has hung on to certain views
of the Roosevelt regime, one of them
being to go ahead and run his bureau
regardless OF the laws and wishes and
rights Of other departments Balm
ger probably does not object TO Mr..
Pinchott running his bureau TO suit
himself, but does enphatically object
when Mr.. Pinchott cheerily tries to
run his department also. Mr. Pinchott
must not be blamed too severely, how
ever. He Is inoculated so thoroughly
with the ideas of the Great African,
that he Is not accountable for such
li1tle things as disregarding the law
Of the country and the common cour
tesies OF everyday life-- Like our del
egate to congress. he has the do it
idea down pat and goes ahead In the
typical Roosevelt way, bluf. blusteI

Starting from the Herald building /

oughbred Esteban. H. H. Weather.,
set out on an interesting ride of 1900
miles to the Chicago Record-Herald
building In Chicago and return in a

Esteban is a typical twentieth cen

high. rather long of leg and light OF
bone and at a casual glance does no
give the impression of being a rugged
horse. But Mr.. Weatherly says he is
a big feeder. always ready for his din.
ner and always ready for a gallop.
Esteban was bred at the famous
Rancocas stud established by Pierre
LoriIlard at Jobstown, N. J.. and was

extending over 10 years. h winner

acre for the water rights. He may
then finish the payments during the
following nine years if he wishes TO

Thousands of people are interested
in his drawing. Fruit land in the in
mediate vicinity is held at hundreds

reservoir is said to contain 10000
square feet. which, augmented by the
natural flow of Pine River. will give a

LARGEST OF STATUES.
Colossal Efisy of Victor Emmanuel u
Cast For Capitol at Rome.

Colossal EhTey of Victor Emmanuel u.
Cast For Capitol at Rome.
The bronze equestrian statue of Vic
tor Emmanuel IL, intended to sur
mount the monument to the first king
Of Italy on the capitol at Rome. has
recently been cast. Owing to the huge
proportions of the statue. which Is the
largest in the world. special molds had
to be provided for h casting. They
were divided into thirteen sections.
An idea of the colossal size of the
statue may be formed from the fol
lowing figures: The kings sword is
over twelve feet In length and weighs
about IT'S pounds. The arness weighs
over four tons. Over thirteen tons OF
metal were used In casting the horses
chest and body. while the head of the
king. including the helmet. measures
seven feet and weighs 46.25o pounds.
There is room for thirty men inside
the hollow body. Its size is unparal-
leled In history or legend. with the ex,
ception Of the celebrated wooden horse
tabled to have been used at the siege
of Troy.

went back and again the spades were
put to the trench. Again fell such a
flood of water as made the frightened
disturbers course back under the roof
n rafter, to save their cassocks.
Again and again they tried. with such
slowness to take a hint as character
lies those old fellows of legend.
Forty DAYS they were wettet by these
astounding rains. But ~forty-one days
little knowing the harm that they
were working TO the climate, they
came back. with spade and book and
candle. And in the last day they had
up the bones OF Swithin and carried
them. water soaked as they were in
all state and ceremony TO a dryer rest
ing place near the chancel. Ever
since then the rains that have fallen
on Swithin's mass ave kept on for
forty days. eve as they did that sum
mer when his grave was to be dug
open and emptied.
Men gradually began to perceive
that there had been a great miracle
done. as the wonder year after year
repeated itself. Another century, and
in 1904 the rain-brewing bones were
lifted ~gingerly and transferred TO the
new Cathedral where they are 10 this
day.
Naturally time did its work. and
Swithin in the end was remembered
as a worthy nan but n ~singulariy
watery. dreary fellow. As a matter
of fact he was nothing of the sort
but really an honest light in worldly
things and a busy " of the faith
in things holy. There IS even n like
ness of "Eciswithun" on an old seal

to say. under a starry sky. as II he
had been rather fond of fine weather
in his time.
Swithin was tutor and later Chan
cellor OF King Ethelwold. who made

as permanent as his influence on ths
weather. He was a preceptor of Al
fred the Great too. and accompanied

confirmed. He died in S62. Until his
