One of the most interesting fea-

. Under the Alabama law no COVER
nor is eligible to any Office until one
year has elapsed since the expiration
of his term as chief executive. AS
consequence of this law the novel sit
uation may soon be exemplified of
a chief executive resigning his office
to enter the race for another honor
against the very man he appointed to
that position. According to report
Governor B. B. Conner, the original
railroad rate reform" man, intends
soon to resign his office to campaign
against John H. Bankhead for the
senior senatorship.
Colorado has a new statute regu-
lating campaign expenses and meth
DDS of raising funds, which is APP
proved by Governor Shafroth as
means of purifying elections by shut
ting off contributions from corpora
tions and restricting the amount
available for expenditure. The plan
is to appropriate from the state
treasury sum based upon 25 cents
for each voter, and to add an as
sessmen upon each candidate of 40
per cent of the first years salary of
each office. Under this plan, the con-
tribution to the state next year will
be $65,250 divided between the
parties in proportion to the vote
cast for each. Half of this sum to
go to the managers of the state cam
paign and half to the county COM
mittees.

of impending trouble. Prosaic men
of science have denied the truth of
this assertion, but the more delicately
organized and spiritually attuned
poets and romancers have stuck to
the belief in the prophetic power of
the bOwwowS. Now, at last, a posi-
tive fact, attested by scores of truth
full citizens. is available, which bears
out and strongly substantiates the
sixth sense" theory so far as it re-
lates TO dogs. Near Clyde Station,
n. j., there is a farm owned by John
d. Rockefeller, where dogs are raised
for use in experiments carried on at
the Institute of Physical Research,
endowed by the oil king. Now, the
farmers in the neighborhood of ely lie
Station have appealed to the New
Jersey state board of health to abate
the dog farm as nuisance, because
the hundred or more dogs kept there
disturb the rest and peace of the
country around the farm with their
everlasting bowling. AS the dogs are
we'll fed and humanely treated on the
farm, there can be no other explana-
ton of their bowling than to assume
that their sixth sense" tells the
poor brutes that sooner or later they
will be vivisected into outlets and
chopped into scientific hash by the
learned men at the institute
A rather novel situation is con-
fronting the police authorities of
Perth AmbOy in mosquito-ridien
New Jersey. A short time ago a man
named Wilson was released from
state prison after having served four
and half years for burglary Upon
his release he made a formal de-
mand upon the chief of police for
the return of his black jack, revol~
yer, black mask, rubber shoes and
set Of skeleton keys and burglar tools
which were found in his possession
at the time of his arrest and were
taken away from him. He insists
that he needs the tools, etc., in his
business and threatens to sue for
their return should his demand be
refused.
At last the Municipal Bureau of
Research has discovered" that there
was a great deal wrong with the
work of the tenement house COM
mission in New York. Everybody in
New York, even the sparrows on the
roofs. has been fully aware of the
fact that there was a great deal of
carelessness, incapability and crook
edness in the manner in which the
duties of that commission were full
filled or rather neglected, but it re-
quired years before the city gov
eminent discovered" these facts and
took cognizance of them. Should a
serious attempt at reform in that de-
, partment of the city government be,
made, it will undoubtedly meet with
strenuous opposition, not only from
the commissioners and their employ
es, but also from hundreds OF con-
tractors, builders and tenement own
ers, who found it cheaper to silence
the inspectors of the tenement de-
partment by an occasional tip than
to obey the strict laws in regard to
| the sanitation and construction of
| tenements.

New York, Aug. lit will, un-
doubtedly, be startling news to many
readers to learn that humanity is now
attaining 'the zenith of the fifth sub
race of the fifth root-race" At least
that is what Mrs. Annie Besant, pres
ident of the Theosophical society, as
serted the other night in an address
delivered before an exclusive audi
ence of theosophists She did not eX-
plain what she really meant by her
statement and it is extremely doubt
full that any one of the theosophists
present understood the esoteric mean
ing of these weighty words. But, of
course, it must be so, for Mrs. Be-
SAINT, being the successor of the Ia
mented Nine. Blavatsky, is in a posi-
ton to know about these things.
A young Yale man whom excess
i've cigarette smoking has driven into
the ranks of the theosophists, quite
understood "doot-race' instead of
root race" but was gently set Alright
by the exalted speaker, who then con-
tinued to give her audience some
more startling information. She in
formed them that the time was al
most ripe for the reincarnation of
Christ and that it would not at all
surprise her should he return in the
form of a woman. The latter remark
was made to meet an interrogatory
protest of a theosophist of the suf-
fragette description. Mrs. Besant
also told her audience that her Sixth
Root Race Sense" informed her that
airships were quite common in In
dia 10000 years ago, but that in the
change from one root race to another
the knowledge Of airships became
lost in the shuttle.
The Equal Franchise society, as
the piebald conglomeration of suf-
which has for some time made des.
perate efforts to make propaganda
for women's suffrage in this city by
doing all kinds of the most luii-
crous stunts, has arranged for Sc
ries OF free lectures before the sum-
mer students at Columbia university
and hopes to recruit large number
of suffragettes among the young wo-
men pursuing their studies while
other people are loafing in fishing
camps and on the verandas of sum-
mer hotels. At one of these lectures
the other day, Mrs. Nathan, vice
president of the Equal Franchise So
ciety, delivered a lecture, in which
she made the assertion that women
should be given the right to- vote,
because conditions demanded it."
One of the students, evidently not
in sympathy with the sentiments ex-
pressed by the lecturer, in discuss
ing the lecture, especially criticized
the statement referred to. "The
only thing" he said to a circle of
other students, that, at present de-
mand women's suffrage are the suf-
fragettes and these are not 'condi-
tions. as Mrs. Nathan said, but de-
plorable facts"
1t has often been asserted by stu
dents making a speciality of studying
