SEES FAULT IN SCIENTISTS
Thinkers Of To-Day Lack imagination,
According to Writer in Cas-
sier's Magazine.

Men of science, your faculties are
weakened by the very exactitude
which is your pride. You measure and
weigh, and you are surrounded and
overwhelmed by the limitations i'm.
posed by the experiences of YOUR
senses. You seek causes upon observ.
ing effects, or determine the effects
resulting from given causes; but such
analyses do not lead you into the
realm of imagination. You are too
material. If you had been Newton,
upon observing the apple fall. you
would have thought, THE reason why
1t fell was because its stem became
too weak to hold it," Newton, how.
ever, had no imagination, and thereby
ne discovered the law of gravitation,

deeds will be offspring of our imagina.

accomplished by chance or a benefit

SOME FREAKS OF CYCLONES
Tennessee Man Tells Of Strange
Franks Credited to the Power Of
the Wind.

Cyclones are not what they used to
be in the old days." complained Col.
A. NJ. Hughes of Columbia, Tenn,
while talking in Washington of the
recent storm that swept his home
state.
'The cyclone which devastated parts
OF Tennessee a couple of weeks ago
killed a large number of persons; just
how many probably never will be
known. But l haven't heard of any
freaks perpetrated by the storm.
Houses were blown down and people
were crushed to death, but the storm
seemed to spare nothing in its path.
Ten years ago when the town of
Columbia was visited by the cyclone
which tore up large part of that
section of the state, about 16 lives
were lost in and about the town. Aft
er the storm had subsidized reports of

bricks were hammered apart and the
timbers were twisted into kindling

shack which was used as chicken
house was left untouched A man
OF any strength at all could have
pushed 1t over with his shoulder.
ION another farm a large tree was
found transfixed by a beam carried
from house.
THE timber had been shot through
the tree as neatly as an arrow through
tin target. Why the beam was not
shattered to splinters by the terrible
impact no one could tell. But the
perforated tree with the captive tim
Der stood there to prove the story.
The entrance of the government
arsenal at Columbia was guarded by
an immense stone pillar on either
side. The storm confined it's attention
to these pillars. They were literally

pieces. Cyclones of these days JUS,

When seen by Tribune man Last

stated in reply to "a question regard
ing his possible candidacy for the
United States senate, that as he had
never made a formal announcement
Of his candidacy he did not consider
it was necessary to make formal
withdrawal from the race, but that
for information of those interested
he would state THAT he has no am

lively not b. a candidate for that po-
sition.
When asked about reelection to
his present Office he stated that he
would be candidate and would make
his run on the same lines aus at the

There were a good many people who
believed Mr.. Miller would be "a very
strong candidate for tine senate and
there are few who will doubt his
ability to be reelected to the position
of attorney general.

fering from frozen limbs, both his
legs and his arms being frozen, as a
result OF exposure to the cold for
twenty hours. The authorities at the
hospital had not decided Tuesday
evening as to whether amputation
would be necessary or not.
AS near as can be learned from
the story the man tells, he had been
working for a farmer near Dogden,
and had had some trouble with him
and was turned out into the storm
at o'clock in the afternoon.
He started to walk to Dogden and

BRAr1ON ASSAlLANI
IS NOT Identified
MAN PLACED UNDER ARREST ON
SUSPICION PROVES COM.
PlETE AIIBl.
Others Are Suspected But There IL
No Definite Information - Breeds
May Be Implicated.

Isaac Bratton, who was shot while
seated in his, home near Flasher a
couple of weeks ago, is improving as
rapidly as can be expected and will
suffer no serious consequences.
The parties who did the shooting
have not been unprecedented as yet.
1t was at first thought that man
by the name of Carney, who was at
tentive to one of Bratton's daughters,
and who had been warned to keep
away from the house, was the man
who did the shooting and the sheriff
went to his house to make the arrest
but young Carney proved complete
salibi and was not arrested.
1t is also stated that Bratton was a
shrewd horse trader and that there
was a number of breeds and Indians
who have received the worst of the
deal on horse trades and who have
made an avoWnl to get even. 1t is
suspected that some OF these might
be the guilty parties.
Bratton has also had trouble with
members of his own family and it is
said that while he was living on the
sans farm with his wife and children
he occupied another house and it is
just possible that the shooting was
the result of a family quarrel.
Bratton will be ont of the hospital
in few days now and it is expected
tt,at he will swear out a complaint
against some one as soon as he is
physically able.
