that he did not think it possible that
he would get into baseball again this

There is another old story about the

the old COW froze to death. BY March

MONTH OF MARCH
COMES TOMORROW |
Most Important Date for the Nature
Takers For March First Winds
up the Winter
Guessing.
THE LION AND THE LAMB
Backbone of Winter is Broken During
This Month and the Robins
Arrive From the
South.
THE LION AND THE LAMB

tomorrow marks most important
date for the nature takers, for It
winds up the winter guessing. Aft n
the dawn of tomorrow, the balances OF
the year will be easy to forecast or
prognosticate, but from the way the
ground hog gave the weather prophets
the cold shoulder this year and upset
their plans, there is some apprehen-
sion in the ranks as to whether March
first will do the square thing or repu-
date itself like the ground hog did.
BY the actions of the first day of
March, the weather for the entire
month can be figured out as accurate
ly as can the location of comet that
nobody can see, for if March comes iE
like lion it will go out like lamb
and visa versa.
But there have been times when
March came in like wild duck end
went out like guinea pig, SO that
the lion and lamb rule of predicting
the weather is about as sure as blow
ing cotton ball to see what time of
day it is. Sometimes it works out
right and some times it does not
April is the month of rain and
May is the month of flowers, SO that
March is now the only unknown
quantity until the good old summer
time comes. After March is over,
there is no more need of worrying
about cold weather for nearly eight
months. March is considered spring
month and spring officially comes OIL
March 81. Some time during March
! the backbone of winter is always
broken and it is very likely that tie
March lion does the breaking act
slipping up or old winter out in the
woods and cracking his backbone witt
one snap of his powerful jaws.
March is generally a wild month
| and there is no wilder animal than
i q March hare. which is wild as wild
can be and never referred to except
ing as wild The March lion is like
wise a fierce and feroc1ous beast
which has never bee seen or captured
and it remains for some mighty hunt
/ er like Col. Roosevelt to seek it out
and exterminate it. The March lamb,
however, is just the opposite and is
as mild as mild can be.
Out in the woods today, everything
is peaceful and quiet and.it looks at
this time as though March would come
in like a lamb, therefore go out like
lion, meaning that the first half OF
March will be mild and springlike
while the end of the month will be
blustery and fierce.
March is the month when the robins
come and probably during this week,
the little red fellows will begin to
arrive from the south and twitter in
the wards and trees and begin pros
pecting for summer home. The
robin seems rather too anxious te
move and generally has hard time
getting along for several weeks or
account of arriving too early in the
season, for

TACOMA, May 1S.-R. L. McCor-

nouncement of his withdrawal from

signed statement:
"To the public, and friends VINO

drawal from the senatorial race, ana
assign the reasons therefor.
81 feel certain that my chances
were as good as man could desire,
and know that a vast majority OF
the people of Tacoma and the south
west, and a goodly portion OF the vot-
ers of the entire state were favorable
to my election, hence my regret at
being compelled to retire from the
field owing to the condition of my
ewes. For weeks | have been unable
to read, and my medical advisers
warned me that the aduOus work ana
excitement of a strenuous campaign
might cost me total loss OF sight. MY
health and my family are paramount,
and hence, with the hope that Ia
coma may find a senatorial candidate
to take my place in the race, for l
believe that the next United States
senator from Washington logically
should come from Tacoma, ! hereby
withdraw as a candidate for the Unit
ed States senate"

JURY DISAGREES
In Case of Harry Lundberg, Sailors
Union Agent, Charged With AS
saultinu Capt. Smith

MONTESANO, May 2S.-The jury
in the case of the State VS.. Harry
Lundberg, agent of the Sailors Union
at Aberdeen, reported it was unable
to agree on a verdict at nine o'clock
last night and was discharged. Lund-
berg, who succeeded William Gohl as
Union agent at Aberdeen, was charg-
ed with assaulting Captain Smith in
the court house during the Gohl trial.
Whether or not he will be again
placed on trial is problematical, the
impression being here that the prose-
cutting attorney, for some reason I'M
known, does not care to push the case
against Lundberg. This impression,
right or wrong. is caused by the lax
manner in which the mistrial was
conducted by the state. 1t is said
that County Attorney Campbell was
averse to trying the case in the su-
perior court at all, but wanted it TAX
en- before Judge Bush in Aberdeen.
But. the alleged offense being COM
mitted in Montesano, this could not
we'll be done.
Little or no eXertion was made to
secure evidence or insure conviction
in the case just closed, the complain
ing witness, Captain Smith, not hav-
ing been summoned to appear to
testify, his appearance being due to
his having accidentally heard the
case was to be tried yesterday.

CONTROL SENATE
ALDRICH TO GIVE Way TO CUM.
Minis, SAYS Stone.
missouri Democrat Sings Swan Song
for Regulars in the Upper House
in Vivid Words. prOgreSSiveS ia
Be in the Saddle and New Order
Established.

WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator
William j. Stone, Democrat, of Miss
ouri, in the Senate yesterday painted
a picture of that body under what he
termed the new leadership of the
-'insurgents."
Contending that in the contest OF
last Friday over the long and short
haul provision of the railroad bill the
'insurgents' had won a signal vic
tory, he painted Senator A. P. Cum.
minis as occupying the placenof Sena'
tor N. w. Aldrich; Senators R. M
LaFollette, Hall and J. l.. Bristow
that of Henry Cabot Lodge, and
Knute Nelson. that of J. H. Galinger
He pictures Senator M. e. Clapp, the
-'bold black eagle of Minnesota" as
chairman of the committee on inter
state commerce, in place of Stephen
B. Elkins, while Albert J. Beveridge
was to be found exhorting his collea'
CUES to harmony and regularity and
J. p. Dolliver acting as musical di
rector, while the silver voice of Car
ter was to be heard sweetly echoing
in the chorus"
The Missouri senator outlined a
second picture-that of the President
receiving the new leaders, whom, he
said, the chief executive would be
quick to recognize if at all like his
Immediate predecessor.
They would be called into consulta-
tiCn over administration matters,
while the old time regulars were lett
to cool their heels outside with Demo
Gratis and other plain people.
There could be no question, said
Stone that the regulars had capitulat-
ed-that on the fateful Friday, the
thirteenth, Aldrch, Elkins, ct al, had
hoisted the white flag and henceforth
the former insurgents would become
the regulars.
The old regulars" had been done
for" Not only had they achieved a
victory over the regulars in the Sen
ate, but over the encouragement,
who drew the bill, and over the Presi-
dent, who had been it's sponsor.
In the House, even to greater eX-
tent than in the Senate, the bill had
been vitiated, he continued, so that
as the measure came from that body
it was a mere skeleton of the measure
the President and attOrney-general
had sent to Congress, and he hoped
'the fiasco would stand as a warning
to impertnent officials not to inter
fere with legislation
But while he congratulated the
''insurgents,' he was not disposed to
admit the prospect for the future was
any better under the new than under
the old regime. He had no faith in
either Republican faction, and ad-
vised the dissatisfied everywhere that
the only real refuge was in the Demo
cratic party. He characterized as a
"gratuitous and wanton insult, the
recent statement by Senator }. M.
Dixon that Senator Aldrich was re-
ported to carry in his pocket the
votes of fifteen Democratic senator's
