The New York Globe, commenting
on the Illinois legislative scandal. says
that the majority OF the Legislators
who voted for Lorimer for United
States senator did so honestly, but
that his majority was so small that
II is practically destroyed, II the pres
ent criminal charges against mem
bers are sustained. Neither in Him
DIS nor out of it will there be dispo-
sition to PREJUDICE these cases." the
Globe says, 1.-THE accused are entitled
TO a free and fair hearing and to have
reasonable doubts constructed in their
favor. 1t is true that Lorimer is an
Objectionable kind OF boss. and that
he has been mixed up with unsavory
political scandals. 1t is also true that
he represents the kind of politics
which is bipartisan In times of stress
and a sham battle when affairs are
running smoothly. But there is no
law against the election of a boss
even a bipartisan one-to the senate.
His title is not assailable on general
grounds. But If it shall appear that
he owed his election to bought votes,
even though It Is not demonstrated
that he furnished the money and sup
ervised its distribution. a case war

A canvass of Democratic editors
made recently by the Chicago Tribune
revealed the fact that Mr.. Bryan Is
still, to many, the one dominating fig
ure in the outlook of that party.
Touching upon this, the Commoner,
Mr.. Bryan's newspaper, after express
sing his appreciation of the compli-
ment paid him declares that the re-
suit of the poll should be regarded
"as an indication that a larger num-
Der of editors are still uncertain as to
who will be most available-that they
had not yet decided on candidate"
and adds: "As Mr. Bryan is not a
candidate and never expects to be a
candidate again, he can, without be-
ing misunderstood, commend the at
titude of those who are awaiting de-
Velopments. He is in that attitude
himself"
That is to say, If an Interpretation
OF this language be at all necessary,
Mr.. Bryan confesses that he Is very
much interested in what the political
future has In store for him, but is not
at present trying to shape 1t, and has
not the remotest idea what It may be.
Mr.. Bryan is wiser in this respect
than many of his opponents and not a
rev of his friends. For the Democrat
lie party as well as for the Republican
party the future is at present more
than ordinarily dim. 1t lies without
the power of the most penetrating po-
ntical vision to detect even a clew
mat might lead to positive results
we are approaching an election that
VIII send many of both parties into
enforced retirement. The old leader
snip is crumbling: a new leadership Is
not only possible but inevitable.

Buried Landscapes.

One of the most curious results OF
geological exploration is the discovery
of buried landscapes" by which is
meant parts of the former face Of the
earth now covered under later depos-
it's. but yet retaining so many of their
original features that the geologist can
ideally reconstruct the scenes that
would have been presented to the eye
of man if he had been present among
them Sometimes buried landscapes
exist in countries now densely inhabit-
ed Investigation has shown that one
lies beneath the region in England
known as Charnwood forest. The
rocky projections seen there are the
peaks and areteS Of buried mountain
chain belonging to the old red sand
stone period. Several different phases
in the history of this landscape have
been traced At one time it contained
salt lakes and desert eXpanses. In its
modern form it is pastoral region.

A Coin In the Sea.

A coin dropped into the sea will sink
to the bottom. however deep it is. Ow-
ing 20 the fact that the metal is heavier
than the volume of wafer it displaceS.
It is common but mistaken notion
that the density of the sea increases
with its depth and consequent pres
sure. as does the density of the atmos-
phere. which we all know is greatest
at the earth's surface The air. how
ever. like all gases. is elastic and when
under pressure (as with its own
weight) shrinks in volume and gains in
density. Water. on the other hand, is alb
solutely incompressible. and. although
the pressure in the sea increases at the
rate of one pound for every two feet
we descend. the density of the water re-
mains the same; consequently the pen
ny continues to outweigh the water it
displaces. and the coin sinks until it
finds a solid resting place. The pres
sure of the water has no influence at
all on the coin. acting as it does on all
sides equally.

Decline of the Mustache.

Permission to wear a mustache was
eagerly sought after in the middle Of
the last century. But now the virile
decoration is discarded. Why? In
those old days the Bank Of England
would not allow its employees to wear
it and issued an order which might
have come more appropriately from a
bank of Ireland. 1t was to the effect
that the mustache was not to be worn
in business hours! A large drapery
firm in London objected not only to
the mustache, but to hair parted down
the middle. There is more tolerance
now. Men look younger when clean
shaved. They are also more readable
without the protection given by the
mustache to the upper lip. If hearts
can be worn on sleeves thoughts can
be read on upper lips. But is it always
wise to leave the legend unhidden?
Men seldom like to be OWNED. as La
Rochefoucauld remarked once and for
all time.-London Express.

An Old Alarm Clock.

At Schramberg. in the Black forest,
there is a respectable alarm clock that
warned sleepers it was time to get up
when Charles l. was king Of England.
This was made in 1850. and it is deem
ed a remarkable piece of workman
ship. In form it resembles a lantern
wherein is a lighted candle, the wick
of which is automatically clipped ev-
cry minute by a pair of scissors. The
candle is slowly pushed upward by a
spring. which also controls the mech
anism Of the clock. and at the required
hour Of waking an alarm is sounded,
and at the same time the movable
sides of the lantern fall. and the room
is flooded with light.
