SILER AND TARLTON
Open Breach Between Re-
publican Members of
Railroad Commission.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. 5.-The Re-
publican members of the State Rail-
road Commission split wide open to-
day when, upon motion of A. I.
Siler, the action of the commission
on December Is, when Col. L. P.
Tarlton was elected chairman, was
annulled and Siler elected chairman.
An open break between the two Re-
publicans came at the meeting of the
commission.
The order passed in Louisville on
December Is was entered on the
books to-day. and Immediately upon
motion of Siler reconsidered and by
the vote of Clarence Finn, the
Democratic member, and Siler him
self, Siler was elected chairman.
Col. Tarlton vigorously protested
and openly denounced Siler, request
ing him to never speak to him again.

a Kina's Umbrella.

The king of the Belgians once left
his umbrella in a hansom when driv-
ing to Brussels. This was returned to
his majesty a few hours afterward by

his honesty by King Leopold the sum
OF 100 francs. The astute jehu, how
ever. begged n great favor of the king,
Could be have the umbrella instead Of

OCEAN WAVES.
Curious Facts About the Irregularities
of the Tides.

Of the Tides.
10 the ordinary landsman tides along
the coast are most puzzling He has
been taught that the tides rise and
fall twice in the twenty-four hours
and that this depends in some mystic
rious way upon the moon. But when
Il occurs that In his travels he sees a
spot along the shore where there is
no tide at all he is at loss TO eX-
plain the phenomenon.
To be exact. there is only one ocean
in the world where the tides follow
the moon with absolute regularity.
This is the great Antarctic basin. and
the reason is that there and there only
IS to be found a sweep OF water en-
tirely uninterrupted by land. The
enormous wave raised 10y the moons
attraction courses round the world
south Of Cape Horn and the Cape of
Good Hope with absolutely nothing to
break 1t. In the northern hemisphere
great masses of land interrupt the tidal
waves and, combined with the shall
iowness of inland seas. cause them TO
perform aullCS Iuul SeeLu luOSt SL dhSS'
The depth of water has much to do
with tidal irregularities. Out in the
open ocean. when the tide is abyssmal
that is, about 5000 fathoms-the
speed Of the waves is amazing. Where
the depth decreases to five fathoms the
tide travels at a comparatively slow
rate. In England, for example, which
is surrounded by narrow, land broken
seas. the result is that the Britons get
some Of the most terrible and danger
GUS tidal races and currents.
The most formidable is the whirl-
pool between the island of Jura and
Scarba. on the west coast of Scot
land. This is known as the "Caldron
Of the Spotted Seas Here is race
running at speed to be matched only
by a mountain torrent. The force Of
heavy tidal current pushing up a
wide mouthed river causes what is
termed a bore" The most striking
example of this tidal feature is seen
on the Amazon, moving wall Of wa
ter thirty feet high and reaching from
bank to bank rushing inland from the
ocean.-New York Tribune.

ILLUSTRATORS WOES.
Errors That Were Pointed Out by Un-
feeling Editors.


Now what do you think Of that"
asked the youthful illustrator ruefully
as he tossed his comrade a letter. 1t
was from an editor, and its mandate
was stern. 1t said:
Dear Sir-Permit me TO call your
attention to the importance of reading
a story before attempting TO illustrate
it. l am aware that the modern artist
does not observe this rule. but it is
imperative in this office. If you will
examine the text of the story sent you
for illustration you will learn that the
army officer mentioned is said TO have
taken his fishing reel out of his haver-
sack. and you have made a picture
showing this Ofhcer-who. by the way,

sack strapped to his back. A KNAPP
sack. my dear sir, is not a haversack.
Furthermore. 40 army officer ever car

date?'

LEADING MISTAKES IN LIFE
Writer Has Recorded Ten, Of Which,
Most Of Us Assuredly Have
Our Share.

Some of us may be glad to be told
that there are only ted life mistakes,
for there seem to be SO many more.
but a recent writer has cataloguedi
them. Perhaps these are only the ten
leading ones from which tha smallck
errors arise. Let's look over the list
and see how many of them are ours:
First, to set up our own standard Of
right and wrong and Judge people ac--
cordingly: second, to measure the en-
toyment of others by our own; third,
to expect uniformity of opinion in this,
world; fourth, to look for Judgment.
and experience in youth; fifth, to en-
deavor to mold all dispositions alike;.
sixth. to look for perfection In our.
own actions; seventh, to worry our.
selves and others with what cannot.
be remedied; eighth, to refuse to yield
in immaterial matters; ninth, to re-
fuse to alleviate, so far as 1t lies in,
our power, all which needs allevia-
ton; tenth, to refuse to make allow
ance for the infrmities of others.

their remedies were of no avail what
ever. Then the families tried q drug
gist who was noted far and wide for
his remarkable cures. People came,
to him from all parts of the country
for treatment, but his medicine made,
matters still worse, as a last resort
they were advised by q friend to use

GRIM WAR SHOW GOES
ON At FORT MONROE
GAY SCENUE TRANSFORMED TO
UNUSUAL SPECTACLE.
Cause of Accident Ascribed to Defect
in Safety Device of Firing
Mechanism.

Norfolk, Virginia.-Fortress Mon
roe, which was gay with anticipa-
ton over an unusual military spec
tacle, is e~nshroudrd in the deepest
gloom. Col. 1'ownsley informed the
relatives of the eleven men who were
killed by the premature explosion OF
the big 12-inch gun in Battery De
Russy that he will await their replies
regarding the burial of the men.
The bodies will be shipped at the
expense of the government to the
homes if it is desired. Otherwise they
will be buried at the military
terry near by.
Despite the horror Of the accident,
several officers and men who were in
the battery at the time Of the explo-
sion are receiving congratulations for
the heroism they displayed in going
to the rescue of the injured men, al
though they themselves were hurt,
and in preventing the ignition of a
charge of powder, which was near the
gun awaiting another shot.
AS a result of the catastrophe,
which is ascribed by ordnance experts
t GA defect in the safety device of the
firing mechanism, designed to prevent
the discharge Of the gun until it is
raised above the parapet, an investi-
cation of this device. on all guns on
the coast artillery Notifications prob
ably will be made. In no other way
can the accident be explained.

scene. The negro had returned with
a shotgun. AS Mitchell neared the
place the negro shot him in the back
from behind q tree. He fell from his
horse, but lived long enough to tell
the name Of the murderer.
Citizens were soon on the hunt, and
by 8 o'clock 500 persons were here
from all sections. Posses were formed
and spread over the country in every
direction. Gentry was found hiding
in tall weeds in a cornfield, four
miles from Bolton.
He refused to surrender. Two bull
let's from the officers revolvers
brought him down. The crowd threw
ropes about his neck and dragged
him to an open space. Then he was
brought to Bolton, another rope
thrown around his neck and he was
dragged nude around the public
square with a horse in a gallop.
Wood and coal oil were set ablaze
and the body burned in front of the
courthouse amid yells.

was decided to send letters to every

actly what the compromise meant and
take action on the acceptance or re-

The terms of the compromise were
taken up and discussed in full by the

regarding the payment of 'shotfirers.
Under the proposed agreement the OPP

Is to pay the remainder of the cost.
In some instances this will amount
only to about 1A-cent a ton, while in
