IN POLITICS

James E. Martin. known throughout
New Jersey as the farmer Orator"
and follower of the political fortunes
of William J. Bryan, has formally de-
clared himself a Democratic candidate
for the United States senate, to sue
coed John Kean. He expects his name
to go on the ballot in the State primary
this month
The new chairman of the Democratic
executive committee of Texas is Colonel
Sheb Williams of Paris. Colonel Will
liams is a farmer and business man.
and his election to head the State com
mittee has brought 10 light the fact
that it is the first time in the history
of that body that its chairman has been
chosen from outside the legal profess
sion.
Colonel Samuel P. Colt, who is said
to be slated by the Republican party
OF Rhode Island to succeed Senator
Nelson w. Aldrich, is of the millionaire
class. In his early career he practiced
law and for three years he was attor-
ney- general of Rhode Island. In 1888
he reorganized the National Rubber
Company. now known as the rubber
trust, since which time he has been
rated as many times millionaire
The Swedish government is holding
out all kinds of inducements to its
| straying native sons in order to get
them back to the old country The
agents in this country are attempting
to come in personal contact with the
Swedes here.

The first public test of the air pump
was in 1854 by its inventor, Otto Won
Guericke. in the presence of Emperor
Ferdinand of Germany. Guericke ap
piled the carefully ground edges of
metallic hemispheres. two feet in d.
ameter, to each other. After exhaust
ing the air by his apparatus he at
tached fifteen horses to each hemi-
sphere. In vain did they attempt to
separate them because of the enor-
nous pressure OF the atmosphere. The
experiment was great success.-Craw-

George Roumas. the Greek wrest-

defeated Tony Consaldi, the Italian, in
two straight falls last night at Bau-
kus hall in as pretty a match as has
ever been pulled off in Gary.

but Roumas showed the better head
and from the time he entered the ring
he was cool and collected and seemed
to know that he would be victor in
good season If he waited his chance
Consaldi was the aggressor through
QUIT match and although he showed
clever work at times he wasted his
strength in trying to throw the Greek
with useless holds.
1t was a large crowd that gathered
in Baulkus hall last night. and the pro-
gram that was offered the patrons was
we'll worth the price of admission. Both
Roumas and Consaldi had large follow

was wagered the outcome OF the
match.

Th. WAYS Of Moles,

Among common animals few have
been less studied in their life history
than the mole. An English natural
list, Mr.. Lionel E. Adams, says that
under the fortress" which the mole
constructs above the surface of the
ground will always be found series OF
tunnels running out beneath the ad-
iacent field. A curious feature almost
invariably found is perpendicular rur
