"Maslin" Bread.

Among many curious consequences of
the general election one comic result is
that rye bread, which played an important
part in the political controversies, has
become a favorite Wand of the House
Of Commons. 1t is also. probably from
curiosity. in frequent demand at most
London restaurants. Rye. now seldom
seen in England, was formerly grown a
GOOD deal in Lincolnshire. together with
wheat and barley. From the combined
flour of these three cereals was made
the ..maslin" bread. much appreciated by
Tennyson's Northern farmer" The
wheat gave strength. the barley sweet
ness, and the rye the quality of keep
ing moist for weeks. "Maslin," various

STOPPED CARNEGIE.
Mrs. Sage's Servant Mistook Him for
Designing Interloper.

Andrew Carnegie, accompanied by
Walter Raymond on the golf links today
passed the Raymond cottage now being
occupied by Mrs. Russell Sage.
"Ah. my old friend, Mrs. Sage" said
the ir0nmsster. Il should like to call
on her for moment and pay my re-
speCts.
He walked to the door and knocked.
The summons was answered by Mrs.
Sage's foOtman.
He opened the door far enough to stick
his nose out and said. without waiting
for any questions:
"Ah, no, no, sab, it's no use. sab, ah.
ah, Mrs. Sage does not receive any call
abs for nobody or nothing, and specially
she wants to see no newspaper report
no, no. sab, | reckon | can't do nothin'
for you today, sab. Goodbye"
With that he slammed the door in
Carnegie's face.
Mr.. Raymond came to the rescue.
Talking through the walls, he stated that
MIR. Andrew Carnegie wished 10 call
on Mrs. Sage"
At the name Of Carnegie the footman
could not get the door open fast enough,
and took up several minutes in BEG

The Jamaica FREELY.

The Jamaica FREELY. species over an
inch in length emits very brilliant
light which comes from the sides of the
head and beneath the thorax. The light
is fluctuating one and not the steady
glow of the glowworm. \ very remark
able fact is that this fluctuating or pull
sating light may continue after the death
of the animal. If we suppose that the
light of the living insect is due to oxy-
gen supplied under it's control to the
luminous matter we may conclude that
after death the oxygen of the air might
obtain access to it and produce a like
effect. 1t is difficult, however to account
for the pulsations in the light Of the
lead FREELY Globe.

The report by Prof. Kuhn of Halle
university, Germany, as to the results
on plant life of electrifying the soil,
disproves the theory advanced in Eng
land that grain and the various grasses
grown on soil charged with electricity
are inferior to the same products pro
duced under normal conditions. Prof.
Kuhn says that his experiments showed
Improvement through the electri6cation

When the House of Lords, by a vote
of 175 to II, adopted the Rosebery reso-
luton dealing with the hereditary prin-
ciple in the organization of that body as
one which should not be perpetuated
many of the members acted like men
making a concession for the sake of
peace rather than like men burning for
the hasty practical recognition of prin-
ciple dearer to them than life. 1t was
hardly to be expected that the Lords
would go further at this time than they
have gone. A campaign for reform of
the House of Lords from the Conserva-
tive side would be futile attempt until
Conservative government holds the
reins of power.

A dispute is brewing on the Atlantic
coast as to the invention of the center
board, which is said to have been first
produced by Salem Wines, in the early
twenties. but which has since been cred
tied to Cornelius Carmen. The subject
was more interesting when racing for the
Americas cup was between foreign keel
yachts and American centerboarders
but since keel yachts have been adopted
on both sides of the Atlantic, and since
abe steamer has supplanted the sailing
vessel in the coastwise and Great Lakes
trade, the centerboard has become a
negligible consideration. However, in its
day.. it was a valuable adjunct Of sailing
craft of light draft, for coastal service
and its real inventor is entitled to honor
for having shown sailors how to reef
kees as well as sails.

The French line which maintains
transatlantic passenger service out of

press service between Bordeaux and
Buenos Ayres with two steamers Of
twenty-five thousand tons, capable of
making trips at a speed of twenty-one
knots an hour. This employment of lin
ers which approach in speed the record
breakers of the passenger service be-
tween New York and Europe reveals the
fact that the trade with South America

that the steamers will do as large Il
passenger business as is now done from

from the South American republic the
French investors expect to prosper. 1t

of three and one-hah lengths. Last year
tie Oxford crew won by the same mar
gin, but in faster time over the course
the record being nineteen minutes and
fifty seconds. as against twenty minutes

English races are matters of wind and
muscle, as both crews are trained in Eng
Iish rowing, and know every inch of the
Thames. In former years there was
some difference in the stroke which put
the Cantabs in class with the Ameri
cans. who row a faster stroke than the
English oarsmen, and thus gave the races
interest ON this side of the Atlantic, The
annual race ON the Thames would have
more interest the world over if an Amer
Jean crew were regular participant.

purchased and will be fitted out for tur-
tie expeditions. The sea turtle has going
powers superior to his land brother, but
not enough to test the speed of cup-de-

yachts were purchased is that they were
offered at low prices and can be handled
readily in sailing through schools of tur-
ties. The Vigilant is of steel and Tobin

There are well-meaning people who
believe in the policy of paroling prison
ers In Kentucky the parole plan has
been carried further than i'll Wiscon-
sin. In this state men sentenced for
life cannot be released on parole until
after they have served twenty-five years,
but in Kentucky the prison commission
a few years ago granted paroles to four
men sentenced for murder. One whose
sentence was for life had served eight
years. The other three had been in duF-
ance for periods ranging from four years
to eight. The immigration laws pro-
hibit the admission to the United States
of men who have been conyicts in other
lands and have served their terms. From
this it might be inferred that Americans
are very particular as to the individuals
with whom they will associate. There is
an appearance of inconsistency with
this in the practice of turning loose con-
victed murderers under sentence for life
who have served only eight years.

Samuel Bartlett of Newfoundland to
search for George Callawell, who in
1908 started from the shore of Hudson
bay to cross northern Canada, and who

he plunged into the wilderness on his
long journey. The history of the ex-
ploration of the Arctic sea and the Arc

followed by relief expeditions, as in
every instance, even where individuals
have gone into the far north on their
own account, government has taken into
consideration the fact as it would have
profted by success, it was morally bound
to lend a helping hand in a pinch. There
are many ways in which a lone ex-
plorer can come to his end i'll a struggle

men who undertake exploration single
handed must be thoroughly resourceful.

Veteran Leader Of Indians Will Ca
wort. Around Initial Bag to
Exclusion of Younger
Talent, He Says.
LOCAL BUGS INTERESTED
William Leifield, Brother Of Famous
Lefty LeifieId May be Given
Another Chance on
Indian Staff.

Frank Belt, veteran baseball man
ager and chicken fancier, is to enter
the national game in a new role next
season. The pad artist has declared
himself in no uncertain tone, and
when he says that next season will
ind him cavorting around the initial
bag la Hughie Miller to ,he ex-
clusion OF younger talent, local bug
dom must certainly sit up and take
notice.
Manager Belt announced MS decis-
ion in this matter to The Gate City
Saturday evening in discussing plans
for the coming baseball season. Belt
is of the opinion that first base is the
place for him in the future. When
questioned as to whether he would
sign a first baseman or not. he re-
piled that the chances were that he
would not unless, of course, some
youngster of promise was presented.
This will make it possible for Belt to
keep from behind the bat and will
also cut down the teams expenses.
He will secure a regular catcher and
an outflelder who can do work back
of the bat when it becomes too bur
densome for the regular backstop.
William Leifield. the brother of
Lefty Leifield of Pittsburg, who was
given an opportunity of displaying his
talent last season in the early work
out, is to be given another trial. He
is southpaw and Belt believes he
is a youngster of promise. Leifeld's
arm went sore early in the training
season and he was almost unable to
throw ball. The result was mat he
was unable to stick and played but
little ball during the rest of the
season. Broadwell, another youngster
reported last season, may be given a
trial.
Belt received letter from Reardon
several days ago. Reardon has de-
cided to give up baseball entirely,
having written to the Keokuk man
ager more out of courtesy than any
thing else Reardon was the catcher
reported shortly before the season
opened He was in no condition to
play ball and failed to improve ply
sically when the season opened.
In all probability Belt will attend
the Central Association meeting in
Galesburg on Tuesday He has sew
eral sales in view and there is the
probability that he may get away
with good one.
During the past week the Keokuk
leader sent out about twenty letters,
but none of them have been produc-
tive of returns as yet.
Some of the wise baseball men, in
speaking of the Galesburg meeting
Tuesday declare that big changes in
the Central Association and Three
Eye may result. They say that if
Quincy is liberated it means further
shifting in the Central Association
and shakeup in the bigger organ
ization.
