Ny successors in the use of the
dynamite plant at Maxim had in
their employ a day Waterman, an
all-roUnd combination useful and
useless man, his usefulness and
uselessness alternating with the
alienation of his inebriety and
sobriety.
One morning, after a night Of
it, he proceeded to build the fire
in the laboratory stove. To start
up the kindling wood, he had be ,
in the habit of lighting a hand
full of shavingS, and then pour
ing on a little kerosene from a
tomato can, which he kept upon
a nearby shelf.
During that night, some one,
possibly one of the laboratory OPP
cratives, had placed a similar
can, filled with nitroglycerin, up
on the same shelf, to keep it
from freezing.
In periods of convalescense
from his various stages of intox-
ication, the Waterman had before
seen two cans upon that shelf, but
lie knew that one of them was
real, and the other a hallucina-

WON At BASKET BALL
Cadets Defeated independence
High 80 TO Is.

In one Of the fastest and rough
est games ever played in the drill
hall the Wentworth five defeated
the independence Eigh School
team last Saturday night 80 to
25. The game was the first of
the season and showed that the
cadets, while possessed of great
possibilities, have still much to
learn in the line of team work.
Frequently when one man was
outside his team mates would
make no efforts to get uncovered
and often at a free throw there
would be no Wentworth man un-
der the basket.
The visitors showed much bet
ter team play than did the home
team and would probably have
won had it not been for their
lack of familiarity with the
court and with the Intercollegiate
rules.
Martin did the best work for
Wentworth, but was Outjumped
at center time after time. Lii
at times played remarkably, but
did considerable loafing. Nigg
played hard while he was in the
game, but inclined too much
toward individualism. Charlton
showed up well, considering the
fact that he had practiced only
one afternoon.
Sermon, Bastian and Wallace
did the effective work for In
dependence.
At first things looked blu
for the home team. The visitors
made five points before the ca
diets realized that a game wa.
going on. Then for the res

Another Wonderful pigcOvery.

Another Wonderful Discovery.
Electricity, telephones, airships
and all the wonderful inventions
of this scientific age seemed inn
possible a few years ago. But
it seems there is nothing so inn
possible but what some scientist
will discover the means Of ac-
complishment. Prof. Emerson
has now discovered a preparation
which viii really grow hair.
Iowa people are amazed and as
founded by Emerson's new dis
covery for the hair. Emerson
said that one bottle of his new
discovery would grow a full
head of hair to its natural color.
The people did not believe him.
1t was too much to expect and
too good to be true. They had
tried all the highly advertised
hair restorers and had always
been disappointed and they could
not believe one bottle would
really grow a full head of hair.
But now comes the most start
ling part of all-for Emerson
proved it-yes, absolutely proved
it. What do you think he didf
He made the bold and remarkable
statement that he would give five
dollars to any person who used
one bottle Of his new discovery
and failed to secure a new and
satisfactory growth of hair. The
people were astounded by the
unheard of offer, but they knew
that Emerson was financially re-
sponsible and would do as he
agreed if it cost him his fortune.
Thousands bought bottles of his
new discovery, though most of
them had little faith and expect
ed to be paid five dollars for us
ing the bottle of new discovery.
Out of thu first thousand bottles
sold only seven claimed they were
not entirely satisfied, and they
Immediately received the five
dollars without question. The
rest Of them were overjoyed to
find that Emerson's new Discov-
cry he'd really promoted a new
and healthy growth Of hair. What

Revolt Against the Word nLadlr

The word female" was practically dis carded many years ago, and now the rrogressives of the gentle sex are in open revolt against the word lady A Chicago lecturer recently said, Nothing makes me so angry as to be called a '1ady," or to be told I am "ladylike." It is not compliment. am thankful l am woman
 The word that once was regarded as excellent and choice has been sadly mis- appropriated by some, until it has come to be considered a word that suggests arectation. and however excellent the word once was. it cannot well stand up under the charge of affectation.
 The course of words alike in both sexes. To be a man or to be manly has to mean more than to be considered a gentleman or to be gentlemanly. One word is now included and swallowed up in the other, for a person who is a man in the fullest sense of the word is a gen. t1eman and the latter word becomes su- perIuous So it is with the word "wo- man." That word has risen in pub lie estimation until it outranks any other word that can be applied to the softer sex. To be known as womanly covers the ground. and there is no room left for the discovered word 'ladylilke.' . When women revolt against the use of the word ''iadies,' all the rest of man kind will have to acquiesee in the revo- lution and proceed to drop it from their list of usable words

Senate or House of Lords

Capitalism in land does not greatly dif- fer from capitalism in trusts or railroads or monopolies of various sorts. If there is any difference that difference is in favor of capitalism in lands. England has the latter, while the United States has an overabundance of the former.
 The English capitalists put themselves into a class or caste and they set, or rather did sit as lawmakers in house of their own. The interests in this coun- try are far shrewder and they get by in direction much more from the people. The Ryans. Harrimans and Guggenheims put Aldriehes and Keans and Depews in the American Senate to do their work-to pass their tariff bills, and to organize in the long run their central bank. It is true one of the Guggenheims did take a seat in the American Senate, but that was mis- take which will not be repeated. The Guggenheim in question sees the mistake he made. He could have named his man, and through that man he could have obtained many more privileges than he dare attempt himself to get. He has in fact nut his entire family under fire, and it has probably lost its grip on Alaska.
 Tne American Senate and the British house of lords stand for the vested in- terests. Each has no proper function ex- cept to act. as a brake on the action of the house that comes directly from the people. and the American house of lords is much more cunnngly planned and con ducted than the discredited British house, ana that is simply because the privilege hunters put in dummies instead of serv- ing themselves. It is a fight in both between the people and privilege, and the interests in this country have shown the shrewder way of obtaining what they want. Germany has no upper house, neither has Russia nor perhaps score of other countries, but wherever there is one it is expected to stand for the vested interests while the lower house stands for the people. The interests in no country have so shrewedy planned an upper as they have in this country. and in no other country does privilege run rampant as it does here.

ONLY ONE RAILROAD
 PRODUCES RECORDS

Guthrie, Okla. March 15.--Only one rail- road, the St. Louis and Iron Mountain. responded today to the recent order of the state corporation commission sum moning the southwestern roads to pro- duce their official records showing the cost of operation in Oklahoma. The com mission then extended its order to April IS, requesting that the desired records l'e' produced on that date. ~
 The representative of the Iron Motn-l tain said he came to Guthrie to learn the full meaning of the order. He said his railroad wished to comply with it and other companies also wanted to give the desired information, he added. March , the commission issued suDpoenas against the It railway officials, which included several of the most prominent in the country and demanded their presence in Guthrie today as witnesses in the freight rate investigation that has been in pro- gross here.
 The commission desires to obtain from these officials information to perfect it's refutation of the findings forming the basis for the recent federal injunction is sued by Judge Hook ill St Louis re- straining the Oklahoma commission from enforcing the freight rates that have been established in Oklahoma during the past p months. 1t was admitted at the time that the commission has no way of forcing the foreign officials to come to Guthrie.

dinary rates--to the rates extended to all other countries provided the nego- tiations with France are favorably concluded.
 If 25 per cent be added to Aldrieh rates when Canadian products seek a market here. notably on wood pulp, the indignation of the Canadians will be intensified, and they will surely retail ate. This means trouble all along the border. especially in market towns, like Buffalo, Chicago and Duluth.
 No wonder Canada wants fleet of her own. She even wants Dread noughts. and in the debate the con servative speakers charged the liberal Dominion government with a desire for ultimate separation. Canada is by no means as small or as peaceful as she once was, and if this country thinks it can add with impunity 25 per cent to the outrageous Aldrich rates when Canada has products to sell to us, it may wake up to find it has a tariff war of good proportions on it's hands.

Illinois Direct Primary Plan

In a called session the Illinois legisla- ture has just passed the states fourth primary, law, the previous three having been thrown cut by the states supreme court. The constitution of Illinois pro- Legislature, and primary law No. was upset because it interfered with this sec ton in the constitution. To avoid this trouble and to placate, if possible, the supreme court and judges who are or- posed to primaries, the new law has been ing for the nomination by direct plural itv vote of all state, congressional, ju- dicial, county and municipal officers, and the second section providing for nomina- ticns for legislative places. The supreme court can veto the second section while it upholds the first section.
 The new Illinois law calls for primaries  of all parties to be held on one day at the usual polling places. Names are placed on the ballot by petition. The voter must declare his party utilization, and he must show allegiance to his party for two years in order to get the party ballot. It thus safeguards the parties, and it is expected that all parties will alike uphold it
 The bill has been signed by Governor pereen. and it will become effective next September. always provided the state supreme court does not discover some thing in 1t it can hang q veto upon.

Canada and the AldTiCh Tariff

While negotiations with France nromise concessions that will give that ro,,ntry minimum tariff rates at our customs houses, there is small prospect of any such settlement with Canada, pnd the time for action expires on March 31. The Canadians do not dis crirainate against us, and they do not feel that they should make special con- sessions in return for Aldrich rates
 The situation is alarming all along the border, and especially so in chica5 TO.
