Toilette by a large majority over
Samuel A. Cook of Neenah, placing
in the field the entire progressive
state ticket, headed by Francis E.
McGOvern Of Milwaukee and nOmi-
mating enough progressive state SEN
ators and assemblymen to insure the
reelection Of Senator La Toilette in
the Legislature next winter, provided
the Republicans are victorious in the
November election.
Returns on the three-cornered gu
bernatOrial fight between Francis E.
McGovern, E. T. Fairchild and Capt.
William Mitchell Lewis are as slow
in coming in as those on the sena-
tOrial fight. In the counties thus
heard from McGovern has a comfort
able lead over Fairchild, with Capt
Lewis third. Strange and Barker
were hopelessly Outclassed by the
other three candidates.
The feature of the gubernatorial
contest was the strong run made by
McGoVern in the county option terri
tory. The western part of the state,
where county option sentiment is
known to prevail, had been figured
by the Lewis managers as sure terri
tory. The Milwaukee Progressive can
didate succeeded in carrying a good
portion of this Lewis territory, de-
spite the fact that the same sections
mated county option candidates for
the senate and assembly.
Aside from the gubernatorial and
the senatorial contests, the most in
teresting feature of the campaign
and primary was the nomination of
the late Frank T. Tucker as candi-

jority over Stafford is between 500

lican nominees remain the same as

II has been stated that the Vatican
had been approached with the view
of selecting a patron saint for avia'
tors, and tAss N had been suggested
that Elijah would be an appropriate
person. The originator of the story
seems to have not taken into account
that Elijah was an Old Testament
character. and as such would be ineli-
gible. No doubt, going to heaven in
a chariot Of FIRE would have made
Elijah an appropriate patron. A Paris
contemporary suggests that sainte
Colombo should be chosen. Her name
alone has much to recommend her.

dimple in the side of her chin, and laughed
freely at some whispered addition to his speech.
She gathered her black skirt into her hand with
a gesture that was superbly graceful and natu-

quietly observant detected the change and
was certain that something had caused the
visitor to curb his thoughts.

ter. they walked out to the inner court and
seated themselves Their host, elated over the
discovery of the twelve fountains in his court
yard, called attention to them and hailed the
Arab porter at the door. Whitney watched
him as he approached and. fascinated with the
mans grace, thought as he came forward how
in keeping he was with the old palace He was
not certain, but it seemed to him that as the
servant halted he gave significant glance at
Buhammei. which the latter caught.
The Consul told the man to t"rn on the newly
discovered sprays, and the Arab with a gesture
turned away.
Buhammei rose as though tired of inacton
and stood erect before his host. Il am inter-
ested in old fountains" he said carelessly and
if you have no objection should like to accom-
pany your man and see how they are con-
structed."
Why. certainly certainly" the Consul as
sented Not much to see except lot of old
pipes. but you're welcome. Here, Ill go with
you.
Dick found himself leaning forward and
watching the Moor's face. He could give no
reason for suspicion, but had an intuition that
the visitor wanted to talk to the servant. That
his surmise might have been we'll founded was
proved bv the fact that the servant who had
halted half smiled at Buhammei and the latter

RATTLesNAkE VENOM AS CURE.
New York Surgeon Uses It with
Marked Success in Treat
ment of Epilepsy.

New York, Sept. 1.-THE use OF rat
tlesnake venom as a cure for epilepsy
is being tested by New York and
Philadelphia surgeon. Preliminary re-
ports show that the venom has re-
suited in marked benefit to all OF the
patients so far treated. Epilepsy is
classed among the incurable diseases
and requires the most persistent treat
ment to ameliorate the condition OF
those afflicted.
A preliminary report of the results
of the venom treatment, which was
discovered accidentally as a result OF
a snake bite suffered by an epileptic
in Texas two years ago, has just been
made to local medical society by DR..
Ralph Spangler, of Philadelphia.
THE venom when given hypoder-
mically,' he says. makes profound
impression on the nervous system. |
am convinced from my limited expert
ence with its use in epilepsy that
there is a distinct possibility of our
having in this therapeutic agent a
drug on which further medical investi-
cation and study may be the means
of modifying the commissions in cpl
leptie attacks and possibly effecting a
cure in many cases"

PATTERSON QUITS RACE.
Candidate for Third Term as Governor
Withdraws "for the Good Of
the Party"

Nashville, Tenn. Sept Gov
ernor NJ r. Patterson Saturday night
withdrew from the race to succeed
himself as governor of Tennessee.
Governor Patterson was the. nominee
of the regular faction of the demo

posed by the independent statewide
prohibition democrats, who, in coali-
ton with the republicans, elected a
state judiciary last month defeating a
ticket for which Governor Patterson
made a strenuous campaign of the

pendents meet here in state conven-
ton a majority of the delegates COM
ling instructed to vote for the indorse-
ment of B. w Hooper, the republican
nominee for governor. Governor Pat
terson, in his address announcing his
withdrawal, declares that he will not
be an obstacle in the way of his
party's success at the polls, nor VIII
he willingly contribute in any way to
the possibility of success of the repub
licans in Tennessee. He withdraws in
the interest of harmony and that dem
ocratic factions may get together to
prevent the loss of the state in No
vember.
Pattersons political career has been
a stormy one, including his defeat of
former Senator Il. W. Carmack for the
gubernatorial nomination in sensa-
tional campaign followed by the kill
ing of Carmack here by the Coopers.
