the basis of their theory, and that is: From each according to his ability, to each according to his need If one takes from another by force what the other has too much and the taker needs, we call it robbery; if he takes it by stealth, we call 1t either burglary or larceny; and the same would be true of a government, if it took prop erty without compensation except in case of taxation, which is levied for the support of the government and for the protection it affords to citizens. No, my friends, the American people do not want something for nothing, nor do they want charity or 'gener- osity' from paternal government.
 "All the American people want Is even and equal justice, equal oppor- tunity and freedom from the oppres- sion of trusts and monopolies, and this can be realized through Democracy, whose basic principles have always been and are now, The greatest good to the greatest number, and equal and even handed justice to a!p, therefore do not throw away your vote by vot- ing for Hunter but vote for Baldwin and the entire Democratic ticket"

eeIivia's Electrical Storms.

Owing to the peculiar typographical formation of Bolivia, electric and other phenomena are of constant occurrence, the principal zone where such dis 'turbances take place being the Att planicie, or grand plateau. As the at mosphere is heavily charged with cleo tricity both in summer and winter. dry or electric storms are of frequent occurrence both on the plateau and in the valleys. Before the rainy season sets in electrical accumulation becomes considerable on the plateau region, its most violent manifestations taking place toward the eastern section of the tablelands. An electrical storm in these regions is always a most imposing spectacle, as the tremendous force of the wind. almost equal to hurricane. and the heavy electrical accumulation in the clouds produce terrible atmos- pheric explosions and violent detona- tions, while the surface of the ground sparkles and crackles.

Wasted All Three Wishes.

An Irish legend has it that good fairy once visited an old couple and promised them that any three wishes they would make would be granted. After racking their brains for some time in an endeavor to discover what they desired most the couple decided to visit the county fair to see if some thing there would suggest what they wanted. They did so, and, after ram bling. around all day and not seeing anything that exactly suited them. to- ward evening they found themselves before display of kitchen utensils. Among them was a soup ladle, cheap. but likely to appeal to a woman. so the old woman in an absent moment said "Oh, wish l had one of those." and immediately she had 1t. The old man was so enraged because his wife had thoughtlessly thrown away one valua- ble wish that he retorted, '1 wish that was stuck down your throat" and i'm mediately this was done. Thereupon he was at once sorry at what he wished, and the only thing left to do was to wish the ladle out again. Sc all three wishes went for naught.

How Snakes Get Over Ground.

Although the snake appears to have no legs or feet. it may be said to be practically supplied with upward of a hundred pairs of them. In fact. each joint of the backbone bears a pair of ribs. which are mobile and have their points attached to the inner surface of sone of the large transverse, platelike scales which clothe the undersurface of the body. Thus by the movements of the ribs attached to it each plate can be drawn forward and its margin applied to the ground. By the success sive application of these multitudinous plates the body can be drawn forward in straight line without it's being thrown into undulations from side to side. But rapid movements are also ef- fected by such undulations. and ser pents can by pressure and appropriate muscular action climb trees and some times spring forward. They also swim easily by lateral fexures. but no ser pents advance by vertical bendings of the body, though they are so often drawn in such an attitude.

REVOLUTION RUM0RS STILL
 STIR SPAIN
Especial from United Press. !

NoPOSA1i IT AOIh FTGSS.D
 London, Nov. 3-Despite the official denial that there has been any rev. olutionary activity in Spain, it is known here that the government is heavily reinforcing the garrisons at Barcelona, Saragossa and Sabadell. Moreover. the troops, sent into these revolutionary centers. are being drawn rom portions of the army that are recognized as intensely loyal An ad- dlt1onal 10000 loyal soldiers have been mob1llzed under arms in Madrid. The government announces that they were summoned to the capital to partici- pate in a monster memorial to the victims of the battle of Melilla, last year. However, no suggestion that such memorial service was in con- temptation had ever been made until rumors of a revolution reached the outside world, and it is believed here that the memorial" is merely a sub- terfuge to fill Madrid with troops without exciting the anger of the populace. In the meantime, a strike has been ordered all over Spain, and the order is generally being obeyed
 Thousands of workmen have laid down their tools and business is be- ing greatly depressed.
 The military government in Sabadell and Saragossa is rigidly censoring Out-golng teIegramS especially those in code or addressed to newspapers. No ln-going "queries,' asking correspon- dents for the true situation, are being delivered in those cities. and mail from Spain shows that 1t has been thoroughly ransacked and objection able matter expunged before allowed to leave the country.
 The newspapers in London, today, refer to the ,rumors they have receiv- ed of an attempt on the life of AL fonso but declare that these reports are unconfirmed.
 A despatch from Madrid says that the Republicans have been tampering with the garrison at Badajos, in an effort to win the soldiers over to the revolutionary cause. High officials are said to have been implicated in the plot, Mayor Santos being under arrest for trying to gain the consent of officers to the revolt.
 Senor BlasquoZ, president of the Federation of young Socialists, is un- der arrest for making an anti-mili- tary speech at a mass meeting held to protest against the arrest of Pro- lessor Ovejero, of the University of Madrid.
 Out of the tangled web of fact and rumor, the situation may be summed up thus: something unQuestionably has happened that has dreadfully alarmed the Spanish government. and an explosion is momentarily likely.

Vacation by Think,

Make a compact with your soul to take vacation and the way is simple
 There are portions of your time over which you have control. Probably your evenings and your Sundays are your own. Set apart month or so
 Eliminate the self assigned tasks fol those hours out of business and give yourself up to the pursuit of pleasure
 Get others to join you. Call vacation club. Adopt real vacation spirit and go in for good time. Resolve never to speak of work out of business hours
 but to fill to the full that time which is your own with recreations which most appeal to you. Did you ever sing! Sing now. Did you ever paint? Paint now. Remember natures gifts to you and find occasion to praise nature within as well as without.-Exchange.

o Joint memorial service at Calumet
on Sunday afternoon, May 90, in MEM
DRY of the departed members of both
organizations. At a meeting held re-
Gently in Calumet the suggestion was
advanced that it would be n good idea
for the Hancock and Calumet aeries
to unite i'm a union service, similar to
those held annually by the Elks, and
the project meets with much favor To-
cally. Further consideration of the
proposal will be had at meeting to be
held before the date mentioned and II
is thought likely that the suggestion
will be carried out. The regular Ea-
giles memorial day falls on the first
Sunday i'm May, but on account of the
fact that weather conditions in upper
Michigan are usually unfavorable for
an observance at this period. dispen-
sation was secured from the state
grand lodge few years ago permitting
upper peninsula lodges to have their
memorial services on any Sunday In
the month of May.
