The Power Of This Rspulsivs Crestur.

In the tank with the octopus there
was placed a dummy" OF the same
specific gravity as "a man. and this was
baited with crab. Attracted by this
tempting morsel. the octopus made for

body toward the edge of the tank. and.
holding the glass with some OF its
arms. il dragged its prey beneath the
surface and crushed the crab shell
with its powerful jaws.
Il IS believed that these experiments
afford proof that the octopus can only
drag It's victims far below the water
near rocks to which Il can attach its
suckers. There is one spot in the bay
Of Naples where these creatures attain
large size. and now and then a fisher
man is reported missing II is thought
that such disappearance are due to
the unfortunate man being caught by
the LEG by a concealed octopus and
dragged under water In the case Of
such a repulsive and powerful creature
as the octopus it is difficult to separate
fact from fiction.

WANT THEIR MONEY BACK.
ArundeIians Think Since County Com
missiOners Ordered 1t Dog Tax
Should Be RENTED.

Arundelians want their money back.
Some weeks ago one C. C. Wheeler,
a dog catcher at Davidsonville, visited
Arundel-on-the-Bay and imposed tax
on all dogs at the colony.
AS the owners of dogs had previous
ly paid tax on their dogs, they OBJ
jected to a double tax and took the
matter before the County Commits
sioners, who directed Wheeler to re-
fund the dog tax collected from the
Arundelians.
The order was passed some two
weeks ago, but to date the money
has not been refunded. The Arun-
delians want their money back, and
Counselor James w. Owens, for the
Board of County Commissioners, says
he will bring the matter up before
the Board at its next meeting.

Music lovers will welcome the an
nouncement of the appearance here OF
Sousa and his Band. The famous lead
er and his sixty musicians will give
a concert at the Rhode on Saturday
afternoon Nov. IS. There is an infec-
tious air of gaity about Sousa con-
cert. The dash and brilliancy with
whica the band plays under the dis
tinguished conductor IS leadership are
irresistible. Sousa has an individuality
which makes the music attractive. He
! is always interesting to watch, because
be seems to embody in his conducting
all the essential qualities of the music
he is directing, it's rhythm, color, char
acteristic movements have been carl
catured and copied for nealy twenty
years, but none of his imitators has
ever succeeded in securing such preci-
sion of attack and such delicacy of
! treatment as Sousa obtains from the
musicians under his baton. In addition
to this, Sousa arranges his programs
with no little ingenuity as regards con.
trast and his soloists are always ar
fists of the first rank. The prices win
be 75c and 81, lower floor; so and Use
balcony seats. Reservation can be

GAINS IN BIG FIGHT
Report of Sanitorium Shows
Progress in Fight Against
the white Plague"
FEW DIE AT The INSTITUTION

The benefits accomplished by the
treatment of consumption at the state
tuberculosis sanatorium at Wales are
strikingly illustrated today in the re
port Of that institution. It shows that
about IA per cent. of the patients treat
ed in all stages of the disease are i'm,
proved and that 40 per cent. of the
incipient sufferers are discharged ap
parently as cured.
Four years ago this week the sana
forum was opened. The report of the
period from that date to September 80
1911, shows that 655 patients have
been treated, IS of whom remained
less than one month Of the $40 tc
which the complete treatment has beer
administered, 4s were received durin;
the fiscal year closing June 80 1908,
5o7 for the fiscal years 1909-1910, AM
I215 from July ], 1910, to septembe1
20, 1911. Of this 57o,1131 or 60 pc
cent, were incipient sufferers; SOS, Of
"a per cent were moderately advanced
and in 50, or Is per cent. Of the cases
the disease was far advanced.
Of the patients received at the
sanatorium during the incipient stages
not one death has occurred The re
port of supt.. j. ". Coon, shows thai
Of the liz ineipient cases, 81 or IS pei
cent, have been discharged apparently
as cured In tWenty-six cases the dis
ease had been arrested; in twenty-nin.
the patient has been improved, and II
only six eases, or 5 per cent, of thos
suffering in the first stages, have beer
unimproved.4
The mortality Of those received II

is OUT FOR GOVERNOR
Mayor Scholey Now Seeks
to Head State Ticket of
Democracy in 1912.
SpURNS JOB OF CONGRESSMAN

Spurning q nomination for a mere
office of member of congress, Mayor
Assemblyman Matthias ]. Scholey this
morning made formal announcement
that he was a candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for governor and this
afternoon with the bee buzzing loudly
in his bonnet he left for Green Bay
to confer with some of the leading
Democratic politicians in the northern
part of the state. The mayor declared
in making the announcement that he
had been assured hearty support from
many of the leading men of his party
and that he was hopeful of landing
the nomination. A prophet is not with
out honor save in his own country and
while Kenosha people may smile at the
desire of the mayor to be the head
executive of the state it is said that
iudicious advertising has been carried
on in his behalf in all parts Of the
state and that steps are under way to
form a strong organization to support
his candidacy. 1t is said that Scholey
is regarded as a very available candi
date for governor by the saloon ele-
ment Of the Democratic party and it is
expected that this element will cut a
big figure in the selection Of the can
didate. A year ago the mayor assem-
blyman was one Of the men named by
the Democratic state convention as a
possible candidate for lieutenant gov.
ernor on the Democratic ticket, but he
declined to seek this nomination and
at that time he declared that after
term in the legislature he would be in
the field for governor.
The record Of the mayor assemblyman
in the legislature was not such as tc
excite any great comment either fav-
orable or unfavorable, but it is Just
possible that such record would be
an asset for a Democratic candidate.
One thing is certain and that is that
while Mayor Scholey is the first ma
in the field for the Democratic nomi
nation he viii have plenty of opposi
tion as number of the old time
Democratic leaders seeing a possibility
Of Democratic success have planned to
enter the field.
