Democrat. He Is forty-seven years
old. In youth he had largely to make
the money to pay for his education
and In addition had to read all the
lessons to an almost blind half broth.
er when the two went through Prince
ton together. He practices law in
McKinley's own town of Canton and
was the only Democrat elected in the
county in 1898, when Mckinley reach
cd the presidency.
Pomerene was then discovered by
Tom L. Johnson. Finding that the
young prosecuting attorney bad ideas
on the taxation question, johnson pro-
cured his appointment on the tax COM
mission, Of which Pomerene was made
secretary. Next johnson put him up
for governor to defeat Harmon, who
savored too much Of reactionism to
suit Tom L. Harmon beat Pomerene
In the convention. but this year the
Canton man was given second place
on the ticket, a nomination he did not
want. Despite his election as lieu.
tenant governor he became candi.
date for the senate. Against him was
Edward w. Hanley, chairman Of the
state committee. Pomerene challeng
ed Hanley to Joint debates, and when
the caucus was held the honorable
chairman had but ten votes.
! Senator Pomerene does not smoke
drink or swear and has no vices ex-
ceps politics. He can be very arm on
occssion and is a good speaker.

Maine ! He h a Democrat Of the old
school and r. not q conservative is at
least safe and sane. He has run for

between Chiffon and Watson and those
coveted seats in Washington.
w. A. Blount, who IL to be the new
senator from Florida. has q unique
distinction. He Is a corporation attor.
ney who refuses to lobby for his eli.
ents In the legislature. He puts In
his brief in the case, and there his
services end. He is, attorney for the
Louisville and Nashville railroad and
various other concerns, but says his
connections end the moment he re-
ceives bis certificate Of election.
Former Governor Napoleon B. Brow.
ard, truly progressive Democrat, was
originally elected in the primaries to
succeed Senator Taliaferro, but died
before he could take his seat, and
Blount was chosen in bis stead.
Thornton's Election Sealed.
Two of the new Democratic senators
to oil vacancies caused by death are
John Il. Thornton of Louisiana and
Claude A. Swanson Of Virginia. Judge
Thornton was chosen after q peculiar
tangle. The legislature chose Gov.
ernor Sanders for senator, but after
1t adjourned he declined and appointed
Thornton. The question was raised
% to Sanders power to do this under
the constitution. whereupon the legis.
lature met once more and removed the
doubt by electing Thornton.
As for Senator Swanson, his career
has a tinge Of the romantic. When
boy his fathers financial reverses
compelled him to quit school and work
ON q farm, clerk In store and do
other things to earn his way. He
managed to procure university edu-
cation and went rapidly to the front.
Despite the fact that he 10 only forty
eight years old he has already been In
congress more than twelve years and
governor Of Virginia four years.
On March 4 there viii also be new
Democratic senators from New York,
New Jersey, Tennessee, Colorado and

gressive Republican from lowa-that

James A. Reed, who beat ex-Gov-
ernor D. X. Francis In the race to
succeed Senator Warner Of Missouri,
was born in Ohio in 1861. he first re-
moved to Iowa. where he was educat.
ed and studied law, and In 1872 went
to Kansas City. Twelve years later
he was prosecuting attorney of the
county and for two terms was reform
mayor Of Kansas City.
Because of Senator Elkins' death
there are two new Democratic sena-
tors from West Virginia. William e.
Chiffon Of Charleston, who succeeds
Senator Scott, missed by only one
vote being Democratic national COM
mitteeman in 1908. He thought he
had that victory cinched. but one man
betrayed him. Chiffon is not stran-
ger to Washington. where be Is most
popular. He is wealthy man. but
has not as many American dollars as
Clarence w. Watson. who takes the
short term so briefly occupied by Da-
Wis Elkins.
Watson Worth Millions.
Watson is a multimillionaire who
owns coal mines, vast expanses of
land, villages. fleets and railroads. He
is only about forty -four years old and
a few years ago created a sensation
in society by winning a cool quarter
Of million in prizes at the London
International horse show. Watson
started out early in the senatorial
game, travelled from county to county
and before the other aspirants had
fairly awakened to the fact said he
had things pretty much his way.
Then, when the elder Elkins died and
there we're two senators to elect, Wat
son tied up with Chiffon. and the
game was won. At least these are
the tales told in West Virginia.
One Of the exciting incidents Of the
contest was the fight of the entire
membership of the state
senate. As there are fifteen Repub-
hcans and fifteen Democrats the exo-
dus left the body without a constitu-
tional quorum. and Governor Glass
cock, a Republican. refused to recog-
nize the senate as legally organized.
So long as the fifteen Republican sen.
atcrs remain in Cincinnati. out Of
reach Of the West Virginia sergeant
alarms, there seem large obstacles

HOW TO JUMP TROLLEYS.

New Course Added to Curriculum OF
Chicago Public Schools.
"The theory and practice of Tipping
street cars" is the latest course to be
placed in the curriculum of the Chica-
go public schools. Mrs. Ella Flags
Young, the superintendent, is the insti-
gator Of the new move, which she de
signs especially for girl pupils.
'Flipping' is Chicago slang for
boarding or leaving cars while in mo-
ton. 1t is a practice pursued by all
Chicagoans. Mrs. Young hopes to pro
tect life and limb by teaching girls to
face forward while ''fiipping" instead
of backward. as women often do.
The course on street car conduct will
consist of talks ON the subject by the
teachers, perhaps with some practical
illustrations later on. Mrs. Young be-
lieves young women of the next gen
Grafton will be able to swing on and
off a car gracefully and with preci
sion.
"At first only boarding and leaving
the cars win be taught" she said, ''but
little later there will be instruction
on how to safely cross the car tracks"

That the mahdi has never been seen

How to Stop Heavy BATTING.

If this howl against free hitting goes
on suggestions like the following will
be in order:
Allow the pitcher to stand eight
inches from the home plate when he
delivers the ball.
Make the batters swing with hat
pins.
Blindfold men like Cobb, Mitchell,
Bates, Lajoie, Crawford, Schultz, Col
Inns and Speaker.
Call batsmen out on one strike.
Give batsman his base ON a dozen
balls.
Make the teams play on a twenty
runs-or-no-count basis.
Cut out singles and two baggers. If
a batter can't get as far as third base
on his hit disqualify him.
Count swats over the fence as sacri-
fee hits.
