Indeed. the good old man expects as

Science Notes.

The bright star in the west after
sunset is Venus, the large star seen
in the southeast at the same time Is
Jupiter and the big red star seen in
the mornings is Mars. These three

All bodies of organized matter from

send out straight lines of force-elec.
trical currents toward all other organ

these electric currents. Therein lies
the secret of Newton's attraction of

every organized body of matter, do not

other bodies of matter. These are the
forces that ply between the planets
and are called electromagnetic The
effects OF these forces in the earth are
called terrestrial magnetism and
changes in these forces cause the

Weather changes are calculated by
much the same methods employed in

Tho Old lima Senators.

A recent overhauing of desk in the
office of the District of Columbia
health officer brought to light small
volume entitled THE Medical Register
Of the District" which contained a
complete list Of the senators Of the
Thirty-ninth congress. giving their
weight, height and head and chest
measurements The author of the book,
DR.. ]. NJ. Toner, says in explanation Of
the table:
1T shows that w all the points OBJ
served our senator's exceed the average
of mankind in all parts of the world
as well as the average of our own
country"
From the figures given 1t appears
that the tallest senators at that time
came from Kentucky, the shortest from
New Hampshire and West Virginia
The average height was five feet ten
and half inches. and the senatorial
heads, measured little lower than
the hat is generally worn," showed an
average circumference of twenty-five
and a half inches. Fourteen of the
forty senators were six feet tall

WHAT ARE WE, ANYHOW?

Philadelphia tried an interesting eX-
pertinent with underfed school chill
dren. Fifty of them were given three
cent lunches for a month.
Yes, hot lunches, consisting OF ham
burger steak or Irish stew, with rice
or gravy-thanks to the kindness of
Mrs. Russell Sage!
The result? Those fifty children
gained an average of four pounds in
twenty-siX school days. The lunches
for the month cost rs cents per child
We are spending Sl,0O0,O00 on the
travelling expenses of government Off
cals every year. That amount of
money would put G0,000000 pounds of
flesh on the scant bones of 100000
school children. We are liberal, not
to say prodigal, in our provisions for
pensions, battleships and everything
pertaining to war, past or future. We
tax the nation hundreds of millions
year for the benefit of protected man
ufacturers, and we give away fran
chises worth hundreds of millions
more
Have we anything more precious
than school children who don't get
enough to eat at home? "Oh, if you
feed them you'll pauperize them!" eX-
claims the comfortable conservative.
Did we pauperize Huntington when
we gave him millions of acres of land
for his railroad? Did we pauperiza
Carnegie when we gave him a prohib-
litive tariff on steel rails? Did we
|pauperize Guggenheim when we gave
him mines of precious metal?
Why draw the line on the hungry

Indifferent, or just plain fools?-Dallas

ALEXANDER CHURCH DEDICATED
Large Congregation Gathered for Dedi-
catory Services-Rev. !. r. Belts,
Of Marlin, Preached Serpon.

The Methodist church at Alexander
was dedicated Sunday, an unusually
large congregation being in attend
ance. The church was built several
years ago, but only recently has it
been paid out of debt and reseated
hence the dedication was deayed
Rev. l. f. Belts, of Marlin, well known
to the people Of Bryan and Brazos
county on account OF his former resi-
dence in this city as pastor of the
First Methodist church, preached the
dedicatory sermon. The building was
crowded to the doors. Rev. Belts SER
mon was interesting and soul-stirring,
and was highly appreciated, not only
by the people of Alexander, but also
by the many visitors who were pres
ent.
The Methodist church at Alexander
is perhaps the oldest church in the
county. 1t was organized in 1857 by
about twenty pioneer citizens, all OF
whom have passed away during the
many years that have come and gone
1t Is interesting to visit this church
on account of its long life. While the
church building Is practically new, IN"
spot seems hallowed by scenes of re.
ligious life that have been enacted
there. Near the church is the Gem
etery where many of the pioneer
founders are sleeping, and the flowers
and evergreens planted here show the
interest manifested by the members
of today who have taken the place
of these older citizens in carrying on
the work of the Alexander church.
In the afternoon a delightful song
service was held until O'clock, when
Rev. Belts preached another interest |
ing and helpful sermon.
The dedication day program closed |
with the service Sunday night, and |
the church at Alexander free from
debt, has been dedicated to Him for
whose glory it was founded many |
years ago.

ustration of this IL the answer given in
all seriousness and sincerity by sue
cessful Cincinnati business man 70 a re-
quest to help the campaign fund in be-
half of the Initiative and Referendum:
IF this were for some charitable pur-

fit some worthy cause, / would look at II

subscribe anything towards this cause -
Here is typical, well-meaning busi-
ness man whose letter shows that he
knows so little about public questions
that he actually imagins that giving the
people power to remove the cause of
poverty does not belong in the same
category as some worthy cause" or
charitable purpose. He looks upon
contributing to a fund to obtain for
some individual an official salary. That
is a state Of mind, which, while not con-
firmed to any one class, is more frequ-
emily to be found among business men
than elsewhere.
Whenever there has been a legislative
body dominated by business men of this
kind, the result has invariably been bad.
Ohio especially has suffered from these
business mems legislatures and Cincin-
natl, worst of all. II was such legisla-
ture which passed a fifty-year franchise
act which has fastened on Cincinnati one
of the worst managed street car systems,

MAINE HUNTER REPORTS
DEER LESS PLENTIFUL
AND LITTLE DOING

NORTHEAST CARY, Me-, Nov. 9.-The
weather is warm here now and no snow
yet. Deer are very scarce and the
hunting is nothing like it was last sea-
son. We have seen some moose signs
but no moose yet We have some
pheasants and some deer. If the other
boys were as lucky as ourselfwe would
be ready TO go home. Some of them
come in with big stories but no deer.
One of the boys killed a fox.
The Portland lads have FIVE deer to
their credit so far. Albert Harroff and
your humble servant are going down
the river about two miles in the morn
ing and hunt two or three days, and
hope to have better luck.
We have not seen George Garman
since we got here. His party are in
the the section they hunted in last sea-
son and have not been heard from and
can't speak of their success.
Albert was sick for few days but is
all right now. Our guide cut his foot
last Sunday, but it is getting we'll fast.
The natives tell us the deer all died
from the effects of the severe winter,
the snow being six or seven feet deep.
We hope it will snow soon so we can
find them better if there are any left to
find. There has been very little as yet.
l was up the camp of the Marion CouD-
ty fellows yesterday, and they had two
nice ones.
Our car starts home the 23rd and we
will get home the 25th. Well, 1 guess
this will be all for this time.
