date are making hOuseto-hOuse can
vases, soliciting the votes of women
and urging them to register and be
ready for the December fray. Harri-
man, the Socialist, is loudly claiming
the unanimous vote of all working and
business women, while Alexander is
counting the support of those who
have no occasion to labor out of the
home.
1t is a picturesque and interesting
situation, and it suggests many ques-
lions as to the feminine attitude on
public questions. viii conservatism
rule and the Alexander ticket win or
will there be a strong reaction from
long repression and will the verdict
be that Hartman with his antiphonal
ideas shall take the city under the
wing of Socialism?
If the newly enfranchised voters
wish really to study the situation,
they have plenty of Alexander pre-
ccdents. but only a single Hartman
one. for Milwaukee is the only city in
the union living under the baton of a
Socialist mayor The time is short
for investigation. and women are not
given to overmuch study. They lit
orally "iump" at their conclusions, as
rule. and it is not likely that the
present case will be an exception.
Los Angeles and the whole of Califor-
MIA are anxiously watching to see
what the frst"iump" will be.
And in the meantime, the women
are getting a taste of political power
and it is not likely that the taste is
bitter.-Memphis Commercial Appeal

PROMINENT ALBANIAN CRAZY
THOUGHT HE'D BOUGHT CAND-
LER BUILDING FOR GARAGE.
Wants to Run Airships for Summer
Tourists and Spend 100000
Advertising in Magazines.


ATLANTA-A well-known Allan
ia insurance man Of many years solid
personal and financial standing in
the community walked into a local
advertising agency this morning and
asked to see the manager.
He explained to him that he had
just capitalized a company at two
million dollars and bought the
Gambler building for the purpose of
converting it into a garage for flying
machines.
He wanted to sign a contract with
the advertising man for one hundred
thousand dollars worth of advertis-
ing matter to appear in northern
magazines announcing to spring
tourists that after May 30th all who
flew south would find strictly mod
ern and up-todate accommodations
here. He further wanted announce
meDts published in the local papers
that ell the Gambler building tenants
would have to move out.
The advertising manager was
dazed. He had known the speaker
all his life and knew him to be not
only man of fine business parts,
but one who never joked.
Luckily he called up the Gambler
office headquarters. No, there hadn't
been any sale, nor was any contem-
plated. The man at the Gambler end
of the telephone wanted to know if
the advertising manager was crazy.
Crazy? That gave the advertising
manager an idea. He telephoned for
cab and a doctor and for the insur-
ance mans family. They came, and
now the insurance man is strapped to
cot in local infirmary.
1t was nervous breakdown, with
mental disorders, which had made
him act queerly for two or three
weeks past, but which his family
and friends had not understood as
actual insanity until he announced
his intention of converting the big
gest building south of New York into
hen roost for aeroplanes Over
work is at the bottom of the I. ouble,

ton, Jamaica, went to make up a
part of the sea floor, and while a
new city rose upon the new shores
the old town is now given up to the
amphibious gentry. In 1907 the sea
swallowed up an adjacent section of
the coast and the residents of the
whole island will not go down some
day in an hour like scuttled ship.
In 1851 20 leagues of the coast of
San Domingo suddenly dropped, the
waters rushed in, and where there
had been apparently imperishable
land and rock there is now a bay.
In 1852 so square miles of coast in
Hindustan disappeared and has ever
since remained submerged with its
towns and villages.
There are countries which have de-
veloped elaborate civilizations in the
face of constant danger of an over
flow. Half of Holland lies below the
sea level, and is kept from forming
perfectly normal sea bottom by line
of slender dikes If the low coun-
tries should experience a seismic dis
turbance sufficient to shake down the
dikes it would be gingantic engi-
neering feat for whatever remained
of the Netherlands to recover the
submerged half from the sea and
rich cities with their priceless art
treasures, not forgetting several mil
lion human lives, would be irrevoca-
bly, lost

sea is far below the level of the wa

Laws of Compensation.
The sea, implacable as it seems,
has it's own laws of compensation,
however For every inch of coast,
for every island that it swallows up,
it lays bare a corresponding amount
of terra firma in some other quarter.
The famous Graham Isle, as the Eng
lish call it, or Inset Fernandez, as the
Germans named it, which came up
from the sea off the coast of Sicily in
1881, is an example of this system
of compensations. BY volcanic ac-
ton a great peak of rock was forced
high above the sea level to the as
constituent of mariners. The action
of the waves on the lava formation
gradually split the crater, and after
some years the peak was reduced to
shoal.
In the Pacific it is no novelty for
ships to see new islands in their
courses upon every trip, and equally
common for old landmarks, islands
where pearl fishers have built their
villages, disappear under the whim-
steal dictation of the ocean.
Even now biologists tell us that
the Atlantic seaboard is slowly 60
ing down, and it is just possible that
after two or three more civilizations
have arisen and decayed mariners
will peer down at the steel frames OF
towering Manhattan many fathom5
under the sea and tell each other Of
! the traditional glory that went down
with the skeleton city.

THE DEAD OF THE ESKIMO
BODIES EXPOSED TO BECOME
FOOD OF SAVAGE BEASTS.
Arctic HilltOps Covered With Skulls
and Bones Which Have Been
Bleaching Hundreds of Years.

Arctic HilltOps Covered With Skulls
and Bones Which Have Been
Bleaching Hundreds of Years.
The recently reported burial of
the skulls and bones of 1900 long
dead Eskimos in the Episcopal bury
ing ground at Point Hope, Alaska,
under the direction of Bishop P. T.
Rowe may bring about a change in
burial customs in the north. The
skulls and bones were picked up on
the surface of the ground just where
they had been left during many years
past.
All along the shores of the Arctic
from Cape Prince of Wales to Lab
rador and far into the untraveled
interior this apparently heartless
custom of leaving the dead a prey to
wolves and half wolf dogs has pre-
vailed from time immemorial. There
is scarcely ridge or headland in all
the vast territory over which the Es-
KINDS have roamed that has not
somewhere upon it place of skulls
There is nothing that impresses
the Arctic traveller more, declares
one of them, than these eVer-present
skulls as they stare out from their
dark moss beds on the frozen hills
of the northland. Some of them
have kept their long vigils through
centuries and crumble at the touch
like chalk Others are startlingly
fresh from the framework of the liv-
ing.
Grave Digging Impossible.
Tell your Eskimo guide that he
should bury his dead and he will tell
you that in summer water would
come into the grave. Tell him that
in civilized lands they sometimes Gre
mate the dead and he will be horri-
fed. AS matter of fact the custom
of leaving the dead on Arctic hilltops
to be the food of savage beasts is
natural and unavoidable. The dig
ging of grave in the far north even
in summer with the tools possessed
by the Eskimos is next to impossi-
BILE, for even in July the ground inn
mediately beneath the moss that COW
ers the surface everywhere is frozen
as hard as granite to an unknown
depth. Even where underground ice
is found the Eskimo would consider
the making of grave a useless ex-
penditure of energy and at the same
time cruel proceeding, the thought
of having to lie in icy water is un-
bearable to an Eskimo. So their
dead were left on the dry hilltops.
But it must not be thought that there
is no sorrow when death visits an
Eskimo village There are no more
affectionate people in the world;
this is the testimony of everyone ia
miliar with their ways. But they
typify the childhood of the race.
Their grief, like that of children, is
acute and is soon over with.
