There is no stipulation as to how the

Possible Cabinet Members.

Princeton, n. j., Dec. 16.-PreSident
Elect Wilson is silent on the pos
sibIe members of his cabinet. Several
new names have been added to the
list of possibilities by those who pro-
fess to know something of the next
presidents ideas as to cabinet material.
Governor Wilson, however, will not
give any hints as to those he fayOrs.
Many names are mentioned without
any attempt to place the men in the
governors list. There is just feeling
that these men are of the kind and Suf-
ficiently representative of different sec
tons of the country to come under the
governors notice when he decides to
pick his heads of departments.
Among these men are Henry Nor
@enthau, who might 60 to the treas
ury: \. Mitchell Palmer, who has been
reelected to congress from Pennsylya-
MIA and who fought all over the state
for Wilson; Rollo Wells, who came out
Of Missouri to take care of the cam
paign finances; L. NJ. Mouse of Texas,
Homer II. Cummings Of Connecticut.
Robert S. Hudspeth of Jersey City,
Judge Martin J. Wade of Iowa, Repre-
sentative Albert S. Burleson Of Texas
and Mayor Newton d. Baker of Cleve-
land Joseph Z. Tumulty is regarded
as likely to be secretary to the presi-
dent after March 4.

To Turn the Earth.

New York, Dec. 16.-Carrol Living
ston Riker, an engineer of this city,
proposes in small book issued recent
~ to change the climate of the whole
Atlantic coast Of North America and
to alter even the solar inclination of
the earth. His plan is to send the
great heat bearing gulf stream I'M
chilled into the very heart of the arc
tic. The warm current, he maintains,
would melt the frozen polar seas, and
by this substitution of water for ice he
believes the earth would swing around
bit on it's polar axis and present to
the more direct rays of the sun the re-
gions that are now uninhabitable for
most of the human race.
Not only that, but he would at the
same time, he declares, open the ice
bound harbors of eastern Canada for
whole years shipping, do away with
the fogs Of the Labrador and New
foundland coasts and on the northern
Atlantic and finally put an end to the
great wandering iceberg on the steam
ship tracks that made the Titanic dis
aster possible. The total cost Of this
work he estimates at S190,O00,000,
sum far below the cost of the Panama
canal, and the accomplishment of the
work, he declares, will be much sim
pier.

Former Bride of the White House and
Her Fiance.

President Grover Cleveland intended
to marry again it was feared chat she
might leave Princeton following the
marriage. The possibility was an UNI
pleasant thought to the students of
old Nassau, for Mrs. Cleveland has
long been regarded as a part of that
university. Then it was suggested that
Professor Preston be given a post at
Princeton, and hope that this would be
so was heightened through the ia {
that President Hibben and Professor
Preston are close friends.
Princeton, after careful inquiry, now
has an adequate idea Of the type of
man who won the hand Of the late
presidents widow, and the verdict is
all in his favor. Professor Preston
never talks about himself if he can
avoid it and then very briefly and with
obvious intention of preventing the
casting of any sort of Il halo over his
head. He is fifty years Of age but
looks younger; six feet tall and wide
shouldered; forceful and has q sense of
humor that is sometimes grim; has
black hair Streaked with gray and a
black mustache; self made and well to
do; automobile enthusiast, plays a
good game Of tennis and is fast on his
feet.

Questions For the Next President.

Bismarck, \. D., Dec. 1S.-Former
United States Senator Henry Clay
HansbrOugh of this state, the man
who killed the Louisiana lottery and
put the harvester trust up for investi-
CATION, gives n list of the important
things with which the new president
Of the United States will be con-
fronted and comments upon them as
follows:
TRUSTS.-I would place the trust
question at the head of the list. for
the truth is the nation is trust sick.
TARIFF.-The country is not far
from equitable and satisfactory tariff
adjustment. The passage of just
law that will be allowed to remain in
force for IN indefinite period is a con-
dition to he devoutly prayed for.
MONETARY REFORM. - The gov
ernment is getting further and further
from Wall street every day. This is
due in Il large part to the busnessIike
policy of the present secretary of the
treasury. This declaration of indie
pendence on the part of the treasury
department is emphasized in Secretary
MacVeagh's proposal of few months
ago that the government stood ready
to furnish sufficient sum Of moncy
pto move the crops.
SOCIOLOGY AND CONSERNA-
TION.-These two are so closely allied
with the trust question that they can
not we'll be considered apart from it.

law which forbids the publication Of

on the iSthmus it is strictly observed
To insure this secrecy Colonel George
w. Cocktails put the inspection of the
forts. at both entrances Of the canal,

E~IHE nature Of the superintendent.
deformed like his body, declar-
/ ed ed itself self duly at every turn,
groaned and the other blasphemed the
greater the Zest and obduracy of the
driving force behind them.
Noon passed; the scanty shadows
heightened, and HOWE gave more
trouble Of an insensate sort. They
refined up and dashed him tighter: he
had actually loosened his cords. But
Stingaree seemed past remonstrance
with friend or foe, and his bound body
swayed from side to side as the little
cavalcade went ON at q canter to
make up for lost time.
He was leading now with the kindly
sergeant and his mind had never been
more alert. Behind them Numbered
the recalcitrant HOWE with constab BILE
and superintendent on either side.
They were midway between Mazeppa
and Clear Corner, or some fifteen miles
from either haunt Of men. Stingaree
pulled himself upright in the saddle
as by superhuman effort and shook
Off the helping hand that held him by
one elbow.
He was about to do a thing at which
even his courage quailed and he longed
for the use of his right arm. 1t was
not absolutely bound; the hand and
wrist had been badly hurt in the Sun
days fray-so badly that it had been
easy to sham fracture and have hand
and wrist in splints before the arrival
Of the police. They still hung before
him In sling, his good right hand
and forearm, stiff and sore enough, yet
strong and ready at a moments notice,
when the moment came. 1t had not
come, and was not coming for long
time, when Stingaree set his teeth.
Iurched either Way-and toppled out of
the saddle in the path of the canter-
ing hOOfs. His dashed feet held him
In the stirrups; the off stirrup leather
had come over with his weight: and
there at his horses hoofs, kicked and
trampled and smothered with blood
and dust, he dragged like an anchor,
without sign Of life.
And it was worse even than it look
ed, for the life never left him for an
instant, nor ever for an instant did he
fail to behave as though it had. Min
utes later, when they had stopped his
horse and cut him down from the STIR
rups and carried him into the shade of
a hop bush off the track, and when
Singaree dared to open his eyes he
was nearer closing them perforce, and
the scene swan before him with super
f1uouS realism.
Cairns and Cameron, dismOunted
while the trooper sat aloOf with
HOWE in the saddle, were at high
words about their PROSTATE prisoner.
Not a syllable was lost on Stingaree.
You may put him across the horse
Yourself" said the sergeant. Il won't
have a hand in it. But make sure you
haven't killed him as 1t is-traveling a
sick man like that"
"Killed him? He's got his eyes
openr' cried Cairns III savage triumph.

While Stingaree is speaking he and his
