nually since 1901, when Behring re-
ceived the prize in medicine for his
discovery of diptheria antitoxin
Among the recipients Of this prize
are Pawlow, Koch, Laveran, Finsen
Ehrlich, Metchnikoff and Kocher, II
has not been found practicable. to
follow the letter the direction of the
founder to give the prizes for the
most remarkable achievements of the
preceding year, this direction being
interpreted to mean recent achieve
ments.
Previous to this year two Ameri
cas- have received prizes, A. A. Mich
elson of the University of Chicago
in physics, and Theodore Roosevelt
for his efforts to establish peace be-
tween Japan and Russia. This year
for the first time the prize in medi
cine comes to this country. Alexis
Carrel, who brings this honor to
American medicine, was born in
France in 1878 and graduated as
doctor of medicine from the Univer.
sity of Lyons in 1900.
Shortly afterwards he came to this
country and worked for a year or
two in the physiologic laboratory
of the University of Chicago, where
he accomplished remarkable results
in the suture of blood-vessels, and
began his work on the transplanta'
ton of organs. Soon after the open.
ing of the Rockefeller Institute for
Medical Research in New York he
joined it's staff, and it is there that
he has done the work for which he
now receives the Nobel prize. This
has attracted wide notice.
The results he has obtained in eX,
perimental surgery, more particular
ly in the surgery of blood-vessels and
in the transportation of organs and
limbs, are characterized by The
Journal of the American Medical
Association as nothing less than
sensational; they show a marvellous
technical skill, perseverance and
scientific ingenuity at the same time
as they indicate possibilities of sur,

NORTH DAKOTA DEMOCRATIC
Roosevelt Running Second and Presi-
dent Taft Third.


Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 6.-Wilson
carried North Dakota by big plural
ity, returns received placing him in
the lead in almost every county
Roosevelt is in second place, while
President Taft is close third.
Louis B. Hanna, Republican, was
elected governor, having a lead over
F. o. Hellstrom, Democrat, of about
5000. w. D. Sweet, Progressive can
didate, showed up very poorly. Many
counties failed to report his vote be-
cause it was so light.
On the Missouri slope the strength
of the Republicans was greater than in
any other section and even there Will
son went into the old time strongbolds
for majorities In several counties.
For congress the Republicans have
been successful in the First and Sec
ond district, while in the Third dis
trict the race between Halverson,
Democrat, and Norton, Republican, has
become decidedly close.
The remainder of the Republican
ticket has been elected by almost nor
NAL majorities.

THE LIFE OF A PLAIN MAN.

Arnold Bennett in the Metropoli-
tan Magazine: The plain man on
a plain day wakes up, slowly or
quickly, according to his tempera-
ment, and greets the day in men,
tai posture which might be thus eX-
pressed in words:
ooh, Lord! Another day! What a
grind"
If you ask me whom l mean by
the plain man, my reply is that
mean almost every man. l mean
you. | certainly mean me. | mean
the rich and the poor, the success
full and the unsuccessful, the idle
and the diligent, the luxurious and
the austere. For, what with the
limits Of digestion, the practical i'm
possibility of wearing two necklaces
at once, the insecurity of invest
ments, the responsibilities of wealth
and of success, the exhaustingness
of the search for pleasure, and the
cheapness of travel, the real differ
ences between one sort of plain man
and another are slight in these
times. (And, indeed, they always
were slight)
The plain man has a lot to do be-
fore he may have his breakfast-and
he must do it. The tyrannic rou-
tine begins instantly he is out Of
bed. To lave limbs, to shave the
jaw, to select clothes and assume
them-these things are naught. He
must exercise his muscles-all his
muscles equally and scientifically
with the aid Of textbook and of
diagrams on large card; which
card he often hides if he is expect
ing visitors in his chamber, for he
will not always confess to those ex-
ercises; he would have you believe
that he alone, in a world of simple
tons, is above the faddism of the
hour; he is as ashamed of these ex-
ercises as of a good resolution, and
when his wife happens to burst in
on them he will pretend to be doing
some common act, such as walking
across the room or examining a
mole in the small of his back. And
yet he will not abandon them. They
have an empire over him. To drop
them would be to be craven, ineffi-
cient. The textbook asserts that
they will form one of the pleasant
est parts of the day and that he will
learn to look forward to them. He

The Saltwater Gazette says: "The
question of pensioning mothers is
one that appeals to many people.
Look about you, particularly in the
large cities, and note the misery,
want, starvation that is the result Of
mothers being deserted and left with
small children TO provide for, give
them an education and teach them
to walk in the straight and narrow
path There are some old fathers
who are going about looking care
worn and cast down, having the -ap-
pearance of those who have lost

are entitled to some consideration

WISCONSIN, LINES -,
UP WITH DEMOCRACY
Victor Berger, Socialist, Is De-
teated for Congress.

Milwaukee, Nov. 6.-Rock ribbed
Republican Wisconsin slipped out of
the G. o. p column and arrayed itself
with Democracy by giving Governor
Woodrow Wilson an approximate plu-
rality of at least 10000 votes over
President Taft. Returns from $50
precincts out OF. 2,215 in the state
give Wilson 72,409, Taft 51,S35, Roose-
welt 34,027. 81
Returns on the governorship fight
outside of Milwaukee county give Gov
ernor McGovern, Republican. a lead of
$4,000 over Judge John c. Karel, Dem
ocrat. Karel carried Milwaukee coun-
ty by about 10000. 1t is thought that
complete up state returns will give
the Republican state ticket plurality
of at least 10000.
The surprise of the election was
the defeat of Congressman Victor L.
Berger, Socialist, in the Fifth district
in Milwaukee county, who was beaten
by former Congressman William II.
Stafford, fusion candidate on the Dem
ocratic ticket. Congressman William
]. Cary of the Fourth district, Mil
waukee county, was reelected over
his Socialist opponent.
Incomplete returns indicate that the
Republicans have elected six members
of congress and the Democrats four,
with one district still in doubt. Con-
gresham Konop, Democrat, and
Morse, Republican, are neck and neck
In the Ninth. Scattering returns from
the Sixth district indicate that Con-
gresham James H. Davidson, Repub
lican, probably has been beaten by

FOR 1912-ALExIS CARREL.

The Nobel prizes were founded by
Alfred Nobel, Swedish engineer
and inventor of high explosives. He
directed that the income of a large
sum of money should be divided each
year into five prizes-in physics
chemistry, physiology or medicine
literature, and in work toward the
establishment of peace. His purpose
was "to compensate those who in
the previous year have been most
useful to humanity" regardless oi
their nationality 1t is said that the
value of each prize is $4,000.
The prizes have been awarded an

IOWA IS IN WILSON CAMP
II Ratio Continues He viii Have
State by From 1000 to 5000.

Des Moines,. Nov, 6.--Figures from
about one-fourth of the precincts in
the state in reference to the presiden-
tial ticket put Woodrow Wilson ahead
of Colonel Roosevelt by plurality Of
from 1000 to 5000, if the present
ratio continues.
Earlier returns had given Roosevelt
a substantial lead Of nearly $4,000,
estimated. These figures were based
on reports from the northern part of
the state, which had been conceded to
be the Roosevelt stronghold. Reports
from southern, counties. however, ma
terially changed the situation.

The Virginia Virginian says
Frank Kellogg is said to be great
trust buster. Mr.. Kellogg may be a
buster all right but, does he really
bust the trusts. He has put some of
the large corporations to great
deal of expense in defending law
suits and the dear people are now
paying the costs. Take for example
the Standard Oil company suit.
When the suit was begun gasolene
and other oils were much lower than
they are today. Gasoline is now re,
failing in Virginia for twenty-three
cents gallon and in some parts OF
the country at twenty-five cents
Anyway you figure it on this trust
busting proposition the people have
to pay the freight so to speak. So
what's the use." Never mind bro
Their Wilson is elected and all your
troubles will be overcome.

About 10000.

Denver, Nov. 6.-Returns received

substantial. plurality. These reports
on straight ballots give Wilson 22,SO1.
Taft 1906 and Roosevelt 1885.

of 27,000 in the state, Colorado should
