Scientific Station At Pole.

With reference to persistent rumor of great interest to meteorologists, MT. H. A. Hunt, director of the meteoro- logical service of Australia, says in a personal letter: There was some talk before the Mawson expedition went south about establishing a per- manent meteorological station on the coast of Antarctica but what the probabilities or even possibilities are will not be known until the expedi- tion returns and reports upon con- idltions down there" A much bolder plan recently set forth by Admiral Peary in an American magazine con- templates the establishment and maintenance for a year of q scientific station at the South Pole itself. Me- neurological observations would be tho most important part of it's programme. From several other quarters come hints of the fact that there is a de" cided drift of opinion toward the in- auguraiion of a campaign of netahro- logical observations at fixed stations in south polar regions analogous to the one carried out tn the arctic regions l in 1ss1-22

TALKED ABOUT IN WESTERLY
Political Speculation Woman's Unbridled Tongue Gets Neishbors Into CoutVerdct of $1 Without Costs for Plaintif-ReitzeLWest Marriage

Tn addition to the state and na- tional tickets, the several paries in Westerly contemplate making nomina- tions for senator and representatives in the general assembly of the state of Rhode Island It has been practically decided that Senator Louis W. Arnold and Representatives Joseph T. Murphy and Albert H. Langworthy will be the regular republican nominees for re- election. The plan to nominate only democrats on the democratic ticket IS generally favored, while the progress sives and prohibitfonists will place in nomination strictly party candidates.
 Besides there Is a movement for an independent ticket locally. which may be made to include one-or perhaps two of the candidates of the regular par ties.
 It is plain that the main object is to weaken the political strength of Messrs. Arnold, Murphy and Lang worthy; each, with the exception of Murphy, Is more than a rd-termer, and he is willing to continue to serve the town in the general assembly.

 Attachments were placed during the summer upon cattle, horses, machinery and crops on the farm. An auction sale was ordered by decree of the court, but the sale did not take place, as an agreement was entered into which obviated such proceeding. By the judgments entered the suits will be settled.

Charles c. Taft, manager of the New Park hotel, was arrested Friday night by Chief of Police Brown upon com plaint of his bondsman, Henry Walton, who is owner of the hotel property Several months ago Taft was arrested charged with keeping liquor for sale contrary to law. He was found guilty by the Third district court and sen fenced to 30 days in jail and to pay a fine of $50 and costs. He appealed to the superior court and was found guilty.
