The senatorial contest in MISSISSIPPI

former Governor Vardaman to succeed

manager of Colonel Roosevelt's pre-
convention campaign, is another OF
the states that is placed in the doubt

and Democrats.
Senator Norris Brown of Nebraska,
is among those slated for retirement.
If the Republicans control the Nebras-
ka Legislature to be elected this fall
Congressman George w. Norris will
be named to succeed Senator Brown.
In the event of Democratic success
the next senator will be former Gov
ernor Ashton C. Shallenberger.
When Senator Nixon of Nevada, Re-
publican, died few weeks ago, Gov
ernor eddie appointed Judge w. A,
Massey to succeed him. Senator Mas
seys term will expire on the election
of his successor by the legislature
next winter and the Democrats are
confident they will capture the 1egis-
lature, thus giving Senator Newlands,
the other Nevada senator, a Demo
cratic colleague.

Democratic choice.
The future of Senator Frank o.
Briggs of New Jersey is in doubt.
The state is regarded as very hopeful
ground by the Democrats, particular
ly since the nomination of Governor
Wilson for president. The Republican
party is badly split into rival factions,
which fact is giving additional en-
couragement to the Democrats.
A Democrat will of course, be Sc
lected to succeed Senator Simmons,
of North Carolina. Senator Simmons
is a candidate for reelection and is
opposed by Governor w. w. Kitchin.
Senator Owen of Oklahoma is en-,
gagged in a bitter fight for reelection

at last accounts a Roosevelt recruit,
received the Democrat Endorsement
for the senatorship in the primary.
The situation in Tennessee is inter
esting and is likely to become more
so before the senatorship is settled in
the November primary. So far the
Democrats appear wary of measuring
lances with former Governor Malcolm
r. Patterson, who seeks the seat
made vacant by the death of Senator
Robert L. Taylor and now filed by
Newell Sanders, Republican ap-
pointee of Governor Hooper. So far
Judge Floyd Estill appears as the on
ly rival to Ex-Governor Patterson for
the Democratic Endorsement. Patter-
sons connection with the Carmack-
Cooper case is regarded as likely to
rekindle all the bitter factional strife
within the Democratic party in Tenn
essee, with the result that fusion con-
troll of the legislature and the cleo
! ton of an Independent candidate for
United States senator are regarded as
possibilities.

MINED THE ROAD.

EE
 The VoIunteses Wiped Out tho Foe, but
 It Wa. Sad Story.
 "I can tell you the saddest thing that happened during the whole war;" said an old negro to a group of listeners. The story was this. One night 1t was reported that the town was in peril of attack from the enemy, and the fight ing forces were quickly mustered. One of the volunteers conceived the idea of mining the road and touching the fuse in time to annihiIate the foe. There was plenty of powder. and the scheme was adopted. The rest of the defend CTS stood some on one side of the road. some on the other. ready to discharge their rifles into what might be left of the asSaiiants.
 z The day passed without incident, but as the night wore on the strain of the situation began to tell on the nerves of the defenders. Presently. however. there was the sound of hoofs on the highway. approaching rapidly. Such was the state of mind of the defenders that the sounds appeared to indicate the coming of mighty cavalry force. It was a terrifying moment A vivid fash lighting up the scene as the first horseman reached the spot told that the mine had been exploded and 1t had done it's work There was not vestige of an army to be seen when the smoke cleared away excepting the scattered fragments of big black mule.
 The party laughed as the old man concluded his tale. That's a good enough story" said one of them, ''but what was there so sad about itT'
 Tt was my mule, sahi' was the old negro's pathetic reply.

 Dr. J. s Hitchcock, inspector of the state board of health, has been here discussing with the local board the advisability of a pesthouse. A recent law makes it obligatory in towns of population of 5000 or more to have such a building, where oonta- gious cases may be isolated. The population of this town falls several hundred short of 5000 aud therefore no obligation rests upon it The state board thinks it possible, however, that some towns where there is need may combine in establishing an iso- lation hospital, sharing the expense. It was that possibility which was dis. cussed. Nothing definite has been proposed, but the matter is under con- sideration.

Three or four languages strove for mastery in ancient Gaul. which is now France. German was spoken by the 12,0O0 Frank invaders. Popular Latin was spoken by 6.OOO.OOO Gallo Romans Literary Latin was the language of the church and of literature. Low Latin was :afterwards sthe language of the ad, ministration. German was the first to succumb. ln four centuries it ceased to be understood by the soldiers. and in seventy years more it had become an object of ridicule. But 1t survives in more than 900 words, expressing the things of government, law and war, and thus forms no insignificant part of the French language.
