Harpers Weekly Drops Wilson,

Harpers weekly Drops Whson-A
queer story is being told in Washing
ton and New York about a break be-
tween Governor Wilson of New Jer-
sey, and his discoverer, friend and
backer, Col. George Harvey. the edi-
tor of Harper's Weekly.
The disappearance Of the name Of
Woodrow Wilson from the masthead
Of Harper's Weekly as its candidate
for president and the sudden substi-
tuition of it's ardent advocacy for
dense silence in two successive issues
would under any state OF the case ex-
cite curiosity and remark. But the
story goes deeper than this. In point
Of fact there are two stories; one that
the interests behind Col. George Har-
vey ordered the discontinuance Of the
Wilson propaganda and the other that
there was an open, personal break be-
tween Governor Wilson and Colonel
Harvey.
All sorts Of rumors are hying
about. One has II that Col. Henry
Watterson was a party to the breach
between the two eminent fasteners,
| or at least that he knows a great deal
about II and has been seriously at
fected by 1t. The other has 1t that
Wilson found Harveys support a
handicap with the Democratic Radi-
Gals and rudely demanded OF Harvey
that he stop 1t.
Harvey and his friends are silent
Watterson is making speeches in sup
port of the arbitration treaties and
cannot be reached. An explosion,
however is expected at the Jackson
day banquet to be given by the ma
tional Democratic committee the
evening of the Sth Of January.

FIRST FIRE ALARM
Of 1912, Midnight, Was q
False One.

Just as Father Time was ushering in
Master Nineteen Hundred and Twelve,
some mischevious individual turned in
an alarm of fire at the alarm box at
South Twelfth and B streets. Hose
Companies, Nos. 3 and and the hook
and ladder truck responded, but after
futile inquiries as to where the fire
was, and who turned in the alarm
the Gremen returned t their respective
hose houses.
Numerous "slumber" parties were
broken up when the fire bells rang
and within a short time a large mum.
Der of persons were attracted to the
scene of the supposed fire. Chief Mil
Ter is looking for the person who is
responsible for the false alarm, or SO
called "practical-joke."
The Quaker City" Of Indiana cele.
brated the birth of the new year quite
as extensively as other cities of its
size in the state, or adjacent states OF
course, the hotels were not thrown op.
en- after II o'clock and neither were
the restaurants crowded after the
birth Of the new year as was the case
in larger cities. The lid in Richmond
was clamped tight.
