Well Worth Domesticating.

No further experiments in zebra breed
ing are to be tried, as the department
says it. has finished what 1t set out to
determine-that is. that the Greavy zebra
is we'll worth demonstrating in this coun-
try. George Rommel, chief Of the divi-
sion of animal husbandry. says that the
zebra has the desirable points for a mule
sire that the ordinary jack lacks. The
greatest point is his finish He is a
handsome stylish animal, whereas the
jack is rough and strong, but lacks finish
entirely. Therefore in breeding mules
the dam has to be depended on to fur
nish all the finish there is in the
family.
What will become of Dams colt has
not been determined He will be kept
at the farm till he is old enough to work
After that he probably will be sold. But
the fact has been demonstrated to the
satisfaction OF all concerned that the
Greavy zebra is well worth importing and
demonstrating, while there are a few Of
him left in Africa.

Differ Over Interpretation.

The main difference Of opinion in the
committee arose over the Interpretation
of that section of the Alabama code which
authorizes the governor to call elections
to fill the vacancies in certain specified
state offices land such other offices as
may be provided for by law.
Some held that the language OF this
section was broad enough to cover the
office OF senator: others disputed the posi-
ton earnestly.
1t was suggested that an attemp: be
made to enter into a pair agreement with
the republicans in the case OF the death
of another senator during the session.
Republican senators approached on the
subject. however, did not give the idea
their approval

zEBRA-HORSE COLT IS
STURDY But NOT BIG.
Experiments at Government
Farm Prove African Animal
Worth Demonstrating.

Dan. the Greavy zebra presented to
President Roosevelt by Emperor Meme
Xix, has finished his course of residence
at the Beltsville farm of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, and has gone back
to the Zoo, where he has nothing to do
but eat and loaf and enjoy life.
One Of the most important points. &C
cording to the Department Of Agricul-
ture authorities. is that Dan has left
behind him at the experiment farm a
hybrid by one Of the departments
Morgan mares. This is the first horse
colt that has been procured from the
zebra There have been half a dozen
"zebroids," a cross between the Greavy
zebra and the burros at the experiment
farm, but the foal by the Morgan mare
is the first whose mother has been a
genuine horse.
Will Never Be Very Large.
The little colt is not a new arrival. He
is now fourteen months old. and has
reached a size to justify some prediction
as to how he will develop. He will never
be very large, for his mother is the
smallest Of all the Morgans the depart
ment has handled. She was one of a
pair of twins, the other one of which
died. She lived and developed, but she
was always very small. Her zebra colt
will be little bigger than she. but will
not be large by any means.
He is as promising looking mule colt
as could be found. dark bay with dark
brown stripes. Except for the stripes,
he would not be strikingly different from
any other stylish mule.
The burro-zebroids have grown suffi-
cientlv IN he broken to harness. They
are small, but fast and hardy. The Nor
gan-zebroid will be bigger than they, but
probably will be more like the orthodox
mule.

Hold O'Neal Lacks Power.

That Gov. O'Neal Of ALBANIA is without
power to appoint senator. from that
state to fill the vacancy in the Senate
caused by the death of Senator Johnston,
without first being authorized to do SO by
the state legislature, was the consensus
of opinion Of many democratic and re-
publican senators at a meeting yesterday
in the Office of the Judiciary committee
Senator Overman, acting chairman of
the committee, therefore, sent last night
to Gov. O'Neal the following telegram.
in response to request from him for
advice:
by the new amendment governor is
charged with duty Of issuing writs of
election to fill the vacancy, but has no
power to fill by appointment until legisla-
ture authorizes him to do SO.
by subsection five, section four hun
dred and thirty mine, your code, it is pro-
in cases other than those elsewhere speci-
fled in the section which are or may be
provided by law. The following sections
direct that all special elections shall be
held on such date as the governor may
direct This is the general opinion of the
democratic lawyers of the Senate-that
Is. that the governor can call special
election, and that the candidate elected
would be entitled to his seat. However.
there is much division of opinion In the
judiciary committee some holding to the
opinion that the governor cannot call an
election until the legislature Is called to-
gether and takes action in this matter. .

BELIEVE CLAYTON
MAY Be SENATOR
Friends Think He Will Be
Chosen if Gov. 0'Neaf Names
Successor to Johnston.
WORDING OF AMENDMENT
CAUSES SPLIT IN OPINION
Alabama Executive Is Advised by
Judiciary Committee That He
Lacks Appointive Power.

Friends III Congress Of Representative
Clayton Of -Nabama. chairman Of the
Judiciary committee OF the House. believe
that If Gov. O'Neal makes an appoint
ment to fill the vacancy in the Senate
caused by the death Of Senator Johnston
he will appoint Mr.. Clayton.
The statement was made without reser-
walton today by warm friend of Repre-
sentative Clayton that the governor prob
ably would make the appointment any
how and let contending elements fight it
out in the Senate
The recent amendment to the Consti-
tuition of the United States providing
for the popular election of senators is
being studied and analysed on account
of this sudden vacancy in the representa-
ton of Alabama in the Senate. and there
is no doubt unique situation is at hand.
yet Representative Clayton's friends are
confident that Gov. O'Neal will favor the
chairman of the judiciary committee.

Word "Term" Is q Sucker.

"The whole spirit of this amendment is
to take the election of senators from the
state legislatures and place it in the
hands of the people. Now, if the Ala
bama legislature empowers the governor
to make an appointment. will that ap-
pointment stand until a regular election
or special election?"
The sticker in the amendment, however,
is the last sentence around which so
much controversy arises as to the word
term The people of Alabama desir-
ing an appointment claim that nothing
can affect the term of Senator Johnston,
because it was established by election
that his term expires March 4, 1915. and
that his death merely ends his personal
service, leaving an actual term still in
existence 1t is manner of saying, THE
king can never die" Now. il the. gov
ernor holds that the appointment of
Representative Clayton will in no wise
affect tae term Of the late Senator
Johnston, then the Alabama friends of
Representative Clayton claim they are
right and he will be appointed.

Wording of Amendment.

In the amendment which now becomes
of SO great interest are these words:
when vacancies happen in the rep
resentation of any state in the Senate,
the executive authority of such state
shall issue writs of election to fill such
vacancies: Provided. that the legisla-
ture of any state may empower the
executive thereof to make temporary
appointment until the people fill the
vacancies by election as the legisla-
ture may direct.
This amendment shall not be so con-
strued as to affect the election or term
of any senator chosen before it be-
comes valid as part of the Constitu
tion."
In Alabama there is already a law ar
ranging to empower the governor to make
temporary appointment. There is. how
ever some question whether that law
holds in this case. AS to the proviso
that the legislature of a state may en-
power the governor to make temporary
appointment until an election shall be
had, an Alabama man said today:

Calumet, Mich, Sept. 1.-THE sit
uation in the strike of 1000 copper
miners in this section is tense today,
with both sides waiting to see what
the outcome of today's conference at,
Houghton will be.
So far James MacNaughton, gen.
eral manager of the. Calumet & Heclal
and number of other mines, has
been immovably against recognitiong
of the Western Federation. His posi-.
ton to all who suggested arbitration
has been that he would meet CONT
mittee of his own miners, but firstl
wanted to know how the committees
was to be appointed; and that any
miners going back to work would
have to sign an agreement not tot
join the Federation.
This last will not be agreed to by.
the miners, although it is not ,certaina
that they will insist on absolute rec,
ignition of the union, provided thej
right to organize is not prohibited
and union members are not discrim-;
mated against.
