SOL0NS IN A DEADLOCK
Neither House of Illinois Legislature
Has Been Organized.

At Springfield, ILL.,, the forty
eighth general assembly of Illinois is
in session with both branches dead
locked.
At the time the house was called to
order it was the prevailing impress
sion that out of the deadlock would
come a combination of Republicans
and Democrats for the election of a
speaker, the choice probably to be a
Democrat.
In the senate the Republicans have
not met the conditions inspired by the
two Progressive senators, and neither
have the Democrats, and each side,
without the help of the Progressives,
lacks the necessary votes to organize.
Eight candidates jumped into the
actual battle for the speakership al
most before the sound of the gavel
used in calling the house to order had
died away. Secretary of State Doyle
opened the session of the lower
branch of the assembly at 1915
o'clock

ELECTORS MEET IN
THE VARIOUS STATES
They Cast Ballots for Wilson,
Taft and Roosevelt.

Presidential electors chosen at the
November election met at the various
state capitals and cast their votes for
president.
The electors of forty states cast
their votes for Governor Wilson, five
states were lined up for Theodore
Roosevelt and President Taft rested
content with the eight ELECTORAL votes
of Vermont and Utah. One state,
California, split it's vote between Will
son and Roosevelt
When the electors in each state
met, a messenger to carry the result
of their vote to Washington was Sc
lected. q
This result is carried by the mes
senger to the president of the United
States senate. The electoral votes
are canvassed and counted in the
presence of both houses of congress
and the result announced by the
president of the senate.
Mr. Wilson will receive the news
at Trenton. He probably will not be
surprised when he hears the result.

FLOOD IN ILLINOIS
Farmers in the LowIands in Southern
Part Are Fleeing

The river at Cairo, H., is rising, and
has reached a stage of 40.2 feet, while
the government predicts As feet or
more for Cairo
The farmers in the lowlands al
ready are fleeing with their families
and stock.
A 45-foot stage will cover thousands
of acres of land bordering the river in
this section and drive many families
from their homes.
The river has gone over the great
cutoff embankment at Louisville and
there now remains no doubt that all
flood records since the devastation of
1884 will be broken. About 1000
persons were ordered from their
homes by the police when it was seen
that the river would overflow the en-
bankment and flood about ten square
miles of territory.
The government boat Wave Rock
took up the rescue work at Shawnee
town, H., where the river has reach
ed 80 feet and is rising an inch an
hour. Lowlands are inundated and
farmers will lost many thousands of
dollars.

To Write a Letter.

The art of letter writing Is quite
simple if you will take it in all SIM
plicity. All you have to do is to con-
jure up a vision of the person to
whom you are writing, pick up your
pen, and-talk. When you can pic
ture face you like, adorned with a
pipe whose shape you know well, it
is no difficult matter to find what to
say and how to say it. A letter is a
chat and the pen can be as effective
as the tongue.

LINER on A REEF
Strikes Just OF Entrance to-
HaTbOT of Halifax.
PASSENGERS SAFELY REMOVED

There Were $50 on Board, Mostly
Russians, Germans and Austrians-
Captain and Crew Remain with
with Boat, Hoping to Get Off Reef
at Low Water.
The steamship Uranium, Captain
Eustace, bound for New York via
Halifax, struck the reef within a quar-
ter of a mile off the Chebucto Head
light and fog station at the entrance
to Halifax harbor in thick weather at
II a. m. Captain Eustace was man
euvering for a pilot at the time.
The spot where the Uranium struck
is nine miles below Halifax and the
only means Of communication with
port was the telephone in the light
keepers house. Assistance was
phoned for and the government steam
er Lady Laurier, the Bridgewater, and
other craft put off for the wreck.
$50 Passengers on Board.
There were $50 passengers on
board, nearly all of whom were Rus
slams, Germans or Austrians There
are also 500 tons of cargo for New
York and 200 for Halifax. Of the
passengers $40 are for New York and
$40 for Halifax One hundred are
cabin passengers and the remainder
steerage. The Lady Laurier took off
the women and children first and the
men were then transferred to the
Bridgewater.
The transshipment was effected in
surfEoats. All the passengers were
clear of the Uranium by p. M, and
reached Halifax safely, but the cap
tain and crew still remain on board.
Hope to Get Off Easily.
The ship hung by her bows on the
reef and the captain hoped to get off
at low water.
The Uranium struck the reef with
her bows. By the middle of the
afternoon, when the tide was half
high, her bow was six feet out of the
water. There was seven fathoms of
water amidships and seventeen at her
stern. The ship is protected by Che
bucto Head from the strong southwest
wind blowing, but should the wind
change there will be great danger Of
her going to pieces.

full acts before he was elevated to the
