DEPOSIT PLAN IS APPROVED
BANKERS AGREE THAT FEDERAL
AID IN HARVEST is WISE.
Gather for Conference With McAdo0
in Washington to Discuss the
Placing of Funds.

Washington, Aug. 8.-Secretary Mo
Adoo's plan to deposit an additional
$50,000,000 of government funds
among the banks in the agricultural
sections has met with prompt approx.
al from the bankers in the southern.
western and far western states invit'
ed to attend the conferences at the
Treasury department to confer re-
garding the distribution of the funds,
The banks of all five far western
cities included in the plan have re.
piled they will send representatives
to Washington. Out of 10 western cit.
les all but three have sent favorable
replies and all of 81 southern cities
have been heard from.
Several of the latter, however, said
they felt no need of joining in the
conference because they felt satisfied
they would be fairly treated in the
distribution.
More than rs southern bankers
gathered today in the office of Assist
ant Secretary Williams for the FIRST
conference. Secretary McAdoo and
II. d. DdShdu, CulGl Ol TIC uIplSIOu
of public moneys, was present. The
conference with western bankers is
scheduled next, and that with the far
western bankers for Thursday of
next week.
A number of cities have sent pro-
tests against their not being included
in the proposed distribution and some
pressure, it is understood, is being
brought to bear through representa-
tives in Congress to have Secretary
McAdoo revise his list. While no def
mite announcement of the depart
ment's intention has been made, in
dications are the list will not be al
tered.
Three additional cities which are to
share in the distribution have been
made public, but 1t was explained that
they were originally in the list, though
not announced with the others. They
are Lexington, KY, Duluth; and Fort
Worth, Texas.

EMBARRASSING TO DEMOCRATS
SENATE MAJORITY CUT BY
DEATH TO ONE.
Alabama Governor Urged to Convene
Legislature and Appoint Johns
toms Successor.

Washington, Aug. 11.-Death Friday
of United States Senator Joseph F..
Johnston of Alabama, who succumbed
to pneumonia at his home here, leaves
a vacancy in the senate that is some
what embarrassing to the Democratic
majority on the verge of the compile
ton of the administration tariff re-
form program and makes necessary
an immediate Interpretation of pro-
visions of the Seventeenth constitu-
tiona1 amendment, requiring direct
election of senators.
The senator's death reducing the
working majority in the senate to five
by recent assertions from the ranks
on account of the sugar schedule, the
majority on the tariff bill is reduced
to one and leaves the party in dan
gerous position should any other emer-
gency arise. In view of this the Dem
ocrats of the senate insist that the
vacancy must be filled as soon as
possible and to this end the governor
of Alabama and the legislature of the
state will be called upon to act under
the terms of the constitutional amend
ment
Governor O'Neal of Alabama, real
izing the gravity of the situation, d.
rected r. C. Brickell, attorney general
of the state, to ask Attorney General
McReynolds for an opinion as to the
proper method to pursue in selecting
Senator Johnston's successor. Attor-
ney General McReynolds declined to
discuss the matter, but the course that
must be pursued appeared clear to ad-
ministration leaders in the senate. 1t
was the unanimous conclusion, after
an informal conference of senate Dem
ocrats, that the Alabama legislature
must be called in special session be-
fore Governor O'Neal can do any
thing. The legislature then may au-
thorize him, under the terms of the
Seventeenth amendment, to appoint a
successor ad interim and it also may
provide the machinery for a special
election to choose a new senator to
serve for the term beginning March
4, 1918.
Several candidates for the appoint
ment, if such course is decided upon
rather than an immediate election
were suggested here, among them
Congressmen Richard P. Hobson, Hen
ry D. Clayton and Oscar w. Under
wood.

Three Chicago boys-aged respec-
lively six, twelve and thirteen years of
age, determined to run away and see
the world. A policeman who found
them camping under tent made Of
single bed sheet at Hudson lake took
them to South Bend, Ind, whence
they were returned to their parents.
The policemen found the youngsters
badly scared. Brought up in the city,
they had never heard the croaking of
bull-frogs, and when 1t came to them
across the blue water of Hudson lake,
they were apprehensive that it was the
battle cry of advancing wildcats. Per
haps the next innovation proposed for
the public schools will be q phono-
graphic equipment, to teach country

RIqht-Handed Plants.

That there are right-handed plants
and left-handed plants has been re-
ported to the Cambridge England
Philosophical society by r. l.. Comp
ton. In an examination of eight va
rieties of two-rowed barley the first
leaf was found to twist to the left in
IS per cent of more than 10000 seed
lings, and an excess of left-handed
growth was found also in millet and in
oats. In corn there seemed to be no
marked tendency either way, No evil
dence of hereditary pecullarity ap-
pears to have been obtained and no
special significance of the results is
pointed out

Now the eugenic idea in marriage
to produce a perfect race is being
opposed, as all theories which gain
such prominence in the public eye
are bound to be. A scientific expert
declares that what the race needs is
brain more than Drawn, and that the
giants of intellect may be physical
weaklings. He decries the Spartans
as modern models in an age where
force is not the ruling factor in hui
man affairs. And even his opponents
will be compelled to admit that he has
method in his madness in opposing
present pet reforms.

Rulers of Greece have had on easy
time since that country threw off the
yoke of the sultan, 90 years ago. At
the outset Greece tried a president
Capodistria-who was soon assassinat-
ed. Then Ohio of Bavaria was chosen
king. but, after a stormy time, was
forced to abdicate. After that the
crown went begging for while. The
duke OF Edinburg and the earl of Der
by both refused it, and it was common
talk that Mr. Gladstone could have
had it by the lifting of an eyelid."

ers in Missouri and Kansas are try
ing to buy water for their stock from

HEART MAY STOP TEN MINUTES.


The following very interesting state,
ments, some of which are considered
striking by the leading lights of
French medical science, were made
by DR.. Alexis Marrel of the Rockefel7
Ter Institute for Medical Research,
New York, at his first official lecture
at the Paul Beaujon hospital DR..
Carrel announced that he was now
able to operate in the chest cavity with
as much ease and safety as in the ADJ
domen, says the Paris correspondent
of the New York Times. 1T is now a.
simple cut" he said, land we open
the thorax and operate upon the lungs
heart and aorta as we treat the kid
neys and the intestines. We now know
also, just how much the brain, the
spinal cord and the heart can stand
as regards the temporary anaethetlcs
required by operations. The heart
suffers very little from interrupted
circulation as long as care is taken
that 1t has enough oxygen, and it may
be stopped for five or even ten min
utes without danger; while in the
spinal marrow the circulation may be
stopped as long as 20 minutes. For
the brain, however, four minutes is
the limit Of safety, and after five 1t is
very difficult to restore normal condi-
tions." A huge field of work remained.
he said in conclusion, to be done. as
regards operations upon the human
heart, and the study of these was of
the greatest possible Importance. This
was especially true of surgery for
aneurisms and the shrinking of the
aorta or pulmonary arteries. The lee
ture was received with great en-

ton of the supremacy of the coast

The plea that English women are
driven to violence by the matrimonial
as well as political slavery in which
they live, is borne out by the COM
plant of an English woman in her
divorce suit that her husband wears
out all her stylish new shoes to show
off his exceedingly small feet. Such
oppression is naturally intelorable,
and yet it is doubtful if the cruel
British law would allow her the
asked-for relief.

Heat Liuhtnino.

Heat lightning is ascribed to distant
lightning flashes which are below the
horizon, but illuminate the higher
strata of clouds so that their bright
ness is. visible at great distances; they
produce no sound, probably in conse-
quence of the fact of their being so far
off that the rolling of thunder cannot
reach the ear of the observer.
