4 According to some of the Charles
ton correspondents, certain OF the
senatorial campaign managers are
looking for Goyernor-elect Hatfield to
. come to the capital and settle tho
race for the Uaited States senator
ship by a free and judicious distri-
button of promises Of appointment
to the positions he will have to fill
in the course Of his administration.
The probabilities are that the gov
ernor-elect will do nothing of the
kind. The contest over the senator
ship is not his fight. ="
Governor-elect Hatfield can not
but have the keenest interest in the
program OF legislation to be con-
sldered at charleston this winter.
His abilltyeto give the state the pro-
gressive administration promised in

Ut is far more reasonable, therefore,
to expect the coming governor to

getting the desired legislation

The desperate onslaught of the

1912 are now being held up Aor lack
of confirmation by the Senate, and
the prospects are that these will not

hungry Democratic hordes back of

deliberately holding up the business
Of the Senate in order to prevent the
confirmation of few hundred Re

hard to conceive more disgusting

Athletics In the Navy.


In his annual report to the secre-
tary, of the aayy, the surgeon-general
lof the navy has collected the staI
tistics of the subsequent health 81 Of
$50 non-athletic midshipmen who
we're in the Naval Academy during
de twenty years from 1892 to1Sl1
Inclusive. These statistics were
gathered for the purpose OF compar-
ison with "a corresponding set Sc
cured last year with regard to the
subsequent health of 1922 men who
had represented the Naval Academy
in the crew, on the football team
and in other forms Of strenuous ath-
letic contest for the same period
Any comparison between the
two groups in this matter should of
course result in favor of the ath-
letes, for they are not only picked
men, but as the surgeon-general
says, twice selected picked men.
They are the men who, it would rea-
sonably be supposed, would be best
able to resist the real effects of
entertaining and overstraining and
who should, other conditions being
equal /, possess a comparatively
greater degree of health and and
longevity But this has, not proved
to be the case. ut, has been found
that from those Diseases to !. which
athletics have possible or probable
refaticnt there has been but one, death
among non-athletes as compared
with six for theS athletic group OF
the men still in the service whose
records show abnormal physical. con
ditions, tS7 are non-athletes as
against 1sS athletes.
sProhably the most striking, ar
raingment of the i'll effects of siren
uous competitive athletics is to be
found ii. the degenerative disease of
the heart, arteries and kidneys which
in recent years in spite OF all our
advance in sanitation have greatly
increased, though the contagious
diseases have beaa reduced in re-
markable way. The surgeon-gener-
al says:
''The following conditions or DIS
abilities show an excess amounting
to 80 per cent or more among the
athletes: arteriosclerosis. valyular
disease of the heart, cardiac irreg-
ularity, cardiac dilaticn, cardiac
hypertrophy, gastric disturbances,
albuminuria, general poor health,
obesity and tuberculosis, and various
traumatic LESSONS as we'll. 1T seems
reasonable to suppose that the dis
abilities among the athletic class
are largely due to spectacular ath-
leticism and would not have been
acquired had the overstraining and
entertaining not been INDUCED ia
The Journal of the American
Medical Association commenting cn
the surgeon-generars report, thinks
that with these facts before them it
viii be rather difficult for university
faculties to justify the tolerance and
encouragement which they now give
to intercollegiate contests and the
training for them. They hurt
scholarship which has always been
admitted, but there seems no room
for doubt that they also hurt health.
Their alleged hygienic value was
the chief excuse for their being.

Bradley Theater
JUNGLE TOMS HIN

at ncle Toms Cabin,p that beauti- ful and tender play of social life and of particular interest to women and children, will be presented by Leon Washburn's Stetson's "Unele Tom $ Cabinn Company, at the Bradley Theatre on Monday, Jan. Is.
 Written by woman, Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, "Uncle Toms Cabin is one of the few dramas that appeals principally to the fair sex, and has for its leading characters people whose prototypes can be found to-day in many fashionable drawing rooms. In no play of recent years have the pas sions been so strongly drawn upon for dramatic material as in " Uncle Tom $ Cabin.n Love and sympathy predo- minate throughout, while seltishness and hatred are important adlunctS to the happy continuation of story that is hrimful of interest.
 "Uncle Tom," the central figure in the play, is a man who in turn shows
 weakness and strength. He is vic
 tim of circumstances, and is fairly happy and contented while being the slave of "Sinclairen who is a man of the world, of character and self re- spect. But, there comes into his ex- istence man whose entire character is despicable, and through his efforts 10 force his ignorance and brutality, con | fiicIing struggles ensue, and the battle is bitterly fought until the triumph of l right and honor.
 Apart from "Uncle Tom,n there are | & number of characters drawn with equal tinesse and color. They are
 made to play important roles in the life of "U ncle Tom, and all are figures
 of prominence in the development of | the story.

The girls strange disappearance a few weeks ago was sensation in Bristol and vicinity. She was subsequently found. and the ar rival of the State policeman with her and her alleged abductors starts a new chapter in the romantic story. The girl said that the two men induced her to leave by tales that her husband did not care for her and was eager to be rid of her The accused on the con tfary, say that the girl went with them voluntarily and knew for what purpose she was going The element of white slavery is said not to enter the case at all The girl said she would be willing to live with her husband again if he would receive her. The men were arraigned before Justice Ryder of Plainville and held in 5000 bail each for formal hearing here.

rHEoLp HOMESTEAD.

There could be no more welcome an- nouncement for the amusement-loving public than the appearance here of "fhe Old Homestead" at The Bradley Theatre, Tuesday, Jan. 2lst. The dear old pastoral play itself is by this time so familiar to everyone that any at tempt to describe it would be superoro- gation. The mere mention of the names of Joshua Whitcomb, Cy. Prime, eSeth Perkins, Aunt Matilda Riekety Ann, is sufficient to bring to mind all of these deligbtful rural characters, and at the same time arise in the background the pictures of the homestead in Swanxey, Grace Church on Broadway in New York City, and the aristocratic mansion of Henry Hopkins, the metropolitan merchant and millionaire.
 The company this season is practi- eally the same ss last, and the produc- ton Is said to be perfect in every detail. As usual Mir. Frank srhompson is per sonally managing this greatest of all Ameriean successes.
