ELECTRICITY TO KILL FLIES
A Milwaukee Man Suggests Running
Electric Current Through the
Screens on the Houses.

MILWAUKEE, VISA Milwau-
kee man has submitted to the health
a scheme to rid the city
absolutely of flies by electrocuting
them. He says he has applied for
patent for his method, which is to
electrocute them coming and going
on the screens of the windows and
doors, transoms and any other screen
covered place where flies may alight
1--WE do not know what he has, p"
said F. W. Luening of the health de-
partment, but he talks very intelli-
gently about his plan and has prom
ised to give us demonstration. He
claims that he can electrify the
screens so that the current will be
sufficient to kill flies, but not strong
enough to work injury to anything
else.
1--WE have tried experiments in this
department with electricity on rats
and mice and found that it did not
work, for we had to use enough cur
rent to almost burn them up. If we
did not we only succeeded in shock
ing them and they would be as lively
as ever in a couple of hours.

FARE POORLY IN THE ALLOT-
MENT OF POLITICAL PLUMS
IN GEORGIA.

WASHINGTON.-T nomination
of Mrs. Ham for postmistress at
Gainesville by the president, a course
said to have been fully endorsed by
Postmaster General Burleson, is re-
garded by several members of the
Georgia delegation as a certain indi-
cation that those who were active
for Representative Underwood in the
preconyention campaign in Georgia
are to fare poorly in the allotment of
political plums.
Representative Bell regards it as
the clearest sort of case. Mr.. Bell
pointed out today that while A. S.
Hardy, his candidate for the place,
had actively pushed the candidacy OF
Underwood no man had worked hard
er for Wilson and Marshall than did
Mr.. Hardy and that through his eff
forts largely the Ninth district was
swung out of the republican column.
He spoke also of the letter Mr.. Hardy
had received from W. j. Harris. the
chairman of the state democratic ex-
ecutive committee, praising him for
the work he had done.
Il asked Mr.. Burleson a few days
ago what charges he had against Mr.
Hardy" Mr.. Bell said. Mr.. Burle-
son pointed to a little squib in one of
l. Kx-h
something like this: The Wilson
people expect to carry Hall county
because two of Mr.. Wilson's children
were born in Gainesville. PshaW!
Is Gainesville his mother-in-law?' .
Mr. Bell had an appointment with
the president this morning at 1890
o'clock to discuss the nomination af-
ter futile efforts had been made here
tofore to have Mr.. Bell change his
recommendation to some one else.
Mr.. Bells appointment with Mr..
Wilson was made before the nomina-
ton was sent to the senate by the
president. This morning Mr.. Bel
declaring that the nomination had
been sent from the white house in
advertently and expressing regret
that this was true. No statement
was made, however, indicating tha
the name would be withdrawn wher
the senate meets.
Mr.. Bell did not keep mis- appoint
ment with the president. He say
he will have nothing more to do will
the matter and will not seek to hav'
the nomination held up in the sen
ate. If the president should for an.
reason withdraw Mrs. Hams nam
Mr. Bell will again recommend Mr.
Hardy.

The inventor would have all the

a screen of this character it would
not require a great current to kill

it would get almost all of them, for
it is undoubtedly fact that flies are

QUINCY, Ill.-The sex of ALBERT
D. J. Cashier, civil war veteran and
an inmate of the soldiers home here,
was today revealed by Col. J. o. An
derson, superintendent of the home,
to be feminine.
The woman, whose real name prob
ably never will be known, served
three years in the union army. She
was mustered out of the service in
1865 and few years later was plac-
ed on the government pension roll,
She entered the soldiers home two
years ago and at that time her sex
was known only to Col. Anderson,
but he promised not to reveal her Sc
cret. His promise has been fulfilled,
inasmuch as the woman two weeks
ago was adjudged insane and in a
few days will be committed to the
state hospital.
The revelation of the identity of
her sex was made two years ago in
Livingston county, Illinois, where
she was employed by ex-senator I. NJ.
List as chauffeur. It is said by the
ex-senator that one day his machine
would not run and the chauffeur
crawled under the car While she
was tampering with the mechanism
the engine started and the wheels of
the car passed over her, breaking her
right leg Physicians discovered her
secret.

NEARLY DROWNED IN THE HARBOR

Jeremiah Shea of Baltic, 40 years old, was a lodger at police headquar- ters on Friday night and secured his release at 5 o'clock Saturday morning on the plea that he was to go to work in a mill at Baltic. About twenty hours later he was again at the po- lice station. this time having been rescued from the river. more than half drowned. Due to his experience in the icy water he was in such a state of exhaustion and collapse that he was sent to the Backus hospital. He has recovered enough to be presented in the police court this morning on the charge of intoxication.
 Shortly after midnight Saturday, Po- liceman Henry Fenton on Market street heard shouts that seemed to come from someone in the water of the harbor. The cries were hard to To- cate and at first seemed to come from the direction of Chappelrs docks, but when he had searched the water front as far as the rear of the elevator build ing, the cries seemed to come from the freight dock. He went back there without locating anyone and decided that the man must be across the river.

NO NEW SYMBOL.
TertuIlian Tells of Sign of the Cross in the Second century-Rev. T. A. Grumbly Breaches at St. Patrick's Church,

The Trinity Sunday preacher at St. Patrick's church was Rev. Thomas A. Grumbly, whose theme was the sign Of the cross, the reminder of our re- denption and of; the mystery of the Trinity. As early as the second cen tury Tertullian tells of the practice of the zealous Christians in making use of this sign. After the victory of Constantine the cross began to ap- pear above the workshops of the liv- ing and the tombs of the dead and upon the churches. The cross is the symbol in which all Christians, like St. Paul, should glory. Making the sign of the cross is a profession of faith, the confession of Christ as leader. Tn the name of the Father, and of the Son. and of the Holy Ghost" Is an expression of a belief in the oneness of God. an invocation of aid which must ever be efficactous against evil and against temptation.
 The offertory selection was Abts Ave Maria, pleasingly sung by Miss Helen Murphy.
