TIME MAKING MYSTERY.
Clocks With No Apparent Mech
anism Puzzle Observers.

Two mysterious clocks. with apparently
no works. have been placed in the front
windows of, and keep time in. downtown
business establishments. One is in u
drug store The other is in piano and
music store.
hundreds of Washingtonians are busy
figuring out the mystery of their move
ments The clocks are hung next to
the glass of the windows. Apparently
invisible forces move their hands as the
minutes pass.
Every now and then one of the attaches
Of the stores turns the hands of the
clocks away from the regular hours they
are noting. The hands then gradually
settle. like needle to a powerful mag
net, the correct time. The clocks are
guaranteed to keep perfect time for one
year.
The clocks have dials thirty-six inches
in diameter The figures and divisions
Of the faces are placed directly on the
glass, and In the center the two hands
are fastened by means of an ordinary
suction rubber. The hands are made to
move easily. and if whirled around will
invariably come back to the exact minute
The clocks have proved so attractive
that probably three-fourths of those who
pass the store windows stop to watch
them.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
RICHMOND. Va. May 30.-Perhaps the
most surprised people in the state for
long time is the sporting fraternity in
and around the city of Norfolk. For
years and years that section has enjoyed
immunity from any sort of official inter-
ference and when complaints have been
mad ethey have been followed by deci-
sions which have left the offenders free
for all time. The people of that section
have kept up a hammering which has re-
suited in a complete reversal of things
that obtained in the good old days.
At the very outset the people tired of
the fusion rule for that county and the
initial step was to GUST the member of the
legislature. What is known as the
straightout faction landed both men.
They were not supporters of Judge Law
less. who presided over the circuit court,
and when the time came to name a new
Judge they did not hesitate for a mo-
ment. but proceeded to GUST Judge Law
less.
Then came the raiding of the race-track
gamblers at the jamestown Jockey Club
by orders of Gov. Stuart. Detective w.
c. Baldwin was at the head of the force,
and with twenty men he caught the
bookmakers red-handed There had been
arrests in the past. but no convictions.
With changed conditions there were con-
victions and then appeals. The appellate
court sustained the trial court. Then it
dawned on the gamblers that there was a
change in conditions. They agreed to en-
ter a plea of guilty in every case. to pay
fine of 500 and to serve six months in
Jail.
Gov. Stuart then came to the front and
made an arrangement whereby he would
issue conditional pardons following the
payment of the fines, on condition that
they leave the state and not again violate
the laws. They agreed and the twelve
men arrested have paid to the Golfers of
the state 5000, in addition to the costs
in each case. totaling something like
s., 600.
In passing it is safe to remark that rae
ing has ended at the jamestown Jockey
Club for the present and that there will
be no more gambling in that section of
such character as that which made that
section notorious. Gov. Stuart insists that
he is not opposed to horse racing, but that
gambling is bad thing. There will be
no further appeals in the cases.

To Be Empty Honor.

II IS admitted on all sides that the re-
publican nomination will be an empty
honor. and there are those within the
party who are urging that jackson keep
out and allow the nomination to go TO
Darlington as a sop to the former pro-
gressives who are now back in the repub-
lican party. They point to the fact that
the republican senatorial nomination will
have some chance of success in 1916 and
they say that Jackson can afford to wait
two years In the interest of party har-
mony. 1t is said that the republican
leaders look for a wide split between two
democratic factions in the state when
Lee comes up for reelection. and they
claim that this coming schism within the
democratic party will result in the cleo
ton of a republican United States sena-
tor.
The republicans are sanguine that they
can elect the mayor of Baltimore next
year. and there is a large number Of
