SHERMAN is SOON
TO MOUNT STUMP
Senator to Seek Re- election
When Duties Relax at
National Capital.
ISSUES A FORMAL NOTICE
Candidates of Two Parties Are About
to Lock Horns Ahead Of
the Primaries.

senator Lawrence Y. Sherman yes
| terday made formal announcement OF
his candidacy to succeed himself. In
a statement given out in Washington
| he also announced his intention OF
opening his campaign as soon as his
duties permitted him to leave the ma
| tional capital. He intends to take the
stump in Illinois regardless of whether
he has opposition at the primaries.
The senator's announcement pro-
duces a novel situation in Illinois poll
tics. II means that the democratic
and republican parties viii lock horns
before either has decided who its can
didates will be. This situation is
brought about by the amendment to
the primary law which forced party
nominations to be made within two
months of the general election. Pre-
vious to the adoption OF the amend
ment the nominations were made from
six to seven months before the cleo
ton.

With only two months between the
primaries and the election, candidates

Shells to Throw
White-hOt Sleet

A new type of projectile which
would scatter molten stell over the
object Of attack, and at the same
time permeate the atmosphere with a
deadly hydrocyanic acid which would
make it impossible for fire fighters
to approach, has been invented by
John Hays Hammond, Jr., according
to a statement made by the inventor
in an interview at Gloucester, Mass,
last week.
The new missile may soon appear
in the European war, as some of tine
belligerent nations are now negoti-
ating for its purchase, he said. The
United States Government is con-
Quoting experiments with it as Sandy
Hook, he added.
Mr.. Hammond explained that i.
which, five seconds after the projec-
tile is discharged, turns the steel IN
side to a white hot liquid at tenn
perateure of 5400 degrees Fahren-
hcit.
When the projectile hits the target
the inventor said, it explodes, its
wEite-hot contents setting fire co
whatever inflamma'ole material i
strikes.

One of his quick and determined
acts which has caused great discus

The fact that the action of Pope

tolic blessing upon a member OF TIL

the church since the memorable 10th
OF September, 1870, when the papacy
was deprived of temporal power, IS
regarded as significant. Some seen

But Pope Benedict XIV is a man
who fathoms things to the bottom

Pulls His Gun
and Gets AWay

Tracy Carterett, cowboy of un-

aliases, was caught in the act of
'Dutcherlng a steer i'll the mountains
about three miles north of the Hard
esty ranch on Smith creek last Satur-
day, by J. J. Hylton, Dick Bellinger

When first approached Carterett
offered no resistance, and when told
by the ranchers that he had better
go with them to Elko, lie consented.
He mounted his horse but had pro-
ceeded but short distance when he
whipped out a gun and turning his
horse in another direction sped out of
sight. None of the men were armed
and they could do nothing to prevent
his fight.
Sheriff Harris was at once notified
and he is making every effort to cap
ture Carterett. As yet however,
nothing is knowp of the direction he
took after he got out of sight of the

with disfavor for some time by the
officers. He has been known as Sid
