Special Correspondence of The Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md, June lin a
statement addressed to the republicans
of the sixth congressional district, >
whose earnest and active support at the
coming primary election" he solicits,
Brainard H. Warner. jr.. of kensington
announces his candidacy for the repuh-
lican nomination fro Congress to succeed
Representative David J. Lewis.
Inasmuch as it was generally known
that many persons throughout the dis
trict had been importuning him to seek
the nomination. and that he had been
giving the matter serious consideration
the announcement occasioned little sur
prise.
In 1910, after having won the nomna-
ton over Gist Blair. also of this county,
after a spirited primary contest, Mi
Warner was the republican congression-
al candidate against Representative
Lewis In that campaign he made a
game fight. but was defeated Many
influential members of the party are I'M
derstood to feel that he is entitled to a
chance under more favorable conditions,
and it is believed that he will prove a
formidable candidate for the nomination
no matter who might decide to try con-
illusions with him.
Should there be any other candidate
for the nomination it will; it is thought,
be State Senator Zhlman of Allegany
county. Senator Znlman, it is thought
would stand little chance in this county
in a contest with the Kensington man,
and it is believed Mr.. Warner would
have an easy time of it in Frederick
county. Senator Zihlman. however. is
said to be very strong in the other three
counties of the district.

It's Real Origin Dates to Napoleons
ltsIian Campaign of 1859.
The Red Cross owes its real origin to
tbe great and terrible campaign OF
1859, when Napoleon made 1t his boast
that he would free Italy from the
Alps TO the Adriatic. !" At the great
battle of Magenta 10000 Austrians and
some 5000 French soldiers were left
dead and dying on the fields
A Swiss gentleman. named NJ. henri
Dunant. made a pilgrimage TO that
battlefield and was an involuntary
eyewitness of the awful carnage of the
battle of SoIferino. a battle which last
ed some sixteen hours and left some
10000 dead and wounded Henri Dn@
nant realized that the medical sei'vier
of what was probably the greatest
army in the world was absolutely IN
adequate to cope with the casualties
and be was at once compelled To take
some action TO rectify the matter
The result was that he wrote
small book for private circulation. en-
titled .Un Souvenir de Solferino." and
this. with bis private appeal. resnltet

One of the most interesting remnants
of a prehistoric lake in the United
States is that now known as Estancia
valley. which lies south Of Santa Fe
and east of Albuquerque. N. al. From
examination Of the deposits in this sec
ton biologists are of the opinion that
this lake existed at the same time as
Lake Bonneville. in Utah. and other
ancient lakes OF the arid west during
the cold. humid glacial period. The
theory of the existence of an ancient
lake in the alley is based on the pres
ence of shore features and lake sedi-
ments. Sea cliffs. terraces. beaches.
beach ridges. spits and bars are found
on all sides of the lake fat at attitudes
between 6.1O0 and 600 feet above

The following suggestions for carry
ing out the cleanup idea are given the
citizens by those interested in the move
ment:
"Clean up, pick up and rake up the
yards, front and back.
Examine every part of the house
from cellar to attic for old rubbish.
Burn all the rubbish possible. Ash
heaps, old papers, old cans have no
right on streets, alleys, vacant lots.
Send those to the official dumping
grounds.
''Do not spit on the sidewalk.
Screen the garbage can or better
still drain the garbage of all moisture
and wrap in paper awaiting disposal.
Do this and have clean can all the
time.
Get rid of every fly as fast as it
comes from its place of hiding remem-
bering that to kill one fly in the spring
before it lays its eggs is equal to killing
thousands in September. Every nui-
sance and germ breeder that is de-
stroyed will mean so much more health

make the home a pretty place to
look at and live in.
Destroy the young weeds that are
starting on your property, taking the
dandelions out of the lawn, they spoil
its beauty.
Eight the caterpillars.
Remove the dead shrubs, trees OF
limbs and burn or have them carted
away.
'Let every merchant clean up those

The bottom of the Mississippi river,
or rather portions of it near Memphis,
Tenn, is being supplied with a carpet
in the shape of gigantic mats woven of
willow trees, which are being con-
structed in sections on the surface of
the river and then sunk into place.
The river for several years has been
cutting a new channel that threatens
to leave Memphis high and dry mile
away. The turbulent river already has
to its credit, or discredit, score of
towns deserted in this manner, with
consequences serious enough. In the
case of Memphis, however, these con-
sequences wou be disasterous almos t
beyond description; her costly harbor
facilities would be utterly ruined and
the city left with huge mudbank be-
tween it, fine levee and the stream.
The threatened danger was first noted
by government engineers about year
ago, and preparations Immediately
started to avert it. While the Unsuitable
river has for several years been eating
railroads, houses and farms in the
vicinity of Memphis, sucking them into
its muddy nav, and carving them
down to the Gulf of Mexico, it seemed
that the hungry stream had at last met
something that would check its appe-
tite when sheer wall of solid rock ap-
peared at Hopefeld Point, opposite
Memphis. But the rock was soon being
undermined.
The willow mats now being placed in
the river at that point are expected to
put stop to the erosion. Some If these
mats are mile long and 200 feet wide.
as fast as section is completed it is
weighted with rocks to sink it into
place and then pinned to the bottom
with piles. The Mississippi is the only
river in the world that enjoys the dis
tinction of having its bottom carpeted.

1t has been an axiom for ages that
when the heart stopped the man was
dead. A wound in that organ was con-
sidered absolutely mortal. The latest
and perhaps the most startling of all
the achievements of surgical science is
to stop the circulation of the blood and
sew up a cut in the heart. This marvel
has been accomplished by a surgeon in
Paris, who sutured the heart of boy
shot IN that vital organ. The boy lived
and went back to work. Surgeons at
the Rockefeller Institute in New York
have performed similar experiments
with animals and expect to operate in
the same way on human beings. There
appears to be NJ limit to the possibility
of the healing art. Rutland News.
