BISHOP RESTARICK HAS
SEED POT RESEMBLING
MAMMOTH WATER DENlZEN

Do fish grow on trees? Not quite,
but nearly. @-,.:. ..
I'VE can't exhibit deceased aquatic
specimens in our windows" remarked
II. p Wood this morning as Bishop
H. B. Restarick walked into the Office
of the Promotion committee carrying
under his arm what appeared to be an
unusually large fish of a beautiful,
sea-green color.
However, Mr.. Woods fears were set
at rest. What the bishop carried
wasn't a fish. 1t was an enormous
seed pod of a royal palm, bearing a
remarkable resemblance to a species
of denizen of the deep often seen at
the fish market. The body of the pod
was moulded along the same lines.
as that of a fish, while at the end,
where the pod had been torn from the
palm, was a perfectly-formed tail of
brownish fiber "...
After all, the specimen was deemed
by Mr. Wood as well worth placing on
exhibition in the Promotion window.

CATHCART HOME;
SAYS REPUBLICAN
VICTORY CERTAIN

Judging from the political outlook
of the middle west, the country will go
Overwhelmingly Republican at the
coming election.
This is the prediction made by John
w. Cathcart, city and county attorney,
who returned this morning by the
steamer Wilhelmina from a three
months vacation trip. He spent most
of the time at St Paul with his rela-
tives.
Mr.. Cathcart returns greatly improV-
ed in health.
He confirmed his cable message
which was received by A. NJ. Brown,
deputy city and county attorney a
short time ago. In this message he
announced his intention to run fer re-
election. -.:~
81 have not been back long enough"
said Mr.. Cathcart this morning, ito
give any opinion on the political out
look here. But in the middle west all
the signs are that the next elections
will mark the biggest Republican vic
tory in history.
The middle west has had enough OF
the Democrats and their administra-
ton. Consequently they are getting
together to defeat every Democratic
candidate in the field"
Mr.. Cathcart says he enjoyed his
trip and the res it gave him imniensly,
and returns ready to take up the
duties of the office with renewed
strength. ."

What is really happening in the South,
as the government and State records
show. is that half the population-the
white half-is getting rather more, and
decidedly stronger, liquor than hereto
fore, while a large proportion of the
other half Is being irreparably ruined by
drugs. But this condition is not wholly
confirmed to the negro States. Okla
