Senator Sherman, 57 Today,
 May Be Presidential Candidate

United States Senator Lawrence Y. sherman of Illinois, who is among those mentioned as a possible Repub- Iican presidential candidate, will cele- brate his fifty-seventh birthday today The Illinois So1On, at the very begin ming of his career, gained an ad- vantage over his many rivals in the race, for he was born in Ohio, the state which of late years has wrested from Virvinia the proud title of mother of presidents" MT. sherman was born on Nov. 8, 1858, in Miami county. He was only an infant when his parents removed to Illinois. and the Sucker State has been his home ever since. His earliest Illinois resi- dence was in McDonough county, but at the age of nine he removed with his family to a farm in Jasper county, where he spent his most impressiona- ble years. He attended a country school and worked as a farm boy. He was an earnest student and by helping his neighbors in their farm work and threshing he earned enough money to accumulate @ small library of law books. In 1879 he had saved enough to enter McKendree College at Leb- anon, where he studied law. Young Sherman hung out his shingle in Ma comb, where many of the people re- m membered him as a gawky youth who
 
 produce from his fathers farm. His first public office was as city attorney of Maconh. He next became county judge, and was soon numbered among the leading lights of the! Central H. linois bar In 1897 he was elected to the Illinois House of representatives,, anad two years later was made the speaker of that body. From 1904 to 1908 he was utenant-governor of Illinois, and in 1912 he defeated Shelby H. CulTom by a plurality of nearly 50,000 in the Republican pri- maries for United States Senator. Last year he was reelected for the term ending in 1921. Senator Sherman bears some resemblance to Abraham Lincoln, having the same deep set eys, sunken cheeks, and sad express sion, coupled with a dr6I wit, a keen sense of humor, deep sympathies, and a LincoIn-1ike carelessness in his per sonal appearance and garb. Senator Sherman has publicly commended President Wilson for his stand in the controversy between the United States and Germany. He has a multitude of friends who believe that the Repub1i- can ticket next year will be headed by Lawrence Yates Sherman for Pres ident Illinois has another favorite son in Congressman Mann, but it has lately been intinnated that Mann will throw his strength to the Senator.

 Frederick's marriage closely follow ed his attempt to run away From the despotism of his terrible and savage father and seek a refuge in England, where his uncle, George H., the broth CT of his mother. sat upon the throne. The Princes mother encouraged him in the project, and Frederick was as- sisted by two friends. The secret plan was discovered by the King, and the Prince and one of his compani ons were handcuffed like common male factors and carried back to Potsdam. Lieut.. Katie was executed, and Fred erick was made to witness the specta- cle, his father assuring him that he would soon share the same fate. The old tyrant was determined that his eldest son should die on the scaffo1d.

Iioht and Sound and Glass.

Why doesn't the closed window shut out light just as much as it shuts out sound? Both light and sound travel through the air, and their waves come in contact with the glass. The light, after 1t has gone through the window, seems just as strong or stronger. while the sound seems ever so much weaker. Why Is it? Many of us have wonder ed. The reason is that light is not a wave of air, while sound is. Light is wave in the ether which is in the glass as well as in the air, so that light in passing through glass still has it's natural path of ether. But when sound waves strike the window glass they must put the glass into vibration, and the glass in turn must make the air inside vibrate. All this lessens the strength of the sound waves, and they reach our ears capable of producing a less startling effect than are the light waves which reach our eyes.

BAVARIA'S KING,

King Ludwig III. of Bavaria, who will celebrate today the second anni- versary of his accession to the throne
 of that most important state of the
 German empire, has in his war re-
 deemed the tarnished fame of the
 ancient royal house of Wittensbach.
 For nearly a century the BaYarian rulers have been chiefly conspicuous
 because of their madness. His prede-
 cessors, Otto and Ludwig H., were lraving naniacs. Ludwig H., who is now approaching his seventieth birth
 day, became King of Bavaria on Nov. 1 8, 1913, when his cousin Otto, who had been confined as a madnan for a quarter of a century, was formally de- clared incapable of occupying the throne. King Ludwig. while too old to take the field, has often been called to the Kaiser's war councils. He has had experience in real warfare,2 for nearly half a century ago he fought the Russians in the Austro-Prussian war, and he still 1imps from the ef- fleets of a Prussian bullet. Not long ago King Ludwig reversed the usual order by appointing Emperor William field marshal of the Bavafian army. this caused a tremendous stir in Ger many, many asserting that the Kaiser alone has the power to appoint field
 marsha1s. The Emperor accepted the appointment, and Ludwig received the applause of his subjects for thus as serting4 his position. The Bavarian
 troops have played a big part in the war, and the Kings son., Crown Prince Rupert, is a hero among the German people He has shown himself a far abler commander than the Kaiser's son. The Kings brother. Prince Leo
 po1d, led the direct assaults against the Warsaw forts, and was given the
 honor I,of leading his Bavarians into the captured Polish capital. Many French and British officers have testi- fled that the Ravarians are the best
 fighters in the German army, and that in ability to withstand bayonet charges they are much superior to the Prussians.

BERNHARDT IN AMERICA.

The first appearance in America of Mime Sarah Bernhardts the celebrated French Jewish actress. was at Booths theatre in New Y ork B years ago to- day, Nov s, 18SO- She broke her contract at the Comedie Franchise in Paris, and was fined $20,o0O, in order to make her first tour of Great Brit ain and America. Before returning to Paris she toured North and South America and all of Europe except Germany refusing to visit the latter country because of hatred for the Teutons engendered by her experF fences during the Siege of Paris. From the first Mime. Bernhardt was a fa- vorite on this side of the Atlantic, and she was warmly, welcomed when she returned i'll 1887. Her next American visit was in 1891, and five years later she made Q farewell tour,'' which she repeated with great success in 1900. During the season of 1905-6 she again toured America, after "a brilliant engagement at the Ly- .ric theatre in New York. Owing to the warfare between rival theat- rical managers, she frequently was de- 'nied access to playhouses, and played under a huge tent. In 1910-11 Mime. Bernhardt made another farewell tour'' of the United States, and she is said to be planning another. authough one of her legs was recently ampu- tated.

The Measure of a Man.

At a meeting at4which a prominent modern statesman, who is short in sta ttre, was to speak the local chairman, endeaVoring to be witty, observed that he was somewhat disappointed about the politicians physical proportions. 1T had heard so much about this gen tIeman, he said t.that I naturally ex- peeted to meet a big man in every sense, but, as you see for yourselves, he is very smdn.' Many an orator would have been upset by such an un- fortunate beginning to the proceedings, but not so this one T am grieved to find he said, with mock seriousness, that your chairman is disappointed in my size, but this is owing to the way you have here of measuring a man. In my part of the kingdom we measure man from his chin up, but you evidently measure him, from from his chin down.

Natural Pottery.

Excellent natural pottery is manu- factured by nature in the case of a cer- tain cactus. Woodpeckers are apt to excavatc nests in the trunk and branches, and in order that it may protect itself against these incursions the plant exudes q sticky juice. which hardens, forming woody lining to the hole made by the birds. Eventually the cactus dies and withers. but the wooden bowl remains.

Shreveport Booming

Shreveport is a splendid city, and it is growing at a faster rate now than ever, said J. B. Babb, formerly of Birmlng- ham, but for several years secretary Of the Shreveport Chamber of Commerce. Mir Babb was here this week, the first time in IS months. Birmingham is Of course great and growing city" said he, but no city of the 10000 or oo,oO0 class
 s comparable to Shreveport from busi- ness point of view at the present time. Since l was last in Birmingham two ma gnificent hotels have been completed the Tutwiler and the Motion. This city is now amply provided with hotel accomo- dations and is able to take care of great conventions in the best style.
 AS Birmingham is about to go dry by the statewide prohibition act, Shreveport after being dry several years, is about tc have saloons again. It is found that in Louisiana's local option law the city and
 not the parish is the unit. The people oi Shreveport have voted wet by large ma l jority. The prohibitonists tried to stor the return of the saloon by the injunction plan, but their case is now before the su- pieme court of the state. We look for a decision favorable to the vets.

a sprained ankle and internal injuries. Mrs. Harpp now lies in critical con- dition, and even if she recovers, will probably bear disfiguring scars the rest of her life.
 The boys responsible for the acci- dent merely increased the speed of the auto in which they rode, and offered the injured woman no assistance.
 This is but one of thousands of ex- amples which might be quoted, show ing the serious results attending the practical joke. In fact, this form of degenerated fun is but an expression of cruelty and criminal disregard for the welfare and feelings of others.
 This tendency first appearing, in it's milder forms, in the very young child, is aften considered "cute' and encouraged by parents, who find lit- tie later that they are unable to cope with the trait they foolishly encour- aged.
 Real humor hurts no one--it is sym pathetic and often blends with pathos.
 But the practical joke is thing to be abhorred.
