 Without any desire deract from the wonderful influence at Washington possessed by the marshall which, would appear from his admissions far ranscend that of Delegate Wckersha does not pity that the oveworke federal officer should be compelled make the arduous trip Washington attend to matters which properly under the duties of Aasa deegae However, this may be good political "dope
 story being circulated the effect that Wickerham will be candidate for of the territory the Republican party wins the election and that Dan Sutherland slated take the place of Wckerham candidate for delegate From until the con- venon the business of number of men who could be better employed will be the mixing of political dope in relation to the degaehp And when their plans all maured and the election rolls around vii be found that Wckeham has rolled up his usual majority for the congressional office and the candidates there in the field the certain is his election.

which countries still adhere to the Julian calendar, more commonly known aS "Oll Style" As the Gregoran calendar discards by 100 it and the Julian calendar keep the leap year at the end of each century Saving it on each centennial year divisible drawing farther apart, and the difference which was eleven days at the time Cf the establishment of the Gregorian calendar in l582, became twelve days in 1152, when England adopted it, and Is now, since Feb 1uary. 1900, thirteen days
 In writing to Russia or Greece you shou! ] use both styles, so that no mistake can be made thus: Noy; 20; 1915,
 Nov. /, 1915 and your re- ply would come back in similar style, but with the "Old Style" date above and the "New Style" date below the line
 Owing to the fractional difference between true year and calendar year the caen- dar never is exactly right, but always a little behind or little ahead and not withstanding the double eXpedient of leap years and di8cGrGlng leap years, the calendar will along towards the end of the 56th century, be full day out of whacil, so that you may confidently expect to see some chap move that the year 5000 be leap year instead of one of the discarded ones. But worry over this need not distract your attention from the war news.

CUR QUEER CALENDAR

There are many things about our calendar which everyone knows and yet which they have never thought of, and if occasion cones, can make no use of.
 One of the simplest and most obvious facts in relation to the calendar is that as Il ere are seven days only named and 365 days in the common year, the first and the last day of the year will be the same day of the week, 365 being dlyisible by /, with one over Yet how many people on New Years day will undertake to say on what day of the week the year will end, without first referring to a calendar?
 As there are but seven different days, so it is easily seen that every one of the twelve months must begin upon some one of the seven days thus requiring that five of the months shall begin with the same day as some one or more of the other seven. In the common years of 365 days, if one be looking at the calendar for October and wsh to know about the week days Of the month of January just keep loiking at October; they are both the same, January and October arc the same February, March and November are alike; as also are April and July May June and August each com mences on its own day of the week; while September and December double up. On leap years the grouping of the months is different: May and June are the only cnes to retain their single position; April and July are together, but with January /; February and August pair off; as do Sep tember and December while October which in common years is with January, now goes 1t alone.
 Previous to 47 B. c. the year had con sisted of ten months making 304 days, and later by twelve-month year of 154 days, and this ran along until in AZ B. c. it was days in arrears, so that the great Caesar decreed that the year AZ B. c. should con sist of 445 days, which created what has since been known as the year of con- fusion"
 The Julian calendar thus established had 365 days in year. with every fourth year a bisextlle that is, double-six year, as the 9th of March was duplicated, in stead of a day being added to February, as is now done
 As the true year Is just little short of 
 465H days, this adding one day every four years in time put the calendar ahead, and in 1882 the pope, through his astronomers, determined upon dropping ten days, and the day after the 4th of October was made the 18th As this was Catholic move by Pope Gregory XIII, some of the countries not ruled by the pope refused to fall in line, and it was not until 1752 that Great Britain, by an act of parliament, made the change the day succeeding the 2d of Sep tember being the l4th.
 This, the Gregorian calendar, is now in use throughout practically the whole Chris tian world except in Russia and Greece,
