(By J. Blanding Haman.)

The National elections, to select a
President and a Vice President for
the next term Of four years, comes
On November the seventh. Chief in
terest is naturally centered in the
Presidential race run between Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson, Democratic
nominee, and Charles Evans Hughes,
Republican nominee, but there is an
other feature to the election that
should be OF much interest to the well
wishers Of the two leading parties,
and that is the election Of Senators.
Upon the outcome Of the election in
November depends the strong voice
in che Senate. The Democrats at
present control that body, but the Re.
publicans have a chance to elect
enough men at the coming election to
take the control from the Democrats.
1t is possible for the Democrats to
elect a President and a Vice Presi-
dent and for the Republicans to regain
control Of the Senate. That is a pos
sibility, but in all likelihood the party
raining the chief executive and his
vice will control the Senate.
Thirty-two United States Senators
are to be elected next month. OF that
number seventeen are at present
Democrats and fifteen of them Repub-
licans. The Democrats at present
control the Senate by a majority of
seventeen over the Republicans. The
election last month in Maine resulted
in a Republican victory, two Senators
elected on that ticket. Counting
the result in Maine the Senate now
stands ffty-five Democrats and forty
one Republicans.
To capture the control of the Sem
ate at the elections next month the
must elect twenty-three
candidate. Should they reflect the ff-
teen Senators of their ranks whose
places are to be refilled it would be
necessary for them to capture eight
the seats nov occupied by Demo-
Gratis.
The question is, can the Republi-
cans elect twenty-three Senators?

HEMP IN PHILIPPINES.

Manila, Sept. 3O.-(Cor. Associated
Press.)-Plans looking to the raising
of the Philippine Islands to the posi-
ton Of the fibre center of the world
are being undertaken by the bureau
of agriculture. Hemp grading estab-
lished last year by law, has done Won
ders for the hemp industry and now
the bureau is turning its attention to
maguey and sisal in an effort to
threaten Mexico's supremacy in these
products.
C~heaping stripping machines are to
be provided to encourage the produc-
ton of cleaner fibre, fibre literature
is being distributed among all grow
ers, samples Of maguey and sisai bull
bills are being sent to all the fibre pro-.
ducing sections and everything is be-
ing done to promote fibre production
a large scale.

H. Hepbron, chairman of the ma
tional basketball committee of the
Amateur Athletic Union, says that the
Illinois Athletic Club has asked per-
mission to stage the championships
again. The Windy City organiza-
ton staged the championships last
year, and reported that it was the
most successful tournament held un-
der the jurisdiction of the A. A. U.
The tournament was a huge sue
cess financially and also from the COM
petitive stanpoint. The University of
Utah won the title in the last two
minutes of play Of the very last game.

half-head shorter than big Bingo."
The trappers who captured "Bingo"
in the forests of India state that he
is the largest elephant ever seer in
Southern Asia. The mammoth will be

Wednesday, Nov. /.
When on exhibition "Bingo" occu-
pies a space in the very center Of the

tains more than a thousand wild ami
mails. Since the doors to this depart
ment will open a full hour before the

Here is an excellent likeness of big
Bingo." It is from a heretofore "un-
published photograph" of the ele-
plant that is causing a great deal of
discussion among scientists. It is an
informal portrait of the giant snapped
while he was being taken from the
circus trains to the Ringling Brothers
exhibition tents.
Did big Bingo" have anything to
say about it, he would probably pro-
test against the publication of such a
picture for he has previously been
photographed only when dressed in.
one of his many gorgeous robes of
plush and silver spangles. The pach-
yderm making such obvious attempts
to keep in step with the giant is one
of the largest elephants in America,

The winter boxing season is ap-
preaching in a coy and bashful ia
shion, perhaps because the bouts in
sight are nothing much as indicted.
The chances of a bout in which a title
will be involved to any serious extent
are slim. Jess Willard, the heavy
weight champion, has made enough
out Of the circus through the summer
to rest in peace through the winter
without the wolf getting any too close
to the door of his palatial Kansas
bungalow.
There is no middleweight champion
to be fought, because the alleged title
holder, al Mccoy, of Brooklyn, is
only called champion in a humorous
sense. In the welterweight division
the champion is Ted Lewis or Jack
Britton, depending upon whether the
information is supplied by Jimmie
Johnston or Dan Morgan, the rival
managers. Both are great long-dis-
lance takers, and their debates have
netted about ffty-ffty to date. In
the near future Britton and Lewis
box for the alleged title. It's a
habit rather than a contest.

make an inroad upon the fifteen seat.

It is easy to make predictions as b
the result Of the election but it's
safe bet that no one will know The
actual results until after the voting
is over on November the seventh.
Two Senators are to be elected from
Indiana, both seats now being occu-
pied by Democrats. The other states
elect only one Senator, hence chief in
terest in the Senatorial races in CEN
tered in Indiana. Tom Taggart and
John ". Kern are the present Sena-
tors and both are candidates for re-
election and r opposed by Harry c.
New and James z. Watson.

cHUM BoB's SPORTING TALK.

New York, Oct. 23.-News from up
the Hudson is to the effect that no
coaches of college teams are laboring
under such q heavy handicap as those
in charge Of the soldiers at West
Point this season. The time there for
daily practice is SO short that one
wonders how such a high type of foot
ball is taught. The average college
team gets in about an hour and a
half, some two hours, proctice each
day. At West Point the daily prac-
tice lasts but ffty-five minutes. For
September the actual practice time
makes a total of but nineteen hours;
October, twenty hours, and Novem-
Der sixteen hours, or a total of only
fifty-fve hours for the whole season.
