although this is the first time he has
been a candidate for any public office
His voice is big and round and
musical his enunciation almost per
feet, and every word carries on He
is exceptional as a public speaker
tine in style, but not too fine; simple
in the sense that his appeal is direct
and straightforward, and in words
that reach home Like other great
orators he speaks the language of the
people, not from the clouds, as might
be expected of a college president, but
from firm and familiar grounds. II
he is impressive on platform, he is
not less so in the informal moments
when he meets people along the street
or in front OF halls where he is about
to speak He shakes hands after the
fashion of man VINO really likes plain
folks. and is happy among them. Peo

A CLOSE up" VIEW

This question came in over the state
with the Endorsement OF " A. Gan
field for United States senator at the
Milwaukee conference on June l, at
tended BY 1000 delegates. men and
women, representing every county in
Wisconsin
Folks wondered what sort of a
chance a college president could have
against Fighting Bob, and now they
are finding a quick. convincing ans
wer in the Garfield campaign, for the
college president has turned out TO
be neither mild nor academic, but a
candidate with a stiff punch.
Garfield is striking both in personal
appearance and style of oratory. Even
as Lincoln's appearance excited com
ment and interest. Ganfeld's appear
ance has become a subject of wide
interest as he goes on in his state
wide tour. which will take him into
all the larger cities AID among the
folks out in the corn fields.
Almost over night he has risen to
first place in the public interest. As
Garfield rises to address an audience.
ones interest becomes conferred in
his peculiar complexion which was
left unusually dark following a nearly
fatal seige Of Illness when he was a
young man back on tho farm Of his
father. In one less powerful in per.
sonal appeal, this might prove a dis.
advantage. but not so with Garfield.

Rivers Peculiar Movement.

The Colyille, the largest Alaskan
river emptying into the Arctic ocean.
for much Of its course lies higher titan
one side Of its own valley, and is grad
ually sliding down hill, writes Robert
F. Wilson. in st Nicholas. The river
flows north parallel to an eastern range
of hills and actually part way up the
slope of the hills, so that if the
streams western bank were cut, the
water would abandon the present bed
and flow down into the bottom Of the
valley. The western side of the river
is deep, where the current is eating in
to the bank year after year, but the
eastern side shadows out into broad,
stony beach. which shows by its great
width how far the river has already
Travelled sideways. The explanation of
the Colyille's eccentric conduct is that
after ii formed its bed and valley, as
normally behaved river does, there was
later contortion Of the earth's crust,
lifting the stream bodily part way up
the side of the slope. Ever since then
the river has been trying to get down
10 its I'D level again.

A CREEPY SNAKE STORY

A creepy story comes to us of a
rattlesnake that was found in the
home of Ray Lynch, who lives in the
old stone house on the Watkins farm
in the town of Brigham.
Mrs. Lynch was going up stairs to
put one of her children to bed and
stepped on a rattlesnake on one of
the steps. She was in her stocking
feet. The snake struck at her, strik-
ing her skirt, and sounded its rattles.
Mrs Lynch called for the hired man
and told him to throw her something
to kill the snake with and to bring a
light He threw a broom to her and
and when the light came the snake
was lying on the broom. 1t then went
upstairs and into a bedroomt and,
when an attempt was made to kill it,
crawled under the bed and then into
a hole between the stones of the wall.
Later Mr.. Lynch, when filling up
the cracks and holes in the wall,
moved box and a RATHER slipped out
of it and into another hole. Whether
it was the same reptile or not is I'M
known.-Dodgevil Chronicle.
