Is Wayne county in need of a tUber-
culosis hospital? Could the 235 acre
farm known as Smithfeld, and offered
to the county by David and India Es-
teb as the site for such an institution,
be put to practical use in this county,
or would it have to stand idle because
of lack of patients?

institutions ranging in size from 25
to 64 beds. Actual records on file al

compiled by the public health depart
ment of the bureau, and the Red Cross
show at least SO cases brought TO the
attention of the bureau in the past

Nv MARK SULLIVAN

NEW YORK, Aug. IA good many
folks in New York are allowing the
zeal of their distaste for William
Randolph Hearst to mislead their judg-
ment about his immediate political
future. Hearst is saying in the pa
pers about every other day that he
doesn't want the Democratic nomina-
ton for the New York governorship,
and that his choice is Mayor John F.
Hylan. Nevertheless, a considerable
bulk of the politicians and others who
don't like Hearst insist that he wants
it for himself, and are taking strenu.
Gus pains TO prevent his achieving that
supposed ambition.
OF course it is no new story, and
nothing novel in political strategy, for
a man in such a situation as Hearst's
to dissimulate in the role of Miles
Standish and say. why don't you
take it yourself. John?" But in the
present case Hearst is telling the sim
pie truth, truth so obvious and SO
necessarily inherent IN the circum-
stances that the enemies of Hearst
would realize its obviousness if they
were not led astray by the intensity
of their predjuice. 1t is one of the
weaknesses of the opponents of Hearst
that they hate him too hard. A colder
blooded and more calmly calculating
opposition would be more effective.
Hearst doesn't want the governor
ship nomination; probably couldn't gel
| it if he wanted it and pretty certainly
would be defeated in the election if he
should get the nomination
! 1t Is true that on occasions, several
| weeks or months ago Hearst has dal
| lied with the idea of getting the gov
ernorship nomination for himself: Bu1

| personality, that with all his success

held at 3 O'Clock tomorrow after

the only enc who witnessed the ex-

boat which was used in the work
Of blasting in the channel opposite
Hampton.
Lilliman testified Aurdevant
took the explosive from the boz
| preparatory to doing some blasting:
The string which holds the cap OF
the stick was loose, said Illiman'
and Sturtevant tied 1t. The ex-
plosion occurred when the young
man was replacing the stick in the
box, LiIliman was swung complete
" around and was dazed. When ne
recovered from the shock he saw
Sturdevant sink to the floor OF the
boat. Lilliman wrapped the in.

blew FIVE blasts Of the boat whistle

the steamer, Ruth alongside Of the
idrilI boat. Sturdevsnt was rowed
to shore and rushed to WATERFOWL

| That the rest Of the dynamite on
the boat did not explode is regarded
as a miracle. The explosion blew
out an end OF the box containing

! a box of dynamite would probably
have destroyed the boat and caus-
ed the death of every man on it
No one seems to know wha'
