Some Things That
 Happened And Some
 That Look ''Eclipsy''
Newspapermen and Naturalists May Have Looked at That Supposed Sun Eclipse With Very Different Eyes

Boston, Mass, Sept 1.-(UP)- Scientists studied the sun when the man in the moon came over the mountain to put on his widely ad- fertised "blackout" act, but some newspapermen and naturalists grasped the opportunity to study the monkeys in the zoo and the folks downtown, according to wide- ly scattered reports received here to-day.
 And on the football field at Fryeburg, Maine, where many sci- entists gathered to watch the moon do its stuff in the twilight of the gods that direct the planets in their course, the act was accom- panied by music-tingling tunes strummed on taunt banjo strings, and reedy melodies pumped out of an old accordion.
 "The world is waiting for the sunrise," the banjo plunked.
 Wild beasts and birds at the Benson animal farm, Hudson, N. H.. were bored" a squad of special observers reported. Trainer Franz Wonska put his troup of five lions through a public rehearsal. They AoEHcu d PJ anu, anu Aoh d HUI dle race.
 The white zebu and the red wa ter bucsk first huddled in their outdoor cages, then went into their houses. Betsy the elephant stood chained to stake, calmly pow dering. her cheeks with dust.
 New York reported that the moon literally made monkeys out of the baboons" in Bronx Zoo. Gen. tral park there reported that a mother yak observed the eclipse by giving birth to youngster with out benefit of twilight sleep. The baby yak was named "Eclipsie".
 The owls everywhere hooted. Other birds tucked their heads un- der wings for quiet snooze, in- terrupted soon thereafter by eccen- tric Old Sol answering a curtain call.
 Crickets "chirped" hours too early, according to some reports, while the park seals everywhere parked for fish usually fed them in the evening, but stopped bark ing when the moons shadow was darkest, evidently believing the day was done and further squalling was useless.
 Some observers noted strange &C., tions among all the animals. The dragons in New York's Chinatown, however. were unaffected.
 Meanwhile, down on New York 8 Times Square where the Marx Brothers were doing their stuff, little boys proomted a logged film racket. They borrowed" pieces from bystanders and promptly

 An autogyro flew overhead trail- ing theater advertising. A boot black looked at the sun through a bottle of shoe polish. Down on New York's Bowery there were re- ports that some viewed the eclipse thrugoh a glass of smoke.
 The New York Edison Electric company reported that the moment of total eclipse the electric power demand jumped to ten times nor nal. And 1t increased 300 per cent within 15 minutes. After, officials said, the eclipse-viewers stepped back into the house and found it seemed very dark. Montreal reported that a horse lay down and went to sleep in front of an apartment building there when the shadow was blackest.
 Fryeburg reported that a hustling storekeeper offered complete pie lures of the eclipse" about five minutes after the momnt of total ity. They were taken a week ago and "retouched".
 And Metropolitan newspapers de- voted pages of type to reviewing the story of the moons big "black- out; other papers told the story in columns.

ANOTHER OF THE OLD SENATORS
 HAS GONE DOWN
Shortridge Smashed By Young Anti=Dry Repub= lican-McAd0o Will Op= pose Him" -"Ma" Fer- guson Is Victor

San Francisco Sept 1.-UP)- The nomination of Tallant Tubbs, enthusiastic young republican anti prohibitionist, to oppose William Gibbs McAdoo, democrat, guaran- teed colorful campaign for the of- flee of Senator Samuel M. Short ridge.
 Tubbs. 35-year old state senator, based his successful campaign on his opposition to the 18th amend ment, and defeated Senator Short ridge, who has served 12 years in the senate.
 McAdoos overwhelming victory in the democratic race Tuesday was even more surprising than the retirement of the conservative Sen- ator Shortridge. The wartime sec- retary of the treasury obtained more votes than his five opponents together.
 Tabulated returns today from 0,721 precincts out of the states 10.351 game:
 Republican senatorial race: Shuler. 125,112; Congressman Joe Grail. 144,O72; Leo V. Youngworth, 44,G85.
 Democratic senatorial race: Me- Adoo, 200,117; Wardel, 97,9O2; Ab- bolt, 10,036; Hale, 6.094; Me Carthy, 14.808; Shuler, 56 .568.
 Although democratic registration in California increased this year, 1t was estimated today that republi- cans cast approximately 295,oOo more votes in the primary than the Bourbons. The z. o. D. vote was expected to total 100000.
 Wet and dry sentiment appeared almost equally divided. Tubbs. de- feated Senator Shortridge and Con- gressman Joe Grail, both drys. Mc- Adoo, dry who accepted his party's repeal plank, won an equally con- vincing victory.
 A third figure in~the senatorial campaign will be the Rev Robert P. (Fighting Bob) Shuler. Method ist preacher of Los Angeles. He ran on the republican, democratic and prohibition party tickets, and won the prohibition party nomina- ton. Shuler received 125,112 votes on the republican ticket and 56,568 on the democratic ticket.

Of course, I cannot speak

stand how anyone who is a
moderate would not want

wet or an absolute dry.
2. You ask me if it is
possible for a Democrat to
be elected this year.
Let me answer that I do
not think it is possible for
a Republican to be elected
this year.
In the first place, no Re-
publican will be nominated.
When Mr.. Hoover came
back to America, having
spent the better part of
his life abroad, he did not
know whether he was a
Democrat or a Republican.
He cast his lot with the
Democrats, and became a
Wilson internationalist.
He has never changed his
policies, but he has changed
his party name.
When the Democrats went
out of power, and it was
apparent that only a Repub-
ican could be elected to
office, Mr.. Hoover called
himself a Republican and
was elected to office.
But Mr.. Hoover is still a
Wilson internationalist, and
always will be.
He has tried to fasten the
Wilson policies of interna-
tionalism upon the Repub-
lican party, which had
pledged itself to oppose
these policies.
Mr.. Hoover will probably
be renominated by the Re-
publican party. That party
does not seem to think that
it is worth while to nomi-
nate a genuine Republican.
l do not believe that Mr..
Hoover will be reelected;
but if he is, his election will
not be a victory for Repub-
lican principles, but merely
a victory for the .interna-
tional bankers, and for the
foreign entanglements which
Washington enjoined us to
avoid, and which the Re-
publican party in three ma
tional platforms has pledged
itself to oppose.

There is a nursery department
