Clans Gather Tonight

The gathering of the clans takes place tonight, in other words the democrats hold their caucuses, and from all appearances, there will be some pretty lively sessions that may make or break the democratic party for some time.
 Contests in every ward seems certain as the dispute for the nom- ination for judge of probate be- tween the present judge, D. Elm melt Shea, and his opponent, Bur gess Leo Brophy, draw to cli- max. It now looks as though the first and second wards will be the important ones, with the decision in the first ward probably telling the tale.
 Judge Shea is known to be strong in the third ward and reports have it Brophy followers do not really expect to win in this ward. They do expect a win in the second ward.

Right now this looks like an uphill fight for the present incumbent is quite popular there and has many friends in this ward. His followers have by no means been inactive.

ROAD SINKS FROM SIGHT

St Wendell, Wis. - (UP)-A sec tion of road between Centerville and Meeme running through q gumboo bog two miles west of here, which has settled about two feet yearly, suddenly sank from sight recently beneath IA feet of water and suldge. The weight of many tons of gravel dumped on yearly to maintain its level heaved a grove of elm and ash trees nearby up several feet when the road disappeared.
 London and Leningrad, Russia, have just been connected by tele- phone.

Paxrools Much Less

The two weeks shutdown of local rubber factories during July was believed the main cause of the large drop in payrolls for that month in Naugatuck. Payrolls last July decreased to $406,S40 from S73S.6O3 in June and $43S,360 in July, 1883. This is a drop of S332,263 from June. Many em- ployes had virtually three weeks layoff without pay.
 These figures are from the monthly business report of the Chamber of Commerce, released yesterday. Savings deposits also declined, being $8,672,95s in July, $6,778,7O9 in June and $6,511,990 in July, $199. Postal receipts for July were $5,41S, for June, $5.010 and for July, 1888, $5,476. There were 2,7S7 active telephones in the borough in July, $2,79S in June and 2,650 in July, 1883.
 There was decrease in gas con- sumption in July from that of June and from that of July, 1893. Elec- tricity consumption was less in July than in June but larger than in July, of last year.

Cause of Rain and Snow

All the rain and snow that falls Is
present in the atmosphere because the
heat Of the sun, plus the lower heat
Of the earth, causes water to evaporate
and turn from Its liquid form into
water vapor Anything which lowers
the temperature cuts down this rate OF
evaporation. Thus in winter the mols-
ture content Of the air is generally less
than In the summer as measured By
the humidity.

Evening star., 1934-11-18

by the United States Marines in the hard fought
battles of the World War.
The Marine Corps is not new branch Of
the military service. Indeed, We find it men
toned early as ITS, and particularly in May
of that year, when the Original Eight of the
first contingent on record marched from Hart
ford to Ticonderoga, and after the official birth
of the corps November 10, ITS, they are shown
supporting Washington in the crossing of the
Delaware and engaging in the Battle of Prince
ton, a few days later.
THE first Marines to come to the District Of
] Columbia arrived IN Georgetown on Friday,
July 18, 1900, and remained here a short while,
when, on July 81, they came to Washington and
pitched their tents a beautiful hill overlook
the National University, which never ma
terialized, and where was later placed the Naval
Observatory and subsequently the Naval Hos
pital was removed here. Lieut.. Col William
Ward Burrows, the commandant Of the corps
at that time, arrived in Georgetown on July IS,
and two weeks later proceeded with the men
to the temporary site selected.
Washington is nice place to camp out in
the Summer, but not so good in Winter or cold
weather, and so, as early as July g. 1900, we
find Col. Burrows urging the Secretary of the
Navy to commence the construction Of bar
racks. Evidently the Secretary did his best
to speed the matter along, and finally secured
an appropriation through Congress, approved
March g. 1901, for the sum of $4,000, and
then it was understood that to do the work
