Capital Gossip
BY HENRY AVERILL
Daily Dispatch Bureau
in the Sir Walter ifctel

Raleigh, Sept. 13.-President
Frank Graham of the University of
North Carolina has got around to
denying that he intends to be 4
candidate for the governorship Of
North Carolina, a denial which, of
course, was made by him only be-
cause he was specifically asked by
newspaper men what his intentions
are.
This correspondent was the first
to put the Graham name into CUB
ernatorial consideration, but in the
putting it was then and there
stated as a purported effort by
Ralph Mcdonald to get Graham to
run: "The whole scheme will go
to pot because President Graham
very likely hasn't any more idea
of running for governor than he
has of accepting the presidency, of
the Liberty League"
By the way, aren't there sup
posed to be some half dozen or
cnly slightly fewer unannounced
candidates for tie governor: hin?
Where have they been lately? Like
the officers, they've been "down in
deep dugouts" when it comes to
expressing any opinion on any con-
troversial subject; fearing that they
like the privates OF musical fame,
might get ''up to their necks, etc."
August highway casualties are
not likely to show much, if any,
reduction from August of 1888, it
appears from incomplete records in
the highway safety division.
Through the twelfth there had been
definitely reported and established
"a deaths as compared with "a last
year; but there were still others
sure to come in before the books
are closed.

Famous Whirlnool

The maelstrom is a famous, but
overrated whirlpool off the north
west coast of Norway between Mos
kenas and Mosken, two of the Lofo-
den islands. 1t is more properly a
strong current than whirlpool. This
current flows alternately six hours
from north to south and six hours
from south to north, and especially
at the changes produces angry
whirls, which may sometimes be
heard for several miles. The strait
is navigable under ordinary weather
conditions, either at low or high
tide. During northwest wind the
passage becomes exceedingly dan
gerous, and few craft attempt to
cross it then, since the currents are
then strong enough to inundate a
small vessel or toss a larger one
against the rocks. The depth of
the water, once supposed to be too
great for soundings, is only little
more than a hundred feet.
