Clay County, according to reports, has an illustration of practical politics that is wortli studying. The civic league, a branch of the Anti-Saloon League lias taken a leading part in the Clay County political fight. The candidate for clerk on the Democratic ticket had always been a strong temperance man, but following its usual course th«‘ league would be satisfied with nothing less than a public declaration, and further dragged the candidate from his bed at midnight to secure his signature to a remonstrance. Moth the declaration and the signature were cheerfully given. At the polls yesterday the league voted solidly with Hie saloon element for the Republican candidate and defeated the Democratic candidate by several hundred. Such is practical politics.

RECEPTIDN

Tendered Rev. and Mrs. .1. F. O’llaver at Methodist Parsonage Last Night.

A reception was tendered Rev. J. F. O’Haver last evening in the M. E. Church annex, which was a complete surprise, his friends succeeding In holding the secret and in keeping the pastor and his wife away until t company of two hundred had assent bled in the annex. When a few of the members found out that the 3rd of November was the anniversary of the birth of their pastor they immediately began to Plan a surprise in his honor. Mr. and Nirs. E. E. Farmer entertained them with a 6 o'clock dinner and they itad hardly completed the repast ere telephone conveyed the message that the Rev. O’Haver was wanted Im mediately at the church. With the remark that it was probably some one who wanted to get married, they repaired to the church. The church was darkened but when the worthy pastor and his wife stepped in the lights were switched on revealing the company enjoying to the full the looks of astonishment on the countenances of the victims. A musical program w as the principal feature of amusement. During the social hour T. J. Brooks, with a few well chosen remarks, presented the Rev. O’Haver with a box as a small testimonial of the regards of the members of the church. The box contained thirty-seven dollars, a dollar for each milestone he had traversed. The company was in an unusually happy mood and the evening was enjoyed equally as well by them as Hie happy victims of the pleasant surprise. While the Rev. O’Haver and wife have been here but a short time, they have endeared themselves to the congregation, who in this manner made possible the general wish that he may enjoy many more happy anniversaries.—Bedford Daily Mail.

The Timepiece In the Observatory cl Columbia University. In .he observatory of Columbia uni versity is one of the most accurate clocks iu the world. It has run for several months with a mean error ol only fifteen-thousandths of a second and a maximum error of tbirty-tbou saudths of a second per day. That means that it does not vary more than half u second a month, or six seconds

a year.

Compare this with the first pocket timepiece, the “animated egg of Nu remherg." which required winding twice a day and varied an hour and a half In the same time! Compare it with some of the highest priced watches manufactured today, which often vary more than ton seconds a week, and you will have some idea of the refinements in the science of mens uring time. Yet even this accuracy is surpassed by some famous timepieces, if the trade magazines are to be be lieved. There have been accounts in them of docks or watches that have varied less than a second in periods as long as ten years. The dock at the 1 niversity of Columbia is an astronomical clock. It is surrounded by a glass case in which a partial vacuum is maintained, and in order that tin* case may not be opened or disturbed the winding is done auto math-ally by electricity The clock Is set up in » room especially constructed to keep it free from jar or vibration Tlie temperature and barometric conditions are maintained practically constant. and every possible precaution is taken to minimize the errors of the running mate.

More than L’.ikhi years ago the isle of Santorln was split in half by an earth quake, with the result that what was onee the era ter of a volcano Is now a crescent shaped harber. Two glisten ing white t iwns of Thera and St. Nicholas are perched on the summit of the steep clitYs. win dark and dismal h * ! ii ::.ir In that ef Hie top of Vesuvius. Standing out against the sky are large numbers of windmills, with many sails, arranged in a perfect circle. These are evidently employed for crushing the olives, which, along with the terraced t ines, are the staple preduet of the island. The Santorln wine is of excellent quality and is highly appreciated In Hie Levant. Between the main island on the east and the smaller. Theresia, on the west, are tlie three small Kaumene islands, all of which have lonte Into existence since the original earthquake, while the largest of the three was "b ,rii from the sea” less than 200 years ago, showing that the center of the old volcano lias still a certain amount of activity. The water in the harbor into which the sulphurous streams from this volcanic Island rnln has a peculiar property which completely cleans off growths of every kind from the bottom of any ship.

“Rial Sporty” Woodsmen. Tlie chief recreation of the woods men of tlie Puget sound country is to go to town on Saturday nights. As a valley dweller explained: “They’ve got money, and they just blow it in. That there is the logger style of It. There's no places of ninusement in the town. They can go to the library and sit down or go to a hotel and sit down, but that don’t suit ’em. No, they either get drunk or go to church. Some take in both. I've seen ’em at church pretty well loaded. 'Bout ’leven or twelve o’clock they start for their camp. Mostly they hire a rig and go eight or ten fellers to a team. Oh, they’re sporty! There’s nothing too good for the loggers and. take 'em as a whole, they’re the best class of men r ever run up against.”—Clifton Johnson in Outing Magazine. Etruscan Vases. The famous Etruscan vases were wrongly named, for, though made in Etruria, they were the productions of Greek genius. They are elegant In form and enriched with bands of beautiful foliage ami other ornaments, fig tiros and similar subjects of a highly artistic character. One class has black figures and ornaments on a red ground —tlie natural color of the clay; another has the figures of the natural' color and the ground painted black. Tlie former class belong to a dale about (100 B. o the latter date about a century later and extend over a period of some 300 or 380 years.—Now York American. Where the Cost Comes In. “Do you find the cost of living anv higher in New York than It was In the little old town?" No. Living doesn't cost so much more, but a fellow has to pay a Idg prl< o to keep from getting lonesome.” —Chicago Record-Herald. Labor Lost.

On October 16 the Danville Friday Caller had the following to say:

•>

Thomas R. Marshall. •>

•> Thomas R. Marshall, of Co- •> 'I* lurnhia City, a candidate for •>

<• Governor of the great State of

•> Indiana on one of the numerous •> •!• minor tickets that are in the ❖ •> field, will speak at Plainfield ❖ ❖ today (Friday) at 1 p. m., upon ♦> •!• “the bsues” of the rampaign. ❖ ❖ A magnificent audience is ex- ❖ •> poc!od to greet Mr. Marshall. ❖ ❖ <• x*x*x~x*x*x“x~:”x~x~x**x~x":*

We heard at the time Mr. Marshall ]

spoke in Plainfield that the audience : was magnificent and all that was ex- j pected. it was a great day in Plain- I field. But that is not the best part of this story. The way things have gone are altogether different from what the Friday Caller expected and ,

: ^ ZEI 5 & CO.’S

The Caller expected the same old

gang to he in, but the people at the polls knew their business and they were not afraid to attend to It. The “minor party” mentioned by the Caller seems to be a great big party-

now.

The Caller certainly got a lemon and in the favorite talk of the Republican candidates, before election, we use their same expression and ask the Friday Caller to “please explain.” 1

A MEDFORD STORY. Legend of the Phantom Ship and It* Mad Pirate Captain. Tlie town of Medford, Mass., lias a legend of u phantom ship beside which i la* Flying Dutchman is only a peaceful merchantman. The Medford story inns that a ship laden with rum and g"!d and silver bars put out from that place in the days when the Spanish main was infested with pirates, it was beaded for a West Indian port, but got into the doldrums and was so long becalmed that water and provisions gave out, and all hands perished ol thirst and starvation. When the wind came up again the ship sailed away with her ghastly crew, was seen by a buccaneer, chased and over hauled. Tin* pirate captain made fast to bis prize without firing a single shot, and attributing the vessel’s nonreslstnuce' to fear or lack of arms, be was the hrst man to leap on board. But the r' , pe with which the captured ship hail been carelessly lashed to his own parted under the strain of the seaway «ud lie found himself rapidly borne away from ids comrades on what he soon discovered to be a floating coffin A stiff breeze filled the sails of the derelict, and before bis own vessel could overtake it night descended on the ocean and the pursuing ship lost sight of it altogether. Left alone In pilch darkness on the grewsome craft the Pirate went mud with terror and’ seizing the wheel, raced away before the wind and, according to the legend was condemned to range the sens fore 'et ihus in command of his horrible prize.

Five Dollar Soap. “It is tlie proper thing to have your soup made to order,” said a masseur “-Ml the great actresses, all the great mllllonairea' wives and many quite ordinary people have their soap made to order, paying for it anything from 50 cents to $5 a eake. “ I ids green soap costs $5 a cake. It Is made to order in Paris for a beautiful actress. Note her crest and monogram In gold on each green cake. “ riu* soap is made not of ordinary soap fat, but of spermaceti, the clear fluid which fills the hollow skull of the cachalot or sperm whale. It is perfumed with ess bouquet, one of Hie costliest perfumes going. It Is, you see, pretty, its odor Is delightful, and it yields a perfect lather. Even at that it doesn’t seem to me worth 10 cents a wash, but so, the actress tells me, its cost works out.”—New Orleans TlmesDemocrat.
