TIM SLATE WILL GO THR0UEHT0-MORROW Charles V. Clark, the Boss's Candidate, Will Be Elected County Chairman. LIGHT PRIMARY VOTE

The officers of the Marion county Democracy that will be elected by the county committee at the Masonic Hall to-morrow evenlnx will be: Charles B. Clark, ohairRtn; Andrew H. Wahl, councilman from the Fifteenth ward, vice chairman; Charles C. Pettljohn. secretary; Elliott R. Hooten. treasurer. Clark will be elected by acclamation and Wahl and Hooten will probably follow thj same route to office. Alien Majors has been mentioned along with Pettijohn for the secretaryship, but there no doubt of the latter's election. Ye sterday's primaries bnaight'out a very small vote, but of that the Taggart-Fan-ning-Clark slate got practically all. There were but four contests. In three of these the men who were slated by the machine for precinct committtf men were seated, while in the fourth no election was declared. The contest in which no election was declared was In the twelfth precinct of the Twelfth ward. John Griffin was slated for committeeman, while the representative of the city administration was Daniel O'Neil. On the tally sheets of the precinct sixtyeight votes were counted, but seventy-one votes reposed In the ballot box. Of these seventy-one Grirrin received thirty-nine and O'Neil thirty-two. and the latter contested. In a discussion preliminary to the settlement of the question by the credentials commictec, in Chairman Spencer's office in the Thorpe block last evening. Griffin and a partisan of his opponent almost came to blows, but wer- separated by fi lends before any damage was done. In the ninth precinct of the Twelfth ward John Carr was seated over Jacob Hyob. while in the ninth precinct of the Thirteenth ward Scott Smith was seated over Mr. Morrison. A contest in the first precinct of the Fourteenth ward was decided in.iavor of ; rge Connor, the man on the Taggart slate, although his opponent. Thomas Hannen, an anti-machinist, was stated to have i eived about ten more votes than Connor. The contest was made on the ground that Hannen had been "helped to it" by various and sundry Republican friends, and this seemed to have enough weight with the credentials committee to seat Connor. The sixth precinct of the Fourteenth ward gave a fair sample of the light vote. Twenty-two votes were cast out of a possible two hundred. The administration Democrats were mostly too tired or too chilly about the pedal extremities to bother with voting. Some of them who tried couldn't find their voting places, and were still hunt ing when the game was called off.

HE CARRIES THE MAILS

H THE AGE Of 71 Xelson Woodmansie, a WellKnown Character, Looks After Star Route on Rhode Island. WORKS SIX DAYS A WEEK GREENE. R. L, Feb. 4. Along the roa-1 from Greene, in the mid-western part cf Coventry and the last station in Rhode Island on the old New England Railroad to Escoheag, which is in the extreme southwestern part of West Greenwich, no man is better known that Nelson Woodmansie. The road is one of the main traveled ways of the we3t section of the State. It is nine miles long and it winds up the hill at Greene, around and over Sand Hill, a steep and for Rhode Island a high elevation. wherc the road is one mass of loose sand and the horse has to stop for breath several times past the grounds where the Adventists hold their noted camp meetings, part I li.i.bii.a IIairtu.' rviwt the O id Plain Meeting House and so on to Escoheag, a quaint oiu place wnere uuewaiei vmm w o.. n away from the top of Escoheag. The old man carries the mail along this road every .lav except Sunday, winter and summer. It is one of the star routes, the subcontract being hold by Daniel Tillinghast, of Greeae. father of L. A. and Masou W. Tillinghast. Nelson Woodmansie has worked for him for the last seventeen years, and is now seventy-one years old. Despite his age he is uncommonly stroug. RCtlTfl and gritty. He rarely fails to get through with the mail, and the occasions on which he Is not able to get very far on the road are few indeed. The regulations oi the service require an effort and a start, no matter what the weather, but the old man does more than this he gets there. He has been doing this so many years that he has become known to every person living along the road and to many travelers who have had occasion to go over it. He starts from Greene soon after 10 in the morning, after the arrival ot the mail, and he g-ts back there at half past 3 in the afternoon. He is pretty regular about it. too, ami the residents along the road have come to look for him at a certain time each dav in fair weather in either direction. He carries passengers in nis nsnfawa w riage. and he can drive over any place having a surface. The springs of the wagon are strong, and he can stand anything that will not break the wagon. Storms seem to nave nine eneei un hn old man. He will grumble about starting out in them, but start he always does. Last winter he failed to get through only once. That was on a day when an ordinury man would have crumbled at the idea of going out of doors at all, let alone starting for a drive of eighteen miles tnrougn a country in which the wind bites and has a better sweep than in almost any other part of the State. For that section is tne nignesi in Rhode island, with the exception of the Burrillville and North Smithfield region. The town is one in wnicn mere are iew young men. On most or tne rarms oniy the old men are left, for the young people, as soon as they become old enough to leave the place, start for the city or for some section where there is more of a population and a better chance. There are only .thlree l lnnaoneo nouses aiong one ui wie rou.ua from Greene to r-sconeag. SHIPBUILDING TRUST FIGIIJ IS ADJUSTED Agreement Reached by Which the Litigation Is to End and the Company Be Financed. NEW YORK. Feb. 4.

MARVELOUS COSES MADE OF TUBERCULOSIS CASES Patients in Last Stages of the Disease Restored to Health by Paris Physician.

DOCTORS ASTOUNDED PARIS. Feb. 4. Dr. Joseph Mr.rmorek has cured tuberculosis definite, established, unquestionable tuberculosis by the subcutaneous injection of a new serum invented and u?cd by him at his clinic in Paris to over a hundred patients during the past year. Someone ha? said that every man is a crank tiM his idea succeeds. On that notion, or the common idea that everything good sooner or later becomes the food for argument, this man and his treatment have been subjected to much unconsidered and inconsiderate comment, not pronouncedly either fair or Impartial. Austrian Jew by birth. Dr. Marmorek came to Paris a few years since to study with Pasteur, who was so attracted by him as to give pointed encouragement to his eager interest in serum work. He has now distinguished himself, and is best known for a sound and successful treatment of puerperal fever. A slight, tall, fair-haired man, modest in speech, deprecating in manner, he holds himself to the pursuit of his life with a wistful, persistent enthusiasm which is the real genius of sincerity. Of his recent researches towards a cure for tuberculosis, he writes as follows: "The true toxin has hitherto escaped research, as no way had been discovered to cultivate the bacillus on a feeding ground, approaching as neaily as possible the natural conditions. The present method I adopt for getting the toxin in the test tubes is In this way: Young bacilli sire bred 'primitives' (as I designated them in a communication to the International Congress of Medicine of 1900) on a nourishing ground consisting of leueotoxic calf's serum (white corpuscles) and liver broth, mixed with glycerine. After a certain number of changes which the bacillus undergoes on this new feeding-ground one is highly astonished to find no tuberculine, but, on the contrary, another toxic substance, which kills small animals, and to which tuberculous animals are no less sensitive than healthy ones. One can, at this point, make rabbits and guinea-pigs immune against subsequent infection. Horses are also immunised with this filtered, bacilli-free product containing the toxins, and from the blood of the animals is obtained the new anti-toxic serum. Experiments were first made on tuberculous animals; then on human subjects. The bacilli which have been treated for a protracted time with this leucotoxic-heated serum are readily mastered and reabsorbed without forming the usual abscesses, without causing a general infection; while forming an inoculatc-y instrument against subsequent tuberculous infection." MR. ZANGWILL S FRIEND. However, after some unsuccessful experiments Dr. Marmorek. in the spring of last year, began to make active and successful use of the serum, steadily continuing treatment on now over a hundred consumptives, and so far with a fine absence of failure. Mr. Israel Zangwill, the author, brought the treatment before the notice of a dying man in Florence who was suffering from intestinal tuberculosis, aggravated by six fistulas, the largest over thirteen inches in length. Count Hochberg, the patient in question, is the brother of the better known Prince Henry of Pless, and had become so weak from this trouble that in April last he was incapable of standing without the greatest effort and pain, was too weak either to stretch or to hold up a book while reading, and was visited regularlv by most violent cold sweats, shivering fits and recurring fevers. So, after recourse to the most prominent German specialists and surgeons, including the celebrated Dr. Geheimrath von Mikulitsch-Radetzky, of Breslau who had operated on him for three of the worst fistulas, he determined to try the new Parisian cure, and from Florence to Paris he was carried, helpless, to his last hope. Dr. Marmorek. consideri no the -'Q on cn grave and so far advanced, determined to administer the serum daily, although his usual treatment involves a break after every three days' injections, and beginning i mem m once, visited the weak and sinking man at his own hotel What followed reads more like a fairy tale than sober fact. On the third day the yreu; uirwmi nis aoatea; arter the tenth injection Count Hoch berg rose and walkedafter the thirteenth inlertion th v-u-ir, -w Ing a slight inflammatory, appearance it was decided that the treatment had been sufficient; and two more injections closed the emergence from the elusive but tenacious bacillus into hopeful health Then those who had treated the count, who had Kivt-ii up nope, wno nad foretold early par atysis and death. who had reluctantly passed him from the orthodox practitioner to the alleged quack, came wondering to Paris. There, at an informal seance in the patient's rcom. the great I)r MiknHth with Prof. Hartman and Dr. Soulier of Paris, made an exhaustive examination ' entered upon with doubt aud skepticism but closed with quite cordial but half humble congratulations to the wonderful, man who ma injected mysterious life under the skin oi me Hiomacn or a dying man.

JAPAN TRANSFORMED AS IF it MAGICIAN'S ISO Leaped Chasm of Ten Centuries in Her Civilization in Brief Period of Thirty-Five Years.

WORK OF THE EMPEROR LONDON, Feb. 4 The following from the London Mail s special correspondent at Tokio. Japan, is a vivid description of how the present Emperor transformed his coun try as if by magic in thirty-rive years: Life must seem like a dream to Mutsuhito. the Emperor-magician of Japan, the man of the hour in the far East to-day, as he looks back to the time when he came to power. As long as Japan has a place in the world his name must live on the roll of th world's great men. It was not given to many of the great world-figures vho made history and founded empires to sow the seed and watch the harvest gathered in. England toiled painfully through the cen turies, through war and revolution, now suffering long oppression, now beating down its Kings, out of trie long night of feudalism into the freedom which she has spread throughout the earth. But to one man in the world it has been given to find a nation bound and to set it free, to ascend a feudal throne and to base it firm up on the people's will. Mutsuhito has brought Japan to Europe. It is almost as if he had. by a stroke of a magic wand, transformed the England of the Conqueror Into the England of to-day. Half a thousand years seem to have slipped by forgotten in the generation which Mutsuhito has reigned. Time and history seem both to be playing tricks when we thii.k of the rise of Japan. The things which should be centuries old are only thirty years, and almost on the same page we find Prime Ministers and feudal lords. There are men, and men not very old, who remember when for an Englishman to set foot in Japan was a peril ous thing, when Japan was to Europe as a closed book which none had dared to open. Then, across the vast distance came rumblings of a storm, the dim message of a mighty change, and Europe knew that Mutsuhito. a young man in an old ecuntry, the youngest, perhaps, of all the rulers in the world, had broken down the power or centuries, swept aside all but a thousand years of custom and laid the foundations of a new Japan. LED BY YOUTH EM TENS. It was the work, as it were, of a night. In a short war, the Shogun, the dynasty which had ruled Japan for seven hundred years was overthrown, and the dynasty which through all the centuries had ruled Japan in name now ruled in fact. That was in 186S, when Mutsuhito was sixteen, and it seems an incredible thing outside a novt l that a youth In his teeps should lead a kingdom out of Egypt into the Promised Land. Yet all that is modern and powerful In Japan has come into being since the Emperor was sixteen, apd in his short life is bound up all the strange change which has made Japan the hope of the East to-day. Lven now there are times when Japan looks rather like a picture in a fairv book than a country on the map. At the Emper or s garden party grey veterans scrape up the soil where his chair has rested and enrry it away, and if the Emperor has taken a piece of cake and left half of it. no guest need think twice who would carry off the crumbs. When a prince is born. he who presents the babe to Mutsuhito must cover his mouth lest he breath by chance upon an Emperor of Japan, and Alice in all her dream of Wonderland saw nothing more strange than she might have really seen if she had been awake in the Land of the Rising Sun. Rut there were wonderful things for the world to see in Japan when we were young. Such things as men had rr.rely looked upon were tnose to gase upon when Japan drew up its blinds and threw open its doors to all the continents. Great nobles gave up their lands and castles to the States. The feudal lords, heads of great families, which had ruled Japan a thousand years, the sword-bearers who had fought her bat tles and preserved her fame in war. laid their wealth and dignities and traditions, their very homes and incomes, on the altar of the New Japan. Two hundred landed lords gave up their estates to th Kmneror who was building up a kingdom which could have no room for other lords than heNo such laying down of rank and power had been seen since the nobles sacrificed their privileges in the National Assembly in rianee, tinnij yars oerore. ll was an event, this surrender of its glories bv a proud nobility, which somebody has said throws into tne shade the achievements of Peter the Great, the reforms of Joseph II and even the French revolution itself." it was, at least, a sight which neither god nor men had seen more than once or twice since the gentlewomen of Florence flung their rings and bracelets on Savonarola s uonnre oi vanities. THE LOVE OF THE OLD. But Savonarola himself could hardly have changed the whole life of a nation; we know how his kingdom fell. And there were crises and storms in Japan, with revolts against the new regime and risings of the old, and once, when the streets of Japan ran with Japan's best blood, the tragic close of thirty thousand lives marked forever this parting of the ways between East and West. Nor was it easy for the Emperor to deprive of their last privilege all the lords who had magnanimously laid down the rest. let so small a thing as the wearing of a sword came necessarily to be forbidden and slowly th'j old tradition and picturosquem s of life in Japan passed away before the nation 1 eyes. Japan was loth to let it pass. We like to remember that story of the wife of a Japanese ambassador who'was attended by a leading physician in Vienna. She had a bed such as any great lady in ienna might sleep upon; but in it the physician found a board upon which she really lay. and hidden in the soft pillows lay the old-f-hioned head-rest common in the old Japan. How hard it is to let the habits of a lifetime go! But all Japan, indeed, lived two live in those strange times. Its young men came to Europe, saw our civilization, studied our politics, and learned in our schools. Marquis to, with Count Inouye, came to London in their teens to learn the way in which a nation should go. and landed at the docks so hungry and lonely and helpless that they threw down one of the only two dollars they had on a baker's counter snatched up a loaf, and ran back with it to au empty ship, in which they spent the ?H. L 2 u htaft Jf Japan th flre to throw off the weight f the ages of the East aud put on the mantle of the West was not to be kept down. Rut it is not a simple thing to leave undone to-day the thiugs we did through all the das of last year, and Japan did not easilr conquer itself. Everywhere there remained a lingering affection for the old Thirty-five short years, and to-day men tremble to think wtiat thirty-fire short hours may bring for this magical land oi the modern world.

MAIDS AND HI DO WS WANT TO WED VETERAN Prospect of Large Pension Makes a Centenarian a Desirable Matrimonial Candidate. ALBANY, N. Y.. Feb. 4. A bill introduced by Assemblyman Evans into the Legislature to increase the pension of Hiram Cronk, a one-hundred-and-four-year-old native of Dun Brook, Oneida eoui who is alleged to be the only surviver I f the war of 1812. brings to light a peculiar condition of affairs. It seems that Cronk is now the reclpi- t of numerous offers of marriage from won throughout the country. In whose hearts has dawned a love as ardent as unmercenary for this war-worn veteran. They fear the old man may be lonely and in need of the care of a tender and true wife This fear is in no way allayed by the fact t the widow could undoubtedly seek legislation in the future whereby she would l; cared for by the State as the relict of a a old soldier. Cronk has at present a pension from tie Federal government amounting to $U5 monthly, and Mr. Evans's bill provides that this amount be Increased by an addiM'mal pension from the State of $72. Its introduction appears to have been brought al by the desire of several kindly disposed persona that Cronk be given further pension by the State. He himself seems entirely satisfied with his present pension and somewhat at a loss to account for the sudden rise of his stock on the matrimonial market. BOY WHO KNEW, THE LAW, Quit School Four Minutes A fur Reaching Legal Age. PARIS, Feb. 4. Education is obligatory In France, but the law cannot compel children to remain at school after the ag thirteen. The other day. in a Paris school, a pupil suddenly got up in the middk of a lesson, gathered up his books and deposited them on a desk, took his hat and moved toward the door. "Where are you going?" demanded the teacher. "Sir," replied the boy imperturbably, "I was thirteen years of age ft ur minutes ago. and you have no longer any right to keep me at school." And he disappeared, leaving the teacher thun struck. As An Act of Humanity I ask you to tell me a friend who needs help. That is all just the cost of a penuy.
