HOXSEY WILL TRY TO REPEAT FEAT

But Friends of Daring Aviator Arc Urging Him Not to Risk Life Again. (American News Service) Lot Aoge.es. Dec. 27. Though Arch Hoxcy, tbo famous young American aviator, la $3,000 richer today and holds tbo world' altitude record as the result of ascending 11.471 feet. more than two miles. Into the air at the aviation meet here yesterday, he announced this morning that he would attempt to smash his own record, during the present meet. The friends of the young aviator have en deavored to persuade him from risking his life In another flight of the kind, but he refused to heed their plea, believing that he would be able to go much higher. Many of tho aviators who are taking part In the meet declared today that the superiority of tho biplane ever the monoplane had been evidenc ed In the destruction of Hubert Iatham's Antoinette by the wind while a Wright biplane was soaring wifely through the clouds and making a new world's mark for altitude. Those who have contended for the superiority of the biplane pointed out that they were safer in high winds than the machines carrying the single plane and were more adapted for practical work In the air. America holds the altitude record after It has been held five times by France, once by Peru and onco by Holland. America had held it at three other periods during tho history of aviation before Hoxsey captured It yesterday. - Despite tho marvelous qualities of Hoxsey's flight, he declared that with nerfect conditions prevailing he would make 12,000 feet.

Reller. who has filled the office of county attorney for the past year with much credit to himself and the county, will have opposition from Ralph Husson and Gustavc Hoelscher both young attorneys.

Simpson Oxendine, tbe janitor of the first floor at the court house, will fight it out with several other applicants, their names already having been given to the county commissioners. 1 John F.

PARTY LINES NOW

GETS CLEANING President Taft Becomes Progressive and the Dove of Peace Cooing Loudly. (American News Service) Washington, Dec. 27. A movement for a third party along progressive lines with a progressive candidate for president in 1912 is to be anticipated and forestalled if possible. President Taft will become more progressive. Senators Cummins, Bortah and Bristow will be oftener in political party councils in the future, and Senator Lafollette will be too. if he will ac cept the invitations he has received. Taft is a candidate for renomina' tion and prepared to ngnt it neces sary to achieve the end. After some hesitation and much expressed dis inclination to go into the race again, he has been convinced by his imme diate advisers that It is his duty to lead his party again, and he will from this time forward "play the game" with whatever skill he can muster. In line with the plan, the president is working to 'rehabilitate" the Republican party. Such was the significance of the statement given out at the White House yesterday from tlie "highest official sources". that the president and Col. Roosevelt are in "almost daily communication. Of the Same Cloth. Of the same cloth is the statement that the president is to make the peace with the Republican insurgents That is why Lafollette's recommenda tions for office now receive favorable consideration. Almost daily conferences are held by the president with local politicians from various states in an effort to "iron cnt party wrinkles." A new 1 party chairman is soon to be selected. ir Hitcncock again, he will have to resign from the postoffice department Arthur Vorys of Ohio, who organized Taft's preliminary campaign for nomination in 1908, has been here for con ference and will come again soon at the president's invitation. He may take the rems of leadership. Rumors of cabinet changes are authoritatively denied. All is peace and composure in the party. Taft's friends believe Harmon is to be the Democratic nom inee. Recently the administration has begun to strengthen its forces in Ohio by giving out federal patronage. The president believes with Harmon as leader, the Democratic party will have Wall Street back- of it. and will make an appeal to the conservative la fluence.

BREAD AND WATER IS For Second Offenders at the County Jail When Albert Steen Is the Sheriff. Bread and water has been the diet promised by Sheriff-elect Albert R. Steen, to a number of "jail birds" of an inquiring disposition, who have asked the sheriff-elect what the menu at the county winter resort will be after January 1. They were informed that first offenders will get the regular Meredith diet, as Mr. Steen put it, but if they ever return, it will be bread and water. "Are you , honestly going to do that?" Inquired one of the dubious reporters. "So help me, as my name is Albert R. Steen, that is what I have promised the bums, and that'is what I am going to do," emphatically replied the sheriff-elect. He declared he had promised sucji a diet before his election and that ho intended to carry out to the letter this plank in his platform. x "My wife and I." said Mr. Steen, "have planned to follow the footsteps of Mr. and Mrs. Meredith and what was served the prisoners during their administration will be good enough, for the inmates during my administration if the men are up for first offenses." The sheriff-elect does not believe bread ahd water treatment will be inhuman in any way,. He will give the second offenders plenty of the diet, such as it is, although he does not anticipate there will be developed very many dyspeptics of those who partake of the simple menu. He intends that the jail shall be a place of penal correction. PHILOSOPHERS IN NATIONAL MEETING (American News Service) Princeton. N. J., Dec. 27. The tenth annual meeting of the American Phil osophical association which opened here today with a large attendance and which is scheduled to continue un til Thursday, promises to be of exceptional interest owing to the. action of the executive committee in deviating in its arrangements and plans from the routine observed at former meet ings. Subjects of unusual interest have been chosen for discussion and the program of the sessions has been arranged as to give more time to debate and the reading of polemic es says. It has also been so arranged that the business meetings are held at a time when they will not interfere with other matters. Two reaxs of Nature. Two contrasting freaks of nature are the Island of Fire and the Lake of Snow. The Island of Fire Is called the Home of Hot Devils. It Is situated in the midst of a large lake of boiling mud in the Island of Java. Tbe steam and gases which arise from the sticky mud form themselves Jnto bubbles attaining ,a diameter of five or six feet and sailing high up in the air like balloons, carried hither and thither by the wind and finally exploding with a loud crash. The biggest snow lake is seen from the summit of Hispar pass?, in the Karakoran range. It is more than 300 square miles in area. In Switzerland the sea of ice might better be called the sea of snow, as the surface is broken up by solar heat, which makes a minute fissuring in the ice, giving it the appearance of snow. A Shrewd Answer. Among the advertisements In an English paper there recently appeared the following: "The gentleman who found a purse with money In Burford street is requested to forward it to the address of the loser, as he was recognized. A few days later this reply was inserted: The recognized gentleman who picked up a puree in Burford street requests the loser to call at his house." Her Blunder. "What makes you think she's uncultured:-" "She thinks Ibsen's plays are stupid. "Well, a lot of people think so." "Yes. but she says so." Cleveland Leader. Repartee.
