FACTS COMING TO LIGHT Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nevember 28, 1897. The reasons why certain republican mem- bers-elect of the legislature are lending their names to the ialk of opposition to the election of Senator Hanna are becoming well known, even to persons who take but little interest in politics. If the senator could divorce himself from his feelings as a man and also from the scramble for federal offices, the opposition would appear less formidable. As it all is now, the hos- tility appears to be based entirely upon personal enmity and jealousy on account of the federal offices that are yet to be dis- tributed. Henry Clay Mason’s Case. For instance, there is Representative- elect Henry Clay Mason. Harry, as he is commonly known among his associates, is a young lawyer, whose pride has been wounded by Senator Hanna's failure to shake hanés with him on sundry occasions. During the Cuyxhoga county convention. which preceded the state gathering at To- ledo, Mason rade a very indiscreet speech, setting forth all the strife and rivalries that afflict the republican party in this county. He gave rein to his hot-headed impulse and said some very mean things about the senator and his friends. Senator Hanna had never personally met DANGEROUS AFFECTIONS. The Sentiments of Love Are Divine But They Tend to Shorten the Life. “There is no way by which people exhaust them- selves, Kill themselves, so quickly as by exercising the affections.” This startling remark was made hy one of the best physicians in Americn. He was a man who had studied deeply. observed keenly and who knew men and women thoronghly, Continaing, he satd: “Sentiment ix a grand. a lovely thing, and the ‘orld cannot live without it, but the exercise of Peopie may A man or the seatiments invariably exhausts, ot feel ft. but it ix true nevertheless, te instincis, the feelings were not high, the sentiments were not keen, the passions were not aroused, but in the present day of breeding. of feeling, men and women may enjoy much, but they exbaust quicker.

The War Department Has Ordered an Official Investigation, From the St. Louis Republic. This great government of the United States of North America is out two pair of socks, and the Secretary of War is either going to find these socks or know the rea- son why. A year ago last October Uncle Sam pur- chased a box of socks in Philadelphia and shipped them to the quartermaster’s de- partment in St. Louis. The box was not opened until one day last week, and then the discovery was made that a strict count showed two pair short, and this infor- mation was imparted to the officials at Washington. A council of war was held, and then the War Department arese to the greatness of the occasion, and, imitating Napoleon at Austerlitz, as well as circum- stances would permit, the Secretary is- sued the following order concerning the socks: “By direction of the Secretary of War, a board of survey, to consist of Lieutenant Colonel Gilbert C. Smith, deputy ee master general; Lieutenant Colonel Wm. H. Nash, assistant commissary general of subsistence, and Captain Owen J. Sweet, th Infantry, will assemble at the cloth- ing depot of the quartermaster’s depart- ment, St. Louis, November 24, or as soon thereafter as practicable, to investigate and determine upon the matter of a dis- crepancy alleged to have been found be- tween the marked and the actual contents of an original box of woolen stockings re- ceived at that depot by invoice from the Philadelphia depot on or about the 5th day of October, 1896, and opened November 1, 1897, and will, unless otherwise directed, assemble at the clothing depot from time to time, as the occasion may require, at the call of the senior officer, for the per- pose of fixing the responsibility.” The board of survey had not arrived at the quartermaster’s department when a Republic reporter called yesterday ufter- noon, and learned from the polite offi the extent of the government's loss, and they had no information as to the exact time when the important investigation will open. They were quite certain, however, that the total loss would not exceed three pairs of socks, and the general impression was that only two pairs were missing. The loss occurred before the goods reached St. Louis, and hence no one will be crucified in the neighborhood of this city, out cer- repenting of their sins. Winter is coming and Uncle Sam does not propose to go without socks. ————_+eo__. A Breezy Call, From the Clevelani Plain Dealer. He was a tough boy, and he didn’t care who suspected it. He came into the office, and in a brusque and reckless fashion demanded the portrait “cut” of a certain well-known character. The matter was looked up, and he was told that the por- trait’ would necessitate an outlay on his part of $1.25. “Where's de phone?” queried the tough | boy. He entered the box, ina voice that + “Gimme me aoe ‘—hullo, wot’s de mat- ter wid you? Can’ you git it? Gimme Ratzy- ‘Wat's you givin’ "as? up a Ratay—hi Date’ ae aan 'S me. dolar 'n’ quarter for dat cut. Wat's dat? Yes, cough Cough—cough Ne Cough—k-o-f, cough. Wot doce it mean?

Yes, Fu ag down.” telephone door, cleared his throat = ) influence upon Mason’s campaign for nomi- nation, and when the votes were counted, Harry was among the twelve chosen by the republicans of Cuyahoga county to make the canvass for the legislature. Hanna and Mason met a second time-at the open- ing of the campaign at Burton, Ohio. They met face to face. Mason smiled ard half- way extended his hand, but Kanna did not see it. The sky was more interesting to the junior senator just then. Mason’s face flushed and he stammered for a moment, then turned and walked away. The cut was the most direct that could have been given. When the campaign was well on, Mason talked freely about the man for whom he was supposed to vote, in case of his elec- tion, for United States senator. Hanna’s friends said that his utterances were out- rageous, but Hanna paid no attention to the matter. His friends tried to persuade him that open warfare should be made on Mason. The chairman of the natianal committee, however, decided that such game was too small for him to go afte: His friends, however, showed their dis: probation by voting against Harry to suc an extent that he was elected by less than 300 majority. The rest of the legislative ticket was elected by pluralities ranging from five to 1,500. Tats is presumably why Mason is in the anti-Hanna movement. The fact that he is a Foraker and Mc- Kisson man is quite secondary to that of his personal feeling against Hanna. A Cane of Conttacts. Representative Fred M. Bramley has no particular feeling against Senator Hanna. He is a paving contractor. The McKisson administration has many paving contracts to give out, therefore, it’ is not at all strange that Bramley feels under obligation to help the blue-eyed boy mayor in politics. Of course, open favoritism cannot | be shown by McKisson, or his director of pub- lic works, in awarding paving contracts, but then a friend at court is a valuable ad- junct to any contractor’s outfit. Bramley was formerly afliliated with the Hanna fac- uion, but when the MeKisson star rose, it seemed the part of good policy for Bramley to hitch his wagon thereto. Bramley was a member of the McKisson committee of fifteen which was inconti- nently kicked into the street when the Hanna folks gained control of the Cuyaho- #a county organization last spring. That may have caused Frederick to have & bruised heart, but his opposition is .sup- pcsed to be based upon business reasons al- together. Yearns for the Ermine. Senator-elect Vernon Burke has a soulful yearning to thfow the ermine about his broad shoulders and perch himself upon the Cuyahoga county common pleas bench. He has been a candidate for the nomi tion for police judge on two occasions, but as he half way acknowledged allegiance to e Hanna machine, he was never success- About a year ago, or more, he ap- peared as a McKissonite in-good and regu- lar and high standing. Since he changed factional leaders, as the Hanna men al- lege, he has had no opportunity tw ask for a judicial nomination, so it is not known definitely whether he has given up that aspiration or whether he still cher- ishes it. He probably does. The McKis- son crowd took a great fancy tq Vernon, and when they made up their legisiat’ Burke was put at the nead of it. He justified their expectation, that he would prove a good runner, by getting a very large vote at the primary election. After his nomination a good many of the Hanna workers said sarcastic things about his change of leaders which rather pro- voked. him. His temper is about as hizh as Mason’s, and he answered back in cvea more sarcastic and stinging tones. His talent in that line is greater chan Mason's. aimself into The result was that he workei a fury against the Hanna men, and he has not come out of his wrathful mood even a little bit since the election. He, too, was a member of the committee of fifteen, the fate of which has already been described. Senator-Elect Wightm: Now the men heretofore mentioned are legislators-elect from Senator Manna’s own county. They are the most pronounced 91 the non-committal ones Gf tha: is not solecism) that are classed ag anti-Hanna. Six or seven other members in other parts of the state are also set down as surely opposed to the senator. But tnere is a good deal more Goubt about them than there is about Senator-elect C. D. Wightman, who represents a district directly soiith of this city. He is not only a rampant Forakerite, but he is also a man with a very large grievance. His grievance is incxer even than the combined grievances of the Cuye- hogans. Early in the year Wightman was a can- didate for the senatorial nommation, bat Major Dick and the other Hanna managers opposed him and prevented ils selection. Mr. McDowell, a banker who was a Mc- Kinley elector, received the nomination. He died before election day. The Guty of choosing his successor devolved upon the executive committee, which consisted of two members from each county constitut- ing the senatorial district. Ihe members of this body. were chosen by the delegates from each county, acting asa body entirely of the convention, Senacor Hanners friends controlled the convention, but not_a majority of the delegations.

Whether that rej port had anything to do with Mr. change to Wightman is a matter for mu = speculation hereabouts. Rumor has it that the senator was interviewed by some of Mr. Nichols’ friends, and that he gave them no assurance that Mr. Nichols should be marshal. Now the story is going around that Senator Wightman will insist that Mr. Nichols be taken care of. A vote against Senator Hanna by Mr. Wightman would probably blast his politi- cal career, for he represents a district not- €d for its adherence in cases of factional division to the McKinley-Sherman-Hanna connection. The Cuyahoga countrymen have noi so much to fear on that score. It is a fact, though a very peculiar one, that the factions of the two great parties in this county have a habit of combining in nearly every election. The Tom Johnson wing of the democracy, composed largely of young men, lines up with the Forak McKisson faction. The Brice-Farley con- nection, in nearly every election during the past five years, has taken sides with the i N the alignment last spring when the Hanna workers bolted Mayor McKis- son. The line-up this fail was the same If the Johnson men, led by Charles P. Sa- len, had not supported Messrs. Mason, Bramley and Burke, they would have been defe:ited. If the Brice-Farley men had not worked for the Hanna legislative candi- dates, they would probably have gone down. The strong factional men in both parties worked shoulder to shoulder. McKisson owes his re-election to the men who follow Charles P. Salen, whose pro- vision company sells much to the city in. firmary, which is administered by “Kis- son’s appointees. Now Mason, Bramley and Burke have this element to fall back upon, but Senator Wightman has nothing of the kind. For that reason the question of his adherence to the alleged anti-Hanna move- ment ir very great. If he doe# it will be a greater show of nerve than any of the city Foraker men will be called upon to make. The First Scientific Kite Flying. From Popular Science Monthly. The famous kite experiment is described », by Franklin in a letter dated October 1752: “Make a small cross of light sticks of cedar, the arms so long as to reach to the four corners of a large, thin sik handkerchief when extended. Tie the cor- vers of the handkerchief to the extremi- ties of the cross, so you have the body of a kite, which, being properly accom- modated with a tail, loop and string, will rise in the alr like those made of paper. out being made of silk is better fitted to bear the wet and wind of a thunder gust without tearing. To the top of the up- right stick of the cross is to be fixed a very arp-pointed wire rising a fot or more above the wood. To the end of the twine next the hand is to be tied a silk ribbon, and where the silk and twine join a key may be fastened. This kite is to be raised when a thurder gust appear to be coming on, and the person who holds the string must stand within a door or window or under some cover, so that the silk ribbon may not be wet, and care must be taken that the twine does not touch the frame of the door or window. As soon as the thunder clouds eome over the kite the pointed wire wiil draw the electric fire from them, and the kite, with all the twine, will be electrified and stand out every way and te attracted by an ap- prosching finger. And when the rain has wet the kite and twine you will find the eectric fire stream out plentifully from the key on the approach of your knuckle.” The officials of the Glasgow, Scotland, Joiners’ Union have posted notices in all the shops of that city forbidding members of the union to hang doors which have been made in the United States.
