Since Ben Selling announced his
candidacy for the United States
Senate it is evident that things
have been drifting his way at a
rapid rate. Selling has a clean
record in private as well as in
public life, and in politics he is
regarded as honest and efficient.

Ita Capacity Far Making Itaalf Is«
visibla In Dim L ig h t
“ In the wild state one seldom
as a lion either in repose or
majestically alert,” writes a corre­
spondent o f the London Times. “ A
glimpse the hunter may get o f him,
stanaing magnificently rigid when
suddenly disturbed in early morn­
ing at his kill o f overnight, and
more seldom it has been given to a
man to watch one, himself unob­
served, gazing from an eminence at
the grazing herd. But the lion is a
nocturnal animal, possessing an ex­
traordinary capacity for making it­
self invisible in dim light. Many a
sportsman has testified to the expe­
rience o f being unable to see a lion
on a night not altogether dark,
though it was so close that its
breathing was plainly audible, and
many a native o f Africa has fallen
victim to the sudden onslaught of
what, as he passed it a few feet
away, he took to be only a small
bush or the blot upon the darkness
made by a tussock o f grass.
“ The literature o f big game
shooting contains perhaps no inci­
dent more bloodcurdling th&n the
experience o f Dr. Aurel Schulz,
who, when with his gun bearer he
was stalking a hippopotamus at
‘ ' t found that a lion was in turn
ring them. By chance the gun
bearer noticed that a bush behind
them had a queer way o f being al­
ways about the same distance in
their rear. In spite o f the moon­
light they could not be certain that
it really was a bon, but when, to
test it, they turned upon their
tracks, imme«liately the shadowy
thing swept, dim and noiseless, in
a wide semicircle, so as to plant
itself again behind them. So, one
going backward with his face al­
ways to the lion, the hunted hunt­
ers made their way back to camp,
hippopotamuses having ceased to
interest them.”
As to the moral character o f the
beast, the same writer continues:
“ It has been said o f the lion that
he attacks only those who with­
stood him, scorning to strike one
who fled or sued for clemency,
wherein in real life if you run from
a lion be will chase you ; m ore­
over, that full grown men only were
his enemies, that he would not
harm babies. But in the lion house
one may see any day the eyes which
look so indifferently on the men
and women who come and go before
the cages light up with sudden sav­
agery as some small child toddles
alone across the floor. The lion
has learned that men and women
are not for him, but this smaller
creature— nice antelope size, soft
and helpless—presents itself to the
royal mind as easily killable.”
We trust that Col. Roosevelt
will be able to stick to what he
says is his wish. He does not
want to raise a personal issue
with the president. He wants
their competitive campaigns for
the Republican nomination con­
ducted along lines o f opinion,
and not o f personality. That is
a commendable desire, and we

Arthur was then a lad not out

child, kneeling by his little cot, had
gone through the regular formula,
“ Our Father,” “ Now I lay me,”
“ Please, God, remember papa and
mamma and little sister and dear
grandmother in England,” and had
then added, as an impromptu, “ and,
0 God, do please help papa through

I told this story at a dinner one

from the wife o f a clergyman, who,
with wonder and doubt in her voice,
demanded, “ Do you mean to tell
me that actors’ children say their
