Formation of Icebergs.
The proportion of an Iceberg which
will be under water Is determined by
comparing the density of the lea with
that of the surrounding sea water.
The densities of Ice end sea water are
nearly .92 and 1.03, recpectlvely, from
which It can be calculated that only
abort one-ninth of the berg'a bulk la
visible above the surface.
No ice
berg could float with one-third of Ita

Fashion la woman’s literature. Dress

By dress she conveys the outward ex

It Is thus that she contrives to

Four Years of Real Joy.
Germany has added another to Its
list of distinctions. It has produced
the perfect truant. A boy of Dortmund
was transferred from one school to
another; he found out that his name
was not entered on the register. That
was four years ago. Since then he
has gone from home every morning
with his bag of school books, and
each evening at the appointed hour he
has returned. It has now been dis
covered that the new school has never
seen him, and that he has had four
years of vagabondage.

Baltimore, June 25. — William J.
Bryan met defeat today at the hande
o f the Democratic National convention
and in the opinion o f many o f the
part; leaders here, eliminated himself
from the race for the presidential
nomination. The vote by which Alton
B. Parker, o f New York, was elected
temporary chairman over Mr. Bryan
— 759 to 610— was interpreted to
night in many ways.
The Champ
Clark adherents are openly claiming
the nomination and there were many
who are inclined to agree that it
would be either Speaker Clark or a
“ dark horse.’ ’
Talk o f Mr. Bryan has not ceased
by any means. Some o f his friends
assert that today’s vote was no test;
that many o f his most ardent suppor
ters were compelled by circumstances
to vote against him as temporary
chairman. They Baid, on the other
hand, that the vote o f 510 given to
Mr. Bryan indicated that he held a
“ veto” power in the convention which
put him in a position o f dominance as
to who should be the nominee.
Many o f Speaker Clark’s delegates
openly threw their support to the anti-
Bryan forces. This was regarded as
opening a breach between the speaker
and the former nominee which may
cause the Bryan supporters to make a
bitter fight on Clark. Taken from an
other angle, the support o f so many
Clark adherents for Parker was inter
preted to a distinct bid for the sup
port o f the conservative element in
the convention.
This conservative element, it may
be said, virtually is prepared to ac
cept a radical or “ progressive” candi
date. The consrevatives frankly ad
mit that to name a conservative or so-
called reactionary, would result in
strengthening the hands o f Colonel
Roosevet in his organization o f a third
party.

to avoid.

FORCIBLE FEEDING ANGERS.
Socialists Assail Asquith for
ment o f Suffragettes.
Treat
London— Intense embitterment has
been engendered in England by the
forcible feeding o f the imprisoned
sulfrmgettes, who declared a hunger
■trike while in jail. This was reflect
ed in an extraordinary scene in the
house o f commons, when George Land-
hury, a Socialist member, denounced
Premier Asquith and the government
in such vitriolic terms that the speak
er ordered him to leave the house and
threatened to have him ejected unless
he went out voluntarily.
Timothy Healey, the Nationalist,
had appealed to Premier Asquith to
release the women and the premier re
plied that they could leave prison on
giving a promise not to repeat their
offense.
Mr. Landbury immediately project
ed himself at the treasury bench,
shaking his fist in the faces o f Pre
mier Asquith and the other ministers.
With his face only a few inches from
that o f Mr. Asquith, Mr. Landbury
screamed;
“ You’re beneath contempt.
You
know that the women cannot give such
an undertaking. It is dishonorable to
ask them to do so. Talk o f Russian
atrocities! Why, you w ill go down in
history as the torturers and murderers
o f innocent women: You ought to be
driven out o f office!”
The house was quickly in disorder.
The speaker, however, finally secured
quiet and ordered Mr. Landbury to
leave. He replied:
“ I ’m going out while these con
temptible things are torturing and
murdering women.”
He yelled this out in a loud voice
and appeared to be much overwrought,
but when the speaker warned him that
he would be forcibly ejected unless he
went o f his own accord, the labor
members gathered about their col
league and induced him to quit.
Three suffragettes nearly succeeded
in invading the house o f commons.
They obtained admission to St. Steph
en’s Ha'l, where they smashed the
glass panels o f the door leading to the
central hall, when they were seized by
police and taken to the station house.
The militant tactics o f the suffra
gettes has assumed a new form. On
the arrival o f a train from Tunbridge
Wells at Victoria station, in London,
it was discovered that many windows
had been smashed, carriage fittings
and cushions cut and destroyed and the
walls plastered with written demands
for votes for women and the abolition
o f forcible feeding.
The culprits
were not discovered.
Another batch o f suffragettes who
had been on hunger strike were liber
ated from prison.
