WAR CLOUDS NOT SO BUCK Partial Settlement of Recount Ques tion---Senatorship, However, Keep* Solon* Guessing as to Whether Hopkins Will Retain His Seat. Springfield.--Simplicity and an ut ter lack of ostentatious display marked the inaugural ceremonies that were held at the-state capitol, incident to the' induction into office of Gov. Charles S. Deneen and the other Re publican state officers-elect. The cere monies that necessarily attended the inauguration of the new Btate officers were held in the hall of representa tives in the capitol building commenc ing promptly at. noc>n. In the evening there was a public reception in the ex ecutive offices at the statehouse. A military escort accompanied the state officers and the members of the inau gural party from the executive, man sion to the capitol building. Portions of the National Guard organization having headquarters in Springfield formed the military escort. These in cluded Company C, Fifth regiment commanded by Capt. M. F. O'Brien; Company H, Eighth regiment of col ored troops, commanded by Capt. Wil liam D. Hodge; Troop D, Fipst Illinois cavalry, commanded by Capt. Charles Walz, and the gatling section of the Fifth regiment, commanded by Lieut. Bert E. Styles. In a meeting that last ed less than two hours the joint com mittee of the house and senate per fected th? plans for the inaugural ceremonies. Because of the shortness of the time, the work of the committee was necessarily conducted rapidly, and in its initial session the joint commit tee practically completed plans. A new feature was added to the plans for the inauguration celebration. It was a state dinner given at the executive mansion, by Gov. and Mrs. Deneen to the members of the inaugu ral party, which includes the state offi cers, incoming and outging, the jus tices of the supreme court, the mem bers of the joint inaugural committee of the house and senate, Speaker Shurfleff and Senators Cullom and Hopkins, and the wives of all these of ficial*. Oglesby to the Rescue. Senator Albert J. Hopkins, who is ambitious to succeed himself as United States senator, came near being forgotten officially by the legislators. A quorum of each branch of the gen eral assembly got out of Springfield before it was discovered that a little formality in connection with the elec tion of United States senator had been forgotten. John G. Oglesby, who was inaugu rated lieutenant-governor Monday, told a handful of legislators Thursday that unless a joint resolution was adopted, providing for the election of a senator next week under the terms of the con stitution this act could not be attempt ed. Members of the general assembly who were here agreed that it would be well to comply with the constitution. Accordingly Dfivid E. Shanahan caused a joint resolution to be adopted providing that «*ch branch of the gen eral assembly tike a vote for the elec tion of a senator. It also stipulates that on the following day the mem bers meet in joint session to vote for a successor to Hopkins. Four members with Speaker Shurt- leff were in tP.e house when the reso lution was adapted and not more than half a dozen Senators were found in the upper branch to concur in the doc ument to complete the legislative pro cedure to mike it binding. Solona Listen to Mescagt. The soloas listened attentively to Gov. Deneen's biennial message to the assembly. It dealt with some of the most important subjects ever called to the attention of Illinois lawmakers. The message opened with a review of the projected deep waterway from Lake Michigan to the Gulf of Mexico, showing from engineers' reports the ^feasibility of the undertaking and ita jgreat commercial importance. It went on: . "The feature of main Interest to Illi nois in the report of the Internal Im provement commission is the discus sion of the possibilities of water power development in the proposed extension of the waterway between Lockport and Utlca. This power is estimated by the commission at approximately 140,000 gross electrical horsepower. For the sake of conservatism, however, this was estimated in the calculation showing the relation of revenue de rivable frgom water power to the cost of waterway construction, at 100,00C electrical horsepower. At the market price of $25 per horsepower per an num this would provide a net annual income to the state from $2,500,000 to $2,750,000. As the total estimated cost of^ construction of this division of the waterway and the development of all water power possibilities incident thereto 1b $18,652,986. It is estimated by the Internal Improvement commis sion that this revenue will repay the cost of waterway construction and wa ter power development in from 14 to 17 years from the inception of the work. The work itself can be complet ed in from four to five years, and it ia believed a revenue from water power will be afforded at the end of the third year." The troubles of the state with the Economy Light . & Power Company are enumerated. The case is now pend ing in the supreme court of the state. As a navigable waterway the com pleted channel will be under" federal control for navigation purposes, and it is hoped that the state may be able to secure federal aid in the construc tion of locks, thus decreasing material ly the construction cost to the state. Prompt consideration of the subject is asked of the assembly - with enactment of a law under which the work can proceed with celerity. The message goes deeply into condi tions affecting the charitable institu tions of the state, particularly the working of the civil service law, which the governor would have extended to other branches of the public service* He points out a number of improve ments claimed to have been made in the conduct of the institutions. Reports showing conditions are for warded with the message, for which the governor bespeaks the earnest con sideration of the assembly. Sherman Send* Hi* Resignation. On the ere of the expiration of his term as lieutenant governor of Illi nois, Judge Lawrence Y. Sherman sent his resignation to Gov. Deneen. Judge Sherman was unable to be present the inaugural cere monies, because of an important law case vhich demanded hi* pres ence in Proria, and this wai given as his reason for resigning. In his absence Senator S. C. Pembertcn, the retiring president pro tem., presided over the early morning session of th# senate au4 officiated in the inaugural program. « . Board of Health Officer*. The sttrte board of health elected the following officers: President, Dr. G. W. Webster; secretary and execu tive officer. Dr. J. A. Egan, Springfield. It was decided to recommend to the governor the creation of a state sani tarium for consumptives, and an ap- propriatiun for the creation of a state colony for epileptics, an increase in the appropriation for investigation of infectious diseases and distribution of diphtheria antitoxin will be asked. ILLINOIS STATE NEWS RAIL THAT CANNOT SPREAD. Petition Filed for Vote Recount. Members of the Democratic state central committee having in charge the recount petition of Adlai E. Stev enson, Democratic candidate for gov ernor at the November elections, filed one signed copy with Clerk McCann of the house of representatives and another with Secretary Paddock ol the Senate. Both copies were signed by Mr. Stevenson at Bloomington Monday night, in anticipation of the necessity of filing separate papers in each house and not a single set in joint session. Inaccuracies in ajll but nine of the 102 counties in Illinois in counting the vote for governor at the November elections are charged in the petition for a recount made to the general as sembly by Adlai E. Stevenson, DeMlo cratic candidate for governor. An approximate total of 50,000 votes more than, are shown by the election returns is claimed by Mr. Stevenson in his petition to the general assem bly, the text of which was made pub lic here. In the 93 counties cited by the petition as showing irregularities 65 are alleged to have made Wrong returns by the alleged simple flieana of counting for Deneen vote* Which were cast for Stevenson, In 28 others, it is charged, in addi tion, either that persons not uetural- Ised or persons not residents cf the county, or both, were allowed Co vote and did vote for Gov. Dene<w, and each of the 28 counties miscou«tting of votes properly cast also is Charged. The nine banner counties, against which no allegations are mad« are:, Calhoun, Iroquois, Kendall, Law rence, Pope, Stark, Tazewell!, Union and White. Parole, Not Pardon, for 8ten*i»nri. If Paul O. St en si and is released from the state penitentiary at Jollct ic will be on parole and not by pardon. This was evident from statement* mad# by Gov. Deneen and members c.t the wtate board of pardons. According to the. governor'* state ment a pardon has not beeo naked for the former president of the Jtfilwt jkee Avenue State bank. In fcsnformity with the parole law, Judg?

Joliet.--Bitter opposition to possible release of Paul O. Stensland, the ex- banker, from the Joliet penitentiary, and sensational attacks upon efforts to secure his pardon were brought to light by reports that the state board of pardons is to take up the case of the former president of the Milwaukee Avenue State bank.

Invention of Value Said to Have Been Made In Pittsburg. The prevention of all possible chance of breaking or spreading is the important advantage claimed for a steel rail and tie combined recently in vented and patented by two Pittsburg workingmen, J. J, Fitzgerald and Loulft McFarland. Railroad managers are watching the new device with the greatest interest,, for it it will do one- half what its inventors maintain, it will eliminate more than 90 per cent, of the accidents on American steam and electric roads. The construction at this new rail and tie is simplicity itself. It requires no nuts, bolts or fish plates, and when once in place can, it is said, be main tained in perfect condition at much less cost than the style now in use. A feature of the invention is the ingenious way in which the rail and tie are securely joined. This is done by means of a tapered round pin, split at the small end. This pin is inserted so tightly that the split end spreads out and holds It firmly in place. Add ed strength is secured by an improved tongue at the base of the rail which is said to be twice as strong as that in general use at present. The chance of breaking or spreading is further guarded against by the slot in the tie into which the tongue fits, and the fact that the new rail requires no welding prevents all danger of trouble from contraction or expansion of the metal. The difficulty which is experienced in securely imbedding the present flat beam cross ties is entirely re moved. The new tie is arched at the base, thus enabling the ballast to be packed solidly around it and a per manent foundation ^pcured in any kind of roadbed.--New York Ameri can/ 8ttp*hod Warning Sufficient. On one occasion the engine of a freight train in a certain island in the ^Vest Indies had completely broken dows. but no thought wsb given to the danger that threatened the follow ing passenger train till It happened to occur to an official that some steps should be taken to avoid another more serious accident. Accordingly, the man slowly rolled a cigarette, lighted and strolled up the line in the direc tlon of the approaching train, where having selected a comfortable position he sat down upon the grass at the side of the metals. As soon as the train approached, the man, by this time half asleep, raised himself from his Tecum bent position and held up a warning finger. This slipshod method of indicating danger was, however, quite sufficient to cause the driver to see that some' thing was wrong, and he promptly stopped the train and, alighting from his engine, proceeded to discuBs the weather, and Incidentally the break down, with the official upon .the bank COULD NOT SHAKE IT OFF.

Minionarle* Provide "Holy Famllle*" of Different Aspect*. A colporteur, delivering a New Tear address before a Sunday school, dis played a number of pictures and images of the Holy Family. "Here is a Holy Family for export to China," he said. The children laughed, for the Mary of the group was a China woman, with dwarfed feet and slanting eyes; Jo seph was an old Chinaman with a long, thin mustache and a queue; the sacred infant had the fiat nose and oblique eyes of China. "Here," said the colporteur, "Is a Holy Family for the Congo people." The children laughed again. Mary was now fat and black, with woolly hair; Joseph was a stalwart black war rior, a spear in his hand, a girdle of feathers about his waist; the infant, too, was black. "Our Holy Families for missionary use," the colporteur explained, "are always made in the likeness of the people they are to go among. Those simple and childlike people would be estranged by a white Holy Family. Only this sort shows them the Deity's real kinship with them selves." CAUGHT. Safety for Electrician*. The increased use of electricity on the Pennsylvania railroad has led to a study of the dangers of handling live wires and the methods that must be employed in resuscitating those who have been stunned by an electric shock. A special pair- of pliers has been designed which enables a man to cut a live wire carrying 23,000 volts •without danger to himself. To re move the wire from a body when no other means are at hand a coat is placed under the wire and lifted by the sleeves to raise the wire off the body. This was found perfectly safe, even when the garment was. damp Experiments with fire streams showed that there was no danger of the currerit flowing down the stream of water even from a high-voltage line when the operator held the noz zle at a distance of between three and four feet from the wire. Experiments with chemical extinguishers showed that they were very dangerous where a solid stream was played on the wire. said Trouble--Almost.

For an improbable occurrence the predicament which befell an English engine-fitter would be very hard to beat. In the course of his duties som$ time ago he had to take part in the repairing of a locomotive. To do this he had to squeeze him self into the water tank, the inlet of which was exceedingly small. He, however, managed to get inside with out much difficulty, but was horrified on finding that he could not possibly get out again. His fellow workmen did their best to get him out,^ but all In vain, and finally the helpless prisoner became utterly exhausted and lay in the tank unconscious. Before he could be res cued from his prison house the engine had to be taken to pieces, and a num ber of mechanics wer« imm'edlattiy summoned for the purpose.--English Paper.
