SENATE SEEMS TO BE DIVIDED
ON OPINION AS TO WHETHER
GOVERNOR CAN APPOINT IN
CASE OF DEATH.
Washington, Aug. 9.—The opinion
of the Senate is divid'ed as to the
authority of Governor O’Neal,
Alabama, to call an election to fill
the vacancy caused by Senator John
ston’s death.
Some believed that Governor
O’Negl, acting upon Attorney-Gen
eral McReynold’s advice, was within
his powers, while others challenged
his right.
Senator Kearn, Majority Floor
leader, and Chairman of the Com
mittee on Privilege Legislation, will
accept the Attorney-General’s views.
He suggested, however, that a con
test may be expected if a Senator
present** himself from Alabama.
Senator Kearn also said the Ala
bama case will act as a precedent
for Maryland, where the Governor
has called an election without any
authority from the Legislature.

“Click Beetle,” According to State
ment of State Entomologist.
PU1NTF.HS IN NASHVILLE jto addresses, and little business
Nashville, Tan-n., Aug. 11.—The ] was transacted. By tomorrow, it is
Ifty-ninth annual convention of the J expected that seven hundred dele-
international Typographical Union J gates will be present. The Presi-
met here this morning. The often-j dent, James M. Lynch, presides over
ihg cession was confined principally. the meetings.
The bugs which were discovered by
Mr. C. L. Hancock, on his cotton,
near town, have been classified by
the State Entomologist as “click
beetle?.” They are not the boll
weevil, as was believed by some, but
are perfectly harmless, or almost
so. Mr. Hancock received a letter
from Mr. Worsham, which Is given
in detail as follows:
“Atlanta, Ga., July 22, 1913.
“Mr. C. L. Hancock,
Thomasville, Ga.
“Dear 31r: I have examined the
beetles which you sent me and I
find them to he “click beetles.” They
are more or less common on cotton
at this season of the year, but I
think you will find that they will
•not do any appreciable damage.
They are most commonly found on
bolls of cotton that have been at
tacked by boll rot, or “anthracnose.”
If you find them attacking these
bolls, would like very much for you
to write me to this effect.
“Kindly let nie hear f.om you If I
can be of further service.
“Very truly yours,
“E. L. WORSHAM,
“State Entomologist.”

ROLF MAKES BIG FEET
Atlanta, Aug. 11.—There is a
noted falling off of popularity of
golf among Atlanta maids ai\d ma
trons following the announcement
by some scientist that golf playing
enlarges the feet and destroys their
shapeliness.
Several debutantes who pride
themselves on the slender beauty of
their tootsies, h%v© given up the
game altogether. The medical man
has said that the twisting and turn
ing of certain muscles of the feet
and ankles have a tendency to make
feet spread and become flat.
It Is further averred that the very
twisting and turning in question is
absolutely essential in playing golf
