Washington, April 25.--Governor Woodrow Wilson is to swing around the circle and light the bonfires for lils 1 !. I 2 boom for President. Following the Governor's promi nence in tho choice of a Democratic standard bearer in the Legislature just adjourned, and coming close upon tho formal launching ol' the Harmon boon? by the Democratic del egation from Ohio, the report has set political tongues wagging. That Co vernor Wilson has many friends throughout the country, and that his cour.se since his inaugura tion bas been one to commend him to the favorable notice of the coun try as a man to be carefully consid ered in the choice of a Democratic standard bearer, is admitted. Speaking of possible candidates for the Presidential nomination, the Hon. ('hamp (Mark is not to be overlooked. He is secretly nourishing a great hope that ho will be discovered as tho Democratic party's hope. His friends are busy, and there is much talk about the new Speaker's future political course. Tho excursion of Governor Wilson Into Mr. (Mark's particular bailiwick, the Middle West, In the course of which he will call on Mr. Brynn at Lincoln, Nebraska, is somewhat dis turbing to Hie Missouri statesman.

He brought charges against well known and honest business men of the State and then denied them the right of an Impartial investiga tion. When the Governor named the new commission, one member of which is his former law partner, F. H. Domi nick, he said that he had turned over his special message to the General Assembly in which the charges against the old commission were contained, with instructions to make a thorough investigation. This move is considered by many as the first steps of a pot of "white wash." The members of the. old commis sion will insist on an investigation and will very probably petition the General Assembly to pass a special measure, over tho Governor's veto, for this power would no doubt be applied to any measure of such na ture hy the Chief Executive, The new com mission will meet in Columbia In the near future, when some kind of work will he resumed, tho nature of which has not been stated.

When asked if ?motlier Felder letter had been received, he replied: "I have not received a letter from, Mr. Fel der." Several days ago T. U. Felder ad dressed a letter to the commission in which he discussed the contract by the State of South Carolina with his firm at length. la this letter he stated that he had certain infor mai ion with referente io tho Rich land Distilling case and pointed out the fact that by tho cancellation of tho contract that a largo sum of money lind been lost to tho State of South Carolina, which would have been recovered had the case been left with Anderosn, Folder, Roun tree & Wilson.

April 27.-Delayed ad vices received here via Jolo reported that the Dutch have taken possession of Patinas Island, 60 miles southeast of Mindanao, lowered the United States colors and substituted the flag of Holland. It is understood here that Wash ington does not intend to protest against the action of the Dutch the United States regarding the island as valueless. Not Much of a Prize. Washington, April 26.-A little head native Filipino found proudly wearing ? cap, probably the gift of a Dutch captain, precipitated the issue of sovereignty over the Patinas Is lands about two years ago, and the state department hurriedly consulted its maps and records, but the w hole question died almost at is inception f< r ant * Interest Thc Washlng il lia ii particular . 1 .

Roosevelt stopped in Chicago the other day long enough to buy 23 pounds of books to read on his way to New York. If it require? 23 pounds of books to while away a trip to New York, then one can readily see that it will require 115 pounds to take him across the continent. So many people read by the square foot, or by lineal measurement. Once in a while some one will peruse things by cubic estimate, and in rare instances people have been known to go into the fourth dimension. But the pounds system, avoirdupois, is best. One will not over-read then. A pocket scales may be kept handy and the day's allotment weighed out in the morning. Authors will be helped, too.

Hyde, under sentence of life impris ment for the murder of Col. Thomas H. Swope, was released from the county jail to-day on a writ of habeas corpus. The Hyde case recently was revers ed and remanded for a new trial by the Supreme Court. In the opinion of the circuit court judges the majority of the evidence on which the physician was convicted was circumstantial and there was a reasonable doubt of his guilt. The opinion rendered this morning also takes into consideration the fact that Judge Ralph Latshaw. trial judge, had once admitted Dr. Hyde to bond. This bond was revoked during the trial of the murder case by Judge Latshaw and Hyde was committed to the county Jail. After the reading of the decision the ball of Hyde was Bet at $50,000.

A public man of Georgia believes his State excels all others In Its sense of civic and political honesty. This story is given in the Sunday Maga zine to prove it : A wealthy farmer named Sneads, who, although he could neither read nor write, was elected to the Georgia Legislature, was a power In politics because of his sterling honesty. When he arrived at Atlanta he was Invited to luncheon at a swell hotel by ano ther member of the Legislature. Sneads* host nonchalantly passed him the bill of fare. Sneads hold lt before him as if studying lt intently. "Well, how does that bill look to you?" asked the host, unaware of his guest's inability to read. "Well, it may be all right," replied Sneads, slapping it down on the table, "but you don't catch me votin' for it till 1 know more about lt!"

Immovable and Speech less for Hours on Peed Box. (New York Herald.) Like a human statue, Louis Pi 24 years old, was found by fe : workmen standing upon a fee? x In a livery stable, where he has be< employed for several months. IfM eyes were closed, his arms extends I, and not a muscle moved. Thii l< ? that the stableman had been hypno tized, Mrs. Theresa Lack, own- ' ti the stable, telephoned to the police, Thinking the man was sbamin i.g, Policeman McCoy tapped him with his night stick. When this fallet! to arouse him the policeman tried ?cm ling him. Frank moved not a muscio and neither did he utter a word. This alarmed Policeman McCoy, and f he summoned Dr. L. P. Botsford, of I Flower Hospita' V Dr. Botsford s convinced that the stableman w. suffering from a Bevere attack of catalepsy. He mov<^i one of Frank's arms down a littra ways and there lt remained. He tried the same experiment with the man's legs and found that Frank re mained in any position he was placed In. So interested was Dr. Botsford that he remained with the patient for some, time after he had been re moved to Bellevue Hospital. Scorei of persons gathered around tho en trance to the stable when Policeman J McCoy and several other persons placed Frank In an ambulance. At Bellevue Hospital physicians and surgeons gathered in the ward where Frank was taken, and lt was several hours before the patient was restored to consciousness. Pins were stuck in his arms and hospital at tendants shouted in his ear. but nothing seemed to affect the stable man or to arouse him. Ile recovered consciousness late in the afternoon, and at the hospital later it was said that ho was resting well and will recover. Dr. Botsford said that catalepsy ls a rare disease, and that the numbffr Of eases treated in New York hos pitals is very small. The disease, ac cording to medical authorities, is a condition of morbid sleep associated with loss of voluntary motion and a peculiar plastic rigidity of tho mus cles, by reason of which the person afllicled will take any position ?<k which he may be placed and preservo it for an Indefinite time. The condi tion, physicians say, is associated with hysteria, with forms of insanity, and is a stage of hypnotic sleep. Scores of physicians Inquired at Bellevue Hospital by telephone as to Frank's condition, and an unusual interest was displayed by the tiOUSqi physicians in the efforts which were* being made to restore the mau to consciousness.
