Magic Color Pictures.
A glass of water and a sponge or
I brush act like a box of paints on the
' wonderful "Watergraphs," which will
! appear in next Sunday's Philadelphia
Press. It's the cleverest novelty of the
year. The pictures are printed appar
ently in black ink. You touch them
with water, and in a second they be
come beautiful water color paintings.
No skill is needed- Children can do it
as well as grown folks. These "Water
graphs" are in addition to the myster
ious magic pictures, which you rub over
a blank space with a coin and a picture
appears.
The great puzzle-man, Sam Loyd, is
now on The Sunday Press staff of en

you, too. Order next Sunday's Phila

FIGHT FOli GOVERNOR
Most Remnrkable Struggle in the
History of Pennsylvania.
ILL CANDIDATES ARE GUESSING
The Contest For the Lieutenant Gov
ernorship Has Also Become One of
Intense Interest, With a Field of
Strong Candidates.
(Special Correspondence. •
Harrlsburg, May 27. —The contest
far the gubernatorial nomination con
tinues to occupy the attention of the
Republlcaa workers of the state and
the election of every delegate to the
state convention is a matter of very
serious moment in every locality in
which the primaries have not yet been
held.
Not for many years has there been
such a closely contested struggle for
party honors.
Thousands of county committeemen
and others identified with the party or
ganization are keeping tally on the re
turns from the counties, and speculat
ing as to the outcome of the struggle
for control of the state convention.
Attorney General Elkin,, former
Lieutenant Governor Watres and Judge
Pennypacker continue to be the only
avowed candidates for governor. Con
gressman Sibley, who was mentioned
for the place, has taken to the woods,
or rather gone back to Washington,
where he is devoting his entire time to
his congressional duties and not taking
any hand whatever in the hunt for
delegates.
The various other "favorite sons"
have reached the conclusion that they
are not wanted this time and they,
too, have gone back and will try to
forget that they ever thought of run
ning for governor.
ELKIN'S VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN
The Elkin campaign has progressed
with characteristic vigor and a number
of deleg-ates have been added to the
list of supporters of the "Indiana
6ounty Plow Boy." The candidate
himself has been on the go constantly.
He is managing his own fight. He is
meeting his own lieutenants, is keep
ing his own tally, and he is working
out his own plan of campaign.
Northampton county's convention
was held on Saturday last. It was an
enthusiastic Elkin gathering. The five
delegates to the state convention who
were elected signed a pledge which put
them on record for the Indiana county
candidate "as long as his name shall
be before the state convention." Gen
eral Frank Reeder, chairman of the
Republican State Committee, heads
this delegation in favor of Elkin for
governor.
The Elkin men also claim the votes
from Fulton, Fayette, Warren and Elk
counties, which held primaries on Sat
urday last. All these claims are not
conceded by their opponents, however.
Colonel Watres has emphatically de
nied the reports that he proposes to
withdraw from the canvass. He still
contends that ho is the "logical candi
date for governor with which to unite
all factions" and he contends that ho
still has a chance of winning the prize.
The activity of friends of Judge
Pennypacker in Philadelphia during
the last week has brought his boom
into prominence. The meeting held in
his behalf in the Witherspoon building
in Philadelphia resulted in the ap
pointment of a committee of fifty lead
ing citizens of the Quaker City who
have already begun to flood the state
with literature setting forth the de
sirability of Judge I'ennypacker's nom
ination, his devotion to the interests
of the commonwealth and his frequent
and vigorous rebukes to critics and tra
ducers of Pennsylvania, her state gov
ernment and her Republican leaders.
PIG FIGHT IN TIOGA.
Widespread interest is attracted to
the contest now being waged in Tioga
county for the delegates to the Repub
lican state convention.
This will be the last struggle, prob
ably, in which the people will have an
opportunity to vote directly for the in
dorsement of candidates for the Repub
lican nomination for governor. Tho
names of Elkin, Watres and Penny
packer will all be printed upon the
Official ballots and each participant at
the primaries will have a chance to in
dicate his favorite. The candidate re
ceiving the highest vote will have the
delegates to the state convention in
structed for him from this county.
Candidate Elkin is the only aspirant
for the nomination who has up to date
accepted an invitation togo into the
county and address the voters on the
issues of the canvass. He has arranged
to make speeches at different points
in the county on Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday of this week. The pri
maries will be held on Saturday next.
It was believed that Huntingdon
would present a similar condition of
r.ffairs, as it is the custom in Hunting
don to let the people pass upon the
randidacy of aspirants for state offices.
Elkin registered in the county and it
was said that Messrs. Watres and
Pennypacker would do likewise, but
when the last day for registration had
passed, it was found that Elkin was
ihe only candidate who had agreed to
submit his name to the voters. There
was but one set of candidates for dele
gates running, too, and these are
friends of Elkin. The primaries in
Huntingdon take place on Saturday
next and the Elkin men will, of course,
be elected.
LOOKING FOR SECOND PLACE.
The struggle for second place on the
Republican state ticket is becoming
more interesting every day.
Mayor Lewis, of Allentown, has bios-
corned out as a full fledged candidate
for lieutenant governor. He has the
backing of his Uome delegation and
these delegates refuse to pledge them
selves to any candidate for governor
j until they know what is to be done
| with the Lewis boom.
Dr. Flood, of Crawford county, for
i mer Senator Brown, of Lawrence, and
Colonel Clement, of Northumberland,
are also In the race for this office. Each
will have a large delegation at the
state convention.
There will surely be "a hot time In
that old town" that night.
