IT"",, , $ racuonausm may lviaKc ne !v organization of Democratic State Committee Stormy r One of the oldtlme factional fights, "fcuch as marked the leadership of Col. James GufTey, Is anticipated when the Democratic State Committee meets for reorganization in Harrisburg Wednes day, June 19. The demand of Municipal Court Judge Bonnlwell, Democratic gubernatorial nominee, that the entire machinery of the State committee be turned over to him has precipitated t)i new row. A. Mitchell Palmer, the controlling figure in the State Democracy, does not Intend to surrender the committee to Judge Bonnlwell and plans to Ignore the Democratic nominee unless the Judge becomes more moderate In his demands. An indication of thje bitterness Is evi dent from the fact that Palmer came to Philadelphia Saturday, but left the city without going near Judge Bonnlwell. Friends of Judge Bonnlwell are said to have demanded the privilege of nam ing all tho officers of the State com mittee ; removal of tho headquarters from Harrisburg to Philadelphia; In corporation of a "wet" plank in the State platform and the assessment of all Federal officeholders in Pennsyl vania. None of these demands are likely to be acceded to by Palmer and his friends, who control the State com mittee by a big majority. Following the nomination of Judge Bonnlwell he was assured that tho State organization would "go along" and that a chairman faorable to him would be named by the State committee. Bonnl well then suggested Congressman Ar thur G. Dewalt, of Allcntown, for the post of chairman, and when the sug gestion met with disfavor substituted the names of cither Jonathan C. Fred ericks or Malcom C. Gross, both of Lehigh County, i The latter two do not meet with any mnro favor than Congressman Dewalt, an they have been violent opponents J of the Palmer leadership. "Excessive and unreasonable. Is the manner in which Palmer has termed Judge Bonniwell's demands. One-Day Shore Trips to Be $1.75 Astronomers are much interested In the discovery of a new temporary star by Professor C. T. Olivier, of the Uni versity of Virginia. It Is located In the constellation Aqulla and Is remarkable for Its extreme brightness. Professor Samuel G. Barton, of the University of Pennsylvania, who writes of the new discovery In the heavens, says that there are only eight stars In the whole sky brighter than the one found by Professor Olivier and that of these two aie not visible here. The attention of scientists, which was directed to the eclipse of the sun last Saturday, will now be turned to Profes sor Ollvier's discovery.

Professor Barton, of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania, writes, the fol lowing account of the remarkable dis covery : "A newspaper dispatch tells of the discovery of a ery br!!llant-new or tem porary star In Aqulla by Prof. C. T. Olivier at the University of Virginia on June 8. The star was then half a magnitude brighter than a star of the first magnitude. "In many ways the discovery Is re markable. There are but about forty such temporary stars which have been discovered. This one is one of the very brightest known and reached a very great brightness before It was dis covered. There are but eight stars In the whole sky brighter than this and two of these are never visible here. Vega Capella and Arcturus alone in the eve ning sky are brighter. "A new star which attained a greater brightness than this was discovered on February 22, 1001, called Nova l'ersci. On February 19 It was not brighter than tho twelfth magnitude. On February 23 It was a magnitude and a half brighter than a star of the first magnitude or 20,000 times as bright' as on February 19. In a day it lost a third of Its brightness and In a year had again dwindled to the twelfth magnitude.

It can he located very easily by reason of Its brightness by any ono who has a slight knowledge of the stars. Whether It has Increased or decreased In brightness since discovery I do not know, but it' wilt prove to be a very interesting object for amateurs to observe and of course astronomers will give it much study.

She arrived with other passengers of a French liner after thrilling epeilences In races to avoid submarines and torpedoes. Friends and strangers alike have be sieged Mls Hayden with telephone calls all day, wanting to hear her experiences as a worker at the front. With n mod eMy that amounts almost to shyness, she courteously refused to talk about herself "I have done nothing sensational and there Is nothing really to tell," she de clared. "There Is a great need for young women workers In France, and naturally the woik Is cxcecdlnglv Inter esting to those who are really In iar nest.

Cowoikers of Miss Hayden in France have reported that she displayed more "pep" than any woman behind the lines.

I knew the noise of the typewriter annoyed the men around me, and in a vague, indefinite way I knew it made me nervous. But it didn't seem possible that such a thing as the Noiseless Typewriter was really practical. "But we argued this way: If the Noiseless Typewriter is really all they claim it to be, thenwe ought to know about it. And if it isn't, why I can tell that myself in ten minutes' trial. "So we put in just one machine. Three years ago that was, and it's still here along with many others: I'm going to try and tell you in a few words why I like it best of all. "The Noiseless spares my nerves. I give more attention to my work with less effort make fewer mis takesdo more work better work. "I work steadily. That means a great deal. Formerly I had to stop writing whenever Mr. Gardiner was answering the 'phone. Sometimes that was every ten or fifteen minutes. Often I'd be all piled up with work at the end of the day, simply"because of these interruptions.- "Both my employer and myself are naturally well pleased with the Noiseless. My friends say I am fortunate in having such a nice posi tion, but I know I owe a good bit of my successto the Noiseless. It is a real typewriter, and you ought to know more about it."
