GUNNELL IN S WOUNDS CONSIDERED TACK CLAIMED TO St. Louls, Mo., April 8.—One of the most disgraceful affairs that has occured among the better class of Negroes in the City of St. Louis was the murderous assault upon W. A. Gunnell, Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge K. of P. of Missouri, by C. K. Robinson, Secretary of the Supreme Lodge K. of P. Monday last, about 8:15 p. m. The trouble occured in the office of Mr. Gunnell at Pythian Hall, 3137 Pine Street, and was the result of a dispute over a bill for supplies furnished the Grand Lodge. It is the first disgraceful act committed by any one on the premises, which is the headquarters for the K. of P. of Missouri and contains the offices of the Grand Chancellor, Grand Secretary, Treasurer of the Endowment, and manager of the building. Grand Chancellor Lloyd was not in the building at the time, he having been assigned to speak at St. James' Church in Elleardsville, not returning until 10:30 p. m. When seen by an Afro-American representative at his home, Mr. Gunnell made the following statement: "I made a business engagement to meet Mr. Rouinson at my office Monday, April 3rd, at 8 p. m., to assist me in adjusting the records turned over to me by him which he had kept as Secretary of the Pythian Hall Commission. I have repeatedly requested this meeting, for the reason that the Beneficiary Board now controls the property, and the members at the last quarterly meeting instructed me to get with Mr. Robinson and go over the records and adjust some discrepancies, as they could not understand the records left by Mr. Robinson. Having recently received a bill for supplies from Mr. Robinson covering items which my records show have been paid, I thought it a good idea to go over this account with him and thus save him a second trip to my office, or myself a trip to his office. "When I asked him to explain why the Grand Lodge should be charged for items which had been paid, he became very angry, which led to the argument, I insisting that I wanted him to explain the bill. I was seated at my desk behind a small table, and Robinson was seated at the opposite side of the table facing me. During the argument Robinson called me a fool, and I replied in kind when suddenly he sprang to his feet, rushed to me and struck me in the left eye before I could rise from my chair. As quickly as I could get to my feet, I grappled with him striking as best I could to defend myself, while he as I thought, was punching me in the stomach and side. At this juncture we were separated, when I learned for the first time that the big coward had been stabbing me, while I thought he was fighting like a man, as I was. I had no idea that he was going to strike me, much less attempt to take my life, over a trivial business argument. "I do not regret my injuries as much as I do the degradation and shame the brutal act of Robinson will bring to our organization and race. "I am the man who, as Supreme Representative at the Supreme Lodge session at Kansas City, Mo., in 1909, when his former supporters were deserting him, made the speech nominating him for the office to which he was elected and is now filling, but which he has forever disgraced. If I recover I feel it my duty to my family, organization, the community and my race to prosecute this brute to the full extent of the law. I have never had any ill feeling toward Robinson; on the contrary, I have given him all the business from my office for printing, and have always spoken a good word for him when the occasion demanded it." "I had occasion to call at the office of Mr. Gunnell about 8:15 p.m., April 3rd, in company with Mr. Ernest Bell. As I approached the door of the office I heard loud talking and as I came closer to the door with the iron grating I saw Mr. Gunnell seated at the desk, and I heard a man exclaim, 'You are a fool!' and Mr. Mr. Gunnell replied by repeating the name when the man whom I then recognized as C. K. Robinson, sprang at Mr. Gunnell and struck him in the face while he was seated at the desk. Mr. Gunnell then clinched with Robinson and they both fell against the door, preventing my getting in at once to separate DENVER. COLORADO, SATURDAY, APRIL 22 1911. them. Finally with the assistance of Mr Bell, I forced them away from the door, got into the room and separated them. "When we all came out into an adjoining room, still keeping the men separated, we were horrified to learn that Mr. Robinson had stabbed Mr. Gunnell several times." The statement of Mr. Dunn was fully corroborated by Mr. Bell, who was also an eye witness. Robinson, after the stabbing, at once left the hall, but was arrested Tuesday morning at his place of business on Market street by officers of the Eighth District. He was later released on bond pending the result of Gunnell's wounds.—From Central Afro-American. ENDORSE TRUE REFORMERS. Richmond, Va., April 11.—A paper containing the signature of the leading judges, mayor, postmaster, etc., of Richmond, has been circulated endorsing the True Reformers, which reads: We, the undersigned, believe it is the duty of every citizen of Richmond to do everything in his or her power to help save the True Reformers, because of the untold good that the organization has done for the colored people of this city, state and country. It has taught habits of thrift and self reliance and by its influence the number of paupers have been reduced thereby. We have confidence in the present management and believe that all contributions will be properly applied. Directly after the recent extra session in February, a campaign was inaugurated to raise by April 15, $37,000. The clerks in the office have raised by giving entertainments and the white citizens' contributions will reach about $4,000 or $5,000. The officials expect to accomplish this purpose by April 15. In an interview with a representative of the press the officials state that $65,713.72 had been raised the failure of the bank, by the organization and over $30,000 had been paid out by death claims. It is evident that a large number of the membership over the country have been loyal The consensus of opinion is that the organization will rehabitate itself and will be managed along sane business lines and placed upon a basis assuring greater success than ever before. The consensus of opinion is that the organization will rehabilitate itself and will be managed along sane business lines and placed up on a basis assuring greater success than ever before. It is stated by one who should know that when receivers make out their report the public will receive some valuable information. ALBUQUERQUE NEWS.

Henry J. Pinckney, who served as stewart at the White House throughout the entire Roosevelt administration, and a man who spent the greater part of his life in the service of public men, died last Wednesday night at his home at Fairmount Heights. Mr. Pinckney's latest appointment, that of messenger at the White House, came to him from President Taft, and he was numbered among the employees there at the time of his death.

BOTH FEDERALS AND INSUR- RECTOS WOUNDED IN BAT- TLE ARE BEING KILLED Washington.—Recent developments indicated to President Taft that peace in Mexico may not be a dream, and there is reason td believe the Mexican authorities will adopt a “de- finite, restrictive policy along the borders,” to prevent conflicts. Advices from Mexico show that the rebels are still active and threaten- ing at several points. There is de- cisive fighting. ‘The most important report afloat is that the rebels near Juarez had de- manded the surrender of that city. Sefior Manuel de Zamacona, the new Mexican ambassador, was _ pre- sented to the President and declara- tions of friendship were exchanged. Information was given out at the White House that the rough draft of Mexigo's formal note in reply to the State Department's demand that American border towns be not endan- gered by Mexican battles has been placed in the hands of Ambassador ‘Wilson at Mexico City. Mr. Wilson reported that the note as drafted was satisfactory and it is expected to reach the State Depart- ment in final form soon. ‘A sub-committee of the House com- mittee on foreign affairs will confer with the President and Secretary Knox on the Mexican situation. Delegate Ralph Cameron of Arizona said he had received a letter from a business man at Douglas, saying Mex- icans, both federal and insurrectos, who were wounded at Agua Prieta were “being put to death” by the vic tors. The Red Cross has no confirma: tion of this report. In a speech to the President, Seftor Zamacona said peace would be de. clared in Mexico soon. Edward A. Moseley Dead. Washington.—Edward A.

The serenity, the dignity, the society of Washington have appealed to a number of those people of wealth ‘and social prominence in New York, where the frenzy of things palls, and these have established homes in the shadow of the capitol dome. Even Boston has paid her toll in the very wealthy that have turned their back upon their native cities and come to live in Washington, for there are the Larz Andersons, the William F. Board- man’s, the Owen Scotts, the Weeks, ‘who hall from the land of the sacred cod. All corners of the nation are so represented and still they come. These people are not of the class of the millionaire of our youth who, with a fortune represented in seven figures, was the Croesus of all our end of the world, They are the many- times-a-millionaire of the twentieth century. Among these people a man with four or five millions is not rich. ‘The fortunes of the people who are revolutionizing the society of the na- eee capital range from a minimum of ten million dollars to a maximum of one hundred million dollars. There are numbers of fortunes among them that approach the latter figure—such men as Perry Belmont, the Edson Bradleys, the Thomas F. Walshes. ‘The people and all their class are mew to Washington. They are an in- novation of the last five years. Now the tendency is growing so Pronounced as to attract national at- tention. That center of wealth of the nation, Fifth avenue, is coming to realize that she has a rival in Con- necticut avenue. The people of Cin- cinnati and Chicago are lifting their yotces in protest against the siren that is alluring away the holders of their money bags. The world knows that the United States fs the nation of greatest resource and therefore of the greatest number of rapidly in- creasing fortunes. If the owners of thoge fortunes concentrate in Wash- tngton, soon that city will be acknowl- edged as the richest capital in the world, That time seems at hand. With the advent of the great for- tune in Washington there appears a new era in entertainment. The last few years have witnessed such enter- tainments as a decade ago were un- known. The very wealthy of Wash- ington are setting a pace that is some- | what typical of a frenzied time and | mation in which they live. ‘The pioneers of the millionaire col- ony here were the late Thomas F. ‘Walsh, John R. McLean, the Leiters and Mrs. A. C. Barney, Believing greatly in the future of Washington as a social capital, Mr. Walsh never | failed to further this idea by the va- riety and richness of his hospitality. His dinners were marvels of culinary and artistic skill. The John R. McLeans *re a kindred family. Their magnificent home, Friendship, popularly known as “Hon- eymoon hall,” because Admiral Dew- ey spent the first days after his mar riage there, as did Nicholas Long- worth and Alice Roosevelt, and as have many other couples, is the cen- ter of much attractiveness. Halling from Cincinnati, their residence has been a bright spot in Washington's social history. Through the marriage of Mr. Edward Beale McLean, only son of Mr. and Mrs. John R. McLean, and Miss Evelyn Walsh, only child of the Colorado millionaire, several years ago, two great fortunes were mingled. ‘There is a young heir now to the com- bined fortunes, Master Vinson Walsh McLean, known as the hundred mil- Mon dollar baby, who some day will inherit the vast wealth of his grand parents on both sides. But this title is closely contested by Mrs. Levi Z. Leiter, widow of the great Chicago merchant, who has made her home in Washington for some years and whose castle on Du- pont circle is one of the show places of the national capital. Another pioneer widow millionaire fs the ever versatile Mrs. A. C. Bar- ney, she of the statue and art fame. In the building up of Sheridan circle as the real social center of Washing- ton much is due to the clever brain of Mrs. Barney, whose nickname is that of the fairy godmother of Washington society. Mrs. Barney is the artistic type of millionaire and her home is an art marvel. ‘The type of the New York million- aire, lavish in entertainment, is best exemplified by the Edson Bradleys. ‘Their magnificent mansion on Con- necticut avenue portrays the fact that neither money nor artistic taste has been spared in either its interior or HOW THEY PAY SOCIAL DEBTS Formalities Prove Big Bugbear to Wives of Officials at National Capital. ‘That great bugbear of soctety life, “making calls,” {s more in evidence in Washington than in other places. Every woman admits that it is a bur- den, and yet every one insists on keeping up the custom, which had its beginning in pleasure, but which, through force of circumstances, has degenerated into « disagreeable duty. It seems strange that no one has yet found a means of fulfilling this part of the social obligations in a less arduous and more satisfactory way. Women in the congressional and of- ficial circles of Washington are more affected than any one else, for they are obliged to spend days in making the rounds among those persons to whom calls are due. As there are only two hours out of a day when peo- ple recelve, it means that weeks pass before one {s able to complete the task. It {s not an uncommon thingsto hear of women who have exchanged cards for years and during that time have never exchanged a word with each other, except when they hap- pened to mee: at the home of a friend, in the street or in the shops. It fs a practice among the wives of some of the higher offictals to send cards by a servant to the home of those who are not intimate friends, and though this is not altogether sat- isfactory to the recipients, it certain- ly saves the senders time and trouble. Each day of the week is set aside for one set of officialdom to receive calls. GETTING READY FOR KILLING How Admiral Leutze Dealt With Man Who Threatened to Take His Life. Stories of Rear Admiral H. H. C. Leutze, formerly commander of the navy yard at Washington, come in now and then from the New York yard, of which he is at present in charge. Not long ago some one reported to the admiral that a machinist in the shops had threatened to kill him on sight. “Shall I dismiss him?" queried the captain, after a salute. “No,” said the admiral thoughtfully, “tell him I wish to see him.” A burly, surly machinist was ush- ered into the private office. He looked a bit sheepish. “Well, my man,” said the admiral, getting up from his desk and going to meet him, “and so you have called me names and declared your intention of licking me on sight.” The machinist mumbled that he had been misquoted. “Good enough! but do you really think that you could thrash me?” in- sisted the admiral. The machinist still protested that there was some mistake, and finally Leutze cut short the interview. “Well, now, my man, go back to your work. I'm glad to make your acquaintance. I wanted to be prepared for the kill ing when {t occurs.”—Joe Mitchell Chapple, in the National Magazine. POPULAR IN SOCIAL CIRCLES ‘Wife of French Naval Attache Is Much Sought After by Soclety.

You can clean white paint with warm water, using a little whiting on the washcloth and rinsing afterward with clear water. A good way of preventing rust on kitchen fenders, after having cleaned the bright parts with fine emery cloth, is to rub them well with a plece of euet. To clean and restore the elasticity of cane bottom chairs, turn the chair and with hot water and a sponge saturate the cane work thoroughly, If the chair is dirty use soap. After- ward set the chair to dry out of doors and the seat will be taut as when ox If you wish to draw down the blind, yet leave the window open, it ts @ good plan to have a screw eye in each end of the curtain which can be fas- tened to the hooks at each end of the window sill. Unless the wind is blowing very strong this will prevent the disagreeable sound of its flapping, yet will admit plenty of fresh alr. AIR IN THIS ALWAYS FRESH Ingenious “Well” Refrigerator in Which Food Is Placed Below Open Ice Trough. One of the chief drawback of many refrigerators is that, although keep- ing everything cool, they do not al- low of the free circulation of air. Fresh air is one of the surest antt- dotes of staleness, and to be satisfac- tory the air should be continually re- newed, otherwise one article will be- come tainted by the flavor of another.

SECRETARY OF WAR DICKINSON is a Southerner who tries to square his inborn sentiments of race distinction and eternal difference with a high-minded idea of justice. In his speech before the Southern Commercial Congress at Atlanta he declared that the commercial development of the South can follow only on the suppression of mob violence. He appealed for a greater reverance and an impartial enforcement of the law as a primary step to the future greatness of the South. "There never was a time in any Southern state in the last thirty years," said he, "That a Negro could not be speedily and adequately punished for any offense, for the white people controlled absolutely the administration of the law. It does not help us to point out race prejudice and acts of violence to Negroes in the North. No respectable public sentiment justifies such violence there." Then, as a final solution of the race problem in the South, Mr. Dickinson suggested the possibility of the voluntary removal of the mass of young Negroes to a country of their own, fostered and guarded by the United States. "When they grow in wealth and education," said he, "and still find themselves confined in their aspirations by insurmountable barriers which bar their social and political progress and deny them the opportunities of citizenship open to all others, an ambition to free themselves from such conditions may, if sustained by a liberal governmental policy, lead to such a movement." There are both force and logic in these views, however prone we may be at present to combat them. BACK TO BROWNSVILLE.

We may rebel, denounce and oppose it with all our weak power and to our very last breath; we may scheme and intrigue and seek to placate it with paltry substitutes; but the thing that old Father Destiny has ordered keeps coming until if finally overwhelms us, with all of our stubborn and defiant opposition, and finally brings us to acknowledge that it is all for the best. Four years ago the black soldiers were driven out of Brownsville, Texas; under an order that practically disgraced them, and under conditions which made it seem improbable that either they or their kin would find quarters anywhere in that state; and surely not at Brownsville again during the present generation. Certainly the white people of the Brownsville district had no fear of it, and there was no thought of it in all Texas. Now comes on this Mexican insurrection, with its peculiar international conditions, and President Taft's sudden order mobilizing a large part of the regular army in Texas, along the Mexican border, with headquarters at San Antonio. A white regiment was already stationed at Brownsville, having succeeded the unfortunate Twenty-fifth at that post after the "shooting up" of the town in the summer of 1906, and there seemed no prospect nor desire on any side for anything but white soldiers there for years to come. The famous Tenth cavalry was sent to San Antonio, along with other troops. But General Destiny was on duty with the war board at Washington, with no other than a Texas congressman as his aide. The congressman from the Brownsville district, in the absence of the congressman from the San Antonio district, took it upon himself on behalf of the white people of San Antonio to visit President Taft and request that the Negro soldiers be taken away from San Antonio. The request was referred to the war department officials, who were directing the army manoeuvers. Soon an order was issued directing the commanding officer to the mobilization army in Texas to withdraw the white soldiers doing duty all along the Mexican border and replace them with the soldiers of the Tenth cavalry. The border territory includes Brownsville, and under the order the white soldiers of that garrison are to be replaced by the black fighters of the famous Tenth cavalry. The witless congressman from this district threw a boomerang when he demanded the removal of the Negro soldiers from San Antonio, for they now go direct to his own home district. Of course, he is having all kinds of epileptic fits over the unexpected outcome of his request, but the order has gone forth, and it is virtually a war order that permits of no vacillation in deference to petty local or personal prejudices. But it all happened because of the fact that it is destined that all parts of this country shall learn to accept the possibility of the presence of Negro soldiers with as much reason and acquiescence as they accept the possibility of the presence of white soldiers. There is no use fighting, opposing or raving over these conditions. They are embedded in the soil, out of which shall grow the future welfare of the country, and no temporary blight or transplanting of departmental roots will alter or change the permanent character of the military growth to which this country is destined. O EFFORT has yet been made to crystallize thought on the "ideal of a short workday." Evolution will, from time to time, make conditions which will dictate to the thoughtful and progressive mind what should constitute a rational workday. The onward trend from the condition of the worker toiling in drudgery to the more intelligent method whereby he or she may utilize his or her brain value coequal with his or her brawn value, indicates that working men and women, whether in factory, mill or commission house, who are now enjoying shorter workday than was the custom 30 years ago, are greater producers than formerly, and are doing it in a more satisfactory and intelligent way. About the time that the ten-hour workday became prevalent the workers, especially in the hardest kinds of employment, hoped to live to see the introduction of eight hours' work as a maximum of toil in the 24-hour day, and in many instances the change has not only taken place, but has proved its utility. When those yet working ten and twelve hours per day have their hours of labor reduced to the eight-hour maximum, the change will carry with it new wishes, greater desires and higher aspirations. Intelligent workmanship begets intelligent thought and vice versa. So the increased leisure time will be as intelligently applied for social and economic betterment, as will be apparent in the improved workday output of the toiler. With this new condition will come a better citizenship, a desire for a brighter home life, and in time, circumstances may make it necessary, in order to measure up to the improved civil and mental stature, to reduce the standard or recognized working day below the maximum eight hours, and it will not be surprising if the not remote future fixes the workday at six hours, but I question if for many centuries the workday will be made shorter than six hours. The recognized business hours of a number of professions are already placed at about five or six hours per day, and while in several of those professions men and women do certain kinds of work connected therewith, outside of their regular workday, the labor, mental or otherwise, is not of a regulation nature, is almost voluntary, at least to the extent of being undertaken or not undertaken in any one day, and may be termed more a labor of love than the customary task or workday allotment of labor. There should only be such reduction of the actual working hours below eight per day as to give all willing to work opportunity to supply the needs of the public, economically but wisely practiced, and such a reduc- tion can only amount to public or general good when accompanied by the intelligent betterment already referred to and which should be in proportional ratio—that is to say, the workday should only be shortened in proportion to the cultivated tastes of the public for the proper application of the so-called leisure time, because if the ratio failed morality would suffer and the necessary progress to continue anything like ideal life would be destroyed. PRESIDENT City Girl Living in Country By MRS. H. H. GENRICH So much has been written, such an abundance of sympathy offered, so many guide posts in view, all for the country girl going to the city. Not one word in case the order should be reversed—the city girl going to the country to reside. The first leaves stagnation in a sleepy village, people who have a perpetual grouch, small gossip, the church that is the standard of, not what the man or woman may be, but what their efforts are to make the populace think they are (how they succeed is quite a different argument). In short, she leaves a place where ambition and untiring energy are strangers. The other leaves all that's gay and bright, hustle and real life, streets that throng with business girls who are alive and alert—good healthy red blood racing in their veins. She is living the best she knows in the hope that some day she will be a private secretary with a salary double the amount she now receives. Her life is clean, morally, mentally, physically. She does not find it necessary to walk the streets and act coquettish and court admiration. When she walks she is in a hurry—she is going some place and she must be there at a certain time. Then again statistics claim that divorce is more common in country towns than in cities—a plausible thing, as the country girl before marriage spends the greater part of her time in visiting her acquaintances and roaming the streets. After marriage she cannot attend to household duties, so they are slighted. You see her constantly on the streets, consequently the breach widens, then separations, and divorce. Taking facts into consideration, the country girl is blessed when she enters the city gates if she has the right make of character. The city girl, on the other hand, who goes to the country to live is doomed to more loneliness, heartaches than she ever experienced on a slumming expedition. I may be able to offer a suggestion of value to those who want to sleep in fresh air, yet have no sleeping porch. We have a spare bedroom that we use for sleeping quarters, with no furniture or pictures. It is simply a big empty room except for two beds, one of a large size and a small one for the baby. We have hot water heat and keep the radiator covered with a wool blanket pinned tight around it and keep the valve open just enough to cause a free circulation, to as to keep the water from freezing. On the north we have two large French windows that are usually open and on the east a small window that is always open. This affords us much fresh air. We use the bathroom as a dressing room, as it is always warm, and we keep the door to our bedroom closed all the time, the window on the east never being closed. We have a boy two years old and he has not slept in a heated room since he was six weeks old.

In giving lessons to young ladies he would sometimes tear the music to pieces and scatter it about the floor, or even smash the furniture. Once when playing in company there was some interruption.

Turn Over a New Leaf By subscribing for THIS PAPER --- WASHINGTON GOSSIP Illinois Is Ahead in Absenteeism President Loves Innocent Jest As Breeding Ground for Alaska Lack of Horses Alarms Officers TO WASHINGTON I THINK ITS FIERCE TO HAVE TO GO TO WASHINGTON TO COLLECT ONE'S SALARY IT SHOULD BE SENT TO 'M-AN-IN-CLUDE MILAGE WASHINGTON.—Illinois still holds the national championship for long distance statesmanship in congress. The complete congressional record for the last session just issued establishes the state's claim to this distinction beyond any doubt. No other delegation even approaches the mark set by Illinois in the number of congressmen absent at all times, the number of roll calls missed by each and the total number of days each was away during the session. While none of the Illinois representatives achieved the distinction of representing his district without once appearing at the capital, there were several who outdid all former feats and approached remarkably close to this goal. Unfortunately they were handicapped by the provision of the law for the payment of mileage. A member may draw his salary of LIFE is a jest, and all things show it: I thought so once, and now I know it." sang the poet Gay; and although the president appreciates the necessity of upholding the dignity of the chief executive, still, like Oliver Cromwell, he "loves an innocent "Jest." He was to attend a fashionable bazaar held at the New Willard for sweet charity's sake, and started out accompanied by Capt. Butt and two secret service guards, Messrs. Sloan and Wheeler writes Joe Mitchell Chapple in the National. The party was cordially welcomed by the reception committee, and were about to be permitted to enter the hall when the president whimsically decided to pay his way in like the other patrons of the charity. Walking up to a desk where the tickets were on sale, he inquired: "How much are the tickets?" I'll die if THEY SEND ME TO ALASKA - IT MUST BE AWFUL COLD UP THERE An odd plan is on foot to make the Colorado mountains a sort of proving ground for agriculture in Alaska. Of course, there are a good many kinds of agriculture in Alaska that do not need proving. They are already an established success, both scientifically and commercially. Hundreds of tons of potatoes, oats and cabbage are grown and sold in the territory each year and there are a dozen other successful crops. But Alaskan nights are too cool to mature string beans and corn, for instance, and the question is whether hardy, cold-restraint varieties could not be produced by selective breeding that would give Alaskans all the fresh luxuries from their garden that the states have. There are farms in the Colorado mountains near Denver that have an elevation of nearly 10,000 feet and the conditions at this altitude in Colorado are almost identical with condi- I NEVER WAS VERY ANXIOUS TO JOIN THE ARMY - THEY SHOULD USE AUTOS ARMY officers and department of agriculture experts are uneasy over the lack of proper horses in the country for use of the cavalry and artillery in case of war. A comprehensive report on the subject has been published by the bureau of animal industry of the war department. It appears that there is much trouble in finding suitable horses for the army in time of peace, to say nothing of the demands that would be made in case of war of any magnitude. In this country now are about 23,000,000 horses. It would seem that out of this number there would be an ample number for the equipment of the cavalry and for artillery and other army uses in case of war, but in an article on breeding horses for the United States army, prepared by Capt. Casper H. Conrad of the Third cav- $7,500 a year, his $1,500 allowance for clerk hire, and $125 for stationery without coming to Washington, but it is necessary for him to appear at least once in order to receive his traveling allowance of 20 cents a mile. It is doubtful if an absolutely perfect record of nonattendance ever will be made even by one of the Illinois champions, unless this irksome requirement of the mileage provision should be modified. The generous allowance makes it a real object for a congressman to come to Washington at least once each session. Unsophisticated persons may suppose representatives who attend a session of congress only a few days of the entire period refrain, as a matter of propriety, from drawing their entire salary, or perhaps return it to the treasury. For the information of such be it stated the cashier in the office of the sergeant at arms was asked if any member of the house had not drawn his salary for the last congress or had refunded it for any reason. "Members of the house refund salary!" exclaimed the official. "Never knew it to happen, and I've been here sixteen years." "Two dollars," replied the young lady in charge sweetly. Plunging into his spacious trousers' pocket, the presidential right hand brought forth two one dollar bills, which he passed to the ticket seller, and nodding to his trio of companions, he entered the hall. "Lend me two dollars, Jack," whispered Captain Butt to Wheeler, "left my money at home." "So did I," mourned Wheeler. (The party were attired in dress suits.) "Never mind, I'll take care of you both," hastily offered Jimmie Sloan, with becoming magnanimity. The others breathed a sigh of relief as he approached the desk. "Three tickets, please," he announced calmly, producing a crisp five-dollar bill. "Another dollar, please," gently remarked the young lady at the booth. "Another dollar! H—how m—much did you say those tickets were?" demanded James. "Two dollars each." Jimmie was blushing a rosy red when Wheeler came to the rescue. A passing bell-boy was taken by the collar and a few of the morning's tips were removed from his inside pocket. Then four silver quarters were placed triumphantly upon the table, and the three passed inside. tions at 1,000 feet elevation near the arctic circle. That is the days are warm and sunshiny, but the nights are almost*cold even in summer, while the severe winters are apt to kill all but the hardest perennials. A bill was recently introduced into congress for the establishment of just such work in Colorado and also for experiments that would breed drought-resistant vegetables for the desert. The methods employed in this experimental work are exceedingly interesting. If for instance, it was decided to find a wheat that would mature in a very cold climate like that in the hill country north of the arctic circle, this is how it would be done: First, the hardiest seed of all the hardiest varieties would be obtainable from Russia, Scandinavia, Canada and Alaska. Then it would be planted in a place where it would be unlikely to mature. There might be just one stalk that, from some mysterious strain of breeding or force of circumstance, would stand unharmed by the autumn frosts. Its seed would be treasured and the next year each grain would be carefully planted and guarded so that the strain should be increased, and still further and severer tests made on it until it was so hardened that a full annual crop was assured. alry and published by the department of agriculture, doubt is expressed on the subject. The army type is said to be scarce and hard to obtain. Capt. Conrad recommends legislation by the states generally to prevent the breeding of unsound horses. lation by the states generally to prevent the breeding of unsound horses. In 1908 the government established the system of remount depots for the army. Under this system the government buys the horse young, at three to four years old, and after breaking them issues them to the troops. This system has been found preferable to purchasing the animals when matured. But what the army officers want, and also the department of agriculture, is a system of government supervision of the breeding of horses for the army. Chief George M. Rommel of the animal husbandry division of the bureau of animal industry, has devised a plan whereby from 2,000 to 2,500 well-bred animals would be available for the army every year. This would about supply the demands in time of peace. It is proposed to divide the country into four districts and to rear Morgans, thoroughbreds, standardbreds and saddlers. In time the best type would be discovered TRY THESE FRITTERS MAKE THEM QUICKLY AND FRY IN VERY HOT FAT. Two Recipes for the Batter and Half a Dozen for as Many Variet ies of the Dell- cacy. Before warm weather comes try some of the following recipes for frit- ters. These should be quickly made, thoroughly beaten and fried in very hot fat—hot enough to give off a blue smoke. Fritter Batter, No.1—Into a deep bowl put one egg, one cupful of milk, one teaspoonful of salt and one cupful of flour. Beat until smooth, but not frothy. If to be used for a sweet dish add a teaspoonful of sugar. Fritter Batter, No. 2—To the well-beaten yolks of two eggs and one-half cupful of milk, one-fourth teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of flour and one tablespoonful of melted butter. Beat until smooth, set aside for an hour or longer. When ready to use add the whites of the eggs, beaten very stiff. Apple Fritters—Pare and core four tart apples and cut in slices one-fourth inch thick crosswise. Sprinkle with two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice and powdered sugar and let stand for an hour. Drain, dip in batter No. 2 and fry a light brown, drain on brown paper, sprinkle with sugar and serve hot. Apple Fritters, No.-Make a batter like the second recipe and add one cupful of chopped apple. Drop in large spoonfuls into hot fat and fry to a light brown. Serve with maple strup or any preferred sauce. Peach or pineapple may be used instead of apples. Banana Fritters-Peel and mash fine three bananas. Mix one cupful of flour, one teaspoonful of baking powder, two tablespoonfuls of sugar and one of salt. Beat one egg light, add one-third cupful of milk and the dry ingredients, then add the bananas and one teaspoonful of lemon juice. Drop into deep boiling fat, drain and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Fruit Fritters—Almost any kind of fruit, either fresh or canned, may be used in fritters. Cut up and sprinkle with sugar, add a little grated lemon rind and let stand for two or three hours. Then drain, and if sliced, dip them in the batter before frying. If chopped fine, stir into the batter as directed for apple fritters and fry by spoonfuls. Celery Fritters—Mix one cupful of finely chopped celery with one cupful of batter and drop by tablespoonfuls into deep, hot fat. When well browned drain and sprinkle with finely chopped parsley. Clam Fritters—Chop fine two dozen small soft clams, strain their liquor into a pint bowl and add enough milk to fill the bowl. Add to the chopped clams one well-beaten egg and a salt spoonful each of salt and paprika. Mix well and add to the clam liquor and milk, then add a cupful of flour sifted with a heaping teaspoonful of baking powder. Drop by spoonfuls into deep, hot fat. Apple Croquettes. Put over the fire in a saucepan one cup of stale bread crumbs and a half cup of milk. Cook, stirring constantly until smooth, then add one large apple chopped fine and a dozen almonds, ground; the yolks of two eggs beaten with a tablespoonful of sugar, tablespoonful of lemon juice and the grated yellow rind of half a lemon. Cook until thickened, then turn out on a platter to cool. When quite cold form into croquettes, rill in fine crumbs and fry in smoking hot fat. Serve with caramel sauce, maple syrup or powdered sugar. Excellent Cookies. Eight tablespoons of sugar, six tablespoons of melted butter, four tablespoons of milk, two eggs, two teaspoons of baking powder and flour to thicken. Stir the butter into the sugar; beat the eggs lightly and add them to the butter and sugar, stirring well, and then add the milk. Sift the powder with a little flour, stir it in and add more flour, enough to admit of rolling out. Place the dough on a well floured board, roll it thin, cut the cookies out and, if liked, dip each in granulated sugar as soon as possible after being cut. Bake in a quick oven. Brussels Sprouts. Brussels sprouts will be used freely by the economical housewife while they are cheap and good. To prepare this vegetable properly the sprouts should be blanched in cold water after boiling. If this is not done they will be almost as coarse as cabbage. The ideal sauce is browned butter. It is much nicer than the cream sauce, so often used, and a great many other vegetables that are constantly being served with cream sauce would be better with browned butter or maitre d'hotel sauce. Bacon Omelet. Three eggs beaten light, one-half teaspoon baking powder mixed well with one-half cup milk, a little pepper. Add to the beaten eggs. Take four rather thin slices of bacon, and after cutting off the rind, put the bacon through a food grinder. Turn into a hot frying pan and cook it a little before adding the egg mixture. Mix it all together in the pan, then cook as any other omelet. This amount will serve three persons.

J. Edwards Lesson in a Shuttle Road Lesson in a Shuttle Road Small Boy and Noted Author Small Boy and Noted Author John W. Garrett Cited Charleston Example As Instance of the South's Former Haphazard Manner of Developing Railways. In the latter part of March of the year 1883 I spent a week or ten days in Charleston, South Carolina. On the second day after my arrival there was seated at my hotel dining room table a stranger, a new arrival, of about middle height and of powerful build, with an unusual depth of chest. The perfect balance and poise of his massive head upon his shoulders was especially noticeable. The outline of the head was round, rather than long. His face was broad; his mouth revealed great firmness, although there was in his smile a suggestion of gentleness and kindliness. His eyes, which were dark blue, were set far apart, and the breadth of his forehead indicated great intellectual power. His hair was not plentiful, although he was not bald, and in his early manhood he must have been of sandy complexion. He seemed to be a man of sixty-five years of age. "Have you come from the north?" he asked; and when I replied that I had, he asked me if I came by the coast line. I saw that he was familiar with railroad matters, and disposed to talk of them, so, I ventured to ask him how it happened that a city the size of Charleston, and a seaport at that, had no central railway station. The main station was then some two miles outside the city, and passengers were conveyed back and forth by means of a shuttle train. "Well, that shuttle train furnishes one explanation of why the Confederacy did not succeed," was the reply. Then, noting, apparently that I was wondering how a shuttle railroad two miles long could have had anything to do with the failure of the Confederacy, he continued, and his manner was that of a modest, kindly gentleman: "Do you know of any important city of the north, especially any seaport, that would have been content even in early railroad days with railroad communication that required the use of a shuttle train? This little shuttle line personifies the haphazard manner in which industry and railway development in the south in the days before the war were universally carried on, a circumstance that is easily explained by the fact that the south was then almost exclusively an agricultural region. So it came about, when the war broke out, that the Confederacy found itself with nothing more than makeshift means of communication at its command. There was not one railroad in the entire south that was worthy of the name when compared with the railroads of the north, and judged by the standards of today the northern roads of war times were poor, as a whole. Yet if there had been a railroad of northern standard running between Richmond and Lynchburg, for example, Lee could Henry C. Robinson's Proud Memory of the Time When Charles Dickens Spoke to Him in Hart- The late Henry C. Robinson of Hartford, Conn., one of the leaders of the New England bar, Republican candidate for governor of Connecticut in 1876, and prominently identified for years with the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad as counsel and director, was accustomed to say in the latter part of his life that the two incidents of his career of which he was especially proud were these—he had been a member of the famous class of 1853 at Yale, of which Andrew D. White, afterwards president of Cornell university and minister to Germany, was valedictorian, and he was one of the very few boys in the United States to whom Charles Dickens spoke on his first visit to America. "I am sure that at no other time during that visit did Dickens speak to any American boy as he spoke to me," Mr. Robinson told me. "What he said was not much, but it was Charles Dickens who said it, and he said it to me, and that was enough. "I was between eleven and twelve years of age when Dickens came to Hartford in 1842. He had been spending a day or two in Springfield, Mass., and he insisted upon making the trip from Springfield to Hartford by the little steamboat which at that time plied between the two cities upon the Connecticut river. He told his friends that he wanted to see the Connecticut, for it was one of the American rivers of which he had heard much. "We knew in Hartford the hour at which Dickens would arrive, and there was a great throng at the steamboat landing waiting to see him. I was not able to be there, for I was at school when he arrived. But I heard that he was staying at the City hotel, which at that time was the leading hostelry in the city, and was located only three or Hill's High Idea of Ethics have transported his whole army by it from Richmond, after evacuation, to Lynchburg, and it would have taken a long time to dislodge him, once he was in Lynchburg. He could have made a union there with Joe Johnston's army, then in North Carolina; he could have given Grant a great deal of trouble. But he had no good railway service at his disposal, and he fell at Appomattox. So it was elsewhere in the south—the southern commanders were greatly handicapped by lack of proper railroad facilities; they had to contend with such things as this shuttle railroad in Charleston; and so, I say, this shuttle service furnishes one explanation of the fall of the Confederacy." It was clear to me that my table mate was a railway man of experience, and my curiosity being aroused, I made inquiries at the hotel office concerning him. "Oh," said the clerk, "that is John W. Garrett, president of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad." When next I was seated with my table companion I said: "Mr. Garrett, until this afternoon I did not dream that I had been talking with the creator and builder-up of the great Baltimore and Ohio railroad system. If I had known it, I might have been a little embarrassed." "Well," replied Mr. Garrett smiling kindly, "it has always been my belief that when strangers who are upon their travels meet, it is a great deal better that they should not know anything about one another, provided they are satisfied that they have some points of common interest. For in Why He Would Not Present Case Against the Income Tax Clause of the Wilson Bill to Supreme Court. Now that David Bennett Hill, three times governor of and one term United States senator from New York, has passed away, it is possible to narrate several incidents connected with his career that have both historic importance and dramatic interest. They have remained unchroniced hitherto because of Governor Hill's policy of complete silence in all things political relating to himself, a policy that one of the staunchest friends he ever had—Judge Alton B Parker—declared recently caused much unnecessary criticism to be heaped upon its author. In 1894 the house of representatives passed the tariff bill now historically known as the Wilson bill. It contained a clause providing for the levying of an income tax without doing that in accordance with the census; that is to say, in proportion to the population of each state. Senator four minutes' walk from the old state house. So, as soon as I was out of school, I went to the hotel, determined to stand on the sidewalk in front of it until I had caught a gimpse of Charles Dickens. "I think I must have stood there about an hour—it may have been a little longer—when, looking up at one of the windows opening upon the room at the side of the main entrance of the hotel, I saw Charles Dickens standing there. I knew him instantly from the photographs I had seen of him. I was attracted by his peculiar waistcoat of very vivid color, from the pockets of which dangled a prodigious watch chain. He alternately tossed the chain in his hands and twisted it around his fingers. I also noticed his eyes, because they were very blue. After a while he put his hands into his pockets, and stood looking across the street, not noticing me at first. He looked at me steadily for I do not know how many minutes. I stared at him steadily in return. I remember that I thought: 'This is the man who told me about Sam Weller,' who was one of the great favorites of my boyhood days. "I wonder what Dickens thought of me! He certainly looked me through and through. We must have been, in fact, a spectacle, the lad and the famous author staring at each other. "At last Dickens spoke, and the words have been treasured in my memory ever since. This is what he said, and I heard him distinctly, although he spoke through the window: 'Go away, little boy, go away.' Then he waved his hand gently, smiled upon me, and with that benediction I departed. "I did not see him again until 1867, when he made his second visit to America. He had changed greatly in physical appearance, excepting that his eyes retained that brilliant blue tint, the bluest eyes I ever saw." (Copyright 1910 by E. J. Edwards. All (Copyright, 1819, by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.) that way they can meet upon common ground." Perhaps it should be added that the railroad which Mr. Garrett headed for a quarter of a century from 1858 until his death in 1884, was of the greatest service to the United States government during the Civil war in the transportation of troops and materials. And during the entire period of Mr. Garrett's presidency he was without a superior in the world of railway transportation. (Copyright, 1910, by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.) Household Debate.

Figg—That was a mighty appropriate text the parson took for poor Brassie's funeral sermon. Fogg—What was it? Figg—"He has finished his course." Hill not only regarded this clause of the income tax as unconstitutional, because the constitution provides that an income tax must be levied according to the census, but, in addition, he felt that were a tax of that kind levied and collected, the tendency would be seriously to threaten the equality of the states in their representation in their federal senate. Senator Hill therefore prepared a speech which has now gone upon record as one of the ablest of all the speeches delivered in the senate since the time of the Civil war. In this matter he stood almost alone among his Democratic associates, and the senate passed the Wilson bill, much amended, but with the original income tax clause unchanged. This was the tariff bill which President Cleveland refused to sign, characterizing it as a bill of perfidy and dishonor. After the bill had become law, it was determined to make a speedy test of the constitutionality of the income tax clause, and when those who had united to forward this important judicial proceeding consulted as to who, among the lawyers of the United States, could make the ablest argument before the Supreme court, all were of the opinion that Senator Hill was the man. The senator was therefore approached and asked, practically in these words, whether he would accept a retainer to argue the case: "Senator, we have unanimously agreed that you, better than any other lawyer of whom we have knowledge, would make a convincing argument before the Supreme court. We have therefore decided to ask you to accept a retainer simply to make that argument, and we are prepared to offer you a retainer of $5,000." For some moments the senator was silent. He seemel to be considering the proposition from all sides. At last he said: "I should greatly like to make the argument before the Supreme court. I would be willing to make it without a retainer; I regard the subject as of vital consequence. But it does not seem to me as though it would square with my view of the ethics of senatorial service if I were to accept your retainer. I made my appeal as a senator to my colleagues in the senate. I spoke with earnestness and in all sincerity. A majority of the senate, however, disagreed with me. Now, if I, having been defeated in the senate, were to make an argument before the Supreme court upon this issue, it would seem as though, having been defeated in the senate, I at once resorted to the Supreme court. No, I do not think that I would be justified in accepting this retainer, although I say again that I should greatly like to make the argument." After this refusal the party sought other counsel, who argued the case before the Supreme court, and won it. And when the opinion was read it was discovered that it practically adopted the line of argument made by Hill in the federal senate. (Copyright, 1910, by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.)

The hair comes from under this cap in soft curls or loose waves. ‘Another smart evening coiffune has a wide band of black velvet ribbon brought round the hair about the mid- dle of the head. ‘This band 1s em- broldered with detached violets in colored jewels, different shades of amethysts usually. There are also forget-me-nots in blue stones, and rogebuds in coral. Soft turban bands of gold tissue are held round the head by slides of French Jewelry. These slides are also effective when gauze folds the color of the frock are used. ‘A New Button. ‘The enameled button which has be- come so much the yogue has really reached artistic merit. It is strange how the pendulum of fashion swings around. ‘These buttons that were in such high fayor in other days haye come into their own again, and deserv- edly so, for they are infinitely more beautiful than buttons of any other de- ign, One sees them in the palest of greens and gold enamel, rimmed with cut steel pearls, silver and chased gold. A Yellow Bathroom. It was a pleasant surprise recently to find instead of the conventional blue or green bathroom a cozy room fn yel- low and brown, The woodwork was buff and on the floor was a rich brown linoleum, covered with a brown and yellow rag rug. The curtains were of ecru scrim, the bath mata pretty yel- low. Baby’s Halr Ribbons. When the hair of the wee girl be- gins to get long and curly the young mother wants it tled up in a big bow. When selecting these choose a dell- cate shade and one which 1s becom- ing or it will detract instead of add- ing to baby’s appearance. Boys’ hair should never be tled. einisaskh i ntteni Pane.
