DEMOCRATS IN LIVELY TILT MINORITY LEADER REFUSES TC DISCUSS PARTY AFFAIRS ON FLOOR OF HOUSE. ‘Washington, Dec. 12.—A lively till occurred in the house just before ad journment between Mr, Lamar (Fla.) and the minority leader, Mr. Williams, regarding committee assignments. Mr. Lamar sought to discuss the matter, but Mr. Willlams objected in the in terest of Democratic harmony, ef- fectiveness and good will. He was al once challenged to call a Democratic caucus, but declined to commit him- self on the ground that the house was no place for Democrats to wash their linen for the amusement of Repub- lcans, Mr, Lamar was taken off the com- mittee on interstate and foreign com- | merce.

SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER YEAR Doesn’t Jerk—Just Pulls. “If there is one enterprise on earth that a ‘quitter’ should leave entirely alone it is advertising. To make a success of advertising, one must be prepared to “stick to it like a barnacle on a boat’s bottom. He should know be- fore he begins it that he must spend money. Somebody muss tell him, also, that he cannot reap results commens- urate with his expenditure early in the game. “Advertising doesn’t jerk, it pulls. It begins very gent- ly at first, but the pull is steady. [t increases day by day and year by year until it exerts an irresistible power. “JOHN WANAMAKER.” The Justice of the Peace, the alderman and the Gambler. IN AN ARTICLE, signed by Justice Pendergast, Alderman Bowser received his weekly roasting through the columns of the News in its last issue. It appears that Alderman Bowser. in looking over Judge Pendergast’s report to the city council ab the last session of that body, had the timerity to ask if a certain item, appirently a fine, was not less than it should haye been, wheredpon the anger of tae Judge became kindled at what he considered an intimation that the full amount of fine posed had not been accounted for. In his article the Judge lays considerable stress on the fact that Alderman Bowser's legal education has been sadly neglec- tod, and that but for his dense ingorance of the “jurisdiction” of a Justice of the Peace he would have said nothirg; and further states that it was within his discretion to impose a iine of from one to one hundred dollars, and that having once determincd tae amount it is final, and if Alderman Bowser does not like it he can put the report in the waste-paper basket, or any other vlace he thinks suitable. The undeniable fact is that Judge Pendergast reported to the city council that the sum of $10 each had been paid in his court by two different gambling houses. Under these circumstances it seems to us that Mr, Bowser was justified in asking the learned Judge 1f such a fiLe was not inadequate. A Justice of the Peace has ro jurisdiction, where the offense of maintaining gambling instru- ments has been committed, to do anything except to give the accused a prelimisary examina- tion for the purpose of binding him over to await the action of the Grand Jury. The punish- ment for such an offense exceeds a fine 0f $100, and it is therefore beyond the jurisdiction of a Justice; ard if Judge Pendergast is laboring under the delusion that he cin grant dispensations to gamblers, 'y way of fine, im- N Tinning, Stove Repairing, Plumbing, Et Good Work on Short Notice.

WHEN Brother Carl edits the next letter for Judge Pendergast he should not again overlook the fact that the learned judge him. self lives on Nabob Ayenue and not 800 feet from Alderman Bowser.

NO TRUE BILLS RETURNED. Grand Jury’s Action Ends Lawsor. Barron Controversy. Boston, Dec, !:.—The Suffolk county grand jury has failed to return an in dictment against Thomas W. Lawson who had been held for that body by Lhe municipal court on the charge of criminal libel. The charges were pre- ferred by Clarence W. Barron, the pro- prietor of the Boston News bureau. A *no bill" was returned by the jurors The grand jury returned no indict- ment against Mr. Barron, against whom it was understood Mr. Lawson had oftered evidence before the grand jury in conmection with a criminal libel complaint. The action of the jury puts an end to the controversy between. Messrs, Lawson and Barron so far as the crim. Inal courts are concerned. Mr. Bar- ron's charges were based upon an [ rrticle referring to him published in a magazine and alleged to have heen written by Mr. Lawson. Mr. Lawson's complaint was founded on statements In Mr, Barron’s newspaper. AMOUNT TO $4,200,000.

Des Moines, Dec. 1i —The mystery surrounding the tragic death of George R. Griswold, lowa agent for the Mas. sachusetts Insurance company of ‘Warcester, Mass., has been solved by the revelation that fear of the dis- covery of his dual existence as th¢ head of two families in Des Moinet had driven him to suicide. As George R. Griswold he was main: taining a wife and four children on Ingersoll avenue, while as Arthur Stockman he supported two women in a home op Ridge street, posing as their brother. The denouement came when John Bassett, § driver, announced that Griswold and Stockman were one and the same. He told of the two women, who finally broke down and confessed. The development has caused almost a5 much sensation as did the discov- ery of Griswold's body in the Coon river a couple of months ago. Gris- wold was a leading soclety. and busi- ness man. The identity of the twao women is unknown. Both are good looking and they profess to be sis- ters. TWO OFFICERS SHOT.
