WANTED—Everybody to patronize HOUSE T0 VOTE ON WEEKS BILL Conservation Measure to Be Disposed Of, IS NATIONAL IN SCOPE Measure Has Been In Congress for Years and Provides for Co-Operation of States in the Movement—Scott Anti-Option Bill Also to Come Up for Action Before the End of the Present Congress. Washington, June 16.—At a session of the rules committee of the house it was decided to permit the house of representatives to consider the Scott anti-option and the Weeks forest reserve bill, relating especially to the establishment of an Appalachian for- est reserve before this session comes to un end. The committee determined to allow one day each for the cen- sideration of these measures under a rule permitting four hours of general debate, to be followed by the usual roll calls on each bill. The Appalachian forest reserve bill, which is a sweeping conservation measure, has been in congress for years. Its author is Representative Weeks of Massachusetts, chairman of the committee on postotlices and post- roads. The bill was reported from the agri- cultural committee by Representative Lever (Dem., S. C.) and a minority report against the bill was submitted by Chairman Scott of that committee and six other members. Il Is National in Scope. The Dbill is national in scope and provides that states may co-operate in the protection of watersheds of navi- gable streams and names a national forest reservation commission com- posed of the secretary of war, secre- tary of the interior, secretary of agri- culture, two senators and two mem- bers of the house. Its proponents have in mind particularly the South- ern Appalachian and White Mountain region for a forest reserve. The bill would appropriate 31,000,000 for the coming fiscal year and $2,000,000 annually thereafter for five years, for the purchase of forested lands om the headwaters of navigable streams. The Scott bill has the support of the Southern and Western members from the cotton and grain-growing districts. It is designed especially to prevent dealing in future options in cotton, but s the entering wedge to similar leg- islation against boards of trade, pro- vided the conduct of such boards fails in the future to meet with the ap. proval of the grain growers. Senate leaders say that the passage of the statehood bill by the senate at the present session is assured, . Wisconsin Celery Crop Damaged. Milwaukee, June 16.—The Wiscon- 8in celery crop is three-fourths ruined. A Milwaukee firm, who are the heav- lest raisers in Wisconsin, announced that their crop was spoiled by the frost and the dry weather which fol- lowed and that their efforts to fill their orders from the celery farms of other Wisconsin producers disclosed that all the larger celery raisers are sufferers. Carroll Before Grand Jury. Des Moines, June 16.—Governor B. F. Carroll was called before the Polk county grand jury to tell what he knew of the alleged conduct of John Cowine, former chairman of the state board of control, toward girls at the Mitchellville Industrial school. It is expected that the grand jury will re- port next week. Scarlet Fever Kills Many. ‘Wausau, Wis.,, June 16.—Marathon county has a widespread epidemic of scarlet fever. The disease got a foot- hold in Wausau and Edgar in the ear- ly spring, since which time many deaths have occurred in both the city and county. Since then the average of deaths has been one in every two days. MORRIS SHEPPARD. Texas Congressman Favors Aero- planes or Airships Yor Mails. CARRY MAILS BY AIR LINE Experiment Provided for in House Resolution. Washington, June 16.—The earrying of United States mail by airship or aeroplane may be the next step in aerial navigation. Representative Sheppard of Texas has introduced a resolution “author- jzing and directing the postmaster general to investigate the practicabil- ity and cost of an aeroplane or air- ship mail route between the city of ‘Washington and some other point or points suitable for experiment.” TAFT AT COLLEGE JUBILEE President Attends Exercises at Mariet- B ta, O. Marietta, O., June 16.—As warm a welcome as was ever received by the nation’s executive was extended to President Taft when he arrived in Marietta to attend the diamond jubi- lee celebration of the seventy-fifth an- niversary of Marietta college. The arrival of his special train was the signal for an official salute of twenty-one guns, while an official re- ception committee of 2,000 school- children carrying flags and flowers ex- tended the greetings of the city. At 2 o'clock he delivered an address in Muskingum park. Following this he spoke at the college exercises in the famous old “Two Horned Church” the Frst Congregational. An automobile ride to various points of historical value completed his visit and he returned to Washington at 5 o’clock. WITH CONSENT OF HIS WIFE Finds Georgia Man - Was Killed by Physician. Bwainsboro, Ga., June 16—The ex- citement occasioned by the myste- rious death ten days ago of Fred Flanders, a merchant, was greatly in- creased by the announcement of the verdict.of the coroner’s jury, in which the charge is made that Flanders died from “arsenic poisoning administered by Dr. McNaughton and with the knowledge and consent of Mrs, Flan- ders. Feeling is such it is feared that mob violence will be attempted if Me- Naughton is brought back here any time soon. Coroner Want Bryan in the Senate. Lincoln, Neb., June 16.—A concerted movement looking to the entry of W. J. Bryan in the Nebraska senatorial race was begun when Democratic lead- ers of the state prepared for the cir- culation of petitions in every county of the state asking Mr. Bryan to en- ter the contest. Mr. Bryan is now in Europe. Killed by Infuriated Bull.

Cologne, June 16.—Stories of death and the sufferings of the survivors are brought by refugees from the flooded valley of the Ahr. The waters are rapidly subsiding, but while at their height they wrought frightful damage. Several villages on the banks of the River Ahr are washed away.

The Artful Passenger. “Here, you,” sald the conductor an- grily, “you rang up a fare. Do that again and I'll put you off.” The small man standing jammed in the middle of the car promptly rang up another fare. Thereupon the con- ductor projected him through the crowd and to the edge of the platform. “Thanks,” said the little man. *I didn't see any other way to get out. Here's your -diwme.” — Philadelphia Ledger. CAPTAIN BALDWIN.

Como, Italy, June 16.—The authori- ties are convinced that Porter Charl- ton, the husband of Mary Scott Castle Charlton, sailed for New York on either the ltalian Steam Navigation company’s steamer Verona, which left Genoa for New York on June 8, or the Italian Lloyd steamer Virginia, sailed from Genoa on June 9. have sent wireless messages to the vessels requesting their cop £ not to permit any passengers co:re- sponding to the description of Churl- ton to escape without thorough in:ves- tigation.

BUYS TAGS FOR STRAY DC3S Physician’s Love for Canines Will Cost Him $2,000. Phoenix, Ariz, June 16.—Dr. O. L. Mahoney of Arizona has undertaken to provide collars and license tags for every canine impounded by Phoenix dog catchers.

BEEF PRICES ARE SLASHED Wholesalers Reduce One-half Cent on Rounds and Chucks. Chicago, June 16.—The first change made in dressed beef prices in three weeks by wholesalers went into ef- fect Wednesday, and it was a reduc- tion of half a cent a pound. ‘What added particular significance to the reduction announced was the fact that it affected only the cheaper cuts of dressed beef, bringing No. 3 rounds to 8% cents and No. 1 chucks to 9% cents, as contrasted with9 and 10 cents, respectively, before the de- cline was enforced. These are the cuts on which an increase had been predicted. Governor's Wife in Runaway.

They were Kentuckians, ke himself. He fell asleep and when he awoke found them discussing his chances in the coming campaign. “What did Harry Clay go into poll. | tles for?’ sald ome. ‘““He had a good bit of land; he had a keen eye for stock. If he had stuck to stock raising he’'d have been worth his fifty thou- sand. But now he doesn’t own a dol- lar.” “And,” the great Kentuckian used to add, “the worst of it was, every word of it was true!” It was characteristic of the man that at the next stopping place he hurried away and took another coach lest his eritics should recognize him and be mortified at their unintentional rude- ness. Impertinent Lady Holland. In “A Family Chronicle,” a book of gosslp, I8 a story about the fearful and wonderfu! Lady Holland which is comparatively unhackneyed. She was at Lord Radnor’s, and they could not get rid of ‘her. Lord Radnor thought of unroofing the house, but| trled first what prayers of a Sunday evening would do. She was highly pleased (very graclous, Lady Morley sald, because she knew they longed to get rid of her) and said she would go down for prayers. Whether she was {ll I do not know, but it seems she had to be carried downstairs and wrapped herself up In cloaks, etc. In the midst she called out for more cloaks, which were brought her. When she went up to the drawing room again she said to Lord Radnor (he hav- ing finished with the Lord’s Prayer): “I liked that very much, that last prayer you read. 1 approve of it. It Is a very nice one. . Pray, whose is it?” Did any one every hear such a thing? I cannot imagine why people should bear her impertinence, Elght Points of the Law. A correspondent signing himself “So- and-so” overheard some men—‘'evi- dently lawyers,” he says—talking over a case recently when some such ex- pression as this reached his ears: “Well, he couldn’t help winning. He had the eight points of the law in his favor.” Bver since he heard this*“So-and-so” has been wondering what were the eight points referred to, and he asks me if I can enlighten him on the sub- Ject. The eight points of the law, “So-and- #80,” are these: First, a good cause; second, a good purse; third, an honest and skillful solicitor; fourth, good evl- dence; fifth, able counsel; sixth, an up- right judge; seventh, an intelligent jury; eighth, good luck. It is well understood in forensic cir- cles that {f you have all these in your favor you stand a sporting chance of winning your case. But, on the other hand, of course you may lose.—London Standard. Bonaparte as a Deadhead. Frederic Febvre publishes in the Parls Gaulois an interesting docu- ment preserved In the archives of the Theatre Francals. It-runs as follows: “Pass the citizen Bonaparte to this evening’s performance of ‘Manjus.’— Talma.” This shows, of course, that the Em- peror Napoleon when he was only a lieutenant of artillery was very glad of “orders” for the theater. M. Febvre ndds a story which he heard from Tal- ma's son to the effect that the future ruler of France used to lie in wait for the tragedian In the gallerles of the Palals Royal and that the tragedian used often to whisper to his compan- lon: “The other way, if you don't mind. I see Bonaparte coming, and T'm afrald he'll ask me for seats.” Evidence Against Him. “I am proud to say,” sald the man with the loud voice, “that 1 have never made a serious mistake in my life.” “But you are mistaken,” said the mild mannered man with the scholarly stoop. “You have made one very seri- ous mistake.” S “1'd like to know where you get your authority for saying so.” “Your declaration s evidence that you have never tried to see yourself as others see you.”—Exchange.
