- URGE CONTINUANCE OF SLUSH INQUIRY . Senate Democrats, in Con- ference, Unanimous for Keeping Up Probes. By the Associated Press Democrats of the Senate in confer- yesterday were unanimous in the n that investigations into possi- recent senatorial elec- “tion resulted from the » of the Senate, by reason of its ebrated filibuster, formally t contin life of the funds committee, but, of course, can have no specific bearing upon the course of that, a bi-partisan commit- ator Reed, Democrat, Missouri, the committee chairman, and his colleagues have decided to proceed under the Robinson resolution with the seizure of additional ballot boxes used In the senatorial election in Penngylvania last November, but beyorid that it has not gone. Scope to Be Decided. Whether its work will be extended beyond the mere “taking and preserv- ing” of evidence in the Pennsylvania case probably will be determined at 1e meeting tentatively arranged for March 25. Members of the committee are known, however, to hold the view that it can function under the orig: inal ‘resolution creating it, as well as under the Robinson resolution direct ing the seizing of the ballot boxes, which. was adopted after formal no- tice had been filed with the Senate of a contest by William B. Wilson, Democrat, who was defeated in the senatorial contest by William S. Vare. The effort to take possession of the ballot boxes in Luzerne, Delaware, Lackawanna and Schuylkill Counties may result in the question of the com Imittee’s authority being thrown inté the courts. The contest brought by Wilson was filed with the regular elections com- mittee by the Senate just before ad- journment yesterday and in its in- Quiry that committee unquestionably will seek to obtain the ballots, since Wilson claims he failed to be credited with many cast for him. Reed Sees Difficulty. Senator Reed, Republican, Pennsyl- wvania, who led the long filibuster against continuing the campaign funds committee, said this naturally THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Texas Panhandle Father, Weds 26-Year-Old Bride on 91st Birthday By the Associated Press. CLARENDON, Tex., March 5.— Col. Charles Goodnight, ploneer land owner and known as the “father of the Texas Panhandle,” celebrated his 91st birthday today by taking a 26- vear-old_bride. _ Col: Goodnight and Miss Corrine Goodnight, pretty telegraph operator from Butte, Mont., were married here today close by the great cattle ranch which has made the name Goodnight famous in these parts. Though of the same name, the two were not related. A year ago, following the death of his first wife, the ranchman settled down to live in his ranch house. One day he received a letter from Miss Goodnight, who had read a his- tory of his life on the plains. Other letters followed, and several months later the colonel agked Miss Good- night to visit him. ‘Since her arrival she has been his constant companion. Cok Goodnight is perhaps the most picturesque cowman living in _the Southwest. He settled in the Pan- handle in 1876, when this section was a_deserted plain. During the Civil War he patroled the Mexican bor- der and after the war blazed cattle tralls through the Southwest. would be known by the officers having custody of the county ballot boxes and they might well decline to de- liver them to the Reed committee. The Pennsylvania Senator reiterated his doubt of the authority of the Reed gommittee to' open the more than 8,000 ballot boxes already brought here from Philadelphia and Pitts- burgh, calling attention that the Sen- ate merely gave the committee au- thority to “preserve” the ballots. There were indications that the question of the authority of the com- mittee to open the boxes probably would be tested in the courts, although none of those having direct interest in the case rhade a statement in that connection. Subpoenas to Be Issued. Subpoenas for use by the Senate sergeant-at-arms in making demand for the.county boxes probably will be issued -this week. Another suggestion which came out of the day's discussion.at the Capitol regarding the probability of the Reed committee functioning through the Summer was that it would be unable to obtain funds for its work. While the committee has a large unexpended balance to its credit, its vouchers must be countersigned by the chairman of the audit committee, of which SenatorgKeyes of New Hamp- shire, a RepuMlican, is chairman. Should this committee withhold ap- roval of vouchers, funds could not obtained for traveling or other ex- penses of the investigating committee. An Indian Effigy Jar. An earthern efigy jar, in the shape ©of an animal said by the Hopi Indians to represent an antelope, was one of the mest curious objects unearthed yecently near Flagstaff, Ariz., by Dr. J. Walter Fewkes, ethnologist of the Smithsonian Institution. It was found buried on the abdomen of an Indian priest. The surface of the jar was elabor- ately decorated and was undoubtedly used for religious purposes, Dr. Fewkes sald, and probably as a con. tainer for holy water or sacred meal. A “splendid collection of pottery, num. hering 300 unbroken vessels, as well as many curious fragments, was ob- tained from the site of an ancient Indian cemetery near the pueblo. He also gathered rings, bracelets, tur- quoise shells and other ornaments. AP e Special massage and rouge for the | ears is the latest phase of London | feminine beauty culture, A LOADS en New York.

By the Associated Press. JERUSALEM, March 5.—Dr. Alex- ander Goldstein, prominent Zionist leader, has begun a tour of remote Jewrles, some of which have never be- fore recelved a Zionist emissary. Bombay and Calcutta, where there are about 10,000 Jews, will be visited first, and from there Dr. Goldstein will journey to the widely scattered com- munitfes of Rangoon, Singapore, Java, Sumatra, Australia, New Zealand, Ja- pan and China. Perhaps the most interesting fea- ture of the trip is Dr. Goldstein's con- templated visit to the white “Jerusa- lem Jews™ and the Black Bene Israel of Cochin, India. The former group, numbering about 10,000, claim that their ancestors came te India immedi- ately after the destruction of Solo- mon’s Temple. A still more exotic group are the 20,000 Bene Israel, who are belleved to be descendants of Hindu converts to Judaism or of mixed marriages between Jews and Hindus. Both the white and the black Jews of Cochin, who speak native dialects, are devoutly observant of the reli- gious traditions.

By the Associated Press. PARI§, March 5.—Good taste, ele- gance ofhd social traditions have found three defenders in this age of the strange, the queer, and odd and the “modern.” “The Club of Three” is the or- ganized knight-errant. It is headed by Andre de Fouquieres, usually con- sidered ‘the soclal arbiter of Paris. He also dictates men's fashions. If Monsieur de Fouquieres should inad- vertently appear wearing his trousers inside out or with a new kind of hat, the young bloods would feel im- pelled to do the same. The dance is the first problem con- fronting the new group. Some of its eminent exponents, on the stage and in the ballroom, are to show the evo- lutions of terpischore from the classic to the Charleston. Soclety is walting to learn whether the show will result in thumbs down on the American step or whether it will merely show how the dance ought to be danced. The two “associates of de Fou- quieres in the social enterprise are the Count of Carlemont and Roger J. Lacer. The latter, not being a titled gentleman, is the administrator and will do the work of arranging the public sessions of the club. 12th St. N.E.
