CONGRESS IN SESSION.
In the Senate.
After agreeing to the conference report
on the river and harbor bill the Senate
on the Oth took up the sundry civil ap
propriation. but adjourned without con
cluding its consideration. The provision
eliminating the House restriction on the
use of funds for prosecutions under the
anti-trust lav., so as to make them inap
plicable to peaceful combinations, wage
earners, etc., was the subject of criti
cism. but ultimately accepted. An
amendment appropriating SIOO,OOO to
permit the President to investigate the
various executive departments of the
government with a view to better
economy was adopted.
In connection with the sundry civil hill
the Senate on the 10th listened to a re
vival of the tariff discussion of last ses
sion. Senator Beveridge being the prin
cipal speaker. The Indiana senator
spoke in advocacy of the provision of jhe
bill authorizing the expenditure of $250.-
OTK to aid in procuring information look
ing to the proper administration of the
tariff law. He referred to this legisla
tion as the first step toward the tariff
commission. Senator Hale declared Mr.
Beveridge’s purpose to be the destruc
tion of the present tariff law.
The Senate on the 13th listened to
a notable address by Senator liolliver
of lowa in the form of a vigorous de
fense of the “insurgent” Republican and
a reply to the criticisms of them by the
President of the United States. The
sundry civil bill, carrying appropriations
aggregating $118.0(K>,600, was passed by
the Senate. Bills amending the bank
ruptcy law and requiring land-grant rail
roads to survey their lands so as to ren
der them amenable to taxation were
passed.
The conference report on the railroad
bill was presented to the Senate on the
14th. The Senate divides] us attention
between the public land withdrawal bill
and Senator Owens’ motion discharging
the committee on privileges and elections
from the further consideration of the
resolution providing for the election
of United States senators by dTect vote
of the people. Action was taken upon
neither of these measures. Speeches
against the administration’s conserva
tion policy were made by Senator
Hughes of Colorado and Heyburn of
Idaho.
The public land withdrawal bill was
passed by the Senate on the 15th after
a debate upon that measure which cov
ered the entire session. Just before ad
journment the statehood biH was laid be
fore the Senate as the unfinished busi
ness. The land bill was so amended as
to provide for the issuance of $80,000,000
wortii of certificates of indebtedness with
which to complete irrigation projects al
ready in course of construction.
In the Hous*.
By the overwhelming vote of 195 to
101 the House on the 9th passed the pos
tal savings bank bill. Twenty-four Dem
ocrats joined the Republicans in voting
for the final passage of the bill. The
Democratic substitute for the bill of the
majority was rejected. 118 to 196.
By a vote of 48 to 71 the House on the
10th declined to recede from its disagree
ment from the Senate amendment appro
priating for the expenses of an automo
bile for Speaker Cannon, the same ac
tion being pursued in the case of the al
lowance proposed by the Senate for Vice
President Sherman’s automobile. All
other amendments of the legislative bill
were agreed to. The partial conference
report, on the naval bill was agreed to.
The House accepted the proposal of the
Senate to build one battleship in a gov
ernment navy yard and a $1,000,000 col
lier on the Pacific coast. The report ol
the conferees on the rivers and harbors
bill was agreed to. the total appopria
tions and authorizations being $51,947,-
718.
The entire session of the House on
the 18th was devoted to political speech
es delivered during the period permitted
for general debate upon the deficiency
bill. Representative Nye of Minnesota
spoke on optimism and patriotism as
powerful factors in the nation at larae,
referring to the functions of party orga
nizations in the government of the coun
try. Representative Leever of South
Carolina advocated legislation to prevent
fictitious dealings in future sales of cot
ton. A defense of Attorney (leneral
Wickcrsham in his attitude toward the
Philippine friar lands was made by Mr.
Crumpackcr of Indiana.
The House on the 14th also received
the conference report on the railroad
bill, but the greater part of the day
was devoted to political speeches. Rep
resentative Randell of Texas created a
sensation by moving that the House re
call from the comittee on the judiciary
a bill to prohibit senators, representa
tives and judges from accepting gifts,
compensation, etc., from railroad, tele
graph and other similar corporations on
the ground that Representative Parker
of New Jersey, chairman, and other
members of the committee were accept
ing such gifts, and by so doing were
disqualified from action on such a meas
ure. Mr. Randell, seeking action on his
motion as privileged. met opposition
and the speaker sustained a point of or
der which prevented action upon it.
This action was upheld by the House.
121 to 20.
The bill providing for new civil gov
ernment for Porto Rico was passed by
the House on the 15th. This measure
is planned to rake the place of the For
aker act, under which the island is now
governed, and provides for a more repre
sentative government than is adminis
tered under the present law.

FARMERS REFUSE TO LEAVE HOMES
EBENSBURG, Pa., June 16.-A fif
teen-car circus train of the Prank A.
Robbins shows was wrecked one mile
from here early today on the Cahibria
and Cresson branch of the Pennsylvania
railroad.
Two lions, an elephant, one leojjard,

Confusion Is Terrifying.
In the darkness of the early norning
the confusion following the derailment
of the menagerie cars was terrifying.
The howls of the wild animalsj which
fied in every direction, was mingled with
cries of the injured men, pinnedl under
the wreckage. At the time of t&e acci
dent the train was making better than
twenty miles an hour on a down grade.
The engineer stated that he threw on
his emergency brakes when he felt the
first shock of the cars against the bridge
girders. His act probably many
lives.
Search for Animals.
The entire country for miles around is
in a state of terror. Many of, the farm
ers and their families refused to leave
their homes and take up the for
the liberated menagerie beasts. Circus
employes are beating the woods, hauling
temporary cages with them, in an ef
fort to corral the animals.
A special train sent from here with
physicians and nurses, assisted in the
care of the injured. Two of the circus
employes may die.

WASHINGTON. D. C.. June 16.-
Both San Francisco and New Orleans
must raise $7,500,000 before they can
hope to receive government endorsement
for their expeditions in celebration of
the completion of the Panama canal.
The House committee on foreign affairs
today decided not to invite foreign na

were complied with.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 16. —A five
acre farm will be dropped from the sky
when the aeroplane flight across from

Skin Live Snakes.
The demand for snake skins is said far
to exceed the supply. A company has
been formed in Batavia by tlm Dr*-*;
and English capitalists under the title
of the "Java Rept-le Skin company"
for the exploitation of this commodity
in the Dutch Indies. This company jf
fers only two to five cents for dead
snakes, but up to a dollar for live ones,
the reason being that it is difficult to skm
•i dead snake, the skin often being
spoiled in the process. On the other
hand, the live reptile may be deprived
of its skin with ease, and this cruel oper
ation is of frequent occurrence. The
snake is fastened by the neck to a tree,
and while one man pulls it out straight
by the tail another makes a cut around
the neck and strips the skin completely
off. The skinned snake is not killed at
once by the operation, but continues to
live for more than an hour afterward.
DOLLIVER SRYS HE
FIGHTS FOR PARTY
)ENIES DISLOYALTY IN ADDRESS
ON FLOOR OF THE SENATE
CHAMBER.
REPLIES FOR THE INSURGENTS.
Contends That There Is No Longer That
Freedom of Conscience That Made
Republicans Strong.
TARIFF LAW CAUSES ARGUMENT.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 13.
“When it is said that I fight against the
Republican party 1 deny it; 1 fight for
the party.”
This was the keynote of Senator Dol
liver’s speech in the Senate today in con
tinuation of the debate in connection
with the sundry civil appropriation of
£250,000 to enable the President to col
lect information concerning the operation
jf the present tariff law.
The speech was the reply of “Insur
gent” senators to the charges of party
lisloyalty. Frequent reference was made
o tiie President’s name and speeches.
Jr. Dolliver declared there was no long
:r any freedom of conscience such as had
>nce made the Republican party strong.
Telling how he had supported President
Taft’s candidacy, Mr. Dolliver added:
Not His Dream.
“I never dreamed that within a little
nore than a year 1 would be called
ipon to defend myself and the little
jroup of men with whom 1 stand against
:he charge of taking seriously the Dres
den t’s speeches and the party’s platform
pledges.”
"The President is in error,” said Mr.
Dolliver. "It is not necessary for men
-o swallow every tariff bill that is set
before them and it will be difficult to
?et me out on such a charge. 1 share
the universal disgust of making a great
executive department the headquarters
;>f the awkward squad of politics.”
He said the Republican platform did
not promise downward revision of the
tariff, but that if it had the promise
eould easily have been kept by reducing
articles protected by patents or con
trolled by an international trust.
Might Be Defended.
“Then the tariff hill could have been
defended plausibly,” said Mr. Dolliver,
“just as it was at Winona, when the
President presented a grotesque table of
reductions prepared by a paymaster in
the army.”
During his speech Mr. Dolliver re
ferred to the “two great hoaxes of the
past year,” the discovery of the North
pole by Dr. Cook, and the revision of the
Tariff downward by Senator Aldrich. This
sally was greeted with general laughter.

Apple Raising Most Profitable.
The apple is the king of fruits. It is
used in more different ways than any
other food, and is the only fruit that one
can enjoy every day in the year. The
apple-tree, moreover, is the hardiest of
fruit trees, and in a region like the Paci
fic Northwest thrives and bears apples
without care of any kind, but with cul
tivation and scientific direction the pro
duction is sure and very large.
The Pacific Northwest contains the
only territory now being sucessfully
planted to apple trees. Moreover, in
this favored land the productive area is
confined to a few small protected val
leys, and only a part of each, the bench
or tableland, is adapted to fruit-raising.
In a word, the market for good
apples is hopelessly undersupplied,
and the prices are tending to increase
rather than decrease, especially for the
fancy product of the North Pacific val
leys, where 90 per cent of the apples of
all good varieties are fancy.
The Irrigated Apple Lands In These
Protected Valleys ore admittedly the
Most Valuable Productive Lands in the
World. Net profits of from SSOO to
SIOOO per acre in a single year are the
authentic records of scores of orchards
In the best districts, and the price for
well-bearing, mature orchards is prac
tically prohibitive. Sales have been made
for more than S3OOO per acre for or
chards not yet in bearing. It is signifi
cant that no land whatsoever in these re
markable fruit regions has ever de
teriorated in value, but has doubled and
quadrupled and is still advancing with
the developing civilization. These prece
dents also apply to orchards being plant
ed at the present time.

TEX RICKARD
WILL WAIT FOR
COURT'S ORDER
PROMOTER OF JEFFRIES-JOHNSON
MATCH PREPARED TO MOVE
TO ANOTHER STATE.
STOP KAUFMAN-LANGFORD BOUT
Injunction in This Matter Will Be First
Gun in War Declared on Prize
Fighting.
ARENA WORK ORDERED TO CEASE.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., June 16.
With a motion for a permanent injunc
tion against the Jeffries-Johnson fight
and an application for temporary re
straining order against the Kaufman-
Langford contest to be filed in the supe
rior court here tomorrow morning At
torney General Webb will fire the first
legal gun in the war declared on prize
fighting in this state by Gov. Gillett.
To Move Battleground.
When informed of the intention of the
attorney general today, Tex Rickard said
that immediately on an adverse decision
of the court he would remove the scene
of the battleground to some ether state.
He also stated that with the handing
down of an unfavorable decision he
would commence a civil action against
the governor and the attorney general to
recover damages for the expense he has
alrady undergone to prepare for the fight
here. Rickard was in consultation today
with Attorney W. H. Netzon in regard
to the proposed civil suit.
Attorney General Webb stated today
that on account of proximity in time of
the Kaufman-Langford contest which is
scheduled for next Saturday, he will ask
for a temporary restraining order against
that fight as the court will hardly have
time to hear arguments for a permanent
injunction against it.
Can Continue Operations.
As the big match does not occur until
July 4 the attorney general does not
see" the necessity for similar action and
the motion will be made for a permanent
restraining order, which in the meantime
will not prevent the promoters from con
tinuing with their preparations for the
match.
It is hardly likely, however, that Rick
ard and Gleason will avail themselves of
this privilege for they have ordered all
work on the arena to cease.
May Go to Nevada.
That the various promoters are pre
paring to shift the big fight as well as
other proposed contests to Nevada, was
made manifest this morning when it
was learned that Billy McCarny had
been dispatched to Reno with instruc
tions to procure permits for the holding
of two matches in that place. It was
stated definitely by Joseph Woodman,
manager of Sam Langford, that one of
the permits was for the purpose of bring
ing off the Langford- Ketchel battle on
July 2, in the event of an adverse ac
tion by the California authorities.
Rickard to Await Order.
The second permit, Woodman stated,
would be to hold the Jeffries-Johnson
fight two days later. Rickard, however,
said today that no steps had been taken
by him toward transferring the scene of
the fight. He repeated his previous
declaration that he would wait until the
matter was definitely settled as regards
San Francisco.
Gov. Gillett arrived today to preside
over a mass meeting of the Panama Pa
cific exposition which is to be held this
afternoon. He declared that he did not
care what opposition he encountered he
proposed to carry out a clearly defined
law and stop the big fight. He was told
that the hotelmen and others of this city
proposed to deluge him with protest's
against his action.
“I expected that,” he said, “but no
matter how great the number of protests
I will not rescind ray order. I will brook
no opposition, no matter wdiat its course.”
Answers Rickard’s Threat.
Told of Rickard’s plan to sue him.
Gov. Gillett said:
“If Tex Rickard is looking for a fight
with me, he will get a bigger one than
he has advertised for July 4.”
Of the statement made by Mayor Mc-
Carthy of San Francisco in 'Chicago
which criticised the governor’s interven
tion against the fight, the state’s execu
tive refused to talk. He finally said,
however, that he probably would issue
a formal reply later in the day.

Structure to Contain 4000
Square Feet of Surface.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 16.
[Special.]—Senator Stephenson today se
cured passage through the Senate of a
bill appropriating $62,500 for the pur
chase of a site and erection of a public
building at Delavan. It is estimated by
the treasury department a site can be

4000 square feet ground area. The struc

and thereby he excited a dog in the con

SOME CONCESSIONS.
MEETING LATE IN DAY TO DECIDE
THE QUESTION.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 16.
The projected fight on the rules, which
was expected to occur in the House next

ability of reporting a rule based on that
proposed by Minority Leader Clark, was
freely discussed, the committee ad

TRYING SLANDER SUIT,
Chicago Court Hears $50,000 Case Involv
ing Woman and Methodist
Episcopal Pastors.
CHICAGO, 111., June 16. —A slander
suit involving the names of Methodist
Episcopal clergymen was begun in Judge
Mangen’s couyt here today, the com
plainant being Mrs. Mary Lavender who
seeks $50,000 damages from the Rev.
John B. Crawford, pastor of the Wood
lawn Methodist Episcopal church.
Unusual interest attaches to the case
for the reason that the jury may have
to consider whether a protestant pastor
should hold inviolate any confession of
a parishioner.
Mrs, Lavender, a devout member, is
said by Rev. Crawford to have made a
confidant of him with reference to her
relations with another minister of the
Methodist faith. Rev. John D. Leek.
According to Rev. Crawford, he felt
honor bound to relate what he had heard
with reference to Leek to Bishop Mc-
Dowell, Later the story became public
and thereafter Rev. Crawford spoke
with considerable freedom to newspaper
reporters. Mrs. Lavender alleges that
he distorted the facts. Rev. Leek re
signed from the Chicago conference.

THE BUSINESS GIRL.
Hints That Will Enable Her to Win
Her Way.
Girls desiring to enter upon a business
career must impress upon their minds
the fact that an employer appreciates
women who can seize his ideas and fol
! low them out without asking a thousand
and one questions. They must not think
that because they are g.rls an employer
should be more considerate toward them
and their shortcomings than he would
be toward those of a man.
Then, agam, some girls are apt to be
oversensitive when they first enter an
office, store or warehouse, and consider
that every little thing done well is de
serving of praise from their employers.
Perhaps it may be, but in five cases out
of six the employer has no time to praise
his assistant. If a girl knows and be
lieves she is doing her very best, even
in the smallest detail, she will have the
reward of a quiet conscience, and a
kindly employer will not forget a word
of encouragement voluntarily from time
to time.
A girl should take every opportunity
of improving her talents. She should
not be afraid of doing a little extra work,
or think that she was doing more than
her share when her employer asks her
to do a little “overtime,” Nothing is
lost by it in the long run. Too many
women are “penny wise and pound
foolish,” forgetting that whatever fur
thers the interests of the house that em
ploys them will eventually further their
own, provided, of course, they are indus
trious, energetic and faithful.
Success is a plant which requires con
stant care of oneself and one’s work if
it is to flourish, and the girl -who will
succeed in all phases of life is undoubt
edly the one who knows herself and her
capabilities, and has the tact and faculty
to use that knowledge to the best ad
vantage.
