Soap in General.

A great variety Of soaps, toilet,
bath, kitchen. Not all Of them the
best, perhaps, but none of them bad.
You want everyone of them, some
body does, or we should not keep
them.
There is no difficulty in being adj
vised what soap to buy, if you want
advice; no difficulty in getting the
soap you want if you know what it is.
Many of these soaps are made es-
pecially for us.

paper, press work, etc, when he was
stopped by Mr. Wheeler, of Houghton
Miflin Il Co, who indignantly retorted that
the speaker did not know what he was talk
ing about.
In closing his remarks Mr.. Crafts ac-
cused the American News Company OF be-
ing monopoly, and said it had got an un-
usual privilege in the existing law through
a subterfuge that permitted it to use the
mails at pound rates and denied il to pub
fishers.
This statement brought Mr.. Patrick Far
elley, manager of the American News Com
pany, to his feet with a vigorous protest.
He denied that there had been any subter-
fuge; on the contrary, he urged that a pro-
vision be inserted in the bill giving pub
lishers equal privileges of sending and hav-
ing their publications returned from deal
ers through the mails. The news Company
was not monopoly, as Mr.. Crafts had
said. He was talking on a subject about
which he knew nothing and Mr.. Farelley
asserted that such statements made before
a committee was improper and an act of in.
justice.
Mr.. Vernon, of Vernon Bros & Co., of
New York, denied Mr.. Crafts statement
that the great majority of novels were OF
the French order. The books were made in
this country.
Tie statement of W. H. (Coinl Harvey,
Of Chicago, brought out some humorous ref
ences to the recent campaign and a dis
QUESTION on economic questions. As
practical business ,prnr--sdon 1T would
not be denied, he saiS that the consumer
got the benefit OF all redSctions iii postage
Mr.. Harvey spoke Of cheap postage as be-
ing large factor in the education Of the
people. They were able to study economic
questions in which they were interested.
He referred TO the circulation OF 800 900
copies Of a book recently written by him
self, circulation that possibly could not
have been attained with higher postage
He warned the committee that we We're
entering upon times that threatened the
life of the country.

HE DECLARED HE Is INSANE
Eli Horne Wanted the Police to
Send Him to st. Elizabeth's.
His Mother Says He Is Incor rigible
and Lazy, and should Be Made
TO Work.

St. EhZabeth's." was the startling an
nouncemcnt made by Eli Horne, a ged TWEEN
tytwo, to Sergt. kauelIer at police head
quarters last night. Horne also said that
he had horrible paintn his side which was
killing him. s-a!
Sergt. Kaucher sent the man to the Sixth
precinct, where he was placed in a o::ll Until
he can be examined by the police surgeons
as to his sanity. The police, however, do
not place much credence in Horne's self
accusation OF insanity. They say that his
ailment is the one described asa total dis
inclination to all kinds OF work" Several
times before, they say, ne has bothered the
police with tales about his lunacy, and has
claimed to be afraid that he would harm
himself He also has been patient at the
Emergency Hospital, where he was treated
for an imaginary ailmeRt OF the lungs.
The doctors, however, could not find any
thing the matter with him, and he was in
variably discharged.
The facts OF the cas- bear out the police
theory Of laZinesS. Last Thursday Horne
was sent away from Bay View Hospital,
Baltimore, where he had been a patient for
about a week. He imm ediately came here,
and last night tried TO bully his mGther, a
hard-working widow, who conducts little
shop at No. 49 II street northeast, into
giving him some money.
She, however, said that she had all she
could do Co support her six other children,
and told him he was old enough to look
out for himself.
Then ne asked her to have him placed in
a home or some institution where he would
be taken care Of When she refused he told
her he would 10 something to disgrace her.
She said today that he has always been
iDcorrigibly lazy, and the most ef-
feCtive cure she could propose for his
insanity would be for the judge to give
him a good term on the farm, where he
would have to work.
Police Surgeon Hickling is not satisfied
that Eli Horne is demented, and today he
declined to sign an insanity certificate in
his case.
DR.. Hckling will consult with Horne's
relatives before taking further action. In
the meantime the tailor will be held at
No. 6 police station.

A subcommittee OF the Senate Committee
on Postoffices and Post Roads had an in
teresting hearing this morning on the Loud
postal bill, which, among other things
raises very materially the rate of postage
on serial publications. A delegation from
Maine against the bill, under a misunder-
standing that the committee W would not
meet today, left the city, but Will be heard
at another time.
Among those who appeared today were
Charles 7. Root OF the Textile Publishing
Company, New York; Ernest I. Eilert,
president OF the Luther League of America;
Alexander ]. Wedderburn of the National
InteIligencer, Mr.. Orr of the Agricultural
Press League, Mr. Wheeler of Houghton,
Mifflin 4 Co., publisher, and Wilber f.
Crofts OF the Reform Bureau, who was
against the bill, and declared that he rep
resented the people.
Mr.. wheeler, as the representative of a
publishing house, read paper against the
bill. he contendcd that these books were
reprints OF standard works, or original pro-
ducuons of high order, and that only since
the law had been passed giving them access
to the mails at low rates had the general
public been able TO secure literature OF a
high class.
It would, MI Wheeler said, be a serious
blow to education, if the provisions of the
present law were repealed. The best way
to cure the evil was TO enforce the existing
law against bogus papers which cucumber
the mails.
The Farmers Interests.
Mr.. wedderburn opposed the bill because
it was against the interests of the farmer,
who was not able 20 get good literature
without the aid Of the mails.
Senator Stewart, who viii address the
committee later, stopped long enough to
say that the accounts at the Postoffice De-
partment were kept in such shape that no
information could be had there. He would
show this to the committee later on, for he
believed that much more information was
needed before an intelligent bill could be
framed.
wilber F. Crafts declared the existing
postal laws were nothing but socialism
for the rich and granted large subsi dies to
certain industries, compelling the people
to pay the bill" The existing law was, he
said. special legislation in behalf OF the
city of Augusta, Me.
He was sorry to see Senator Hale and
Representative Milhken championing the
cause OF the Augusta publishers, and in
tmated that they did so solely because
they were Maine industries. The present
law also encouraged fraud So far as the
literature was concerned, it consisted chief
ly of novels, Of which so per cent were
pirated foreign novels, large majority OF
which were French works.
In response TO a question by Senator Hill
Mr. Crafts said it would be impossible for
Congress to draw bill that would exclude
certain classes Of matter and admit others
This was denied by Senators Hill and Bur-
rows. and after some quibbling Mr.. Crafts
modified his statement and said he
would be glad to see such a law "if it
could be drawn"

KEEP "OLD GLORY" SACRED.
Representative Linton Wants the
Flag saved From Advertisers.


Congressman Linton has introduced a
bill to prevent the desecration of the
American flag. The measure provides:
THAT the national flag or the coat OF
arms of the United States, or any imita-
ton or representation thereof, shall not
be attached to or imprinted or represented
upon any goods, wares, merchandise, or
any advertisement of the same. And no
advertisement shall be attached to the
national flag or the coat of arms Of the
United states, or imprinted thereon. Any
violation of the act is made punishable,
on conviction, 10y fine of $50 for each
offense.' Many efforts have been made
at various times to pass a bill similar TO
that proposed by Mfr. Linton, but they have
all failed. he says that 'Old Glory"
should not be used for advertisements.
