| Professor Finley Wilson was, without
doubt, one Of the most distinguished of
men.
The last time he lectured in Chicago
Teddy O'Harrihan, the youngest of all the
young reporters of the Morning Star, was

reporter went, too, and told what the

husband and got a new article out of 1t
an article which interested the ladies'.
But poor O'Harrihan, who couldn't tell a
Dinosaur from a handsaw, hadn't the
faintest idea of what the professor was
talking about He was fresh to his work,
having just been out of college a month
or two and he took his reporting seri-
ously and had a horror Of falling down.
on an assignment. He left the lecture
hall actually on the verge Of tears. (He
was young reporter.)
Then he heard some one who passed
him laughing about the lecture and the
book, and he had an idea, and sprinted
off to the public library, it being still af-
ternoon, and looked up the professors
famous monograph He found his book
catalogued: IL 1924 (ref1," and appealed
to a tall and sallow clerk.
ITS curious" said the clerk, but do
asked for before today. At the present
time, however, 1t is in use" He glanced
involuntarily at a woman who sat with
her back toward him, absorbed in her
book.
"She has it?" querier O'Harrihan ca
gerly. The clerk nodded.
O'Harrihan ventured somewhat timld-
ay toward her.
'T beg your pardon. madam" he be-
gan, and then stopped as she lifted her
head and revealed face in the most deli
cate flush of youth-a June face. Her
golden hair cleaned like an aureole
about her face beyond the saucy edge Of
her red Tam" Her blue eyes appeared
to resent the interruption.
Are you reading about Dinosaurs in
Beloochistan?" faltered Teddy.
'I am" Her tone was business-like.
I'm in a horrid fix confessed O'Harri-
han boyishly 81 ought TO have reported
Professor Wilson's lecture on that sub
ject this afternoon; but I'm blessed if
could tell what was the matter!"
1.-The matter?'
81 beg your pardon. ''I mean I couldn't
tell what he was talking about-or why
any one was listening. I have notes-a
whole pile Of 'em, but don't know what
they mean. I thought if 1 might have
the book from you for a quarter of an
hour or so I might discover the key to

"You wish me to let you take the book"
Teddy turned scarlet with embarrass-
ment.
"Why, tiff you'd be $3.50 amazingly
kind. I'm in an awful fix, you know.
Just new to the business and-and
haven't had chance to show what there
is in me, so to speak. Not that 1 think
there is much. But I want to hold down
my job, anyway"

you might take the book for a little while,
though I came way in from Englewood
to read it this afternoon, and I can't
come often"
"Bless my soulT' cried Teddy, what is
your idea?'
The girl looked blank.

why do you want to read about dino

The girl was uncommunicattve.
''You are welcome to the book for a
quarter of an hour" she said, and left
him alone with the dread volume.

MUST STAND TRIAL.
Senator Quay, His Son and Haywood
Denied Their Petition for
Writ of Certi0rari.

Philadelphia, Jan. II. = The petition
of United States Senator NJ. S. Quay,
his son Richard r. Quay, and ex-State
Treasurer Benjamin f. Haywood. for
writ of certiorari removing the trial of
the conspiracy case against them
from the local court to the supreme
court, was dismissed by the supreme
court. The case was remanded 10 the
quarter sessions court of this city for
trial and the costs of the proceedings
were placed on the petitioners.
The petition of the defendants
averred that on account of political
prejudices they were of the belief that
they could not obtain fair and impair
tial trial in the Philadelphia court of
quarter sessions when the suit against
them was instituted. The charge
against the defendants is that of con-
spiracy with John S. Hopkins, the
cashier of the Peoples bank (who COM
mitted suicide in March of last year)
in the use of state funds on deposit in
that bank. The defendants were placed
under arrest in October last and as re-
suit of preliminary hearing entered
bail for trial.

Washington, Jan. 12.-The president
has decided it to be incompatible with
the public interest to comply with the
request contained in the Hoar resolu-
ton to supply the senate with the in
structions given the American peace
commissioners. If any reasons are
given for the declination, the leading
one will be the fact that as the treaty is
subject to action in Spain, even after
ratification by the senate, its consum-
nation might be jeopardized by the

Pittsburgh, Pa, Jan IS. When the
fourth days session of the United Mine
Workers convention was called to or

and would not be ready 20 report to the
convention for several hours. A recess
was then taken until one o'clock in the
afternoon.
Prior to the resumption of the ses-.
sion sensation was sprung by the dis
covery that during the absence of the
investigating committee at breakfast,
unknown persons had entered the
committee room in the ST. Charles ho-

cen pages were torn from the ledger
and carried away, while many other
pages were blotted ard blurred. The
thief or thieves left no clew and the
announcement of the outrage caused
intense Indignation. The miners Off
Gals believe that the object of the per-
son who mutilated the books was to
destroy the records from Illinois. This
state had been gone over by the investi-
eating committee and no objections
were found to seating any of the dele
gates represented by the committee on
credentials. Another object the thief
may have had. it is claimed. was to
make it necessary to send for the cash

beginning of the present administration,
was not made upon the request of the SEN

Mr.. Harris, who goes as minister to Aus

one of the foremost members of the bar
of the state. He is a native of Indiana and
a graduate of Butler college of that state.
Mr.. Harris has devoted himself principally
to his profession and has given compare
lively little attention to politics. He has
never held office except to serve for one
term as member of the state senate. He

Judging from the talk on the outside,
the house committees give more satisfac-
ton than the senate's, for while there
is no open grumbling relative to the SEN
ate committees, there Is a good deal of
suppressed feeling which may show itself
later in the session.
Thirteen bills were added to the house
calender, and, strange as it may seem,
none of them were of reform charac-
tGr CT aimed at corporations and trusts.
1t must not be supposed, however, that
that class of measures will not come to
the front in due time.
Both branches. having their commit
tees. are now in full working order. and
if they do not feel obliged to go home to-
day to consult with their constituents
again, the week will prove an Industrious
one.
