The impression was strong at the White
House that the peace treaty would be rati-
fed without question when the vote was
taken this afternoon. The developments in
the past forty-eight hours had been such, it
was felt, as to compel even opponents of
expansion, so-called, TO withdraw from op-
position to ratification. defeat of the
treaty, it was believed, would be resented
by the whole American people, no matter
what views they might hold on expansion.

ELKINS HIDES OUT.
Is Keeping Clear of the Legislative
Middle IN His State

Charleston. w. Va, Jan. 14.-Every-
thing is at a standstill in the West Vir-
ginia legislature owing to the failure
of the house to complete its organiza-
ton which is due to the contest over
seats. The Republican senate is waiting
on the Democratic house and iris Sald
it will likely unSeat three Democratlc
senators if the Democratic house I'M
seats Viva and Brohart, the Republicans
whose seats are contested. The election
of the three senators mentioned was
certified by the secretary of state ana
there is contest involved If they
are unSeated it is conceded that II Will
be as a retaliation
Once the unSeating process begins
there is no telling where it will end,
as the Democrats can do as they please
in the house and the Republicans in the
senate. The prospect of an earlier cleo
ton of a senator is not bright New
candidates are springing up and a dead
lock seems probable owing to the d.
vision among the numerous candidates
In the meantime Senator Elkins is keep
ing out of the struggle by remaining
Democratic aspirant, expects to hold the
balance of power and dictate the nom
nation it is said The latest rumor is
that there is to be a combination be-
tween Commissioner Scott and Cover
nor Atkinson, whereby the latter is to
throw his strength to the former in re-
turn for support for appointment on
the federal bench. Another rumor is
that Senator Elkins and others at
in behalf of Internal Revenue Commits
sioner N. B. Scott.
All the other Republican senatorial
candidates are still in the field.

a dozen together. I was able to secure
a snap shot, but did not succeed in the
time exposure, as the pigmies would not
stand still. Then tried to measure
them and found not one over four feet
in height. All were fully developed, the
women somewhat slighter than the men.
l was amazed at their Sturdiness. The
men have long boards reaching half
way down the chest. They are very
timid and will not look stranger in
the face, their be2dlike eyes shifting
constantly. They are, it struck me,
fairly intelligent. 1 had a long talk
with a chief who conversed intelligent
~ about their customs in the forest and
the number of the tribesmen. Both men
and women, except for a tiny strip of
bark, were quite nude. The men were
armed with poisoned arrows. The chief
told me the tribes were nomadic and
never slept two nights in the same
place. They just huddIe together in
hastily thrown up huts. Memories of
white traveller. Mr.. Stanley of course
who crossed the forest years ago, still
linger among them" Mr.. Lloyd then
proceeded through the cannibal coun-
tries to the coast. He found the canni-
balls warlike and fierce but open and
straight forward and had no difficulty
with them. At one place he put togeth-
er a bicycle he had with him and rode
about their village. A remarkable scene
followed, thousands of cannibalS, men,
women and children turning out, dane
ing and yelling at what they described
as "a European riding a SNAKE"

NEW WOMEN's HOTEL.
Plans For a New York Novelty Are
Progressing.

New York, Jan. 14-P1ans for the
women's hotel are steadily progressing,
and it's projectors now announce, through
Charles D. Kellogg, acting secretary,
that this will be the pioneer building OF
several of the same class. Mr.. kellogg
stated that the war had delayed the
plans of the projectors of the hotel, but
that they would now be carried out.
1t is the intention to cater to the
needs of the professional and business
women and give them the same COM
forts and convenience that a man ex-
poets and exacts. The hotel is by no
means a philanthropy. 1t will be an in
vestment paying per cent dividends
and the rates will be in accordance.
Seven dollars a week will secure a
room. The suites will be supplied with
individual baths, while each floor will
be equipped with ample bathing facili-
ties for general use. The hotel will ac-
commodate 500, and the restaurant will
offer a table d'hote as well as meals
la carte.
Minor rules and regulations formerly
included in the prospectus have been
done away with, and the "house moth =
err counselor and chaperone), the OBJ
jectionable feature of the list of Off
GERS has been stricken but. The COM
pany will start with 81 000, 900 capital.

THE MERCHANTS POWER.
" Advertising the Greatest Known
Force in Selling Goods"

OF course farmers don't like to take
advice. Lots of city people don't like to
swallow it, but they ought to do so just
the same, digest it and aSSimi1ate it into
their systems. J.. Logan Jones in his
excellent address before the state board
or agriculture Friday evening-duly re-
ported in another portion of this issue
gave some splendid advice to merchants
as well as to farmers. advertising"
said Mr.. Jones, lis the greatest known
force in selling goods" That terse
statement comes from a man who is
one of the biggest advertisers in the
west. He takes whole pages, half pages
and quarter pages and some times even
two pages in the newspapers and he has
built up one of the most remarkable
businesses in the country. Mr.. Jones
believes just what he says and the most
important thing he has to do is the
prompt, regular and systematic pre-
doesn't make any difference to him how
busy he is, how many customers are
thronging his store, his ads take pre-
cedence over everything else. If he
hasn't time to do what he would like to
do, he takes the time to attend to his
advertising. Other things may wait
leisure, but the advertisements must be
attended to first.
Topeka has some enterpriSing adVer-
tisers who believe as Mr.. Jones does,
but there are others would rather delay
an advertisement than to miss a sale.
but by failing to give prompt and early
attention to the careful preparation of
their advertisements, miss scores of
sales.
When the reader of this item wishes
to see the practical effect of judicious
advertising in other towns, even strong
er than he may see it in Topeka, let him
call at the Jones Dry Goods company,
Sixth and Main, Kansas City, Mo. The
store speaks for itself and Mr.. Jones,
who is quite we'll known in Topeka, will
give pointers to city people as he did
here to the farmers. Before coming to
Topeka he prepared a page advertise
ment which appeared IN the leading
Kansas City evening paper Friday and
no doubt is filling his store with buyers
today.

ENCOURAGING.
Otis Cables That He is Master
of the Situation.

Washington, Jan. 14.-The war depart
ment officials were very much encour-
aged today on the receipt of news from
General Otis at Manila that indicated a
distinct Improvement in the situat ton
there. The generals dispatch completely
negatives the absurd story from Madrid
that the troops at Manila have mutinied
and refuse to proceed to Iloilo, necessitat-
ing the withdrawal of General Miller's
force from that port.
General Otis is master wherever he has
planted his foot and undoubtedly is able
to carry out any policy as TO the treat
ment of the natives the administration is
that encourage the officials here to
believe that the conciliatory policy to-
ward the natives that was recently adopt
ed will succeed, although it cannot be ex-
pected that the Fflipinos will be convinced
a. once of the absolute faith in which
General Otis is acting toward them.

sion until it is decided whether or not

such warrants now ON hand to be re-
ceipted for.
