lS on her trusty little cob paid no
-heed to the weather. so absorbed
was she In her own thoughts.
Ralph Underwood was coming that
night to ask her to be his wife. she felt
sure, for his manner at the Flctchers'
dance had been unmlstakable.
What answer should she give him:
Gould she ever love man she did not
altogether trust?
4. All, II only Jack could speak she
Knew what answer she would give II

lack never would. now. though years
ago he had shown In a hundred little
ways that he loved her.
But that was before his father died,
and Briarsmere was found to be mort.
gagged and all the affairs terribly in
yolyed. SO now Jack was poor man,
aud had even undertaken work as Cn-
derwood's agent to pay off the mort
gage, which Ralph held.
Esme was rich, and could do as she
liked with the fortune she had inner
tied from her mother. but was power
less to help Jack because of that un'
written law that "a man Is TO WOO, n
woman to be wooed.'

DEATH RECORD OF THE DAY.
n. J. Baumqartner.

Milwaukee, Dec. 3.-Henry J. Baum
gaertner, former president of the
common council and candidate for
mayor passed away suddenly Sunday
morning from an attack of heart
disease He was born in TiefenOrJ,
Germany, in 1916, and came to Mil
waukee with his parents at the age OF
six years. He was educated in the
public schools and in business was
painter and decorator. In 1899 Mr.
Baumgaertner was republican candi-
date for mayor, heading the ticket
which opposed the democratic ticket
led by Mayor David S. Rose, and after
q strenuous political battle he was
defeated. He served one term as
register of deeds in 1883 and in 1896
was again reelected to the council
and became it's president. Since the
last election he has taken little part
in civic politics, though he has been
known as one of the strenuous work
ers in Milwaukee of the party which
secured the nomination of Robert
M. LaFOllette as governor

is HELD AMERICAN
SUPREME COURT so SAYS OF
PHILIPPINE ISLANDS.
IN DIAMOND RING CASE
Government Loses Point in Collection
of Duty on Valuables Brought
From isIands-Effect of Decision
Will be to Regulate Commercial
Relations With Islands.

Washington, Dec. 3.-Opinions
were rendered in the United States
supreme court yesterday in the last
two of the insular test cases. Che
was known as the fourteen diamond
ring case, involving the relationship
of the United States to the Pnnippins
islands from a tariff point of view
and the other as the DooIey case No.
>. involving the constitutionality OF
the collection of duty on goods
shipped from New York toPOrJo Rico.
In the former case the court,
through Chief Justice Fuller, held
that the diamond rings brought in
from the PHILIPPINES and over which
the case arose should have been eN-
empt from duty under the Paris
treaty of peace, as that treaty made
the Philippines American territory.
The decision in the Philippine case
followed closely the first Porto RicaR
| case of the last term.
In the Dooley case decided yester-
| day it was held that the duty col
| lecJed on goods carried from New
York to Porto Rico was permissible
but that it was in reality a tax for
the benefit OfPorto RiCans themselves
rather than an export duty, as was
claimed by merchants who antagon-
lied the government in the case. In
both cases there were dissenting
opinions corcurred in by four of the
nine justices.
1t is generally believed that the
finding in the PHILIPPINE case will lead
to early efforts to secure Legislation
for the regulation Of our commercial
relations with those islands As the
Porto Rican union sustains the con
stitutiOnality of the Foraker act, no
such necessity will arise wI,n refer
ence to Porto Rico.

ENLARGlNG THE WHITEHOUSE.
Historic Mansion is too Small for
President Roosevelt's Family.

Washington, Dec. Another effort
will be made for the passage of "a bill
to enlarge the white house. The
overcrowded condition at the execu-
tive mansion since the Roosevelt fam
lily has taken possession has given
fresh reasons why something should
be done at once to make the white
house not only habitable, but safe.
The proposed plan is the adding of
an addition without touching or de
strOying the present building, but pro-
viding sufficient room for the presi-
dents family to live comfortably and
also give office room enough to trans
act all public business. Although many
Of the members of congress were
anxious tC pass a bill last session
| President Mckinney, whose family was
small, rather opposed any change
and it is said that even now President
Roosevelt is not favorable to a re
| building of the white house. But those
in charge of the historic building say
that it is absolutely necessary that
something be done. for the building is
! in reality unsafe.
! The other day. when Mrs ROose
welt ordered a lot of new rugs to be
sent to the house for inspection anC
the porter brought several rolls into
| the red room and threw them down t
show them off, the fall of the heav!
| rugs caused not only the flooring o
the room to shake. but the vibration
was felt all over the house.
At present the family of the presi
dent is so crowded in the private
portion of the house that it is almOs

Often of necessity occupied by a mem
Der of the family. Two rooms had t
be fitted up in the garnet for the u.s.
of the presidents servants, and
strange as it may seem, there is n
stairway or mode of reaching the at
tic except by the elevator.
A system of ladders. however, ha
been arranged so that the serv&ot
can reach their bed rooms from tn
lower floor, instead of having to go II
in the elevator.
This is only one of the incOnven
fences to which the president and hi
family are subjected by the presen
condition of the white house. TIL
plan most favored for an addition t.
the white house is the one prepare
by Colonel Theodore A. Bingham, ST
perintendert of public buildings an
grounds, which provides for additions
wings to the house, but does no
Ichnge or alter the appearance of tn
present building.
1t is estimated that $1,100,000 vii
be required for the improvements an
two years time to complete them.
