TO Cure the stammerer.

II Is said that stammerers rarely II
ever show any impediment of speech
when speaking in whispers. On this
fact a method OF treatment has been
advocated, which is as follows: For the
tlrst ten days speaking Is prohibited.
This will allow rest to the voice and
constitutes the preliminary stage Of:
treatment. During the next ten days
speaking Is permissible In the whisper
Ing voice, and In the course Of the ncr'
afteen days the ordinary cor-srsauon-
al tone may be g-:5r0lIy employed.

MONAGAS KNOWN IN NEW YORK.
Is Considered Real Military Leader
of Revolution.

New York. Jan. i.-The Venezuelan colony
in New York and many residents of Brook
Ign are taking interest in the movements Of
the filibusterinS steamer Ban RICH. owing
to the fact that General Domingo Monagas.
who was a resident of Brooklyn a few years
ago. is one of the chiefs under Senior NIatos.
General Monagas is Well known in Span
ish-American circles. He is said to be the
real leader of the operations against tn
Castro Government, owing to the fact that
Senior Matos. who supplied the money for
the Ban Righ expedition, is not a military
man. Senior Matos. however. is the execu-
tive head of the movement, and in the
event of its success will, ii is reported. i'm
mediately be declared provisional President.
General Monagas and his two sons. An
tonic and Hera!do. were passengers on the
steamer Caracas a month ago from La
Guayra, Venezuela. to San Juan, Porto
Rico. Antonio was formerly secretary OF
the Venezuelan Consulate in this city. Re
and his brother will he aides on the staff
of their father.
Their departure from Caracas was at the
time when all persons suspected of being
enemies of the Castro regime were impris-
oned by order Of Castro. The General
learned that he was on the list, and left
the country before the police had an on
portunity to arrest him.

Columbus. O. Jan. lin the Republican
| Caucuses this evening for the organization
OF the General Assembly the Hanna men
secured control of the House ard the For
aker men of the Senate. Some of the nom
nations for officials of the Senate Were
made without opposition. but there was "a
fight to Il finish for those of the House,
especially for the speakership. There was
no compromise in either case. In the Sem
ate the Senators make up the standing
committees themselves. In the House the
Speaker appoints all the committees, and
the contest was primarily for the speaker
ship. with everything else as secondary.
The Republican Senate caucus was short
and fcatureless. but the House caucus was
animated and lasted several hours.
Representative Cole. in presenting the
name OF w. 5. McKinnon of Ashtabula for
Speaker. denied that Mr.. McKinnon's cleo
ton could be construed as a humiliation of
Senator Foraker. whose reelection they all
desired.
Denounced Certain Influences.
Representative Guerin. in presenting the
name of Aaron L. Price of Athens for
Speaker. repeated the statement that Price

ators and other Republican leaders. He
denounced the outside influences" and
their threats to make ''o~ne-termers' out of
certain members.
NcKinnon was nominated over Price on
the first ballot by a vote of 3S to 50. After
McKinnon's address of acceptance Price
was called out and made the sensational
speech of the day by nominating and de-
ciaring himself for Hanna for reelection
to the Senate two years hence. Price said

vote of 43 to %. The Foraker representa-
tives made their last hard stand for Spell
man. The other nominations were made
without much opposition.
Hanna Loses in the senate.
In the Republican Senate caucus most of
the time was devoted to the selection of a
committee To apportion the standing COM
mittees. F. b. Archer. the Foraker candi-
date, was nominated for President pro tenn

SAID DEVIL Was AT
CHRISTMAS TREE.
Strained Relations Result From
Criticism Of Festivities at ii
Holiness Meeting.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

-1A DIN ~ I'tAbL
Macon, Mo, Jan. 4.-The people of College
Mound, in the southwest corner of Macon
County. and the location of famous NIcGce
College, are still torn up over the charge
made that the devil in L, rson was present
at Christmas tree festivities held at the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
The charge was made in the course of a
holiness meeting held in the chapel of Nc
Gee College. which is now controlled by the
Holiness denomination.
The meeting in the chapel was held at
the time that a hundred children and as
many more grown folks were attending the
Christmas tree celebration. The festivities
were severely criticised as ungodly. and as
being IAN emaaation from Beelzebub." One
of the good sisters opined in serious tones
that the old fellow with horns and forked
tail was In all probability III person at the
Christmas tree.
There has been a somewhat heated con-
troversy over the matter. and the relations
between the two churches have become
strained.
w. Z. Beisher, a prominent member of
the Holiness Church. said that his people
found no particular fault with Christmas
trees in private homes or in halls, but TO
have festivities of the sort in a building
devoted to the worship of God was not far
short of sacrilege.
Another objection the Holiness Church
has to entertainments is that they ..fritter
money away that could be employed to
more advantageous purposes"
