West Virginia argus. [volume] (Kingwood, W. Va.) 1877-1946, 1902-01-09

The extent to which the sentiment
in favor of further consideration of
the merits of the Panama canal
route is growing quite remarkable
and it is by no means likely that
either the Morgan or the Hepburn
bill will pass the Senate without an
extensive and comprehensive dis
cussion of the merits Of the Panama
route. There is no partisan divis
ion on the subject and opinions are
being formed regardless Of party
afiliation. While there is no ten
dency to underestimate the efforts
of the Walker Commission to arrive
at correct discussion, it is believed
that the price of SIo9, 900, 900,
which the French company placed
on their property, was sufficient in
itself TO warrant the Commission in
its adverse recommendation and
now that it seems probable that the
plant can be bought for $40, 900, 900,
many members believe that it should
receive further consideration

The second faction belives in
some notifications of the House
Philippine tariff bill because they
consider that such concessions will
further the efforts of General Chat
fee and the Taft Commission. They
are in favor of granting some meas
ure of reciprocity to Cuba, notwith-
standing the protests of Mr.. Ok
nard and the Establishments of the
beet sugar lobby. They are, to
slight extent, believers in the policy
of President Mckinley laid down at
Buffalo. But even they are not
prepared to go to the extent to in
sure Cuban prosperity that is advo-
Gated by the President.
/ / I
If third faction develops it will
be in support of the Presidents
views in regard to Cuban reciproc-
ity, but still more to sustain MIR
Roosevelt in the stand he has take
in regard to the Schley controversy
and his efforts to uphold Secretary
Long. There are many members
of Congress who believe that the
President has been guilty of "bad
politics" in not needing the wishes
OF the people in this matter and it is
anticipated that when those Con
gressmen who have spent the holt
days in their districts return to
Washington the sentiment will take
the definite form. Any effort to
probe the affairs of the Navy. De
partment will be bitterly opposed
by the President who we'll knows
that were Congressional investiea-
ton undertaken, nothing could save
from ignominious defeat the Secre
tary of the Navy and the entire
clique which has so assiduously
prosecuted Admiral Schley. Mr..
Roosevelt will be supported in both
House and Senate by his personal
friends and by number of Con
gressmen who believe that such a
course will put them in a position to
influence large share of Presiden-
tial patronage.

will vote with the Democrats for his

After dwelling at some length on this
question DR. Arnold raised another. DO

After giving statistics regarding this
second question DR.. Arnold said:
i'As 10 why college graduates do not
marry some say they are too old after
leaving college To attract marrying men,
Others that they are too wise to be willing
To follow their creators plan and still
others say that men do not like wives VINO

believe that the college graduate who can
write lectures upon mental philosophy
and knows nothing about infants food
will by and by. be thing or the past.
She believed that study OF the deNei.
opment and training of children should
form a part OF the curriculum OF every

urged "a return to the old colonial home

How to Eoonomize With Eggs.

The leftover whites of eggs may be made
into macaroons. kisses, or used for mer-

quarter of pound OF sugar and the same
quantity OF almond paste will make two

are wanted IL is much better TO break the

WHAT THE MATINEE GIRL

SAME w TIL THEM.

/ don't know when I have enjoyed a

rible weakness that hate to confess, but
do love TO see pretty dresses. No mat
ter how pretty an artistic may be. half
the charm Is gone 10 me if she doesn't
wear beautiful gowns That is why l en-
joyed the bill this week so much. have
never seen so many handsome gowns in
one program, and il is really hard to say
which was the prettiest. Take Miss Ray
Bailey. for instance. She is an awfully
pretty young lady with a wealth of beau
tiful golden hair, glorious eyes and a dar-
ling little mouth. but she evidently real
ICES the advantage Of being well dressed
for she wears two of the most beautiful
gowns that have graced the Keith stage
this season.
One was what should call violet
gown, being made milky white satin
background, with gorgeous big yiolets In
velvet almost completely covering It, II
is elaborately trimmed with magnificent
lace, which really filled me with envy. IL
is the kind OF lace that brtathes OF old,
old family herooms. TheN dress is cut
decollete. and across the top of the bod
ice is a quantity of beautiful satin vio-
let's, which runs down the back of the
gown 10 the founce of violet chiffon at
the bottom of the skirt. IL Is certainly a
magnificent gown, and seems TO match
Miss Baileys eyes splendidly. Hereafter,
l shall always think OF her as MY Violet
Girl She wore another stunning gown
which is really quite beyond my powers OF
description.
1t was all fine white net, covered with
little groups OF three silver sequins, and
elaborately trimmed with the softest OF
chiffon. while the waist ls trimmed with
more beautiful lace of another delicious
pattern and with little groupes of an odd
color blue sequin The effect OF this
gown is very stunning IL Is said that
Miss Bailey wears two entirely different
gowns every day. Just think of that.
Enough to make one go' to every per-
formance, isn't It.
Then there is the dainty little woman
with the wondrously sweet voice, Miss
Lottie Moore. who is big local favorite.
and who also appreciates the value of
dressing well ] remember two seasons
ago, when Miss Moore with Mr.. Bellmsn.
first appeared In Providence with such
great success, ! thought her gowns then
were lovely and they certainly made the
whole town talk, but the new ones she in
wearing this season are more gorgeous
than ever. One is an exquisite creation
which would do credit TO the great Worth
himself. II Is a delicate rose pink, cover
ed with magnificent American beauty
roses which appear to be handpainted,
but are richly embossed upon the silk
background. The roses upon the wais;
are made 80 as TO form the entire bodice,
