Gloves.

There is great paucity of inven-
tion liz the matter of gloves for trav-
cling. 1t is best to have kind that
gives freedom to the fingers. Too
hard and too thick gloves are most
distressing, and too thin suede rub
out at the fingers; perhaps it is on
this account that people are tolerat-
ing the idea OF thread gloves, but
neither thread, cotton, nor silk is
likely TO be admitted In polite socie-
ty.

Leaves Soon for Capitol

Chippewa Herald: Congress-
man Jenkins informs us that he
expects to be in Washington a
week from today, to be on the
ground early before the opening
of the Fifty eighth congress.
Mr.. Jenkins looks forward to a
hard session with plenty of work.
He is of the opinion that an extra
session will be called to revise
the tariff schedules, although he
is opposed to it--and wisely.
Mr.. Jenkins believes that the
moment the revision begins,
there is no telling where it will
end. The Herald is of the same
opinion and believes that it is ad-
visable to let well enough alone.
Never has the country been in
such prosperous condition as it
is at the present time. It is an
undisputed fact that the tariff is
a local issue. AS soon as Con-
gress begins to tinker with the
tariffiit will be found thatsectional
demands will turn congress into
a tinker shop, SO to speak. The
present tariff schedules needs
revision only in a very few cases
and as these stand now they are
of but little consequence. We
think the position Mr.. Jenkins
takes in the matter of tariff and
trusts is statesman like and
worthy of emulation by his col
leagues. We understand that
Mrs. Jenkins will accompany
her husband to the national
capital city.

still unconscious. After all possible
had been done for her there it was
decided to remove her to the hos
pital, but she died before half the
distance had been covered.
On q table beside tie bed was
found an empty bottle which had
contained carbolic acid. The con
tents Of the stomach also betrayed
an odor Of the acid, and apparently
that poison had been the cause of
her death. Mrs. Mcdonald had
either taken it through accident or
design. The bottle was clearly
marked "poison,' but the dead wo-
mans friends believe that the taking
of the acid was the result of an acct
dent.
Mr.. Mcdonald was distracted by
the death of his wife and believed
that her death was the result of a
fatal mistake on her part. If the
deed was Intentional, it is supposed
that brooding over i'll health was
the cause of it.
Mrs. Mcdonald leaves 4-year-old
child.

Takes Dose of Poison.

West Superior, Nov. 17.-Mrs.
Dan Mcdonald, of 1918 Tower
avenue, died yerterday afternoon in
the ambulance, while being taken to
the hospital, as the result of dose
of carbolic acid. Mrs. Mcdonald
was the wife of Dan Mcdonald a
former saloonkeeper of Iron River,
who moved to this city about three
weeks ago.
The tragedy occurred yesterday
afternoon, shortly after 2 o'clock.
Mrs. Mcdonald has been in poor
health for some time. Her husband
went across the street to estaur-
ant to secure some toast and tea
for her. He came back as quickly
as possible and was not gone much

THE people of Wisconsin could
have taken very lively interest
IN the Speakership of Congress
had Mr.. Babcock remained a
candidate, but with no one from
the state aspiring to the position
there will likely be very little
concern felt over the matter.
The Wisconsin delegation per-
Horned a very neat coupe when
they met for the apparent pur-
pose of endorsing Babcock, and
then threw into line for Uncle
Joe Cannon, of Illinoise. The
west will center upon Cannon
and ne will undoubtedly succeed
Mr.. Henderson as Speaker.
The result of the conference
of the Wisconsin delegation
caused great surprise. Mr..
Babcock stated to the members
that he never had been a candi-
date that the report had gone
without his consent, and that his
reason for wanting the endorse
ment was to show the world that
he could get the backing of his
home state delegation.
The action is taken to mean
that he can have anything he
wants in the next congress.
Mr.. Cannon election as speak
er is regarded as certain now.
The following telegram was
sent to Mr.. Cannon:
The Wisconsin delegation,
after rendering it's unanimous
support to Hon. J. w. Babcock
for speaker, and upon his declina-
ton, gives you it's solid ten votes
for speaker of the ty-eighth

ing and the members of the Cab
met are diligently engaged in
preparing their annual reports.
Whether due to the personal
influence of President Roosevelt,
or to the ''high pressure" spirit
of the times, there is undeniably
an unusual energy exhibited in
the executive departments of
the government and as a result a
large amount of preliminary
work will have b cen concluded
and number of important mat
tiers will be ready for the action
Of Congress when that body con-
venes. Seer etary Hay has prac-
tically completed the treaty with
Colum bia, paving the wayfo tie
Panama Canal and it will be sign.
ed within a week. It's consider.
alton and ratification will be the
first business to demand the at.
tention of the Senate. Substan-
tial progress is being made on
the reciprocal treaty with Cuba
and an earnest effort will be made
to complete it during the remain
ing fortnight. The Pacific Cable,
which the Commercial Cable
Company is supposed to be lay
ing, is not progressing with the
smoothness that was anticipated
and it is regarded as likely that
the matter will again come up for
Congressional action OF some sort.
The President has practically
completed his message and is at
present enjoying a brief respite
from official duties, preparatory
to the exhaustive work which al
ways accompanies a short session
of Congress. Of course the
message will be kept secret un-
til forwarded to Congress, never
theless, it is possible to make
some intelligent predictions in
regard to it's purport. The most
interesting features will be those
clauses which deal with the tariff
and the trusts. On both sub
jects Mr.. Roosevelt. will express
himself conservatively, but he
will urge the adoption of a law in
accordance with the policy out
lined at Pittsburg by the Attor-
ney General and which it is be-
lieved would enable the Depart
ment of Justice to institute legal
proceedings against any corpora
ton SO operated as to restrict
trade and destroy competition,
regardless of the purpose for
which it was incorporated.
While recomm ending the institu-
ton of a permanent tariff COM
mission, the President will
especially urge that such reduc-
ton of the schedules as may
seem d desirable be accomplished
by means Of reciprocal treaties
with large consumers of Ameri-
can products.
The republicans now have
everything their own way in both
houses of Congress. The Presi-

EVIDENTLY Sir Thomas Upton
enjoys his popularity with the
American people and is deter
mined to further it if possible.
He has written Gen. Corbin that
he has had an interview with
King Edward and has deeply in
terested the King in the ST. Louis
exposition. AS a result, the
King has indicated that he will
appoint a special commission to
visit St Louis and it is regarded
as probable that the commission
will be headed by the Prince of
Wales. The details of the
arrangement are now being dis
cussed by Ambassador Choate
and the British Foreign office.
