Woman Physician Says the Country
 Is Full of Them.
 At the afternoon session of the sev- enth annual convention of the New York State Assembly of Mothers, which was recently opened in Syracuse, in the midst of raging storm, 500 moth CTS were in. their places to hear Mrs. Mara l.. Pratt Chadwick, M. D., of New York, author of histories and sto- ries for children, tell them plain truths concerning motherhood, says the New York World.
 Mrs. Chadwick figuratiyely placed a child on the dissecting table. There were the tooth cutting period, the grow ing tall period, the growing stout pe- riod, the memory period and the periods of imitation, imagination and reason. Bringing him up through childhood to adolescence, Dr. Chadwick said, was a great task, "but,'' she went on, "the adolescent period is the time upon which all the future depends. Amer lea is country full of invalids The real splendid healthy woman is almost extinct"
 In her annual address Mrs. David o. Mears, president of the New York State Assembly of Mothers, said that the chief extension of the work had been the introduction of child study department in the 400 granges in the state, thereby reaching the mothers of the country districts. The assembly now aims, she said, to get into closer, relations with the public schools and is working to that end.

CREAToRE.

Some lively buying is looked for to- morrow morning when seats will be placed on sale for Oreatore's band concert Sunday evening at Poli's. Un- der ordinary circumstances the mere mention of Creatore's coming would be sufficient to arouse interest, but an additional feature is added this time because of the great bandmaster's pur- pose to answer his local critic with a program and concert such as Water bury music lovers have never been regaled with. On tlnis account the de mand for seats will be unusually large, and prudent people will secure them as much as possible tomorrow. Prices are g, B. 30. 75 cents and $1.

4rHB KING OF DETECTIVES.


 Theodore Kremers intensely sensa- tional melodrama ''The King of De tectives" will be played at Polls this evening, likewise tomorrow after noon and evening. The play is one of tremendously exciting incidents. one of the most thrilling being the rep resentatfon of a fight for life in the clouds, the participants using an old- fashioned balloon of the spherical shape. and a modern, up-to-date air ship, built upon the exact lines Of those upon which the Brazilian aero naut built his latest flying wonder. The machine used in the play is in perfect working order, and rises by its own power at each performance. As an aid to the realism of the scene the drops are so arranged that, as the air ship rises, the city seems to fall away until the ship is seen flying through hay clouds. while the occupants play out their thrilling scene. Prices are 25, 35 and 50 cents. and for to-mor- rows matinee 15 and 25.

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Pat
terson on Friday introduced resolu-
ton instructing the judiciary commit
tee to make an investigation in regard
to the recent action OF the governor of
Colorado in establishing military rule
in Teller county. He asked that 1t lie
upon the table in order that he might
make some remarks upon it at a con-
venient time The resolution is, in
part, as follows:
Whereas BY reason Of the fact that
there is a strike of the metalliferous
miners in the Cripple Creek mining
district, In the county of Teller. and
also in the county OF San Miguel, in
said state; and,
Whereas, 1t is maintained by the
said striking miners and by many other
good and law-abiding citizens that said
strike, considering Its magnitude and
duration, has been exceptionally free
from violence and intimidation; and.
Whereas, The governor of said state
did on the 4th day of December, 1908,
by reason of said strike and OF the said
explosion and other alleged disturb
ances in said district, issue n procla-
nation In which, among other things.
he did declare the said county Of Teller
to be in state of insurrection and re-
bellion; and,
Whereas. Following the said proc
lamation. the military authorities did,
by and with the approval of the gov
ernor of the state, establish n censor
ship over the newspapers printed in
said Cripple Creek district, and did. and
yet does. prohibit criticism or news not
favorable to the military in possession
of said district and to the mine owners
side OF the strike in progress in said
district, and have prohibited the pub
lication Of editorials In said papers that
were fair and lawful criticisms of the
acts OF the governor and of the mill
tary In their dealings with said dis
trict; and
Whereas, The military authorities
of the state of Colorado, by and with
the knowledge and consent, II not the
direct order, of said governor, have pro-
claimed and are enforcing martial law
in said county, and acting hereunder
have seized possession of its jails and

Washington, Dec. 15.-Secretary

"Sir-l enclose letter from Briga-
der General Tasker II. Bliss, asking at
tention to the report of his recent tes-
timony before your committee as a
witness regarding certain objections to
the confirmation of General Wood. 1t
appears that the press reports of Gen
eral Bliss testimony are the precise
contrary of what he in fact testified.
He wished to set this right for his own
reputation and | shall take the liberty
Of doing so as far as practicable by Civ
ing his letter to the press.
Eat the same time | wish to call the
attention of the committee to the fact
that some persons have been persist

Of the testimony taken before you, the
evidence being in every case to the
prejudice of General Wood. 1t cannot
be doubted that the newspapers pub
fishing these reports believe them to be
true and that the reports are sent to
them by the representatives of the
press in good faith, under the same be-
lief 1t is evident that some person

CONVENTION TO BE
HELD IN CHICAGO

Washington, Dec. 13.-The Republic
can national convention will be held in
Chicago June 21st next. The Republic
can national committee reached this
conclusion yesterday and adjourned
subject to call.
Pittsburg and st. Louis were rivals
of Chicago for the convention. Each
city was well represented in oratory
before the committee, and each had
cash offers to make. Pittsburg offered
100000. Chicago $4,000 and a hall.
and st. Louis $4,000 and a hall The
vote stood 43 for Chicago. 7 for Pitts
burg and l for st. Louis.
Communications were read by Secre-
tary Heath from the Federal and Re
publican parties of Porto Rico both
claiming representation In the com
mittee. Mayor Todd of San Juan. rep
resenting the Republican. party, then
appeared before the committee and
gave a brief history of that party.
which he said was established In July.
1899. The Federal party was estsb-
lished some time after this. he said.
Each party is represented by two mem
bers in the local Senate. His party.
he stated. controls $1,000 out OF 49,
900 registered voters. The aim OF this
party was to Americanize the island
and stand by the administration.
Porto Rico, he said. would like to be-
represented in the next Republican ma
tional convention.
Chairman Hanna said that further
consideration of the matter would bo
had In executive session.
The decision OF the national commit
tee to have the Republican convention
meet June 2lst created considerable
talk about the capitol as to the prob
able date OF the adjournment OF Con-
gress and the fact developed that there
has already been more or less exchange
Of views among leaders OF the Senate
and House on tho question. The opln-
ion is quite general among them that
Il will be possible TO conclude tho work
OF tho session by June 2ist.

Trinidad. Colo, December 15.-Dis-
trict Judge Northcutt yesterday rem
! dered his decision in the injunction
case of the United Mine Workers of
America against the Victor Fuel Com
pany, the same suit as that given a
hearing before Judge Lindsey In the
County Court two weeks ago, Judge
Northcutt takes practically the same
ground as did the County Court, and
dismisses the suit with costs to the
plaintiffs, but allows a bill of cxcep-
tons. The plaintiff Immediately gave
notice of an appeal to the Supreme
Court
The prayer of the petitioners was for
an order restraining the Victor Fuel
Company and its employees in their ca
pacity as officers of the law at Delagua,
from interfering with the organizers of
tho United Mine Workers in their eff
forts to pass through the town TO es-
tablish n relief camp for the strikers
and to talk with the men there at work
about the strike. in order to induce
them TO quit work.
"Divestlng the various ground of
complaint on alleged interruption and
interferenCes of all legal verbosity.'
the court says. about the only pro-
hibition of which the plaintiffs serious
~ complain and which stands out
prominently through the mass OF tcs-
timony introduced, is the denial OF
their opportunities to converse with
the men in said town and persuade
them to cooperate In the pending
strike. This Is the only real business
which the plaintiffs have shown to
have In mind ut the time they desired
To visit said places and the perform
nnce OF things incidental TO said ulti-
mate purpose. II does not appear that
these plaintiffs or any OF them have
any property. business interests or
homes in, about or in close proximity
to said towns or along the roads lead
Ing to or from the same. On the other
hand. II appears that some OF them are
non-resldents of the state. and others
