one of their estate commissioners seem to be the chief difficulties although the nationalist members appeared to be agreed that the bill went farther toward putting Ireland on a prosperous basis than anything before introduced, especial Iy as the system is to be administered on a commercial rather than judicial basis. Hitherto all the land acts have come un- der the interpretation of the judges whose decisions could not be questioned. The only skeleton at this polite love feast was Michael Davitt, who from the public gal lery aloof from his former comrades, lis- tened to proposals which opposed all ms economical deals.
 Several conservative members expressed to the Associated Press correspondent their anxiety at the governments going more deeply into debt, but the general opinion was that the end justified the means. Sir John Laurence said:
 Will Have Solid Majority.
 Many among us think that the govern ment has a hard enougn financial job on it's hands already. but the fact of the de- mand coming from both Irish parties we can scarcely help trying to settle prob- lem which has been such serious thorn for so long time. l think you will find the government will have solid majority when the bill Is voted upon"
 MT. Wyndham spoke for one hour and a half giving the outlines of the com plicated measure, skilfully. threading his way through a maze of figures and when not arguing the points of the bill, he brought out the plan in such a manner as to earn general commendation from both parties and all sections of the house. The bill was read the first time with little de- lou nd xuff hOlIf q division The digoua- sion following MT. Wyndham's exposition of the provisions of the bill brought forth. a little unfriendiy criticism.
 It is absolutely conceded that the bill will pass, though 1t may be modified In it's minor details. There Is strong disin- ciination on the part of certain members to discuss the bill until it is thoroughly

SENATORS VISIT THE PRESIDENT

United States Senators Alice and Ball
called on President Roosevelt Thursday
in reference to the appointment of sue
cessor to District Attorney Byrne. The
President tried to have them agree upon
man to fill the vacancy, but again they
failed to get anywhere near an agreement
Senator Alice, leader OF the Addicks Re-
publicans, presented the name of Walter
H. Hayes, while Senator Ball, leader ef
the anti-Addicks element, presented the
name OF John P. Nields. The President,
it is understood, has given the two Sena-
tors to understand that he wants to see
harmony. If there can be no agreement
by the two Senators, the President will
settle this case in a way that may not
please either of them.
When District Attorney Byrne re-
signed, it was to take effect when his
successor is appointed and qualities Ac-
cordingly, it is expected that Mr.. Byrne
will try the cases at the coming term of
the United States District Court.
Unlike one year ago when District At
torney Byrne resigned, Judge Bradford
cannot make the appointment.

THE DUDE WAS DIVORCED FROM HIS
PRETTY WIFE

Mr.. Albert had to get divorce from
his beautiful wife; Mr.. Albert was not
very handsome man, but he was dude
just the same, for he always wore very
nice clothes; always went neatly dressed,
and the old saying is, ''no matter how
person looks, but nice, neat clothes makes
man look NICE" Mr.. Albert got ac-
quainted with pretty girl by the name
of Bertha, and it was not long before AL
bert and Bertha got married; in few
weeks after their marriage Bertha saw
she had made mistake, for every two
months he used to buy his fine suit of
clothes, and always paid big prices
$4,000 and S5000-and his wages was not
large enough to support his beautiful wife
and pay such big prices for clothes, SO he
and his wife began to quarrel, and the
next thing they got a divorce. That
young man was very foolish, he could
have lived happy with his beautiful wife
if he had only bought bis clothing from
the Globe Clothing Store. He could have
gotten just as nice suit of clothes for
much less than half, and made IS good as
the suits he paid $4,000 for, as all the
clothing the Globe Clothing Store hand
les is as good as any custom tailor made,
for Mr.. S. M. Rosenberg goes to the
cities and visits the leading manufacturers
and buys the very latest designs and
styles; never bothers with any job lots as
they are always inferior stock; his goods
are always perfect in fit and in style.
Everybody is cordially invited to call
and examine the stock at the Globe
Clothing Store.
