EXTRA SESSION OF SENATE WILL
BE CALLED IF TREATIES ARE
NOT RATIFIED.
PRESIDENT so ANNOUNCES
Grave Reasons Of State Why Both the
Panama Canal and Cuban Reciproc
ity Conventions Should Be Ap
proved at the Earliest Possible Mo-
ment and These Induced the Presi
dent to Make the Announcement.

Washington, Feb. 20.-President
Roosevelt will call an extraordinary
session of the senate of the Fifty
eighth congress unless both the Pan
ANA canal and the Cuban reciprocity
treaties are ratified at the present ses-
sion. The president made this dec
laration of his intention to several
senators and he made it as emphatic
and unequivocal as he was capable of
making it.
1t is deemed likely by officials of the
administration and by many senators
that both treaties will be ratified be-
fore March 4, but the necessity for
their early ratification is regarded by
the president as so urgent that in the
event of the failure of either one or
both at the present session he will
issue Immediately his call for an eA
ira session.
1t is said that there are grave rea-
sons of state why both treaties should
be ratified as soon as possible These
have induced the president to make
the announcement to senators of his
determination.

Judge J. B. Southland, Familiarity

received the interruption. The re-
marks of His Honor referred to a bull
lion stealing case in the trial of which
Mr.. Blair had participated a week pre-

deavored to procure a dismissal of the
indictment, on the ground now refer

had subsequently acquitted the defend

Honor pleases," said Blair. "I know
that the statute provides that neither
party shall be allowed to testify as
to verbal declarations made by the
other party, where the other party IS
dead, but 1 submit that the statute
does not apply to cases where the
pleadings are verified and one of the
parties dies during the trial." Mr..
Blair's argument was with reference
to an action concerning farm, which
had been tried a month before, and
in which action the plaintiff died while
the case was on trial Your Honor
will pardon me-" said Mr.. Blair, "for
this depression, but since the case at

TarOena
THE GREAT HAWAIIAN
Infant and Beallh Food

Because it is one of the best prepared
foods ever offered. Taroena agrees
with the weakest stomach. 1t often is
the only food retained by weak
stomach.
For infants there is nothing to equal
Taroena. Hundreds of children right
in this city have been raised on it. 1t
makes puny children strong, robust,
healthy. Unlike artificially prepared
foods, causing a one-sided develop
ment, Taroena develops the whole body
bones, blood, brain and nerves. 1t is
a safe food and will not cause bowel or
stomach troubles like other foods. If
YOUR baby is not thriving try Taroena.
