the majority that the bill will really
pass, and that with the assistance OF
even the other Home Rulers.

This great legal mind has been
frequently quoting the Organic Act,
together with certain other laws and
authorities, yet he cannot see that the
inevitable is staring him in the face.
We utterly fail to under,tand his
continued obstruction after being
sat on often. Our suggestion to him
is to let his views remain as already
expressed, and there let them stay,
but on the main issue, work with
the majority for the attainment of
County aud Municipal control OF
affairs. At the present time in the
House, one OF the two County bills
is bound to pass finally on third
reading before the week is out, which
is likely to be the Senate bill, aud
then be referred to a conference
committee for final agreement and ad
iustment. This is what it should be 4,
pass it; never mind the legal delin-
quencies that MIR Kupihes is looking
after as mares nest, aud we re-
peat-pass it, aud let those who
came after pick out the e awe. and
shou there be any, the responsi-
bility is not on him and his party,
but rather on the predominaling
party, which is now the ruling and
controlling party of the country.

THE COUNTY MEASURE,

In spite of the efforts OF the great
legal light of the Home Rulers in
the House to block the Republican
County Bill, both bills, that of the
Senate and of the House as we'll
have passed the second stage OF ad-
vancement, Mr. Kupihes to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. His foolish
tactics have done him and his party
no good, and instead OF joining
hands after his measure OF the same
nature had been resurrected from
its premature death on the table, he
has acted most obstreperously and,
IN fact, most stubbornly. 1t is we'll.
Known that his party is as much
pI dyed to the passage of County
ii as the Republican party is, but
after showing his antagonism, and
IA ling, he should have assisted the
ep cial committee, of which he was
.. III smber, for before the House bill
W., over committed, he braggingly
a.ed on the floor that he was ready
with all his amendments. But 80 far,
II )thing has been seen of a single
amendment from his way but Others
his party have worked in the way
IF attaining the desired object.
Both the Senate aud House bills
(No's l and 81 are still before the
House and both have passed the
second reading stage. From present
indications, it is perfectly noticeable
that the majority party mean to pass
it without in the least giving the
Home Rule Bill much OF a show,
which has been committed to the
special committee on the Loug
Municipal Bill, where it now is. Had
ths strenuous floor leader OF the
II ,me Rulers shown an earnest dis
position to work with will in help
* along the work by having his
IN lch talked OF amendments in-
serted, which the majority was per-
fec ly willing to give way, he might
have some cause for qualification,

SERIOUS CREYASSE
The Hymlia Break in the Mississippi
Seems to Be Beyond
Control.

New Orleans, March 30.-Discoura ging
news comes to-day from the Hymla break.
During the early morning more of the
cribbing was swept away by the terrific
current that is running through the brok-
en- levee and the ends are caving with
greater rapidity than ever. Large forles
are at the scene and lumber is arriving in
abundance but the crevasse Is apparently
beyond control. Senator Brady, in charge
at one end, says the break has now
reached a width Of 600 feet and that while
work will continue the outlook for closing
it is less promising than it has been.
The land for miles around, is vast
sheet of water and the tracks of the
Texas Pacific are now completely COW
cred while the Southern Pacific is con-
stantly in danger from backwater. II
the crevasse is abandoned the break will
doubtless prove one Of the worst since the
Davis crevasse In 1884. The levee Is built
of river sand and unless the ends can be
held, will crumble with great rapidly.
There was no rise during the night.

THE NEW ANTI.SEMlTISM
DR.. Hirsch Says It Is Not in the Gut.
.ers but Among the Aris-
tocracy.
Now York Sun Special Service.

Chicago, March 3O.-'It is no longer In
the cutters but among the aristocracy
that anti-Semitism Is nursed." declares
DR.. Emil G. Hirsch. In a sermon at Tenn
pie Sinai yesterday morning he scored
Houston Stewart Chamberlain. Emperor
William, Professor Delitsch of theological
research fame and the Liberal Unitarian
church for displays of ignorance or bias
concerning the revelations. Of the Old
Testament. ...,. 1,E< &c.
1.-THE anti-Semitism Of the gutter has
spent it's force he said, but not that
of the cathedral and of the aristocracy.
This Is evidenced by the reception ac-
corded Houston Stewart Chamberlain s
work in Europe. Emperor William has
himself distributed 300 copies of the work
at his own expense and he gave one to
the president Of the Louisiana Exposition
company.
1.-The anti-Semitism among the cutters
was not so dangerous because it was not
so insiduous as the antiSemitism which
finds entrance into drawing rooms, and
tolerance in the universities .+.
DR.. Hirschs subject was 1.-THE God to
Whom Jesus Taught Men to Pray The
lecturer expressed hope that this great
democratic nation would not follow the
bias of Europe and Emperor William.

A Toast to Death;
A STRANGE INCIDENT
PennelI Bought a Revolver the Morning
-" -.t" After the Murder.

Buffalo, March 30.-Arthur r. Pennell
bought revolver at the Main street store
of Walbridge & Co. on the, morning of
Friday, Feb. %, within two hours after
the discovery of Burdicks dead body and
before the news. Of the murder had been
made public. Pencil was an old GUS
toner at Walbridges. He remarked that
some one had broken into his home and
stolen his revolver, and he liked to have
one on hand. Pencil. seemed agitated.
It was between 8 and 10 o'clock when he
entered. se;.s
Give me a, cheap revolver" he. said to
q. W.. Fox, in charge of the sporting
goods department, Pennell paid IS for
weapon and put It, in his pocket and went
away. While waiting: for the clerk to
wrap up the revolver he walked nervously
up and down. Fox noticed this, and re-
marked to- another clerk named Edmunds
that Penne1l had acted strangely and that
he seemed to be in a remarkable hurry.
| PennelI never told the police or the dis
trict attorney about buying this revolver.
He told. them, that when he came down
town on the morning after the murder he
went to. the Hotel Iroquois., and was
shaved. Then he went to. his office in the
Austin building and about noon took a
+ trolley car. to an automobile factory at
| Black. Rock There he said he talked
t about. some repairs to be made to his ma
chine. Undoubtedly that was true.
He did not return until $40. o'clock. in
| the evening, and at II o'clock the district
attorney and five detectives were with
| him in the parlor of his home. They re-
| manned with him for two hours and the
examination was rigid.
| !, PenneH was nervous, but considering
| his relations with the Burdicks, the agi-
tation was not remarkable. = He told an
apparently Straightforward story, declar-
| ing that he did not go out Of his house
the night before. His wife and his SER
want, Lizzie Romance, were questioned
separately. and both we're certain that
Pencil was at his home all OF Thursday
Lizzie Romance was asked about the
burglary to which Pencil referred In his
talk with the clerk at Walbridge,s IT

money or jewelry or silver. They just
seemed to have ..poked around through
the tables and, desks as though looking
| for papers She. did not know that a
