D. A. r.

With characteristic breeziness the Ma
tional Society of the Daughters of the
American Revolution began its thirteenth
annual continental congress in Washing
ton yesterday. What delegate declar-
ed to be vicious class legislation were two
proposed amendments to the constitution
concerning the number of vice presidents
of the society.
One of these amendments, proposed
by Mrs. Caroline E. McWiliams, OF
Illinois, provided that vice president at
large to represent the army and navy
may be nominated at each congress by
the majority of delegates from any one
State not presenting candidate.
The other, offered by Caroline r.
Nash, as an amendment to the McWil-
liams amendment, provided that such
nominee must be the wife or daughter of
an officer of the army or navy, the two
services alternating at each election.
Althea Randolph Bedle offered an
amendment making Mrs. NJ. S. Lock
wood, Miss Mary Desha and Mrs. Ellen
Hardin Walworth, the surviving organ
izers of the d. A. r., life members Of
the national board, with full privileges
as members of the national board and
continental congress. 1t was pointed ont
that this would conflict with other por-
tiuns of the constitution aud action was
postponed indefinitely,
A change was proposed concerning the
formation OF the congress, but it was
finally withdrawn.

JUDGE l.. l.. LEWIS, now u. 5. Dis
trict Attorney for this Virginia district,
in an interview in Richmond on Satur-
day said he was not candidate for gov

Judges sense and he does not intend to
allow such questioning by trying for a
position entirely beyond his reach, for he

A disordered stomach may cause no
end of trouble. When the stomach fails
to perform its functions the bowels be-
come deranged, the liver and kidneys
congested, causing numerous diseases,
the most fatal of which are painless and
therefore the more to be dreaded. The
important thing is to restore the stomach
and liver to healthy condition, and for
this purpose no better preparation can be
used than Chamberlain Stomach and

Ethel did not entirely recover from

nights sleep had served to calm her
nerves. and all the evening that followed
she was excited and scarcely able to con-

When she babe the family good night

head. Nerving herself for her duty, how
ever, az we'll as she could, she proceed
ed 10 light her candle, and taking the in
dispensable knife, she passed through the
wardrobe and passageway, into the cor
ridOr beyond.
Possessing herself of the basket Of
food, she remembered to fasten the door
with the iron hook. a precaution the bar
onet had charged her always to observe,
that by no possibility could she be sur
prised while accomplishing her task, then
passing onward. she opened the panel as
usual, and placed the plate of food upon
the shelves.
AS she did so she heard distinctly a
movement on the other side, which, being
rather unusual. for silence alone ordi-
narily reigned. startled her already eI-
cited nerves so much that she gave the
shelves the required shove, and just as
they whirled away, she saw, to her hor
ror, when too late TO stop them. that she
had dropped the knife from her hand,
and it had gone around with the food
Breathlessly she waited for the return
movement, hoping that the creature with.
i'll would not observe it, and that it would
come back with the plate.
AS she waited. singular loud, shrill
noise or cry came from within. The next
moment the shelves had revolved, and
the plate alone appeared.
Appalled, with her own carelessness,
and fancying she knew not what ms the
result, the terrified, half frantic girl,
could only draw to the panels, with all
the expedition possible, and then hastily
