MUST PAY
Dickey's Bill Carries Out
Views Of Judge
Robinson.

Senator Diekey proposes, in his bill
relating to costs of court. to pui
into effect Judge Robsnson's ideas
on the pay OF jurors. It aboiishes pay
ment of jurors in criminal cases and
taxes litigants with the fees OF Jurors
in civil cases.
The bill provides that the per diem
fees of jurors shall be taxed as costs
of court, to be paid by the losing party.
at the rate of 81 a day to each juror.
provided, however, that no per diem
fees shall be paid to either grand or
trial jurors, or taxed as costs. in any
criminal case
Each party in civil case must file
a written bond in not less than 500.
with sufficient surety or sureties ap-
proved by the judge or the clerk, con-
ditioned on the payment of all costs.
If there are two or more parties on
one side, a single bond is sufficient.
Failure to file bond shall be deem
ed waiver of trial by jury. When
ever, in a case where trial by jury is
not waived, the accrued costs shall
equal the security previously given,
another bond in 500 is required
Failure to file bond is made ground
for dismissing the case without pref
udice as to the plaintiff or for judg-
ment by default against the plaintiff,
according to the side so falling to file
a bond.
For every half day in which a
stenographer is employed. a fee of So
is taxed as costs. If two cases are
wholly tried in half day, this fee is
cut in two.
Fifty dollars is taxed in the Supreme
Court as costs on all appeals, and $25
on all other cases. In every case ex-
cept habeas corpus the money is to be
deposited with the clerk as a condi-
ton precedent to placing the cause on
the calendar, provided that in a SUBJ
mission one-half of that amount is to
be deposited by each party.
Any appeal bond or bond for costs
may be enforced or applied for the
payment of costs. Notwithstanding that
the costs may be adjudged payable by
any other party, in which case the
party or parties paying may by appro-
pirate proceedings obtain reimburse

THE PURE FOOD BILL.
The House Commerce Committee
Considering the Measure.
AMENDMENTS EXPLAINED BY WILEY.
Fifty Cargoes alderman Wines Containing
salicyIic Acid Sent Back Under the Law
.-Representative Mann Suggests an
Amendment.

Washington, Jan. 6.-Pure food leg
islation was taken up yesterday by the
house committee on interstate and for
eign commerce. Proposed amendments
to the present laws were explained to
the committee by DR.. Wiley, chief OF
the bureau OF chemistry Of the de-
partment of agriculture. An amend
ment suggested by the National Pure
Food association strikes out the words
with intent" In the provision against
misbranding of food products SO as to
relieve the government from the neces-
sity of proving the intent to deceive
In such action. ...-..-..-..
Dr. Wiley said so cargoes Of German
wines containing salicylic acid had
been sent back under the law regulat-
ing importation of foreign foods. Dur
ing the six months the law had been
in operation without suit or process
of law nearly all shipment Of adulter-
ated foreign foods had been stopped,
although previous to the operation of
the law ten per cent. of all imported
foods and drinks were adulterated.
Representative Mann, of Illinois,
asked II salicylic acid was injurious to
health. DR.. Wiley replied that, accord
ing to general opinion, it was in
furious. However, he said, he was now
conducting food experiments to ascer-
tain this fact.
Then" declared Mr.. Mann, "you
have barred out German wines before
you knew they were injurious"
1--WE have taken the action because
the German laws prohibit salicylic
acid,' replied DR.. Wiley.
YES" retorted Mr.. Mann, "but that
law was passed for the express pur-
pose of retaliation against Germany"
Mr.. Mann declared that if the pres
emit bill became law it would per-
init DR.. Wiley to destroy millions of
dollars of export business in meats
by declaring borax injurious to health.
He suggested an amendment to allow
substances to be placed in foods for
export when such substances were not
prohibited by the laws of the country
10 which the foods were to be shipped
No opposition to this amendment was
made by DR.. Wiley.
The committee will resume the con-
of the pure food bill next
Friday.

SINGLE STATEHOOD BILL.
A New Measure to Bring Oklahoma and
.s the Indian Territory Into
the Union.

Washington, Jan. GA new single
statehood bill for Oklahoma and the
Indian territory will be introduced in
the house and the senate probably to-
day. 1t was brought to Washington
by Thomas H. Doyle, of Perry, and
Henry G. Beard, of Shawnee, who ar
rived yesterday in advance of single
statehood delegation that will reach
Washington the last of this week.
"A great majority of the people of
both Oklahoma and the Indian terri
tory are in favor of single statehood"
said Mr.. Doyle "In fact, the only de-
mand for separate statehood is from
the politicians. From what I can learn
from talks with members of congress
a single statehood bill is the only state
hood bill that has any chance In this
congress"

ey3THe CRATE


when the days get raw and chilly,
And the flights come down with murk.
And I'm home and playing horseback
With the baby after work,
And the hour grows late and eerie.
And the sleepy head bends low,
Then take her and ] tell her
Dear old tales Of long ago
Then ia like good old fireplace :.
With the flames all white and red.
And the shadows swiftly chasing
Through her curls and OVERHEAD;
With the corners dark and gloomy,
Then wish that things might DO
As they were In my far childhood,
When my dad told tales to me.
I presume when she is grown up.
And electric currents heat
Houses in new-fangled fashion.
She will sit and toast her feet,
And long for her far-off Childhood
And the days of heat by steam,
As long for flames and shadows
And the CRATES romantic CLEAN.
And she'll rock towhead baby
In her arms, and grooming low
Sing the songs her mother sings her,
All the songs l used to know;
Songs my mother used to sing me,
Groom above my tousled head -
When the dark was in the corners
And the flames were white and red.
And she'll wish for hot-air heaters
Dear romantic old-style things;
Things she knew in this her childhood,
Things to which ones memry clings:
But the world makes all for progress,
knowing never stay nor wait
Goes and leaves my spirit sitting
BY queer old-fashioned CRATE.

SENATOR LODGE SPEAKS.



Washington, Jan. 6.-Practically the
entire session of the senate yesterday
was devoted to a speech by Senator
Lodge on the situation on the isthmus
of Panama. He discussed the abstract
question of the right of the president
to recognize the independence Of new
nation and concluded that such a pre-
rogative pertains exclusively to the Of
flee of the chief executive. He also
|contended that there had been a gen.
eral expectation of an uprising in Pan
anna in case Of the failure of the Hay
Herran treaty and declared that the
president could not have done less than
inform himself Of the prospect. SEN
ator Lodge argued that our interven-
ton in Panama had been only in the
interest of peace and contended that
the president had not gone d step be-
yond what the propriety called for
The conclusion Of the speech was de-
voted to the political aspect of the
question and In that connection he re-
ferred to the speeches made at the
democratic banquet In New York Mon
day night. Senator Lodge criticised
the presidential administration of Mr..
Cleveland, saying that he did not
think anything could be happier for
the republicans than tn have the .AA..--
ocrats nominate the last democratic
reform president on a policy of sustain
ing Colombia and opposing the United
States in digging canal at Panama"
Mr. Dixon. of Montana. introduced
a resolution in the house providing for
wire fence along the Canadian
boundary between the Lake Of the
Woods and Point Roberts. The object
Of the fence is to keep out Chinese
and 1t is to be so equipped
as to give signals when any one climbs
over 1t. rhe secretary of commerce
and labor is directed to report on the
feasibility Of the projected fence.

WOMEN AND THEIR MANNERS
Unpleasant Question whether
They Have Not DeterIorated.

1t is no doubt quite as impossible to
indict sex as 1t is to indict a nation;
and yet several recent episodes sug-
gest the question, certainly an unpleas-
ant one to ask, whether the manners Of
women have not deteriorated somewhat
with the growth of their so-called free
dom, says the Providence Journal.
There are few critics, even Of the reac-
tonary type, who would advocate Sc
riously return to the somewhat stilted
fashion of former days What the old
or novelists liked to call female deli
cacy" was perhaps too much in evidence
at the strenuous moments of life. We
do not appreciate to-day the young
woman who faints too easily. Indeed,
the modern ideal is distinctly athletic,
and very good thing, too. Neverthe-
less. 1t would be pity IL Astounding
physical vigor had been achieved at the
expense Of the gentle feminine graees.
A girl can ride well without acquiring
the air and language OF . hostler, and
she can set out to earn her own living.
1t may be permitted to hope, without
becoming a strident unssxed creature.
The most cynical commentator on his
kind would not assert that no good
are left; but the statement
that they are less frequent than they
should be, and that bad manners too
0ften thrust themselves upon the pub
lie consciousness, Ia only too true
