CONGRESSMAN TO EAT
ON QUICK LUNCH PLAN
Naw YORK Sim speciaI Service.

washington, April 26.-The house
restaurant has been abolished. The
committee on accounts said the serv-
ice was bad and the proprietor was
obliged to run his business at a loss.
Next session the house will have
a restaurant on the quick lunch plan.
Whether a statesman can make as
good a speech after eating "sinkers''
and coffee or ham sandwich and a
glass of buttermilk as he could on
terrapinsa la Maryland. remains to be
seen.
The real reason for the failure of
the restaurant to make money is that
congress stopped the sale Of liquor.

SCORES RUSSIAN. NAVY
Noyoe Vremya Attacks Personnel ant
Pleads for Reform.

st. Petersburg, April 26-11:5s
a. m.-The Novoe Vremya to-day con-
tains a remarkably free criticism of
the Russian navy, which reads as fol-
lows:
.'Makaroff's death marks new era
for the Russian navy. The old days,
marked by a muddle of carelessness
and ineffciency, are over, and we
have learned our lessons.
THE nation understands the ne
cessity of a reform of the personnel
Of the navy. The present system Of
promoting officers according to the
number Of nautical miles they sail
may work we'll in a highly efficient
navy, but it is absurdly dangerous
for ours, where the capacities Of the
officers fuctuate. AS a result, many
of our best officers are discouraged
into retirement"

Washington, April 26.-Uncle Joe
Cannon is worried at the growth Of
his boom for the vice presidency. It
is absolutely without consultation
with him and against his wishes that
Governor Odell has taken him UP and
promised to deliver the votes of the
empire state for his selection.
Mr.. Cannon does not want the vice
presidential nomination any more
than Roosevelt wanted it, and for
similar reasons. He does not like the
idea of laying down the real prestige
of the speakership for the empty glory
of the vice presidency.
But the fact remains that his wishes
are not likely to count for much in
determining the matter. He: is re-
garded as q strong candidate, and the
fact that he would add strength to
the ticket may result in his nomina-
ton whether or not he likes it.

SECOND LAND FRAUD CASES.
VIII Come Up for Trial December 13
at Portland.

Portland, Ore, Dec. 6.-The trial of
the second of the land fraud cases will
commence December 13. This case is
based on indictments against S. A. D.
Puter, Horace G Mckinley, Mrs. Emma
A Watson and Marie L. Ware. The
charge is similar to that in the first
case-conspiracy to defraud the govern
ment of public land.
1t is stated the government will show
that Miss Ware, while acting as United
States commissioner used the name of
r. Montague, former deputy county
clerk of Lynn county, and admitted TO
proof alleged fictitious and bogus home
steaders. The government will endeavor
to show that as a result of her alleged
unlawful acts the proof of settlement
and necessary affidavits were apparent
ly perfected and sent to Washington
for the purpose of procuring patents to
the land. These acts are alleged to
have occurred during the year 1901, and
involve lands in the Cascade forest re-
serve lying about 20 miles easter1y from
the town of Cottage Grove, Ore.

FLOOD VICTIM GOT $500.
Charges That Conductor Humiliated
Him When He Was Sick.

A peculiar railroad damage suit
came up to the supreme court today
on an appeal from Johnson county. in
which J. W. Bishop got a judgment
for $500 against the Santa Fe as a
result of the flood.
Bishop was a passenger on a train
out of Kansas City to Ottawa, which
was stalled at Holiday by the high
waters. He alleges that he was not
well and that he had to wade through
water up to his hips to get to a board
ing house. He says he demonstrated q
with the conductor and was subjected
to humiliation in the presence of the
other passengers, ana for this and be-
cause he became sick he sued the
railroad company for $4,000 damages.
The jury awarded him $500. The
railroad company appeals.

HOW SHE GOT 4 TRIP.
Medicine Lodge Girl Wanted a Visit,
Not a Wedding.

Kansas City, Dec. 6.-Frank Wilson,
la young farmer living in Kingman
county, Kansas, not far from Medicine
Lodge arrived in Kansas CITY yester-
day with Dora Fullen, a come1y coun-
try lass from the same county, whom
he expected ere this would be Mrs.
Wilson, but he returned home last
night, alone and diSconSolate and the
wedding has been indefinitely post
poned."
Wilson and his fiancee went to the
Midland hotel for luncheon after
reaching the city, and then went out
the business part of the town. The
department stores, of course, had
great interest for Miss Fullen, and
after each pilgrimage of the sort
Wilson would suggest that they go on
down to the court house and have the
marriage ceremony performed, and
see the town later. Each time she
insisted on putting it off, and finally.
when it could hardly be postponed
longer, she announced that she didn t
believe that she wanted to get mar
ried just now. She admitted that she
had had a great desire for a trip to
that they come here to get married,
primarily for the sake of the trip.
AT that Wilson flared up and told
her that if the trip was all she came
for she could find her own way of get
ting home, whereupon she sweetly in
formed him that she had some rela-
tives in Kansas City Kas., whom she
had been wanting to visit for long
time, and she considered this to be
as good a time as any. Her lover
then changed his tactics and begged
and pleaded with her, but she re-
manned obstinate. ana the last he saw
of her was on board a car, bound for
the other side of the river.
After vain1y trying to drown his
troubles, Wilson was telling his tale
of woe to a few interested listeners
at the Midland last night, just before
he left for his train.
at just can't understand it, he said,
when I asked Dora to marry me, she
took me up pretty quick, but I never
had any idea of any such a deal as
this. I guess I'll go back home. cause
there amt no use to try to do anything
with her now, but I'm hopin' that,
maybe she'll change her mind yet"
