ON FLORIDA BEACH.
Conditions Mere Favoeabie For thu
 Automobile Races.

Conditions More Favorabie For the
 Automobile Races.
 Ormond, Fla, Jan. 28--Boreas and Neptune combined in playing havoc with the Ormond- -Daytona racing speedway Thursday and Friday. but conditions were. much more favorable today and three good races were pulled off, one of them being especially note- worthy in the fact that a new worlds record for ten miles was made. Ed ward R. Thomas did the trick in his ninety horse power machine, covering the ten miles in six minutes and thirty one and three-fifth seconds and winning the handsome Allen-H Halle trophy. The worlds record for ten miles was held by William K. Vanderbilt six minutes and fifty seconds, made on the Ormond- Daytona beach last year. Mir. Thomas lowered this record nineteen and one fifth seconds, or nearly two seconds to the mile. Thus far the one, five and ten mile records have been smashed. the only failure being the effort to lower the kilometer worlds record.
 There were four starters in the ten mile race. Edward R. Thomas. driving his own machine; E. H. Fredericks, driving B. M. Shanley's machine, for merly owned by w. K. yandervilt and the car in which he made tho worlds record for this distaaUe last year; Samuel B. Stevens. driving his own machine and James l.. Breeze in his horsepower ear. All the others were ninety horsepower. II. L. Bowden had his 100 horsepower entered for this race. but 1t was barred on account of overweight. The Shanley car was the second one in. Time. 7:44 1-5. MT. Breese was third. time 9:25 4-5. MT. Stevens did not finish.
 Another race on the program was the ten miles for the Hollander and Tangeman cup. There were but two entries. Paul Sartori. in Alfred G. Van derbilts ninety horsep swer car, and William Wallace in ais car of the same power. Mir. WslIaePt 'as an easy win- neF. covering tic ter miles in 6:54 2-5. anly 2-5 seconds behind the worlds record.
 The next event on the morning pro- gram was ten miles for the Ormond derby for the Major c. J. s. Miller trophy owing to the large number of entries. this race was run in heats. Those in the first heat were Arthur D. Macdonald, in his ninety horsepower: M. G. Bernin in Mir. Brokaw's sixty horsepower and Charles De Plus in Joseph H. Heller's eighty horsepower. MT. Macdonald took the lead at the start and was not pushed in the race. He finished first in 7:o6. De Plus was second. time, TAO 2-5, and Bernin third, time 7:5S.
 In the second heat the starters were Edward Thomas in his record breaking machine; B. M. Shanley's car and James L. Breese in his thirty horsepower. MT. Thomas won the heat in 7:1O. MT. Fredericks in the Shanley car was second. time 1929 4-5; MT Breese did not get off and he was dropped back to the third heat. which he won in 1929 2-5, as MT. Wallace did not finish, and w. K. Vanderbilt's car did not ap- pear at the starting point.

NEW GERMAN TREATIES.
They May Affect Adversely the Trade
 of the United States.

ImCy Iuny Auect AONcN8chy tuG AEAuG
 of the United States.
 Berlin, Jan. 2S.--The Government this evening published an abstract of the new commercial treaties with Aus tria-Hungary, Russia, Switzerland, Bell gium, Italy, Roumania and Servia, which arc expected especially to affect Germanys foreign trade for the next ten years. the term for which the treaties run.
 The treaties represent quite four years work. for before the negotia- tions were begun the new tariff was devised and adopted after eighteen months debate. This tariff, which Is not yet in force will go into effect on the same date as the treaties of 1906. The treaties affect the United States adversely only in case they are de- signed by Germany as not coming un- der the most favored nation clause. The Governments memorandum on the treatie sdoes not say whether the countries enjoying the most favored nation treatment will be admitted to the benefits of these conventions.
 The Government is determined not to raise the question of the most fa- vored nation clause until the treaties go into effect In all events the Gov ernment Is not willing to say in ad- vance how American products will be treated. The German Government would gladly negotiate a reciprocity with the United States.
 The question of what can be done in the absence of such a treaty remains open. Germany has collected express siOns of American reciprocal treaties that make as the German Government thinks. a strong argument against ad- hitting the United States to the bene- fits of the new treaties. Still the Ger man Government Is noncommittal and would probably propose a treaty to the United States If it thought there was any likelihood of the proposition being accepted.

MAJORITY OR
 TWO-THIRDS Senate Must Pass on
 Question. THE CASE OF REED SHOOT
 -e- Dispute as to Vote Necessary
 to Expel. Argument is Finished Before the Cena- mittee and Attorneys Are Gfvsa Until February 1, to File
 Written Briefs.
THE CASE OF REED SHOOT

Washington, Jan. 2s.--The investi~ gation of protests against Senator Smoot of Utah, retaining his seat in the United States senate was conclude ed today by the committees on prfvi- ieges and elections and when report .s drafted by the committee the in- sestigation will pass to the whole sens ate
 One question of great moment which wtii be fought over on the floor in the senate is whether two thirds vote OF n majority of the senate is required to expel a member. Mir. Tayler. counsel Tor the Protestants, holds that ma jority vote will suffice In the same manner that majority vote will pre- vent a senator from first taking hfs seat.
 1t will be several weeks before che committee will be able to report. The committee allowed counsel until Feb- ruAry 4. to revise their arguments and file written bricks.
 Only one session of the committed was held today. Mir. Worthingtou. counsel for Senator Shoot concluded his argument and Judge Tayler closed tne case for the Prostestants.
 Mir. Worthington discussed the poIi- tfcal rule of the church which he de- clared meant nothing beyond the fact that a Mormon shall not remain 6 high officer of the church. or in other words he mus resign his church post tion to run for 8 political office if the church thinks he cannot perform the duties of both offices
 Takes TayIer to Task.
 He took Judge Tayler to task for his statement that man who practiced the counsel of his creator is united to hold seat in the Senate.
 MT. worthington declared that in all the mass of testimony offered only one plural marriage had been proved since the manifesto and that case in Mexi- co, where 1t was not shown the man performing the ceremony had been in formed that the contracting husband had another wife.
 Mir Worthington closed with the statement that great deal has been said about the matter of the protection of the home. 'If this is true con- tend" said MT. Worthington, that Mr. Shoot should retain his seat. because 1t has been shown that he has coun- selled nothing but good& and Gentiles who voted for him did so because they knew he believed in upholding the laws of the land and that he led a pure ltfe.'
 Judge Tayler in closing the argu- ments declared that MT. Worthington had misinterpreted his remarks on the subject of revelations.

 The man in the case is an employ ment agent and the woman is said to be one of Hoch's numerous wifes. Each has furnished the police with consid- erable information.
 The man declares that the woman has been illegally married many times and that there are charges pending against her in connection with one of the mar riages at Jefferson, a suburb of Chi cago. In return the woman\ asserts that her accuser was an accomplice of Hoch and watched the cash windows of savings banks in order to spot" widows who made deposits

 Washington, Jan. 2S.-EuIogies up- on the character of the late Senator George r. Hoar of. Massachusetts prac- tically engrossed the time of the Sen ate today. There were sixteen speeches by as many Senators. including Senator Hoars colleague, MT. Lodge, and his successor, MT. Crane.
 Senator German paid a high tribute to the dead Senator's fairness to the South in periods succeeding the war, saying:
 He was through 1t all a man of in- finite compassion, of comprehensive sympathies. of noble and unselfsh im- pulses. He was a partisan without rancor, an antagonist without bitter ness. a friend without reservations and conditions. a conquerer without ven- geance, loser without resentment"

THE ROUvIER MINISTRY.
Its Majority in Chamber of Deputies
 Almost Unprecedented.

Paris Jan. 2S-The Rouvier Cabinet has begun work under the most favor able circumstances. Its overwhelming majority of S03 in the Chamber of Deputies last night is almost without precedent and in marked contrast with the majority of about forty on which the Confbes Cabinet had struggled along for the past two years.
 Placing the income tax debate before the debate on the proposed separation of church and State gives time for en- emies to cool. Thereafter it is expecte that Rouvier will carry out the sepa- ration to which he has pledged the min istry.
 The new Ministry of Public Worship, M. Bienvu Martin, belongs to one of the Socialist groups strongly favorable to separation. He says he accepted the portfolio SO that it would not go to some reactionary less anxious to carry out the policy of separation.

THE CARE OF HER GOWNS.
This Wonnn's Method " Worthy OF
Being Widely Copied.

This Womnn's Method " Worthy OF
Being Widely Copied.
A time saver Is the plan which a wo-
man who has much Of her dressmaking
done IN the house has evolved In the
care Of her gowns. She keeps nil Of
her waists for each gown If not tho
whole gown itself In boxea. With It
she puts the little bunch Of silk or
scraps Of lace and ribbon that wero
left. Size also puts in the particular
bunch Of ruchlng that she has selected
for wearing with 1t 30 that In case Of a
fresh piece being needed or any little
change being thought Of she has every
thing at hand ready when she takes
down the box.
AS may be imagined, she ts one who
can add a touch here and mako a
change there in her collar or belt ar
rangements, little improvements which
IN true feminine fashion she often
makos a few minutes before she puts
the dress on. For this and for any &C
cident which happens to the gown the
scraps already at hand are invaluable.
The same plan applies in keeping tho
wells which go with 1t in the box with
each hat, where they have more room
than In n common veil box and where
the time is saved which 1t takes to get
out two boxes.-Plttsburg Dispatch.
