have received the most enthusiastic
receptions in other parts of the coun-
try have met with only a Chautauqua
salute in the national capital. The
cause Of this seeming indifference un-
doubtedly lies in the fact that great
men are as common in Washington
as blackberriea.
Despite this apathetic air the peo-
pie Of Washington propose to wake
up and show the country that they
are not Indifferent to their own dis
tinguished citizens, among whom they
always claim the president Of the
United States. They now propose to
give Mr.. Roosevelt a fitting reception
upon his return to the capital on
September 80. They do not intend
to have the garish display that other
cities might get up for such an &C.
casion, but the plan is to have the
citizens assemble by the thousand
along Pennsylvania avenue from the
railroad station to the white house
and applaud the president as the lat
ter drives from the train to his Of
fetal home. There will be no mill
tary display and no firing Of cannon,
but just such a reception as the rech-
earche pepulace of this ultra conserva-
tive town might be expected to give.
The Chautauqua salute was first dis
cussed, but a compromise has been
suggested which is likely to be adopt.
ed and that is to use small American
flags instead Of handkerchiefs in wav-
ing The salute.
There will be no speeches at this
reception much to the regret Of the
honorable commissioners who are gift
ed in this line. It is remembered That
two years ago when q similar demon
stration was gotten up to welcome
the president home from a western
tour, the oficial orators drew up be;
fore the executive as he alighted and
prepared to deliver a formal speech
Of welcome. Mr.. Roosevelt waved
them aside, sprang into his carriage
and at once entered upon the drive to
the white house. There will be nc
wasted efforts on oratory this time.

THREW BISCUIT AT HUSBAND
Article Not CIassed as Deadly Weapon
and Divorce Suit Fails

When his wife hurled a biscuit at
him DR.. L. W. Watts petitioned the
superior court of San Diego county
for a divorce on the ground of eX-
treme cruelty.
From the testimony brought out at
the trial of the case it developed that
the biscuit was considerably under
weight and the court held that the
dainty morsel was not within the
meaning of the statute concerning
deadly weapons and the divorce was
accordingly denied.
Shortly after the San Diego court
rendered it's decision Mrs. Watts ar
rived at the conclusion that it was up
to her to act and coming to Los An"
geles she filed similar proceedings
against her husband, charging him
with desertion and failure to provide.
There were no allegations in Mrs
Watts complaint concering the death
dealing biscuit. On the contrary She
averred that her partner in life was
not inclined to furnish her with the
wherewithal from which a biscuit
might be constructed.
Mrs. Watts is strikingly handsome
woman of the brunette type and as she
related the story of her domestic grief
yesterday in Judge Conrey's court tears
filed her eyes,
When the witness related the tale of
the biscuit she evidently touched
sympathetic spot in the courts heart
for, Judge Conrey nervously interrupt
ed her story by saying;
THAT will do"
The day the doctor charged his wife
with the reckless handling of biscuit
was a fatal epoch in his domestic
career, and it induced Mrs. Watts to
take decided action in Cupid's depart
ment of wounded heart strings.
Judge Conrey held that for hus-
band to charge his wife with throwing
a biscuit, especially an aged one, was
fatal to his happiness and the divorce
was granted.

Nelson told the court that shortly

Mrs. Nelson did not appear in court
