The Hungarian prima donna. Fraulein
Fedak. who is an ardent automobilist, is
well known in many villages in the neigh

less driving. Her last exploit was to run
into a great flock of geese.
She did not stop to inquire as to the
extent Of the damage done. but the vii
layers, knowing that she must return the
same way, barricaded the roadway. When
she came back she was unable to pass.
and the villagers produced 40 dead geese.
the owners of which presented bills for
each. They saiG she had killed them all
Fraulein Fedak smilingly paid up, and
the geese were then loaded in the car.

In Defense of the Senate.

From the Kansas City Journal
Perhaps the strongest argument against
election of Senators by popular vote is
found in the fact that public officials who
look directly TO the people for their cleo
ton are more easily influenced by popular
impulse. which is often wrcng and dan
gerous to the public welfare. There
should be at least one body in the law
making establishment which can afford
TO resist popular clamor when it is
manifestly wrong and stand between the
people and the results OF their own pass
ing folly The Senate as it is at pres
ent constituted is really the safeguard

up the school, increasing the attendance,

members Of the schools could do 10 bet

of Paris, Has Made Discovery.

Paris, Oct S-The Matin announces
that Prof Behring has discovered a new
method of sterilizinE milk without boiling
it or destroying any Of its essential prln-
ciplcs. The method is based on the quail
tiles of perhydrol, simply oxygcnated.
One gramme per liter destroys all nOx-
iOus germs. MIX thus steTiliZed can be
kept for a long time, while it Is not in
jured by travelling. Prof. Behring says
he has proven that light has a very
harmful effect on milk, whether It is
sterillzed or not. He recommends that It
be kept in the dark or in red or green

OF the church, which say that no woman

done?
True, she could and did throw a filmy
