HOUSE CLERKS GET
FIRE OF WILLIAMS
Response for Absent Members AL

Washington, May 1e.-speaker Can
reading clerks Of the house yesterday.
Mr.. Williams (Miss:) during the fill
buster against the bill to pay Samuel
Lee, negro, $4,000 for expenses in
CURED during his contest for a seat in
the forty-seventh congress, stating that
he had heard the name of a member
called and that the clerk had recorded
him as voting when as a natter Of fact
the member was not in the city.
He said that he thought on several
occasions he had heard clerks respond
for the names for the members, but he
could not be certain Of this because his
own hearing was not good. On this
OCCASION, however, he had distinctly
heard the clerk vote the member and
he thought there ought to be a more
careful calling Of the roll. -
Speaker Cannon replied that the
efficiency and integrity Of the clerks
at the speaker g desk had never been
questioned. In fact their worth. and
honesty were known to every member.
He said that in this great hall and
with the great membership in the house
it was almost impossible at times to
hear members respond and he thought
that in moment Of thoughtlessness the
clerk may have recorded a response
without 2 consideration. He believed
that the taking Of votes in the house
was on high plane Of integrity.
Mr.. Williams replied by saying that
he did not desire to impugn the motives
Of the. clerks, he only asked for a
proper record.

SENATOR BAILEY'S PRAYER
For Time When Men Shall Be Judged
by Conduct Instead Of Fortune.
Nashville America.

In closing his recent speech In the senate
Senator Bailey INDUCED in some reflections aside
ment and which all can indosse They are
we were reaching an era in this devoted land
where men are to be judged by how they act
and what they think, rather than by what
they have; when intellect, and not fortune,
when conduct more than birth should be the
measure Of our esteem. and when an honest
ambitious youth should be taught to toll and
hope.
'.Mr. President. am one Of those who be-
lfeve that such time may come-of course I am
not so simple minded as to dream that the
old days of small fortunes and great content
but do believe in the coming Of better day
than this, when the man who knows that he is
lust and honest will feel that he is happier
In his circumstances than the man whose riches
have been corrupted thru injustice.
II pray for the time to come when we shall
have a new standard to guide our children;
when we shall teach them that Justice is bet
ter than power. and lead them into the en-
nobling faith that truth shall conquer falsehood
in every home where peace abides and in every
land where men are free. Under the influence
Of higher ideals and more unselfsh aspirations
all hate and envy will vanish from our minds,
and the only evil thought which still must vex
ever feel toward the good. When conduct In
stead Of fortune is made the rule by which we
Judge all men. every boy In all the land no
matter how humble his parentage or how limited
his oppor tunities, will feel the thrill of hope,

LUMBER COMPANIES HARD HIT
Losses Steadily Piling Up-Flames
Thirty Feet High in Timber.

Wausaukee, Wis, May 19.-Wausau-
kee, Marinette county, is .hemmedz in
by forest fires, which are slowly creep
ing up to the city on the north and
south. Millions of feet of lumber are
burned. The loss now is estimated at
100000.
Z At Cedarville, a town four miles
south Of this city, forest fires have de-
stroYed many cars loaded with lumber
on the tracks and big kilns filed with
cedar are burned. A fierce wind is
blowing sparks and burning embers for
miles, All trains are being held here
ais the rails are twisted from the in
tense heat. Hundreds Of cords Of hard
wood, piled near the tracks, are burn
ing.
The, Bird & Wells Lumber company
has suffered an enormous loss. Several
of their camps are destroyed. The
losses Of the Bird, H. P. Christ, Nose
Swallow and many other logging COM
panies are steadily growing. e. .-.
Three miles south Of this place an
other fierce fire is raging. The flames
are sweeping thru slashing and forest.
| The flames in some places are thirty
! feet high. The dry condition is respon-
sible for the great loss and the fire
sweeps everything clean.
Trains are forced to wait here until
| 1000 new rails can be sent to repair
the tracks. It is doubtful if a train
can approach the city from any side

WHAT THEY WEAR IN PARIS
Never Have the Fashions There Been
- So Saucy and Self Assertiye.

Eleanor Franklin in Leslie's Weekly.
Just now the boulevards and the Bots de Bou-
1ogne, the cafes and the theaters are filled with
women all brand new in sunshine hnery. And
never in the world have fashions been so saucy
and self-assertiye, womankind so bent upon
making the most of life. That's Paris and
New York It is different in London. where de-
mureness attains its best success-and no En-
glish maid need regret the possession Of her
peculiar characteristic.
To be positively French" just now a woman
must wear wee bit Of hat perched upon
mass Of wavy hair and tilted down to the very
tips Of well-kept eyebrows. All the trimming
must be in the back, and there can't very
well be too much of It, And 1t must be bright
and-perky. 1 can think of better word
to express the necessary crisp jauntiness of it
and the face beneath 1t must wear a look Of
expectant happiness. else It will become an in
congruous creation. Then. too, the gown must
be in keeping Something bright and tight and
braided. The skirt must be short enough to dis
close pair Of pretty feet in high-heeled shoes
of tie same color and the whole being inside
these remarkable clothes must exhnle cheerful
ness.
This is the French girl in the yellow sunshine
on the Paris boulevards. didn't dream of writ
ing fashion letter. but one cannot ignore
the Parisienne in connection with the subject
of Partisan sunbeams because she reflects such
loads of them. F..

Chicago, May l9.-Dr. N. W. Taylor,

hospital for the insane, is convinced
that violet rays are efficacious in the
treatment of insanity, and in an inter
view he detailed experiments now be-

II have had constructed a house
rooted with violet-colored glass, in
which insane patients are placed to get
the sun baths that filter thru the tinted
panes. I have followed the expert

French and Danish scientists, and for
several years past have experimented

Railroad Losses Heavy.

vision, North Western road, announced
late last night that owing to conflicting
reports being received, he was unable
to estimate the loss to that company.
It is reported that several railroad
bridges have been destroyed and that
entire trains Of cars have been burned
, on the tracks. =
All freight traffic on both the North
Western and Escanaba and Lake Supe-
rior roads was suspended early yester-
day AFTERNOON and the entire attention
of the train crews given to relief trains
sent out to move residents of burned
towns to places of safety.
Owing to the fact that the rails have
been warped by the terrific heat in
many places. making it necessary to
lay new rails, the progress Of the trains
was slow, and some Of the crews have
not yet been heard from. :
Regular Inferno.
A perfect pail of smoke hangs over
the city and last night the entire sur
rounding country was lighted up by
flames which were moving in this direc.
ton. It is believed their progress will
be stopped before this city is threat
