There was a glitter of silver, a
CLEAN of gold-in the opening! The
Girl in Pink felt a shiver creep down
her back; her heart throbbed wildly.
And Mollie was right! Her dreams
were true!
1t was silver-heavy, solid silver
wrapped in soft, old, yellowed paper
that plainly told of the passing of the
years.
Slowly, reverently, Mollie unwrapped
them piece by piece. The blue eyes
were luminous, the sweet mouth trem-

other bundle of silver spoons, a pitch
err, a silver sugar and creamer, pair
of sugar tongs, half-dOzen silver
plates of foreign make, two gold-lined
goblets, and a queer low dish of silver
fligree.
Suddenly everyone stood still. There
was confusion of voices, tramplinG
of heavy feet in the hall, and the next
moment the door was flung violently
open, and two brawny policemen stood
on the threshold.

Inc recent tragic death OF Architect White,
who was shot by Harry K. Thaw, attracted
usual attention in Washington because he was
of the firm of architects that made the plans for
the renovation of the old White House and the
construction of the executive Office buildings.
There has always been diversity of opinion as
to whether the expenditures, amounting to about
q quarter of million dollars, In restoring the
White House to it's original design, justified.
In the opinion of those of artistic taste, it was
money we'll spent although the general public does
not appreciate what was done. The original design
of the White House contemplated q terrace on
each side of the main building. This had never
been fully carried out, huge conservatory on
the west, an ugly structure of glass, wood and
iron, taking the place OF the terrace. This was

FROM THIS THE PRESIDENT ESCAPES.

The annual house cleaning is now in progress
at the White House. 1t would require expert
mathematician to figure out just how many
coats of paint, how many yards of plastering and
how much expenditure of money there have been
lavished upon this historic old building Every
year the interior is gone over and every year the
outside is either painted or washed, so that the
wilderness may be retained.
The decorations Of the executive mansion
need careful attention always, and the paint and
enamel work has to be kept clean and free from
all marks and scratches. The multitude of pill
grms who annually visit this building is disposed
to be critical, and if any dirt any DETACHMENT

sure to be something ugly said about it. The

The immigration authorities of the opinion
that unless something is done by treaty or other
wise, the United States will soon be overrun by
this undesirable class In the naturalization law
recently passed, there is restriction on giving
citizenship to anarchists and regulations are now
being formulated to make this effective. That
however, does not prevent anarchists coming to
this country and preaching their doctrine It is
comparatively easy thing for this disorderly
element to obtain admission to this country and
congress will be asked to consider more drastic
regulations regarding them.

DENATURIzED ALCOHOL !.
MOVEMENT.
MOVEMENT.

Representative Watson says the
ways and means cofdmittee, OF which
he is members twill soon report a
bill taking off the tax on denaturized
alcohol. The object Of this bill is
not only to enable our farmers TO
make use of a great many waste pro-
duets from their farms in the manu-
facture of alcohol. but also to afford
a very much cheaper source of pow
err 1t is estimated the removal of the
tax on denaturized alcohol will ena-
BILE the farmers to make some two
hundred million dollars more annu-
ally. The chief opposition to this
proposed bill has been encountered
from the Standard Oil, which sees
clearly not only an end to its present
monopoly of oil, as producer of
light for millions of citizens through
out the country, but also an end to
its monopoly Of gasoline, as the only
fairly cheap motive power for auto
mobiles, and power engines of ev
cry description. Representative
Watson, true to the course he has
consistently pursued throughout his
political career, of legislating for the
benefit not only of his own constitu-
ents, but also for the country at
large, is one of the foremost expo
nents and champions of the untaxed
denaturized alcohol movement, In
the face Of powerful opposition from
the Standard Oil octopus.
