KNIFE FLASHED
AS LIE PASSED
Exciting Scene Between
Members On the Floor
Of the House.
FRIENDS QUICKLY INTERFERE
Affair Between Representatives Bart
lett and Southwick Causes
Uproar.

Tho lie passed. the flash of a knife.
two enraged Congressman. the House Of
Representatives in confusion paying no
heed to the incessant thunder of the
Speakers gavel-and nobody hurt.
This was the intensely dramatic scene
enacted on the floor of the House late
last night when Representative Bartlett
of Georgia, who figured prominently in
Congress several years ago in a book
11inging contest, became infuriated by
Representative Southwick of New York.
and squared himself for a personal en-
counter, his uplifted hand grasping a
pocket knife.
Mr.. Southwick was game for the fray
and was going straight after the
Georgian when friends of the two mem
bers intervened, and averted what
might have been a serious ARRAY.
1t all came from the fact that Mr..
Bartlett opposed a resolution called up
by Mr. Southwick to raise the salaries
Of three tally clerks. While the Georgian
was making his objecting speech, he
gradually retreated entirely from the
Democratic side and went to the Re
publican seats in an effort to escape the
Interruptions Of the New Yorker.
Followed Across Aisle.
Mr.. Southwick, however, was hot on
the trail, and he followed Mr.. Bartlett
like a shadow, finally breaking in with
the fat remark:
There has been too much lying about
this resolution
Immediately the Speakers gavel
struck the desk with a resoundfng
whack. From all parts of the chamber
came cries for order and above the
general hubbub Of confusion rang the
voice Of the Speaker in long sustained
shouts of The House viii be in orderi''
Toward the place where the two men
stood there surged an ever-growing
throng of the friends of both.
But Mr.. Bartlett waited for no new
comers and was deaf TO the thunder of
the gavel and the call Of the Speaker.
He made some reply to Mr.. Southwick's
remark about too much lying" his
words, however, not being audible to
those in the galleries. He explained
afterwards that he had told Southwiclz
he would hurt him if SOuthwick said
he. Bartlett, lied.
Mutual Friends Interfere.
Southwick advanced toward Bartlett
1t was at this moment that mutual
friends threw themselves into the
breach, separating the two now
thoroughly angered Congressman and
taking them TO different parts of the
chamber. Southwick, however did not
so until he had shouted out, above the
din Of the Speakers gavel, that he had
meant nothing personal by his remark
Later Mr. Bartlett explained that he
did not draw knife on Mr.. Southwicl1.
but happened to have it in his hand

CURED.
Earlier in the evening Mr. Southwick
had pestered Champ Clark with inter-
ruptions until he had been led away
by the big "Ollie" James of Kentucky.

MENTAL AT TlTUDE.
1t Has Much to DO With Winning
Success In Life.

The mental attitude which we al
ways hold toward out work or our aim
has everything to do with what we
may accomplish. Ii you so to your
work With the attitude OF slave who
goes lashed to his task and see in it
only Grudgery; if YOU worA without
hope, seeing no future in what you are
doing beyond getting 4 bare living; if
YOU see no light ahead, nothing but
poverty. deprivation and hard work
all Your life; if YOU think that you
were destined TO such 4 hard life, you
cannot expect anything else than that
which You look for.
If, on the other hand. no matter how
poor you may be today. You can see a
better future; if you believe that some
Gay you are going to rise out Of hum
up out OF the basement Of life into the
drawing room. where beauty, comfort
and JOY await YOU; if your ambition is
clean cut and you keep your eye stead
ily upon the goal which you hope to
reach and feel confident that you have
the ability to attain it. you will accom-
plish something worth while. The di-
rection Of your effort will follow your
eye II that looks up as well as on,
you will climb.
That one quality Of holding persist
emily the faith in themselves and nev-
er allowing anything to weaken the be-
lief that somehow they would accom-
plish what they undertook has been the
underlying principle OF all great
achievers. The great majority Of men
and women who have given civilization
q great upiift started poor and for
many dark years saw no hope Of ac-
complishing their ambition, but they
kept on working and believing that
somehow q way would be opened.
Think Of What this attitude Of hopeful
ness and faith has done for the worlds
great inventors j how most Of them
plodded on through many years Of dry,
dreary drudgery before the light came.
and the light would never have come
but for their faith. hope and persistent
cnGeavor
What if they had listened to their
advisers. Even those who loved them
tried TO beg them to give up the fool
iShness of coming their lives into that
which would never be practical or use
ful We are enjoying today thousands
Of blessings. comforts and conveniences
which have been bequeathed us by
those resolute souls who were obliged
often to turn a deaf ear to the plead
ings of those they loved best as they
struggled on amid want and woe for
many years.-Success.

a STORM IN THE JUNGLE.
1t Comes With a Roar Like That of
Giant Waterfall.

People who have never been IN
jungle talk of the sky as a painter
talks Of the horizon or seafarins man
of the oting-as if when you wanted
to see it you only need use your eyes.
But in the jungle you don't see the
sky-at least you only see D few scrag-
gy patches Of it overhead through the
openings in the twigs and leaves. Nei-
ther do you feel tie wind bolwing, nor
get burned OF dazZled by the sun, nor
even see that luminary except by no
mentary glimpses about midday, from
which it follows that jungle man does
not usually pretend to be weatherwise.
If he does he is even @ greater hum
bug than the rest Of the weather proph-
cts. On the afternoon about which we
are speaking I remember setting forth
on my walk in the still glow Of the
tropical calm and wondering rather at
the intense stiffness Of the surrounding
forest. Then the air grew cooler and
the green Of the foliage in front seemed
to deepen, and presently there was a
sound as Of giant waterfall in the
distance. Waterfalls do not, however,
grow louder every second, whereas the
noise in front did so. Then there was
q loud, angry grow!, as Of q dozen
lions. \ minute more and the whole
jungle began to roar as if fifty squad
rons of heavy cavalry were coming up
at q gallop Then came drop of rain
and i peal Of thunder which seemed to
make the world stop.
Then the storm began. The sky
above darkened the trees clattered;
the brushwood beneath Kissed and bow
ed itself. A deluge Of raindrops blot
ted out the narrow view Down it
came, soaking through the densest
leaves under which one fed for refuge,
striking the grass and sand with mil
lions Of dull thuds, dashing furiously
against the leaves as if they We're so
many hostile shields, streaking the air
with innumerable perpendicular lines
and hurting itself down with the force
Of bullets.
In such a downpour one may as well
walk and get wet as stand still and get
wet. Unfortunately one did not know
where to walk to. The "circumbendi-.
bus system" presupposes the fact that
the wagon wheels and bullock. tracks
can be seen and noted, but when ths.
cart track is no longer cart track, but
"all turned to rushing waters" such
tracks cannot be seen, and unless you
have a pocket compass you may as
we'll try to fly as to get back to where
you came FROM When one reads Of
travellers lost In the backwoods, they
always steer by the sun-and probably
very badly-but when there is no sun
what are you to do?-Siam Press.

To Mako 4 Canary Sing.

Generally any kind Of soft, sibliant
noise Will tempt a bird to sing. a ca
nary hung in a kitchen will usually
start bis song If he hears. say, the friz-
zling Of q frying pan. We utilize spe-
ctal. devices to tempt the shy singer,
who Is perhaps rendered the more bash
full by finding himself in novel sur
roundings. For this purpose we en-
ploy whistles and song organs, which
artifcially reproduce the tours" Of the
roller. This latter method IS found to
be irresistible when all other plans have
failed. The bird feels apparently that
he is being challenged and forthwith
responds to the challenge by pouring
forth the best Of his song. - London

The Right Idea.

One would think the Laxative idea
in a cough syrup should have beea ad-
vanced long before it was. 1t seems
the only rational remedy for Coughs
and Colds would be TO move the bowels
ard clean the mucous membranes Of
the throat and lungs at the same time.
Kenne6y's Laxative Honey and Tar
does this. It is the Original Laxative
Cough Syrup. the best known remedy
for Coughs, Colds, Group. Whooping
Cough, etc. Taste good and harmless.
