either bald, with a decided tendency
to adipose tissue, or else Of pale
sandy type, with equally pale eyes
and a retreating chin. In ordinary
life he wears spectacles, which at the
request of the bride he discards at
his wedding, with the result that he
stumbles over the last step leading
from the chancel to the altar aisles,
and is only saved from falling fiat on
his face by desperately clutching at
the brides bouquet-Ladies Field.

AMENDMENTS

Washington, Mar. is Governor
w. N. o Dawson, of West Virginia,
is in Washington to take up several
matters relating to the railroads Of
West Virginia with the census office.
He discussed various matters with
Senator Ellins and Senator Scott
yesterday.
Governor Dawson, in speaking Of
the railroad situation in West Vir-
ginia, said that he docs not think
that the Hepburn rate bill reaches
the peculiar conditions which obtain
jim West Virginia.
"We have peculiar conditions I'M
West Virginia, said be, "and we
need legislation to reach them, /
thing that the amendments which
Senator Elbins has introduced would
if enacted into law, provide an ade-
quate remedy for the evils that exist
in West Virginia"
It was suggested to him that the
claim had been made that the Elkins
amendment would be held unconsti-
tutional.
@oh, yes, it is easy to make
claims, but the courts do not hold
every law unconstitutional which its
opponents have declared to be so.
Governor Dawson showed plainly
that he is in sympathy with Senator
Elkins in his effort TO amend the
Hepburn bill so as to afford a rem
edy for the abuses discussed in his
famous letter to Senator Tillnnn.
