in >the Senate. The epecial election VIII
be leld on January 30th, and Major FL
a. Edmondson. former House member,
viii likely be chosen. The Republicans
have twelve members in the House ard
six in the Senate, and the Democrats
all the rest.
Governor Montague has prepared his
message 10 the law-makers. and while
he is not discussing its contents. it is
understood 30 be concise and full OF tritc
: suggestions. It is understood to be of
. medium length.
There will be many familiar faces III

Phlegar, Mann. Keezell. Hobbs. Stands.

Major Green and DR. Powell are two
of the most picturesque figures on the
House side, and there are none who
have more warm friends among their
colleagues. or In the newspaper fraternity.
Maj. Green finds his greatest enjoyment
IN smoking his pipe during long debates,
and admiring Houdons splendid statue
OF Washington.
DR.. Powell Is the decided humorist of
the House. since Mai Edmonson did not
return to the body. II was nip and tuck
which should bear the palms in this
line, when they served together Now
that Nal Tsdmondson is coming to the
Senate things are going to be kept very
lively in either wing of the beautiful
building.
Tire hotel lotbics are already beginning
to fill with numbers of political leaders.

HOLDS TOURS.
Depredations by Cuban Ex-Rebels
Causes General Bells Order.

HAVANA. Oct. 21.-As n result OF
continued depredations by numerous
small bands of eX-insurgents in Santa
Clara province, Brigadier General J.
Franklin Bell has ordered the Eff
teenth cavalry, which is stationed at
Placetas, to occupy the towns of Santa
Clara, Esperanza, Cienfuegos, Cruces
and Santoy Domingo, taking the places
of the rural guard garrisons. which
will then be released to pursue and
scatter the maraUders.
This pressing into service of the rural
guards is in accordance with Governor
Magoon's policy not to use American
troops in the suppression of disorders.
For the purpose of relieving the dis
tress of the small planters in the
province of Pinar del Rio caused by
the recent cyclone. Governor Magoon
authorized the free distribution of 1,00G
pounds of Tobacco seed.
Governor Magoon has decided that
Secretary of War Taft's decree giving
admission duty free to material for the
army, naval and marine corps does not
apply to supplies for post exchanges.

BEGGAR WANTED MONEY
AS WELL AS FOOD.

A beggar called at Patrolman Niels
Tomesen's home at "a Kirkland place
last night, and asked for something
TO eat. The policeman could not re-
fuse and the fellow was given a
hearty meal. Instead of expressing
his gratitude the beggar asked for
some money in an uncermonious way.
Thinking this too much of an i'm
position, the patrolman placed the
fellow under arrest and lodged him
in a cell at the police station, where
he spent the night. When arraigned
before Recorder Pickersgill this
morning, he said his name was John
Williams and that he was trying to
get to Boston. He denied asking the
policeman for money, but admitted
begging for food. Williams, when
arrested, had in his possession Il
dozen tin cooking forks, SO cents in
money and a large potato bag. He
said the bag was to cover up his feet
when he slept out of doors, as they
easily caught cold. AS the fellow was
when arrested, and was willing
TO leave town at once, the recorder
discharged him.

FOR THE

FEEDING children between meals is
q poor practice and should not be
permitted at home, and the children
should be taught to accept nothing
away from home.
The busy mother should have her
time Of rest and quiet during the day
as well as the little ones, and it
might be well to plan to take it when
they are having theirs.
IF you are not pretty you can be
attractive and charming by culti-
vating a pleasant expression, by hay-
ing a cheerful disposition and by
training your body to symmetry and
sracefulness.
II soap has a c%oarsening effect
upon the skin it would be well to use
1t but once a week, using a good cold
cream to remove the dust and dirt
from the face. Follow the massage
with a bath in tepid water and then
apply cold water to tone the skin.

:0Id Line State Fight.

BALTIMORE, Get. 27.-The prlnclp"'
meeting incidental to the current ne
publican congressional campaign Ill this
state, held at the Lyric last night, was
made notable by the presence OF l"o
cabinet officers, Secretary OF War ant
and Secretary of the Navy BohalHlrte'
Both the secretaries We're very warm
ly greeted by the audience that crown
ed the Lyric, the reception accorded
Secretary Taft amounting to an oVa-
ton.
In opening the meeting Secretary 30
naparte spoke briefly. He denouhced
he Democratic party vigorously de-
claring that it was a party of no prm-
ciples and no policy except to get ana
keep office no matter how.
Anything to VIM has been its motto
for forty years, and what it has been
for two generations it is today. 1t has
nominated Hearst for governor OF New
York just as thirty-four years ago 1t
nominated Greeley for president of the
United States, although it must be
noted that Greeley was personally Il
respectable man..
1t tried a "sane and safe candidate
in 1904 only because it had been beat
en- with one not called sane" or safe
in 1900 and four years previously, and
as it was beaten even worse when 1t
tried sanity and safety it is apparently
getting ready to try something yet
More insane and yet more unsafe in
1908.
Shall such a party, he asked, be given
control of the next house. with the
power to defeat, obstruct and embar-
rasSall the measures which may be adj
vised by the president in the last two
years of his term to cure evils incident
to our national prosperity without
biighting that prosperity itself?
Secretary Bonaparte concluded by in
Producing Secretary Taft as one who
could speak with far greater author
ity" than himself.
Secretary Taft addressed himself to
current national issues viewed in the
light of the work of the last congress.

New Laws issued.

TRENTON, Oct. 27.-The session
laws of the both Legislature, en-
acted last winter, were issued in PAM
phlet form yesterday. Bound copies
are being prepared and will be ready
for Issuance in about two weeks.
The circulation of the laws are
somewhat later this year than usual,
piainly because of the fact that a spe-
cial session of the legislature to take
up the question of the pollution of
the Passaic river was proposed, and
it was the intention of the authorities
having the matter in hand to incor-
porate any enactment of such a ses-
sion in the regular volume.
1t was not until a few wees ago
that the plan for this special session
was abandoned.
