Chamberlain's Cough Remedy the
Best Made.

BeBG NIHUe,
sin my opinion ChamberlaiD's
Cough Remedy Is the best made for
colds" says Mrs. Cora Walker of Por-
terville, California. There is no
doubt about its being the best. No
other will cure cold so quickly. No
other is SO sure preventive Of pneu-
monia. No other is so pleasant and
safe to take. These are good reasons
why it should be preferred to any
ther. The fact is that few people
are satisfied with any other after
having once used this remedy. For

In a discussion in the Senate few
days ago over the question Of proper
clerical assistance for Senators, an
argument incidentally arose in which
the duty Of Senators to their constit-
uents was entered into by Senators
Bailey, Daniels, Lodge, Hepburn,
Spooner, Bacon. and others. In the
course of the discussion Senator Bail
ey made the following statement:
"The Government is touching the
people atso many different places, l
regret to say, that the correspondence
of a Senator is today perhaps five
times what 1t was in the days to
which Senator Hale refers. The
truth Of it is the correspondence OF a
Senator has become the burden of
Senator's life, and the task Of writing
thirty or forty, and sometimes dfty
letters is an almost daily one with us.
Writing those letters for a thousand
years would not add cubft TO a
mans intellectual stature"
In reply to Senator Bailey's remarks
Senator Hepburn clearly and forcibly
set forth his views on the question in
the following words: "It has been
stated here that it would be desirable
could each Senator be rid of what has
been termed the encumbrancn Of
correspondence incident to his posi-
tion. / do not think that that is
just in the right spirit In which to
regard this question. We are here to
represent the people and they are en-
titled to be answered. For one, l
like to see the people come close
| enough to the Government and be
interested enough "a the performances
of their duties as citizens and our
duties as their representatives to
communicate with US. They are en-
| ii tied to it and | do not begrudge IT
at all. I am perfectly willing to
answer every letter that comes and to
perform all of the little duties in the
way of Accommodations that are Incl
dent to the holding of the position. y

"The Duke of KilIicrankie."

For the second week of the spring and
summer season at the Columbia the attrac
ton to be presented by Guy Standing and
the Columbia Theater Company will be
Capt Robert MarshaIrs comedy romance,
THE Duke of Killcrankie," which is SINH
lar TO the old classical comedies. Some
thing Of the popularity of THE Duke OF
KiIlicrankie" may be gathered from the
fact that it has not only been played the
longest engagement of any piece at the En-
pire Theater, in New York. but 1t had
long run in London, where It was first pro-
duced by Charles Frohman's English com
pany. THE Duke OF Killicrankie'' Is
comedy romance in three acts. redolent
with the atmosphere of London fashionable
life and admire bly, hits off the foibles and
set. 1t Is unusually popular in its appeal;
it's characters illustrate English types
whose absurdities strike the gallery as fore
IDLY as the the box; Its wit and humor, for
an English piece, is wonderfully American,
scarcely a speech being without a happy
stroke of the genuine comedy, and Its prin
cipal theme, that of the persistent love OF
the Duke of KiIlicrankie for Lady Hen
rietta Addison, is delightfully."- romantic.
The plot centers around the young, eccen-
trio duke, who. after three unsuccessful
proposals. has decoyed the beautiful Lady
Addison to his Scottish castle, entangling
in the same trap Mrs. Mulholland, the
GLUE Kings" widow, as chaperon, and Mr..
dukes strategy and the defeat of his plans
by the lady's own cleverness are all charm
ingly suspended in solution until the last

REFERRED TO COUNSEL.
Points Raised Regarding the EN-
balming of Bodies.

After a conversation yesterday with
John r. Wright, who is secretary of the

sioner mcfarland has requested the opin-
ion of the corporation counsel upon ques-
lions relating to the present procedure IN
embalming bodies that are to be transport
ed to other Jurisdictions Mr.. Wright ask
ed particularly concerning the power lying
In the District health officer to prescribe
conditions which must obtain before per
nit is granted for removal of a body from
the city, suggesting that there is now no
act of Congress nor a regulation or the
Commissioners in which the method of pre-
pairing a body for shipment is defined. 10
certain extent all undertakers are guided
by the requirements OF the railroads. which
are quite strict and by the requirements of
the different states, and the Funeral Di-
rectors' Association contends that, without
law or regulation to sustain him. the health
officer has not the right to enforce require
ments of his own making.
Another matter which Mr.. Wright
brought up for discussion concerned the
being expressed that undertaken should
balm a body.
Both matters were reerred to the cor
poration counsel and beside giving an opin-
inon on the legal points involved 1t Is prob
able that he will be asked to pass upon the

Heard by Commissioners.

At hearing before the Commissioners
yesterday former Senator John NJ Thurston.
Robinson White and other speakers argued
for an unfavorable report by the Commits
sioners upon Senate bill 1916. which pro-
poses making the accepting of -usury In the
District Of Columbia a criminal offenss Mr..
Thurston explained that In his long career
In the Legislative business it had been
demonstrated repeatedly to his satisfaction
that 1t is best to let every man work out
his own salvation.
"I would regard II as a step backward
II the specification In this bill making the
taking of usury a criminal offense should
be enacted into la@. he said Some states
believe the absence of any law on the sub
teet works best, but the requirement gener-
ally Is that only the original debt must be
repaid. As a rule. the man who loans
without security Is relying solely upon the
honor of the borrower TO make the pay
ments promised, and 1t Is the additional
and receives more than the usual rates or
interest.
Both Mr.. Thurston and Mr.. White con-
ter,ded that the enactment of such a statute
would drive out OF business all the class
of money loan men who might be termed
the reputable brokers and that there Would
succeed q more undesirable class, VINO
would extort much heavier interest for the
chance they must always take of being
that the enactment of any such drastic OH
would drive out of the city a great amount
