Clothing Made of Paper.

NAAAAAAAAO0ROA4S OOuA AAcl(
For some time past vests have been
made Of paper, also cuffs, collars, shirt
bosoms. ETC., but it has remained for a
firm in Saxony to spin narrow strips
of paper and cotton into finished fab
RIGS of common use. Paper and cot
ton and paper and wool are so COM
bined that good outing jackets, suits,
skirts and many other articles Of dress
wear are now being produced. The
new textile, If so it may be called, is
cream colored and may be washed re-
peatedly without injuring the surface
and is marketed for a ridiculously
small price,. Sufficient xylolin, as it is
called, to produce a complete plain suit
costs 81 to So. The way the boy goes

that paper clothes would not last him
around the corner.

They Need Bailey.

/ Washington, Jan. 23.-The troubles,
in Texas, of Senator Bailey, are also
the troubles of his brother democratic
senator's here, cor his absence has left
them leaderless and the disquieting re-
ports that came from Texas, seriously
affecting Mr.. Bailey's prospects Of re-
turning, made the democrats look
around to see who else could lead them
should the state Of Texas decide to
keep Bailey at home. The difficulty
In choosing new leader is not an en-
'barrassment of riches, but rather one
Of poverty. Hence the quandary.
I'VE prayed hard that Senator Bal
ley be reelected to the senate, and the
prayers of the righteous availed," says
Senator Teller. I'VE simply can not
spare Bailey. He is brilliant man,
a great force in legislation, and a most
able leader"
Bailey has been caught flirting in
company with the kinsfolk of Standard
Oil, which is very abhorrent practice
down in Texas, and so some OF the
people would dismiss their public SER
want. At least q considerable portion
of the politicians would do so. An In
vestigation is on to besmirch the more
the senator's name or to clear it en-
tirely. The scent of it all does not
smell very sweetly up here. It will be
hard to remove clearly the aspersions
that have been cast upon the senator's
character as financier. He will lead
again, but his influence will be some
what impaired.

Progress. Of Anaesthesia.
rChicaeo Chronicle,


Gen. George Rogers Clark, who ought
to have the finest monument in Chicago
instead of being remembered only in
the name of dirty street, suffered in
his old age the amputation Of leg.
Anaesthetics were then unknown, and
to nerve him for the ordeal he had a
drum corps stand at his window and
play" while the operation was per-
formed.
From that day to this there has been
a constant progress in anaesthesia. The
first discovery was nitrous oxide, or
Laughing gas" Then came ether and
then chloroform. OF late years there
have been numerous discoveries in local
anaesthesia. A French physician dis
covered that it could be produced by
fine vibrations. Wonderful results have
been secured with cocaine, the most
wonderful of all being quite recent. It
has been found that by injecting &C.
caine at the base of the spinal column
surgical operations on the lower part
Of the body were rendered painless,
tho the patient retained consciousness,
The latest discovery is that Of DR..
Stephen Leduc, a Persian physician,
who destroys sensibility all over the
body by sending mild alternating cur,
rent Of electricity thru the brain in the
same general manner. as in electrocu-
ton. In this case the patient loses con-,
seriousness, but in every other respect
important advantages are secured
There are no nausea, no weakness and
languor and absolutely no effect on the
heart. The patient becomes conscious
the instant the current is shut off and
with decidedly invigorated sensa-
ton.
Any one can see that anaesthe sia is
going thru the same process inco-
motion, aerostatics and the search fer
the north pole. The human race in all
these cases has set a mark, which 1t is
constantly approaching, and no san BE
person doubts ultimate success.
Final success in anaesthesia means a
painless existence. 1t means that the
agony of toothache, rheumatism and
cancer will be as easily relieved as
thirst,
The mastery of pain must have i'm
portant effects on morals. At present
most religious systems are built on the
doctrine of inevitable suffering and
there is no protection for society
against the lawless and predatory
classes except in the infection Of pain
II, therefore, pain should vanish relig

Pure Air But No Draft.

Keep your thoughts on pure air in

Party at Large Demanded RaiIey's
Return to Congress.

Austin, Tex, Jan. 23.-United States
Senator Joseph, W. Bailey was late
yesterday reelected United States SEN
ator from this state by vote in the
two branches of the state legislature,
Of los to As. In the state senate the
vote was 10 in favor Of Senator Bailey
and 10 against him, and in the lower
house Senator Bailey received SO votes
and 35 were cast against him.
The vote in opposition to Senator
Bailey represented a scattering vote,
cast for Cecil Lyon, the republican
nominee; Governor 7. M. Campbell,
former representative; A. w. Terrell
and other prominent men of the state.
In the house seven members present
did not vote, and two were absent.
The vote necessary to an election is
107 votes, and yesterdays result be-
ing one above the required amount,
thus returns Senator Bailey to the
United States senate for a term OF SIX
years The two houses will meet In
joint session today to caucus the vote.
The opponents of Senator Bailey
made an effort in the house to secure
the adoption of resolution providing
that should the legislature vote unan-
imously for the election of Bailey, the
latter should submit his name to let
the people vote in special primary to
be held within the next thirty days,
for review OF the charges preferred
against him, and that should the re-
suit be adverse to him, he should re-
sign. This proposition was not accept
ed by the friends of Senator Bailey and
its further consideration was voted
down by vote Of 50 to 81. The spe-
cial investigation committee OF the two
branches Of the state legislature are
engaged in considering the charges
against Senator Bailey.

EVANS MAY VISIT COLORADO.
Siste:, of the Great Admiral at Colo
rado Springs Anticipates His
Coming.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Colorado Springs Sunday night says:
Fighting Bob Evans, who sails TO-
morrow in command of the Pacific
bound fleet, will, according TO his pres
ent plans. visit Colorado Springs after
the completion of the cruise around
the Horn. He will come here to visit
his sister, Mrs. B. Zevely Of % East
Columbia street.
Rear Admiral Evans will retire as
vice admiral in August after having
completed the long cruise. He will be
met by his wife in San Francisco and,
according to letter received by his
sister a few days ago in which he out
lined his plans, he expects to return
overland to his home in Washington.
He has promised Mrs. Zevely to stop
in Colorado Springs for a visit if pos
sible. This will bring him here early
in September.
Admiral Evans has been West only
once before and that was on flying
trip in 1901 when he was detailed to
act as one of the judges in court
martial at San Francisco. He passed
through Denver at that time, but did
not come to Colorado Springs. Mrs.
Zcvely went to Denver to meet him.

said that it dates back to his school
days ut Annapolis and also that it WAS
due to varioGs incidents in his later
naval life, but the episode which really
gave him the name Fighting Bob
occurred in Chile about fourteen years
ago. At that time he was sent to

paraiso and representing the United
States government. 1t was at the
time Of an insurreCtion and there had
been some trouble with the marines.
Word was sent to him by the Chilean
government that he would have to sail
within a certain time. He immedi-

language that he would remain where
