BARS VETERANS CANTEEN.
House Passes Restriction After Tawney
Offers Milwaukee Soldiers Home as
Argument Against the Bill

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 25.-Thc
House passed the sundry civil bill, with
an amendment providing that no bar or
canteen where intoxicating liquor is sold
shall be maintained i'll national soldiers
homes.
Mr.. Tawncy of Minnesota, in opening
the debate on the canteen amendment,
said that twenty new saloons had been
erected around the Soldiers home in
Milwaukee in anticipation of the law
closing the Canteen going into effect
March 4. He said that the management
of every National Soldiers home in the
country had asked that the canteen be
restored in the interest of temperance
j. SlOat Fassett of New York said
the issue was not rum or no rum, but Il
questions of morals, and declared that
1T is our business to see to it that these
defenders of the nation shall have the
comforts to which they are entitled; that
their closing days are surrounded with
the things they need and the things they
want. Let us be true to ourselves and
to them by restoring the cantcen."
Messrs. Often and Stafford took the
position that the Canteen was i'll the in
terest of temperance and that it's aboli-
ton would send the men to the low sa
looms on the outside. Mr.. Often read
the Catholic church, Bishop Webb of
the Episcopal church. Col. A. G.. Weis-
sert Gen. II. G. Winkler and others, in
Icluding the judges and law officers Of
! milwaukee, who testified that the re
itentiOn of the cantaen was in the il !
Iterest Of sobriety and discipline among
the old soldiers.

NOVEL CURES FOR SNORING
Case of Offending Policeman Sug-
Eests Remedies for Disease

Case of Offending Policeman Sug-
gests Remedies for Disease.
Very III ny of our readers will be
interested al the ultimate fate of the
unfortunate snoring policeman who has
been banished from his fellow sleepers
and Gagged at night in souud-proof quar-
tiers. Perhaps the dreadful infirmity,
now that it has the official recognition
of his superiors, may call for some
suitable scientific treatment. If so the
great army of snorers can covertly
watch the outcome with all the cunning
and complacency Of undiscovered trans
gressors.
We are glad we can make the start
with a perfectly fair case. for convic-
ton Of the nuisance Is always most diff
ficult to obtain. The cuiprit must be
caught with the snore on him and in
the presence of reliable ear witnesses
No one has ever been known to ac-
knowledge his fault coluntarily. On
the contrary, one of the surest signs of
the confirmed malay is his persistent
denial of its existence lie is not salts
fed to plead lack of premeditation and
absence of accountability, but openly
impugns the motives of his clamorous
accusers. The worst of it is that on all
other matters he is perfectly reason
able. This makes it extremely diff
cult TO obtain his consent for treatment
of any sort
We speak now Of snorers as a class.
The only easy way is 10 tackle them
when they cannot resist. There are
various approved methods not only in
genious but effective for temporarily
arresting the soncrous, rasping and vi
brating respiratory spasms. The most
popular, perhaps, is the elbow thrust
In the ribs. Next comes the gentle
pinch of the nose, whereby part Of the
wind current Is shut of. Some have ad-
yIsed that the nose be clasped by 4
clothespin even before retiring, but IN
fortunately the subject Of the expert
ment almost invariably demurs Others
have recommended sitting on the chest,
but this is rather hazardous procede-
Ing for both parties, and so also is a
temporary twist of the WIndpipe, IN

ROOSEVELT SAFELY HOME
HAS Bomb Scare Which Is Comedy; a

! WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 25.-
president Roosevelt has arrived safely
after his Harvard trip. 1t was marked
Iby bomb scare, the injury of a Boston
detective at the hands of one of the
Presidents guards and a story of a snub

scared guards. Detectives pounced on
(the middle aged man who threw it, but
released him and looked sheepish when
some one mustered courage to open the
ibag and draw from it his gift of an
/ American flag.
The Boston police detectives who
guarded the President in his trips about
! Boston and Cambridge, gave Il little din
ner party. After they had eaten and
drank the party fell to telling stories,
and this led to Il little discussion of how

accidentally discharged it. The bullet
plowed across the forehead Of Walter a.

PACKERS FICTION AGAIN.
Beveridge Amendment Providing That
They Pay for Inspection Starts
Warm Tilt in Senate.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. %
When the agricultural appropriation bill
was taken up in the Senate today, an
amendment providing that no forest re-
serves shall hereafter be created or en-
larged without an act of Congress in
Oregon, Washington. Idaho, Montana,
Colorado and Wyoming, was adopted
The amendment adding $1,0O00OO for
improvements i'll forest reserves also was
adopted.
Senator Beveridge's amendment pro-
viding that hereafter the date of inspec-
ton and canning must be placed on the
label OF meat products, was agreed to
without discussion. Mr.. Beveridge then
offered his amendment placing the cost
of meat inspection ON the packers. Mr.
Warren gave notice that at the proper
time he should make Il point of order
against this amendment.
Senator Gallinger remarked that he
hoped if Mr.. Beverage was defeated to-
day, he would bring the question before
the Senate in a special bill early in the
next Congress. And we will fight this
matter to the finish,' he added.
The agricultural bill was passed by the
Senate late in the afternoon.

Virtues in Various Gems.

There is hardly precious stone that
has not some superstition connected
with it. The Neapolitans will wear
amuIets of coral to avert the evil eye,
and perhaps some will remember wear
ing a string Of amber beads about their
necks during their childhood to ward
off sore throats \ piece of agate worn
or the person is supposed to be an in
fallible guard against lightning and
some persons have asserted that it was
a cure for thirst-what kind they did
not mention,
The beryl was by the ancients sup
posed TO be q sure cure for leproSy and
to promote happiness between man and
wife. Turquoise is said to be protec-
ton against falls and sudden injuries
The topaz was highly priced by the an
clients, who believed that it had magi-
cal powers Of dispelling entertainments
and calming frenzy.
The sapphire was believed by the an
clients to be emblematic of chastity.
The pagans dedicated it to Apollo. The
green emerald Is held in highest es-
TEEN by the Peruvians and the wor-
shippers of Mantu still believe that the
mines whence are extracted all ener-
aids are guarded by terrible genii and
dragons.
Perhaps more superstition attaches
itself to the opal nowadays than to any
other stone. On the contrary, the an
clients considered that this Horv oo,,,
had the power Of rendering its owner
lovable and also Of bestowing on him
the gift of invisibility.
