Betting on Gray Hairs.


Philip Hymes, Of the United States
steel corporation, and half a dozen
friends went to the Paradise roof gar
den last night and in the intermission
one Of the friends, noting the spot
light on the top Of the steel mans
head, amused himself by pulling out
a long gray hair
said.
I'll give you SO cents for every
gray hair you can find in my head
retorted Mr.. Hymes.
Thereupon his friend pulled out two
more and collected dollar. A strang-
err sitting across the aisle. butted In
at this point with the remark that he
was in on that so cent thing, too, and
grabbed handful of Mr.. Hymes
locks. Whereat Mr.. Hymes, naturally
enough, stood up and batted the
stranger in the face.
Under the direction Of the members
the party adjourned to the street, anG
there the fight speedily resolved itself
into a bet, Mr.. Hymes wagering 500
that the stranger couldn't find three
gray hairs. Then he put his head
under an electric light and submitted
to inspection. The stranger looked
and looked, but the best he could fine
was one.
Mr.. Hymes cashed on the bet, an6
spent the hundred on pink tea fol

MANY WEAR cosrLY FooTeEAR
Enormous Sums Said to Be Spent by
English ArIstocracy.

It would SUI rise most people to
know Of the huge sums which some
of the English aristocracy spend on
shoes, especially on slippers. Only the
other day a countess whose name is
familiar to every one, had pair Of
slippers made which were decorated
in a picture pattern, like a pair Of
worked slippers, with precious stones,
these being largely rubies, cmeralds
and diamonds. The result was exceed
ingly beautiful, but the cost was over
s22, 500.
There is one accomplished workman
in London whose sole occupation is
that Of mounting fancy slippers with
Jewels. The present countess dowager
of Z some years ago had made
her husband was then alive, and gave
the order-a pair of slippers. in which
she was to appear as Cinderella at
fancy dress ball given by the duke OF
Manchester The slippers were one
mass of diamonds, the value of the
stones being considerably over 100000,
while the cost of mounting them was
upward Of $3.50.
A South American gentleman not
long since presented to a foreign sing
er. then in London. pair Of slippers
ornamented with two butterflies OF
different patterns in precious stones,
the cost being nearly $4,000. But in
realty it is quite a common thing for
slippers Srnamented with gold threads
and Jewels. and valued at from S. to
IS. 900. to be supplied. and many brides
on their honeymoon are furnished
with even ordinary boots, shoes and
slippers to the value Of $1,000 or SO.

GARDNER WOULD FORCE VOTE
Plans to Bring immigration Educa-
tional Test Before House.
Resolution HnVinE That End in View
Is NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Committee
VIII Not Report II.

Representative Gardner. of Massachu-
sets. introduced resolution yesterday
which he believes will pave the way to
the passage by the House Of the immi-
grafton bill. with the education test
clause included. The resolution provides
that on its adoption the following mo-
ton shall be highly privileged, to-wit
That the order heretofore made request
ing a conference with the Senate on the
the immigration bill be rescinded; that
the conferees heretofore appointed on the
part of the House be discharged from
further duty; that the House recede from
its amendment, and that after two hours
debate on said motion (Which shall not be
divided the vote shall be taken at once
without intervening motion"
1t is on the educational test that the
Senate and House conferees are In dis
agreement The House conferees have re
fused to sign the conference report. the
Senate conferees are insisting on the ed
vocational test, and deadlock has oc-
CURED.
If the House conferees signed a dis
agreement il would bring the matter be-
fore the House for action, and a yea-and-
nay vote could be obtained on the edu-
cationaI test Inasmuch as Representa-
tives Bennett and Rupert. of the House
.conferees, are against the educational
test. ii is thought that the proposed
course is the only one which viii help
them out Of their difficulty
There is only one case on record on
which conferees have refused 10 sign a
disagreement. In this instance il was
maintained in the Senate that the House
conferees were in contempt. Finally the
papers We're withdrawn from the Senate
and the House conferees gave in.
As the Speaker is supporting the House
conferees in this attitude. the resolution
introduced by Mr.. Gardner is an uneX
pected step IN the campaign to obtain q
record vote on his proposition.
A successful elimination of his scheme
is improbable. The Committee on Rule:
undoubtedly viii refuse to report the res
Olution. With the House conferees main,
tanning their present position, it probably
will follow that the Senate viii declare
the House conferees to be in contempt OF
their own body. When this is done, Mr.
Gardner, as a matter of the highest per
sonal privilege, viii be able 70 bring up
privileged resolution in the House for The
discharge of the conferees, and the oppO,
nents Of the immigration bill cannot ther
avoid a roll call on the educational test
Mr. Gardner believes that the Senate edu.
cational test may be finally accepted by
the House.

LODGE SMOKED----AND SMOKED
Pages Tried to Stop Him, but Failed
IngloriOusly.
Massachusetts Stntesman's Tnin-
Rules Causes FURRY.

Another secret Of executive sessions is
out. Senators smoke behind closed
doors.
When the Senate took down the bars
yesterday after a brief secret session,
the assistant sergeaEt-at-arms and pages
were kept busy for 1T least I'VE minutes
warning Senators that they were trans
crossing the rules against smoking in the
open sessions Of the Senate. When the
doors were closed for the executive ses-
sion a dozen Senators lighted cigars. cX-
pecting that an adjournment would fol-
low without reopening the doors.
Then an announcement was made that
the House had adjourned our Of respect
10 the late Representative FIack. and it
became necessary for the Senate TO take
the same action.
Doors were reopened. but the cigars
were not all laid aside Assistant Ser
geant-at-Arms Layton succeeded in ban
ishing every cigar from the Senate except
Senator Lodges. which unconscioUsly de-
fed authority while the Senator from
Massachusetts was moving about among
his colleagues in a preoccupicd way.
The assistant sergeant-at-drms and his
pages created much hilarity by their ef-
forts to lasso Mr. Lodges weed. They
would plant themselves squarely in front
OF him 10 attract his attention. but the
Massachusetts Senator was evidently not
a hypnotic subject He failed 10 see them.
He would suddenly shift his position on
turn around. and then Mr.. Layton and
his scouts would shift again. and again
line up at present arms" But Mr
Lodge smoked on. The open session Was
soon over. and Mr.. Lodge. his cigar still
firmly planted between his teeth, marched
out Unmindful that he had created such
futter by his unattended defiance OF
Senate rules.
The regulation against smoking was
adopted some years ago at the suggestion
Of the late Senator ingalls,. Of Kansas
The Kansas Senator complained one day
that smoke Was being waited into the
chamber from the corridors OF cloak
rooms. Other Senator's Joined him IN pro-
test. The r8le was passed. Later it de
veloped that the smoke came from burn
ing waste near the Capitol and the wind
carried it into the building. When it
reached the OlfactorieS of Mr.. ingalls,. il
reminded him OF a Kansas cigar. But the
discovery of the mistake did not abate
the rule
