Cannon BIames Weather Bureau

WASHINGTON, May 9. - Speaker Cannon has cold. Its all due to tho confounded measley weather that those fellows up in the bureau have handed out" he said. If this is the best they can do I guess we will have to cut their appropriation next season. What Is the use of giving 'em money if all we get is seventeen changes every hour and a sneeze every two minutes. I used to boast about never knowing sickness, but I'm no match for this damnable weather.

of all this she got letter from Abe
 Hummel. He said he knew police de-
 tectives had been ordered to run her
 down; that they were after her past
 life. He suggested that he was just
 the gentleman to serve her in such a
 2redicament and practically offered to
 call off the police detectives and be
 her attorney. Knowing what she did

 Captain William F. Mclaughlin, for.
 mer police inspector and head of the
 detective bureau, has sent in his resig-
 nation to Commissioner Bingham. Captain Mclaughlin is admittedly
 one of the most brilliant officers that
 the New York police department has had, and his thirty-nine years of serv- Ice have been crowded with stirring events, one of which landed him a prisoner in the Tombs. He retired from the force at midnight last night.
 It is conceded that as a result of tho Investigation of the Gould case, as con. ducted by Deputy Commissioner Han- son. the system of graft in the detec- tive bureau by which certain policemen have become enormously rich as the result of using their official position to further the ends of members of yari. ous wealthy families of this city has been uncovered and that it will be stamped out completely.
 A high police official declared that the system had practically wrecked the de- tective department, which at the time of reorganization by General Bingham was fin a condition of chaos. This sys. tem," said the official, has been in ex. lstence for many years and has been the means of sapplng all the honesty that may have been in the bureau.

 W. W. F.-What country was first to appropriate the use and value on the initiative and referendum prin- ciple in government? As this is
 quite an interesting subject and is to become more so in this country,
 won't you kindly give us the history
 and better knowledge of its mean ing?
 Al am not sure whether Swift
 zerland or New Zealand was the
 first to adopt. Switzerland adopted
 a federal constitution in 1874 of
 which the referendum is a part. If
 demanded by eight of its 22 cantons,
 or 3O.0OO voters, any federal meas
 ure may be submitted to popular vote. The initiative gives voters the power to initiate the framing of
 laws by legislative bodies by petition. The referendum gives voters the right to pass on laws which have been enacted by the legislature. In this country the idea is considerably dis cussed, but little real progress has been made.

 A.-The name is not recalled. Some clue should be given to work on, since name indicates little. CD The Connecticut, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Hampshire and Yer mont each have the heaviest dis placement, 16,000 tons. The Geor- gia and Virginia have the greatest horse power, 19,000 Each carries about seventy-five guns of various sizes. (3) It would take a wise man to do that. Ridpath, the historian, assumes that there are at least three lines of race life touching the west shore of America in prehistoric times from Asia and oceanica, the first being the orarians who entered AL aska; the second came by way of the Sandwich islands. In each case the dispersion was almost uniformly in 2 southeast direction. (4) Septem- Der 23, fond of music, elegant sur happy and agreeable, make good critics.
