The story, as told by Chief Wilkie in

After asking them some questions ne
would tell the applicants that 1t was
necessary to have their measurements on
file, and that it was his duty to do the
measuring. The girls were invited to step
into an adjoining room, partly disrooe
and allow Capt. Marshall" to apply the
tape measure Some demurred at this,
but the majority allowed the bogus secret
service man to take their measurements.
1t happened that one girl confided In
her boarding house landlady. This wo-
man at once wrote to Chief Wilkie tell
ing him the facts. Secret Service Agent

was granted. While the Captain" sat
in the paror under a dim light holding
the hands of the young woman he had
found physically perfect" Agent Flynn
was concealed behind piano.
The girl had been given list Of ques-
tions about the secret service to ask

Stage

Prof. William Windsor, exponent of
vitosophy, last night placed seven young
couples on the Blanchard hall stage in the
order of companionship which the teach
ings of his school prompted as best fur
nishing an object lesson on How to be
happy though married.
The great trouble nowadays with sue

in their homes or in their business Then
he showed why.

were in to show you which persons should

he later rearranged the couples and In
two minutes all were on the best OF
terms-judged by the smiles on their
faces.
DIR. Windsor announced that he had
prepared three lectures in advance of
organizing his next series of classes for
his college here and later Tor the other
college in Boston
His arguments were in the line of separ-
ating magnetic and electric individuali-
ties so that preferably opposites should
mate, though this is not absolutely es-
sential If these types lived in suitable
climate, he said.
Some men," he said, "are like ferry

mony as of all domestic relations" said
the doctor, sis found in a knowledge Of
character. Vitosophy is the science of
the wise way of living founded upon
genetics, which teaches what character
is; phrenology, which teaches how to
read it, and ethics, which shows what
to do with it,"
DIR. Windsor introduced a number OF
portraits showing the different forms Of
temperament, quality and cranial devel-
opment
At the conclusion of the lecture he
ated by the audience, describing their
characters with minuteness. Then he
called for women volunteers and seven
were taken upon the stage and told their
strong and weak points of character.
Then the men were given chance
and there was a rush for the stage.

have lust completed their organization
and have met only once for practlce'
While many of the men taking part are
star football players, they know little
of tha English game, and the playing
against the Stanford team may be a
little ragged. Stanford has had the ad-
vantage of several weeks practice and
has a little better grasp on the prin-
ciples of the game.
The Los Angeles squad intends to put
in considerable time at good hard prac-
tice between now and the time OF the
game. Besides meeting Sundays they
will meet evenings for light practice.

CURRENCY MEETING
House Committee Discusses
Financial Situation.
WILL DRAFT A BILL

Subcommittee Named to Frame Cur.
rency Measure to Correct Present
Financial Situatlon-EIasticlty Also
Discussed.
Washington. Dec. 5.-The newly ap.
pointed house committee on banking
and currency held its first meeting.
spending two and onehalf hours In
discussing the currency question III
several of its phases. At the conclu-
sion OF the meeting several OF the
members stated that as a result OF the
conference the members OF the com
mittee were now nearer together than
they ever had been before.
The only definite action taken at
this initial meeting was the author.z-
ing of the chair TO appoint a sub-com
mittee of five to draft and submit a
currency bill to correct the present
financial situation. There will be no
hearings before the committee until
the subcommittee has finished its
task and the completed draft Is In
the hands OF the chairman.
The recurrence Of two phases OF
currency discussion marked the con
ference. These were: The creation
Of elasticity in the currency and the
disposition Of reserve balances In ma
tional banks. The committe was APP
parently agreed that 1t will sanction
no move to increase the bulk OF paper
money. but will confne itself to the
consideration OF the best means OF
Injecting elasticity. The plan OF pro
yiding Tor the issuance OF national
bank credit notes, which can be Ia
stantly drawn into circulation when
general conditions require an increas-
ed currency. and retirement as
promptly when the need has passed.,
was presented and discussed at some
length.
The view was strongly urged that
the laws should be- changed so as to
prevent the absorption OF reserve
moneys in national banks by banks in
reserve cities. National banks are re
quired TO hold in reserve cities three
hfths OF their reserve capital. and II
was pointed out that under this re-
quiremont country banks have to send
this reserve portion TO the nearest
designated reserve city. whose banks.
il was asserted, loan 1t out and In time
OF sudden emergency find themselves
unable to respond to the call Of the
country banks for return OF the de-
posits. Several members OF the COM
mittee expressed the opinion that the
loaning Of reserve funds should be
checked by legislation.
