that among them are several whom
Senator Smith would like to displace
with men who were active in bringing
about his election as senator. Were
the senators to lock horns on the mat

probably under such circumstances
the senate would decline TO confirm
Michigan appointments and that as a
result the present officeholders might
continue indefinitely in office.

order relating to the acceptance of

that the order, even as modified to
exempt five-year homesteaders and
purchasers of Indian lands, was still
too restrictive. The letters were placed
before the president and after con-
sultation with Secretary Of the Inter-
ior Garfield and Land Commissioner
BaIling, the president decided to modi-
fy the suspension order still further.
by providing that local officers shall
issue final receipts and patents shall

Crank Petitions to
Legislatures for Help

We all know that legislatures in
general are quite capable of doing
some funny things but if those who
are inclined to poke fun at them for
the freak bills now and then intro
duced only know half of the demands
made by their constituents they would
agree that the grave and reverend
seignors might, with Warren Hastings,
declare MY lords, when | look back
upon my opportunities ! am ashamed
at my own moderations.'
That cranks should besiege the legis:.
latures with ideas for freak bills which
they wish or think they wish enacted
into law does not seem SO strange, but
some little study of the subJect shows
that by far most Of the queer legisla-
tioir asked is wanted by women.
They used to confine their efforts to
the suppression of the rum devil or the
gambling devil or some other devil,
which they wished to see chained up,
but these petitions are not now nearly
so numerous as others of a different
nature. Last week. for instance. a
maiden out in the state where every
body wants to be shown conceived an
idea which certainly varies the mo-
notony of taxing the brutes who, de-
spite the allurements of so much fem
mime charm, dare to remain In single
blessedness. The request perhaps
throws some light of justice on the
side of the "hrutes'' and Is therefore
worthy Of reproduction. The fair PEI
titioner among other things says.
Il wish you would use your great
influence to get through bill some-
thing like this Make 1t fine for any
old maid. to remain single after 20

many of them don't is. they don't know

not to like a young man. when they
really do. and then il the man is worth
shucks he won't stand for it, These
not only queer their own chances but
throw reproach on the rest of their
sex and they had ought to be fined for
1t. Every young lady can marry pref
ty nearly any young man she wants

Thaw's Attorneys End

I ADJOURNMENT TAKEN
ACTION OF DEFENSE IN BRING

DAY WHEN RERuTTAL TEsTl-

New York, March S.-The trial of
Harry X. Thaw today was adjourned
until Monday morning at 1O:SO o'clock
after Attorney Dolphin M. Delmas had
announced upon the opening of court
that the defense had concluded it's tes-
timony District Attorney Jerome
stated that he had no witnesses ready
to proceed with in rebuttal. and at his
request an adjournment was taken.
This action was not unexpected, for
Delmas served notice late yesterday
upon the district attorney that the de-
fense had abandoned its plan of call
ling two more experts.
Jerome did not consider the notifi-
cation as official and so came into
| court this morning prepared to listen
to more testimony as to Thaws un-
sound condition Of mind.
| The court session was opened with
| all the usual formalities. Thaw was
bright and smiling as he walked to his
place at the counsel table. The pris-
oners arms We're filled as usual with
| big brown envelopes containing his
correspondence. When Justice Fitz-
gerald had ascended the bench, Del
mas arose and uttered in low voice:
Defense rests"
Jerome then said he would have to
ask for an adjournment of the case
until Monday morning, which was
granted.
1t was reported around the criminal
court building that Jerome had sub
poenaed EVELYN Thaw to appear as a
witness for the rebuttal for the pur-
pose of getting information concerning

HE BECAME A HOT SPORT
THE TRIP is SIGNIFICANT IN
STRENGTHENING ENGLISH RE-
,slSTANcE TO RUSSIAN EN-
cRoAcHMENT IN THAT COR
NER OF THE WORLD.

Calcutta, March S.--After over two
months visit to India, the Amir of
Afghanistan, Kabibullah Khan, has re-
crossed the frontier into his own coun-
try and has started for Kabul, his cap
.ital
His majesty Enthusiastically enjoyed
every day of his stay in India He
was for the time officially designated
as your majesty" in telegram of
welcome from King Edward when the
amir entered India, which is regarded
here as significant.
While no proposals of a political or
military character have been made on
either side, and no modification of
British Afghan relations, as estab-
lished by the treaty Of Kabul in 1906,
was suggested, the visit is regarded
by both the British and the Indian
governments as further strengthening
the ties which make Afghanistan a
state which Is secure against possible
Russian invasion.
The amir went up in balloon and
became keen motorist, as a result of
which he has taken several automo-
biles back 10 Afghanistan with him.
He developed an immense liking for
playing bridge whist and made the
Afghanistan courtiers learn the game
SO that he could play it at Kabul.

Radical Nominees Receive Support Of

Scene Promised in Case of Demand
for General Amnesty by Socialists.

st. Petersburg, March s.-The first
slSirmish for the control of the oppo-
sition in the lower house of parlia-
ment was won today by the radicals,
who compelled the constitutional dem
ocrats to abandon their candidates for
vice presidents and accept the nomi-
nees of the radical coalition. During
the afternoon the socialists in caucus
discussed the immediate introduction
of a demand for general amnesty and
1t is possible that this may be done at
the close of today's session, which will
be likely to precipitate stormy scene.
Until late in the afternoon, however,
the house was occupied with the cleo
!, tions of vice presidents, the secretary
and the latter's four assistants.
