that he was not "feeling his oats' and

HEARING ON INITIATIVE
AND REFERENDUM BILLS

The assembly committee on jude
larry will give a hearing on the init
iative and referendum bills at Tren-
ton Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Briefly stated the bills provide:
Under the initiative" a petition of
ten per cent. of the voters of the
state may secure a vote Of The legis-
lature upon any law or question; if
not passed as submitted, then the
people vote upon it at the next gener-
al election: under the referendum, "
five per cent. of the states voters
may require submission to the peo-
pie at the next election of any law
passed by the legislature. in neither
case is the vote final. The next iegis-
lature is simply advised as to public
opinion and is required 10 vote upon
the measure.
The enactment of these bills into
laws will make 1t impossible hereaf-
ter for party machines and bosses to
prevent the expression of public opin-
ion upon any subject; they strike at
the root of present political evils and
corruption by restoring to the people
the power which has been gradually
and stealthily stolen frou them.
These bills contain no radical pro-
visions, and do not interfere with the
independence and responsibility of
the legislature. They embody the
best features of the systems now in
use in many states.

District Attorney Jerome pleaded
for permission to examine DIR. Allan

absence of Il waiver OF professional

Justice Fitzgerald said he would not
allow the doctor to be examined.
District Attorney Jerome occupied
most OF the time the court was in SEES

reasons which had hindered him from
earlier calling the attention OF the
court to Thaw's present state of mind.
He said he had long been convinced
that the defendant was Of unsound
mind, but he had no way Of legally
bringing the matter to the attention
of the court until DR.. Hamilton was
put upon the stand by the defense.
Mr.. Jerome said he could not have
called DR.. Hamilton on account OF the
professional privilege which the de-
Tense could have interposed MS a bar

might have 10 offer.

GENERAL ENTER
 TAINS PRIVATES

Colorado Springs, Colo. Aug. 19.- With the arrival today of the first of the veterans who will arrive here by hundreds within the next few days to attend the reunion of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania cavalry, General w. M. J. Palmer's regiment in the civil war, Colorado Springs has become the scene of the most novel assemblage of old soldiers ever held in the Unite l States. Owing to ill health the aged General Palmer has been unable to attend the reunions of the men whom he led on the fields of battle. Strong ly desiring to again meet his old comrades, and being possessed of con- siderable wealth, he arranged to bring all the survivors of his regiment to Colorado Springs at his expense and will entertain them in an elaborate manner while here. The main body of veterans will reach here tomorrow on a special train from Pennsylva- mia, where most of them still reside
 From the time each leaves his own door until he returns to it all ex- penses will be borne by General

Wooden Anchors.

The BasQues, strange race inter. mediate between French and Span aards, have for all time been great fish crmen, and some of their craft and seagoing gear are totally different from any other known types. Perhaps the most remarkable relic of bygone civilizations is the primitive wooden anchor still in use among them and to be seen in the fishing settlements round Blarrtz, Guethary or St. Jean de Luz These wooden anchors are in all prob ability of the identical type in use among the Phoenicians twenty centu- ries ago. The wooden anchor is rough hewn out of three branches, so fasten- cd to crossbar, also of wood, as to in close q great stone of twenty or thirty pounds weight. Here is cheap but effectual anchor for comparatively light boats. It can be made on the spot, and 1t entails little loss if, in sudden squall, it has to be left imbedded in tue rocks

 CONFEDERATES

McAlester, l. T., Aug. 19.-Confed- crate veterans of Oklahoma and h. dian Territory are swarming into Me- Alester today by the hundreds to take part in the joint reunion at which the two departments will be amalga-
 mated. Appearances indicate that this encampment, marking the union of the territorial divisions in advance of impending statehood, will be one of the largest gatherings of the wear CTS of the gray ever held in the Southwest. The Daughters of the Confederacy of the two territories held their annual reunion today, and the two chapters will be merged into one organization covering the new state of Oklahoma.
 Every effort has been made by the local camps and commercial bodies to fittingly entertain the veterans during their stay of three days.

Froperties of Gold

t'ure gold is unaffected by the atmos- phere either at ordinary temperatures ol when the meal is heated It is also proof against the action of common aeds when used sin@ly. Moreover. it conterS it's properties more c. less upon copper and silver when these metals are alloyed with it. Thus. for example. twelve karat gold will withstand the acton of nitric acid and the atmos- phere at ordinary temperature, but some of the copper will be oXidiZed during annealing, Nine parts of gold may be alloyed with ten parts of plat mum in an ordinary crucible and fire. but such an alloy will not be uniform. A larger proportion of platinum will free itself from the gold on solidifica- tion, and homogeneous alloy of the two metals cannot be ohtained.-Jewel- CTS Circular Weekly.
