dent has indicated to congress both IN
his message and in private converse
ton with members that he favors a
ship subsidy bill. The president has
threatened to write special message
upon the subject which he may send TO

The president favors ship subsidy
legislation because it will tend TO

There are quite number of mem
bers in the present house who pay their
entire salaries to their private secre-
taries. They depend upon their pri-
vate secretaries to do most of their
work. About all such members do is
to appear upon the floor of the house
and make an occasional speech. In
some cases it is claimed that these
speeches are written by their private
secretaries. At least all of the ma
terial for these speeches are collected
by the secretaries and is only put into
the shape of speech by the mem
bers. But the poorer members, as
rule, voted for the increase. They not
only earn the money, but need it in
maintaining respectable appearance
at Washington and in responding to
the demand upon them at home. If the
increase Is not passed by the senat.
some of the strongest members of the
house will be forced to retire from con-
gress because they cannot afford to
come at the present salaries. The in
crease in salary for the members will
do more to keep poor men in congress
than any legislation that has been pro-
posed in years..

somtAthe sorriest-in velvet gowns.
With these, the distressed, the wrong
doors, the drunken, the dirty and the
very poor, his work lay and his days
and nights were spent.
When Joe went about the streets he
was made to feel his condition by the
elaborate avoidance. yet furtive at
tentson, of every respectable person he
met, and when he came home to his
small rooms and shut the door behind
him he was as one who has been
Kissed and snamed in public and runs
to bury his hot face in his pillow. He
petted his mongrel extrayagantly (well
he might and would sit with him in
his rooms at night holding long con-
verse with him, the two alone togeth-
er. The dog was not his only con-
fidaat. There came to be another,
more and more frequent partner to
their conversations, at last familiar
spirit. This third came from a brown
jug which Joe kept on a shelf In his
bedroom, . vessel too frequently re-
plellished. When the days work was
done he shut himself up, drank alone
and drank hard. Sometimes when the
jug ran low and the night was late he
would 20 out for walk with his dog
and would awake In his room the next
morning not remembering where he
had gone or how he had come home.
Once. after such lapse Of memory,
he woke amazed to find himself at
Beaver Beach, whittier, he learned
from the red bearded man, Happy Fear
had brought him, having found him
wandering dazedly in field near by.
These lapses grew more frequent until
there occurred that which was one Of
the strange things Of his life.
1t was June night, little more
than two years after his return to
Canaan. and the Tocsin had that day
announced the approaching marriage
of Eugene Bantry and his employers
daughter. Joe ate nothing during the
day and went through his work clumsi-
~. visiting the bedroom shelf at inter
walls. At 10 In the evening he went out
to have the jug refilled, but from the
moment he left his door and the fresh
air struck his face he had no clear
knowledge Of what he did or Of what
went on about him until he woke in
his bed the next morning.
And yet, whatever little part OF the
soul Of him remained that night still
undulled, not numbed, but alive, was
in some strange manner lifted out Of
its pain toward strange delight. His
body was an automaton, his mind In
bondage. yet there was a still small
consciousness in him which knew that
in his wandering something Incredible
and unexpected was happening. What
this was he did not know, could not
see, though his eyes were open, could
not have told himself any more than
a baby could tell why 1t laughs, but 1t
seemed something so beautiful and
wonderful that the night became q
night Of perfume. it's breezes bearing
the music Of harps and violins while
nightingales sang from the naples that
bordered the streets of Canaan.

A chime of bells sounded from church
steeple across the square, ringing out
in assured righteousness, summoning
the good people who maintained them
to come and sit beneath them or be
taken to task, and they fell so dismal
ly upon Joe's ear that he bestirred him
self and rose, to the delight Of his mon
grel, who leaped upon him joyfully.
An hour later or thereabout the pair
emerged from the narrow stairway and
stood for a moment, blinking in the
fair sunshine, apparently undecided
which way to go. The church bells
were silent There was no breeze. The
air trembled little with the deep pip
ings of the organ across the square,
and, save for that, the town was very
quiet. The paths which crossed the
courthouse yard were fecked with
steady shadow, the strong young foil
age Of the naples not moving, having
the air of observing the Sabbath with
propriety. The organ ceased to stir
the air, and all was in quiet yet
quiet which for Louden was not peace.
He looked at his watch and, without
intending it, spoke the hour aloud, "A
quarter past IL" The sound Of his
own voice gave him a little shock.
H.e rose without knowing why, and as
he did SO it seemed to him that he
heard close to his ear another voice,
woman's, troubled and insistent, but
clear and sweet, saying:
Remember! Across Main street
bridge ut noonw
1t was so distinct that he started and
looked round. Then he laughed. "l'l
be seeing circus parades next" His
laughter fed, for, louder than the ring
ing In his ears, Enthusiastically came the
strains of faraway brass band which
had no existence on land or sea or In
the waters under the earth.
"Here!" he said to the mongrel. Eve
need a walk, think. Let's you and
me move on before the camels turn
the corner"
The music followed him to the street,
where he turned westward toward the
river, and presently as he walked on,
tanning himself with his straw hat, it
faded and was gone. But the voice he
had heard returned.
"Remember! Across Main street
bridge at noon!' it said again close to
his ear.
This time he did not start. "All
right" he answered, wiping his fore
head. 'If you'll let me alone. I'll be
there"
At dingy saloon corner near the
river a shabby little man greeted him
heartily and petted the mongrel. I'm
