 "Sit in draughts and walk through water without being continually scared of catching cold" he advised. You've pampered and educated your body to be afraid of these things. There's nothing to be afraid of. Educate yourself out of 1t. The mind controls it. Decide that you will not care about your environment.

 Constantinople, Feb. 15.-The Turk ish Government Is much worried by an Abyssinlan political mission which has not only failed in It's object but has outstayed it's welcome.
 In spite of the broadest hints that 1t Is high time they returned to their master, the Emperor Menelik, General Mensech sha and his suite are calmly lingering here, enjoying the pleasures of the capital at the Turkish Govern ment's expense.
 This is the third visit of the Abyss sinians to Constantinopie with the ob- ject of pressing their claim to the pos- session of the Dair Saltaneh Convent at Jerusalem. and by dogged persist ence they have extorted a small con- cession from the Sublime Porte. Still unsatisied they pressed for the larger claim, until the patience of the Porte was exhausted and General Menshe- shan was curtIy informed that there was nothing doing"
 Having finally realized that their mission had failed. the Abyssinians did not turn their faces homeward, but settled down to drown their disappoint- meht in Turkish delights" They have been staying at the best hotels, and en- toying the use of the Sultan's car- riages for daily drives. Their enter tainment has so far cost the Govern ment about S40.000.
 When the Porte thought the mission had stayed long enough. it withdrew the services of the court officials as- signed to act as their guide and in- terpreter, but even this hint had no effect. The Abyssinians have gone SO

He was thrice breveted in the Mexican war and emerged from 1t with the rank of colonel. Tn 1852 Colonel Lee was assigned to the command of the military academy at West Point.

Corporate Interests AsIking for Suits
 Against Labor Organizations
 Under shermnn Law. washington Special to New York Herr
 ala,
 President Roosevelt has not decided to send a special message to Congress on the subject of labor, notwlthstand- ing persistent reports. But 1t is said to be fact that the President is very much concerned over the labor situa- tion in the country.
 This is primarily because of the de- cision of the Supreme Court of the United States on Monday. February 2. declaring that under the sherman anti- trust law labor unions were illegal and that boycotts could not be maintained without being in violation of the in- terstate principle
 What makes the situation one of dan ger to the Republican party is that corporate interests are now pressing the President to proceed against ths labor unions. and especially the Amer ican Federation of Labor. just as he proceeded against the American To- bacco Trust. the Northern Securities Company, the Beef Trust. the Paper Trust. the Elevator Trust. the Fertil- izer Trust and various other combina- tions.
 It is not at all likely that the ad. ministration will yield to these impor~ tunities of capital and proceed for the dissolution of the American Federation of Labor or for the lenJoining of ail their boycotts. At the same time the situation has considerable embarrass- ment. Much depends on the exact wording of the opinion of Chief Jus- tice Fuller. and that has not yet been printed.
 It is said that the Taft managers are very anxious that some action should be taken by Congress. The leaders of Congress would prefer to let the matter rest and dare Mfr. Bryan to do his worst in the coming cam- paign rather than run the risk of open ing the whole question to debate.
