CONGRESS WORRIED
SoIons Speculate on Nature of
Threatened Roosevelt
Disclosures.
WHAT WILL BE RESULT?

Washington, Dec. 12.-There Is
much speculation in congressional cir
cles as to the ultimate result OF the
pending controversy between congress
and President Roosevelt over the uses
of the secret service agents. There Is
no doubt of the depth of feeling that
has been aroused over the presidents
ironical suggestion that congressman
Go not wish themselves and their &C
tons watched, but there is still great
er irritation over the knowledge that
secret service detectives have been on
the trail of congressman and that the
president evidently intends to continue
that practice.
Members Of both the house and the
senate are wondering what the presi-
dent has up his sleeve. They do not
believe he would have said what he did
in his message without approaching
that it would be resented. and they
hear that he is prepared to come back
with disclosures of an unpleasant ma
ture to some gentlemen in case con-
gress becomes rude to him in its treat
ment of the subject.
Just what these disclosures will be is
what is causing most of the specula
ton and perhaps worriment on the
part of some.

A LIVE COAL TRICK.
Teaches Natural Law, Yet Has All the
Appearance of Magic.

Appearance of Magic.
No one would suppose that it is pos
sible to hold glowing coal on piece
Of linen or cotton without burning the
cloth, but that such can be done is easy
for any one to prove, and at the same
time the experiment teaches an iapor-
tant natural law. Every child knows
that the telephone and telegraph wires
are made of copper because that metal
is a good conductor of heat and cleo
tricity, which is only another form of
heat. If poker is heated in the fire
you pick up a cloth to hold the outer
end. although ii has not been in the
fire, because experience has taught you
that the heat Is connected through the
metal from the fire to the outer end.
This Experiment with the flaming
coal Is based upon this principle and
the additional one that linen and cot
ton are poor conductors of heat. Take
a globe Of copper and draw piece of
cloth tightly over 1t SO that there Is
not wrinkle at the top If the linen
or cotton Is closely woven the trick is
all the more certain. Then. holding the
cloti tightly in place. you can safely
put glowing coal on top of the cloth.
and, while it burns fiercely, the cloth
will not even be scorched.
The reason is that the great conduc-
tivity of the copper draws the heat of
the coal before it can burn the cloth
Do not make this experiment with a
good handkerch ief first. for if the cloth
is net tightly drawn 1t may burn. but
take some worthless piece Of linen or
muslin. and after you are certain of
your experience you can astonish your
friends who do not know the secret

WOMEN'S HATS
STUMP COMMITTEE
and Means Committee
Gets Tangled Up on
The Subject.
HIGH DUTY is PROPOSED.
COST TO BUYERS WOULD IN
CREASE IF SUCH ACTION WE'RE
TAkEN-cHAMP CLARK HAS A
PECULIAR IDEA OF WOMEN.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 12.-The
ways and means committee today got
tangled up by the subject of women's
hats and displayed lack of informa-
ton on this subject. Peter Fucker,
representing millinery importers of
New York and large millinery manu-
facturers, appeared to oppose the pro-
posal of New York manufacturers of
artificial feathers and flowers to in
crease the advalorem duty from 90 to
20 per cent.
Mr.. Fucker urged that the duty re-
main as it Is.
"If there is any article in the world y
said he, 'in which the question of the
consumer comes in it is woman s
hat He argued that the styles of
decorations of hats were set in Paris
and that the average woman insisted
on having her hats trimmed with i'm
ported feathers. He said that the
proper trimmings were made here, but
were used only on cheap hats.
Consumer Must Pay.
"A higher duty would not keep out a
single imported feather" declared Mr..
Fucker, "and the consumer would have
to pay the additional duty"
Mr. Fucker further urged that it
was not the ultra rich that were eff
fected alone by the plan for an in
creased duty, but that the great mid,
die class would have to pay more for
hats.
IF woman wants to buy bonnet, "
said Champ Clark, 'she don't care a
snap how much she pays for it." He
added that if a reduction of the tariff
would make bonnets cheaper, he was
for it, 1t was brought out that the
government gets $3,0OO,000 out of rev.
enues for imported hat trimmings.

The name Of the teacher being given,
the king ordered him to report at once
to the minister Of justice, while ne
took the next train for Flakkebjerb
and examined. the class in the teachers
absence. The children. unawed by the
presence Of the cruel teacher. told their
grievance to the kindly old king. who
promised in Mediate relief. closed the
school for the day and ordered that the
boys be treate to chocolate and cakes
at his expense Ito remember him by"
But he did more than that On re-
turning to Copenhagen he dismissed
the cruel teacher without pension. at
the same time giving = general warn
Ing to all teachers to be chary Of cor
