Takes Its Own Time for Lis
tening to Three Messages
From White House.
MADE MERRY WHILE
SECRETARY WAITED
HOUSE ADJoURNS BEFORE HAP
LESS lATTA REACHES THAT
END OF THE CAPITOL.

Washington, Dec. 19.-The senate had
some fun today when three routine
messages from the president We're re-
ceived and prevented the delivery of the
messages in the house.
Just as tile secretary was beginning
to read the journal the arrival of NJ. c.
Latts, assistant secretary to the presi-
dent. with the message was noted and
the presidents representative was kers
waiting until the tedious reading of the
journal had been disposed of.
The reading had scarcely begun when
Mr.. Gallinger proposed suspending the
reading to permit the messages to be
presented. as is usual. whatever the or
der of theAbusiness under consideration
Lodge Began 1t.
Senator Lodge wished TO keep the
senate in session long enough to get the
immigrants air-space bill over from the
house with the speakers signature. and
he insisted that the journal would be
read.
Il have a special reason for asking
that the reading be suspended said
Senator Culberson, glancing toward Mr..
Latta.
II object" insisted Mr. Lodge.
When Mr.. Lodge was satisfied that his
bin had been signed, he arose and asked
that the further reading of the journal
be dispensed with.
II object" said Mr. Gallinger
Senator Carter then interrupted the
reader and endeavored to stop the read
ing. but Senator Money of Mississippi
objected. Again Senator Culberson
called attention to the presence of the
presidents representative and repeated
his request.
Great Fun for Senators.
. AZ object insisted Mr. Money
This running fire of requests and OBJ
jections was accompanied by frequent
laughter, and finally the clerk was al
lowed TO pursue his doleful reading
until the journal had been completed.
Then the messages We're received, but
the house so that when Mr. Ilatta
reached the house he found IL had adj
Journed, and he was obliged to carry
the messages back to the White House.
One of the messages related to the
granting of franchises for water and
gas companies and for the building of
a bridge and the Improvement of a har-
Dor at Porto Rico; another asked an
appropriation of $25. 600 for the accept
ance of the invitation of the Austrian
Hungarian government to participate
in an exposition, and the third related
to fixing the boundary line between
Colorado and New Mexico.

Suicide Planned.

That Mrs Martin was determined to
end her life as soon as the opportunity
offered became apparent this afternoon,
when she was seized with a severe
fainting spell shortly after being SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment, from which
she did not rally until nearly an hour
and a half later.
Two small papers containing white
powders were found, one in a pocket of
her coat and the other beneath the cor
ner of the bed in her cell. That taken
from her coat contained powdered
glass The contents of the other are
believed to be strychnine.
AS soon as Mrs. Martin recovered she
denied having taken anything, but in
the next breath she said to District At
torney Donahue, who was at her side:
Il want TO die. l have nothing TO live
for. I don't want to go to prison and
disgrace my son. Henry Hoffman !
want to die
The police are puzzled to account for
the presence Of the drug in the wo-
mans possession.

Money may be the loudest sound in
world of noise, passport for every
place but heaven. the best bait for the
matrimonial hook, and the best fuel
for fun-but it never can be an eff
feetive substitute for brains.-Brains.

j. Martin, who was convicted of con-
spiracy in the dynamiting of the home
of Judge Ogden in this city. was SEN

cupied but eight minutes in their de-
liberation. and Judge Wells took but
about a minute today in giving a SEN
tence.
When Mrs. Martin appeared in court
her counsel presented an affidavit to the
court asking for a stay of judgment on
the ground that she is insane. Judge
Wells responded that there was no
question in his mind as TO her sanity,
and that it had been fully evident in
all the procedure of the trial. Then or
dering Mrs. Martin to be arraigned be-
fore him, he told her he had no desire
to add to her humiliation, but that she
had been given a fair trial, adiudged
guilty, and the sentence of the cour
was that "she should be confined in the
penitentiary for the remainder of her
life
Excepting for a flush on her face.
Mrs. Martin made no demonstration or
any sort The court room was packed
to suffocation during the proceedings.
Mrs. Martin was taken to the county
jail to await her removal to the states
prison.

SHORE BOULEVARD
AN ASSURED FACT,
SAYS G|LKYS0N
State Road Commission So Tells
Board of Freeholders of
Ocean County.

PIONT PLEASANT, Nov. 1S.-In the
opinion of State Commissioner OF
Roads Gilkyson. as expressed to the
Ocean County Board of F'reeholders at
its meeting here yesterday, the "Shore
Boulevard" built and maintained by
the State, is practically IN assured
project. NThe commissioner said that
Governor Fort himself, as the head
of the road department, n the whole
weight of the State administration
would be found back of the plan to
create and maintain the boulevard
when the Legislature convened In jan
uary.
Commissioner Gilkyson met with the
F~reeholders to take UP the matter OF
the beach road from Bay Head to Sea-
side Park, half of which has just beer
completed. This half was accepted ny
the county.
The commissioner Is in favor of fol
lowing the beach route from Seabrighi
south to Seaside Park, there building q
bridge across Barnegat Bay to the
mainland and thence taking the bay
shore route to Atlantic and Cape May
counties.

HES of the great meadow tract running
along the shore from Newark south
ward, and predicted that in time the
State could develop its inland water
ways from Cape May SO that the entire
group of cities and resorts for a dis
lance of III miles would be benefited.
He commended the Newark Board of
Trade for It's efforts toward the devel-
opment of North Jersey, and suggested
that all h trade bodies in Bergen, Es-
SEX, Hudson, Union and Passaic hold a
Joint session some time In the winter
or spring to discuss plans for further
ing the Industrial Inc business growth
of New Jersey.
Organizing the lowlands in this vi
cinity and near Philadelphia for bust
ness and conceiving the highlands for
residential purposes, was the pith of his
suggestions. He received the thanks
of the board.
