Loyal Sons of Old Erin At
 tend en MaSse

NEW YORK, December 21.-Loyal sons of the Emerald Isle and other syni- pathizers with the Irish home rule cause packed the New Amsterdam theater this afternoon and vociferously ap. plauded the "turns' of the score or more vaudeville and legitimate actors who contributed their services to the monster benefit arranged in aid of the fund that is being raised here for the Irish Parliamentary party. The affair was also in the nature of send-off for T. P. O'Connor, M. F., who has been touring the country for nearly two months to raise money for the work he has undertaken in regard to home rule for Ireland MT. O'Connor will sail for home tomorrow to take part in the election campaign now on in Great Britain. In addition to Mir. O'Connor those present at the big benefit per formance this afternoon included Arch bishop Farley and a number of the most prominent Irish leaders in New York.

EARTH REACHES
 WINTER SOLST|CE
Shortest Day of Year Will
 Take Place Today

WASHINGTON, D. C., December 2l For this latitude, today is the short est day of the year, and at clock tomorrow morning, mean Washington time, the earth will reach the winter solstice which, astronomically speaking marks the beginning of winter. In it's mad rush around it's ellipica orbit around the sun the earth, twice every astronomical year, reaches points which mark respectively the longest and the shortest distance of the earth from the sun. These points represent the turn ing points. of the four seasons, the yer nal equinox, and the autumnal equinox, when day and night are of equal length, the summer solstice, when the day is longest and the night shortest, and the winer solstice, when the day is short est and the night longest. On the southern hemisphere the order is re, versed and while December 2l usually marks the shortest day of the year on the northern hemisphere, on the south. ern hemisphere it marks the longest of the year and the beginning of the as tronomical summer.
 The ancient Greeks called the period including the seven days preceding and the seven days following the shortest day of the year the Halcyon days. {" This phrase is derived from the myth that during this period, while the king. fisher or halcyon bird was breeding, the sea was always calm. According to poetic fiction, the bird was represented as hatching it's eggs in floating nest in the midst of waters.

EXCLUDES POLITICS FROM TAKING IF
 CENSUS
Taft Reiterates Former In structions in Talk to
 Enumerators

WASHINGTON, D. C., December 21 President Taft's ringing address to the census supervisors from the east ern states, in conference here, was in. tended not only for them, but, also for all the other supervisors, for the candidates for enumerators' places, the politicians, and the world in general He said:
 ''I am very glad to see you. You number about third of the force up on which we have to rely to take the census. l expressed my opinion about the character of your duties when I wrote a letter to Mir. Durand. I did not write that letter just for the fun of having it published, I wrote it to be genuine instruction to you, and l hope you will all observe it. know if you pursue it it will be an easy course for you. If you don't observe it, then l will observe you. I know. of course, there will be pressure.
 Many of you-most of you-have been recommended by congressman, and 1t may be that some of these congress- men will come to you and expect, be. cause they did recommend you, that you owe them something in the way of SC. lecting the men as enumerators who will help them in their congressional elec- tion. You have got to use sense and discretion. You have got to select the men that you think will do the work, and if you catch them doing political work l wish you to remove them, just as l will remove you if I catch you doing political work. It is business.
 ''I am not quarreling with the con gressmen. Each man is looking for all the aid he can get to get back into his place. and I am not objecting to the efforts in that direction. But you are the gentlemen that I want to make re. sponsible, through Mir. Durand, for talk. ing this census, and you are the gentle, men l rely upon, and if l can t rely upon you, then I am going to direct Mir Durand to let me know about it, and 1 will see if I cannot help him out with somebody else.
 ''I take great pride in this census. I believe We can make it the best cen sus that has been taken, if We take it as a census and do not use and regard it as incidental to something else.
 Now, you are not we'll paid. This is not business that is going to en- rich any one of you; but it is business that is worth doing well, and I hope it will turn out SO that when the census is taken we shall all have pride in the fact that we were part in taking it, however humble.
 CT am glad to meet you, gentlemen. would be glad to say this same thing to your fellows, but having this oppor- tunity of delivering little lecture, l could not restrain myself from doing so. I mean every word have said. l"

GOVERNOR OF KANSAS MAY
 RELEASE ELDORADO lURDERESS

Castle. They were employed in the same store in Eldorado and were en- gagged to be married. Without notice Ito her Castle married woman named Clara Wiley. Shortly thereafter Miss Morrison went to the Castle home and the two women engaged in death struggle. Mrs. Castle s throat was cut with a razor from ear to ear and she died a few days later.
 Jessie Morrison was charged with the crime. She pleaded selfdefense. The jury disagreed at the first trial. At the second trial she was convicted of man slaughter and sentenced to five years. Her attorneys appealed and the supreme court reversed the decision. At the third trial she was convicted of murder in the second degree and given twenty five years in prison. The supreme court affirmed this decision.

The "old soldiers" the veter-
ans who barred their breast to the
bullets of the secessionists of the
South that this country might
not be severed in twain, held a
grand reunion at the A. Y. P.
exposition last week. Perhaps
not one of the hundreds that at
tended enlisted from the then
territory of Washington. AL
most every Northern state in the
union was represented. Since
Washington has become a state
many of the veterans have locat-
ed here and will remain until the
last bugle call. These old veter-
ans should be honored by every
loyal man and woman. When
met they should be greeted with
a smiling bow and a God bless
you," for it was they that saved
this the best country on earth
for us all and for succeeding gen
erations.

POLITICAL fOT PIE

The legislature has taken the
wise course and will put John
H. Schively on trial before an
impeachment court and if found
guilty he will not only be dis
missed from Office, but will be
subject to arrest and trial in the
criminal courts. The impeach-
ment court will hold it's first ses-
sion Aug. 18th and will continue
until finished by holding night
and day sessions. Whether or
not the opposition will be able to
impeach Mr.. Schively should not
have entered into the contest.
The charges had been placed
against his good name and the
only thing TO do was to either
prove them or find him not gull
ty. By this means no one will
be mistreated. The Palmer bill
was a mistake from beginning to
end and was a cowardly measure.
If all the offices are to be abol-
ished because the office holder
proves himself a bad man, then
it is feared there will be but few
state offices left in Washington.
Old timers smile when they
read in the Times the many vul-
gar remarks that it from time to
time to time is making about
Governor Hay. Just how u pa
per can thrive and yet speak
about the highest official of the
state as does the Times of Gov
ernor Hay, is up to you to ans
wer. The Times has no greater
excuse than that he is endeav-
oring to have honest officials in
the state and where one is &C
cused of malfeasance in office
to have such person tried before
the proper tribunal and if found
guilty turned out of office. In
this case the man that has been
accused has givefl the editor OF
the Times considerable business
for the paper, and thief or what
not such man in the opinion OF
the editor of the Times must be
protected in the columns of his
paper, which fully explains the
opposition of the Times to Gov.
Hay. Once man was on charge
for a grave offense and he asked
the judge to say one word to the
jury, which request was granted
him. He simply said in a loud
tone of voice, we grafters
must stand together" and it is
said that the man was acquitted
as soon as the case was submit
ted.
Alden ]. Blethen has had edi-
torial charge of the Times ever
since John H. McGraw was gov
ernor of the state and he has
abused every governor like a
pickpocket with the exception of
Gov. Rogers, and the only reason
that he did not abuse him was
because Rogers permitted him,
Blethen, to dictate his policy.
No human being was ever more
damnably vilitied by a publisher
than did the Times under Colonel
Blethen vilify Gov McGraw. Thief
CRATER and defaulter are some
of the epithets he applied to him
in 1896 as McGraw was closing
his administration. Nor did he
stop his attacks after the COVER
nor had left the office. but the
