BRYAN IN APPEAL
TO THE PRESIDENT
Urges Popular Election Of Sen
atOTS and Income Tax.

Lincoln, Neb., July 13-William J.
Bryan addressed a letter to President
Taft asking him to allow the people
to vote on popular election of sena-
tors. Mr.. Bryan writes:
President Taft: Now that the
states are going to vote on the ratif1-
cation of the amendment specifically
authorizing an income tax, why not
give them a chance to vote an amend
ment providing for the election of
United States senators by popular
vote?
In your speech of acceptance you
said that you were personally inclined
to favor such change In the constitu-
ton. Would this not be an opportune
time to present the subject to con-
gress?
1.-TWO constitutional amendments,
one authorizing income tax and the
other providing for the popular cleo
tion of senators would make your ad-
ministration memorable, and I pledge
you whatever assistance I can render
in securing the ratification of these
amendments. With great respect, I
am, yours truly.

wrote for him the play Charles t.
When Wills was boy ten years old
he was taken to see Edmund Kean
play Macbeth In the murder scene

power of the actor that, seized with
severe attack of nausea, he hurried
from the box. Ten years later he was
lunching at a chop house In Fleet
street when a man entered, sat down
at table near him and ordered a
meal. He was a perfect stranger to
Wills, who, after few minutes pro-
pinquity, was again seized with 1T
Of nausea, from which he had not suf
fered since as boy he was at the
theater on the occasion mentioned. He
was obliged to leave the room. When
some minutes later he paid his bill the
waiter said to him: did you see that
gentleman at the table near you?

High school has caused a stir in the
BOARD of education and among resi-

At a meeting of the board stormy
session resulted, as a majority favored
engaging Miss Boss again.
Studley |. Henderson, who is back
ing Professor Jones In his stand
stopped the majority from re-engaging
Miss Boss as he voted in her favor so
that he might get reconsideration of
the vote and as result the matter
went over.
Directors Mackett, Ford, Wagner
and Ferber side with Miss Boss, while
Henderson, Jordan and Gerlinger COM

Budapest, and while there he had the
idea of ordering a hurdred visiting
cards. When he returned home he
found. to his dismay, that the cards
bore the name of Mayisch instead OF
Hirsch. 1t was only printers error,
but to Jan Hirsch 1t meant loss OF a
shilling and sixpence unless he could
make use Of the cards. He according

his name to Mavisch. His prayer was
granted. He is now Jan Mavisch.-
