Senators May Keep Themselves Clean

floored and wainscoted with the pur-
est of white stone. Into sections of
this room have been fitted the baths,
shower baths, Turkish baths, needle
baths and other facilities for cleanli-
ness which invite and even entice.
Marble rooms, bound round with
gilded steam pipes. beckon while the
senatorial waistcoat and modest neck
tie are hung up on solid metal hooks
fastened in marble walls.
In the rubbing rooms are two great
marble slabs, supported upon hand
somely carved bases. These are wide
enough to accommodate the ample
form of Senator Hepburn of Idaho,
long enough for the tall Shively of In
diana, and bounded around by a for.
bidding ridge, which will keep from
accidental fall the small and rotund
form of Chamberlain of Oregon.
1t is not to be charged because the
elaborate bathing facilities are pro-
vided in the senate Office building
that senators have not bathed before.
Two plain tubs off the room where
senators are shaven and trimmed at
the expense of the government were
available to senators or guests whom
they desired to entertain, but they
were seldom used.

bureau that should exist, and if this
were not true the loss in the recent
West India hurricane, which came on

less. Ports in the storm district were
warned of the approaching disturb

The storm apparently had it's incep.

Lesser Antilles, and moved thence
westward over the Caribbean sea. In
accordance with the weather bureau
warning much of the shipping was
placed in safe harbor and not injured
at all. The loss of life would have
been much less in all probability had
not the people who were warned dis
dained to heed the warning.

Way to Find Partners.

OF course, 1t was the pretty little
wife of newspaper editor who tried
this way of mating partners for a
large progressive party. She took
lads" from the Sunday paper and
pasted them on dainty cards, distribut-
ing them so that every want" would
be supplied. For instance: Wanted
Young girl. not over 16, to learn
bookkeeping in the Office Of a whole
sale house" was answered by the guest
who held the "ad." saying that young
girl wished to learn bookkeeping.
Choosing these lads" cleverly re-
suits in very funny time before the
real business of the evening begins, or
should I say Entertainment" To tell
the truth, have been to some parties
lately that make the word business"
seem more appropriate than anything
else, for the way some women play
bridge and other games causes me to
think that the ultimate end of parties,
recreation and pleasure has been for
gotten. Nowadays entertaining seems
like real work not only for the hostess,
but for the guests.

For the Hostess
Chat on Interesting Topics Of Many Kinds. by
Recognized Authority

try this plan: At large meeting of
college fraternity, the chairman of
the social committee requested each
one who was to be presented to send
her the name in full. There were
nearly so people present and there
were tally cards tied with the fraterni-
ty colors, each having a large number.
On the reverse side of the cards given
the men were the names of the girls
present and the girls cards had the
names Of the men. The acting hostess
explained that there would be no
formal introductions, that when man
or girl thought he or she had dis
covered who was who" the name, or
rather the number opposite the name,
was to be marked. To the one who
made the largest number of correct
acquaintances prize was awarded.
and there were special prizes for dis
covering the fads or peculiarities OF
guests. This is really most jolly
and effective method Of placing a
large number Of strangers at their
ease.

New Geyser in Yellowstone Park.

New Geyser in Yellowstone Park.
For few days past there have been
indications of an eruption of some
kind near the Fountain hotel in Vel
lowstone park, says dispatch from
Mammoth Hot Springs, Wyo. Now a
new and magnificent geyser has bro
ken out in full force about 100 feet
north of the regular Fountain geyser
near Fountain hotel. This new geyser
which does not appear to affect any of
the others in that vicinity, played to a
height of $50 to 200 feet, throwing OF
immense quantities of hot water, mud
and steam. The new geyser does not
play regularly as does Old Faithful
but at short intervals, the eruptions
occurring five or six hours apart, and
lasting about one hour.

Football Star Can Kick Money Bags Now

Mr.. McClung was probably one Of
the greatest half backs in college foot
ball, playing on the Yale team at the

It was largely due to the work of Nc
Chung and Heffelfnger that Yale went

A Tramn Party.


Now, for tramp party" exclaimed
The clever matron to whom we all
looked for novel sensations when it
came to entertaining, land we'll com
bine 1t with penny walk"
So last year just about this time the
party was given which 1 am about to
describe. 1t hardly seems possible
that 1t has been almost a twelve
month since the above remarks were
made. 1t was not practical to use the
suggestion for the department then, SO
u have waited for the glorious Sep
TENDER days to return.
The invitations were issued on
brown wrapping paper sealed with red
wax and the time was Saturday after
noon at three sharp" The guests
were told to wear tramping costumes
and each man to bring a bright, new
penny. OF course, all this excited
curiosity. There were just eight cou-
pies and the hostess saw that each
couple was congenially mated. 1t was
lovely suburban place with winding
streets, hills and dales; just the place
for this party.
The men compared watches and
the hostess explained that they were
to walk for one hour, all making the
start together, but at the very first
corner each man was to toss his pen
ny to decide the direction he and his
partner were to take. Heads" meant
to go to the right, tails" to the left.
AT every corner, the penny was to de-
eide the direction. Instructions were
given to write a three-minute descrip.
ton of the walk. The first couple to
arrive at the expiration OF the hour
was to have a reward, and every min
ute overtime was to be paid for In
pennies at the rate Of one a minute,
the money going to the hostess pet
charity fund
A half hour late would bar from
competition in the prize stories. II
was a very jolly, hungry party that
arrived and very amusing stories re-
suited which were read or related by
the "tramps" around the table when a
most bountiful supper was served.
The hostess used small tables, seat
ing four persons at each, and the day
being warm, the repast was served on
the porch, which was made a perfect
bower Of golden rod decked with wild
lavender asters that bloom SO plenti
fully now. All you have to do to find
this wealth Of autumn glory is to &C
by street car or railroad about score
of miles into the country. After sup
per a fire was built in the fireplace
and candles lit, the men smoked and
tie girls discussed winter plans. AL
left at eight o'clock, delighted with
the tramp" party.
Country hostesses In search of &
novelty may be sure Of a delightful
success in giving a party along these
lines.

Lacked Confidence in the Weather Man

their farms and ranches by the wealth
er bureau reports. Early in the morn
ing senators and representatives be-
gin studying the weather bureau maps.
If the reports of the weather from the
section in which they live show that
rain is impending in harvest time, a
large force is ordered to work, by
wire, and the manager told to hustle.
If hay is to be cut and the weather
bureau reports say Storm" the hay
is not cut, but by wire the manager of
the farm or ranch is ordered to hold
the hands" for an emergency call in
case the weather indications are
brighter. Particularly is the weather
map studied in the winter by western
ranch owners.
United States representatives in
congress have many of them much OF
their wealth in cattle, hogs, sheep or
horses. A blizzard means untold loss
to them. If the weather indications OF
that special locality are for bad wealth
er, the herds are rounded up, where
they may be cared for Indefinitely in
case the storm breaks.
Indeed, although not perfect by any
means, the weather bureau prognos
tications have saved the people of the
country millions of dollars year, and
would save them yet other millions il
the people would but heed the warn
ing. 1t is common thing to say:
What does the morning paper say
Rain? Well, I will put my umbrella
away. No rain to-day" Just the
same, five out Of seven times thu

Liquor Men to Reform Their Business

No liquor is to be sold to female
over the bars, nor in private upstairs
rooms or Railways; Objectionable char
acters or language around saloons will
be placed under the ban. Men known
any way under the influence Of liquor
will be refused.
Well, now, you know, all this might
have been written by the w. G. T. u.
and certainly it is yindication Of the
hard work they have been doing for
the betterment of large cities.
To stop the rushing of the growl-
err and the serving of liquor to WON
en- will go long way toward that re-
form which all good, public-spirited
people have long desired.
There is to be an absolute ling
of all saloons from Saturday night
until opening time the next Monday
morning. Members of the association
will aid the authorities in running
down "speak-easies" and the bogus
clubs.
The members of the association
have held several conferences with
Maj. Sylvester, superintendent Of po-
lice, and for the first time in the his
tory of the capital the authorities and
liquor dealers are working hand In
hand to suppress the evil saloons. As
rule the capitals saloons are well
regulated, but in the lower class dis
tricts there have been complaints and
it is these that the association wishes
to wipe out. The association is
backed by ample funds to carry out
the reform at which it aims and Maj
| Sylvester is glad to get it's aid.
