WashinGton.-Two more disputes be-
tween the President and Congress-
were revived Friday when the House
committee on appropriations reported
the sundry civil appropriation bill. One
was in regard to the Limitation of the

The committee incorporated in the
bill the same limitation on the use Of
the secret service operatives as was
included In the bill which became a law
last winter. II was this Limitation that
drew forth the severe criticism of the
President in his annual message last
December. For the enforcement of
section 20 of the Hepburn bill s350.0O0
is appropriated. the same as last year.
The sum of $3.50. 900 was voted a
year ago. only after the President had
written the speaker and had called
several members to the White House
to consult on the subject. Testimony
taken by the committee showed that
during the seven months Of the pres
cnt year only Sil 900 of the fund had
been expended and in this amount
was included the salary of thirteen eX.

ROueh House at Cusick

There was very rough house in Joe
Cusick's saloon one night last week. A
lot of men and women congregated in
the joint early in the evening and began
to tank up on Cusick whiskey. After
midnight the booze began to take effect
and the crowd became more hilarious
than any of the reds ever dared to do.
They shot up the house, destroying the
back bar and most of the windows in
the front of the building according to
the reports received here.
The better element of the little town
are going to take steps to see that such
an affair does not occur again. They
have served notice that all lewd women
must leave the town and stay away from
Cusick in the future or there will be
things doing.
