 ing to storm a meeting which Sir Ed ward Grey. the foreign secretary was addressing.
 Rolled by the Lefth police. who charged the crowd with batons. the women got their revenge by hurling bricks through the window of the pup lie buildings. Secretary Grey, whose speech was not interrupted to any extent spoke strongly, for the refor- nation of the upper chamber.
 MT. Churchill was able to conclude his speech and undaunted by this ex- perience, held a meeting at Liverpooi this evening in continuation of his Lancashire campaign. He ridiculed the idea that the old age pensions and the navy could be paid for by the adoption of tariff reform and referred to MT Balfour's offer to assist cot ton growing in the empire as very odd in view of the fact that the un- ionists. when in power. although ask ed to do something in this direction. took no action.
 The national council of free churches has Issued a manifesto calling atten- ton to the action of the House of Lords which, it declares. makes re- forms supported by conformists impossible" and calling on people to support the candidates who are fa- vorable to the emancipation of edu- cation from sectarian control.
 The unionists are nominating candidate in every constituency In England and Scotland and with the exception of the seats held by the speaker, the Right Rev. John Wfll- tam Lother. and Joseph Chamberlain. who represents Birmingham. West, either the liberals or the laborites will nominate man to oppose them. The Liberals have decided not to contest MT. Chamberlain's seat on account of his illness.
 In the course of his speech, Mir. Churchill said:
 We are face to face with period when parties necessarily are grouped on such violent lines. when brute force and class hatred, instead o1 forbearance of public spirit are be- coming the characteristics of British public life.'
 Lewis Harcourt compared the pres ent issues with those of the time oi Cromwell and the French Revolution.
 Sir Edward Grey. in his address al Leith, said that he was glad that the House of Lords was barred from re- treat and that there would be no op- portunity for repentance.
 The Liberal peer. Lord Lyveden. de- scribed the lords as rebels against the crown.
 These speeches, made by men like the Foreign Secretary who has hither- to been regarded as representing the staidest whigism, and Lewis Harcourt whose immaculate attire has earned for him the reputation of Dandy oi the House of Commons" indicate the nature of the present political fight which has now begun and Is reflected in the speeches of the demonstrators on the Trafalgar Square as published in the Sunday papers.
 Trafalgar Square speeches were quite equal to the widest utterances of any Socialist demonstration in that historic spot. pr. Cliffords. the rever- ed leader of the Free Church. hoped that the peers would be drowned ir the Red Sea- as was Pharaoh.
 William. H Byles. member of the House of Commons. from Stafford North. said:

 St. Louis, Mo-. Dec. 4.-With Mrs, Dora E. Doxey in the St. Louis city jail in the care of the jail physician, formal announcement was made by the coroner's office late today that the in- quest into the death of William J. Erd- CT will begin Monday. The woman is accused of having killed him by ad- ministering arsenic.
 It is expected that the final report of Dr. W H. Warren. dean of the medi- cal faculty of Washington University, will be ready for presentation to the jury. pr. Warren has already made affidavit that he found arsenic in the body of Erder after partial exami- nation.
 Mrs. Doxey is held practically in- communicate. Her husband, the nurse who accompanied her from Columbus. and her aged father, Jefferson Fuller, Uf Aledo H.. were all denied access to her today, although she Is seemingly i'll. The police declare that her sup posed physical collapse is sham and in this they are supported by the Jail physician.

To pre- vent this lace pulling out of shape when it Is washed 1t is we'll to baste a piece of newspaper under the lace and then stitch the edge of the lace on the machine. Tear out the paper. The simple row of stitching will go a long way toward keeping the lace iu its original shape.

SH0EMAKERS' WAX.
The Surprising Properties of This Pe-
 culiar Substance.

The Surprising Properties of This Pe-
 culiar Substance.
 One of the most apt illustrations ever made by Lord Kelvin was his likening the luminiferous ether to a mass of shoemakers' wax. What Lord Kelvin said of shoemakers' wax may be tested by any boy in a manner that will astonish his playmates. First let it be said that the ether penetrates all space. It Is as rigid as steel and yet so flexible that 1t does not retard the passage of planets through space in the least. 1t Is an invisible substance which travels in waves through all things. Now. to illustrate the nature of such q puradoXical material Lord Kelvin searched everywhere and at last concluded that shoemakers' wax represented 1t best. He made tests. and this is what he found:
 He melted some wax in common glass tumbler. After it had hardened he tried to thrust a lead pencil through 1t. It would not go. Then he placed n coin on the surface of the wax and left 1t there for several days. When he again visited it the coin had sunk to the bottom Of the glass. The wax had closed over 1t, and by lifting up the glass and looking through the bot tom he could see the coin lying there. Had the wax been as deep as well the coin would have gone on sinking until 1t reached the bottom. This proved that the wax would conform only to very slow movements. If he had tried to push it too fast 1t would have re- sisted him.
 An idea struck the scientist. If the wax acted like this toward the coin, how would 1t treat an object which flonted? He accordingly placed a cork in tumbler and poured hot shoe makers wax upon 1t. The wax hard. ened with the cork at the bottom, Yet when Lord Kelvin looked at the bot tom of the glass in day or two he found the cork had disappeared. 1t was somewhere in the mass of wax and probably rising very slowly, but surely, toward the top. Sure enough. after a given pericd of time the corl; l. peeped above the surface of the hard wax, and finally it rose to point where 1t remained half imbedded in the wax. just as 1t would have done in a glass of water. It rose no higher than this. however, and corkscrew probably would not have pulled 1t from the wax Yet Its own buoyancy had raised it un from the bottom through what seemed an impenetrable mass of wax.
 This, in fact. is the peculiarity of shoemakers' waX-that it resists all sudden or quick movements, but is l highly susceptible to very slow and prolonged pressure. If you pressed q ] flatiron hard down on a lump of wax 1 on a table 1t is probable you would make no impression on it, but if you ! left that iron resting on the wax for q 1 day or two you would find the lump flattened out under the iron. So curi ous Is this property of the wax that tuning forks have been cast from | pieces of it. These forks were capa ble of vibration, giving a musical note and being set going by vibration from another tuning fork, yet when one oi them was laid across the open mouth of a jar it slowly collapsed and fell into the jar in a shapeless, sticky mass.

He Would Have Vote Taken on EIec-
 ton of United States Senators.
 Lincoln, Neb., JulX< 14,-WiIliam j. Bryan has written President Taft the following letter:
 President Taft:
 Now that the states are going to vote on the ratification of the amendment specifically authorizing an, income tax, why not give them a chance to vote on an amendment 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 a change in the constitution. Would this not be an opportune time to present the subject to congress? Two constitutional amendments. one au- thori8inG an income tax and the other providing for the popular election of sen- ators, would make yoyr administration memorable, and I pledge you whatever assistance I can render in securing the ratification of these amendments. With great respect, am, yours truly, WILLIAM J. BRYAN.

 isIatures For Ratification.
 Washington, Jaly 14.-After hostile speeches by Senators La Toilette and Beveridge, who declared that the ''in- surgent'' Republicans repudiated the measure, the senate passed the tariff bill by a vote of 45 to 34.
 Republicans voting in the negative were Beveridge of Indiana, Bristow of Kansas, Brown of Nebraska, Burkett of Nebraska, Ciapp of Minnesota, Crawford of South Dakota, Cummins of Wisconsin and Nelson of Minnesota.
 McEnery of Louisiana was the only Democrat recorded in the affirmative.
 The most interesting occurrences of the final sitting were the adoption of amendments by Senator Bradley of Kentucky and Senator Curtis of Kan sas, the former eXempting tobacco in the hand from the internal revenue tax of cents pound and the latter placing a countervailing duty on crude petroleum shipped from countries which impose duty on oil importations from the United States. The action on tobacco was a real surprise. The sen ate has frequently refused to remove the tax.
