CONGRESS Wants coin
Especial To The Tribune.)

San Antonio, Tex, Dec ITO make
the Trans Mississippi Commercial
Congress really a state-supported or
ganiZation, thus providing a fund for
more effective work, was one Of the
results Of the recetn meeting of that
body held in this city. 1t was decided
to start the movement to create a
fund of $4,000 to $4,000 to more ef-
fectively carry into results the recon-
mendations of the Trans'Mississippi
Congress to the National Congress.
This amount will be Furnished to the
Commercial Committee of the Trans
Mississippi organization, which COM
mittee maintains permanent quarters
at Washington, to afford celebrity to
the passage of the proposed laws.
1t is new plan which it is hoped
will result in direct good, and the
movement will emphasize the neces-
sity for material aid from the western
states. Heretofore, for the twenty-one
years of it's existence, personal and
voluntary contributions have support
ed the Congress. 1t is not salaried

est .ofticer, receiving pay only for his
services Immediately prior to and dur
ing the annual convention. 1t is pro-
posed to have each western state
in the organization con-
tribute, preferably by legislative ap-
it's pro rata share to the
fund.- The organization
itself and the work it is now doing
has reached that point where it is too
large for individual contributions.

The origin Of the red shirt"-worn
as a blouse by English women in the
sixties, when Garibaldi was Il popular
idol throughout Great Britain-is suffi~
GENTLY curious. When the celebrated
filibuster was warning in the South

obtain distinctive and, above all,
economical uniform for his followers.

these garments, worn by the "sala-

six DAY RACE
IS HARD GRIND

New York, Dec. 5.-All fourteen
teams remaining in the six day bicycle
race were tied with 522 miles, three
laps. This is only one lap less than
six miles better than the former rec
ord made by Anderson and Vanoni
in 1909.
Although the pace set all day and
/ last night was record breaker only
one team had dropped out at mid.
night.
The terrific clip, however, proved
too much for German and Verlinden,
the French-Belgian team and they re.
tired during the seventh hour after
having been left hopelessly in the
rear.
The average speed during the day
was about twenty-one miles an hour,
but between ten o'clock and midnight
several stringing sprints were start
ed and new marks were made every
five minutes. The most prominent
factors in these frantic attempts to
steal a lap were Rutt and Stoldt,
Root and Moran and MacFarland and
Clark and Walthour.

is very grave following a hurried op-

duchess has assumed full charge of
nursing the patient under the direc-
ton of the physicians, who are also
constantly in attendance. Almost with

FLYING IN DREAMS.
4 Sensation Like That Which Some
times Precedes Death.

4 Sensation Like That Which Some
times Precedes Death.
The sensation Of flying is one Of the
earliest to appear in the dreams OF
childhood. 1t seems to become less
i frequent after middle age. Beaunis
; states that in his case it ceased at the
age of fifty. 1t is sometimes the last
sensation at the moment Of death.
10 rise. to fall, to glide away has
often been the last conscious sensation
recalled by those who seemed to be
dying. but have ufterward been brought
back to life. Picron has noted this
sensation at the moment OF death in a
number of cases, usually accompanied
by a sense of we'll being. The cases he
describes were mostly tuberculous and
included individuals Of both sexes and
with atheistic as well as religious be-
liefs.
In all the last sensation to which ex-
preston was given was one Of flying.
of moving upward. In some death was
peaceful. in others painful. In one
case a girl died clasping the iron bars
of the bed. in horror Of being borne
upward.
Pieron associates this sensation with
the similar sensation Of rising and float
ing in dreams and with that Of NOV
ing upward and resting on the air ex-
perienced by persons in the ecstat1c
state. In all these cases alike life Is
being concentrated in the brain and
central organs, while the outlying dis
tricts Of the body are becoming numb
and dead.
Dream flight, it is necessary to note. |
is not usually the sustained fight Of a |
bird or an insect. and the dreamer |
rarely or never imagines that he is |
borne high into the air. Hutchinson |
states that of all those whom he has !
asked about the matter hardly one |
has ever known himself to make any |
high flights in his dreams. One al
most always flies low. with skim
ming manner, slightly. but only slight
Iy. above the heads of pedestrians
eaunis-from his own experience
describes typical kind of dream
flight as a series Of light bounds at
one or two yards above the earth. each
bound clearing from ten to twenty
yards, the dream being accompanied
by a delicious sensation of ease and |
as we'll as lively satisfac-
ton at being able to solve the problem
Of aerial locomotion by virtue of ST.
perior organization alone.
Lafcadio Hcarn somewhat similarly
describes in his "ShadOwings' typi-
cal and frequent dream Of his own as
a series of bounds in long parade
curves. rising to Il height Of some tNen-
ty five feet and always accompanied by
the sense that 4 new power had been
revealed. which for the future would
be a permanent Observation-Disclosures.

A Lottery Romance.

A few years ago, as the date for the
drawing of the annual Christmas lot
terry at Madrid was approaching, a poor
mechanic o. Corunna was awakened
three consecutive nights by the num-
Der 125.SGo. apparently spoken in his
ear. So impressed was he by the repe-
tition Of the incident that he wrote
down the number and jocularly said
to his wife. 'TEat number will win
the first prize in the great Lottery.
Then why don't you buy the ticket?'
his wife answered jokingy as she
looked at the figures. "Why. see. If
you add them together they just come
to my age. shall be thirty-one on
Christmas day" The ticket, after much
trouble, was found lit had been reject
ed few minutes earlier by wealthy
citizen of Corunna) and bought, and
before many days had passed the me-
chanic and his wife were made jubi-
liant by the news that the ticket had
won the first prize of f2oO,O00-Lon-

r. Baker case, in the district court late
Friday afternoon and this morning. In
an effort to convince the jury that
Driver had threatened to kill Baker.
and was therefore preparing to do so
with knife he had in his hand, at the
time OF the tragedy, as the defense
claims. attorneys representing Baker
are placing witnesses on the stand to
testify. ~ they do testify, that Driver
told different people prior to the trag-
edy that he would "cut out Baker's"-
well, "intestines" is q more euphemts-
tic word than the witnesses use, but
it means the same thing. It was also
sworn that Driver threatened to "cut
out his heart"-naming Baker in the
threat.
In some instances these threats were
carried to Baker, showing that he had
knowledge Of them at the time Of the
trouble the day Of the tragedy. 1t was
proved, however, in one instance at
least, that Baker did not take tho
threats seriously, or, at least that he
laughed at them. Four witnesses have
testified to these threats thus far.
Defendant Baker was on the stand
today and swore that Driver was i'm
plicated in the loose handling Of cash
and tho disappearance Of lap robes.
When accused, he threatened to cut out
Bahor's intestines and drew a knife,
which - opened viciously. Then Baker,

rows Of chairs against the wall. 1t is
new idea at the White House.
Innovations at the executive mansion
are frequent these days. Somebody
seems to feel there has been too much

And besides, some Of those who at this
particular time are drawn there with a
view Of ascertaining what pickings
there may be for good party men who
have had unfortunate contact with the
plebiscite have feelings that ought to
be protected.
It's so embarrassing while one Is
waiting to tell the big chief that at last
he can see his way clear to serve the
country as Judge, a diplomat or head
OF bureau to have some vulgar per-
son butt in with grin and say: "Hello.

sAREs SIN TO SAVE HUSBAND.
Indiana Woman Says Oil Man Was
Victim Of Jealousv.

Vincennes, Ind, Dec. 3.-Mrs. Menlo
Moore testified in defense of her hus-
band, theater owner, now on trial
for the murder of Charles E. Gibson.
a wealthy oil operator. Her testimony
was given in support Of the plea that
Moore shot Gibson while insane as the
result of jealousy.
Mrs. Moore testified that Gibson had
pursued her persistently. Gibson, she
said, told her that her husband was
not true to her and offered to prove it
by taking her to country place on a
certain night last July. where, he said,
her husband had an appointment with
a woman.
She accepted and they drove in a
buggy to barn on a lonely road. Her
husband was not there. Mrs. Moore
testified that Gibson attacked her and
thereafter forced her to accompany him
on many trips by threatening to ex-
pose her to her husband.
Previous to this time, Mrs. Moore
testified, Gibson had made several at
tempts to cause breach between her
husband and herself. Once he called
her on the telephone and said her hus-
band was with two women in his office.
He urged that she come down town to
catch them. When she arrived. Moore's
office was locked, but Gibson was wait
ing for her and said her husband had
just left.
Before Mrs. Moore testified there
were read in court several letters, some
Of them addressed to Moore and others
to his wife. All OF them were Of the
sort that would arouse Moore's jeal-
ousy and none were signed. Mrs. Moore
testified that her husband demanded an
explanation and that she confessed to
her relations with Gibson.
