ATTACK ON TAFT THWARTED
Resolutions Committee of Deep Water
way Convention Makes Attempt.
HEATED DEBATE ON THE FLOOR
Objectionable section is Stricken Out
After Two Hours Warm Discus
siOn--GOvernOr Deneen TO
the Rescue.
ERD0RSERzEN

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 2s.--An attack on Presi-
dent Taft was thwarted at the final session
OF the Lakes-to- the-Gulf Deep Waterway
convention here this afternoon after the
resolutions committee had asked approval
of it's report. Friends Of the chief execu-
tive rushed to the platform and appealed to
the delegates to eliminate what Governor
Deneen OF Illinois termed IAN Insult"
After two hours warm discussion the OBJ
jectlonable section was stricken out.
The section which caused the heated de-
bate follows:
"And in bitter disappointment and in sor-
row we are compelled to deplore the course
of the chief executive in delaying the crea-
ton of the board provided for in the recent
rivers and harbors act, and in finally ap-
pointing a board which proved unfriendly
to our policy and our project, despite our
patriotic effort TO aid him by information
concerning these physical and commercial
conditions better known 70 us than to
others"
AS soon as Alexander Y. Scott of Mem
phls, chairman Of the committee, completed
the reading Of the resolutions, r. r. Bor-
land of Peoria, ILL.,, made an amendment
striking out the section. He said that as
the board has not yet reported It is not
known that the report on the Mississippi
river waterway will be unfavorable.
Resolutions Defended.
| Leo Rassieur Of st. Louis, In defending
the resolutions, said the president had de-
layed the appointment of the engineers for
five months and that two Of the army
engineers on the board were known TO be
| unfriendly TO the waterway. When Bor-
land withdrew the amendment, Congress-
man Richard Bartholdt OF Missouri re-
newed it.
Congressman Bartholdt said the section
did an injustice TO the president; that
! President Taft by the wording OF the act
was compelled 20 name the chief engineer
OF the army as one Of the board. He ap-
| pealed to the convention 70 vote to elm
| mate the harsh and untrue words.
| Congressman II. I. Rainy OF Illinois made
bitter attack on the army engineers a.
| a whole and said those on the board were
/ pIejudiced against the waterway. He said
] the resolution as read should be adopted
/ Governor Deneen characterized the sec
| ton as an insult" and declared that
/ President Taft had attracted the attention
OF the world to the project by making q
/ trip down the Mississippi river last year
He predicted that next year the convention

Here we have chief Donahue IN the act
Of not wearing a moustache. The question
arises. is the removal Of a moustache 70
Be considered the assuming Of a disguise?
chief Donahue declines to reply TO the
question. The authorities differ. II Is ad-
mitted by some Of the worlds greatest de-
tectives that the growth OF a moustache
may b. termed a disguise. Their reason
ms IS based. of course, on the assumption
that the mOustache really changes the APP
pearance ot the wearer. tending toward
the deception Of those who would otherwise
recognize tho person thus decorated
Admitting that their reasoning is correct,
then is not the removal Of q moustache.
On that the act OF removal renders the per-

There are other sides 20 this modification
Of the facial aspects OF Chief Donahus.

Home Treatment for Ordinary Wounds

Home Treatment for Ordinary Wounds
While gunshot and toy pistol
wounds are nowadays treated as soon
as possible by skilled surgeons there
are hosts of minor casualties that
may be treated at home. An ordinary
burn should be at once covered with
cotton or cloth soaked in oil, vaseIine
or white of an egg. Failing access to
these, flour, starch, baking soda, or
even moist clean clay may be applied
in order to exclude the air and re-
duce Inflammation. Large burns on
the hands should be tightly bound
with cloth moistened in any bland oil
or vaseline.
A tourniquet should never be ap-
piled above a burn. For either cut or
burn, the wound should be first
cleansed in water that is absolutely
clean. In case of bleeding from
minor injuries. ice applied will help
clots remain. Torn flesh should be
held together until the arrival of med
ical aid. If finger is severed, hold it
in position at once, as the surgeon
may be able to save 1t on his arrival.
Blood may be stopped from flowing
after cuts, If pressure is applied di.
rectly on the opening, by tying an ar
terry, by plugging the whole wound,
with a clean cloth or by ligaturing an
artery above the cut.
If clothing catches afire, warn the
person not to run, but to lie down
instead as the draught of fame is
upward. Wrap the person on fire
In a blanket, shawl or heavy coat and
roll him over and over to smother the
flames. Do not tear the burned cloth.
