The Mastery of Thought.

Economy is one of the essentials
to success. 1t matters not how great
ones earnings may be, If no PEN
nies are laid by there will be no
counting of dollars to a fellows cred
it. From childhood children should
be tauught lessons of thrift and the
valaue of saving, but there is diff
ference between economy and stin-
giness, and it is very essential that
kid should never become a tight
wad. There Is an excess which de-
feats the aim and is the cause of
loss and misery. That economy
which prevents ranchman from
spending money to properly house
his stock during the winter is para
doxical. 1t is saving of dollars and
loss of dollars by the saving. That
the burning of fuel in winter which
results in a cold house and sick
ness in the family and probably
death, is niggardly stinginess, which
is criminal.
1t is the saving of few dollars
in the coal bill and paying perhaps
hundred or more to the doctor
or undertaken. There is no econ
omy in cheap things generally. A
bit of machinery that is needed
about the farm should be the best.
A cheap, poor moving machine pur-
chased from some mail order house,
may break down when needed the
most, and the result is the loss of
tons of hay, several times the value
of the machine. Poor articles wear
out rapidly and are likely to give
out at time when most needed.
and are a continual source OF ex-
pense. A poor breed of stock is an
other illustration.
Poor, bony horses eat more than
ways find ready sale. while the raw
bones cannot be disposed of at any
price. The same is true of hogs,
sheep and all classes of domestic
stock. A poor lot of animals should
be gotten rid of as soon as posi-
BILE. They are expensive and 1t is
poor economy to keep them. 1t Is
in looking after the saving of a
penny and being blind to the dol
lar that could be gained that is the
trouble with many folks. Savages
have no idea of economy. They can
not forego a small pleasure for a
greater one a little farther off. 1t
is the ability to think out these
things that make the white man su-
perior to the barbaraian.
The secret of knowledge is in
thinking and the power to make com
PARSONS. One OF the drawbacks of
many schools Is the teaching, the
examining OF rules and facts without
com mbining with them the Importance
OF cause and effect, and this Is
probably the ono thing most OF all
that has made our modern educa-
ton such a farce. 1t Is the think
er who wins in life and In the
workshop or store, on the farm or
ranch, anywhere or in any situa-
tion where brains are needed. In
's the active, keen and careful think
er who forges to the front. Our
present generation Is not taught to
think about anything and that Is
v hat ails them.

GIRL AND BROOM
FLOOR INTRUDER
TWO SUSPECTED BURGLARS
CAPTURED BY WOMEN
Mother Supplements Daughters Effort
by Bringing RoIIing-pin Down
on Victims Heads-Men
Rummaging Rooms

Two young men, when the police be-
lieve to be the pass key" burglars
who for weeks have made serious in
roads on the valuables of citizens away
from home, were captured yesterday
by a pretty woman with a broom.
While she held one of the men at bay
with the household weapon her mother
notified the police and the arrests fol-
lowed. AtNpolice headquarters the men
gave their names as A. ]. Grove and
Mark Dunn.
Grove, who was found in the act of
carrying away the cloths of a roomer
in the house, is charged with burglary,
while Dunn Is held on suspicion. The
men will not talk and the police are
making efforts to learn where they
made their headquarters.
Grove and Dunn applied earlier in
the day at the rooming house conduct
ed by Mrs. Annie Williams and her
daughter, Mrs. S. e. Palmer, at 1914
East Third street, for a room. Before
registering they told Mrs Williams
they desired to "clean up and were
shown to a room on the second floor.
Mother and daughter waited below in
the hallway for their return, but be-
came suspicious at their delay and
crept softly upstairs. The door of the
room they had just rented stood half
open and the women could see only
one man inside. Hearing a sound in an
adjoining room the mother, armed with
a rolling pin, climbed out of window
to the roof of a one-story building
adjoining their premises, while the
daughter fiourished a broom in the
hallway.
The intruder saw the woman and
rolling pin at the window and tried to
escape into the hallway.
Mrs. Palmer whacked him on the
head with the broom. He dropped.
Mis-. Williams came through the win
dow and before Grove could regain his
feet she supplemented her daughter s
blow with another from her rolling pin.
Grove staggered to his feet and raised
his hands in the air in token of sub
mission. Mrs. williams left the man
in the custody of her daughter and
called Patrolman Henry Ditzan of the
traffic squad, who arrived at the house
Just as Dunn, seeing his companion's IS
predicament, was crawling on his
hands and knees down the stairs.
Shortly after the arrest of the men
numerous thefts of clothes were report
ed to the police from nearby rooming
houses. Frank Higgins, who rooms at
125 East Third street, said that he
passed a man answering Dunn's de-
scription in the hallway yesterday
morning and returning a few hours
later found that his room had been
entered and two suits of cloths and a
number of new ties stolen.

QUAKER CITY STRIKE
CONFERENCES FAIL
PREPARATIONS CONTINUED TO
EXTEND IDLENESS
ciaIs Still Far Apart on Recog-
nition of Union Or
ganization

PHILADELPHIA, March 1S-Al-
though several conferences were held
during the day and tonight by the in
termediaries interested in securing 9
settlement of the strike against the
Philadelphia Rapid Transit company,
the officials of the company and the
leaders of the strikers appear to be as
far from reaching an agreement as
when the men left the cars almost a
month ago.
w. d. Mahon, president Of the street
car mems union, stated that the idea
that the union would be satisfied if the
company reinstated the 17S employees
whose dismissal precipitated the strike,
was a misconception. He said the union
would not be a party to any agree
ment which did not properly protect the
men in their organization.
The committee of ten today continued
it's preparations for statewide strike,
and announced it had received further
Endorsements from all parts of the
state.

HOUSES DEFIES LAW
Tells Chicago Inspectors He viii Con-

carcasses on the
Market
Isneoial to The Herald. ]

CHICAGO, March 18.-Charles Bic
gel, owner of three slaughtering houses
for horses on the outskirts of the city,
today defied inspectors from the health
department and said he would sell
horse meat in Chicago and stock up
every market he could find with choice
steaks from equine carcasses.
Acting on information that horse
meat was being shipped into the city,
j. r. Kelso and C. b. OBrien, meat
inspectors, visited Biegels plant. The
slaughtering houses are located on a
farm three-quarters of a mile from
the western outskirts of the city. Three
big dogs guarded the entrances to the
slaughter houses. Carcasses of several
recently slaughtered horses could be
seen. An old rheumatic horse with
swollen limbs that had just been pur-
chased was found in the yard.
Are you going to kill that horse for
food?" asked Inspector Kelso
"Of course l am," was the answer
I'm going to invade the Chicago mar
ket, too. I slaughter twenty horses
here every day 10 ..l...i

DAYTONA, Fla, March 1S.-At 8

sued the following statement;
Senators Daniels condition has not
changed during the last twenty-four
hours. His pulse, temperature and
kidney conditions are satisfactory.

AT 1890 a. m. Senator Daniel had
sufficiently improved to answer yes"

him. He warmly squeezed the hand
of Mai. Patton, one of his closest
friends, then shortly afterward again
passed into a state of coma.

MINERS SCALE COMMITTEE
is STILL UNABLE TO AGREE

CINCINNATI, March 1S.-Relief in
the form of a two-days' recess came
tonight to the operators and miners OF
the central competitive district, who
have been battling here for the last
ten days.
Following the report of the scale
committee to the joint conference of
miners and operators that it could not
agree, the conference referred the mat
ter back to the scale committee and
the committee announced 1t would
meet at 1030 Monday morning.

journment:

advance in wages on and after April 1.

please The conclusion of this con-
ference will be in favor of the miners.

tives of 1000 fremen and the general
managers of forty y-seven western rail-

would continue tomorrow. That the

INSURGENTS APPEAR IN
COLONIAL DANES SOCIETY
Southern Member Plans to Lead Fight
Against Proposed Change in
Constitution

WASHINGTON. March 1S.-Insur-
gency is not confined to congress. The
spirit has invaded the ranks of the
National Society of Colonial Danes
of America, and lively fight is prom
ised at the national convention which
begins here April 27.
According to the constitution of the
order, each of the original colonial
states and the District of Columbia
can send five delegates, while the
twenty-five non-colonial states can
send only one each. Only the women
from the colonial states can vote on
constitutional questions, and a member
from a southern state has prepared a
resolution to prevent the constitution
from being changed.
The "insurgents" have hoisted the
flag of mo taxation without represen-
tation," and will oppose the colonial
organization in the convention.

CANNON, FACING
Ills WELLINGTON,
SEEMS DOOMED
On Every Side Defeat of
Gar of House Today
Is Prophesied
SPEAKER MAY RESIGN
Champ Clark, Leader of
Minority, Favored as
His Successor
Especial to The Herald.l

"AS1lNGION, March IL.
w 1t is the night before
W Waterloo for Joseph C..
Cannon. An empire is about to
fall. A Democratic Blucher and
an insurgent Wellington, with
their allied forces, are on the eve
of victory which will stem the
march OF autocracy in affairs
legislative at the American capi-
tai.
This has been a day>of days in
political history. AT 5 o'clock this
evening the house of representa-
tives took an adjournment after
a session lasting continuously
since yesterday noon, first agree
ing to take a vote Immediately
following reconvening tomorrow
on the question of superseding
the existing committee on rules
with an enlarged committee to be
selected by the house itself and
eliminating the speaker from
membership thereon.
@ On all sides tonight - by the
staunchest friends of Speaker
Cannon as we'll as others-it is
conceded that the Cannon organi-
zaticn is whipped. The truce
sanctioned by adjournment after
more than twenty-four hours Of
superb fighting merely postpones
the moment of contrasted victory
and anguish.
By Monday the speakership of
the house may present a vacancy.
That Cannon will resign the posi-
ton as presiding officer of the
popular branch of congress is de-
clared by closest friends to be the
most probable of the eventualities
in the event that matters trans
pire as indicated at this writing.
Cannon realizes his defeat. His
friends are reconciled to it. The
only CLEAN of satisfaction on the
part of the "Old Guard" lies in
the thought that with the elimi-
nation of Cannon from the politi-
cal equation the Republican party
will be placed in a good position
for the coming congressional
campaign.
Democrats are placed where
they must collaborate with in
surgent Republicans to bring a
change Immediately. They are
taunting Republican colleagues
tonight with the charge that the
latter are forced to sacrifice the
Grand Old Man" in order TO
square themselves with the coun-
try.

with the fate of Speaker Cannon still
in doubt.
The result is nothing more or less
than a drawn battle.
When the final roll call came 1854 Re-
publicans voted to postpone further
action on the Norris amendment until
tomorrow, and $50 Democrats and Re-
publican insurgents voted TO continue;
With tine regular Republicans voted
fourteen of the insurgent following OF
Norris, who left him and sided with
the majority for a postponement. The
result, they said, conveyed no Sig
nificance and did not mean that they
had deserted the insurgent cause.
From one of the most intimate
friends of the speaker came the start
ling statement that if the Norris reso-
luton was passed, Speaker Cannon
would resign and that the regulars
would vote with the Democrats for
the election of Champ Clark as speak
er rather than side with the insurgents
for the selection of one of their
number This was denied by other
friends of the speaker.
The lull in the long battle apparently
was welcomed Dy DOln 5luSS, dlliOuSh
there was not a cheer of victory
from either. When the speaker put
the motion to adjourn a general chorus
of ayes came from the Republican
side. The Democrats made no pro-
test, and there was no answer to the
call for the noes.
Members File Out Wearlly
The house, for the first time in the
present session, had almost its full
membership on the floor. When the
gayel fell the members rose wearily
from their seats and filed out through
the Uttered aisles.
In five minutes the scene of the
record breaking endurance struggle
was cleared of its 400 principals, the
galleries were emptied of the hun
dreds of spectators who occupied
them constantly for nearly thirty
hours. and only a score of janitors
moved about, cleaning up the evil
dences of the fray.
No such series of scenes have been
witnessed in congress in recent years.
'rhe performance embraced every ele-
ment from the serio-tragic effort to
wrest from the speaker the chief source
of his power to the songs, jokes and
tests that the members banded dur
