DEMOCRATIC LUCK
 NAY BE BYW0RD

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Nov. 22.-If thiaxs keep on happening as they have in the past few months in this ce0ntsy, the expression democratic luck" is likely to become a byword in politics This will be passing strange, too, because it has been the popular thing for the past twenty yeArs for everybody to regard the democratic party as the unluckiest organization in existence.
 Not only has the cost of living be- gun to go down only a few days af- ter a big democratic victory all over the country. but the democrats and republicans in Washington are now fully realizing the importance of the fact that the size of the member ship of the house of representatives under the new census will be fixed in all probability by a democratic congress. and the reapportionment or congressional districts in several of the most important states accomplish ed by democratic legislatures.
 The constitution privided for the first reapportionment, giving one rep resentative for every 30.000 inhabit- ants. Since then the membership and ratio has been as follows:
 lsoo-14l members. with ratio Of 33,e0e.
 1sle-lSl members and ration oi 35,eo0.
 1S20-2i3 members and ration Of 40,0eo
 1S3e-24O members and ratio of 477ee
 1s4e-2e3 members and a ratio of 70,6Se
 IS5o-2sS member and ratio of S3,42S.
 lSe0-243 members and ratio of 127,3SI.
 1S70-293 members and ratio cf 131,42s.
 lsSo-325 members and a ratio of 151,s11.
 1Ss0-356 members and a ratio of 173ys01
 feOo-3s1 members and a ratio of 193,is7
 The republicans are ready 10 pass the new reapportiOnment act at the short session, beginning next month but it is likely that the democrats will block it until they are in control If it is decided to retain the present membership the ratio will have to be increased to such an extent that several states are certain to lose representatives. The only reason that Maine aad Vermont d'd not have their delegation reduced ten years ago was because of the bitter fight that was put up by their senators, who were aided by the senators from Virginia.
 But it is the state legislatures that win do the redistcict!rg. and the op-

portunity for fAvoring the democratic party in the important states of New
 York. New Jersey, Indiana and Ohio win be very great indeed. Besides. the democrats are certain to gain members in the South on account oi the natural growth of the population.
 With the official court of ballots in Montana, giving the legislature to the democrats, who will name a sue cessor to Senator Carter. the demo crats have now gained nine seats in
 the United States senate. That cuts the present republican majority down from twenty-five to nine. The mini mum strength of the republican insur- gents in the senate has usually been counted as ten, and this clinches the

FOUR SHOT IN FAMILY TRAGEDY.
Husband, Wife, Son and Woman's
Father Killed In CHICAGO.

Chicago. The neighbors of F.
s. Bouton were Mortified when they
discovered the dead bodies of Bou-
ton, his daughter, her husband and
lis little grandson in Bouton's home
at 1884 Cottage Grove avenue.
Each of the four had been killed by
a bullet and the police are convinced
that all of the fatal missiles were
fired by w. j. Myers, the proprietor
of shooting gallery. crack shot. All
the bullets had penetrated the brains
of the victims.
The victims of the shooting are:
w. ]. Myers, forty years old; his
wife, Grace, twenty-six years old;
Ralph Myers, their seven-year-old son,
and F. S. Bouton, father of Mrs. Myers.
Myers had been living apart from
his wife and child and this circum-
stance, together with the fact that the
revolver was found beside him, con-
vinced the police that he shot the
other three and killed himself.
Myers and his wife are said by the
police to have quarreled and separated
several weeks ago and the woman is
declared to have caused his arrest re-
Gently. He is said to have been placed
under bond to keep the peace. Since
that time he had not been living at the
family home.
Only four chambers of the revolver
were empty and this established that
each of the victims was killed by one
bullet.

The flames were first discovered In

apparatus in the city to the scene and
later a cali for help was sent to

paratus in those towns was rushed to
the scene OF the confagration.
Two lumber yards. fifty tenement
houses and the Dover street bridge
were IN flames at one time. Three
pieces of fire apparatus we're lost by
the department because of the rush or
the flames. Several firemen and many
policemen had narrow escapes from
serious injury. Many of the tenement
house dwellers In the fire zone also

spreading flames.
Hundreds of pounds of dynamite
were used to blow up buildings on
both Dover and Albany streets to stop
the progress of the confagration,

Florence Nightingale Dies In London

Florence Nightingale Dies In London.
London. Eng.--Florence Nightingale,
the famous nurse of the Crimean war
and the only woman who ever received
the Order of Merit, is dead at her Lon
don home Although she had been an
invalid for long time, rarely leaving
her room, where she passed the time
in half recumbent position and was
under the constant care of a physician,
her death was somewhat unexpected.
On May II last she celebrated her
ninetieth birthday and was the recipi-
ent of a congratulatory message from
King George. Florence Nightingale
was born on May II, 1920. She was
the first woman to follow a modern
army into battle as nurse, and in the
Crimean war gained the title of AN
gel of the Crimea." At the close of the
war she was enabled by a testimonial
fund amounting to S250,000 to found
an institution for the training OF
nurses, the Nightingale home at ST.
Thomas hospital In 1908 she received
the freedom of the city of London.
King Edward bestowed upon her the
Order of Merit, the most exclusive dis
tinction in the gift of the British SOW
ereign.

A speaker al a meeting of a medical
society in New Jersey declared that
some of the greatest surgeons living
had left sponges. forceps and other in
struments in the abdominal cavities
of persons operated upon, and that the
practise was ''inexcusable." This
makes cheerful reading for the lay
public, especially that portion of 1t that
has hospital experience in prospect;
but the statement of the existence of
this practise is also puzzling from the
fact that 1T must be more or less ex-
pensive practise to the surgeons them
selves to be so careless about losing
good instruments.

EXPERTS WORTH HIGH PRICES
Enormous Charges Are often Justified
by Years Spent in Acquiring
Great Skill.

A great many people cannot under
stand why professional experts charge
such enormous prices for their serv-
ices; why an eminent surgeon. for ex-
ample, should charge $4,000 or even
Sl0,O0O for a single operation. or a
great law specialist like Eliau Root,
5000 for few hours work in cross
examining witness.
lhey do not take into consideration
that the surgeon has spent years in
learning how to perform quickly and
efficiently the difficult operation which
saves life that might have been lost
in less skilled hands.
Much of the training of the special-
list is to enable him to meet the I'M.
usual, the unexpected demand. The
surgeon trains for the rare operation
the possible emergency. He knows
that there are times when it is know
ing what the ordinary surgeon did
not think it worth while to learn that
may save a life.
There are surgeons now living who
never had a dozen emergency cases
In all their experience which called
into play the utmost power and skill OF
which they are capable, but it was
these few extremely dangerous oper
atoms which gave them their great
reputation and enabled them to get
enormous fees.
1t is not the good surgeon, but the
superb operator, the man who knows
a little more about anatomy, who has
little steadier nerve, a more acute
touch, little better education. tina,

DRINK OUTLAY IS LESSENED
Bring In Less Revenue, but
More Sobriety.

George B. Wilson. secretary OF the
United Kingdom alliance. states that
the drink bill OF England for 1908
shows a decrease over 1908 OF s5.-
So7, 9s7 ($a9,475,0oo). On spirits the
decrease was e4.S00.000 (s24. 0oo. 0o0).
with a decrease in consumption of
7.022,775 gallons. On beer the de-
crease was e1.1s6.00o (S5,s4o.0oo).
with decrease In consumption OF
Gas, 1896 barrels. On wine there was
ar increase OF R93,O00 GAGS 00o).
with an increase In consumption q
103,744 gallons. Mr.. Wilson believes
that the increase In the price Of spir-
its and beer due to the budget was
largely responsible for the decreased
consumption. He declares that II
there had been no increase in prices
the reduction Of the total expenditure
for 1909 would have been e11,147,s97
($55. 7s9. 1900.
MI. Wilson estimates that the
liquor drinking class is about IS per
cent Of the tota, population. Accord
ing to these figures the per capita
e4pcuultuIo 40 dppioAihoeSy $oosov
per year. Two-thirds of the total
drink bill, or nearly 100000
oslo. 900. oo0) a week. is said to be
spent by the working classes. IF they
are above the poverty line" says Mr..
Wilson, this wasted expenditure
tends to bring them under It; II they
= under 1t, the. waste aggravates
II difficulties. Drink-caused pow
yis the worst kind of poverty. be-
cause II does not make the best Of
the available resources and is inva-
riably associated with moral and phys
ical degradation. The burden Of the
drink evil falls heavily on the wom-
an; ii brushes the child
Mr.. Wilson believes in the efficacy
of repressive legislation to diminish
the drink evil. However. he admits
that the diminished consumption of
alcoholic liquors is to some extent tho
result of a continuous change in the
habits of the people-"a change" he
marks, that seems likely to be
rmanent."

The report from Pisa that royal en-
gineers state that the inclination of
the leaning tower at that place has in
creased eight inches and that the
structure is likely to collapse will tend
to further increase the number of
those who believe that the tower Was
never intended to be a freak of ma

the yelling of its foundation on one
side. AS drawing card" for tour
lists the famous leaning tower has had
value in addition to the historic con-
siderations, and If 1t should fall there
would doubtless be a demand for its
reconstruction. A modern builder
could give Pisa a leaning tower Of
