The Stormy Petrol OF Chicago.


The most pugnacious Congressman
who has yet appeared upon the scene is
Representative James r. Mann, of Chi
cago. He has been the stormy petrol
of the Republican House. Whenever
there is not a plentiful supply of trou-
BILE close at hand Mr. Mann gets un-
easy, and he is not over particular
whether he tits against Republican
or Democrat.
His first act after he arrived in Wash
ington was to serve notice that he
wantedS a reorganization of the Post
Office Department at the forthcoming
session. He says he will ask the House
at the first opportunity to discharge the
Post Office and Post Roads Committee
from consideration of his reorganization
bill. That is aimed at Representative
John ". Weeks, of Massachusetts, its
Chairman.
The crying need for efficiency engi-
neers'' in that great business establish
ment of the Government is conceded.
Nearly the entire House of Representa-
tives will agree with Mr.. Mann that his
own bill or some other should be en-
acted into law. Whatever Postmaster
General Hitchcock may have saved by
the practice of economy during the past
year there is still room for very large
savings 1t is claimed that the Post
Office Department is one of the most
WaStelul departments unOer the Gov
ernment. Commissions galore and eX-
psrts galore have studied the situation,
and the time should not be far off for
some general legislation putting the
Department on a better business basis.
Representative Mann thinks it un-
necessary to increase the rates on sec
ond-class mail matter. IF Congress
will enact my BILL" says he, "eliminat-
ing certain Bureaus and economizing
the work, the postal deficit will disap-
pear, and there will speedily be a suff1-
cient surplus to warrant the authorize
tion of penny postage for first-cIass
mail"
Chairman Weeks has tackled the re-
organization problem sufficiently to
know that it is a gigantic task. He
would have made further progress with
IL last Winter had not the considera-
ton of the postal savings bank bill been
forced upon his committee. At almost
every session for several years the fray
has centered upon the rates for second
class mail. The President favors in
creasing those rates, and so does Post
master-General Hitchcock That en-
countered tremendous opposition last
year from very formidable galaxy of
publishers, and after quite prolonged
hearings, at which there were decided
ly spirited exchanges, the matter was
dropped.

Since John
Quit Drinking
BY John's Wife

I'm the hsppiest little woman,
In all this little town;
And my merry isugh and singing.
Takes the place OF sigh and frown.
For JOHN HAS QUIT HIS DRINKING
And 10 Ike himself once more.
And the world Is just paradise
With such happiness in storei
One day Tread some verses
''Mnry's Miracle" the name,
And said, that's John exactly,
And III send and get the same.l
So sent for GOLDEN REMEDY,
Gas sly as sly could be-
And put II In Johns supper
And put It in his tea.
And It didn't taste little bit;
Had no odor, so, you see
1t was smoOthest kind of sailing
For little Doctor Me.
And watched and prayed and waited,
CAnd cried some, too, guess),
And didn't have the greatest faith,
I'm ashamed now to confess.l
And John never thought minute,
He was being cured OF drink,
And soon he's as well as any one,
1t makes me cry TO think!
Just makes me cry for gladness,
I'm so proud to be his Wife
Since he is cured of drinking,
And leads nice, new life.
"Since John he quit a-drinktngi''
j can't say IL times enOughl
And hates and loathes liquor
As he would poison stuff.
And when say my prayers at night
AS thankful as can be
i pray for John the most OF all
Then GOLDEN REMEDY.

from the burning timber, they found
themselves entirely surrounded by the

.EDICT SANCTIONS
DECOLLETTE DRESS
POPE WILL ALLOW CATHOLIC
WOMEN TO JIsPENsE WITH
scAPuLARs.

Milwaukee, Wis, May IA spe-
cial edict from the pope will soon be
read in American Catholic churches,
according to a statement at the resi-
dence Of Archbishop Mesmer, permit
ting Catholic women who wish to wear
peek a boo waists, decolIette corsages
or low cut yokes, to dispense with the
wearing of the scapular under such
circumstances.
The wearing of the scapular has
formerly prevented the women of the
church from weGring the low cut
gowns. The letter of the pope follows:
THE Holy Father, always, always
interested in his children, Is DESTROYS
that Catholic women who take an ac-
tive part in social affairs, be not re-
stricted in the dress proper for social
requirements by any open insignia Of
their faith, and therefore dispenses
them altogether If they desire. This
edict, however, does not mean that
they need not be enrolled in the order.
for that obligation still holds, but after
they are once enrolled they may put
aside the scapular and in its place
carry small medal OF the blessed
virgin in their pockets or wherever
they please

Washington. May Ex-senator Pur-

from the senate committee on Indian
affairs on the bill providing for the
opening of 100000 acres in the Fort
Berthold Indian reservation in North
Dakota.
The SABBATH provision enabling pros
pective settlers to register anywhere

bill and the old law substituted. The
prohibition clause was retained, also
the feature providing for the payment
of $3.50 per acre to Indians for school

Washington, May 1s-sereno e.
Payne, author of the tariff law which
bears his name entered into a vigorous
defense of that measure in the house
yesterday. He declared that the re-
publican party's pledge to revise the
tariff downward had been fulfilled and
that from whatever viewpoint you look
at it the law shows a reduction in
rates; there We're some increases for
which no apologies are made; they
were necessary for the revenue: the
commodities on which the rates were
reduced represent ten times the value
of the luxuries on which the rates were
increased; it was true downward re-
vision but the law has been misrep-
resented, he said, by politicians with
campaign capital to make and by
tradesmen grasping for pelf The high
cost of living, he declared, is due to

EIGHT STUDENTS
DIE IN Mill POND
PARTY, OUT ROWING IN TWO
BOATS, ONE SPRINGS A LEAK,
ALL CROWD INTO ONE
BOAT SINKS.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, May Is. Eight
high school students, six girls and two
boys, lost their lives yesterday while
boating on what is known as the old
paper mill dam at Huntington Mills,
about twenty miles below this city.
The dead are:
Maud sutIiffe, aged IL years. OF
ToWnline.
Caroline Rooms, aged 16, of Harvey
vile.
Ruth Ronham, aged Is, Townline.
Iris Davenport, aged is, WATERFOWL.
Rachel Thompson, aged 16, Town
Hill.
Madeline Good, aged IL, WATERFOWL.
Robert Minnich, aged Is. of Rooms
vile.
Ray Dodson, aged IT, Paramount.
Twelve students of the Huntington
high school secured two boats at the
noon hour and started for row on
the dam. The dam is nearly half a
mile in width and when the two
crafts had reached the center of the
body of water 1T was noticed that one
of them had sprung leak. The two
boats were then pulled together by
the young men in the party and an
effort was being made to transfer the
girls from the leaky boat to the safer
one. The last one Of the party had
scarcely set foot in the boat when IL
began sinking, owing to the combined
weight of the party.
The girls were helpless to save
themselves and the boys of the party,
with the exception Of Dodson, being
expert swimmers, struck out for the
shore, which they reached In saftey.
Minnick then went back in an en-
deavor to save the girls. took Miss
Davenport off the overturned boat to
which she clungs but both sank before
reaching shore.
