an ANTI-MEAT CAT.


Caruso high Cwas not heard yesterday
afternoon at the anti-beef mass meeting
which was held in Union Square under the
auspices of Mrs. Anita Comfort Brooks.
Neither was Tetrazzini's Nor was the
crowd regaled with even one OF Harry
LADDERS songs.
Mrs. Brooks said she was heartbroken
to think that she could not keep the
promise she had made TO the people re-
garding the voices OF these stars but that
the man who owned the records which
she had engaged. as well as the brass in
strument which went with them, insisted
that it was too cold to oomenalsts
The crowd. however. seemed to find
enough entertainment in gazing at Mrs.
Brooks's famous anti-meat mauve cloth
frock, beplumed heliotrope picture hat,
assorted earrings and white fox furs
and in listening to Mrs. Sophia LoebinRer's
account Of how she braved the officials
and found them sadly lacking in enthu-
siasm. They weren't a bit unpleasant
them Mrs. Brooks told them about her
pink Persian kitten that abe brought all

and when ! want to show him on he
wears ermine robes and a gold crown.
You can tell by that how much I think
Of him, and yet I have compelled him
to 20 without meat for three weeks.
Now 1 want every one OF you TO send
q post card every day TO President Taft
continued Mrs. Brooks, asking him to
put a stop to this monopoly on the part
OF a few men. Give him a bath OF post
cards--red, blue, green and yellow. Per-
haps then he will see that the people are
in earnest"
Mrs. Brooks then introduced a tall
klnUA u0,YnU man vwhn aaiA that thAra
was really only one solution TO the meat
problem, and that was to petition Congress
to place an export duty on meat.
One or two men suggested that such an
act would be unconstitutional, but the
tall young man went right on and ex-
planned how outrageous II was that Ameri-
can meat should be sold at several cents
a pound less in Germany and France than
IL was here.
Several professional promoters Of origi-
nal schemes OF anti meat diet begged for
the PLATFORM at this point, and Mrs. Brooks
let each one have chance.

to a third more business than was recorded in
1909. In, fact, we look for a banner year"
But 1t is with the North Atlantic trade that
the representations mostly concern themselves.
So vast is the community drawn on by the
cruising steamships that they would be as
sured Of goodly lists in almost any case. But
where would the passengers come from to fill
the great express ships bound for northern Eu-
rope If America were in the doldrums? The
sad sea waves answer "Where?" Considering
that the minimum saloon rate just now by
such vessels as the Lusitania and Mauretania
is SIPS, by the Kronprinzessin Cecelie $117.50,
by the Adriatic and Kaiserin $112.50 and by
the Provence sos, it is not difficult to realize
that a great deal Of money is spent in ocean
fares alone.
According to the steamship men the opti-
mists are to have their wish this year and their
cheerful yammerings will not be without foun-
dalton. From present indications the big
ships will be going out well filed some weeks
before mid-May, when the huge hegira begins
to reach an acute stage. April, the "intermedi-
ate season." usually a time to indicate how
later travel will be, bids fair this year to be an
unusually brisk month for outward bounders
Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1910-05-05

In order to avoid further generalities at this
point figures are inserted here to give a prac-
tical idea as to the capacity of several Of the
popular floating hotels, what the rates are at
the beginning of the rush and also the approx
mate lump sum paid by saloon voyagers when
the liner goes out full. Also the steamship
officers we're sounded for the purpose of ascer-
tanning how the advance bookings were for
sailing in April. Everywhere the answer was,
We'll be pretty well crowded by sailing day"
The total Of saloon fares is computed by
means Of an average fare figured out by the
steamship men. The average on the Kron.
prinzessin Cecelie was about $235. 1t will be
seen by the total that travellers by half a
dozen of the big liners taken in a bunch spend
a sum vel. over half q million dollars before
the start. There Is Of course a big sum ex-
pended also on these ships for second-cabin
fares.
These, it is estimated, would amount, In
the case Of the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria, for
instance, to $4,000 on the basis Of 800 pas
sengers at an average fare of $65. Thus the
fares for cabin passengers by the Hamburg
boat would total $130,5O0. The Kaiserin, the

of any sort, but Ballinger, like most
of the westerners in public life, is ac-
counted an excellent horseman. Horse,
back riding is also the vent Of Fred
Warner Carpenter, secretary to the
president.
The members of the United States
senate are almost without exception
subscribers to the vacation habit. Sen
ator Elkins and Senator Warren are
famous horsemen, and Senator Bourne
of Oregon, and a number of his fellow
statesmen, have proven their prowess
as golfers. There are many men in
public life who regard some form OF
''roughing 1t" as the only sure means
of rejuvenation. Senator Beveridge Is
one Of these. In his estimation moth
ing can compare for pure enjoyment
with a camping and fishing trip in the
Maine woods.
Senator Dolliver doesn't care for
much in the line of sports, except
fishing. He will sit for hours along
the Des Moines river and angle for
bass. or perch OF pickerel. He often
bitches up George" the Dolliver fam
lily horse, who would never take a
prize at an equine beauty show, and
drives out to "The Slide" a we'll
known fishing place along the river,
to spend the day. Roosevelt used to
invite the Iowa senator to go horse
back riding with him, but he always
fought shy.
Governor Hughes Of New York Is a
lover of the wilderness. He devotes
some weeks almost every summer to
mountain climbing. Timothy Wood
ruff, the New York politician, who has
been so prominently in the public eye
this year, is another prominent man
who alternates mountain climbing
with indulgence of his other fad, anna

yacht Corsair served as a war vessel

kennels bear witness to his leadership
among dog fanciers. But it is as a pa
iron of art that the distinguished
financier now finds his greatest relax
alton. Much of his time in recent
years has been spent abroad picking
