The Week
in Congress


The Senate Tuesday began consid-
Grafton of a bill providing for codi-
fcation of laws relating to the judi
ciary. Senator Clapp. speaking upon
the administration railroad bill, ex-
pressed confidence that it would be
materially amended before its final
passage. The general debate on the
pension appropriay ION bill continued
throughout the day in the House.
The bill providing for codification
of the laws relating to the judiciary
was under consideration during
almost the entire session of the Sem
ate Wednesday. The raising Of the bat
tie ship Maine, now submerged in the
harbor of Havana. was provided for
in bill passed by the House Under
the provision of this measure the
wreck OF the Maine can be examined
to determine the manner of its de-
struction. TIE remains Of the sailor
dead that may be found will be In
TERED in Arlington Cemetery. The
House also passed a bill providing a
penalty of not more than $1,000 fine
or imprisonment for not more than two
years in the case of any proprietor of
a place Of amusement in the District
of Columbia and territories who may
refuse admission to soldier or sailor
of the United States because Of his
uniform.

The Overland
The Simplest Car
The Overland outsells all other cars, largely
because of its matchless simplicity.

The Overwhelmingly more than
two years old-has become the sensa-
ton of motordom
Four factories, employing 1000 men,
turn out 140 Overlands daily to meet
the overwhelming demand.
Texas takes 1900. Kansas 1000,
Iowa 1000, Nebraska 750-ail for this
seasons delivery. So 1t is in every
section where this remarkable car has
been known for year.
One reason is that the Overland is
almost trouble-proof. The usual COM
pick features have all been eliminated.
A child can master the car in ten
minutes. A novice can run 1t and care
for 1t.
One simply pushes pedals forward
or backward to get on low speed, high
speed or reverse. 1t is as simple as
walking.
The car almost cares for itself.
Many an owner has run from 1000
to 10000 miles without even cleaning
spark plug.

The Senate again Friday refused to
accede to Senator Elkins' request that
a day be fixed for a vote on the admin
istrations railroad bill A suggestion
was made that a month or more might
be required for the debate on that
measure. Senator Bailey announced
he had received assurances that be-
fore adjournment there would be a
vote on the statehood bill. The new
committee on rules of the House of
Representatives as provided for by the
Norris resolution, was elected withou.
debate. The members selected by the
Republican and Democratic caucuses
were named in resolution brought in
by Mr.. Currier of New Hampshire.
General debate upon the naval appro-
priation bill was begun. Mr.. Bartholdt
of Missouri spoke in favor of arbitra-
ton and urged the adoption of naval
program to include but one battle
ship annually, which would, he said,
be sufficient to maintain the navy at
its present strength.

The legislative, executive and judi
cial appropriation bill, carrying about
S34,000,000 was passed by the SEN
ate Thursday. Very few amendments
were adopted. Senator Owen spoke
in advocacy of his bill for the creation
of a new executive department to be
devoted to the preservation of the pub
lie health. The pension bill carrying
appropriations Of about $4,000 900
was passed by the House. Nearly the
entire session was occupied by con-
test, made chiefly by Republicans
against the provision of the measure
as reported from the committee on
pensions, for the abolition of the
eighteen pension agencies now in oper-
alton throughout the country. By a
vote of rs to "a the House refused to
overrule the recommendations of the
committee The committee was sus-
tanned chiefly by Democratic votes.

HAS FOUNDATION IN ROCK
Around Which There Llrser
Superstitlous Tales.

In the quaint old German town OF
Oberstein an ancient church stands,
built In the great rock rising from the
river. The front of the building is OF
stone. but the church itself Ia hol-
lowed out of the rock and penetrates
far into its heart. Tradition says that
in the fourteenth century the count
OF Oberstein. one of the old robber
barons, fell deeply In love with q
beautiful young lady. the daughter of
a neighboring knight His brother
also sought the fair maiden's hand
and the two suitors had violent
quarrel. The upshot was that the
count flung his hapless brother from
the top Of his castle wall. high up
the precipitous CLIFF. Repenting OF his
awful deed, the count vowed that he
would build q church where his broth
er's body first touched the ground.
He did 80. excavating the church In
the rock. and tradition goes on to say
a miraculous spring of clear water
sprang from the crag as a token that
Heaven was appeased This curious
church Is now the only Protestant
place Of worship In the town.--Wide
