THE INTEREST LAGS
In Debate in Commons Over the House
of Lords Veto.

London March 30-Interest greatly
tagged in the debate on the veto resO>
luton in the House of Commons
Wednesday night and the attendance
was small. Lord Cecil for the Union
lists made the Importance admission
that there ought to be a stronger check
from the House of Lords on conserva-
tive governments and that a proposal
in this direction would demand careful
consideration. He favored the House
of Lords composed of 400 members, $50
chosen from the hereditary peerage
and the others nominated by the King
on the advice of his ministers.
Augustin Berrili. chief secretary to
Ireland, speaking for the government
said it was not proposed at this stage
to submit any scheme for the reform
of the House of lords. The unpopu-
larity of the House of Lords he added,
was not the outcome of the hereditary
principle, but the countrys conviction
that the lords had failed to exercise
their functions impartially. He de-
clared thai there could be no compro-
mise on the financial resolution.
There was an interesting incident in
Parliament, Mr.. Balfour giving notice
of a motion in favor of raising the
salary of John Burns, President of the
local government board, to $25OOO.
The Nationalists at meeting Wednes.
day in London over which John E. Red
mond presided. decided that while giving
general support to the governments veto
resolutions they would vote in favor of
amendments making the legislation by
the House of Commons effective upon a
second rejection by the Lords instead of
upon the third rejection; and removing
the condition that two years must elapse
between the introduction of bill and its
final passage by the House of Commons

Sailing Alone Around the World.


Captain Slocum.)
How would you like to take a tip
around the world in a little sloop all
by yourself? This is what Captain
Slocum did in his boat 1.-THE Spray"
Nor was that all. He virtually bu II
the boat himself. he tells all about it
even to what the loafers said who
stood around and watched him till
he smeared on the last prushful Of
paint.
Then with a common dollar alarm
clock for a chronometer he started
on one of the most wonderful yoy-
ages the heart Of a man or boy could
conceive.
He saw on that wonderful voyage
the fog-wrapped Straits Of Magellan
the Island Of Samoa where he had a
visit with the wife of the author OF
Treasure Island" How that autaor
would have loved a talk with this
grave Yankee captain. Then came
the month long voyage over the Pa
cific where the mariner loses a day,
then Australia, the Cape of Goo
Hope, the Gulf stream and Fairhaven,
Massachusetts. back TO ner to whom
the book is dedicated and who never
lost hope that The Spray will come
back"
At the close Of the account of the
voyage as well as scattered through
out the book are many drawings ami
pictures which tell better than any
description the plan of the book and
the route the Spray followed
