working under the big white dome ever
since-which is the reason for the influence
he now exercises among his fellow legislators.
He works and stays on his job.
When the conferences were being held to
decide on the organization of the House. he
would hop up now and then and let out
long scream about how we'll the laboring
man must be looked after. If proposal was
made to elevate to high honor man mimi
cal to labor,-organized, unorganized, or
disorganized,- he was there with his ham,
mer, protesting. bowling, voting "No!" and
humping up and down like wild man.
1t has been the same way in the Com
mittee on Ways and Means. Every time he
sees a chance to fill the dinner pail at a re-
duced cost, a beatific smile overspreads his
face and softens the lines of his protuberant
jaw. Every time a schedule is not cut to
the marrow, he Grapes himself in tigurative
Sackcloth and eats lot of metaphorical
ashes, thereafter retiring into abyssr11al
gloom.
Moreover he has introduced in the House
more bills to help laboring people individu-
ally and collectively than any other man in
Congress.
Billy Hughes was born in Ireland in
1872. During the Spanish-American War
he served in the Second New Jersey Volun-
teers. But his strength in his district is not
founded on his war reputation. 1t is built
on that hobby of his. "Hurrah for the Ia
berer!' All his people know that he wants
to shorten the hours of labor for women and
children, and that he distrusts corporations
and plutocrats because he loves labor.
Briefly speaking. he is the Democratic
Laborite of Congress, and some day he may
walk down the aisle of the House clad in

"Then, Sir. said Bellew, shaking his head,
permit me to tell YOU that you have missed
a great deal Had the time, should be de-
lighted to explain to you exactly how much;
as it is, allow me to wish you very good
evening"
Cassilis smiled. and his teeth seemed to
CLEAN whittier and sharper than ever in the
moonlight. Wouldn't it be rather more
apropos if you said goodby. Mr.. BELIEVE" he
inquired. You are leaving Dapplemere

"The moon, Sir.

NIT me to wish YOU a very good evening
Saving which, Bellew nodded affably, and,
shouldering his spade, went upon his way.
And still he walked in the shadows, and still
he gazed upon the moon; but now his thick
brows were gathered in a frown, and he was
wondering just why Cassilis should chance
to be here tonight. and what his confident
air and the general assurance of his manner
might portend. Above ALL ne was wondering
how CasSilis came to be aware of his own i'm
pending departure. And so, at last, he came
to the rickvard, full of increasing doubt and
misgivings.

Thereafter he takes up the black bag, empty
now shoulders the spade and sets off, keep
ing once more in the shadows, leaving Con-
spirator Number Two to guard their guilty
secret.
NOV, as Conspirator Number One goes his
shady way, he keeps his look directed
toward the rising moon, and thus he almost
runs into one who also stands amid the
shadows and whose gaze is likewise fixed
upon the moon.
"Ah, Mr.. Bellew." exclaims drawing
voice, and Squire Cassilis turns to regard
him with his usual supercilious smile. In
deed, Squire Cassilis seems to be even more
self satisfied and smiling than ordinary to-
night; or at least Bellew imagines SO.
"You are still agriculturally inclined, |
see," said Casslis, nodding toward the
spade; though it's rather queer time to
choose for digging, isn't it,"
mot at all, Sir, not at all, returned Bel
lew solemnly. "The moon is very nearly at
the full, you will perceive.

his mustache, at seems to me that you have

After he got into politics, he performed
like six cuckoo clocks with the same motto,
and, if you walked him up tomorrow morning
and asked him how he stood, he would let
out this zip:
"For labor, the laboring man-God bless
him."
At present he is a member of the House
Committee on Ways and Means, that or
ganization which has been trying to do all
in its power to lower the cost of living At
one time it was said that he would recline
in the craftsmanship of the Committee on
Labor; but he was regarded as SO valuable
that he had to take the Ways and Means
Job
In his youth he worked at loom in fac
tory in Paterson. Is he for laboring men!
Anybody who gucsses yes guesses right. He
worked at that loom, and he saw other peo-
ple-men, women, and children-working
all around him. But he never wanted to
STAY at loom, anyway, and he hustled about
and studied law on the side, finally accumu-
lating sufficient knowledge of the statutes to
become practising attorney.
1t didn't take him long to get start. All
the factory people went after him. They
crowded his Office, and, after he had risen
enough to have an anteroom, they cluttered
that up in their journeys to his headquarters
for legal advice and assistance. He was tor

was natural Said Billy one fine morning,

The infant son of the murderer,

not yet been named. Prior to the
murder of it's mother it was intend

however, wiz not be done. When
the maternal grandfather was asked
what he and his wife call the child,
he replied, 1--WE merely call the
little fellow baby" He would not
say when the christening will take
place. The grandfather said:

Wheeling, w. Va, Nov. 23.-That
not only his children, Virginia and
Laura, but that he, himself, would
take the witness stand when his
wife, Laura Farnsworth Schenk, is
called to the bar of justice the sec

of poisoning him with arsenic with
murderous intent, was the statement
of John o. Schenk today.
Schenk dictated the following
statement, which he says was made
by his children and which he says
they will repeat on the witness
stand:
1--WE watched mamma put white
powder in papa's cocoa every morn
ing, and when we asked her what
it was she told us she would knock
our blocks off if we said anything
about it, and that we shouldn't dare
to touch it,
In his own testimony Schenk said
he would tell of how, at Atlantic
City last summer, his wife had, in
the presence of other witnesses, ac-
knowledged intimacy with other men
and pleaded for forgiveness, claim
