EXTRA SESSION OF
CONGRESS PROBABLE

Washington, D. c., Feb. 18.-Eith-
er an extra session or a legislative
orgy for the next II remaining days
with scant consideration of the big
governmental appropriation bills is
the prospect today. Six appropriation
bills carrying S1O0,0O0,000 are pend
ing in the house and several which
passed the house are pending in the
senate. Yesterday not a bill passed
either the senate or the house. Little
consideration is being given reciproc-
ity in the senate and it looks like only
drastic action will force it trough
this session.

Senator Says Chairman of Railroad
Committee Ignores Others.

state Capitol, salem, Ore, Feb. is.
Senator Kellaher was again berat-
ga when Burgess asked that a house
bill relating 10 damages for stock
killed by trains be referred to the
judiciary committee.
There hasn't been meeting of the
railroad committee for two weeks. -
declared Burgess, aiming his remarks
at Kellaher, who is chairman Of the
cnmittee. That's probably your
fault" rejoined Kellaher.
But the only meetings We do get"

pares the bills in n matter satisfac-
tory to himself alone and reports
them in without getting our idea on
he subject"
The motion of Burgess finally pre-
vailed.

Girls At Prayer
 Saved From Fire
Nuns Pray on Lawn as 40 Chil- dren Are Rescued at House of
 Good Shepherd in Hartford

Hartford May 31-Thrilling rescues by firemen and policemen marked a disastrous fire yesterday afternoon, in the House of the Good Shepherd, in Sisson avenue. Although the main building was badly damaged all of the 40 girl residents escaped. Some re- ceived slight injuries.
 Spontaneous combustion among piles of cloth used for making wrappers and aprons and stored on the fourth floor of the main building is blamed for the blaze. Ninety girls were attending devotions, conducted by the Rev. Father McAuliffe, in the chapel on a child went to the pew of the Mother Superior and told her the top floor was on fire.
 Sending her assistant to summon the fire department, the Mother Superior hurriedly marshalled the children on- to the adjacent lawn, which is enclosed by a fifteen foot board fence When the first two companies arrived they put up ladders to the roof of the DOT tico entrance and stretched life net. Some of the smaller children, who were cut off from the stairways, were pushed into the arms of f1remen and policemen by the older girls. The oth. CTS were caught in the life net. As- sistant Chief Loomis turned in a gen. eral alarm, which brought fifteen com panies.
 The children, led by the nuns, sang patriotic and sacred anthems, while the sisters gathered about a statue of the Blessed Virgin on the lawn and offered up prayers for the preserva- tion of the building.
 There were no fire escapes, and windows in the four story building, which is used as a dormitory, were heavily barred to prevent the escape of the girls.

POLI'S.

Clyde Fitchs hilarious comedy ''The Blue Mousse is proving to be the big gest sort of a favorite with the Poli formances yesterday despite the out door attractions were given before capacity audiences there being many standees at the night show. The Blue Mouse takes it's name from the ap- pellation of a music hall dancer who affects blue and is of SprOuting pro- clivities A mouse is generally lively and the Blue Mouse is especially so She causes the most ludicrous kinds of mixups but the master skill of the dramatist weaveS them out to a lucid ending but not before the large audi ences simply laugh themselves to the point of hysteria. Miss Tyrell is seen in the title role and gives a corking good impersonation of the frisky dance hall favorite. Incidentally she adds to the attractiveness of the thing by wearing some classy gowns. John F. Ince is the railroad official who plans to inveigle the railroad president with a woman so as to gain his promotion and Charles Schofield is the old young railroad president a part which he plays admirably and proves himself a genuine comedian. Anne Hollinger the new second woman of the company makes a hit in her first weeks appear ance in the role of Mrs. Toilette and of course John Junior who is already installed as a big favorite with the Poli clientele scores strongly. All the other members of the company have splendid roles and acquit themselves with great credit. Between the acts Jack Sherman and Eddie Healey sing
 Dreams Just Dreams" and When You're in Town" and the electrograph shows many new and interesting views. "The Blue Mouse" is well worth catching for it's the biggest laugh maker that has ever played Polls and there have been some excellent comedies here.
