totes OF securing the necessary two
thirds TO pass II.
Responsibility for the defeat was
divided between nine Democrats. who
voted against the resolution because
they feared that federal election laws
might be invoked TO carry out the pro
visions Of the resolution. and six Re-
publican lame backs who voted
against their colleagues who will re-
main in the senate after March 4. All
told. the senators from thirteen states
split on the roll call. being In every
instance except that OF West Virginia,

BY agreement the senate took up
the roll call Immediately after the
reading of the journal. Senator Ba-
con, of Georgia. pointed out that the
agreement took the resolution from
the committee OF the whole OF the SEN
ate 10 final passage without giving the
senate itself chance TO amend the
bill. He would have amended II by
providing that federal election laws
should apply only in cases In which
the legislature OF a state had not pro
vided sufficient safeguards.

 With an excellent company thor oughly in keeping with his standin g, Nat C. Goodwin, that most fascinating actor of comedy, entertained delight fully an audience at the Grand theatre Wednesday evening. His play YVES Waiter Turner's The Captain" with a plot almost light enough to be that of q musical comedy, and which was yet a drama nearly conforming to the classic unities
 of course everybody wants to hear about MT. Goodwin, in spite of the fact that very little has been left to say about him. People like to be told what they know. MT. Goodwin's per sonality dominates the stage from hla entrance early in the first act until the curtain drops in the third and last. His comedy is irresistible. His humor is personal appeal to every one with in the circle of his presence. "The performance was almost fau't- less There was not a dull moment from asbestos to finis.
 Supporting MT. Goodwin were such actors as one would expect to see sur rounding a star of the first magnitude From them, no false note was heard No one of them, however, against the brilliancy of the company, stands out as a bright and shining light. The scene of the comedy is in Manila hotel"

Miss Tanguay had constructed a novel garment-one of an endless number of Tanguay ideas, which means even more than original ideas. It consists of dull bronze satin, close fitting jacket with jaunty cap of the same material, com pletely covered with Lincoln pennies. rhirty-hye hundred coins were used on this garment, which weighs 60 pounds.
 The first obstacle that presented n- self when Miss Tanguay ordered her penny jacket was the law making It Ia crime to mutilate United States coins. However. her resourceful mird solved the problem of how to avoid this by inventng a kind of button li',e backing with tiny claws holding tre coins securely without even scratch ing them.
 At the end of the present season Miss Tanguay Is to give this original gar ment-the only one of it's kird in the world-to a Lincoln library in one of our large cities, where it will be lasting souvenir of a man and a wo- man, who, in their widely different spheres, are in q place by themselves.
