When Baronets Wers Bold.

= 1t was in the reign Of good King
James that baronets first came into
existence. Today yon could hardly tell
a baronet from banker But in the
year. 1911, when James l. needed ready
money and created 300 'little barons'
to supply him with cash. they swag-
gered about in their baldrics and sash
es and behaved in the courtliest OF
fashion. Each baronet in order to
justify his title had to maintain &
small army Of thirty soldiers for three
years. In this way the crafty king
not only increased his revenue. but
actually lightened his expenses.
IT. Is not generally. known that the
title Of "baronetess" has twice been
bestowed on women. One Of these was
the mother Of Dutch general The
other was Nottingham lady named
Dame Maria Bolles. who won her way
into>the good graces Of Charles l. and
received the title from his hands

PENRosE MAY BE CHAIRMAN
Pennsylvania Senator Elected to
Head Republican Committee.

Washington, May S.-Senator Boif.s
Penrose of Pennsylvania. the new Re
publican leader of the senate, is re.
ported to be slated to succeed Post.
master General Frank Hitchcock as
chairman Of the Republican national
committee.
1t such a plan is carried out Sena-
tor Penrose will be the manager O:
the campaign to secure President
Taft's denomination in next years con.
ventiOn and his selection will be re.
garded as Taft's personal choice,
Senator Penrose and President Taft
have been on most intimate terms
since the converting of the present
special session of congress. Penrose
has promised President Taft to get
the Canadian reciprocity measure
through the senate and if he succeeds
the national craftsmanship seems like.
ly to be his reward .- .......
Penrose is on better terms with tue
progressives than any of the other
regulars and far better than Presi-
dent Taft can claim to be.
Playing Deep Game.
In fact. Penrose's work in giving
lot of choice committeeships to the
progressives did not have Taft's full
approval. But Penrose was playing
deep game and it's wisdom seemed
to be demonstrated when a majority
of the progressives pulled their sup.
port out from under La Toilette AMI
compelled him to content himself
with the most ladylike kind of pro.
test against the regulars allotment OF
committeeships
Senator Penrose Is particularly
friendly with Senators Clapp and
Bourne, who got two of the best com.
mittee. chairmanships on the list, in.
terstate commerce and postoftices
There Is a possibility that he can ir
duce a majority of the progressives
again to desert La Toilette and thus
pass the reciprocity bill.
II he does that he will have gone a
long way in demoralizing the pro.
gressive opposition to the renomina
ton Of Taft and to pave the way for
Taft success in the convention.
