The center piece of the table was most uniqua, a mountain scene in the miniature, with a silver stream twi1ing into mirror lake, that bore swans, a vessel of spun glass and water lilies on it's smooth surface.

INDIANS PROTEST AGAINST
CARICATURE.

1t is not exactly clear how the In.
dians are to prevent the caricatures
of Indian life and habits presented in
the cheap moving picture shows, except
through an appeal to public sentiment
but it is a gratifying sign that they
should wish to stand before the public
in a better light. Protests against
exaggerated types of other races have
become familiar. These protests have
indicated a high degree of self respect
on the part of those lodging the COM
plaint, but the old types continue on
the stage, just the same.
AS Tn A Qua, the half breed, points
out, it is not only unfair to the Indian
to paint him as given to the old ex-
cesses of his savage days, but such
representations have a demoralizing
effect upon the youths who attend the
moving picture shows. Only too often
these blood -curdling dramas give an
impulse to the desire, which seems ele-
mental in a boy, to go out and fight
Indians" 1t will not be an easy mat
ter to reach the difficulty by law, but
an enlightened public sentiment can
do much toward setting the matter
right.

PLANS DRAWN FOR
GIBBONS NE MORTAL
Catholic University Hall to
Commemorate Silver Jubi-
lee of Cardinal.

Officials OF the Catholic University
have finally completed plans for the
Cardinal Gibbons memorial hall, which
will have a large frontage on Michigan
avenue, west of Lean hall, and will be
the largest of the group of buildings
embraced in the program OF building
construction at the university. The
plans are being circulated among the
high prelates connected with the univer-
sity for their sanction and Endorsement
before being made public.
The new hall will commemorate Car
dinal Gibbons fiftieth year as a priest
and his twenty-ffth year as a cardinal,
and it will be used for educational pur-
poses.
A number of suggestions were offered
as to the most fitting permanent testi-
monial to the faithful and inspiring
service of the cardinal by the 1900, 900
Catholics in America. The Very Rev.
]. r. Meagher, o. p. rector of St.
Dominic's Church, in this city, con-
ceived the idea of a memorial building
His plan received general Endorsement,
and from all over the country the Off
cials of the university have received
expressions of approval and enthusiasm.

REGULATION OF PUBLIC UTIL,
ITY COMPANIES.

By its action on TuSSiay evening in
voting to use its influence to obtain the
passage of the public utilities commits
sion bill, the Chamber of Commerce
has PeEbHed shat should ultimately
prove te be a valuable service to the
community. Without the pressure
which tSe Chamber can bring to bear
If IL Will make a vigorous effort in
behalf of this measure, the utilities
commission bill stands little chance of
becoming law at this session. Even
with the Chamber of Commerce behind
1t, chances for its passage are not
bright. 1t is possible, however, that it
can be put through, and if it cannot,
the Chamber of Commerce can at least
create a sentiment for it that should
result IN its passage next winter.
Because the establishment of a pub
lie utilities commission is essential to
the fair regulation and control of local
public service companies, the attitude
of the Chamber of Commerce is bound
to produce good results, but whether
adequate regulation of telephone serv-
ice can be obtained through such a
commission is questionable. The tele-
phone company is a foreign corpora
tion, and it is doubtful whether a local
commission could make the investiga-
tion of its affairs necessary as the
basis for fixing rates.
The commission bill deserves indorse-
ment at the hands of the Chamber
because of the control it would give
the commission over local public c-service
companies. If the telephone company's
officials would give the commission
free access to their books it might be
possible to get to the bottom of the
problem of telephone charges. How
ever, it is probable nothing but Con-
gressional investigation of the COM
pany, not only as to its Washington
business, but as to its business else
where, would produce the information
which must be obtained before lust
rates can be established

COURT PROTECTION FOR LIV-
ING TESTATORS.

Massachusetts, gives promise of filling
long-felt want through the pending
bill to provide a means whereby the
probate of will may be taken, so to
speak, before death. Under the pro-
visions of the measure a testator, hav-
ing drawn his will, may go before a
regularly constituted probate court and
prove the instrument in legal form,
giving notice to all and sundry inter
ested of his intention to do so, and
having the question of his mental
ability and competency duly passed
on. After such proceeding the record
of the probate court will, in case of
death, work an estoppel against all
parties setting up the question of the
testator's capacity or of the influences
brought to bear in obtaining the draft
ing of the will.
1t has passed almost into a maxim
that there does not live the lawyer
shrewd enough to draw a will that
some other lawyer is not smart enough
to pick flaw in. Certainly, whenever
an estate is sufficiently large to justify
it, litigation under the present system
entails long delay and great expense
and frequently results in a species of
what is tantamount to legal blackmail
So advanced is the science of the alien
lists and so compIacent the CONNER
cialism with which they lend their
services that the rightful heirs in many
cases find it much the simpler course
to "buy off" the contestants. Under the
proposed law the abnormal man whose
"wheels" have enabled him to accumu-
late a fortune may go in his lifetime
into court and there dare all heirs and
relatives to do their worst toward de-
nying him the right to dispose of his
own as he sees fit.
