HOW PROVE BRIBERY?

Hereafter how is bribery to be prov
ed to the satisfaction of senate COM
mittee? In the Lorimer case the in
vestigators held that the confession
of four legislators who said they were
bribed was untrustworthy, since the
four evidently were no gentlemen. II
the bribe givers had united with the
bribe takers in the confession, there
still would have been no evidence for
the committee to accept, because 1t
would have suspected collusion be-
tween undesirable characters.
Apparently the only thing that
would satisfy the senate committee
would be for every bribery transac-
ton to be carried out in the presence
of at least three witnesses with a no
tary present to take their afiidavits on
the spot. With the afiidavits in hand,
and with an opportunity to cross-ex-
anime the witnesses to make sure OF
their credibility, the committee might
decide that perhaps a degree OF sus-
picion did attach to the matter.-Kan'
sas City Times.

st. Valentine now claims attention,
and one must be original in the art of
gift making to attract this little god
of love who at some time or other
shoots his arrows at every boy and
girl. Can you sketch? If so, then make
out a valentine menu card for the
absent friend. An appropriate menu
would be something like the following:
Candy Kiss soullie, heart salad, turkey
In the straw. nectar of the gods (cof-
feel. trilles (cakesl. returned affection
dee cream. jealousy pickles), and ere.
ate anything else that has bearing
on the day. Then sketch picture of
each item. using india ink. The saucy
waitress should be drawn with a plat
ter above her head, and she should be
placed ut the top Of the card. Next
sketch snlnd and mark the lngredi-
entS with sigh. hopes, fears, etc. AS
you begin the work you will discover
countless ways to decorate each menu.
To paint pretty card show Cupid
pushing II wheelbarrOw full of love up
steep hill. At the top OF the hill
have n girl and tiny slgnpOst showing
the town or city in which she lives.
Write beneath the picture the words,
Loves heavy burden"
Another suitable picture for postal
could show Cupid with an immense
sack on his back just departing from
the mail box on the corner Write
the recipients name on the mail bag.
II IA fancy bag Is desired cut heart
shaped piece of cardboard. cover II
with satin ribbon and shirr a ribbon
to the heart to make the bag. Gather
1t at the top and place draw string of
cord or ribbon at the top. A minia

draw string.
A dainty picture to send to some
dear old lady Is that OF an old couple

burg states:
Commuters who use the big Union
Station of the Pennsylvania Railroad
in this city will no longer be bored
while waiting for trains. The an
nouncement is made that moving pic
ture shows will be presented to them
in the station hereafter. The appara-
tus will be installed in two weeks, it
is expected. The films will be
changed daily, but the railroad Off
cials propose to act as censors and to
eliminate all Objectionable pictures.
There will be none showing train rob-
berries or train collisions; they might
have a bad impression on the minds
of the travellers. This innovation will
dispense with the raucous-volced
train callers, for five minutes before
trains leave announcement of their
vas on which the pictures will be
shown"
Such interesting and instructive
shows must be great success in
Pittsburg. Then it is fair to presume,
the paternal Pennsylvania will give
them in It's station here. 1t Is vast
place, that station, but it needs no
prophet to foresee that it is not half
big enough to hold the audiences that
will gather to the free picture shows.
Each audience will never change;
New York families will bring along
lunch baskets, buy railroad tickets to
One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street
or Long Island City or Hoboken,
throng the station and revel all day
in perfectly good and moral films

The last way train out will be the
only one filed. OF course other rail-
roads will enter into competition with
the Pennsylvania. The New York
