THE IMPOSSIBLE.

Admiral Read" said a Washington
naval officer lowed his great success
to his ingenuity. He would. i'm fact.
undertake and carry through the i'm
possible. At naval banquet once
he was talking to some young officers
about the strength and beauty of the
arch. He took an egg from a basket
and. holding it aloft, he said: No
tice this eggs arch Nothing could
be prettier Nothing. if you set it
right, could be stronger. Why. gentle
men. / can set this egg on the floor
in such a manner that YOU couldn't
break il with a half bushel measure
THE young officers demurred. a
stout. iron bound half bushel measure
was brought in. The admiral at once
showed his almost inhuman ingenuity
by placing the egg i'm a corner where
the measure couldn't reach it, You
can't fill a square corner with a
round measure said the young Off

KEEP MONEY AT HOME.

Editorial from the Arizona Democrat, 21st. 1911)
The Occidental Life Insurance Company
of Arizona is peculiarly home institution
and is justly entitled to the undivided sup
port of the people of Arizona This cor
poration is utilizing the funds secured
through its business in developing Arizona,
and is the only corporation of it's kind doing
business in the territory. The people as a
rule are prone to send their money abroad
for investment. Many Phoenix people, and,
in fact, people throughout the territory,
send to Los Angeles and other cities for
their dry goods, clothing furniture, etc.
The real truth of the matter is they could
secure just as good goods in Phoenix as
they buy in those cities, and just as cheap.
We have the finest dry goods establish
ments, clothing stores and furniture en-
poriums in the southwest. The Doris
Heyman furniture establishment has few
equals, if any, on the coast This is true as
regards dry goods. The New York and
Boston stores, and the Goldwater Bros, are
all first-class. This, too, is true of our
clothing houses. Goldberg Bros, the Hub
and the McDougall Cassou establishments
are all first-class, and the prices are reas-
enable
Then why send to Los Angeles for your
goods? These men all pay taxes in Phoenix
and contribute in every way to it's upbuild
ing, and it is crime to send your money to
Los Angeles or any other outside city for
things you can purchase at home.
Now this same rule applies to the life in
surance business. The Occidental is a
Phoenix-an Arizona institution. It is
honest is fair in its dealings, and it is en-
titled to the entire insurance business of
this city and territory.

NORRIS STIRRING UP
NEW RULES FIGHT
Nebraska Representative Of.
fers Two Resolutions
on Subject.

Representative Norris of Nebraska,
who led the insurgents in their fight
against Speaker Cannon year ago, to-
day introduced two resolutions which
are calculated to stir up another rules
fight before Congress adjonrns on
March T.
One provides that all proceedings of
committees of the House shall be made
a matter of public record, and that
there shall be no executive sessions.
This resolution is expected to meet
with the most bitter opposition on the
part of old-time members of the House
who believe that committee work should
be withheld from the public.
Mr. Norris second resolution is in
tended to perfect the amendment to the
rules of last session in connection with
discharging a committee from further
consideration of legislation. Under a
recent ruling of Speaker Cannon such
a motion automatically necessitates the
reading OF the entire bill. That particu-
lar ruling has resulted in a filbuster
In the House because two OF the most
voluminous bills have consumed all the
time on Calendar Wednesday for three
or four weeks. The Norris amendment
provides that a motion to discharge shall
only require the reading the title Of a
bill or resolution.

PROTEST AGAINST
REFORMATORY SITE
Nebraska Women Garry
Fight of Mt. Vernon Asso-
citation to Congress.

Members OF Congress are receiving
protests from all parts of the country
against the establishment of criminal
reformatory near Mt. Vernon. Mrs.
Rebekah s. Manderson, wife of Charles
F. Henderson, former United States
Senator from Nebraska, and vice-regent
for Nebraska of the Mt. Vernon Ladies'
Association of the Union, has sent a
protest to the members of the Nebraska
delegation declaring II would be a ma
tional disgrace to place a criminal in
stitution in the immediate vicinity of
Washington's burial place.
Representative Hitchcock of Nebraska
has sent Mrs. Manderson's protest 10
the House District Committee with the
request that 1t be given immediate con-
slderation. The protest is as follows:
THE association submits that there
can be neither necessity nor propriety
in the location of such an institution in
setting of these historic homes, so
closely associated with the independ-
ence OF our country, and especially that
II would be a national discredit to place
penal, criminal institution in the i'm
mediate vicinity OF the home and burial
place Of Washington. The protest of
this association, with that of Others
was submitted to the Commissioners of
the District of Columbia with prompt
ness when the matter was first brought
to the attention of its regents. who
make this appeal because of their firm
conviction that II will arouse the senti-
mental interest of every patriotic citi-
zen of the United States, and the as
sociation embraces this early oppor-
to submit the matter to its attention
and to invoke its protection"

of insanity based upon threats which
he was charged with having made

exercise one of the unusual prerogatives
of bail given by the District code.
This afternoon he appeared at the
court accompanied by a bondsman to
give 5000 for his release from the Gov
eminent Hospital for the Insane and in
sure his attendance in court next
Thursday, when his mental condition
will be ascertainde positively.
At the time of his arrest, on December
II, he was sent to the Washington
Asylum Hospital, and later to the Gov
ernment Hospital. He was brought up
today before Chief Justice Clabaugh,
but his attorneys were. not ready to
proceed. Instead of being willing to go
back to the asylum for a week, Steel,
whose condition is said not to be ag-
gravated, requested that he be allowed
bail.

POLICE CRITICISED
BY JUDGE PUGH
Failure of Prosecuting Wit
nesses to Appear Causes
Dismissal of a Case.

In Police Court this morning Judge
Pugh dismissed the case of Moses Cole
man, moving picture show promoter,
charged with exhibiting film, por-
ton of which depicted a prize fight.
The failure of the witnesses for the
prosecution to appear was the cause OF
dismissal, and let the judge to severe
criticism.
1T is outrageous" said Judge Pugh.
Time after time cases come up here
and the policemen who are essential to
the prosecution of the case are absent.
Here is a case which has been continued
three times since the first of December,
and Captain Williams informs me that
the policeman was told to appear here
this morning. His evidence is essential
to the prosecution of this case, there
fore, there is no use OF continuing II
now. Change Mr.. Colemar's plea to one
of not guilty and dismiss the case
A similar case appeared in the United
States branch of the Police Court, the
only difference being that Judge Null
lowny continued the case until the Of
ficer could be produced and could offer
his testimony.

Just how much more money will be
needed to put the system into effect
generally throughout the country could
not be estimated by the Postmaster
General at this time, but he was of the
opinion that within two weeks he would
know definitely the amount of money
which would be required to expand the
business during the coming year.
When the postal savings banks were
authorized 100000 was appropriated for
the purpose of installing the system
This sum, said Mr.. Hitchcock today,
will barely be enough to maintain the
experimental offices now
equipped and doing business.
AS soon as the expense OF the sys-

Hitchcock will prepare a bill and pre-
sent It to Congress for an appropria-
