ST. PATRICK BORN
IN OLD ENGLAND
Irish of Worcester Aroused
by New Textbook.

Worcester. Mass, March 5.-"A few
years before Alaric invaded Italy a boy
was born in England. probably on the
western coast, VINO was to become the
famous St Patrick" That sentence in
a book entitled, European Hero Stories,' -
written by DR.. Eva March Tappan, a
former teacher in the Worcester classical
high school, has caused an upheaval in
the Worcester school board.
At the next meeting of the board Tues
day night, an attempt will be made to
have the textbook containing that
sentence removed from the list of books
used at the high school The commit
tee on books and supplies recently voted
to have Miss Tappans book added to
the list, and copies were sent around to
members TO read.
The members of the board of Irish
descent object to the statement That St
Patrick was a native of England, and
DR.. Francis A. Underwood. a leader
among the Irish societies here, made
known to-day that he is to make a fight
against the adoption of the book
He has taken the matter up with Miss
Tappen by correspondence, and she has
replied that although st. Patrick might
have been born in Scotland as some
historians claim. Scotland was then
known as England

Every lady in Washington will be in

newest exclusively ladies' wear shop to
be known as the Bluestein Company, in

gowns, theater dresses. including the lat
est styles in the popular Bulgarian ef-
fects, as well as linen. marquisette, and
cotton voiles, for Southern wear.
In addition to the waist department,
which in itself will prove an innovation
to shoppers, the Bluestein Company has
in .keir establishment a millinery section
displaying one of the most satisfying
of the latest Partisan mil
linery to be found in America to-day.

SPLIT
IN SENATE WIDENS
New Members May Gust
Bailey as Leader.

The action Of Senator Joseph Weldon
Bailey in resigning suddenly from the
Senate Saturday and promptly recalling
the resignation has served to emphasize
the cleavage in the. Democratic minority
in the Senate.
On the eve of the extra session of Con-
sress, in which the Democrats will be
in control of the House, and in which
the Democrats in the Senate, if they act
ed harmoniously, might by cooperating
with the low tariff Republicans of the in
surSent variety, accomplish some legisla-
tinn on the tariff. the Senate Democrats
find themselves split into warning fac
tions.
Senator Bailey is at the head of one
faction and Senator William Joel Stone,
of Missouri, is leading the other. The
line of cleavage was shown in the Lori
mer case.
In the alignment against Senator Bailey
is his colleague, Senator CulberSon, of
Texas. The revolt against Senator
Bailey's nominal leadership has been
growing for some time, and it probably
will be stronger in the new Senate than
it was in the old. Nearly all of the new
Senators are expected to line up with the
anti-Bailey faction. An exception will be
Senator Clarence Watson, of West Vir-
Sinia. His colleague, Senator Chiffon,
probably will also join the Bailey follow
ing.
It is expected that when the Senate
takes up the consideration of Canadian
reciprocity and whatever amendments
the Ways and Means Committee of the
House may conclude to attach to il.
that the real conflict between the Bailey
and anti-Bailey factions in the Senate
will appear. Mr.. Bailey is opposed to
Canadian reciprocity. He is likewise op-
posed to free raw material, as undemo-
cratic. and styles himself as an advo-
cate of a revenue tariff.
In order that the new tariff legislation
coming over from the House can pass, 1t
must command practically the solid sup
port of the Democratic Senators and
gain a few votes from the Republican
side. The necessary votes from the Re
publican side, it is expected, VIII be sup
piled by the insurgents, but these re-
cruits will not be sufficient to save the
measure unless practically all of the
Democratic Senators support it. 1t will
be upon this issue that the real
fight in the Democratic ranks in the Sem
ate will hinge.
