The United States army and navy

The working horse or the heavy pro-

which produces muscle. tissue and

Human Hihernation.
In some Of the remoter provinces Of
Russia there are peasants who are ad-
dicted to what Is practically hiberna-
ton. When the harvest has failed
and provisions are scarce they lie
down on the top Of the great stove In
the inner room. the kitchen Of their
hut. The stove is high. reaching al
most to the roof. and the space be-
tween this big brick structure and the
roof Is the ordinary sleeping place of
the family. Lying down upon the
long, fat stove, the peasants avoid all
| talking and all exertion. except such
as Is necessary to keep the stove re-
plenished. and they sustain life by
eating at long intervals little black
bread soaked In water. The hut Ia

MAGAZINES WILL
PAY MORE POSTAGE
Owen And Bourne Only Opponents to
Amendment to Postoffice Appro.
priation Measure.

Washington, D. c., Feb 10. - The
magazine publishers will have to paw
-FOUR cents a pound on the advertising
sections of the periodicals carried as
second class mail if the amendment
to the postoffice appropriation bill,
adopted by the senate committee on
postofi1ces and postroads yesterday is
accepted by both branches of congress.
The action of the committee was
not accomplished with out a contest,
although the amendment was adopted
by vote of eight to two. The senators
who finally voted against the increase
were Messrs. Owen of Oklahoma, and
Bourne of Oregon.
owen based his opposition on the
ground that this was tax upon pop-
ular reading and should not be levied
by congress, while Borne contended
that the action was discrimination in
favor of newspapers and that they
should be taxed likewise.
The increase will apply only to the
large publications. An exemption is
provided for such periodicals of less
than four thousand pounds weight per
issue.
The privilege of carrying advertis-
ing matter will be accorded by the
amendment to fraternal, patriotic
scientific and educational publications
which privileges heretofore have been
denied to them when entered as sec
ond class matter.
The theory Of the supporters of this
proposed legislation is that this ex-
emption, together with that of the
daily newspapers, will create senti- |
ment throughout the country in favor
of the provision.
1t is estimated by Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchcock, who framed the
as adopted that its opera
ton would reduce the annual postoffice
deficit some five million or six million
dollars.
For the extension of the postal saw
ngs banks system, $4,000 appropriat-
I'd in the amendment will be avail
given to the postmaster general to
designate what postoffices shall be Sc
ected
Another amendment allows a thirty
lays leave of absence to all classes of
employees, placing them on
IN equity with other civil employees of
he government.

WILL APPEAL FROM
COURT DECISION
Guthrie Attorneys Prepare to Carry
Capital Removal Case to Supreme
Court of United States.

Guthrie, Okla, Feb. 10.-Guthri,
will appeal to the United States su
Ipreme court Immediately from the de
lcision yesterday by majority opinion
Iof the state supreme court that the
enabling act provision putting the TEN
porary state capital at Guthrie until
after 1913 is not binding.
j. j. O'Rourke, president of the
Guthrie Commercial Club, said last
night:
Quote me as saying the case will
be appealed. l have called meeting
of the Commercial Club and the Re
tailers Association tonight to take the
necessary action"
Attorney C. G. Horner, speaking for
the attorneys representing Guthrie in
the capital removal matter, said:
The case will be taken promptly
to the United States supreme court.
We have at all times had entire con
fidence in the strength of our position
This confidence is now reinforced by
the powerful dissenting opinions yes
terday of Justices Dunn and Kane.
1--WE believe no case can be found
questioning the opinion of Justice
Dunn, concurred in by Justice Kane.
that an ordinance by which an en-
abling act is adopted by state can
be changed only by the vote of the
people and not by legislature"
Justice Kanes separate opinion is
based on the inviolability of the en-
abling act. The federal supreme court
has repeatedly and in every case
where the question was before it, sus-
tanned the various enabling acts. If !
ours should be set aside it would re-
verse a century of precedent in the
United States supreme court.
Former Chief Justice Burford. also
'ne of Guthrie's attorneys, said the
would be an immediate ap-
'eal and then ask that the case be ad-
'anced on the docket.
