MANN TAKES CONTROL,
BLOCKS LEGISLATION
Illinois Representative Deity
Defeats Consideration of
the Omnibus Claims Bill.

The House of Representatives was COM
pletely tied up yesterday from 10 o'clock
in the morning until $50 o'clock at night
by a genuine old-fashioned fillibuster,
managed by Representative James r.
Mann of Illinois. Incidentally Mr.. Manns
performance served to demonstrate the
fallacy OF Speaker Cannorrs favorite
contention that a majority of the body
can do whatever it wants whenever it
wants. Although a decided majority
tried it's best all day yesterday to take
favorable action the omnibus claims
bill, Mr.. Mann effectively blocked the
legislative machinery and not wheel
turned.
In an effort to obtain a quorum the
House last night voted to arrest all
absentees. but the requisite number en-
tered the chamber before this was neces-
sary.

ernoon, and was aware for the first
time that she was well-formed, and
that her manner Of dress was salts

woman's dress, and he saw none OF
the details of her neat shirt waist
and well-cut tailor suit. He saw only
the effect in a general, sketchy way.
She looked right. This was in the alb
sence of anything wrong or out OF the
way.
"She's trim little good-looker," was
his verdict, when the outer office door
closed on her.
The next morning, debating, he con-
cluded that he liked the way she did
her hair, though for the life Of him
he could have given no description OF
it. The impression was pleasing, that
was all. She sat between him and
the window, and he noted that her
hair was light brown, with hints of
golden bronze. A pale sun, shining in,
touched the golden bronze into smoul-
dering fires that were very pleasing.
He discovered that in the intervals,
when she had nothing to do, she read
books and magazines, or worked on
some sort of feminine fancy work.

expect the pastor to be there hot or

expectations of you? Do you who so
easily absent yourselves from the ser

much harder you make it for the

on the part of the membership is
