PROPER AMOUNT OF LUNCH
DISCUSSED All TREASURY

Washington, Feb. 7.-An almost
daily argument is waged by Bob
Bailey, private secretary of the treas
ury, Franklin McVeagh and Richard
Senegambian messenger who is a
guard OF the portals of the entrance
to McVeagh's office, as to how much
the cabinet officer should eat for
luncheon, when Bailey is paying the
bill
The luncheon question is the result
OF superabundance of work which
frequently keeps the custodian of the
wealth of the nation so engrossed
that he has no time to leave his Of
flee for his home, or one of the club
rooms. Consequently, on such days
Bailey dispatches Richard to a near
by lunchroom, to secure sandwiches,
milk and other things to appease
the official appetite.
And there is where the rub comes
In. Richard, who is a negro, of the
old southern type, is most solicitous
concerning the health of Mr.. Nc
Veagh. He insists that three sand
witches, at least one pint of milk,
and piece of pie comprise the small
est possible lunch that will make
for strength. Bailey declares tina,
two sandwiches are ample, and that
pie is not only necessary but act
tually dangerous. Daily he tells
Richard narrowing tales OF persons
who have eaten pie and died horri-
BILE deaths from acute indigestion.
In the end. Richard of course, has
his way, and the fact that the tray
on which he carrys the lunch room
product to the secretary always
comes back "clean," proves that he
knows a great deal about Secretary
McVeagh's capacity.

PEOPLE OF HOLLAND
JOIN In CELEBRATION

The Hague, Feb. 7.-Flags were
displayed in every town and village
of Holland today in celebration of
the tenth wedding anniversary of
Queen Wilhelmena and the prince
consort. The queen was married to
Prince Henry of Mecklenberg-Schw
in, Feb. Z, 1901. She was then
twenty-one years of age and he was
twenty-five. On April 80, 1909, the
happiness Of the royal couple was
made complete by the arrival of a
baby princess, who was christened
Juliana Louise Emma Marie Wilhel-
nina, Pincess of Orange. The JOY of
the queen and the prince over the
birth of the princess was shared by
all the people of the Netherlands as
it provided direct heir to the
throne and thereby greatly enhanced
the chance of the country for con-
tinued independence.

ORLANDO FERGUSON
PASSED AWAY.

Orlando Ferguson, the man who
became SO we'll known in the past
twenty years for his theory that the
world was square, died at Hot
Springs Friday night of Bright's Dis
ease and other complications at the
age of IS years.
The deceased was born in Du
Quoin, ILL.,, in 1916. Coming west
with the early settlers he decided to
locate in the Vale of Minnekahta
and bought property in the Catholi-
can addition, where he later erected
the Ferguson bath house and let the
medicinal quality of the Sloan
spring, of which he was owner, be-
come known broadcast.
man. Possessed of a great intellect,
he was both versatile and convinc-
ing. In his book and lectures, which
he delivered in all Of teh cites of the
east, on "The Square World" he
showed wealth of knowledge,
which he expounded from his Bibli-
cal and astronomical arguments in
favor of his hobby.
He is survived by four sons, Dee,
Will, Floyd and Harvey. and by two
daughters. Mrs. L. e. Highley and
Miss Marie Ferguson, and his wife,
all of whom live in the southern
Hills resort.
Mr. Ferguson, while not doctor,
was known to everybody as doc
from his association with the sick
who visited his bath house. His
many friends and the friends of the
family extend their sympathy in this
hour Of sorrow.
1nterment took place Sunday
morning and the remains were laid
to rest in Evergreen cemetery.

New York, Jan. 7.-Firm in the
belief that Miss Dorothy H. c. Ar
mold is alive and will return to the
home of her millionaire father F. R.
Arnold, within few days, Deputy
Commissioner. Flynn has withdrawn
from the case, and the city detectives
are no longer actively engaged in
searching for the heiress, missing
for forty-seven days.
Just what Commissioner Flynn
bases this belief on he will not say,
but it is known that the young wo-
man had a love affair which she kept
secret not only from her family but
from her most intimate friends.
In their investigation carried on
since Dec. IL, the day Miss Arnold
disappeared detectives made the dis
covery that Miss Dorothy had been
receiving letters at the general de-
livery window of the postoffice. This
to the mind of the detective and to
the deputy commissioner indicated
that she had had some kind of clan
destine correspondence.
When her father was asked about
this he admitted that such thing
was possible, but said it was highly
improbable. Mr.. Arnold holds to
the belief that his daughter is dead.
That she was attacked in Central
park on the afternoon of Dec. -,
after she had started to walk home
from downtown stores. Nothing can
convince him or his wife or other
members of the family that she went
voluntarily from home.

MAKING THE MAP OF MAINE.

The State of Maine and the United
States Geological Survey are together
spending thousands of dollars in con-
structing great topographic map of
the State. This map when finished will
be of such dimensions that few, if any,
halls in Maine will be big enough to
hang it in. 1t will be about 80 feet high
by 20 feet wide. For convenience, there
fore, the map is being made piecemeal.
Each unit of survey is known as a
quadrangle, comprising one-siXteenth of
degree of latitude and longitude
about 2l5 square miles-and a separate
atlas sheet is published for each quad
rangle surveyed. Twenty-seven quad
rangles have already been surveyed and
the maps published. These are located
mostly in the southern part of the State
extending across it. During the pres
! ent season United States Geological
Survey party, under Hersey Munroe, a
the Bethel quadrangle, the Bryant Pond
quadrangle, and the Buckfeld quad
rangle, in Oxford and Androscoggin
counties. These quadrangles are ira
versed by the Maine Central Railroad
and the Grand Trunk Railway. Each
quadrangle contains 213.72 square miles.
Mr.. Munroe has been assisted by R. A.
kiger and S. A. Judson of the Geologi-
cal Survey, and by field assistants, and
has completed the work on the Buckheld
and Bryant Pond quadrangles. The
work on the Bethel quadrangle is we'll
under way.
Almost everyone in Maine knows the
value of the Government topographic
surveys. The topographic map shows
every physical characteristic of the area
surveyed-every hill, slope, valley, and
stream, and the altitude of every point.
All the works of man are also portrayed
| by the surveyors in their exact relative
position-the roads, the railroads, the
bridges, even the houses. Any farmer
who buys one of these maps may pick
out his home and note its elevation above
sea level as readily as the most expert
enced engineer. The map is useful to
the farmer, to the tourist and huntsman,
to the automobilist, and to the private
surveyor or engineer-in fact, to every
one. Thousands Of these topographic
atlas sheets of the quadrangles in Maine
have been sold, but the demand is con-
stantly increasing. The maps are indis-
pensable IN engineering development of
| any character. They have been we'll
termed the mother maps of the country.
In accordance with an act of Congress,
the Topographic atlas sheets are sold by
the Director of the Geological Survey, at
Washington, at the nominal rate of 5
cents a copy-the cost of paper and
printng-or Sc hundred if at least 100
copies of any map or maps are pur-
chased. They are also sold by dealers in
a dozen or more of the larger cities of
Maine. The survey of the Buckfield.
Bryant Pond, and Bethel quadrangles is
being carried on comparatively by the
State and the Federal Survey, each pay
ing one-half of the field expenses,
The Geological Survey at Washington,
also publishes an index map showing the
quadrangles which have been mapped in
Maine, and copy of this will be sent
free to anyone requesting it,

WASHINGTON, Oct g. The task of irving to

ed to be in violation of the federal constitution
The initiative amendment and the Oregon
tax were denounced in the brief as violatiye of

which was guaranteed by the federal constitu-

powerful, but that government by direct legis-

Gov. Woodrow Wilson of New JERSEY was
quoted as saying that government must have
