The Four Bills,


There Bill the First, the Presidential Bill,
Whose large proportions all the country
FILL
Whose thought molds history in many
ways,
Whose words a nation, more or less
obeys.
The second Bill, the sage Congressional
Bill
Has larger sway and welds stoutei
will.
How many times In many a well fought
Must Bill the First to Bill the Second
yieldl
But Bill the Third, the mighty Dollar Bill,
Has greater force and influence vaster
still.
Upon his beck and call the millions wait
In market places and the halls of state
But Bill the Fourth, the little Dunning
Bill
All, his the final power, the reigning skill!
When all the laws are writ, the deeds are
done,
This Bill the Fourth rules every mothers
son!

briskly for three minutes, then add
another tablespoon OF sugar and whip
as before After third tablespoon has
been added. add half teaspoon Of lem
on juice and whip briskly again. Con
tinue this process until mixture is stiff
enough to hold in any form.
The icing should now be divided in
to as many parts as there are colors,
and each portion eopred delicateiy to
the desired shade. care must be taken
to mix the paste thoroughly through

Will appear in It.
Round loaf cakes lend themselves
better to decorations than square

WHAT CHRISTMAS PRES
-
ENTS SHALL | MAKE?

This depends much upon the persons
to whom you make them, but in
more cases than you probably mag
inc, no present could be made which
would contribute more to the welfare
of the recipient than deposit book
in the Hyde Park Savings Bank.
This Bank never declines a deposit
because it is small. Any sum from a
single cent to million dollars will be
received and per cent interest al
lowed, compounded semi-annually.
Remember the Bank pays all taxes
and if the donor wishes to qualify
the deposit by saying it must not be
withdrawn until some specified day,
as for instance when the recipient is
IS or 81 years of age, it is entirely
proper to make the deposit in this
way.
Let the pass book be accompanied
by nice letter from the donor to the
recipient urging thrift and sugge sting
that this little nest egg re added TO
| from time to time as the recipient
has few coppers that he or she can
save.
We do not need to tell you about
the str ength and solidity of the Hyde
Park Savings Bank, but if you would
/ like any facts connected with the
Bank, write the President, Carroll S.
Page, Or the Treasurer, F. Nj. Culver,
and you will receive prompt reply.

Washington, Dec. 10.-Penalties
aggregating $1,000 were imposed by
Acting Secretary Cable of the depart
ment of commerce and labor on the
British steamer Oteric, charged with
what officials say is the worst case of
neglect of steerage passengers ever
brought before the department under
the passengr act of 1882.
Among the Oteric's 1912 passengers
there were in the eight weeks of her
voyage fifty eight deaths, fifty-seven
being children.
The births numbered fourteen. The
department charges that the sexes
were not properly segregated during
the greater part of the. voyage, that
the ventilation of the ship was made
quate and greatly increased the NOR
tally rate, that the hospital was ILL.,
ventilated and without proper equip
ment, and that the sanitary conditions
of the vessel generally were almos
beyond belief" ..-->.. ..---.... 1885,,
Acting Secretary Cable, after givins
ample opportunity for the ship:
agents to make a defense, directed
that the full penalties be imposed.

Labor leaders First knowledge
Of h:cNamaraS' Guilt
BURNS ATTACKS ON GOMPERS

Head of Federation Prepared to Show
That barrow Pronounced John Nc
Namara Innocent During Conference
at anapoIis-Lawyer Said to
Have Asserted That 1t Would Cost
81, 900 200 to Save Him
Washington, Dec. 11.-Strong de-
NAL that the officers of the American
Federation of Labor knew that the
Mcnamara brothers were guilty
previous to their plea in open court
at Los Angeles, is made in a lengthy
statement issued from labor head
quarters here.
This statement is signed by the
Mcnamara ways and means commit
tee, so called, and lays great stress
On the assertion that the different
members of that committee had i'm
plicit confidence in John j. McNa
mara previous to his acknowledge
ment of guilt. ..-
The federation leaders declare they
had never heard of the guilt of the
McNamaras when they met at In
dianapolis, and tell how they relied
ON the gas explosion theory in the
Los Angeles Times case. They first
learned the truth, they say, from
published reports.
The entire history Of the dynamit-
ing case is reviewed, Detective Burns
is again condemned for his state
ments, and plea made for fair play
to unions.
The carefully guarded secret OF
6ompers' defense against the attacks
of Detective Burns cropped out
through the carelessness of a girl
stenographer employed at the Ameri-
can Federation Of Labor headquar-
tiers.
When Gompers is summoned before
the federal grand jury he will present
sworn statement signed by every
labor leader in attendance at a recen
conference with Clarence S. Darrov
at Indianapolis, in which it is posi-
lively asserted that barrow pro
nOunced John J Mcnamara innocent
Following his declaration that Nc
Namara was innocent, this sworn
statement to the federal grand jur.
will show DarrOw is further alleged t.
