Why She Chose Him

Boston Traveler)
She chose him out of all the crowd
OF men that came. and went;
His voice was low, his tie was loud,
But she was well content.
The first mans education was
Perhaps more fnished-and
Another's manner gave her cause
AS being much more grand.

AnOther's hair was curly;
Another's name was "Arthur"-Jim
Was chose by this grille.
And not for wealth and not for love
Was jim by Mabel chosed-
But that he was the one man of
The whole lot that proposed!

Eve was ever very clever,
And her summer garbadine
Was of color never duller
Than a brilliant apple green.
Quite contented., she Invented
Costumes very smart and trig;
Adam gaily told he daily,
You are shining in that rig.'
Well, the summer was a hummer
For humidity and heat;
But the lady in her shady
Garb looked very cool and sweet.
Came the autumn, and it brought EN-
Shorter days, and chill and cold;
And the vernal grew hibernal.
Changed to russell, red, and gold.
Eve, whose passion was the fashion
Made her garments up-to-date;
| Lovely, glowing colors showing
In her leafy garb ornate.
But when Adam said, Dear Madam,
Going-away gowns should be quiet;
And those ford hues are horrid,-
Red and gold in color riot."
Eve then made her something stadier,
OF dead fig leaves, dull and brown;
Her new suit, he called a beauty
Just right for travelling gown!

Los Angeles Cal, Jan. 5.-The grand jury
in "The Los Angeles Times" explosion case
returned twenty-five indictments late to-
day. All Of the indictments charge murder
IN connection with the crime. 1t IS not
likely that the names Of any OF the In
dicted will be made public until after ar
rests have been made. II is believed q
large number Of San Franciscans have
been indicted.
Wholesale murder, the outcome of dy-
uamite plot. Is understood to be the charge
set forth in all the indictments, but 1t is
thought that not more than three or four
men are named in the true bills.
More than forty witnesses, the majority
Of them connected with the union labor
movement, were summoned from San
Francisco and other cities In all, the
grand jury examined more than 30 persons
Among the labor leaders summoned from
San Francisco were Olaf Il. Tveitmoe and
Anton Johanssen, who were supposed to
have been acquainted with j. b. Bryce,
NJ A. Schmidt and David Kaplan, three
men under suspicion in the case, who were
in this city for a few hours after the
explosion, but subsequently disappeared

NEW TREATY WITH BRITAIN

quentiy on the subject, but who felt
compelled, under his oath as Senator.
TO vote for the amendment. The vote IN
the Senate stood so to 0 for the amend

treaties were ratified, but President
Roosevelt never exchanged ratifcations,
and the treaties are still doubtless MD
den in some dust covered pigeonhole or
the Department Of State.
A similar effort had been made In the
ey-Pauncefote treaty OF 1891, ana
it is on that that the proposed treaty
will probably be modelled. although that
convention met no greater success. being
rejected by the Senate. 1t provided
however for a system of arbitration by
commissioners, or nationals, and this
system has received some measure OF
approval since then, notably In the
case Of the commissions provided for ny
the Canadian waterways treaty, by the
canadian boundary treaty, and also by
tho eettlament of tho Newfoundland hsh-
cries case.
THE fate Of the Olney-Pauncefote
treaty was. I'm effect, not dissimilar 10
that of the later arbitration treaties. IL
named the King of Sweden as the final
arbitrator in certain instances, and went
into other details which. taken together
constituted q complete system or arpl-
tration. and the announcement OF IT'S
final negotiation commanded the admira-
ton of the world, even the Pope testiiy-
ing TO his qualification that so great
step toward the establishment or uniVe'-
sal peace had been achieved.
The Senate, however, jealous Of its
prerogatives and insistent on the strict
est construction OF its CONSTITUTIONS
mowers, amended the convention untl IL
finally bore little resemblance 10 It's orig
jnal form, and then, in May, 1884, alter

feated it by vote Of As to 26, the latter
number being four moro than the one
third necessary to compass its defeat.
The Result in Doubt.
OF course, public sentiment has Sreatly
advanced since that time. The fear, not
TO saw dislike, Of Great Britain then
prevalent in certain quarters mas
changed to a sentiment Of confidence ana
regard. and the popular demand FOR
every step which shall make for uni
versaI peace is potent. Possibly these
factors may combine to produce q
broader view in the Senate, although II
would be rash so to predict
