The Legislative Appropriations.


In communication to the Spring
field Reporter, the Hon. Justus Dart,
who represents that town in the leg
islature, critics what he regards as
the excessive appropriations voted
during the recent session. Mr.. Dart
was one of the ablest and most con-
scientious members of the General
Assembly, and his general conser-
vatism on all questions was allied
with a sensibly liberal spirit in the
treatment of every measure coming
before the house. What he has to
say, indicating his evident belief that
the legislature was disposed to be ex-
travagant, derives additional weight
from the fact that Mr.. DARTS votes
upon all questions involving expendi-
lures proved that, while he re-
garded it as essential to allow the
principle of true economy to rule, he
was not disposed towards policy
that might correctly be regarded as
niggardly. Mr.. DARTS letter fol-
lows:
''It was undoubtedly the deter
mined and fixed purpose of the exc
cutive department inaugurated last
October to give to the state a thor
Oughly economical and business like
administration for the two years en-
suing. Expenditures were to be linn
tied and appropriations to be closely
guarded. The auditor of accounts,

MRS. CHAMP CLARK
 CULINARY EXPERT

NEW YORK. March 23.-Labor is not undignified for any or the first
 ladies of the land at any time, according to Mrs. Cbamp Clark, wife of the next democratic speaker of the house. Mrs Clark's greatest pride is not thas she is soon to rank next in social prestige to the wife of the president and that she is
 to rule at many coming capitol ban quets, but rather it is that back in Pike county, Missouri, she took the prize for baking the best loaf of bread at a rural festivity and also took a prize for the best darned pair of socks. presumably those of the present democratic leader.
 While Mrs. Clark is domestic in everything that the term implies. she is also an advocate of woman's suffrage.
 T believe in woman's suffrage this far" she says. T believe that women should vote if they want to and if fitted for certain political places. all right. No one can be the judge. It is matter for the individual. We owe a great real to Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, for they paved the way for bigger and broader views in woman's realm. But on the other hand, we need the custodian of the home. and no one can gainsay that woman is by virtue of birth fitted for this"

 No date has been set for Q meet ing to organize the Democratic pro gressive league, but we shall prob ably gather in Washington and have our national headquarters here. The plan for the organization was very carefully thought out last year, and was presented to the senate in the closing days of the last congress by 1 Senator Francis C.. Newlands of Ne vada
 This plan was signed by a com mittee on charter membership. con sisting of well known democrats in various sections of the country. but ! it was deemed wise last year to lei the matter go over with little pub licity, as we preferred to prepare ourselves fully for the campaign oi 1912.

INVENTORS LEAP FAILS.
Jumps From High Building In Ills life
Saving Parachute and Is Badly Hurt.

BALTIMORE. March 3l.-With a para
chute that he had invented strapped to
his shoulders Clarence p. Rudasill jumped
from the top of grain elevator. III feet
high. at Canton this morning.
Before he hit the ground the parachute
partially fulfilled the purpose for which
it was intended. When picked up by
spectators Rudasll was suffering from
many bruises and cuts At the hospita al
it was said his condition was serious.
The inventor said that in spite Of his
injuries he believed the experiment had
demonstrated the practicability Of his
invention.
Rudasill has long sought an opportunity
to test his contrivance both in this city
and in Washington. He claims for it
virtues that would be appreciated by an
aviator in the event Of his aeroplane meet
ing a mshap in the air.
All the aviator would have to do, he
says. would ke to spring from his machine
and let the parachute bring him safely
to the ground.
A few weeks ago Rudasill mounted to
the top Of the Washington Monument in
Washington. Guards who thought he
was about to jump prevented him. FL
nally he obt tanned permission to jump from
the elevator here. With deliberation he
made his preparations and it was an hour
after he reached the top OF the elevator
that he was ready. Taking q final look at
the straps that bound the folded para
chute to his shoulders he jumped.
The next instant he was whirling
through space at a terrific speed. The
parachute remained folded until the man
had fallen half hundred feet. Then. TO
the relief of spectators. it filled and
his speed was checked. 1t appeared for
moment that he would fall gradually
and safely. but gust of wind caught the
parachute and Rudasill was driven
against the side of the elevator. This
caused the parachute to collapse. In
another instant he had struck the board
walk on his knees
