attention to change in crop prospects

Liverpool came in today a bout points

pressed for sale
Our market opened about points

A RESPONSIVE CHORD
By NORA NAIL.

What did he ever see in herr" The question fell from the lips of a girl of twenty, fully conscious of the budding beauty of young womanhood and all 1t meant of power. "She hasn't apparently one redeeming fea- ture; why, she is positively gawky"
 The woman addressed, an attractive matron of about 35 turned a criti- cal gaze after the figure of the little woman disappearing down the street, and knowing smile curled her lips.
 T will tell you," she said
 About five years ago Arthur Smith was engaged to the most beautiful girl In our set; you are too young to re- member just how beautiful she was at any rate, she completely conquered Arthur-he had eyes for no one else when she was near. At every func- tion he was her devoted slave-every wish was anticipated and gratified- nothing was too good for her-no task too difficult to perform that would add to her comfort and happiness.
 When the Spanish-American war broke out, Ann Reynolds, now Mrs. Smith, had been studying for two years to be trained nurse. She had one supreme gift-the gift of tender ness, and Nellie, in a woman this is not to be despised. All women do not possess it. Ann's brother and Ar thur happened to be injured about the same time and were placed on beds side by side in the same southern hos pital. On account of her training and her brothers illness, Ann Rey- holds volunteered to go as a nurse to this hospital, and endeavor to save not only her brothers life, but to do what she could to save the lives of others who had become i'll in the gov ernment service.
 About this time Arthur had writ ten an appealing letter home, or, rath- CT, had asked that 1t be written. as he was too i'll to do more than ex. press wish, asking that his sweet heart come to him (they had been engaged just before he left for the south), as he feared he had contract ed dangerous and contagious dis ease. but usually the ones we love do not consider such things as this when a life is concerned; at least, l am generous enough to think that most women would not. We'll to make long story short, Arthur's sweetheart refused fatly to go to his bedside. It afterward came out somehow these things always do that she feared contracting the fever
The Prescott daily news., 1912-12-02

and thereby mGrrirg her beauty.
 When Ann arrived at the hospital and found that the patient in the bed next to her brother was from the same city as she, they said she work ed untiringly with him night after night with an intensity that probably saved his life-at least, the doctors gave her the credit-and won out with glowing words of praise from them all. When it was all over. how ever, and he was on the high road to health, she succumbed under the strain, and lay for weeks lowering be- tween life and death.
 During her illness Arthur wrote short note to his flancee, releasing her from her engagement, and when he re- turned home, which did not happen for many weeks afterward, he an nounced his engagement to the little woman who had risked a very pre- cious and useful life to save that of a perfect stranger. One of his old friends said afterward that in an nouncing the news to him he had made the remark that those few weeks in the hospital had taught him the most valuable lesson in his life that beauty of face and form, while pleasing to the eye, were but fleeting possessions, and that as he watched the devoted and self-sacrificing little woman moving from one to the other of the sufferers, giving her service willingly and with grace and sweet ness that frightened the whole place, bringing hope and sunshine to many homesick and despairing man, he had realized that there was something deeper, nobler and more transcendent- ly beautiful in the world than mere physical beauty, and one which would last until death and he finished by saying: And so l lost my heart, or, rather. gave 1t into keeping of the no- blest woman l had ever met, or ever expect to meet in this world.'"
 The speaker finished the story in a low. soft voice, and as she glanced over at the beautiful young girl oppo- site, she noticed tear trickling down her cheek, and the serious look that met hers from the brown eyes told her that the recountal had touched responsive chord in her nature.

SUFFRAGETTE SENT TO JAIL
Had Been Arrested for Carrying Bombs to Hall Where Lloyd
 George Was Speaking.

Aberdeen, Scotland, Dec. 2.-Mili- tant sut1ragettes brought about two scenes Of extreme violence in which a woman's shoes and a horse whip were used as weapons.
 The first outbreak occurred when three of the women. Joyce Locke, Fan nie Parker and Mary Pollock, who were arrested in possession of ex- plosives in the music hall where Chancellor LloydGeorge vas to speak, were brought before the magis- trate.
 After hearing the e,.dence the magistrate remanded tker! for further Inquiry When he made the order. Joyce Locke removed her shoes and hurled one of them at the magfs- trate's head and then threw the oth- CT at the head of the clerk of the court She was promptly committed Tor contempt of court.
 The second outrage was committed by one of the members of a party of suifragettes who were waiting at the railroad station for the departure of Chancellor Lloyd-George. The woman mistook the Rev. Forbes Jackson for the chancellor of the exchequer in disguise and lashed him across the tace With heavy horsewhip.

BOTH HOUSE AND SENATE CON VENE FOR THREE MONTHS
 LEGISLATIVE WORK.
MONEY BILLS TO BE PASSED
Appropriation Measures Make Up the Bulk of the Program, and Little Constructive Legislation
 Will Be Attempted

Washington, Dec 2-The house and senate both convened at noon to. day for the final session of the sixty. second congress. They will remain at work for about two weeks and then adjourn for the holidays. Returning to Washington early in January, the law, makers will resume their labors, which will come to an end March 4 with the inauguration of MT. Wilson as president
 Appropriation bills will take up the time of congress almost exclusively, and there is no expectation that any great amount of constructive legisla. tion can be accomplished before the advent of the Democratic administra. t1on. The members must act upon more than a dozen bills carrying total appropriations of over a billion dol lars.
 Two Bills Ready for Action.
 Two of the annual budgets are now ready-the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill and the Dis trict of Columbia bill. These, possibly, Will be passed by the house and sent over to the senate before the Christ. mas adjournment. The naval mili. tary, postoffice, Indian, Notifications, diplomatic, pensions and minor bud gets must be passed in January and February.
 It is apparent to experienced mem bers that such big questions as the tariff the trusts and the currency problem cannot be tackled in the days intervening between December 2 and March 4. Congress will be forced to appropriate at the rate of about S12,500,000 per day in order to meet the running expeAses of the U4-.ed
The Prescott daily news., 1912-12-02

States government during the fiscal year of 1913. This immense task prac. tically precludes all hope of general legislation and unusually fast work will be required to dispose of the ap, propriaton measures on the eve of the incoming administration.
 On the other hand the Democrats of the house, cognizant of the fact that their party will control the entire governmental machinery after Presi. dent Wilson is inducted into office, are loath to undertake general legis. lation during the short session, even if the opportunity were offered. The Democrats figure that it useless to consider legislation which might meet stumbling block in a dying Repub, lican senate or at the White House.
 What the Committees Will co.
 It is anticipated that the house com. mittee on banking and currency will continue it's investigation of the money trust and may make a tenta. tive draft of bills to amend the cur. rency laws It is not expected, how ever, that any effort will be made to enact these into laws during the short session, and the committee, in effect. will mark time until the change of administrations.
 The ways and means committee will plug ahead in it's preparation of bills revising the Payne-Aldrich tariff law, but none of these measures will be brought out until the beginning of the sixty-third congress, which will be convened in extraordinary session about April 15
 The judiciary committee of the house will be largely concerned with the impeachment proceedings against Judge Robert w. Archibald of the commerce court, which are now pend. ing before the senate and will be taken up very soon. This will prohibit the immediate consideration by the committee of the trust question. Amendments to the Sherman law probably will await the converting of the new congress, although sporadic hearings may be held by the judiciary committee during the lulls in the Archibald impeachment trial.
 The Archibald trial probably will en. gage the attention of the senate for several weeks, and this, together with the annual appropriation bills, will fully occupy the time and attention of the upper chamber until March 4.
 The prospects are that most of the committees of the house and senate will mark time during the months of December, January and February and that no important legislative matters, other than the supply bills, will be seriously considered.

Profound Linuuist.

There had been fatal accident at
the railroad crossing in little Penn
sylvania town, says the Philadelphia
Record. and the coroner, pompous
old fellow, who magnified conscien-
tiously both his Office and it's incum-
bent, had impaneled jury for, the in
quest.
There was only one witness or the
accident, an illiterate Slav from the
coal mines who could understand no
English. With him the coroner began
to struggle.
"Can you speak German?" he asked.
The man shook his head.
Can you speak Italian?" continued
the official Again the man shook his
head.
Can you speak Hungarian" The
same response.
Can you speak Russian" finally
asked the coroner. Again the man
shook his head.
Its no use, gentleman" said the
coroner, turning TO the jury. 1--WE can't
proceed with the case. I've spoken to
this man in five different languages,
and can't make him understand me"
