gins December 2, and the bills put in
shape for passage at the extra session
to be called for April. And they will be
passed. with a reduction of not less
than so per cent on the great staple

profit by reduced cost of living within
q few months after the Democratic
congress convenes. The reduction will
be actual. definite, easily felt by the
consumers" said Congressman William
Schley Howard today at his home in
DeKalb county, just outside Atlanta.
He discussed the outlook for national
legislation with more than ordinary en-
thusiasm, and declared that the pledges
of the platform would be carried out in
letter and spirit and without delay.
Il believe that an extra session OF
congress will be called by President
Wilson for not later than April IT, he
said. And this session will reduce the

POSED AS
THE SAVIOR
Leader Of Russian Fanat-

His Followers
Western Press.


LODSE, Russian Poland, Jan. 27.-
Had it not been for squad of police
men who appeared upon the scene
just in the nick of time the living
body of man named KowlaslSi would
today be nailed to cross on the out
skirts of the town.
For some time number of fanat-
ical women here have been worship
ping Kowlaski, as their savior, in
fact the savior of the entire world.
To cruelty him and await his resur-
rection were the objects of the sect,
Recently huge cross was construct
ed and planted short diytance from
town by the new cult, which is com.
posed mainly of women of the Mo-
ravian community. For the past three
days and night the women had been
urging Kowlaski, their adopted lead
er, to allow himself to be crucified
so as to enable them to prove the
truth of their tenets of resurrection.
Kowlaski's faith had been strong,
but when the prospect Of being nailed
to the cross flashed before him his be-
lief began to weaken and finally he
strenuously opposed the plan to put
him to death. Ultimately thirty de-
termined women took his house by
storm and were proceeding with his
immolation when the police appeared
and put stop to the sacrifice.

MRS. THOMAS MASON SR.
SUCCUMBS TO DISEASE

At 2:1O this morning, Mrs. Thomas
Mason, pioneer resident of Durango
and La Plata county and a highly re-
spected citizen, died at the home Of
her son, Thomas, on Fourth avenue.
For the past four months Mrs. Ma
son had suffered from dropsy, and, at
the holiday season, her condition was
so serious that her daughter, Mrs. w.
X. Braydon, was summoned from Sill
verton. Mrs. Mason, who, through
out her life possessed great vitality,
and strong recuperative powers, raj
lied from the attack, and after a
few days, Mrs. Braydon returned
home, whence she was summoned last
Sunday. Early in the past week it
was evident that the end was mat
ter of a few days, but again Mrs.
Mason improved somewhat, although
the attending physician considered
the improvement was not permanent
Last night there was change for
the worse, and at 2:10 this morning
Mrs. Mason breathed her last. She
passed away very peacefully, without
sign of struggle or pain, going tt
her rest with the quiet trust Of
little child, whose, ,eyelids close gently
but tightly over eyes grown sleep,
after long day of playing in tn
sun. For so He giveth His beloved
sleep"

60 years of age, and was native o
Wales, where she was born on Fet

NO THIRD TERM.

BALTIMORE, Nd, Jan. 24.-Gen-
eral Felix Agnus, editor and publish
er of the Baltimore American, the old
est Republican newspaper in the coun-
try, in signed editorial in today's
issue, under the caption, "No Third
Term Candidate" says:
THAT incident at the college alum
nj banquet in Boston may be taken
as one of the straws to denote the
direction of popular sentiment. The
kissing of the name of former Presi-
dent Roosevelt, when mentioned in
eulogistic terms by DR.. Lyman Alb
bot, was not designed to be an af-
front to the individual, but an indi-
cation of the unpalatableness of
launching of him as a candidate,
which was looked for from the tenor
of the remarks of DR.. Abbott.
Theodore Roosevelt is practical
:---,-,-.,.fDtiipy. Ipe svuncr tne 1hct Is
recognized and the more firmly it is
stated the sooner will the Republican
party get its true bearings and the
drivel of hysteria that invokes his
name as savior of the party and
the country be checked.
Roosevelt is an impossibility be-
cause no American, however eminent
or esteemed, could secure the conf
deuce of the people to the extent of
having thm set aside the fixed ira
ditions and honored practice of the
nation in this regard.
Washington would not accept a
third term. Grant could not secure
it, Roosevelt will not have the oppor-
tunity to gain this distinction. He
will not have the opportunity, first
ard primarily, because he does not
want it, and secondly, because the
people do not want him to have it.
"Ethically it is inconceivable that
Mr. Roosevelt should be willing to
have his name presented as candi-
date before the Republican national
convention. Such remarkable exhibit
ton of bad faith, and the term may
he used without offense in the light
of Roosevelt's expressed opinions,
would merit and receive stern rebuke
Of the people"

the right to vote as they please, and

WIS unquestionably concealing the
material fact as to the break between
Col. George Harvey and Governor
Wilson, Colonel Henry Watterson has
exploded a brand new bomb in the
Wilson campaign.
Colonel Watterson makes the direct
statement that at the request of Gov
ernor Wilson, he {Watterson) under
took to raise money for Wilson's pres
idential campaign, and that his eff
forts were not altogether unfruitful
This, however, Wilson strongly de-
MED. In this connection the name of
Thomas F. Ryan came not unneces-
sarily into his mind and Governor
Wilson'S managers were delighted
with his suggestions.
Colonel Harvey had nothing what
ever to do with it and, so far as he
knew, knew nothing about it, adds
the colonel
Colonel Watterson today added fuel
to the fire with an additional state
ment in which he said:
'In my letter to Senator Tillman
| promised proof of any statement
made by me that might be disputed.
Governor Wilson denied that ] had
any authorization. from him or any
agent of his to raise money for his
campaign. l have proof that l have
not only the authorization but that
actually raised considerable sum-
| hold myself ready to furnish this
proof to Senator Tillman at once if
call on me as | am confined to my
hotel and cannot call on him.
IF Senator Tillman's single aver
ment, after inspecting this proof, be
either equivocal or insufficient l pro-
pose that Governor Wilson name two
confidential friends, i naming two,
and the four to name the fifth and
they to be a court of gentlemen es-
tablished to determine the issue be-
tween you"
Senator Tillman, at noon, declined
to reply to Colonel Watterson's chal-
lenge. "If Colonel Watterson has any
proofs of what he says he ought to
publish them. l have nothing more
to say" was Senator Tillman's only

GREENWICH, Conn, Jan. 26.-Fil-

New Rochelle, N. Y, in 1901 of 13-
year-old girl to a 16-year-old boy.
According to the papers in the suit,
Adams before his marriage was ex-
