OBJECTION BY BR|ST0W
STAYS RELIEF MOTION
Effort to Increase Allowance
to Miss A. v. Houghton
Temporarily Delayed.

An effort to increase the sum to be
paid by the government to Miss Alice
v. HOughton for injuries received while
working in the census Office was
blocked in the Senate today by objec-
ton on the part Of Senator Bristow of
Kansas. While 1t was plainly obvious
that a majority Of the senators present
were in favor of granting the increase
from $4,000 to $500. Mr.. Bristow, by
threatening to talk the entire day on
the subject. and so tie up all other
legislation, caused Senator MARITIME of
New Jersey. who was championing the
cause of Miss Houghton. to withdraw
his motion for Immediate considera-
ton and to give notice that he would
call up the bill for action Friday i'm
mediately after morning business.
Results Of the Accident.
Miss Houghton lost her entire scalp
more than a year ago. when her hair
was caught in the revolving crank of one
of the machines in the census office.
Since then she has suffered excruciating-
~ The Senate last April passed a bill
allowing Miss Houghton $500 for her
injuries. This measure is now pending
in the House. Senator MARITIME this morn
ing moved to recall the bill from the
House and reconsider the vote by which
it was passed for the purpose of increas-
ing the amount to $500.
Senator MARITIME described the suffer
ings of the young woman and declared
that no senator ought to hesitate In as
senting to a more generous appropriation
for her.
Not all the wealth in the United States
Treasury would compensate d woman for
the loss of her crOWning glory, her beau
tiful hair" declared the senator from New
Jersey.
Senator Bristow said that he had looked
into the case, and must object to the
consideration of the bill Senator Bacon
of Georgia hoped that the senator from
Kansas would withdraw his objection.
Interfering Questions.
The question was then brought up as
to whether the consideration of the meas
ure would not interfere with the unani-
nous consent agreement to take up the
bill relating to bills of lading, in which
Senator Pomerene is interested. and upon
which he had stated he would address
the Senate.
Senator Clapp, in charge of the meas
ure, was out of the chamber when morn
ing business closed. and the President
pro tenn. Senator Gallinger. had recog-
niZed other senator's and Senator Mar
tine for other business.
Senator Gallinger said that in his judg-
ment his recognition of Senator MARITIME
had not been out of order and he laid the
matter before the Senate. which sustain
ed his judgment by large vote.
Mr. Bristow's announcement that he
would debate this bill at length and halt
other legislation, finally caused Senator
MARITIME to withdraw his motion and give
notice of calling up the measure later.

Movement Condemned.
The resolution as presented condemned
the movement as a fraud. through which
the boys OF the nation were simply being
drilled into slavish obedience, BETTING

spirit Of militarism and a Willingness

PHYSICIANS AND FEES.
A Medical Wow Of tho Doctors Charge

A Medical Wow Of tho Doctors Charge
For His Services.
Those who discuss the physicians
fee frequently miss the essence Of it.
AS a matter of fact. under present
social conditions the charge made to
the wealthy and well to do is the nor
NAL and proper fee; the lowered
charges made to those less fortunate
are concessions. The tremendous field
of the physicians charity is therefore
usually underestimate, for it extends
to a great majority of his patients.
In olden times. when medicine was
nearly all art and but little science,
the fee was unknown. Like other art
lists, the leech received an honorarium.
the weight Of which depended natu-
rally upon the resources of the patient.
The popular impression that physi-
clans make the rich pay for the poor is
incorrect. They extend their services to
all alike, and all are supposed to pay as
much as they can afford for services
really priceless and impossible to rep
resent adequately in money values.
Any attempt made to establish stand,
ard fees by law is sure to work in
Justice to the physician. The stand
ard" fee would have to be much high
er than the average fee at present and
there would have to be some method
of enforcing it's sure payment. Only
with the standard fixed, as now. by
the ability Of the wealthy is 1t possible
for the poor to receive the benefits OF
the highest professional skill without
losing their self respect-New York

ladies not only in the United States
but all over the world feel the same
way about it. To this wonderful scalp

My head is now covered with new

Most hair troubles come from dan

this dandruff by killing the germ
which causes it. 1t also stimulates
flow of blood which nourishes the
follicles. The scalp being healthy
the hair does not come out and the
new hair is allowed to grow.

No one is ever disappointed in New

After the business on hand had been

Ole Bull began to explain the mar

An Egyptian smoker of hasheesh is
even a more helpless slave than the
Chinese opium fiend. He knows that
in the end he will become a mailman,
vet he rushes toward the awful goal
with unrelaxed speed. With the
strange exaltation which first comes
to the smoker he feels himself floating
from cloud to cloud or alighting in the
gardens of palaces all his own. Most
of the hasheesh which Egypt con-
sumes comes from Greece. From the
husks Of the hemp seeds and the ten
der hops Of the hemp plant the Greeks
manufacture a greenish powder whose
fumes bring the ecstasy its victims
desire.
