Special Message Probable.

The President. if it becomes necessary,
may send special message to Congress,
in the next day or SO. stating his position
and asking that the situation be made
clear. either by amending the bill or by
concurrent action in the form of a reso-
luton. The disposition of the Senate and
House leaders is against amending the
bill. but there is a disposition TO agree
upon concurrent resolution.
The dozen Boy Scouts from Burlington,
Iowa. who rode TO Washington on BIZ
cycles, were introduced to President Taft
today by Representative Kennedy.
President Taft today sent to the Senate
the nomination of Clinton w. Howard of
Bellngham. Wash, to be United States
judge for the western district of Wash
ington, succeeding Cornelius H. Hanford
who resigned while his conduct on the
bench was under investigation by con-
gressional committee.
Nominee Highly Recommended.
Mr.. Howard was highly recommended
to the President by Senator Jones OF
Washington and by bar associations and
other parties interested in this appoint
ment He was especially anxious that
this appointment be made with the great
est care because of the Hanford case and
the feeling it stirred up in Seattle and
other Washington cities In the western
district of the state
Judge Hanford's resignation was given
to the President several weeks ago while
his conduct on the bench was being in
vestigated by a congressional committee
Since that time the President has had
many conferences with Senator Jones
and others interested in the appointment,
and has received many letters from citi-
Zens of Washington state He decided
upon the Howard appointment after
final talk with Senator Jones today.

who stayed in camp for the parade saw
something which they should treasure In

Doubt Regarding Panama Bill.

President Taft was still undecided to-
day whether he will sign the Panama
canal bill. but it is believed he will do
SO with the understanding that Con-
gress will put through a concurrent
resolution that will remove the possi-
bility of the law conflicting with the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty. The President
and the majority of the members of
his cabinet who have been consulted
are OF the opinion that the bill as 1t
now stands would unquestionably in
validate the treaty, the Supreme Court
having held such to be the case In a
Chinese exclusion act. The President
thinks that a concurrent resolution
giving foreigners the right to bring
suits in the United States courts in
cases of alleged discrimina tion in tolls
would show the attitude of this coun-
try as to the treaty.
The President today talked with Sena-
tors Jones and Chamberlain and Rep
resentative Sherley on the subject. He
has been urged to sign the bill. Mr..
Sherley evidently agrees with the Presi
dent, as do the two senators. that it
will be best to leave no doubt of the
position of this country on the treaty by
adopting a concurrent resolution.

SATURDAY MARKET DAY
SECOND LARGEST IN HISTORY

Saturdays market day was the
biggest sale day that Abilene has
had for a year and it registers Sec
ond among the market days held
here. The merchants say that there
were more. people in their stores
than had been there for year and
the public sale which was held in
connection with the market day pull
ed in over 1920 for the farmers
who had goods for sale. The mar

very much pleased. The farmers

ONE W0MAN'S VIEWS
ON PUBLIC SMOKING

Smoking in motion-picture and
vaudeville houses might be prohibited
here as well as It is prohibited on
the mainland. There are few II any
pIayhcuses where men can smoke in
peace. Most women are accustomed
TO cigars and cigarettes, as their hus-
bands, brothers or friends often spend
their evenings smoking on the lanai,
and as q rule do not mind ii il the
smoker shows some consideration for
those around him. But at the thea.
tiers here some men, CT whom better
take particular delight in blowing the
smoke of some cheap cigar into the
faces Of men and women who show
their displeasure for such things. Ia
conversation with a gentleman the
other day, who, by the way, takes
great delight in making pictures in
smoke, this subject, was brought up,
and even he confessed that the smoke
from another's cigar tends, when
blown into his face, to make him nau.
seated. If this is the feeling that
comes over the seasoned smoker, what
then do you think one who is not ac-
customed to smoking herself feels like
after she has sat in front of one who
for two hours has blown the smoke
into her face? III smoking were not
allowed by the managers of theaters,
the people would go to the perform
ances Just the same, provided the at
traction was good one. When Pol
3ard's Lilliputians played their first
engagement here, some five years ago,
in the old Orpheum, the management
cut out smoking, still the house was
filled to its utmost capacity every
night When there is good show
on at the Opera House and the prices
are not too high, the people fill the
house in spite of the fact that no
smoking is allowed. There are al.
ways intermissions between the two
act plays long enough for smoke If
one needs it, and at the Liberty, where
there are two performances nightly,
each less than two hours in length,
surely one can dispense with his
smoke, particularly If he is near
woman. IL smoking must be allowed,
why not confine II to the seats that
are not reserved Those there may
not mind 1t, and II they do they can
get away from it by taking a re-
served seat the next time. This ar
ticle is not intended for the man who
when he sees that those who are near
him object to his smoking throws his
cigar away, but for the one who takes
particular delight in annoying ladies
as well as men, just because he has
the opportunity to do SO.

Trouble Not With Femininity,

DIES MONIES, August 1.-Bishop
austin Bowling of the Catholic do

Bishop Bowling said today:
Women are women, and they seek

U. S. UNIVERSITIES
LAG BEHIND GERMANY

NEW YORK; August 5.--Though
making more rapid advance than
formerly, this country universities
are still far behind Germany in. the
number of degrees of doctor of phil
oSophy conferred. and hence in the
preparation for research work, accord
ing to statistics prepared for scien-
tific journal here. '~
The total number of dectorates Of
philosophy conferred by American uni
versities this year was 49,, while the
twenty-one German universities. gave
about 170G of these degrees, Z hoWins
il is said, that this country is still
far behind Germany in the number OF
men adequately prepared for advanced
teaching and research. . ~ -. o.
Columbia, Chicago, Harvard, Yale,
Johns Hopkins, Pennsylvania AMI
Cornell have usually conferred about
three-fifths of all American doctors
degrees. Columbia has made a re.
narkable advance in 1.-THE last two
years, comforting this year eighty-one
doctorates, thus drawing ahead of Chi
cago. Yale and Johns Hopkins re-
main about stationary. Wisconsin con.
ferred this year twenty-seven degrees;
Illinois, twenty; California, fifteen;
Minnesota, twelve, and Iowa, seven
this being in each case a large al
vance over the number conferred in
any previous year.
