SENATE CONTROL
!. FIRMLY IN HANDS
OF THE DEMOCRATS
Organization Committee in
Hands of Progressive
Demccrats-AnnOunce
Steering Committee

Washington, March 6.-Progressive DEM
ocratic control of the Senate was adj
vanced another important stage today
in the second days session of the caucus
of democratic senators. The choice yes
terday of Senator Kern of Indiana as
Senate leader was followed today by the
selection of democratic organization
committee on which the leaders of the So
called progressive forces were in COM
plete control.
The steering committee" which is to
map out a programme of reorganization
to determine the entire question of con-
troll, was announced by Senate Korn as
follows.
Senator Kern, chairman; Senators MARI
tin, Clarke of Arkansas, Chamberlain,
Owen, O'Gorman, Smith of Georgia, Lea
and Thomas.
Argue Miner Problems
For several hours the democrats argued
behind closed doors over the minor prob
Ions connected with their control of the
smaller branches of Congress. The routing
of republicans from their commodious
committee rooms. the change of employees
ton of new Senate officers had more
important part in the days discussion
than the broader question of committee
assignments and legislative policies.
All questions of Senate patronage were
referred to a special committee consisting
of Senator's overman. shiveley, johnson,
Hitchcock and Williams. The choice of
Senate officers was put over until to-
morrow, when the caucus Is to be re-
sumed. 1t Is expected that Senator Bacon
will be elected president pro tenn, but
there are many active candidates for the
positions of secretary and sergeant-at-
arms.
Determine Position
While the democrats We're in session the
republican steering committee, consisting
of Senators Lodge, Warren, Nelson, PEN
rose, Smoot, LaIollette. Brandegee,
Smith of Michigan, Crawford, Jones and
Fall, met in Senator Lodges offices and
canvassed the committee lists to deter
mine what positions they would ask for.
A delegation consisting of Senators Nell
son and Smoot was sent over to the DEM
ocratic caucus to learn what arrange
ments the democrats intended to make
about giving minority appointments to the
republicans, but no plan had been agreed
upon by the democrats.
It is anticipated that the democratic
plans for naming committees will not be
completed for some time. The active
leaders of the progressive forces are insis-
tent that the places on the important
communities shall be distributed evenly
among all democrats, and the work of or
ganization is to be pursued slowly.

PRATT. KANs., Sept. 27.-Profes-
sor L. L. Dyche received a very pc
culiar shipment from a man at Guy
mon, Okla, in which are six of the
most peculiar animals that Mr.. Dyche
or any other man of science has ever
seen.
The sender of the animal shipment
does not know what they are, but
knows that he caught them close to
Guymon and does want to know what
they are.
They are seemingly young and are
about four inches in length, having a
head like a catfish and a tail like a
channel cat, with a row of feelers
around the back OF the head similar
to the hair on a buffalo They have
four legs protruding from the sides
of the body. well separated from each
other, and the legs resemble the legs
of frog. They are very lively and
live under water as we'll as out of the
water for a short time. When agi-
tated they make a peculiar noise, sim
liar to a grunt or a tiny bark.

Atlanta Matron Declares 1t Requires Real Brain
Power for Woman to Garb Herself Becomingly.

Dressing as fine art finds an ex-
ponent in Mrs. Harry L. Stearns, of
No. 745 Peachtree street. Also the new
styles of Yomen's dress find cham
pion.
TT takes as much art for the mod
ern woman to dress becomingly as 1t
does for a singer, an artist, a writer
to succeed" said Mrs. Stearns yester-
day. And not only art, but brains.
MANY women succeed in dressing
well. that is, becomingly, because the
art seems innate with the sex. Some
do not succeed, and will never be
able to dress becomingly--unless by
chance-because they have not that
note Of artistic perception in their
makeup.
Somehow, that artistic sense
seems highly developed among Amer
lean women. as a general rule and
among Atlanta women particularly.
Nowadays. Mrs. Stearns thinks, the
demand for a talent in the matter of
dressing is greater than ever be-
cause of the styles.
In the old days OF crinolines, and
OF simple patterns. nearly all women
dressed well,"> she said. But now
that the styles are more complex, II
requires more cleveTness to dress
well. The demand on that artistic
sense is greater. There is a certain
Intangible, indescribable note of art
that must be attained, and which is
difficult
And being difficult II requires
brains as we'll as art"
However, Mrs. Stearns has no word
