Washington. March 25y--Democrat,

President Wilson would recommend To
Congress consideration OF the curren-
cy question as well as perhaps 9th ar

VIII urge other needed legislation when
the tariff is out of the way Con-
sideration Of currency and other ques-
tions, might carry the session well into
the autumn.
Democratic Leader Underwood Is
known to believe that the tariff will be
disposed of In the House by May / and
by both houses by July /. Speaker
Clark said that if only the tariff were
taken up. Congress could adjourn the
middle Of August, while other leaders
said tariff revision would be ready for
the presidential approval by Aug. 1.
The big problem with which the
House ways and means committee ma
iorty now is wrestling is the income
tax.
Appointment OF Diplomats.
Secretary OF State Bryan IL due back
in Washington from his western trip
Wednesday. The president is expected
To- be ready to take up with him the
appointment of men To AZ least five
diplomatic posts which Washington
observers regard as of the most press
ing Importance. Ambassadors To Eng
land, Mexico. Japan. Russia and u
minister To china probably will be
named within short time
The London and Mexican embassies
have been looked upon as those which
should be filled first because of the
Panama free tolls question with Great
Britain and troubled conditions of
Mexico.
For the Japanese and Russian posts
several men are being considered, but
il is not believed any final choice has
been reached.

Plan to Save Well Diggers.


o. L. Wilson of this city, an old
time we'll digger, has devised plan
which he believes will save well dig
gers from suffocation, if used. Dur
ing his long experience Mr.. Wilson
has seen and heard of many diggers
who have never returned from wells
alive, and it is for the protection Of
the men engaged in well digging that
he desires to give wide publicity to
his plan. Mr.. Wilson's plan is sim
pie one and consists of punching holes
in shoe or small box, placing a
young chicken therein and lowering
the box containing the chicken to the
bottom of the well with rope. The
chicken should be allowed to remain
there for a reasonable space Of time
and then brought back to the surface
again. If the chicken is still alive
when it reaches the surface, the well
is safe to enter. If, however, the
chicken is dead, the well contains gas
and is unsafe to enter. Mr.. Wilson
believes that if well diggers will use
his plan they will be enabled to OPP
crate with perfect safety.

That Is the question baseball fans

Mack starts the comm. season on;

Possibly the only thing that has
been giving Connie much worry has
been the orttscId problem. For

Unless the wise Connie has gone

CAPTAIN Danny Murphy has AS
surcd Connie that he is in perfect

calls this spring. The fact that Har-
