Some Important Events Marked
Down on the international
Schedule

Washington, NOV. 29.-The ErzC
regular session o. the SiX-y-,hirj
Congress Will be convened al noon
Monday. at which time the lie o.
the special session, which has been
in session since April :. will expire
by constitutional Limitation. As The
two Houses are already organized
and the legislative machinery in
running order it IS likely that the
regular session Will lose little time
IN getting down to BUSINESS.
President Wilson has signifeJ his
intention to read his annual mes
sage to the two Houses. 1t is eX-
pectei that the message will be
much shorter than the country has
been accustomed to in late years and
that it Will be confined only TO the
most important matters. 1t is con-
idently expected also that the Pres
ident will give most attention to the
subject Of trusts and will probably
make plain his views concerning an
antitrust measure that he would
like to see Congress enact into Law
this winter.
Not alone the proceedings OF Con
gress. but other matters as we'll. viii

PIGEON USED IN POLITICS
Bird Found in Central Park, New
York, Believed to Have Come
From Philadelphia.

The strawberries may come and
the strawberries may go, but the chief
is always with us. How are you going
TO voter"
This election eve inquiry was found
attached to large gray homing
pigeon which fell exhausted in Cen
trail park near the menagerie and was
picked up by Daniel Burns, who has
charge OF the ayiary.
A small brass ring encircled tho
pigeons neck. to which was fastened
an aluminium tag with the initials ~.
M" and below them the letters "L. l."
The election query was written on a
small piece of paper which was at.
tached to the tag.
Burns gave the bird some food and
water and after three-quarters of an
hours rest 1t was liberated. The. pig
con rose straight up in the air to a
high altitude and then headed south.
1t was thought that the pigeons
home was in Philadelphia, and the
strawberry reference was to a famous
remark OF James McNichol, the Re-
publican organization boss there, who,
at the height OF his power, once said:
"As a boy l was glad to get pork and
beans. Now I have strawberries and
cream."-New York Times.
