WASHINGTON. July 7.-Visitors at
the Senate wing of the Capitol re-
Gently saw such a session as they
probably never will see again. 1t was
the mock session, with the eighteen
pages of the Senate acting the parts
of Senators, while Joseph O'Toole.
chief Of pages, presided in Vice Pres
ident Marshalrs place.
The rules provide that pages shall
not be under II years of age nor over
16, and their uniform is white
blouse shirt and knee breeches. With
great dignity, save for occasional gig
giles, they introduced bills for appro-
pirate reference" offered resolutions
and answered to the names of Sen
ators when the roll was called. In
the press gallery notes on the pro-
.ceedings were taken with becoming
solemnity.
One youngster introduced a bill
that almost broke up the meeting. 1t
bore the title ITO prohibit Senators
from using f1rewater, and for other
purposes" Another was entitled "A
bill to relieve bull pup" 1t was
duly referred to the committee on
dog fights.
The opposition to these measures
was led by a lad named Mccoy, and
he continued his leadership with
great zest until a resolution was Of
ferred directing the Sergeant at
Arms to put a Maxim silencer on
Mccoy"
The effectiveness of this paria-
mentary stroke was increased when
1t was noticed that Charles p. Hig-
gins, Sergeant at Arms OF the Senate,
was standing in the doorway grinning.
The bane Of. a pages existence is
a little volume known as the soak
book" in which delinquent pages are
soaked" with various penalties.
Young Senator" Mccoy was able to
regain all his lost prestige by offer
ing q resolution that the soak book
be burned with fire"

NURSE WHO WE'D
To SAVE MANS
LIFE SUES HIM
But Woman Who Repents Action
Is Denied a Divorce Decree
by Court.

LOS ANGELES, July (Which?
Marriage and the saving Of a human
life or refusal and the moral respon-
sibility of its loss?
This was the question Mrs. Dorothy
Lander a pretty 20-year- nurse
faced in the operating room Of the
Clara Barton Hospital when she
agreed to become the wife of Kirk c.
Lander, from whom she now seeks
her liberty.
She testified in Judge Monroe's
court that she married Lander to save
his life
This strange romance was revealed
by the young woman as a witness in
her own behalf Her husband, she
said, was a patient at the Clara Bar
ton Hospital. She was his nurse and
had attended him for ten days.
He suffered a relapse and an opera
ton was declared by the attending
physicians to be necessary to save his
life. He was placed upon the operat-
ing table but refused to submit 70
the operation until he had seen his
nurse.
When she appeared. he told her that
he loved her-that life without her
was not worth living. II she prom
ised to marry him he would submit
to the operation necessary to save his
life, he said, and if she refused he
would die.
The operation was successful and
two days later the couple were mar
ried. Mrs. Lander sought a divorce
on the grounds of non support, al
though she admitted that she had
never lived with her husband, who
contested the action.
Judge Monroe held that the young
woman had failed to make out a case
legally. Mrs. Lander was heartbroken
when the court denied the decree.
