No Compromise
Says Roosevelt at
Progressive Club

New York. Feb. 13.-Former Presi-
dent Roosevelt made his first public
appearance in the councils of the Pro-
gressive party for many weeks, We'd
nesday night, to say that so far as he
was concerned, there would be no
compromise, no amalgamatio no
yielding in the fight for the party.
The Progressive party has come to
stay" he declared.
The Ex-President again attacked the
supreme court of Idaho for its deci-
sion denying the Progressive party a
place on the ticket at the fall election
Many of the conspicuous figures in
the Progressive campaign, last fall,
gathered for the Lincoln day dinner
of the National Progressive Club. The
seats at the table Were all taken,
many of them by women, and hun
dreds of spectators filled the balcony
overlooking the bail room in which
the dinner was held. Albert J.
Beverage, Progressive candidate for
Governor of Indiana at the last cleo
ton; Oscar S. Strauss. who ran for
governor in New York; Miss Mary
Antin, a New York settlement worker,
and Ex-Congressman w. Bourke Cock
ran made speeches.
Col Roosevelt declared unequivocal-
" against the amalgamation of the
Republican and Progressive parties as
recently proposed by one of the leagu-
ers in the Progressive campaign. last
fall.
1.-THE Progressive party, he said,
will amalgamate with neither of the
two old parties, both of which are
boss-controlled and privilege-ridden.
We believe that in each of these
parties, however, there are hundreds
of thousands of good honest men and
women, who are Progressives. The
only place for them is in our party.
We will welcome them in and we will
treat them on an exact equality with
ourselves, paying not the slightest
heed to whether they are ex-Republi-
cans or ex-Democrats. We are all
Proressives together and nothing else,
we of the Progressive party and ours
is the only party competent to mould
Alright the future of this mighty Re-
public"
Col Roosevelt declared that the de-
cision OF the supreme court of Idaho
was "An even greater blot on the
American judiciary than the bred
Scott decision itself
Such a decision he asserted shows
the need of the power of popular re-
call of the judiciary"
A party of 200 persons was present
from the New. England states, and
there were delegations from a dozen
other states.

Man Who Gives Wife All His Salary
No Man at All, Declares Judge.

promised to give his wife all his sal
airy, each week.
L don't want you to do that" said
the judge. "A man who gives his wife
all his salary is no man at ALL The
man is the treasurer of the family and
he should be the financial head in
reality as well as theory. \ man must
take some pride in the fact that he
is man and the head of the house"

admitted he was making $24 a week,

Washington, Feb. 13.-Convinced
that the two fires that destroyed
more than $4,000 worth of property
belongings to the department of fagri-
culture were of incendiary origin, de-
tectives have been put to work in the
hope of uncovering The identity of the
firebug. The fires occurred, Saturday
and Sunday mornings, and within "a
hours of each other.
The first was discovered in the
basement of the big marble building
recently erected and a number of val
liable records We're wiped out before
1t was extinguished. The second blaze
virtually destroyed a small laboratory
building. Fire Marshal Nicholson de-
clared, Wednesday, after making an
investigation, that both fires were
highly suspicious"

HOW TO MAKE UP.
Suggestions That May Be Helpful to
the Amateur Actor.

The face should be rubbed over with
cold cream. which must be allowed to
sink thoroughly into the pores of the
skin. Next a coating of grease paint is
added. and this, of course. can be OBJ
tanned in any shade to suit the part
the actor is playing.
Then dust over with a hare's foot,
and apply rouge to the cheeks, paint to-
the lips and again dust over with pow
der in order to take off any greasy eff
feet. Afterward the eyes can be "bnilt
out" with black cosmetic, but for
drawing room theatricals care m It
be taken that the makeup is not too
heavy.
For proper stage and hall much
more attention should be given to the
details of the makeup. 1t must be re-
membered, says the London Chronicle,
that the footlights cast glow upon tho
face from below, where ii is generally
in shadow, and therefore the shadows
that naturally fall upon the face and
that we are accustomed TO see are re-
versed by the lighting of the stage.
When this difficult but fascinating
art is understood persons face may
be utterly TRANSPORTED by the makeup.
For instance, even a thin and bony
neck can be made to look plump and
smooth if the little trick is known.
When the eollarbone stands in relief,
making dark depressions on either
side, line of white paint can be put
where these shadows fall, and the
prominent bone may he tim A.
with flesh colored tinting that wil
TACT as. shading.
The best way of making small nose
appear larger, than it really is, is to
draw a line OF white down the center,
from the bridge to the. tip, carefully
blending ii into the general teae of the
skin. When the light strikes upon tass
lighter line it is brought into promi-
nence, and thus the nose appears larg-
or than 1t really is. If on the other
hand it is to be made coquettish and
retrousses the nose should be whitened
underneath and around the nostrils.
