Judge TWiggs, Governor-EIec
SIaton and Judge Lumpkin
Speakers at Banquet.

A white haired man was singing, in
throaty Highland brogue:
Where wild woods grow and rivers
row,
And many hill between
Bath day and night my fancy's flight
Is ever with my Jean"
Somewhere near a passing railroad
engine sounded its whistle with a note
az plaintive as that of the song. The
men in the long room Of the Burns Cot
tage of Atlanta Saturday evening held
their breaths during the dramatic pause
that followed, a pause in which the
plaintive whistle was repeated and pro-
longed.
Then, with a sudden patriotic exalta-
ton. they burst into a wild applause
space and time were forgotten-and
they were back with Bobbie Burns in
his cottage at Ayr There they re-
manned through as merry an evening as
ever Tam OShanter spent.
Due honor was accorded beloved Rob-
ert Burns in the dinner Of the Burns
the occasion of the 154th anniversary
of the poets birth. The spirit of Rob-
ert Burns the gay, rolliclling, human
spirit, descended upon the party.
Bonnie Lassies Toasted.
Now and then they We're wistfully
quiet as when the song of J. F. Black
wood and its obigato of the engines
whistle made thrilling combination.
But for most of the time "the minutes
wing'd their way wi pleasure" and the
Scots of Atlanta were jolly.
Annie Laurie. the girl from Killie-
crankie. and all the other bonnie lassies
Of the heather land were toasted the
evening through. Scots of Atlanta
have learned from Robert Burns at
least one thing-to love and not to be
ashamed. Not only love of lassies, but
love of all human kind-as Burns
taught-they expressed Saturday night.
They minded not TO tell of it, With
the dinner half over. they all were
telling of it, together.
Hamilton Douglas, former president
of the club and POSTMASTER at the din
ner. had the job of his life to keep them
from telling it in the wrong place.
He would pound for order frowning
at the songs that came from several
quarters. Usually the song was:
u love a assie. bonnie, bonnie lassie.
As sweet as the lily Of the vale
Then an Alien Note
Those who want to sing will please
gang oot" he would shout in the few
quiet intervals between these declara r.
tons of affection. But they started
again:
II love lassie, bonnie, bonnie, AISLE"
Then new note, alien but sincere,
would chime in:
How dry | am, how dry am.
Nobody knows how dry | am"
The day was saved. Laird Oberdorf-
er and Chieftan w. l.. Smith would
send in fresh detachments OF walters,
and the chairman would snatch the op-
portunity to introduce another speaker
or singer, or to announce another
course.
Each course was more wonderful
than the one before. Dishes that Burns
loved were brought in steaming from
the open fireplace, just like the one be-
fore which the poet sat and dreamed Of
Highland Mary and his other loves.
Several OF the dishes, like the haggis

SUFFRAGE ISSUE
Government WithdraWS EIeC-
tOraI Reform Bill to Evade
Grey Amendment.

LONDON, Jan. 27-The franchise
bill, providing for electoral reforms, was
withdrawn from parliament today by
the government because of the amend
ment proposed by Sir Edward Grey,
granting votes to women. Announce
ment that the bill had been withdrawn
was made following a meeting of the
cabinet at which Premier Asquith pre-
sided.
1t was said that a new bill eliminat-
ing the troublesome question of woman
suffrage would be introduced. A bill
granting suffrage to women may be in
troduced simultaneously by one of the
supporters of woman suffrage in the
house OF commons.
When the parliament convened the
necessary steps were taken for the
withdrawal of the franchise bill from
consideration of the house as COM
mittee of the whole.
High Tension in Commons.
High tension accompanied the as
sembling of the commons. a bitter
fight was in store over the Grey amend
ment granting votes to women. which
was to have been voted on today The
supporters of the suffragettes and the
ants were keyed up for hot debate.
More than two thousand uni
formed policemen detectives, secret
service agents and private bodyguards
today defended members of the cabinet
and protected government buildings
from assaults by the militant suffra-
gettes who have gathered here in great
numbers from all parts of the United
Kingdom for the biggest demonstration
since the fight for votes for women be-
gan.
Detectives Fill Streets.
Inspector Mccarthy, of Scotland
yard, made elaborate plans for the pro-
lection of Premier Asquith. Had Lon
don been filled with assassins, the pre-
cautions could not have been more
elaborate. one hundred mounted po-
licemen patrolled parliament square,
keeping a wary watch for women with
hatchets Downing street swarmed with
detectives
I'VE feel that we have been tricked
by the government and we have lost
patience" said Mrs. Emmellne Pank-
hurst, leader Of the violent squad. I'VE
have given the government every OPP
portunity to study the merit of our
plea, but they continually resort to sub
terfuge and refuse to meet us in the
open.
Sir Edward Grey and David Lloyd
George, respectively foreign minister
and chancellor, have been converted to
our cause, but this gives us little en-
enlargement so long as the ruling mem

the fnnan haddie, the blazing plum
duff, had moved Burns to poetry, and,
of course, it was necessary that the
poem in each instance be read when
the dish came in. Burns address to
the haggis especially was cheered
Judge Twigg Chief Speaker.
Moments of reverential quiet came
during several of the songs and
speeches, especially during the central
address Of the evening by Judge
Twiggs of Savannah, and during talks
like that of w. A. Meyer, Federal pris-
on warden, who lauded Burns as the
great humanitarian.
Judge Twiggs, one Of the foremost
orators of the state, proved that he was
Burns lover by his address. Burns
patent honesty, Burns tenderness and
sympathy, Burns delight in the world
and in life, Burns lovable personality
all these Judge Twiggs drew in the
course of his address.
Governo~-e elect John NJ Slaton. a
guest of the Burns club, introduced the
speaker, and Judge j. H. Lumpkln, of
the state supreme court, responded to
Judge Twiggs. In every formal speech
love and reverence for Bobbie Burns
was expressed.
In the songs, though, it was compan-
ionship with Burns was the dominant
note. Favorite singers were Alex
Strachan, with his limitations of Harry
Lauder; Robert Henderson, Of the Lii
thonia Burns club, who sang Mary Of

Penitential Fare.

How to Make Japanese Dishes For
Penitential Fare.
Soy. the national sauce of Japan.
made from the soy bean. is used in
most of the popular dishes of the mi
kado's realm. the recipes for few of
which are quoted.
mi sakana," which being translated
means fish cooked in soy" is well
worth trying. Bring to a boil In a
saucepan one cupful Of soy. one-quar-
ter cupful Of water and one heaping
teaspoonful Of sugar. Then add one
small turbot, sole or any other fish Of
your choice. Cook until the fish is
thoroughly done, and serve it in the
liquor in which 1t was cooked This
dish is good whether hot or cold.
"Hachi sakana" means broiled fish.
and the Japanese method Of preparing
it is interesting. They scorn gas
range. and the fire Of their choice
comes from bed Of redhot charcoal.
First Of all they split their fish in half
and as they broil it sprinkle over it
occasionally little salt and few
dashes of the almost omnipresent soy.
Salmon is particularly appetiZing after
having been subjected to this treat
ment. If you care to take the trouble
to CRATE half dozen large. firm rad
ishes and mix with them one table.
spoonful of soy you will have an ex.
cellent sauce for the fish
A somewhat novel way CT stewing
vegeta bles is to boil or steam them.
Then let them simmer for quarter of
an hour in a sauce made Of one cupful
of boiling soy which has been diluted
with small amount Of water.
Squash. carrots, satisfy. sweet or
white potatoes are very good when
treated thus. For vegetables other
than squash or sweet potatoes 1t ia
well to add heaping teaspOonful Of
sugar to the sauce.

"A man." he said, "entered a shop

of a beautiful girl. together with a note
saying:
"If you are single please write to me.
"a name and address followed, and
the man smiled. He was single, and
he put the photograph on his sitting

looking up from his book, he beheld it.
1t was very beautiful, and in week
he had fallen head over heels in love.
$50 he wrote to the girl. Another
week passed. week of anxious.
nerve racking suspense. Then the love-
sick man received this crushing letter:

FRANK WHEELER
FORFEITS BAIL
Well Known Citizen Arrested
for Disorderly Conduct
Leaves the City

At an early hour Tuesday morning
City Detective X. Y. Church was in
formed of some suspicious charac-
tiers being in the Crescent hotel, by
Frank Ellicott. who was acting as
caretaker while the house is in the
bankruptcy court, and accompanied
quietly, and locking the door behind
them, Church and Ellicott proceeded
to the room from whence the sounds
had come, and found there Frank
c. Wheeler, who gave his name as
Clark, and man calling himself
John Brown, but who is believed to
be a we'll known Seattle business
man, with Myrtle Patterson and
Irene Mitchell, all in state of dis
habille. The party was taken to the
city Jail, and a charge of disorderly
conduct booked against them. The
men put up $50 cash bail each and the
women secured bail later and will have
a hearing today. Wheeler and Brown
forfeited their bail and left town.
1t now transpires that Mr. Ellicott,
who is Wheeler's father-in-law, came
from Portland with the express pur-
pose of trapping his son-in-law, and
succeeded. Wheeler, who has lived
IS years in Aberdeen, and owns con-
siderably property here, has been
going the pace that kills for year
or two. He has an elegant home, on
North D street, and wife and four
children, who are universally respect
ed, and who have the sympathy of
the community in this scandalous af-
fair.
Wheeler was seen in his automo-
bile in Olympia Wednesday morning,
by c. M. Hartwell, of the Herald
staff, and was quite anxious to know
if his escapade had become public.
On being informed that it had, he
acted as if he was about to collapse.
He returned to the city yesterday
afternoon, and was served at his
home, with subpoena to appear in
the police court this afternoon, as a
witness against the women, in whose
company he was found.

hopeful in years, and that, barring
and possible contingencies, the lum

make up some of their losses of the
past four or five years, Will H. Wood
of San Francisco sees prosperity
ahead
Mr.. Wood says the Hardwood COM
pany, of which he is secretary, is to
build a new steamer at Raymond, the
keel of which has been laid, nearly
double the size of the ordinary steam
schooner. 1t will have a capacity of
something more than 100000 feet of
lumber and will be named the Salona
The name Salona became identified
with the HARDWOOD company when it
purchased the schooner Salona after
it had gone ashore near Willapa Har-
Dor and failed to be pulled off.
