Old King Cole was q merry old

blase. But the opening OF the oyster
season at the Piedmont Hotel Mon.

have caused the old fellow to bestiP
himself
While the formal after-theatsv
opening did not take place until 10
o'clock. the excitement really began
at 6 o'clock, when the dining room
was opened for dinner An orchestra
of five women furnished a mixture oe
the latest rags and melodious clas-
sizes. At 10 o'clock a shrill blast on a
cOrnet announced that the after the
alter season was on. The 125 tables
in the main dining room filed rap
idly.
Assistant Manager Frank Taylor
was in charge OF the opening and re

this were about the beginning of a con
cresslonal session instead Of its close
there might. be d lot Of real good ac.
complished in the way. Of legislation,
and more particularly In the matter Of
expediting business. In the last two
weeks Of the congress the congestion
OF business is something disastrous TO
good measures, which cannot be con.
stdered for want, Of time.
And then there Is the fact that after
two years Of pretty much continuous
session tile members ofsthe house have
learned what is needed in the way Of
reforms in rules and practice, but they
forget oil about 1t when they enter
upon the work Of q new congress.
Rules for expedtttng business are use,
less at that time. aud now when such
rules are necessary there is no time
to consider them or adopt them.
1t Is a good deal like the way our
government has in the past handled the
army. In times Of peace. there being
not much use for the army. it was not

CHANGED His Terms.


Changed His Terms.
In every speech on conseryations-and
he has made many-Senator Newlands
of Nevada has frequently used the
terms cooperation and coordination"
referring to the national government
and the states, In his most recent
speech on the subject he used the term
"team work." applying it to the same
thing he has always called by different
names. "Newlands must be reading
the baseball dope" was the comment
of man in thespress gallery.
I. Loaded Bill.
When the house refuses to consider
measures which have been sent over by
the senate the upper branch gets even
by "loading an appropriation BILL"
That was done with the District OF Co
lumbia appropriation bill. Measures
that should never have been attached
to it were piled on regardless OF the
rules.
The measures had passed the senate
months ago, but had been ignored by
the house District committee. And the
senate promptly evened up matters by
using an appropriation bill so as to
make the house vote on their measures.
1t is not always possible to ignore the
senate, even il the house has the power
of initiating revenue and appropriation
bills.
Seven Combinations.
/. Up to within two weeks Of adjourn
ment the senate had confirmed only
seven Of more than 1000 nominations
sent in by President Taft at this ses-
sion. One was John Brown, postmas-
ter at Concord, N. H.; another Carmi
Thompson to be- United States treas
urer, and the others were Eve army mp
pointments. Such was the effect Of the
filIbuster organized by the Democratic
minority. The Concord confirmation
was a compliment to Senator Gallinger
on account Of its being his home town.
Dog Was Privileged. Z
There are strict orders against dogs
in any Of the department buildings, so
one day when dogtwas seen ambling

meut some one begun to ask questions.
"yyhat is that dog doing IN the war de-
partnent:' was a vigorous inquiry.
Just then 1t was observed that the
dog was with Secretary stlmson. and
it was his dog. No. further questions
were asked

INJURIOUS HABITS OF HENS
Feathers May Be Cured by Al.
lowing Them Free Range.

Sometimes flock of hens acquire
the habit Of pulling and eating each
others feathers. In some cases they
are so bad that the flesh of the fowls
become torn and sore, and the whole
flock Is nearly naked.
When they first show the signs of
this vice measures should promptl-
be taken TO cure them.
The trouble is caused by too closely
conhning the fowls and allowing
them to be idle Where possible they
should be turned on the range where
tho fascination of chasing bugs and
eating the green stuff will make them
forget the bad habit
When they cannot be turned out
they should be made to scratch for
their grain in deep litter Bundles
OF wheat or oats, or sunilower heads
may be hung up just high enough
that they will have to work to get the
seeds. Give them some turuips or
mangle beets or cabbage heads TO
work at-anything to keep them IL
exercise and busy. Feed them pler,T y
