PROGRESSIVE PARTY
PLANS HOUSE FIGHT
Leader Underwood Said to Have
Promised New Minority
Committee Places.

Progressive party members of the
House are making plans to nominate
Speaker and other officials when II
comes to the reorganization of the
House, at the opening of the extra ses-
sion. They plan to have a minority
leader in this Congress. and, in short,
to take a stand as the representatives
cf full-fledged party.
In other words, there are soing to
be two minority parties in the House
this Congress. That much is settled.
Within the last few days, progressive
party members in the House have been
comforting with each other and with
Chairman Underwood of the Ways and
Means Committee, on the plans to be
followed by the Bull Moose members
In this Congress. Congressman like
Murdoch Of Kansas. Hinebaugh of Il
linoic. Bryan of Washington, and
Chandler of New York, all progressi ye
party men. have been in counsel with
each other and have talked matters
over with the Democratic leader.
Underwood Is Notified.
Leader Underwood has been told by
the progressive party men that they in
tend to organize as a minority party in
the House, that they purpose to
have no party relations with the Re-
pubIicans. that they represent over
100000 voters, and that they are en-
titled to representation on the cont
mittees as minority party representa-
tives.
Leader Underwood. In the last day
or two gave definite assurance to Con-
gressman Hinebaugh Of Illinois, speak
ing as Progressive party member, that
the Progressive party men would not
only be allowed representation on the
committees, but on some Of the import
ant committees. Mr.. Underwood has
given the Progresives in the House to
understand that II they will agree
among themselves on the men they want
Ways and Means Committee, and head
of the committee on committees, Will
seek to have them fairly placed.
Score In New Party.
In the new House, there are about
twenty Progressive party men. In some
quarters. IL was expected Mr.. Under
wood would turn them down and not
force them to treat with Minority Lead
er Mann in order to get on committees
But Mr.. Underwood saw that, from q
Democratic standpoint. this would be
unwise. Apparently, he Is proceeding on
the theory that the best way to help the
Democratic party is to build up the Pro
gressive party against the Republican
party. Furthermore, In view Of the

IN THE DAY OF THE KISS
England, About tho Seventeenth Cen
fury, Seems to Have Been 4
Pleasant Place to Live.

Kissing, which has been officially
prohibited at the railway station OF
Sarmen, in Switzerland, flourishcd
in England in the seventeenth Gen.
fury to such an extent that the for
cign visitor was bewildered by its
prevalence. Nicolaus de Bethlen,
who Travelled in England in 1868,
writes that ''my brother and l be-
havcd very rudely on one occasion,
being unaware that it was customary
in that country to kiss the corner of
the mouth of ladies, instead Of shak-
ing hands, as We do in Hungary. We
were invited to dine at the house of
gentleman of high rank, and found
his wife and three daughters Zone Of
them marricd) ready to receive us.
We kissed the girls, but not the mar
ried ladies, and thereby greatly Of
Tended the latter. Duval apollo
gized for our blundcr, and told us
that when saluting we must always
kiss the senior lady first and leave
the girls to the last"
The learned and scdatc Erasmus,
In 1409, wrote o Latin letter from
England to his friend Fausto An
frolini advising him to come here at
once, for, he remarks: "Hcre are
girls with angels faces who will re-
ccive you with kisses. They come to
visit you, kisses again. Should they
meet yon anywhere, kisses in abnn-
dance, in fine, wherever you move,
there is nothing but kisses"
In 1406 a Bohemian noblcman
named leo von Rozmital visited
England, aud in the journal OF
His Travel" published 1872, he
noted: at is the custom there that
on the arrival of q distinguished
stranger from foreign parts the
hostess with all her family goes out
to meet him, and the guests are re-
quircd TO kiss them all, and this
among the English was the same as
shaking hands among other ma
tions."

HOW TURNER HAD HIS way
Artist Was Great Enough to Give
Preference to Picture That q
Rival Had Painted.

The late J. NJ. W. Turner, one of
England's most famous artists.
served for some time on the hang
ing committee Of the Royal academy,
and one day when he strobe into the
picture rooms he was struck by a.
picture sent in by an unknown pro-,
vincial artist of the name of Bird.
Turner took it into his hands and
examined it this way and that. "a
fine work." he exclaimed; ut must
he hung up and exhibited"
impossible" responded the 9TH
or members Of the committee; "the.
walls are full and the arrangements,
cannot be disturbed"
"A fine work." repeated Turner.
ut must be hung up and exhibited. ~
And finding his colleagues to he as,
obstinate as himself, he hitchcdi
down one of his own pictures and
hung up Birds in its place.-Na-
tional Magazine.

THE LAUNDERING LEGION.

The LAUNDERING Legion" is in
all probability laundering myth.
According to the legend the story is
as follows: About tina year ia a
Roman legion, in which there were
some Christians, were hard. pressed
by the savage Marcomanne, and as
they were about to be overpowered
and cut to pieces the Christians be-
gan to pray, when there 'imnaedi-
ately began to play upon the enemy
a terrific storm Of thunder and
lightning, which put them to fight
and saved the day. The tale is but
one of many like it that grew up
out Of the ignorance of the time, as
the fungus grows out Of the rotten
wood.

AND THE. FRIENDSHIP ENDED
Sarcastic Inscription on Photograph
Surely Settled All Question Of
Reconciliation.

If the name of the victim of this
story were published it would Gre
ate a sensation from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, not to say from the great
lakes to the Rio Grande. In short,
if the name were known, the gentle
man in question would have several
duck fits and the remainder of the
population of the United States
would leap madly into laughing hys-
terics. However, the victim is a
man high in national politics and
widely known in the staring public
eye. He had befriended the hero
of this narrative and had bound him
to him with hoops of steel. An ex-
igency Of politics required signal
service from the lesser light, and the
great man sent for the other and
said to him:
81 am your friend. I have made
you what you are. For my sake, 60
forth into the countryside and do
thus and So"
The lesser light, having consulted
his own interests and the opposite
faction in the party, journeyed forth
all right enough, but what he pulled
off in the aforementioned country
side was in direct contradiction tc
his instructions. When he returned
to the place from which he had
started he called at the offices of hi
powerful friend, but was received
by a subordinate, who said:
"My boss thinks that you have
treated him very badly in view Of all
his past friendship for you, and bt
will not receive you. Furthermore
he wishes you to send back to him
the autographed photograph which
he gave YOU"
The man, thus rebuked, hurled
himself into. taxicab, dashed into
his humble dwelling, seized large
stub pen, wrote an inscription across
the picture and sent the photograph
back to its giver. The inscription
read thus:
Received without solicitation
returned without regret. "-Popu
