Washington, Dec. 13.-How the
United States would be governed un-
der a Mexicanized administrations:
how the appetites of n hungry Of
fce-seeker should be ~appeased; the
secret Of the perennial domination OF
Tammany, and thu best way to dis
nose of undesirable statesmen-were
some Of the questions which the Grid
iron Club undertook to answer in hu-
morous vein before a goodly company
Of distinguished guests tonight at its
annual December dinner.
Few Of the company escaped the
shafts of wit. President Wilson, Vice
President Marshall, Secretary Bryan
and leaders in Senate and House came
in for a share On the gridiron but it
was evident that no One enjoyed the
grilling more than the victims hem
selves.
Prospective candidates for presiden-
tial nomination surely must have been
discouraged Rt the troubles and un-
certainties ahead of them, when the
American government is conducted on
the Mexican plan, as disclosed in the
opening skit. An extra edition Of an
evening newspaper announced:

FRANK TAYLOR WINS

Willie Strong Failed To Recover Land After Appealing Case To Su-
 preme Court.

In the supreme court yesterday the case of Willie Strong against Frank B. Taylor, in which the appellant sought to recover a plantation of 12e acres of land from Taylor, was af- firmed. In the Jefferson chancery court Frank Taylor had been given a judgment in which he was declar- ed the legal owner of the land and Strong appealed the case. He was represented by Attorney A. T. White law and Colman and Can't represent ed MT. Taylor. The land is valued at from $2,o00 to $5,000

city last week is evidenced by nu- merous letters that are being receiv- ed at he presidents office from real estate men who failed to attend the first meeting and who wish to be ell. rolled as members. The executive committee has complied the bylaws adopted and these with a list of the members enrolled wifi be mailed out at once to each member and to others who may wish to ally themselves with the movement. The number of pros pectors now visiting Arkansas and ether southwestern states and who come without any clear idea of the country or with whom they will ne- gotlate when they arrive here empha- sizes the need of an intelligently di- rcoted working organization to look out for just this sort of business. Most of the prospectors are now coming from the middle west sta aes and thev are class who will greatly facilitate the building up of the country but they are men of some means and are able to make an investigation for themselves so thas it is useless to en- deaVor to deceive them in any way. With improved working conditions the number of prospectors can be great ly Increased and naturally the num- Der of actual settlers. Every section needs them and cne one which acts the faiest at all times will be the one which will fare the best.

NHEER1LY- chcerily - cheerily "a clear, rol- licking whistle from the elm, dropping over a roadway, along which speeds a steady pro- cession of automobiles. There he goes, a flashing streak of flame and black, and soon returns with a long strip of slender bark trail- ing behind his widespread tail. A site for the new nest has been se- lected in the same tree, where hangs last years pendent. domi- cile, and both birds are hard at work home-building. The lady of the house, in her demure dress of dull, yelloWish green, works steadily and quietly, while her resplendent lord, bedecked in orange and black, cannot re- strain his joy, pausing between billfuls of nesting material to voice his happiness in song.
 The Baltimore oriolc has been quick to realize the friendly yattitudc ofman, return ing year after year to the same .ocalitv. Nearly all parks oE the country contain pnc or more pairs, and because of the }sate location of the deep basket nest on 'yhe extreme end of pendulous branch where 1t cannot be despoiled by cat or 'squrrel, they rear their young safely. Though this is undoubtedly factor in the struggle for survival of the species. in many individual instances 1t would ynot be necessary; for the oriole is . ,bird of splendid courage.
