LID IS ON TIGHT
IN WASHINGTON
All Executive Offices Are Closed
on Sunday.
OLD TIMERS ARE AMAZED
President Wilson Orders All Messages
Except Those of First Import
ance Held Up UtiI
Today.

Washington, March 10--The lid was
on tight in Washington Sunday and to
the amazement Of the old timers not
an executive office of the departments
was open while at the White House
only two executive clerks were at
work and they we're there out of force
of habit.
Secretary Tumulty told everybody
connected with the administrative
work of the White House to "spend
Sunday at home" and that he intend
ed to do the same. Had a bomb eX-
pIoded thereabouts, it would not have
caused more CONSERVATION.
Wilson Stops important Message.
President Wilson sent word over to
the executive offices that unless mes
sages of the first Importance came in
he did not want to see them until
today Secretary of State Bryan
passed the same specific word along
in his department and telegraph
operator held down the foreign office
of the government
The edict has gone forth that the
Wilson-Marshall administration shall
be a white ribbon" affair with no
wines or liquors served at any enter
tainment.
Wine Is Tabooed.
Not only do the president and Mrs.
Wilson and their daughters taboo the
sparkling cup, but also do the vice
president and Mrs. Marshall, the sec
rotary of state and Mrs. Bryan and
nearly all the cabinet
This is one of the most important
changes in the social regime in Wash
ington under the new administration
and it is reckoned by those that will
know that it will save to society hun
reds of thousands of dollars annually
spent in that one luxury by those who
entertain frequently
When the secretary of state and
Mrs Bryan had the British ambassa-
dor to lunch with them a few days
ago and was asked what wines would
be served, Mrs. Bryan said that Meth
er she nor the secretary drank wines.
Puts Quetus on Drinking.
The move of the president and Mrs
Wilson, the vice-president and Mrs
Marshall. the secretary of state and
Mrs. Bryan and others, it is said, will
put a quietus on drinking where they
are to be entertained.
Mrs. Champ Clark took the initia
tive in the congressional set after Mr.
Clark became speaker and had only
cooling grape juices, punches and
lemonade served where others gave
stronger refreshments 1t was not 6
particular change for Mrs Clark as
she had never served wines and
liquors but the fact was not so evi
dent until after her visitors included
the whole of official Washington.

CHARGE JAMES ]. HILL ERRS
Reclamation Service Officials in Wash
ington Defend Their Works as
Not ExtraVagant.

Washington, March 10.-Reclama-
ton officials took issue with state
ments in which James J. Hill was
credited with saying in an address at
Charleston, S. c., that the manage
ment of reclamation service was
stupid" and that irrigation works in
the United States had cost twice as
much as they would in Canada They
declared Mr. Hill could not be in
formed on the Canadian works.
THE statements attributed to Mr..
Hill are eXtravagant and indefensi-
ble," said the officials.
Several congressional leaders are
preparing to introduce bills for repeal
of the Canadian reciprocity act at the
extra session.

Plants Need Nourishment.

A German investigator has discov-
cred that plants resist cold best when
they are given special nourishment to
keep them warm. For instance, to
feed a plant sugar stimulates it's pow
er of resisting low temperature, much
as like food acts upon animals, though
in less marked degree.

Evidences of a
Reunited Party
WORD FROM ALL COUNTIES IN
DISTRICT TELL THE SAME
STORY.
PROGRESSIVE PARTY STRENGTH
DECLINING AND WILL CUT
BUT LITTLE FIGURE.

CLARKsBURG, W. Va, Sept. 80.
George A. Laughlin, Progressive
party nominee for congress, on his
trip through this part of the district
last week acknowledged here that he
had met much Encouragement from
many of his former friends. He
stated that among those who had
biuntly spoken of their disapprovai
of his course was Judge John W.
Mason, of Fairmont, who told him
that while he had been his friend,
admirer and supporter in former
days, he now regarded him as a
traitor to the great Republican par
ity and true American principles.
Others equally as prominent talk
ed in a similar manner to Mr.. Laugh
lin. There is said to be but one man
of any prominence in Marion coun-
ity who remains with the Progressive
party, and as the days pass lis fol-
lowing is dwindling. In Harrison
county the fractional leaders have
lost their hold and Laughlin can
hope for but little in the county.
The situation is rapidly clearing in
Lewis county and the Republican
party is becoming reunited fast.

way.
The policeman whose hand caused
the double tragedy had been atten-
tive to the girl.
Acquaintance last night said that
recently the policeman had shown
signs of dependency and it was the
belief Of those who knew him and
Mamie Newcomb that the two had
decided to end life together.
Policeman Lennix reported to the
central police station and was MARI
ried.
The woman, who was "a years
old, lived in 2O1O Tatten street.
The tragedy occurred at II
o'clock Inst night. Policeman Phil
ip Kelly heard the two shots and
rushed to the head of the Marion
street steps leading from Second ave
nue. to Bluff street, where he CAME
upon the PROSTATE man and woman
lying in their blood.
Lennix had shot himself through

Instill Loyalty.

In the car, the other evening,
man with baby coy in his arms
amused people in the vicinity BY
striking at his child in feigned an
ger. The little child struck back
with some vehemence and spirit, and
what was begun in play by the ul-
thinking father, ultimately ended i'll
a howl of anger and a storm OF
tears. Naughty, bad papa!"
The child should not have been al
lowed to express himself thus in re-
gard to his father. 1t was the be"
ginning of criticism, and its frank
declaration should have no place in
the child's mind. Indeed, the whole
incident was one which forms the
worst possible example.
Children often enough attempt to
strike at the parents in bursts OF
petulance. 1t should never be toll
Grated for an instant. To have the
father set thee xample by playful
blows, expecting the child to retail
late and show an angry spirit, is
likely to result in the suicide Of dis
cipline, as far as parents are COIL
cerned, and of loyalty in the case OF
the child as he grows older.
This brings to me the subject OF
loyalty, that all too rare virtue In
human beings, which can be insttll-
ed into some of us in our cradles and
must be If we are to wear it, unless
we happen to be one of the FORUM
ate who are born. with loyal procltv-
tiles.
1t is surprising at what an early
age n child will commence to critt-
CHE and find fault, particularly the
tiny feminine creatures who so soon
grow into women, ready to smile af-
rably in your face and drag the
names of their intimate friends in
the mire for your benefit and do the
salrsame thing about you the mo-
meht your back is turned.
Children should not be allowed to
find fault with their parents or dis
pute their commands. Parents
should guard their conduct and not
lay themselves liable to criticism
which children are often warranted
in making, and of which they arc
quick to take advantage. A plea
made in. quietness by a child to be
informed as to reason and object of
certain parental DEGREES is permits
sable and even advisable.
Never encourage child in the
unkihd criticism-of a playmate or.
teacher. Bid him look at his own
faiiings. Compare one OF his with
one he is discussing in someone else
and show him that we are all prone

WHEN COMPANY COMES.

If there's one thing above all oth-
ers that makes a woman feel desper-
ate it is to have company drop in I'M
cxpectedly to spend the day, and to
know that her table cloth is yellow
from the last washing, and the nap
,kins worn in holes and dingy look
ing. II she had used Easy Task laun-
dry soap her table linen would have
been spotlessly white and she would
be proud of it. Easy Task soap is the
enemy of dirt and the friend of fab
RIGS of all kinds. Try it next Mon
day and you'll rename washday to

inch material and IL yards of 81 inch
all-over lace.
The possibilities of plated chiffon,
silk duvetyn and plain charmeuse are
shown in No. 1908. These new all silk
duvetyns are exactly suited to the
quaint peasant coates which are a
part Of so many OF the more dressy
gowns. AS yellow is such favorlte,
an effective suggestion for this design
is to have the coatee of yellow silk du-
vetyn with tunic of the palest lemon
chiffon over cream colored charmeuse.
Size Sc will require 81 yards of 40

material for the coatee and yards Of
