strengthened by the passage or the
Webb bill in the House Saturday, friends
Of the Kenyon bill to prevent shipment Of
liquor into "dry states were prepared
for a sharp fight when the Senate today
began its final consideration. The Webb
bill is for the same purpose.
The Kenyon bill was taken UP under an
agreement for q final vote at 3 pm to-
day. In form the measure is similar to
the Webb bill, but the Kenyon bill in
cludes one section to give state officials
control over liquor shipments as soon as
they come within the state borders. and
before they are delivered to the con-
signees.
Gets His Names Printed.
The first skirnish of the day was pre-
cpitated when Senator Ashurst of Ari-
zona presented two petitions signed by
citizens OF his state, favoring the passage
of the Kenyon bill. He requested that
the petitions together with the names be
printed in the record.
Senator Gallinger objected to filing the
record with names Of citizens.
That only accentuateS the idea that
there are but two rules in this Senate,
one for one senator and one for the
other replied Senator Ashurst. He de-
clared that If he couldn't have the names
printed he would not have the petition
go in the Record
Senator Root replied that there was no
discrimination among senators.
/ After the matter was debated bv
several senators, during which it was
pointed out that only on special occa-
siOnS were names printed In the Rec

Sutherland objected.
II cannot vote for this bill, because it

PomereEe Of Ohio. in the first speech on
the bill. This is not a question of the
prohibition of the liquor traffic by Con-
gress or a question Of the regu alton of
the liquor traffic question by Congress.
Senator Pomerene said the bill as now
framed would illegally attempt to dele

Another mystery OF the deep. practically

violent gale.
The Marie Celeste was found at sea
with her captains papers on the cabin

discovery. But nothing ever was heard
Of her skipper or crew.
The Roumanian sighted the Renittcnt

ATTORNEY rs
THE DIVORCE PROCTOR
II Your Boat Doesn't Sail Straight
Tell Mr.. Hurd.

The last legislature fixed up a
nice mess for Arthur Hurd. He is
the official "butter in" on all divorce
cases filed in the county and 1t Is
his business to make investigations
whenever the little craft on the mat
rimonial sea runs into breakers and
has it's fervent flames extinguished
in the angry waves. Divorce cases
as rule are not the most pleasant
things on the planet and when a fell
low gets to dabbling into both sides
of the affair he is liable to agree
with Mr.. Sherman that war Is hell"
whether 1t is between nations or
members Of household. Anyhow
Mr.. Hurd is not able to work up any
great amount Of enthusiasm over the
prospects. The county attorney after
making his Investigations in the
cases reports his findings to the
court when the cases are called for
trial. When the law becomes ef-
fectave it will require sixty Hays
after the petition is filed before the
decree can be granted.
Also under the provisions Of the
new law, it will cost $40 more to
secure a separation. The district
clerk will collect the fee and turn
it over to the county treasurer who
will put it in the school fund. 1t'i
an i'll wind that blows no one any

One of the business men of this
city who came here in the early days
and has stayed with the town is cell
ebrating his thirty-fourth anniyer-
sary of his business start in Abilene
w. L. Cooley, the jeweler. A ros-
ter of Abilene business firms with
out the name of w. L. Cooley would
seem unnatural and would miss one
of the firms that has always had
faith in the city's progress. Thirty
four years takes us back to 1879 and
includes all the varying fortunes OF
the fateful nineties when 1t took a
good business head to keep going.
Mr.. Cooley kept going because he
had secured the confidence OF a pat
ronage that covered the county and
brought trade here from neighbor-
ing towns. An expert optician, q
jeweler who understands his busi-
muDs eand an aetiye factor IN ths

town needed, hexwon the friendship

STATEMENT FOR THE PUBLIC
Advises Patients Not TO Come to See
DIR. Friedman Until Demon
STATIONS Have Been
Completed.

washington, March 22.-The pub
lie health service, through Surgeon
General Blue, issued its first state
ment today relative to the govern
ment investigation of DR.. F. f.
Friedmann's reputed tuberculosis
cure. The statement, which en-
phasizes the governments policy TO
proceed cautiously, is as follows:
ION March the secretary OF the
treasury, on the recommendation OF
it's surgeon general of the public
health service, caused board OF
medical officers to be detailed TO
make a thorough investigation OF
DR.. Friedmann's alleged cure Tor
tuberculosis.
"These officers proceeded imme-
diately to New York and arranged
with DR.. Friedman for demonstra-
lions of his remedy upon persons
suffering from tuberculosis. These
demonstrations are being carried on
IN certain New York hospitals
through the courtesy Of their re-
spectiye authorities, and will be con-
tinued until sufficient information
has been obtained for the forming
of an opinion as to the merits Of
the treatment.
"Dr. Friedman has submitted tc
the board a culture Of the bacteris
which he states are used In ma
method Of treatment. In addition
| to the observations Of persons undel
{ treatment by DR.. Friedman, ths
beard of officers will make expert
ments to ascertain whether the cul
ture is as DR.. Friedman claims
harmless to warm blooded animals
Considerable time will necessar
lily be required to carry out thes'
Investigations, the work will be car
ried out as rapidly as possible.
''In the meantime the public 1
informed of the individuality in tn
great majority Of cases, of trsvelinI
long distances in the hope of roceiV
ing treatment, as those selected 10
demonstration purposes constitut
only a small proportion OF app!i
csnts."
