Turn To Search For In.
sIdlous Lobby"

Washington, June 6.--An unex.
pected turn was given the senate's
lobby investigation late today when
Senator Townsend Of Michigan, Re.
publican, declared on the stand that
the influence welded by President
Wilson and that the Democratic Sec
ret caucus upon the making Of the
tariff bill constituted tho nearest
approach to undue influence upon
members Of congress" that the in.
vestigating committee would be able
to find.
Senator Townsend criticised the
committee for not having asked mem
bers Of the senate whether the presi.
dent had sought to influence them
and declared that even though the
president had not intended It. his
recent denunciation Of Hobbies" work
ing In support Of changes in the tariff
would force certain senators to vote
against amendments they knew to be
just.

THE SPIDERS COMPLAINT

was coming up the sidewalk
Just little while ago,
When l met a little spider
With a face plum full OF woe;
And his little nose was flattened,
And one arm was in sling,
His eye was blue and purple
And he cried like everything.
Good morning, Mr.. Spider"
I said, in tones polite.
But the little spider only glared
At me with all his might.
Hello! Miss Band Of Mercy"
The little spider spoke,
my eye is smashed, and SOS my nose
And my right arm is broke!
Them plaguy boysl They did 1t,
And I would like to see
The good your Band of Mercy does
A little chap like me.
81 was going for the doctor,
Because my dad is sick.
When long there came a great big
boy
And punched me with a stick.
He punched and punched and punch.
ed until 47,f ...'r
He almost punched me through. )"
And then the spider cried and cried
Until Just cried too.
And then" went on the spider
And wiped his tiny eye,
"He mashed me with his clumsy foot
Until I thought I'd die!"
and now then" he continued
In accents sad and slow,
What does your Band OF Mercy do!
THAT'S what I want to knbw!"
I was touched with deep emotion
At the little spiders tale,
And I promised to repeat 1t
To the children, without fail.
Now you see I've kept my promise
And I'm pretty sure you all
WIN protect the little spiders,
II they are extremely small.
