was not always on the same day in
all the states. l think once, there
were three different Thursdays OF
November observed for that feast in
as many different states; and often
one state would observe the third
Thursday and another the fourth. |
| think Massachusetts,, in which state
the Day originated. never observed
any but the fourth Thursday except
once. If memory serves me rightly
| that state once took the third Thurs
| day because it was the anniversary
Of the Pilgrams entering Province
town harbor, Nov 20, month before
they settled at Plymouth.
During the Civil War Pres. Lincoln
several times called for public nat
ional Thanksgiving Day, which was
not marked as feast-day; simply a
day to gather in the churches and re-
turn thanks for victories by our
he issued a proclamation for such a
national Thanksgiving as would be
observed in New England; and ap-
pointed it on the same day when it
would be observed in those states.
He repeated this in 1864, and after his
death a delegation waited on Pres.
Johnson and reminded him of what
Pres Lincoln had done the two pre-
vious years and asked him to follow
the custom; but Andrew Johnson was
a contrary character, and some
thought he would not follow the New
England custom, as few of the people
in that section supported his policy"
And so he appointed the first Thurs
day of December; then some of the
Governors amended their already issu-
ed proclamations and called for state
observance on the same day. but Mas
sachusetts observed the last Thurs
day of November while Connecticut
changed to the first Thursday of Dec
ember. But in following years Pres.
Johnson appointed the national feast
on the fourth Thursday of November,
which has come to be recognized as
the set time for it. AS the 10Th of
this month was the 5Oth anniversary
of the delivery of Pres. Ljncoln's adj
dress at the dedication of the Gettys-
burg soldiers cemetery, there were
some who asked Pres. Wilson to
select that day for the national thanks
ing day but he fought it best not to do
so, and l think wisely.
The day as observed in New Eng
land had character all its own.
For one thing it was considered the
right time for the Ministers to preach
on political affairs, and there were
some notable sermons so delivered,
that directed public opinion; and many
did not affect it. As New England
was mostly of the national Federal
Party at the opening of the Nineteenth
century, many were the burning SER
mons directed against the Democratic
Jefferson. And once during that TIME
it is recorded that Massachusetts, got
a Governor of, Jefferson's political
faith. 1t was the custom for the Min
listers to read the Governors Thanks
giving Day Proclamation from the
pulpit, and l can remember how i'm
pressive it was to see the great printed

HoYNE oUiZZES MYSTERIOUS
PRISONER AT WAUKEGAN

PKISONER A WAUNEGHN
A mysterious prisoner" was ques-
toned for hours at Waukegan by
States Attorney Maclay HOyne.
HOyne refuses to give any informa-
ton about the prisoner or the case
in connection with which he was ar
rested.
1t is rumOred, however, that the
man is Frank Ryan, the far-famed
chief of the far-famed ''claiTvoyant
trust, which Hoyne discovered some
time ago.
It is said that Ryan was arrested
in Pennsylvania and taken directly
to Waukegan where he was question
ed by Hoyne. Hoyne has been stay
ing at his fathers country home at
Waukegan for some time. After the
gTilling by Hoyne, Ryan was brought
to the county Jail and is now lodged
there.
Hoyne said today that it would
spoil all his plans" if the name of
the prisoner were given out. He ad-
mitted that the man was under arrest
in connection with an important case.
Ryan was indicted along with
James Ryan, his twin brother, Viii
liam H. Stone and David K. Ross May
1 last. Police all over the country
have been searching for him since.
The Ryans and their accOmplices
were indicted in connection with the
swindling of Mrs. Hope L. McEldOw-
ney Of Lacrosse, Wis, out of $15,-
500. Further testimony before the
grand jury in connection with the
case led to the indictment of Barney
Bertsche, a politician, as accomplice
Of the Ryans.
Attorney Benedict ]. Short, coun-
sci for Bertsche, went to Pittsburgh
on a mysterious trip three days ago.
Attorney Charles E. Erbstein said to-
day that his information was that
Ryan was arrested in Pennsylvania
two or three days ago.

THE JAN DE LATOUR CASE
The inquest into the death of Jan
de Latour, titled Austrian, will be re-
opened Friday. De Latour's widow,
Wanda, is at present held for the
Staying in $4,000 bonds.
Meantime the police are siding
with the defense in the case. Police
Lieut.. Duffy said today that he did
not believe that there was sufficient
evidence against the women for in
dictment. He said his detectives had
gathered additional information with
in the last few days going to show
de LatOUr had committed suicide.
Attorney Edward ]. Prebis, repre-
senting the widow, says he is certain
from the quantity of arsenic found in
de Latour's body by the cOrOner's
chemist that the Austrian nObleman
must have ended his own life.
"No quantity of arsenic such as DIR.
McNally says he found in the body
could have been given to any man Sc
cretly," said Prebis.
Attorney Max Kaczmarek of the
Polish National Alliance, however, is
satisfied of the guilt of the widow
and will press the case against her.

belief that even though Huerta may
talk boldly now. he will look at things
in a different light when President VIII
sons proposals have been presented
through Mr.. Lind.
It Is also suspected that Huerta may
be playing to the gallery. and seeking
to solidify his support In Mexico by
adopting a defiant attitude toward Mr..
Lind. For this reason there is ten
dency in administration circles to be-
iieve that the statement Issued last
night never was intended TO reach this
government officially. The state de-
partment lie not making any inquiries
to ascertain If such a statement ac-
tually was issued or not
Exposed TO AMront.
On the other hand there arc many
officials here who believe that In send
ing Mr.. Lind to Mexico without ere
dentials or any official status in the
eye of the Mexican government. the
president has exposed the United States
and Mr.. Lind to serious anront.
1t was even suggested there may be
some cause for apprehension for Mr..
Lind's personal safety in Vera Cruz
and Mexico city. Insults to Mr.. Lind
would. II is expected. supply the spark
to ignite popular feeling in the United
States and bring general demand for
drastic action which would maintain

THE trouble with the Cummins-

was that the principals were all can

everybody felt that they were there to

conceived a profound distrust OF that

things worse.
Now our plan Is to invite Pro-

of a joint committee consisting of Ave
members OF the senate and five mem

draft a proper bill for taxation.
My resolution will also provide that
the members of this joint committee
shall be excused from all other COM

report. 1t is hardly probable that the
committee would finish its report in
time for the legislature to give proper

That there will be an extra session
