What Spotty the Turtle Found.
BY Thornton w. Burgess.

Spotty the Turtle stared and stared and

and yet-and yet-well, if anybody else
has seen what he was looking at and had
told him about 1t he wouldn't have be-

lieved it because-why because il didn't
seem as if it could be really and truly so.
He wondered If the sun shining in his
eyes made him think he saw more than
he really did see, SO he carefully changed
his position. 1t made no difference. Then
Spotty was sure that what he saw was
real and that he had found the trouble in
the Laughing Brook. which had caused
il to stop laughing and the Smiling Pool
to stop smiling.
Spotty the Turtle was feeling pretty
good. In fact, Spotty was feeling very
good, indeed, because he had been the
first to find out what was the matter
with the Laughing Brook. At least. he
thought that he was the first. and he
was of the little people who live in the
Smiling Pool. Only or Mistah Buzzard
had been before him. and he didn',

TO Decide Upon Action
I'm Regard to Taft Nominations.

Republican Senators agreed yesterday
to call a conference TO meet Tuesday
morning to determine what action shall
be taken by them to meet the Demo
cratic opposition in the Senate to con
firming President Tafts nominations.
The Senate is practically in a dead
lock over the matter. The Democra is,
after holding four conferences. have
resoluteiy set themselves against con-
firming any nominations except army,
navy, and diplomatic.
The Republicans a few days ago Sc
riously considered the advisability OF
trying TO force a continuous executive
session unless the Democrats yielded.
But the first time effort was made
by the Republicans to hold the Senate
the Democrats broke quorum by leav-
ing the chamber, and it was impossible
to secure the presence OF enough Repub-
licans to make quorum and confirm
nominations.

vorsbly with an amendment increasing
the amount Of compensation from $500
to $4,000, the Senate bill providing for
the payment OF the last-named amount
to Miss Alice V. Houghton, the young
employe OF the Census Once. whose
scalp was torn from her head by whIrl-
ing machinery while at work in 1911.
A determined effort will be made from
several sources in the House to pass
the bill as amended at an early date
An effort will be made to obtain consid-
Grafton out of order by unanimous con-
sent. There Is a strong sentiment in
the House in favor OF dealing generously
with Miss Houghton. who not only IS
disfigured for life. but who may remain
an invalid as the result of her accident
