Saturday.

Mr.. Stewards bill against tipping
passed second reading Saturday In
the House providing that IL shall be
misdeameanor punishable by $50
fine and 80 days imprisonment, at the
discretion OF the court. for any per-
son to be guilty of either giving or
receiving a tip or for an employer to
be party TO any tipping. through
agreement that employees shall be
permitted to receive tips.
Some adverse sentiment was mani
tested along with levity over the
measure and its scope. but Mr. Stew
art insisted that the situation in this
State is really very serious. That IL
has come to pass that five and ten
cent tips are regarded as insulting by
the average waiter and twenty-five
and fifty cents are minimum tips that
win favor. A waiter had recently
thrown him back a Ave cent tip with
distinct manifestation OF indignation.
One Man Clogs the Legislative
Wheels.
Among bills passed final reading
were: To consolidate Winston and
Salem; authorize the construction of
Watauga Railroad through watauga
and Ashe counties az part OF the
Carolina Virginia Railroad.
Just before adjournment Saturday
the House found itself confronted
with the condition that there being
no private or local public bills on the
calendar. there was nothing that
could be done further Saturday or
Monday, owing to a motion by Jus
tice, OF Guilford, adopted that no
public bills be considered during his
absence Saturday and Monday Men,
bers OF the House insisted that they
had not intended TO vote any such mo-
tion Friday, their understanding be-
Ing that merely none OF the bills in
troduced by Justice or In which he
was specially interested should be
considered.
NJ. Doughton declared that IL
would be unprecedented for public
business of the Legislature TO stop
for two days because of the absence
OF particular member. The House
then reconsidered the Justice motion

Worry About the Pie Counter.

They have for months been very
much exercised and annoyed at the
position that he might take on the
distribution of Federal patronage.
They have been so much exercised
about this matter that they have act
ually appointed an Official Commit
tee known as the Committee on Pat
ronage," the chief purpose behind
this movement was to try to get Pres
ident-elect Wilson to agree to rescind
the civil service orders of his prede-
cessors, which took more than 10000
appointments from the public pie
counter and placed them under the
protection of the civil service.

A Million Republican Votes for Will
son.

This attitude taken by Governor
Wilson during the campaign brought
to his support, some, if not al, the
powerful monopoly interests in the
country. 1t is we'll known in every
community that a large number of
the monopoly and standpat Republi-
cans, who were really for Taft's re-
election, but who, realizing he could
not be reelected, voted for Wilson.
Indeed only a few days ago, in a
speech in New York, in trying to ex-
plain the small vote which he re-
ceived, President Taft stated that
over million Republicans who were
for him and the standpat Republican
policy had voted for Wilson, in order
to defeat Roosevelt. 1t is known, that
orders went from the Taft headquar-

The c. & N. w. Ry. linz
proving Shops Here

Superior Neb., Daily News,
Dec. q, 1913. The Northwest
ern railway have ordered a lot
of tools and machinery shipped
to Superior. A car load Of new
machinery arrived last evening
and another car came in just q
few days ago. These tools are
for the repair of locomotive en-
gines which means that this
work, which has been done a
Missouri Valley, Iowa, hereto
fore, will be done in Superior
in the future, at least the work
for the Nebraska lines.
Did you ever stop to think
what the Northwestern road
means to Superior? Do you
know that they employ about
% men right now, at the round
house, yards, freight and pass
enger depots, besides the Sec
ton mer? One passenger crew,
composed of conductor, brake
man, engineer, fireman, postal
clerks, baggagemen, etc, all
live at Superior. The payroll
of the Northwestern at Superior
will run above $4,000 each
month.
Right now arrangements ar
being mad !, whereby two more
freight crews will have to make
Superior their homes and these
families will move here shortly.
It is hard to estimate how
many men will be employed in
the new shops here, but it will
probably take several experien.
ced men and several helpers.

IN Her BEST CLOTHES
BY JANE WATHY.

"Auntie! Auntie! Come back and let
me kiss my booful auntie," pleaded
Angelica, hanging over the balustrade
ct the top of the stairs.
Miss Creston, touched by this un-
wonted display of affection on the part
Of her small niece, ran back up the
stairs to receive the embrace of two
small bare arms.
Nov, can l give little weeny
stroke to my booful auntie's booful
plume?" asked Angelica in saccharine
tones.
"Well, if you'll touch 1t very gently"
consented auntie, with misgivings, but
fearful of chilling her young relatives
melting mood. There, there, dear,
that will d." as she felt none too
light touch on the top Of her hat and
her mind was invaded by visions Of
disaster to her cherished plume.

Black Satin Slipper.

Whether or not the black satin
house slipper with the fiat heel and
square toe will take the place of the
patent leather one for the day hours,
is not easy to prophesy, 1t is quite
safe to take the verdict Of the Ameri-
can shoemakers, for we have the best
shoes and the best shod feet IL the
world.

Creston turned away and ran down the
stairs to her waiting escort.
Young Coleman regarded her with
the undisguised, if somewhat quizzical
admiration which is the accepted mas
culine attitude toward the entirely up
to-date woman in her best clothes.
I'm afraid that we'll have to hurry
little" he said. Angelica delayed
the game somewhat"
"Yes, know it, said Miss Creston,
but the poor child is SO perfectly imp.
ish that we always try to encourage
anything like softness in her"
Miss Creston was aware of creating
mild sensation when they boarded
the crowded elevated train, popular in
terest appearing to center In her hat.
1T certainly is the most becoming
hat I have had for long time," she
thought, complacently sinking with a
gracious bow into the seat which po.
lite young man yielded to her. And
the plume is beauty, II 1t did cost q
small fortune.
Most of the people were in their
seats when Miss Creston and her es-
cort arrived at the theater A some
what flustered young usher seized
their checks, bounded along the aisle
before them and slammed down two
seats.
They had just settled themselves
comfortably and Miss Creston was
raising her hands to remove her hat
when the usher reappeared, followed
by another couple.
kin l see your checks, please?" the
clustered usher asked
Young Coleman fumbled through his
pockets and at length was able to ex-
hibit the checks.
"They steered you down the wrong
AISLE" the usher informed them cheer
fully. Your seats are over on the
other side"
Amid smiling apologies on both sides
they rose and yielded their places to
the other couple, then traversed the
long aisle to the back OF the house,
crossed over and proceeded down tho
opposite side.
Il am so glad, thought Miss Creston,
as they made their conspicuous prog
ress through the house, chat my
clothes are all right-espccially my
hat. People always notice hats so"
When young Coleman and the usher
had carefully verified the location of
their places Miss CrestOn seated her
self and raised her hands to remove
her hat.
She extracted four hatpins and boz
gan to tumble for the fifth.
"Why-where's my other hatpin?"
she murmured, cropping about the
crown on her hat with her fingers.
"Well, what"
Her hand encountered an unfamiliar
object at one side of the crown,
clammy, yielding something which
caused her to give last frantic, and
this time successful, clutch at tho
missing hatpin.
Angelica! WHAT has that child been
doing to my hat?" was the thought
that flashed through her mind as she
snatched off the headgear and laid It
upon her lap.
Skillfully entangled in the filigree
work of her hatpin was one medium
sized, slightly damp bath sponge.
"Oh!" Miss Creston turned to her
escort with fire In her eye. why
didn't you tell me it was there, instead
Of letting me parade all over creation
with that thing In my hat?" she de-
manded.
The young man turned an injured
countenance upon her. Don't you
suppose I would have told you II l
hadn't thought it belonged there?" he
asked. 81 give you my word Of honor

that l supposed It was some new kind
of pompon, or chou chou. or whatever
you girls call them. Anyway" as the
lights were lowered and the hum Of
voices about them died down. you'd
look prettier In hat trimmed all over
with bath sponges than any other
woman would with a bird Of paradise
on hers!"

The smile on living lips that rests
Means naught of cheer to me
The means that rise from shattered
