CHANNEL AT CHAM
PLAIN NARROWS
To Admit Boats of Draught Equal to
Those That Pass Through the

Washington, April IA delegation
from New York appeared before the
Senate committee on commerce yester-
day to urge that the Lake .Champlain
Narrows be improved by the federal
government through an appropriation to
be authorized in the rivers aid harbors
bill to deepen and widen the channel to
admit boats OF draught equal to those
that pass through the state barge canal.
The channel of the Narrows at pres

the gentleman from Georgia is concerned,

der me. Shoe fly, don't bodder me-
Quoting his last Democratic predeces-
sor against him, Clark told silent
House and packed galleries how Grover
Cleveland "bluntly and succinctly stated
the opinion of 90 per cent of American
people, when he declared that the
United States is practically sovereign
upon this continent, and it's fiat is law
upon subjects to which it confines its
interpretation
In spite of the speakers declaration
that there is no personal issue between
himself and the president and in spite
of his emphatic statement shat, with
most of those who have asserted that
am seeking to disrupt the party, the
wish is father TO the thought" there
are few in Washington who do not be-
lieve that this day marks real schism
in the Democratic party and that, after
what Clark said yesterday afternoon in
the face of certain victory for the re-
peal bill, before the House adjourned
for dinner last night the Democrats who
sided with Clark would never be able
to work in real harmony with the DEM
ocrats who side with Wilson Both sides
profess the kindliest feelings toward one
another, but kindly feelings viii not
count for much when each side accuses
the other of violation either of party
platform or national honor.

ATHLETES NEED GOOD WIND.
Wagner Says Basketball Helps Him
Keep in Condition.

The secret of his longevity on the dia-
mond has been let out to the youngsters
on the Pirate squad by Honus Wagner.
The German is now in his 4lst year and
is not thinking OF retiring yet How
have you managed to stay in baseball at
long as you have :" Lefty" Kantlehner
asked the German the other evening as
he was sitting among group of young
sters in the lobby of the hotel at Hot
Springs, Ark.
ANY player can last as long as |
have" Honus replied "All you got to do
is never allow yourself to get out of con-
dition. | am never out of condition.
These training trips never bother me
any. ] never get sore from training.
This is because / am always in condi-
ton. This is a mistake most players
make-they permit themselves to get
out OF condition during the winter ] do
not think a player should play baseball
all winter, but he should take plenty OF
exercise out In the fresh air-out in the
open When ] finish playing baseball

walking. Then play basketball. /
practiced little basketball almost every
day down home last winter.
"They say it is strenuous sport, and
you are liable to get injured. During the
years | have been playing basketball /

player being seriously injured playing
basketball. 1t is one of the best exer-
cises | know for developing your wind.
After all, getting your wind is what
counts most in all forms of athletics.
When You have your wind you can do
almost everything. l am never bothered
about my wind-whenever you have
your wind you are in good condition.
You hear lot about pitchers weaken
ing. They lose their wind, that's all"
Don't you ever get sore? Don't your
muscles get stiff in the spring." one of
the youngsters inquired "Sure they get
sore the first few days, but because your
muscles get sore does not mean that you
are out OF condition" Wagner replied
when you play basketball you use diff
ferent muscles of your body than you do
when you are playing baseball OF
course, when you start playing ball in
the spring again those muscles get bit
sore, but that wears off after the first
few days practice"

Administration Victory Pro-
nounced-Vote Was PAT to
161, or Majority of Sc
CLARK SPEECH CLIMAX
OF FREE TOLL DEBATE
Demonstration for Speaker
as He Finishes, But Dem
ocratic Party Is Split

Washington, April 1.-The House, aft
er one of the most spectacular legisla-
tive struggles in the history of the ma
ton, yesterday voted to repeal the pro-
vision of the Panama canal act, exempt
ing American vessels from the payment
of tolls.
The vote on the repeal bill was 247
to l6l, majority of Sc in support OF
the personal plea of the president.
The verdict came at the close of a
stirring day made memorable by a party
division which found Speaker Clark, Ma
iority Leader Underwood and other Dem
ocratic chieftains lined up in open OPP
position to the president.
To-day the bill goes to the Senate,
where the fight will be renewed with
all the vigor and determination that at
tended it in the House. On the final
vote. 900 Democrats in the House stood
by the president. Twenty-Five Republi-
cans and two progressives also voted to
sustain the president. Fifty-two DEM
ocrats followed Clark and Underwood to
defeat.
sNothing it seemed could stem the tide
of administration success. Speaker
Clark failed to forestall what he called
"the unquestionable degradation of the
nation" He did smooth over party diff
ferences with kindly words for his adj
versaries, praise for the president and
unqualified denial of any vaulting ambi-
ton on his own behalf.
The speaker was triumphant in defeat,
for when he closed, the entire assem-
blage rose and cheered.
In the Senate the bill will be referred
to committee, but how long it will be
there cannot be predicted. The commit
tee will have many proposals before it,
some of them resembling compromise.
A motion of the House minority was
made to recommit the repeal bill and
to repeal the exemption clause with the
declaration that the United States
should have complete sovereignty over
the canal This motion in the House
was defeated 232 to 176.
The scene in the House when Speaker
Clark yielded the gavel to Underwood
and strobe to the floor, was dramatic
in the extreme. The galleries were
packed and the corridors jammed with
disappointed hundreds. Interest was in
tense as Clark began.
When Clark finished, Representative
Adamson closed the debate. He devoted
himself largely to denunciation of the
toll exemption as economic policy.
Throughout his speech the House was
in great disorder. When Adamson con-
cluded the vote was taken while hush
swept the crowded floors. The admin
istration's strength made its appearance
at once and applause greeted the first
vote.
The New England delegation voted is
to 8 against the repeal Against the bill
was Congressman Greene and Plumley
of Vermont.

Message from Lima, Peru,
Says Iquitos Is
Alarmed
MY ONLY BE "FOLLOW
UP" TO FIALA MISHAP
Friends Feel Confident That
Colonel Is Not in
Danger

New York, April Ia telegram from
Buenos Ayres to the Evening Sun Says:
"a message from Lima, Peru, says
that alarm is felt for the safety of Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, according to adj
vices received from Iquitos."
The people of the foregoing message
caused much speculation as to whether
Col. Roosevelt was in some new danger
or whether the telegram was simply a
reflex OF the reports that came from
South America on March %, when the
division OF his expedition, led by An.
thony Fiala, met with mishap. Friends
of Col. Roosevelt here, who were told Of
the receipt Of the message, were of the
opinion that it was the result OF rumors
that had arisen over week ago.
lquitos, frem which, according to the
message, word was sent to Lima about
the alarm for the Colonel, is in the re-
mote northeastern arm of Peru and is
about 500 miles as the crow flies from
Lima, the capital. Iquitos is about 900
miles from Manaos, to which place Col
Roosevelt was making his way when last
heard from
After the receipt OF the messages from
South America, which told OF the acct
dent to the Fiala section of the expedi-
ton Secretary Sherwood OF the Ameri-
can Museum of Natural History reeeiv-
ed the following message from United
States Consul Pickerell at Para, Brazil;
Roosevelt all right. Arriving at
Manaos by way OF Tapagio river"
There was doubt as to whether the
party arriving at Manaos" was that of
the colonel or the one led by E'iala. Mr..
Sherwood was of the opinion that it re-
ferred to the Fiala party because Col.
Roosevelt was believed to be exploring
the Dudi Duyida river River of Doubt
From the plans of Col Roosevelt and
the nature OF the country he intended
to pierce it was said by his friends that
they would not worry about him If
they did not hear from him in a month.
The country through which he intended
to pass had never before been explored.
The expedition is now divided into
three sections, for besides the one led
by Fiala another section, led by Leo L.
Miller, naturalist of the museum here,
is undertaking descent of the Parana
river.
Lawrence Abbott of the Outlook
said yesterday that the fact that the
message came from Lima by way OF
Buenos Ayres was sufficient to set
aside any grave fears for the colonel
ANY message from or about Col
Roosevelt at this time" said MIR. Abb
bolt, must come over the Brazilian tel
egraph lines. Any mishap to him would
be first heard by the Brazilian govern
ment, whose agents are keeping in touch
as far as possible with his movements.
1t was three weeks ago since we heard
directly from the Colonel and he was
then proceeding successfully"

A SURE WAY TO
END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp-At Once

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, common liquid
srvon from any drug store this is all
you will need, apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff viii be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve, and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
a ndsoft, and look and feel a hundred
times better.
If you value your hair, you should get
rid of dandruff at once, for nothing de-
stroys the hair so quickly. 1t not only
starves tn chair and makes il fal out,
starves the hair and makes il fall out,
but il makes it stringy, straggly, dull,
dry, brittle and lifeless, and everybody
notices it.-Advt.
