Certain mercury compounds can be
made into red or yellow merely by
heating them. When analysed they

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
When Senator Ingalls, Met His Match at Repartee

his large and well-molded head was
deep set between his shoulders. His
voice was singularly penetrating,
sharp. and vibrant, but his enuncia-
ton was distinct, even when he
spoke in low tones. Early in Mr.
|Ingallss career as United States
senator he ventured to discharge an
arrow at Senator Vest. He alluded TO
the fact that the distinguished Mis-
sourian had been senator under
two governments.
Every one in the Senate knew what
the allusion meant. While still
Young man Mr.. Vest had been elect
ed as a representative of the state
of Missouri to the Confederate SEN
ate. He served aeceptably to the
Confederacy while a member OF its
Senate. After the war was ended
Senator Vest returned to MISSOURI
and speedily gained a reputation as
a lawyer and orator, which distin-
guished him as one of the leading cit
liens of the State. After Missouri
had been captured from the Repuo-
lican administration by the Democ--
racy, Mr.. Vest was elected q united
States Senator and was not long a
member of that body before the Sem
ate and the country knew why Mis-
souri, esteemed him so highly.
Senator lngalls's shaft was not an
unkindly one. nor did Senator Vest
take it in that way. He felt, how
ever, that it was up to him to DEM
onstrate that he had the capacity to
meet and turn away shaft of that
kind. He instantly replied to Sen
ator ingalls,, saying:
Eyes, Mr.. President, and my Gre
tientials were never questioned by
either government That was q re-
turn shot which went home, and Sen
ator Ingalls, made no attempt to re-
ply. The reference was to the fact
that there had been some question
about the legality of Senator Ingalls,
election. and for a time 1t seemed
likely that this might cost the SEN
ator his seat. The charges, however,
were set aside. 1t was to this cir
misunderstanding recalled by SEN
ator Vest-that he referred when re-
plying to Senator 1ngalls's shot.
Never again did the two senators at
tempt to measure mental swords
against each other.

THE HOME OF JEFFERSON.

Monticello is TO be sold by its owner, Congress
man Jefferson Levy, of New York, to be acquired
by the nation. As Mount Vernon is maintained and
cherished national shrine, so will be the famous
Virginia home of Thomas Jefferson the greatest OF
the contemporaries of Washington and next to him
in national fame.
1t was in Monticello that Jefferson lived his re-
tired and philosophic life, keeping his eye the
affairs the young republic he helped found after
he had written the immortal Declaration of Inde-
pendence 1t was from Monticello that he issued
those solemn warnings to his countrymen to beware
the nrigues of politics that would establish class
monarchical government in this country.

rule-of the rule by democracy. profound stu
history he absorbed all its lessons He knew
the perils of the people from monarchy and milf

the American people from the that we now

In the dreadful in Europe and the causes
that produced it mankind witness the results of
system of government that is above the people and
independent of their will In the spectacle of our
own country, free from the commissions of the war
and immune from it's caamities, mankind can see the
blessings that popular the principles
of which Thomas Jefferson ably expounded and
SO earnestly upheld Today every American can turn
to Thomas Jefferson with increased love and rev.
erence will rejoice that at last his quiet retreat
in Virginia is to be erected into a shrine for the ma

Red Cross Appreciation

To the Editor OF the Evening Star;
Dear Sir: In behalf of the Ameri-
can Red Cross, it is a privilege to as
sure you of our sincere appreciation
of the generous editorial support you
have given the organization in it's eff
forts to ameliorate the suffering of
sick and wounded soldiers and desti-
tute women, children and old men in
the paths of the European armies.
We are especially grateful for your
editorial of September &c.
Never in the history of the Red
Cross has there been so tremendous
a demand upon it's resources, and,
but for the highly valued assistance
and cooperation of the American
press, the American branch could not
be nearly so successful, as it will be,
on its mission of mercy in the war
ridden countries. The publication of
our statements and the editorial back
ing given have helped wonderfully.

THE MODERN WAYS OF WARFARE.

War, as it is conducted in these days, dispenses
with the idea of romance and chivary. Invention has
transformed war into matter OF killing men by
machinery and explosives. There is little room for
individual valor. Men fight and are killed in masses
They are swept into battle by the momentum OF the
mass The individual counts for nothing
In the Middle Ages. when artillery was unknown
and the sword and pike were the hand weapons, the
picturesoue figure of knight incased in armor ap-
pealed to the romantic fancy. The literature of
that period fills library shelves today and is read with
out horror by the most timid of people How shall
posterty read literature of the world war of 914g
How can romance be carved out of its awful events?
Is not this war something for mankind to forget after
il is over or remember only as frighful night
mare?

The rare facility of the late Senator
John James ingalls,, of Kansas fol-
repartee was fully recognized by his
senatorial colleagues. With a single
exception, none of them ever inten-
tionally invited Senator ingalls, to
discharge his satire-tipped shafts
against him Occasionally, however,
he took the opportunity to convey a
compliment in an epigrammatic man.
ner to some one of his colleagues OF
whom he was especially fond.
One senator, however, was without
any fear of Senator Ingalls's shafts,
since he was confident that, no matter
how sharp or how hard-driven they
were, he was himself able to turn
them so that the recoil would wound
the Kansas statesman.
This exception was Senator George
G. Vest, of Missouri. Senator ingalls,
and Senator Vest sometimes typif1ed
the characteristic rivalry-which
seemed occasionally almost to be
tinged with animosity-which charac-
terized some of the relations between
Missouri and Kansas. Personally,
Senator Vest and Senator ingalls, were
as unlike as 1t is possible for Ameri-
yentionalities and the atmosphere OF
high cultivation which characterize
Americans who read the classics,
study, and are brought constantly In
touch with the leaders of American
thought in that way.

in perfect balance and symmetry

THE AMENDED CLAYTON ANTITRUST BILL.

Three Democratic Senator's MARITIME, Lane and
Reid voted against the adoption by the Senate of the
conference report the Clayton antitrust bill be-
cause the committee amendments to the BILL in their
belief emascuated it. With the adoption OF the re-
port by the House the bill goes to the President and
will be signed.
It depends a great deal on the operation of the
trust bills passed by this Congress whether the Pro-
gressive party will be formidable in the presidential
election in 1916. The laws will be judged by their
results and not by their titles.
If the teeth have been taken out of the trust acts
the trusts will continue to flourish, the people will
continue to be oppressed by them, and no kind OF
casuisry will convince voters that the antitrust laws
are any better than the seven sisters laws OF New
