Senator Vest came TO try another case
and his reputation As a lawyer was such
that the owner OF the dog, determined
more on revenge than on the recovery

During the trial Vest uttered no word
asked no questions. He was not even
disposed to speak to the jury. but the
attorneys urged him to do so. pleading
that the plaintiff would think he had
not earned his fee IL he took no part
He then arose. slowly scanned for a
moment. the face of each Juror, and
said:
Gentlemen OF the jury, the best
friend a man has in the world may
turn against him and become his enc

reared with loving care may prove un-

GRAFT ORDER HARD RAP.
Several Ladies-in-waitjnE Expected
to Resign as Result!

Special Gable to The Washington He.h.
London. Jan. 1L-Several Of tho ladies
of Queen Mary's household are expected
to resign Immediately in consequence OF
an order issued by, the Queen to the ef-
feet that all grating among the men,
bers of the royal household must stop.
The order states that no lady OF the
royal household may have any connec-
tion with business of any sort. This or
der resulted from the constant practice
of ladies-in-waiting using their influence
to get orders from the royal household
placed with firms they were connected
with.
In one case a well-known West End
florist shop is owned by one of the ladies'
in waiting. and considerable scandal had
resulted from this shop getting the ma
jority Of the orders from the royal
family.

Everybody Rides In Washington

1t Is evident that Senator Williams
of Mississippi has undertaken big job,
in carrying out his intention TO fight
every appropriation for passenger We
hicIes for the use of government Off
Gals, unless it can be shown that it is
absolutely necessary. Senator Williams
is a good old Mississippi farmer, and
he finds the cars comfortable enough
for his purpose Therefore he was con
siderably riled when the information
was produced that there are 34l motor
vehicles owned and operated by the
government in the District of Column
bia; while the total number of horse
drawn vehicles are 1856. The War De-
partment has sixty five of these vehl-
cIes. the Interior Department 159. and
the Department of Agriculture sixty
four. OF all the Cabinet officers only
one rejoices in an automobile of his
own use. However,, the other Cabinet
officers have from two to four horse.
drawn vehicles. Secretary Bryan, for
instance has three carriages, a hroug-
han, victoria and surrey. The Sec
rotary of the Treasury, whose recent
engagement To the daughter of the
President, has brought him into prom
inence, has four carriages, a buggy, a
landau, a Brewster cabriolet, and a
/ brougham.

For College Men.

Government to Provide Outdoor Work
For College Men.
Washington.-The United States for
estry service and geological survey are
offering many positions to college men
for vacation work. Health and endur-
ance are the two biggest requirements
for the positions, which will keep the
oollegians out of doors the greater part
of the time The students will have
most of their expenses paid and at the
same time draw good wages.
The geological survey desires to en-
ploy limited number of men during
the summer months to assist biologists
in their field work or to serve as camp
hands. Only those who are fit mental
ly and physically for rough outdoor
work are eligible. The appointees are
required to pay their travelling ex-
penses to the field of operation. all 9th
err expenses incurred while under the
supervision of the survey being met by
the government.
The forestry service offers a more
limited form of employment In add
ton to the permanent force temporary
assistants are employed during the
summer months as fire guards or when
other special work requires addition to
the regular forest force.
Only men will be selected who are
qualified by familiarity in the district
in which the work is required. No eX
animation is necessary. but guards
may be called upon to perform work
similar to that of a ranger.

The Big Meat Eaters

According to the Department of Ag-
riculture the only countries reported
as having a greater per capita consum-
ption of dressed meat than the United
States are the Australian common
wealth and Argentina. These. it is well
known, are countries of sparse popu-
latlon and vast herds and flocks; hence
meat is exceedingly cheap and the nat
i've consumption large and probably
wasteful.
The per capita consumption of meat
for Australia and Argentina is estimat-
ed to be in the neighborhood of $50
pounds per annum; it may possibly be
even greater. The corresponding con.
sumption for the United States was
computed by the United States Bureau
of Animal Industry to be l72 pounds
in 1909, and 1T Is estimated to be about
ten pounds less at the present time.
This is much greater than the British
cosumption, the largest In Europe,
which is slightly under 1870 pounds per
inhabitant per annum

Church Notes.

The visit of the Independent Order
of Odd Fellows and the Daughters of
Rebecca to the Methodist church last
Sabbath was an occasion long to be re-
membered. The church was full to
over-flowing. Dressed as they were
with badges and seated in military or
der made guod impression. The church
choir sang beautiful anthem, Trust
in the Lord" The message was timely
and received by all with keen appre-
citation.
The subject for next Sunday morn
ing will be, "a Place for God IN Our
Lives. The regular form of church
service is carried out at this hour. We
purpose to make the morning service
especially helpful to protesting Chris
tians. Why not give God the best part
of the day by attending His public
worship?
Mothers Day will be celebrated
Sunday evening at half past seven.
Special effort is being made to have
one of the best services of the year.
The musical and literary world, as well
as actual life, is crowded with infor-
nation on this very important topic.
We believe in telling our mothers how
their toll and sacrifice is appreciated.
The text for the occasion will be,
Honour Thy Mother. A hearty well
come is extended to every mother in
town. Young people, make it possible
for mother" to attend this service.

SURGEON GENERAL W, c. GoRGAs, Q. s. =.
the treasury, will apply similar rule
to the officers of the revenue cutter
service.
1t is certain that President Wilson
will do nothing to stem the tide of pro-
hibition. the chief executive having
indicated his position clearly when he
asserted it is a departmental question
In which he is not concerned.
The president said that Secretary
Daniels had not consulted him about
the prohibition order, but that IT was
not necessary for him to do so.
Gorgas, who has been in South At
RIGA installing in the diamond mines
sanitary methods similar to those in
the Panama canal zone, expressed
great interest in the new move made
by Secretary Daniels.
He asserted that officers in both
branches of the service would be far
better off If they never touched liquor.
As surgeon general of the army he
is in a position to follow the lead of
Surgeon General BREASTED of the navy
in recommending the abolition of Off
GERS wine messes at army posts.
Secretary Daniels let remarks drop
indicating that notifications in the
order are likely to be made before it
goes into effect July l.
There is plenty of time between
now and July" said the secretary. ITO
make any notifications that may seen
necessary But the order will remain
absolute to the extent Of prohibiting
wine messes or the use of intoxicating
liquors In officers quarters. clubs or
other kinds of organizations on ship
board or at shore stations.
Il am convinced not only from what
l have seen, but from the examination
Of cases that come before me daily.
that many a young officer fresh from
the Naval academy learns,to touch the
first drop in these wine messes, and
not infrequently this leads to his dis
missa from the service"
