So Disappointing.

Reginald loved his wife tenderly n
devotedly, but be had to acknowledge
In the Utmost recesses of his heart
that the hand that welded the powder
puff lost its art in the pudding dish.
What pudding would you like to-
night, love" she cooed at breakfast
time.
"Oh. anything" he whispered des-
perately.
"Anything?" she reiterated. in q
panied tone.
We'll. you know, old girl; anything
light-only don't tire yourself out"
You shall have your favorite-cus-
tard, dear" she promised.
Toward seven o'clock Reginald 70
turned. but the sound OF weeping and
gnashing Of teeth greeted his trained
ear.
Whatever is it, my dear girl?" he
implored. as he rushed into the kitch-
en-.
"Ooo-oh." she sniveled on his
waistcoat. I've been making you
custards all the afternoon, and"
And what. pet?"
They all t-t-turned out sponge

LOSE FIFTY IN THE HOUSE
Administration Leaders Claim to have
Maintained a Good Working Ma
jority-Shift In Leadership.

Washington. The Democratic ad.
ministration surveyed the field OF po-
litical battle and counted UP losses
throughout thu country, sustained in
the engagement at the polls.
The president. who retired without
waiting for detailed reports of the
election, awoke to find his party ma
tority in the house pared down on
siderably, with returns still coming
in. and its control of the senate main
tained, but with several seats depen-
dent oil backward returns.
Democratic leaders asserted that
the losses in the house, where upward
Of so additional seats were captured
by Republicans, were no more than
they had expected. They declared
hat the administration retained a
good working majority" Many dis
tricts were still In doubt, however
and Republicans claimed that the final
returns would show the Democratic
majority reduced still further. or per
haps entirely eliminated.
The result in the house will shift
the Democratic leadership in thai
body. Majority Leader Underwood
who has piIoted the Democratic side
since 1910. and who handled the vii
son Legislative program In the house
was elected TO the senate from Ala
bama. Several Southern member
who were reelected will contest 70
the leadership. Speaker Clark wa
elected by an overwhelming vote, an
undoubtedly will be the speaker OF tn
next house. Representative Mann, @
Illinois, who va also reelected, VII
retain the minority leadership.

SHIVELY WINS IN INDIANA
Entire Democratic Ticket Reelected In
indiana-ShiveIy's Plurality About
&c. oooIProgressives Third.

Indianapolis, Ind.-Incomplete re
turns from the election in Indiana in
dictate the reelection of United states
Senator B. F. Shiyely by a plurality Of
about 20. 1000, and the entire Democratic
state ticket, headed by Homer l.. Cook
for secretary of state. The Progress
sives ran a poor third, Indiana's solid
congressional delegation was broken,
the Republicans winning in the Sew
enth and in the Tenth districts. The
outcome in the Second, where a strong
fight was made against Congressman
W. A. Cullop, and the Sixth, was still
in doubt, with both the Democrats anf
Republicans claiming victory.

Wilson Loses at Home.

Trenton, N. president Wilson's
home congressional district, the
Fourth, elected Elijah c. Hutchinson,
Republican, to succeed Congressman
Allan B.. Walsh, Democrat, by about
1000 plurality.
Meager returns Indicate strong Re
publican gains throughout the state,
and the Democrats probably will have
no more than four or five of the II
congressman. In the present delega-
ton are 10 Democrats. The Democrats
probably will retain their majority In
the state senate, but apparently haV
lost control of the assembly.

Nashville.-With complete returns
majority Of 1859. The counties which
are not included In this list are the fol
lowing: Polk, Anderson, Bledsoe, Clai-
borne. Meigs, Van Buren, and Davidson.
Returns from five of the East Tonnes
see counties among those that are now
missing are expected TO reduce Rye's
majority about 1000.
On the other hand, Davidson county
Is expected to come to the front with a
majority OF from 1000 to 1000 for Rye,
and Van Buren, is also expected to
help.
When all the returns are in, It is
expected that Rye's majority will be
q, 900.
The result exceeded the most roseate
expectations Of Democrats herse.
The election at this time, with re-
turns still incomplete, almost looks
like a landslide.
The Nashville Banner, Gov. Hooper's
strongest newspaper supporter, con
cedes the election of Rye. Democratic
nominee for governor, by $4,000.
Indications on the face of early re
turns are that Gen. T. G.. Rye has de
feated Gov. Ben w. Hooper. Repub
lican, for governor of Tennessee by :
majority Of at least 10000 votes. Al
though majorities for Rye were re
duced in some West Tennessee town.
and cities, In East Tennessee, the Re
publican stronghold, Hooper's major
tiles we're also reduced. The countr.
districts in West and Middle Tennessee
have come strong for Rye, and it /
estimated these districts will roll up
sufficient number Of votes on the SEE
ond-day count to make the result II
contestable.
George N. WEIGH, for railroad con
missioner, middle district, is falling bu
little behind the Rye vote. and hi
election over Capt. w. H. Sadler Is q
most certain.
Returns indicate no change In tn
Tennessee congressional delegation
and although returns are incomplete,
is estimated the Democrats will hav
a comfortable working majority

Difference in War Declarations.

There was a great difference in the
manner OF commencing a war CEN
turtles ago to what there is now Now
the blow is frequently struck before
the word and there is no obligation to
issue a formal declaration at all. the
act Of war constituting the declara-
ton. But in medieval times Nc war
eyer began without a formal declara-
ton by a herald. who. in a most lei
surely manner, breathed defiance on
the part of his royal master, az
changed innumerable bows with his
enemies. and departed in as dignifed
a manner as he came.

Maj. George P. Ahern, director of for estry in the Philippines, has in his serv- ice many Isorrote fire wardens in North ern Luzon. says a Washington special to the New York World. He has designed a natty, dark green khaki uniform coat for them, but it is not popular because the fabric catches on the thorns and so impedes their passage through the tim ber The coat is adorned with brass but tons and shoulder cords of interwoven green and yellow. The gee-string to be worn with the coat is of a similar shade of green. trimmed with yellow, with long green fringe
 Heretofore the lgorrote Wardens have been wearing their badges of authority on their gee-strings for want of a better place to pin them. It is somewhat dihi cult for the forest users and trespassers to locate badges so placed. and one reason why Major Ahern wants the Igorrotes 10 wear these coats is that they will thus be able to pin their badges in conspic- uous place. There is a suspicion that some of the lgorrotes who have accepted | the uniform coats hang them on a cen venient limb or secrete them on entering the forests and don them on their return The Philippine forest service is mod elled, so far as conditions will permit, upon the service in this country.

SEEKING PARDONS FOR CONVICTED MEN

Chicago, April 5-A movement seeking pardons for the members of the Structural Bridge and Iron Workers convicted at Indianapolis of illegally transporting dy- namite Tn interstate commerce, was be- gun here today. Petitions to President Wilson, charging that the men were rushed through their trials. were circu- lated at a meeting of the Chicago Fed eration of Labor.
 Frank M. Ryan, president of the Struc- tural Iron Workers and among those convicted, addressed the federation.
 "The special train to convey us to Leayenworth," he said was ordered by government officials 40 days before The trial was ended. This showed how sure former District Attorney Miller was of a conviction and such was the chance we had Of a fair trial.''
 Ryan said the convicted men hoped to get 60-day stay after the United States supreme court issued it's mandate April 4, returning them to the federal peni- tentiary.

 San Jose, Cal-Plowing is no harder than playing basket ball. in the opinion of Miss Dora Clay, daughter of Alexander Clay, a wealthy orchardist living on the Fremont road She so informed officers Of the juvenile court and humane officers of this city. who have been requested by the Clay neighbors to investigate whether or not the girl is being cruelty forced to do heavy manual labor in her fathers orchard
 Mrs. l. C. Merriman was detailed to in- vestigate reports and visited the Clay ranch. The girl was in town at the time. but Clay was at home and stated that if more girls were raised as his girl was being reared there would be fewer cases of them being ruined in the restaurants of San Jose,
 Later Mrs. Clay and her daughter, who is. pretty. robust girl of 16. visited tho probation office and also called on Dr. J. w. Davy of the Humane association. Miss Clay stated that she was blowing in the orchard of her own volition and felt sure that the work was no more difficult than basketball.
 Mrs Merriman took the stand, however, that such work was injurious to a 16-year- old girl and threatened to take the case into court and have it tried before jury of women.
