laid aside temporarily and the rest OF
the day in the Senate was devoted to
the consideration of the agricultural ap-

by Senator Borah, Of Idaho. OF reso-
luton that the vote on the bill for repeal

Of Congress next December, ito the end
that this matter may again be submitted
to the voters of the United States, whose

Maurice Francis Egan. American Min

that he was instrumental in bringing
about South American mediation. In an
interview yesterday. Minister Egan said
Il am glad that the advances were
made and accepted. but / cannot claim
any of the credit for them. nor can
predict the direct results of mediation.
We lack the necessary data on which to
base conclusions. So far as I know
no protocol has yet been drawn to cover
the negotiations.
Even II the good Offices of the three
republics fail to bring a settlement which
We can accept, / think We shall have
improved our relations with South
America by carrying on the negotiations.
I have confidence In the fairness and
judgment OF the South American diplo-
mats They will not harry US by in
tractabillty into a position Of less cor
diality than We have maintained with
them prior to the negotiations. Huerta

the problem. and without further data Of

Friendly Sons of st. Patrick to
Sing Noted Composer's Works.
News of the sudden illness of Victor
Herbert has been received with much re-
gret among music lovers. not only on
account of the general regard felt for
this genial and large-hearted Irishman,
but also because il will prevent his ap-
pearance with the Glee Club of the
Friendly Sons OF ST. Patrick, of New
York, at their concert to be given at
the New Willard on May 10.
This organization mas been a favorite
of his, and he has always made 1t a
point, whenever possible, of appearing
at its concerts and conducting his own
compositions. Thanks to his careful
training, the club will do itself justice
I'm these numbers. Some Of his arrange
ments of Irish airs have been heard IN
this city, but the Hail OF the Friendly
Sons and his ''Oh Ireland" a stirring
march song, will be heard here for the

would like to go along II he were not
burdened with family or other cares,
William F. Kelley. confidential clerk TO
Secretary of State Bryan. leans back

Then Mr. Kelley tells Of his adventures
during the Sioux uprising that ended
In the battle OF Wounded Knee. Mr..
Kelley was along as war correspondent
for the Nebraska state Journal and the
Chicago Tribune. The only weak point
In. Mr.. KelIy's story is that he doesn't
look old enough to have been there.
II is indisputable that Mr.. Kelley was
there. He fought in the battle Of Wound
ed Knee. when the Sioux attacked the
United states troops at close quarters
after a truce had been declared. and
was dubbed The Brave Kelley" by
newsnapers-other than The Tribune and

Anti Saloon League Gets Busy

The Anti-Saloon League is getting
busy on the Eastern Shore as to the
naming of Congressional candidate
in the Forthcoming Democratic Dri-
maries. The sub-ioined letter is being
sent throughout the District:
Dear Friend and Co WORKER
The contest for d member of Con-
gress from your district is beginning
to grow warm. On account of the
Hobson- Sheppard Prohibition Amend
ment being an issue in Congress it is
of paramount Importance that the
member from the First District which
does not contain a single saloon should
correctly represent his constituents in
Congress.
The candidates as announced up to
date are the Hon. Jesse d. Price, OF
Salisbury, Col. Albert w. Sisk, OF
Preston and Mr.. James T. Bright, OF
Centerville.
You understand the policy of the
League will be to have all situations
like this looked after by The constitu-
ents of the District For that purpose
we have placed an organization in
each county of the State. As mem
Der of the Central Committee of your
county, | would advise that you write
these men at once and have a large
number of temperance Democrats
write asking them to define their posi-
lions on the National Prohibition Con-
stitutional Amendment. After their
replies arc in hand you will be in
position to direct the attention of the
temperance voters of your section to-
ward the candidate who will correctly
represent them if elected.
As the primaries will come early in
September this matter eeuuires haste.
Will you not kindly get busy at once?
Yours for victory,
T. NJ. HARE,
Superintendent.
