Executive Sessions

IL is to be hoped the Senate will not abolish its
executive sessions. So far as the public is concerned,
The present arrangement works admirably. BY lock-
ing the doors and throwing the veil of secrecy over
matters, curiosity is whetted, and certainly interest
is amply %gratificd. There is as much of Mother Eve
as Of Father Adam-irreveren;ly referred to as OLD
Adam-in the world. The forbidden has a tang all
it's own. Stolen kisses are the sweetest.
Take yesterdays executive session as a case In
point. The published story is reasonably full, and
very entertaining. One is advised Of the subject
under discussion, the character of the discussion,
the names of the participants and the final lineup.
What more could a reasonable person desire? with
the Panama tolls question, the battle at Torreon'
the homeward movement OF John Lind, and the VI.
ster racket in Ireland all pressing for space, what
more could the newspapers print about the confrma-
ton of an interstate commerce commissioner?
The story is well lighted up. There is the threat
CT expulsion for telling out of school. There is the
dare flung back with spirit. There is the new point
raised about whether a senator swears to, by, under,
or at the Senate's rules, or simply 10 support and
defend the constitution.
Seriously speaking, the matter under discussion
behind closed doors in the Senate recently has as.
poets to which the, public has the right to many par
ticulars. 1t is based, indeed, upon"a public record.
Much was known before any Senator, either for or
against Nh4s oNACN OhC ~ ~kt H"o oU~s AS-S
fore, has a public bearing; and if Senators choose
later to repeat themselves, Oh the stump or else
where, and even alnplfy their remarks, there will
lie no just criticism OF their. course. And, that course
will be as free to one side as the other.
There is public business which always has been
and always will be transacted in private. 1t has to
do with treaties and correspondence passing between
the state department and our diplomatic represent
atives. No Senator would think Of %divulging any
information of that kind coming to him either in his
official capacity or as an Individual. There is not a
member of the Senate who could not be trusted to
exercise excellent udgmen in all such cases.
Likewise, there is good reason for secret confer
ences in party matters. Blinds should be drawn and
doors locked when family differences are being ad-
justed. 49, '.'. p
= All of this is plain enough. But secrecy which
denies the public what the public has 4 right to know
will always, in this era Of publicity, in some way be,
and SHOULD De-, Observation-Disclosures Star.

SATURDAY BATHING.

A Custom the 0eeident Borrowed From
e.. tho Orient.
Most barbarians, judged by modern
standards, were anything but cleanly
in their personal habits. In England.
France and Germany bathing was an
almost unknown custom until after
the Crusades. The pilgrims from the
east brought home with them ideas Of
the bath as help IN the treatment of
disease, and bathrooms were gradually
introduced into the hospitals. From
the hospitals the ideas Of bathing
spread generally. People who had
been treated there say the value of
keeping the body cleantin order to re.

swept over Europe in the early years
Of the fourteenth century helped to
teach this lesson.

Saturday was chosen as bathing time
and the reason is not difficult to i'm.
agine. On Sunday everybody was COM
PEELED to 60 to church, whether he
would or, not. As,the Moslem In the
east bathed before entering the mosque
so did the medieval man before enter

bath on Saturday afternoon In order
to Ike clean the following day. There
was, even a distribution Of bath money
to the children whose parents were
unable to pay for their baths.-New

In buying a; diamond see to it that
your stone is neither too deep nor too
shall low. If it be too deep the table"
at the top Of the stone will have a dead
look instead of showing as much color
and light as at the edge. where tho
diamond is cut thin to receive the
light. You are simply, paying for ex.
ira weight that adds nothing to, but
rather detracts from the appearance Of
the gem. The shallow stone, on the
other hand-which is technically known
as a.3sb eye-has a CLASSY look. Some
people buy them because they appear
bigger than they really are. but the
bargain is a poor one and to be avoided.

Another Great BattleShip

Following within a few days OF the news OF the
turning over Of the Texas-"the most powerful bat
tleship aiOat today"-by her builders to the govern
ment comes word through the public prints that the
keel of battleship No. 80, which will be the most
powerful fighting machine Of the superdreadnought
class, has been laid in the Brooklyn navy yard, after
a brief and simple ceremony. Batt}cship No. 80, in
the words of the commandment, of the yard at which
the ship will be built, will establish, a new record
in naval construction A new record is established
with each ship. Tho progress Of the navy is an
interesting thing to the American public. The outer
line of defense, strong, ready and, mobile, has a firm
hold on the popular and the thoughtful mind. There
is MO demand in the United states for diminishing
the relative naval strength Of the nation. There Is
no demand among taxpayers for a little navy. There
is a demand for an adequate navy, and adequate
navy means ono that can protect tho United States
in any contingency Which may arise.

CHAPTER XIX.

It was June and the windstorms
which had swept in from the south
east died away. No more, as in the
months that had passed, did the dust
pillar rise from the dump Of the For
tuna mill and go swirling up the can
yon.
A great calm and heat settled over
the harassed land, and above the far
blue wall of the Sierras the first thun-
der caps Of the rainy season rose up
till they obscured the sky. Then, with
a rush Of conflicting winds, a leaden
silence, and a crash Of Pickering light,
the storm burst in tropic fury and was
gone as quickly as 1t had come.
So, while the rich landowners Of the
hot country sat idle and watched it
grow, another storm gathered behind
the distant Sierras; and, as empty
rumors lulled them to a'false security,
suddenly from the north came the
news of dashing raids, Of railroads
cut, troops routed, and the whole bor-
der occupied by swarming rebels.
In a day the southern country was
isolated and cut off from escape and,
while the hordes Of Chihuahua insur-
rectos laid siege to Aqua Negra, the
belated Spanish haciendadoe came
scuttling once more to Fortuna There,
at least, was an American town where
the courage of the Anglo-Saxon would
protect their women In extremity. And.
If worst came to worst, It was better
to pay ransom to red-iag generals
than to fall victims to bandits and loot
ers. -. b.. d.
As the bass roar Of the great whistle
reverberated over the hills Bud Hook
er left his lonely camp almost gladly,
and with his hard-won gold-dust safe
beneath his belt, went g~alloping into
town. -. - l-
Not for three weeks-not since he
received the wire from Phil and To-
Gated the Eagle Tail mine-had he
dared to leave hie claim. Rurales, out
laws and Mexican patriots had dropped
in from day to day and eaten up most
of his food, but none Of them had
caught him mapping. and he had no in
tention that they should. +
A conspiracy had sprung up to get
rid of him, to harry him out of the
country, and behind 1t Was Aragon.
But now, with the big whistle blowing.
Aragon would have other concerns.
He had his wife and daughter, the
beautiful Gracia, to hurry to the town,
and perhaps the thoughts Of being
caught and held for ransom would de-
ter him from stealing mines. So rea.
soned Bud, and, dragging a reluctant
pack-animal behind him, he came rid
ing in for supplies.
At the store he bought flour and cot.

needed most. AS he was passing by
the hotel Don Juan de Dios halted him

and hurrying back into the house, as

act of friendship.

they we're working the wild Yaquis
would never lack.
All the time that Amigo had been
doing two mems work and saving on
the price Of a shirt he had held that
cheerful dream in his mind-to kill
more Mexicans!
Yet, despite the savagery in him,
Hooker had come to like the Yaqui,
and he liked him still. With the
ruralee on his trail it was better that
he should 60, but Bud wanted him to
return. So, knowing the simple hon
esty of Indians, he brought out his
own spare pistol and placed it In Ami
COS hands. Often he had seen him
gazing at it l%ongingly, for 1t vas light
er than his heavy Mauser and better
for the journey.
Here" he said, II will lend you my
pistol-and you can give it to me when
you come back"
"Sure!" answered the Indian, hang
ing it on his hip; "adios!"
They shook hands then, and the
Yaqui disappeared in the darkness. In
the morning, when a squad of rurales
closed in on the camp, they found
nothing but, his great tracks in the
dust.
