SUPPLY BILL IN HOUSE.
$22 .OOO, 900 Asked For Department Of
 Agriculture For Fiscal Year.

Washington, Jan. 26.--The house which met early today to resume con- sideration of the big supply bill car rying $22.000, ,O00 for the department of agriculture for the next nscal year, still is undergoing difficulty in main taining a quorum, which both demo- cratic Leader Underwood and Repub- lican Leader Mann have warned their colleagues is necessary constantly to avert an extra session of congress. So far not a single change has been made in the agricultural bill, though some of the provisions, particularly as to hog cholera serum lump sum appropriations and expert farm man. agement appropriations have caused lively discussions.
 The house adjourned late last night after fruitless two hours wait for a quorum to go. ahead with two om- nibus private pension bills. When the the night session began, the house lacked sixty of a quorum When it adjourned without transacting any business whatever, it still lacked twenty. and while the house marked time during the search for apsentees, members passed the time participat- ing in or listening to a jocular de- bate. The entertainment, for the most part, was furnished by Repre- sentatiVes Murray of Oklahoma Gin the chair), Adamson of Georgia, and Moore of Pennsylvania.

GERMAN PROJECTILE EXCELS IN SPEED
But the American f8-inch Shell Has Greater Energy and More Pcnc-
 trative Power in Steel ArmOr.

Washington, Jan. 26.-Lack of pre- else ballistic data concerning the new German naval 16-inch gun which has caused so much discussion in Eng land, does not according to naval ex- perts here today, permit of a close comparison between it and the new American naval gun of the same coli bre now under test at Indian Head, Maryland. It appears, however, they think, that whereas the German pro- jectile, with a velocity of 3.o4O feet per second has a slight advantage over the American 16-inch shell in speed, the latter weighing 2,150 pounds is more than 100 pounds heavier than the German shot and consequently will have greater striking energy and more penetrative power in steel armor.
 This factor of penetration after all, according to leading American naval experts, Is the prime object instead of range, as is generally supposed. Any one of the larger calibres of the American naval guns will now hur it's projectile beyond Athe range of human vision, and nothing of value can be accomplished by shoot ing further than they do.
 On the other hand, there is grave objection to sacrificing the defensive puwer and speed of a war vessel to unnecessarily large guns The maxim of the navy department as set out by a distinguished expert is to equip American battleships with the small est and lightest gun that will pene- trate at ranges within vision the heaviest armor that can be carried on the enemy's ship.
 It Is believed that this object has been realized in the new naval 14-inch gun, which is being placed on the largest dreadnoughts The 16-inch gun now at Indian Head was designed and constructed by the naval ord nance bureau with the sole purpose of having ready a larger and more powerful weapon than the 14-inch gun in case it should be demanded by naval developments. It is said that so far no such need has appeared as the result of the naval battles of the present European war.

Dress Goods.
(Fall River Herald )

Tn five of the larger cities of the
 country this week. imultaneous shows of the beauties of cotton fA-
 brics in dres goods are to be made.
 Special efforts f1ave been undertaken
 to invite many of the women of those cities to the display, so that 1t is cer- tain that new attention will be given to and new interest aroused in such fabrics. for the coming season Tn those communities. The incident is
 of interest in cotton manufacturing circles because 1t indicates that the movement started by women in
 Washington in behalf of cotton dress goods has become more than pass ing fancy and has won indorsement quite extensively throughout the country. Fashion has already done things to the cotton goods market that did not lend to it's prosperity. It can do things that will tend nightly to make buisness for the looms, and that Is what this movement means. If the women of the country are led to look with favor on cotton goods and to prefer them to more costly fa- brics the benefit will be quickly felt by the mills and those who are employed in them. For that reason the simultaneous demonstration Of the attractiveness of cotton goods in five widely separated cities is a mat ter of considera ble importance, taken in connection with other movements already begun. to establish a demand for such fabrics. It is intimated by the fashion makers that women are to wear more voluminous gowns than have lately been the vogue and that, too, means business for the cotton factories. Much will depend upon the real convictions of the women of the land as to the use of cotton dress goods. If they are convinced that the goods are attractive as finer fabrics and will buy them consistent ly enough to make them the fashion throughout the country, the mission ary effort, started primarily for the benefit of the cotton planters, as the logical and only positive relief for an overa bundant cotton production, will have proved to have been a success of widespread importance.

Rebellion in Hyde Park?
(Cnicago Tribune.)

It is related that carly one Sabbath morning a househo older in Hyde Park, springing from his couch lightly, as do all the happily virtuous in that sylvan section and drawing his trousers up over the skirts of his nightie. went out on the front porch to make a dash for the Sunday paper and getting it, avoid. if possible, the critical gaze of punctilious neighbors. The orb of day was just showing his hot face above the modest and blush ing bosom of Lake Michigan, and Hyde Park was as undisturbed as Eden in the pre-reptilian period.
 Our scurrying householder in his not immodest but not elaborate vest ments might have been undetccted if it had not been for the approach of a gentleman carrying a suitcase. The gravely whiskered face of the Hon. James R. Mann, an austerity modi fled by humanity and attended by the rest of his statesmanly person, was upon our house holder. who composed himself and spoke: "Ah, congress- man, just in from Washington
 "No," said MT. Mann. "No. I have just been taking some seeds to some friends of mine. some constituents You are up early at it, said our householder. "Yes,' said Mr. Mann: "yes. these little things are what mako 1t come so easy
 The householder was not sure, but he thought the austerc MT. Mann winked as ne went on his way With the suitcase which had contained the seeds. We relate this little incident in statecraft because it appears in the local intelligence that a constituent of Mr. Mann has sent back the seeds Mr. Mann sent him and has written tartly that he does not want them as substitutes for good works.
 This is bound to distress MT. Mann, who. in addition to being devoted to good works, loves to scatter con- gressional nasturtiums and begonias throughout his district exchanging a packet for ballot, ten seeds for a vote.
 Every night after Mr. Mann has read ten volumes of tho encyclopedia and recited the rules of order twice he loves to close his eyes moment before going to bed and thus think tenderlv of the kindly folk back home into whose life he nas sent simple pleasure, who may have passed the day pressing the nasturtium pod into the willing soil, who may have been watering the young sprouts or other wise tasting horticultural joys.
 If the little packets are losing their efficacy MT. Mann will grieve, Hyde Park will be given over to burdOCk and thistles. and where there was a grateful, simple husbandry there will be wild and rebellous people kicking at the props of government and speaking .contuma ciously of the elder statesmen. .... t.-.

STATE TAX MUST CONTINUE.

mere does not appear to be any
 escape from the state tax this year
 or even next, and there is some question whether the state can let go 'of 1t after that. There is nothing to De gained by hammering on the state debt or how it was contracted now All know what it is, that it must be paid and that plans must be adopted with this end in view. All this how ever. carries with it the continuance of the state tax which will make New Britain's bill over $40, ,ooO which is neat sum when it is considered that the funds might be used for purposes other than making up for the extrav- agance of the Connecticut legislature The latter body is going to be inn portuned for money for various pur- poses in addition to the fixed charges against the state and if these appro- CT provision must be made for caring for the state debt and at the same time keeping the annual expenses within the income which has proven an impossible task during the past few years.
 It was predicted that when F. s. Chamberlain was elected state trea- surer he would provide some plan for reducing the debt but try as he will he cannot do anything if the legs- lature is going to vote for new ap- propriations with no money to meet them Influences are already at work in the interest of some new expendi- lures and there never was legislative body in Connecticut that did not hearken to this influence. although 1t must be admitted that the war chest was never in such a condition as it is at present. It cannot be replell- ished by adding to the expenditures and yet that is understo ood to be the, aim of some of the members of the legislative body. The economists will need to keep their eyes open until the motion to adjourn sine die is passed

WHAT OTHERS SAY
Views on all sides of timely questions as discussed in ex- changes that come to Herald office.
How Warsaw Was Saved.

(Percival Gibbon in Golfers Weekly)
 The railway stem that veins the country on the German side of the Polish frontier gave the Germans the the start they needed of the Russian general staff; their concentration was complete and four great gray blue armies were on Polish soil and bear ing down on Warsaw before the Rus sians had moved man. They had taken Lodz before Warsaw had even heard of their advance; they were bonn mbarding Ivangorod and it's bridges; by the 10th of October they had passed Lowitz and Shirardow and their line was spreading itself to the east like arms which they opened to embrace and strangle Warsaw. And then like a man who sleeps through a fire till his bed catches alight, Russia woke up.
 The man who saved Warsaw was neither Grand Duke Nicolai Nicolaie- witch, commanders in-c chief, nor Rus ski, the newly emerged genius, nor Rennenkampf, the Stonewall Jackson of Russia: Theirs, perhaps were the errors--lf they were errors-that ena
 bled the Germans to get as far as they did; it is difficult to judge of that kind of thing. What was wanted at the moment was not generals; it was transportation. Warsaw, as it hap pens, is we'll served with railways, leisurely, gradual railways governed by the comfortable Russian system that allows for everything but haste and looks on three weeks as a reason able space in which to carry out 8 mobilization. Forth with into the Crl1tCh Of the erpencv cforrcd fha man who could deal with it, Stepan Rukloff, minister of railways. That, and not victory in war, is the standard of greatness in a race-that it can match the occasion with the man. Rukloff was the man. T.'
 l was at Lyck when the news came: l went down with trainload of South Siberian Cossacks, and if there were no war to write about I would like to write about that journey in a horse car with tn hose le-mannered, slim waisted long, skirted blood drinkers, the lean secret faces lighted up as drew upon their cigarettes and the queer hissing whisper of their talk as they spoke among themselves. But the wonder just then was the speed of the journey. Even in normal times, fifteen miles an hour is counted good going in Russia: in war time 1t Is any thing from twelve to two; but now we were in hurry, the side doors of the car were open; from it's darker inter- for l saw the night and the dark land beneath 1t go roaring past; thirty and forty miles to the hour were flying pack under our wheels. Behind us ana ahead of us were other trains, dou uble-engined, long as. streets and packed to the doors; every line that led to Warsaw had become a channel flooded with men and horses and guns pouring in at Rukloff's speed
 It needs railway man to appreci- ate 1t, the sheer science and magni- tude of the achievement, the problems of rolling stock, of time schedules and the rest, that were thus solved upon the moment

When tho Mother Instinct Fails,
(Frances Frear in Leslie's.)


 A mother who doesn't love her children is an unnatural woman A lot of people don't care for children, in general, but when a woman declares that she doesn't love her own. children we need to prepare for the worst. In this particular instance, that of a di- vorcc proceeding in which the mother was denied the possession of her children, the worst was that there was no room in the mothers heart for her own offspring because all her affection was lavished on horses and dogs. True, she saw that her children were well cared for by servants, but while the children were left to sleep in an adjoining room in charge of d nurse, she kept two puppies cuddled in a cozey corner in her own room subject to her personal care. This is an extreme case. It is not often that a woman is so untrue to natural in- stinct as to love a dog or horse. however, intelligent or faithful either may be, more than her own child When such a woman appears she should be outlawed from society and allowed to live with her dogs and horses. There are women by the h un- dreds who show more enthusiasm and interest over horses and dogs and au- tomobiles and cards and social func- tions than they do over their children. There are lot of women whose hus- bands have become suddenly rich, or who have been caught in the mad whlrl of extravagant living that char acterlzes our day, who turn their children over to servants altogether. There arc mothers who never had the Joy of nursing their babies, who never bate nor dress them or ever play with them, who utterly fail, as the children grow older, to enter into their lives or to have any sympath etic relations with them. If there is anyone who needs to hear the call to simple living 1t is such mothers.

NEW KRUPP GUN.

It is awful to contemplate the destruction that is being planned in construction of the new gun the Krupps are manufacturing for the German navy. The projectile, it Is said, will weigh a ton, the velocity will be 3,0SO feet second and with a range of about twenty-six miles. It IS stated that a vessel at sea can be dis tinguished about thirteen miles away and perhaps it could be distinguished twice that distance under a powerful glass. The great object in having a gun of this size and range is so that it can be relied upon to do its work at a distance beyond that of any other military piece. It is stated that the immediate object in the present case is to enable Germany to command the English coast from Calais, a distance of some twenty miles. It will remain a question for some time however, as to the real value of such a gun, not that it will not be capa ble of great destruction but to get around diff f1culties that must be experienced in range.
 Dover, on the English coast, migir easily make a good target because it is quite distance above the water except where the trains come in from London, the front being a stony eminence and it would seem as if it could stand great deal of bonn bard ing before there would be any dam- age caused, although the constant throwing of a ton shell against it with such force as the proposed make some sort of an impression every time it struck. People who have recently come from Europe say that over there it is expected that the war will end during the coming summer but whether it will be the result of intervention or because therc will be no more people to kill has not been explained It seems to be tho general opinion that the awful de- struction of the present conflict will prevent there ever being another war like it. Under those conditions the new long range gun would be more of a curiosity than of any real value.
