LITERARY NOTES.

In 1876 Roberts Rules of Order was
published in the belief that such a book
was needed to aid in organizing the
duties OF officers, and the methods of
dealing with motions in great detail.
The book steadily increased in sale.
and during the SO years since it was
published a half million copies have
been sold There has come from all
sections of the country TO the author
of the book an earnest demand for a
revision and enlargement of the man
uai The present book. published un-
der the title of Roberts Rules of Order
Revised, is Just now issued TO meet
this demand. Every form OF organiza-
ton, from the school debating society
In the country TO the state or national
legislature, has found Roberts rules
a helpful handbook. This new. en-
larged edition will, therefore, be well
coined everywhere. The supplement to
the book. as a plan for the study OF
parliamentary law. will add greatly to
the usefulness of the manual in clubs
and organizations where there is time
for, and interest in, the study and
practice of parliamentary procedure.
The new book contains nearly twice
as much material as the last previous
edition and on all parliamentary points
is strictly up to date.

heard in the cellos. but It gradually
rises through the chorus and at last
forms the theme of the amen period.

LONDON CTuesday) Aug. 3l.-The
enlargement Of the Russian cabinet by
ten members, five 10 be chosen from

of the Empire was tentatively agreed
on as a means of making the govern

Since the Duma assembled" the
correspondent adds, vigorous efforts
have been made to devise some means
by which the government and repre-
sentative chamber could cooperate
more closely and effectively. Some
members would have preferred an inn
mediate transition to a Parliamentary
Government but this idea naturally
found many opposers. An agreement
was finally reached on the project un-

| INVESTIGATION
WATTS OPINION
IN COLORADO
Investigation of Charges Against
General Chase Stopped Pend
ing Determination of Powers
of Board Appointed.

DENVER. Aug. 3O.-The investiga-
tion of the charges against Adjutant
General Chase and of the men who
made the charges, struck a legal snag
The court of inquiry. appointed by
Governor Carlson, after two witness
es had defed it's authority and refus-
ed to answer questions asked Attor-
ney General Farar for an opinion Of
its legal status and powers.
Meantime a former captain of the
guard was ordered under arrest by
the court He was at liberty on or
ders of the governor as commander
in-chief Of the Colorado Militia. The
feature Of the proceedings was a race
between former Captain Vancise, a
witness, and an order for his arrest
in the hands of Major Boughton Of
the military court down the marble
steps Of the capitol to the office of
the governor. Spectators declared it
dead heat The captain won, for
the governor ordered that he be not
arrested.
The trouble started when S. C. b.
Elliot, the former adjutantgeneral of
West Virginia. and now reputed to be
a detective in the employ Of the Unit
ed Mine Workers of America, refused
to answer questions regarding the al
legged plot Of detectives and labor
leaders to wreck the state guard.
The court contemplated the issu-
ance Of a judgement for his arrest on
the charge Of contempt but delayed
the action until certain of its rights
Then, late in the day former Cap
tain Nancise. who commanded the
ramous college Company" in the
strike zone in 1884, and who was
later the leader of the anti-Chase fac
tion within the National Guard. was
called to the stand All went serene
ly until the court asked Vancise ques-
tions that he fatty refused TO answer
Then the baiin was ordered to place
him under arrest. The captain refused
TO be arrested; then came the race TO
the governors office.
