 Mrs. Lindley M. Garrison, wife of the former secretary of war, smiled wanly as she made this statement here, where she is visiting at the home of Mrs. George Leary.
 You see, l am a private citizen again. and that means more to me than you can imagine continued Mrs. Garrison. q did not realize how taxing social and political obli- gations could become until 1 manag- ed to get away from them.

 But the kiddies, ignoring lawyers opinions and chemists analysis, are asking what Christmas will be like next year without the usual double portion of mince pie and plum pud- ding. They even doubt whether Sam ta Claus will visit Colorado at all be- cause of the hateful decree.
 On the other hand, an epidemic of "melancholia infanitis," the official name for juvenile disappointment, may be expected before Santy's next annual visit. In that event physf- clans may be writing prescriptions |on the nearest drug store for the lcurative plum pudding.

If all of these plans fail, there is still a way out. Colorado offers all the wealth that is stored in her hills to the culinary genius who will in vent an acceptable substitute for the good old-fashioned mince pie and plum pudding. Prohibition has pro- duced many strange connections, intoxicating medicinal "tonics," va rious caffein stimulants at soda fountains, and near beer" Now enter "near mince pie" and "near plum pudding"
 Unless something is done, Colo radoans say, old Saint Nicholas may be driven to boot-legging in order to insure the kiddies an old-fashioned Christmas with pies and buildings of "the kind that mother used to make"

Arkansas Federation for BrandeiS.

Little Rock. Feb. 7.-Telegrams endorsing Louis D. Rrandeis of Bos- ton for the supreme court bench have been sent to Senators; Clarke and Robinson at Washington. F. C.. by the Arkansas State Federation of Labor, according to the announcement made Thursday morning by l.. H. Moore, secretary-treasurer of the orsaniza- ton. The telegrams also asked the Arkansas senators to support Bran deis.
 The local labor men state that they have had many dealings with Bran deis and know that he is fair with the labor interests. They feel, says MT. Moore, that he has more liberal conception of the law than any other person who might be appointed and that he is open to conviction.

 MT Brandeis announced that he would appear for Mr. Glavis, where as he was paid by Golfers Weekly declared MT. Storey.
 How do you know by whom he was paid?' asked Senator Walsh.
 "Only by hearsay."
 What difference did it make who paid him?"
 eff he had announced he was em- ployed by a newspaper he would not have been listened to as he was"
 Would you like 10 add your opin- ion to that of Mr. Barron that Mr Brandeis was employed to wreck the New Haven raiiroad?" inquired Sen ator Walsh.
 No, sir" responded Mr. Storey.
 Warren Will Case.
 Referring to the Warren will case regarding which IT. k. Bailey. a Bos- ten lawyer, charged that Mr. Bran deis was guilty of unprofessional' con- duct, Mr. Storey defended Mr. Bran deis. He said it was commor prac- tice for lawyers in such cases to rep resent all members Of the family. ev- en if some of their interests did clash
 s. L. Whipple, another Boston at torney concerned in the Warren will case, in response to questions by Geo. w. Anderson. representing Mr. Rrandeis. made this statement:
 "As a lawyer, Mr. Brandeis is able and learned. As man he is consci- T l. .x.I, InI fnn nfrrt of his career has been his unselfsh and unswerving devotion to the so- cial, moral and industrial unlift of the lowly and less fortunate of our peo- pie"

During a recent inspection Of the
Housatonic river near New Haven,
Rowing Coach Guy Nickalls, of Yale,
discovered a stretch which he stated
offers an unsurpassed course for in
tercollegiate regattas. In commenting
upon the possibilities Of the course, he
writes:
AT the dam above Derby, we found
magnificent spot for any home races
we can arrange for. The dam is about
FIVE miles long with deep water. The
state road runs on one side and the
railroad right on the edge OF the whole
way on the other. The bends are fair,
al d perfect course, or set of courses,
from four miles down to mile, can be
got. l have seen no better water in
the whole off America to hold a re-
gatta, as it is airy, fine, smooth, deep
water, and an absolutely fair course.
Here we may quickly find as olution
10 our whole boating problem. Yale
should be looking forward to running
on this water in the near future the
biggest regatta in the whole of Amer
lea. The thing is possible, and it
would do much to encourage aquatics
in New England"
The latter portion of Coach Nickall's
statement has aroused considerable in
terest and speculation among college
rowing authorities. Yale has, hereto
fore found difficulty in securing a suit
able course near the university for GER
tain regattas which the Blue would
like to stage. Lake Whitney is not

FolloWe rs ci pugilistic affairs in the

the opportunity which was afforded
a large number to see both principals

comparison of the respective ring

be made without injustice to either.

south of Chihuahua City, according to
information received here from Mexi
can sources which have proved usual
ly reliable in the past.
The man who brought the story Of

c!rcumstantial account of the bandits
maneuvers and plan of campaign. "Vil-

in any fighting with either American
or CarranZa troops. He left the main
body of his troops in the Guerrero
district with orders to oppose as far
as they could the American advance
At the same time the poems were in
structed to give information freely to
American officers, always provided
that the information was false. The
story Of villa being wounded was
carefully concocted for the express
purpose of misleading General Per
shing and Colonel Dodd into the be-
lief that the bandit was in hiding in
the mountains and thereby inducing
them to split their forces into small
searching parties who would waste
their time in the wild Sierras,
