Action On Submarine Situation
Pit Off " Beth HelSes.
Plain Talk Exchanged but President
Wilson Still Stands SolidIy for
Full Rights Of Americans.

Washington, D. C.-Congress settled
down Saturday to await developments
in the submarine controversy between
the United States and Germany with
an overwhelming majority of both
houses apparently definitely deter
mined to take no action which might
embarrass the administration in the
present stage of diplomatic negotia-
tions a few of the more ardent advo-
Gates of legislation to keep Americans
off armed ships continued their activ-
tiles, and ex-Secretary Bryan's sup
port for them was shown in the form
of telegram, but even most of them
admitted there was no propect of i'm
mediate action.
So far as the administration is
concerned, it was said authoritatively
that while any agitation of the issue
just now was undesirable, there was
no disposition to oppose vote on the
pending armed-ship resolutions if their
sponsors tried to force one.
1t was declared that reports from
the capitol during the day showed con-
clusively that the senate and the house
would stand behind President Wilson
in his refusal to permit any abridge-
ment of the rights of American citi-
zens on the seas, as outlined in his let
ter to Senator Stone.
The President reiterated his state
ments in that letter to Speaker Clark,
Majority Leader Kitchin and Repre-
sentative Flood, chairman of the house
foreign affairs committee, early in the
day when they called at the White
House to tell of the situation on theil
side of the capitol and hear the execu
tive's views.
There was plain speaking both b,
President Wilson and his callers Mr.
Wilson said plainly that his efforts t.
keep the country at peace were ikel,
to be hindered by impressions sen
abroad by congress-, and the congress
men were equally frank in givini
notice that strong sentiment existe'
at the capitol against risking the pos
sibility of war by permitting Ameri
cans to travel on armed belligeren
ships, whatever might be their right
under international law.
Although wholly different report
came from other sources during tn
day, Speaker Clark declared he be
lieved resolution to warn citizens Of
armed vessels would carry in the hous
by two to one if it reached vote.
The house delegation went back t
the capitol with word that the Presi
dent stood unalterably by his position
There the situation rests, and Will
there probably will be many more cor
ferences and possibly some speeches
the generally accepted opinion is tina
no further serious effort to bring abou
action will be made, unless develop
ments occur to make rupture of re
lations with Germany imminent.

ENGLISH RULE IN GREEN ISLE
Dates From Twelfth Century, When
Strongbow invaded Country to As
sIst King of Leinster.

Visitors to the historical places and
buildings of Ireland hear much talk OF
Strongbow. In the twelfth century,
when Strongbow became famous, Ire
land was divided into many small
provinces, and each of these had its
petty king. Dermot marlborough.
who was king of the province Of
Leinster, was very cruel and unpop-
ular ruler, and he was 10 disliked and
abused by his people and the neigh
boring rulers that he finally fled to
England, where he begged King Henry
ii for help in subduing his enemies.
But Henry remembered that there
were many other kings in ireland and
he refused to side with MacMurrough,
though he gave permission TO any Of
his subjects who liked, to 90 to Ireland
and aid the Lelnster king. A company
Of barons, therefore,. left their barren
lands in South Wales and crossed
over to Ireland to win themselves rich
lends there where soil was fertile. At
the head Of this band of barons was
Richard de Clare. earl OF Pembroke,
who was known as Strongbow, They
landed at Waterford. which city these
barons straightway captured. Strong
bow made his claim even stronger
by marrying, the daughter Of Dermot
MacMurrough. Then, learning that
Dublin was just then struggling to
free itself from the rule Of the Danes,
Strongbow made all haste in that di-
rection, and soon he had taken the
city by Storm Since that first land
ing and conquest by Strongbow and
the other barons the English have al
ways held more or less power over Ire
land.
An old historian. named Cambren-
sis, gives us the following quaint de-
scription Of the warrior Strongbow:
"The earl was somewhat ruddie and
Of sanguine complexion and freclSle-
faced, his eies grei, his face feminine
his voice small, and his necke little,
but somewhat Of high stature. He
was very liberal, courteous and gem
tie: what he could not compasse and
bring to passe in died, he would win
by good words and gentle speeches.
In time Of peace he was more readie
to yield and obeie than to rule and
beare swaie. In all chances Of ware.
he was still one and the same maner
of man, being neither dismaid with
adversitie nor puffed up with pros
peritie," picture which hardly Ats
such twelfth-century conqueror.-

Poker Chip Material Found.

1t has been several years since open
gambling was allowed in Texas and
other parts Of the Southwest. Even
polSer-playing is becoming an almost
lost art. As an evidence OF the fall
Ing off in this one-time great national
game, 1t may be stated that few peo-
pie realize that there now exists an
unprecedented shortage Of poker
chips, due to the war across the seas.
The knowledge of this threatened
crisis has caused worldwide search
to be made for the mineral known as
barite, which enters largely into the
manufacture Of poker chips. In the
days before the foreign war barite
came chiefly from Austria.
1t is well known to mineralogists
that the Llano region OF Texas con-
tains many rare and little-known met
ais. This fact caused search for
barite to be instituted, with the result
that large deposit Of the metal has
just been discovered ii that district.
The poker chip supply win soon be
repIenished from this new source Of
raw material.
Barite is also used IN the enamellng
OF iron and steel, the manufacture Of
points. the coating Of llnoleums and
ollcloths and the adulseration Of
sugar.
