Riaht For the First lime.

One winter masquerade party was
given at New York, at which practi-
cally all the great musical lights in
the country were present. Very few
knew who any of the others were, but
In some way Josef Hofmann, the IA
nous pianist, knew one of the dis
guised men to be leading musical
critic in the city. During the evening
the latter, grasping the hand of the
pianist, said:
II don't know who you are, but this
hand strikes me very much as the
hand of pianist"
Quite right" answered Hofmann,
''and it is the first time l have ever
known you to be right in a musical
criticism"
And as no one unmasked during the
evening the critic is still wondering
who said it.

Reform of the lower branch it

Already, in 1917, the North
Dakota Legislature has passed
bill granting the women of
that state the right of presiden-

The bill has been signed By
Governor Frazer.
In Ohio, too, both the House
and Senate have passed a bill
granting the women of the Buck

presidential elections. Cover

The Effects Of a
Club Breakfast
By EDWARD T. STEWART

Bowling left his sleeping room at his
club and went downstairs to breakfast.
Scanning the menu, he saw, what he
had seen every morning, that if he or
lered a breakfast made up of different
dishes he would have enough for half
@ dozen persons and at a great cost, so
he gave his usual order, Oatmeal and
coffee" He ate a quarter of the Oat-
meal and left the table unsatisfed,
muttering anathemas against the man.
agement for not serving a different
kind Of breakfast.
I'm going into bachelor quarters" !"
he said to himself, land keep cook"
Going to his Office by a different
route from the usual one, he passed a
house on which was a sign, ITO Let. I"
1t was a dainty edif1ce and would
furnish him with just about the room
he needed. Pushing the bell button,
the summons was answered by a wo-
man just as dainty as the house She
was in mourning Bowling told her he
was thinking of taking a house and
was invited inside. After he had been
informed as to the number of rooms.
rental, ETC., he remarked:
81 wonder that you can bear to part
with such pleasant little home"
Tears stood in the lady's eyes as she
replied that she had been married a
year before and her husband had died
soon after the expiration of the honey
moon. She had not been able to tear
herself away from the home in which
she had been so happy and would not
do so now, but she had found living
alone improbable.
''The rental would be satisfactory to
me- said Bowling. May l look
through the premises p
The widow led him from the living
room to the dining room. On the table
was a breakfast that made his mouth
water-a dish of fruit, silver Of ba
con, an Omelet, with little parsley to
garnish it, and slices of toast. The cOf-
fee urn was of artistic shape, and the
cups were Dresden china
Il was just sitting down to breakfast
when you called" said the lady.
Isn't it an elaborate breakfast for
one personY asked Bowling.
Il eat little or nothing between
breakfast and dinner" was the reply.
Bowling looked longingly at the vi
ands.
Madam" he said, II have just break
tasted at my club. 1 have had my
first course of oatmeal and am ready
for the rest. If you will permit me to
finish the meal here of these viands l
will rent your house at the price you
ask, with a liberal bonus"
The widow, seeing the hungry look
on DOwling's face, assented and, set
ting a plate for him, seated herself be-
fore the coffee urn. There was no
bOuntiful supply for healthy man of
thirty, but everything was. so delicious
that the quality made up for the lack
of quantity.
Il supposed" she said, that a club
table comprised every delicacy, no mat
ter how costly"
"'No matter how costly is correct"
replied Bowling. CAS- to delicacy, you
have been misinfOrmed."
Bowling spent an hour at the table,
but the principal part Of it was in
chatting with the widow. When he
arose to go he said that he would call

or the statutes preceding the primary
law, definitely prescribing methods Of
making nominations for vacancies in
congress.
In the ranks of the republicans
there Is also much uncertainty. With
the announcement Of many candi-
dates, there would seem to be an oc-
casion for much embarrassment in
the face Of the. necessity of more unit
ed action.
While numerous attorneys are dig
8tng into the statutes and the prece-
dents, State Central Committee Chair
man William Lemke has in mind a
method Of cutting the Gordian knot,
q method that would be highly satis-
factorily to himself and his immedi-
ate associates. Mr.. Lemke. in an inter-
view, said he believed the best pro-
cedure would be to have the execu-
tive committee Of the state central
committee make the nomination with
out even calling the state committee
together or calling a conventions
any kind.
Committee to Do 1t.
I found Mr.. Lemke in consultation
with F. B. Wood of Deering, in Mr..
Lemke's office, pouring over statutes
and codes on this very matter. 1t was
Mr.. Lemke's contention that as the
statutes did not forbid this method of
naming q candidate, there could be
no question Of the legality of so do
ing.
recalled to my mind I had heard
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1917-04-16

such argument in Bismarck the
past winter, when there was a ques-
ton of the legality Of the legislature
a revision Of the constitu-
ton.
Mr.. Lemke said he had looked up
the matter in the statutes and codes
as far back as 1899, long before there
primaries to make specific d.
rections on how elections we're to be
conducted He also had been unable
to discover anything in the primary
law governing the filling Of a vacancy
in congress and, therefore, 1t would
be necessary to revert to the general
election laws Of q, former era.
Wants the Job.
But the real point Of the whole
business, so far as Mr.. Lemke is con
cerned, is that the executive commit
tee will appoint Mr.. Lemke himself,
if there is nothing arising to prevent
this procedure.
I gather from conversations with
other gentlemen interested in the flu
ture of the republican party, that they
would he verse to such action, If il
were possible to place another candi-
date in the field in opposition to Mr.
Lemke. and it may be possible that II
