Betrayed By Bartered Bride

She had Just the kind of hazel eyes
and golden hair that he had dreamed of
and the sign said that he could make her
his wife for 81.
This and bevy of pretty brides
maids" proved too much for unsuspecting
Maurice Dewertz, twenty years old, of
1909 North Rackwell street, who was a
FIRST -nighter" at the Allied Bazaar in
Chicago, says the Tribune of that city.
He produced .he dollar and was about
to claim his bride" when he felt heavy
hand on his shoulder. He was arrested.
He was told that he faced long term
in prison for flirting
Then it dawned on Maurice that he
was the victim of a Joke. Subsequently
he thought of his dollar Forthwith he
sought a real officer of the law instead
of the one attired in theatrical toys who
had arrested him. But he was told that
he could not expect to get his money
back. So Maurice went home leaving
the pretty girl at the matrimonial booth
behind him.
"But ] guess the kiss ! got from her
was worth 81 anyway" he said cheerily
as he departed.

NEWLANDS GAVE
DANIELS CONFI-
DENTAL SPEECH
Senator Admits He Furnished Interstate
Commerce Commissioner with
Cummins' Address.

Washington, Jan. Ex-senator New
land acknowledged to the Senate yester,
day that it was he who furnished to In,
terstate Commissioner Daniels, while il
vas yet held confidential, the executive
session speech of Senator Cummins at.
lacking the commissioner confirmation
Opponents OF Commissioner Daniels con.
tend that by having possession of the
speech he was enabled to prepare a re-
ply.
After the statement OF Senator New
lands the Senate went into executive
session to consider the resolution OF
Senator Norris TO investigate the dis
closure of the speech.
Senator Newlands said he had no
'idea that the rule of secrecy would be
involved to prevent an appointee of the
president, under consideration of this
body, from receiving information re-
garding the objections urged to him" He
also explained that he had Immediately
told Senator Cummins of his action and
had also advised the Senate in executive
session. Senator Cummins said he sim
cerely hoped the penalty of expulsion
from the Senate, prescribed in tn rules,
for violating confidence of an xecu-
tive session, would not be involved
against Senator Newlands.
When Senator Norris called up his res
olution senators were quick to see the
significance of his action, as he is one of
a group which for long time have
sought to amend the rules so that all
nominations should be eonsiderd in open
session. Senator Newland's acknowledge
ment was received good-naturedly among
Republican and Democratic senators
alike

Kreisler Pleads for Simple Things in Life

| Fritz kreisler the great violinist, who
plays in Burlington Jan. 20, is not only
an advocate of the simple life, but prac-
tees what he breaches. Although his
earnings are enormous he lives much
more simply than most men who make a
tenth of his income. In an interview in
Musical America" last spring, Mr..
Kreisler discussed his belief in this re-
spect. He said:
ut is the attitude of the majority of
the human family toward the question
Of living in its relation to financial pros
perity. ! suppose it is because of the So
cial conditions that man. whether he is
a musician or engaged in some other
walk of life, thinks that it is incumbent
upon him the moment he increases his
earning capacity to increase in direct
proportion his expenditures for place
to live and things to eat.
81 believe the average man, if he
would only tell the truth, can get fully
as much happiness out of the simple
things of life. For instance, if / enjoy
eating baked apple with cream and
can get this dish prepared as | like it in
one of those clean-looking white-tiled
restaurants, of which you have so many
here in New York and which are very in
expensive, is there any good reason why
! should not go to that restaurant for
baked apple? Why must ! go to very
expensive hotel and pay three or four
times as much for the same article just
to maintain appearances; just because
am supposed to have greater earning
power than the majority of people who
do patronize those restaurants?
Another thing which brings this home
to me with peculiar force at the present
time is that every time | go to an ex-
pensiye restaurant, am spending mon

Washington, D. c., Jan. 20.-Rep-

Whereas, Reports of alleged atroci-
ties, said to have been committed by
the invaders of Belgium, have been per-
sistently spread throughout the United

Whereas, the president of the United

Whereas, the United States has its

leak inquiry. The telegram declared I'm

he said, reflected on the House.

Miller, gin sending a message that is an

Mr.. Fitzgerald said he objected to "the

"Mr. Untermyer was retained to in

TWO DEAD IN MEXICAN
DESERT THOUGHT
TO BE ARMY filters
Indians Report Finding Bodies of Men at
Pool of Water Stripped of Clothes
By Bandits-New Search De-
layed BY Rain.

Calexico, Cal, Jan. 20--As soon as the
weather permits the three army aero
planes here to seek Lieut.. Col. Bishop
and Lieut.. Robertson missing army ayia-
tors, will fly to Laguna Prieta, where, it
is reported Indians saw the bodies OF
two men,
The report has aroused great interest
at Camp Beacon, and this will be the
first flight to be made by the aviators
here.
This is the first definite report the au-
thorities have received since the two
aviators were last seen Jan. 10. In case
this clue proves worthless the search of
the Sonora desert will be taken up from
Sierra Mayor.
A heavy rain is still falling on both
sides of the border, delaying the start of
the aviators.
the Gulf of California. The military au-
thorities say it is possible that Bishop
and Robertson met with an accident at
the point.
The Indians, whose story is credited by
army searchers, said that the two bodies
they had seen were lying in pool of
water and were clad only in undercloth-
ing. The country about Laguna Prieta
is wild and the fact that the Indians de-
scribed the bodies of the two as clothed
only in undergarments led to the fear
that Bishop and Robertson had fallen
into the hands of one of the many bands
of outlaws in the district
The search so far conducted by the two
parties. one on horseback and the other
in automobiles, has been greatly impeded
by the condition of the ground. Mem-
bers of both parties have reported that
it has been extremely cold and rainy
since last Saturday. As consequence
the ground was only half frozen and
soggy.
