SESSION REALLY SECRET
Wife Of Congressman Learns Of
Strict Rules at Capitol.

One cannot send for pocketbooks
and such things into the Senate cham
Der when that body is in executive
session, discussing the affairs of state
in secrecy behind closed doors.
This developed yesterday when Con
gresham and Mrs. Zihlman. of Cum
berland, who had been watching Sen.
ate proceedings, were obliged to leave
the galleries quickly when an execu
tive session was announced. In the
haste Mrs. Zihlman forgot her pocket
book and other articles. Doorkeepers
and even Secretary Baker, of the Sen.
ate, were appealed to in vain. They
said while the Senate was sitting in
secret session not even a messenger
could be sent in.
The Zihlmans returned to Cumber
land while the executive session was
on ana later Secretary Baker forward,
ed the missing articles by parcel post

fore the National Geographic Society

terday, "and these Americans VINO are
so helpful are plain Missouri mules.
Roads, made necessary by the mill
tary campaigns, have been built In
the mountains where 1t was almost
impossible even for the hardest Al
pinist to penetrate before in winter
ana up these roads these missouri
mules haul guns. food. and high ex,
plosfye shells Just as mules haui
things anywhere else.
These roads are triumphs OF en-
cheering skill and the men who &C
finally dung them are italians who nave
heIped to construct such things as the
Roosevelt dam. the Croton dam. ano
other great engineering marveis IN
America. Many of the engineers In
charge also have had American train
ing. The man who blew OH the top
OF the Col pf Lana and who ran the
famous gallery which enabled the
italians to take Goritza is graduate
of Cornell University.
There are places which even almost
superhuman engineering skill can
not construct roads and these peril
Gus stretches are accomplished oy
means of an aerial tramway. tele-
fericas the Italians call them.
Mr.. Irwin was probably the frst
American war correspondent to wit
ness this fghting in the clouds and
highly commends Italian army hos
