invited to her home to spend the eve
ming. About $50 the guests were es-

LABOR PARTY BEING FORM
ED IN CHICAGO.

Nearly 1000 delegates assem-
bled III Chicago to be present at
the opening Of a convention call
ed to form a national labor
party. The delegates were SUM
moned by John Fitzpatrick, Pres
Ident Of the Chicago Federation
Of Labor, and his associates in
the labor movement in the Mid
die West. The convention is being
called without tha approval Of
Samuel Gompers, President of
the American Federation Of La
Dor. The aim Of the new party in
to overthrow the present Repub
Hcan and Democratic parties and
to secure the convention as Tenn
porary Chairman, said that the
party would probably adopt
platform embracing public own
ershlp Of railroads and most of !
the other big industries. It is re-
ported that Governor Lyon J.
Frazier Of North Dakota is to be
endorsed for President on the
Labor Party s ticket, and that
either Fitzpatrick or Duncan Nc

THE DEMOCRATIC LEADER
SHIP FIGHT.

Owing to the recent death Of
the Democratic leader in the Sen
ate, Senator Thomas S. Martin
OF Virginia, a contest has been
started for this important post
The principal candidates are
Senator Hitchcocn, the acting
leader, and Senator Oscar Under
wood Of Alabama. Both are ex-
ceptlonally strong men and both
are strongly supported, and there
is likely to be a sharp fight. The
important question in the matter
is, however, as to whether tho
PRESIDENT will exert his influence
IN behalf Of one or the other Of
these contestants. The treaty SIT
uatlon may cause the President
10 90 this, and in that event il
may be that he will find It wise
to favor the selection as Demo-
cratic floor leader Of some person
other than Senator Hitchcock in
view OF the unsuccessful efforts Of
MIR. Hitchcock in connection with
treaty ratification and the fur
fher fact that his attitude and
statements during the recent
treaty fight would probably in
terfere with the effectiveness of
any further efforts which he
might make to secure concessions

At Least He Was There.

When he was minister of the in

aries of his department precise Office
hours which were to be vigorously
observed. One day, early in the af-

Mr.. Winter, and said;
"Let us take a turn in the bureaus"
Obviously his command had had lit

found empty. At last, in nook un-

FELT SOLDIER SPOKE TRUTH
No Doubt Colonel Blank, in His Heart,
Realized Just How Tough He
Did Look.

Colonel Blank, who had been such
a tartar at all inspections that his
name was byword in his regiment,
was in the thick of the Argonne fight
ing and for six days was unable to
shave. For six days he was unable
to pry the mud from his clothes or
rake it from his hair. And in this I'M
familiar state he was hailed at the
end of the sixth day by a doughboy
who seized a moment of leisure to
shave by a mirror hung on a knife
stuck in a tree.
'tHey, there, Buddie!" the doughboy
shouted. do you know you look like

Inherited Stature.

It is indicated by research that
while short parents tend on the aver
age to have short children, they may
and frequently do transmit character
istics which lack the shortening ele-
ment and have tall children. On the
other hand, children Of tall parents
are always tall. The offspring Of two
very short or short parents are more
variable in stature than the offspring
of two very tall or tall parents. Also,
whereas the offspring of two very
short or short parents tend, on the
average, to be less short than the
parents, the offspring of very tall or
tall parents do not tend to be less tall.
Not only is stature as a whole in
herited, but also, and even more clear
ly, each segment of stature, such as
neck, length of torso. thigh and fore
leg. And the inheritance Of the length
Of these segments follows the same
law as does the length Of stature as a
whole.

this story:
"a congressman had prepared what
he considered was an epoch-maklng
address and was on tenter hooks to
deliver it. He appeared to be more
interested in his speech than he was
in his bill. His bill, however, was a
good one, and Speaker Cannon was
trying to help it along. There were
only few moments left in which to
do business and the man with the
speech finally got Uncle Joe riled.
