CUMM|NS EXPLAINS
PROPOSED RAIL BILL

WASHIN TON, Dec. AFTER
speaking three days. Senator Cum
Minis, chairman of the interstate COM
merce committee, concluded late today
a detailed explanation Of his railroad
bill designed to meet conditions with
the return of the roads to private
ownership and control.
Discussing the anti-st provision
of the measure as proposed by the
committee, Senator Cummins declared
there had been an industrious effort
to misrepresent the bill" He denied
that it interfered in any way with
railroad employees or officials who de-
sired to quit work. Emphasizing that
he was not opposed TO labor organiza
tions, Senator Cummins said the COM
mittee inserting the anti-strike sec
ton, felt that the civilization of
America cannot continue or endure
unless organized society can find some
plan to preserve industrial peace and
order"
President Wilson's message to con-
gress Tuesday. he declared, was di-
rect Endorsement Of the proposed legis-
lation.
Much sentiment developed today in
favor of curtailing general debate so
as to hasten the bill, but senate lead
ers said no plan of procedure had
been determined.

his daughter Uloba and making me the

Il declined his kind offer with pro-
fuse thanks Capt. Riddles said, ION
the plea that had to so home and see
my aged mother, as l was the only
son, and her sight was growing dim.
After many attempts to induce me to
change my mind the king presented
me with his pet wildcat Rararuzza,
which he kept in huge cage outside
the royal huts under the shade of the
giant palms.
Some idea of the springing quail
ties of the yellow striped golybosh
may be imagined when l tell you that
this widest of the wildcats can leap
into the air to catch flying fox and
eat it alive before returning to the
ground.

/ steamship off the ice made RararuzZa
so savage that she tried to eat up poor
Dingbad, my faithfuf servant, when
| he went TO clean the cage.
! by a stroke of good fortune | met
an old Sudan friend. the venerable
! Hakeem Afbab of Wadi Halfa, on the
Gold coast, who told me that the best
thing to do was to give the golybosh
powerful doses of hasheesh and feed
the animal on kuskus, a kind of mush
made from corn meal, as the drug
would make the wildcat believe it was
the choicest of raw meats"
Capt. Riddles added that the ex-
pertinent had succeeded beyond his
widest expectations, and the only
thing he was of afraid of now was that
his supply of hasheesh would run out
before he got his pet RararuzZa safely
to England.
While he stops in New York the
golybosh is being kept in an empty
garage belonging to friend of Mr..
Mizzle, who takes a personal interest
in the wildcat and talks to the animal
every morning in the Malagash
tongue. which he asserts is akin to
that of the Umdingo.
The faithful bingbad is fed up and
says he doesn't care who talks to
RararuZZa.

tee investigating the entire Mexican
situation plans to lay some of the re-
suits of his inquiry before the presi
dent if an interview IS granted. He
has been one of the bitterest oppon
ents Of the administration for its past
attitude toward Mexico. though his
resolution endorsed the stand taken in
the Jenkins case.
A recent charge by Senator Fall that
the Mexican ambassador, Ignacio Bo-
nillas, had attempted to spread boil
shevist propaganda in this country,
drew denial tonight from the am
bassador who said in a statement that
he had done nothing to encourage dis
turbing elements in the United States
or Mexico. The action OF the commit
tee in deciding to send representatives
TO see the president brought to a focus
much cloakroom speculation as to the
extent to which Mr.. Wilson's illness
has handicapped him in the discharge
of his official duties.

BETHEL. Conn, Dec. lis Sam
Reddy really Henry Bromley, Jr.? Can
two boys look so much alike that two
families of relatives each claim the
one who returned safe from the war?
Henry Bromley, Jr., was the only son
of lime burner of Bethel. His
mother was heart-broken when the
draft law took him away. When the
news came that Private Henry Brom-
ley, Jr., had been killed in action, the
mother swallowed poison and died.
Life has been pretty hard for Henry
Bromley, Sr. There were two little
girls left behind-Helen May, s, and
Jane Mary, 4. And there was Ted
young Henry Bromley's dog.
Word Received That Henry Is Living
Then, last spring. a youth came to
Danbury, two miles from Bethel
where young Bromley's aunt, Annie,
and her husband, Charles Bennett, live.
They recognized him as Henry Brom
ley, Jr He at first denied; then ad-
mitted he was Henry Bromley, and
told them how he had deserted from
the army in France. stealing dead
comrades identification tag, and call
ing himself Sam Reddy.
81 went to Danbury to see him, y
Henry Bromley told me, as he paused
in his work of putting the head in
a barrel of lime. 'He looked like my
boy, but acted queerly. When he said
he needed some money l gave it to
him But | am sure now that he isn't
my boy. He's Sam Reddy"s
The dog, Tied" very savage except
with members of the Bromley family,
is kept chained in the yard. When
young Bromley went to the Bromley
home the dog jumped on him and licked
his face in ecstasies.
Uncle Sam had been paying insur-
ance to the father of Henry Bromley,
and when the report reached the war
risk bureau that he was alive, an in
vestigation was begun.
Reddys Father Says It's His Son
When Reddy was confronted with
the evidence of Identification, includ
ing some scars and a photograph OF
Bromley. he admitted he was Bromley
Brought back to Danbury, he was
accosted on the streets as Sam
Reddy'' by Cooke Mead of New Canaan
Conn, who declared he had known the
man all his life. The prisoner declared
he did not know Meade.
John Reddy, a farmer of Norwalk
was notified, and asserted the boy
under arrest was his son. The young
man has been bound over to the SUI
perior court for hearing in Decem-
Der.

all there was to an egg was its fresh
ness.
Indeed there are a number of things
that come to mind whose inherent
value is determined by their fresh
ness.
. Aside from eggs there are sermons,
poems, horses, wives, babies and fish.
just to mention few off hand that
occur to us.
Just as nobody cares for a too long
departed fish; fish, say washed up
from the deep. and allowed to repose
on the beach for a few weeks; so sec
ond hand babies are never considered
as desirable as fresh ones.
Of course fresh children, especially

his par value is about two dollars
for his hide.
And yet a dead horse, aside from
the matter of freshness, is as much
a horse as he ever was. He has the
same number of teeth and hoofs and
spavins and such equine habilments,
and were it not for the slight void
caused by a departed freshness he
would be really valuable.
A poet who hands us Browning or
Bryant instead of fresh verse is not
considered much of a poet, and yet
these ancient lays are doubtless much
better than anything the poet will
! hatch in his little incubator

FRESHNESS OF AN EGG

An esteemed contemporary, be-
wailing the dollar egg market. says
that people demand fresh eggs instead
of cold storage eggs
Aside from its freshness the cold
storage egg is as good as the new
laid one, but people must have the
fresh egg whether there are any OF
not Thus the editorial lament.
Our idea always has been that about

those of your neighbor occasionally re-
quire the salt of discipline and the
brine of reprimand, but, generally
speaking, all of US prefer our babies
fresh like our fish.
When our dearly beloved pastor gets
to his declining years, and trots out
the sermons that he once dashed off
in his youthful vigor. we are likely
to hold a vestry session and send
forth a call for new pastor, who picks
his sermons each week fresh from the
tree of knowledge.
| Who cares about a horse unless he
| is fresh. A jaded horse is of no es-
pecial use, and if he be so passe that
crows perch on him unmolested, why
