Claim of Milwaukee Socialist Rejec,

Gets Support From Mann.

Washington, Jan. 10.-Victor Bcr-
ger, Milwaukee socialist, reelected
from the Firth Wisconsin congression-
al district, after he had refused men,
bership in the house, because he gave
aid and comfort to the enemy" vas
denied his seat again today by a vote
of 228 to 6.
The house acted in a little more than
an hour after Berger had presented
himself to be sworn in. Chairman
Dallinger of elections committee,
which held Berger Ineligible the first
time, presented a resolution barring
Berger and reviewed the reasons why
Berger was excluded at the special
session, Representatives Mann, Re-
publican, Of Illinois, Voigt, Rcpubli-
can of Wisconsin and Sherwood, Dem
ocrat, of Ohio spoke in support Of
Berger's right to seat.

Berger has been made before Chair

lican, was defeated by Berger by a
mapority of 1906 votes in the special
election The committee previously
held Joseph P. Carney, Berger's op-
polcnt in the first election, to be in
eligible. Chairman Dallinger said to-
day that at the time of his first cleo
tion Berger was only under indict-
ment UNDER the espionage act, but
that he had been convicted before the
second election. This, he added, would
strengthen Bodcnstads' case.
Those voting to seat Berger were:

Sherwood, Democrat, Of Ohio and Sis

sentative SABBATH, Republican, of Hi

the vote that the house action was

that the record is practically COM
plete I shall be delighted 10 come
to your house party and take little
relaxation before sending the copy
TO the printer"
Ms. Stewart had on first reading
the letter glanced but hastily over
this passage. as she was not herself
particularly interested in genealogi-
cal matters. But now the mention
of the Stobridge family-that TO
which the indolent Nathaniel be-
longed-caught her attention and
then she recalled that Nathaniel
himself had dabbled more than cas-
ually in the study of his own and
allied family records.
We'll, I'll get them started on
.genealogy and perhaps they can find
enough in common 10 keep them
amused for the week end" And
rather reluctantly. for she still felt
that the temperaments of Nancy
and Nathaniel would be no more
sympathetic than oil and water, she
turned her attention to ordering the
wherewithal to keep her large fam
lily abundantly provisioned. seeing
that the old-fashioned four-poster
beds in her guest rooms were newly
made up with linen sheets and
otherwise making ready for the
house party
Nathaniel had at first shown only
a polite attention 10 Nancy when,
on the first day Of the party, Mrs
Stewart proposed that they be part

members of the party
She could not fail to notice that
conversation between them Jagged
as they wound their way after the
others through the freshly leaved
trees in the woodland. And you
aren't interested in tennis, either"
she heard Nancy say. laughing at
Mr.. Stobridge-"really you are most
hard TO talk to-"
"Oh. Nancy, dear" Mrs. Stewart
said, suddenly coming up to them.
II forgot to tell you that Mr.. Sto-
bridge is almost as enthusiastic
about genealogy as you are and he
is one OF the colonial Stobridges.
But l know you have found much

discussing anything so dry as fam

watch over the interests OF the other

1T is really most extraordinary"

as the party broke up to retire. Ito

that I have and now | am impa-

Nathaniel and Nancy actually did
continue their discussion and COM

how important II is 10 prove that

Nancy saying almost pleadingly.
Because II 1 don't my little volume
of Marbury records Will be almost
useless I was so sure that Hannah
Jane did marry Nehemiah Sto-
bridge. 1t was Nehemiah. I am sure.
and the rest OF the name was
blurred in the family Bible. There
was a Nehemiah Stobridge in that
country that he didn't marry"
Positively. my dear girl" she
heard Nathaniel reply. He was a
confirmed bachelor. There always
have been bachelors in the Sto-
bridge family. and I am true 10 type.
1t must have been some other Ne
hemiah."
That night after all the guests
had retired. Mrs Stewart heard low
voices in the hall below and only
slightly alarmed at a vague thought
OF burglars, she started to descend
the broad stairs Of the front hall.
Then she stopped short. For there
by the last lying glow OF the fire
that had been lighted TO drive off
the chill earlier in the evening sat
Nathaniel and Nancy. Nancy had
met him there to show him her
records.
You see, there is every reason
to believe that it was Nehemiah
Stobridge that my Hannah Jane
married"
But my dear little girl" Mrs.
Stewards pulses began to beat fast.
for words like that are dear to the
heart of a born match-make r-"my
dear little Nancy Nehemiah was an
old bachelor" Then Mrs. Stewart
