This unique hostelry in the East Sixties has
for landlord man of heart and most whn-
sical Imagination, as should have to deal
successfully with such temperamental
clientele, His success lies perhaps in the fact
that he looks at things from the point of view
of his patrons. For instance, reference was
made to the elegant coach and magnificent
horse standing before the portal of rhotel des

what they are looking for nowadays is speed.
Most of them are used to motors and care

one for them-place out at Great Neck-well,

we will use the horse. He's prize winner

them and to keep up to date"
Indeed, everything upon which the eye
alghted in the hotel lobby and reception
room carried out doggcd determination to
please. Every picture on the walls was dog

ancestral oil portraits Of dogs, photographs of
dog celebrities, steel engravings of dogs. On
the mantcls, statuettes Of dogs. No doubt in
the hotel library were many waggish tail
and jolly doggerel.

you came in you noticed that exqisite Pom

These were not biting remarks
exchanged between the Belgian police dog and
the Pekingese at the carriage entrance Of the
snappy little conversation similar to the one
their respective owners were exchanging at the
other end of their leashes:
"Why, hello, Betty! Glad to see you again.
When you left the old kennel you went West,
didn't you?"
'sTeddy, old dear; it's real bark to see you
again! How you have grown! Should hardly
have recognized you. We're just in town for
a week. Do come and see me. Come for tea"
Where you staying?"
"At the Hotel for Dogs. See-there's the
hotel bus waiting for me! So long!"

waved gay farewell to the handsome Belgian
on the platform.
Betty was not putting on any dog when she

veterinary's establishment, but a real honest

equipped with all the elegances and luxurious
appointments the sophisticated taste demands

ed complaint against Judge Lands
with the department OF justice. be-
cause Of the judges remarks in the
case Of the Ottawa, ILL.,, bank clerk,
accused Of embezzlement of bank
funds, but Senator Dial said all
the facts he had obtained were
from the newspapers.
The. committee adjourned while
members were about to engage in
an off-hand discussion of the pro-
priety Of Judge Lands conduct.
Blocks Justice.
Washington, Feb. 21.-United
Press. AT the hearing Welty said:
These judges are appointed dur
ing good behavior. Who shall say
when the behavior is not good? The
people cannot remove them. The
peoples only hope is the house Of
representatives who, under the
government, can prefer charge"
Welty then went into detail and
quoted several other impeachment
cases to back up his assertion that
Judge can be removed even if he
has not violated a law directly. At
torney General Palmer in a recent
opinion to Welty said Lands has
violated no law.
His appointment was a plain
attempt to block justice" said
Welty. Organized baseball named
him in the hope that the action
would stop the prosecution of the
Chicago White Sox players indict-
ed for gambling and the $4,000
antitrust suit brought by the old
Federal league against the National
and American leagues"
Several members of the commit
tee indicated by their questions
that they saw no grounds for
Welty's charges. Chairman Vol
stead and Welty clashed several
times, each saying that he had been
insulted by the other. Volstead at
one time told Welty to stop max
ing a speech and give us. some
facts"
Representative Hustled, New
York, however, declared it was
Outrageous" for Lands to be re-
ceiving a salary of So, 500 while re-
naming a federal Judge, but indi-
Gated that he did not believe suf-
ficient evidence had been given for
an impeachment.
Il am sympathetic with any
movement to force Judge Lands
to resign one Of the Jobs" said
Hustled. But 1 want to find a legal
basis for the charges"
Representative Boies, Iowa, in
terrupted: I'm my opinion we
want to find legal way to remove
this fellow"
No one was in the committee to
represent Landis although Repre-
sentative Gallivan, Massachusetts,,
ex-Harvard baseball player, said
he expected to defend baseball il
necessary. He added that he was
not representing Lands.

FURNACE OF BANK
BLOWS DOOR OPEN

The janitor Of the State Bank of
East Moline visioned a bold and
daring robbery, at least it could
be nothing smaller than fire, with
damage that would run up into the
thousands, for. somewhere in the
basement Of the building, sometime
in the wee sma' hours of the morn
ing, he was startled by an explo-
sion accompanied by q volume Of
black smoke, issuing from the
lower regions. He Immediately
telephoned the East Moline police
station and fire department, who re-
sponded without delay to discover
that the disturbance was caused by
nothing more or less than the fur
mace Of the building, which, filled
with gases. had exploded and blown
the doors Of the furnace open. No
damage was caused to the build

advantage In the wheat market to-
day with tho trade giving atten-
ton to knowledge that the visible
supply was only 40 per cent Of an
average and that exports to date
were much above normal. Besides.
houses with seaboard connections
were buyers. The tariff situation
and the crop outlook tended also
to stimulate demand. Opening

$1.71H. and May $1.s1h to $1.62h.
were followed by a material further
Advance, and then moderate reac-

siye buying. Prices closed steady,

Liz to 1.72, and May 1.61E to 162.
