LXXVII-Eve Humiliated

 He went back on the s:l5," said Mary, giving last delft touch to the oenterpiece
 How do you know? And-and why didn't he leave word for me? Wasn [ there any message?' Eyes tones were sharp. The sweet, old-fash- toned role slipped from her like a mantle. Why wasn't l informed at once7"

 "Oh, no! l shouldn't put it in that way!" Mary was not bit afraid of Eve. He overlook me, accidentally. That was all"
 Eve bit her lip This pretty, quiet girl--she was always poaching some how on Eve's preserves. 1t really was too irritating! Julian had actually gone away without word or message!
 When is he coming back? Tomor- row?" It was humiliating to be forced to question her guardians paid secretary, but 1t must be done.
 He didn't tell me-" answered Mary simply. "He-and his Cingalese serv- ant''--here she gave a tiny shudder-

IMAGINE SCRUBBINC YOUR TEETH WITH
 SANDPAPER!

You say you wouldn't do 1t. of course But as mater of fact you do as bad every day. That is, if you use ordinary gritty tooth pastes and powders, which not only wear away the enamel on your teeth, allowing de- cay to set In, but which also leave your gums raw and bleeding.
 People everywhere are beginning to see the real dangers in abrasive tooth pastes and are turning to liquid den- tifrices. Perhaps the most satisfactory of these is Steroline. A few drops of Steroline on your tooth brush each day keeps your mouth and teeth in perfect condition. Being liquid Ster- oline reaches and cleanses out all the hidden crevices that tooth pastes never reach. Keeps your mouth cool and sweet. heals bleeding gums, and acts as real preventive against the many diseases contracted through the mouth, Get a bottle from your druggist today-Adv.

 The ablest speech against the res olution was made by perhaps the Ablest democrat in the House, Repre- sentative Finis Garrett of Tennessee, who, in the absence of Representative Claude Kitchln. is democratic leader. He charged the republican committal 10 resolution declaring peace at any price was established last session for three reasons;
 "First-Envy of and enmity toward the then chief executive, Mir. Wilson. Proceeding upon a predicate of pas sion and hate, the majority was will ing then to go to any length in the effort to humillate and discredit him. How narrow and restricted was its state.
 Second. the majority's inabil ity. moral and intellectual. to sub init a substitute for his handiwork.
 "Third-The determination to c1inch for the repu bliean party at the November election, the vote of all those elements in America who hav- ing but recently descended from for eign blood had their affections placed upon the aspirations of their kinsmen abroad rather than upon the interests and hopes of America"
 After stating that there was some doubt as to why the United States participated in the war but declaring that there should be done, Mir. Garrett affirmed that no man would contend that America fought for interned German ships or It's interests In se- questered German property all. he said that the peace resolution re- served to America from the world conflict.
 "As an American congressman he exclaimed in conclusion, T must be excused from aiding in such de- nouement"
 Vote of Southern States
 The vote of three southern states is perhaps typical of all southern states,
 Alabama voted as follows: Against the resolut Bowling, McDuffie, Oliver and Rainey; for, AL mon, Huddleston, Tyson and Steagall, the last named having been absent but paired for the resolution.
 Georgia voted as follows; Against the resolution, Bell, Lee and Wright; for, Crisp. Landlord, Larsen, Over street, Park Upshaw, Vinson, and Brand the latter having been absent but paired for the resolution. Wise did not vote.
 South Carolina voted: Against the resolution, Byrnes, McSwain, Steven son and Stoll, the latter having been paired against the resolution; for, Dominick, Logan and Fulmer.

AMERICAN COMPANY
 FIGHT COMMISSIONS
 DECISION ON EXPRESS

Montgomery. June 1s.-(SpeciaL)- The fight between the American Railway Express company and South eastern Express company over through rates for shipments orig mating on one line for delivery on the other, passed from the public service commission to the federal court today when the American Railway Express company applied to the federal court here for an inter- locutory injunction preventing the commission from enforcing its order of June 8 requiring the companies to establish through routes and rates, and obtained a temporary in- junction preventing the enforcement of the order pending the considera- ton of the case by three judges oi the federal court.
 Under the order of the commission the express companies were required to establish such a system as would permit joint routes and rates. which would have the effect of dividing the revenue obtained by the company at the point of origin with the other company which made the delivery.
 In granting the temporary i'm junction, Judge Henry D. Clayton, permitted the express company to establish a special supplement to It's tariffs published about the time the competing company began business. The public service commission had expressly forbidden the American company from establishing the sup plement pending final decision and it's final order of June 8, rejected for all time the special supplement and required the establishment of joint routes and rates throughout the two systems. The American com pany. in its application for the in junction contended that this would require it to divide it's revenue with the other company.

LYNCH WILL SEE

New Yorker Will Try for Chance
to Win Back Bantam
Title
ASHER IS COMING HERE
BY LOUIS II. JAFTE

Among those present at the Madison
Square Garden, New York City to-
morrow night will be a tall, lean,
hungry looking" kid to see Pete Her
man defend his bantam crown against
Johnny Buff, who admits being
Americas best fyweight. The hungry
aspect of the aforementioned skinny lad
will not be for want Of food-rather for
the feeling that he would like to be In
there within the twenty four foot
squared circle in the place Of Buff.
Seated at the Gardens ringside when
Herman and Buff are finging fists in
the general direction Of each other
will be this "envious" youngster in the
person of Joe Lynch. Joey, you know,
up until n few months ago was the
bantam champion, having deposed Her
man at the Garden in New York last
December. However, Petey came right
back this summer and redeemed his lost
laurels at Ebbets Field in Brooklyn.
Now Lynch has been on Herman's
trail TO give him another chance to cop
the crown of the 11S-pounders, and in
the event Of third championship tilt
between them Tex Rickard no doubt
will be the promoter. Nothing so far
has been done about another Herman
Lynch contest, still the latter will begin
training in few weeks 50 that in case
something is done the narrow New
Yorker will be prepared.
While on the subject of bantam
weights, it might be interesting to

the case of q heavyweight champion
who was SO far beyond all competition
that he had to give up his trade.
For there were no more customers IN
sight. There was no one who could
even be considered as worth test. :,
This man was Jim Jeffries. Around
1903 Jeffries outclassed all the field by
a margin fully as wide ms Dempsey out
classes all competition today. The Can-
fornia bear had cleaned out the reserva-

Dempsey today Ia as supreme as JEFF

has no competitor worth while in sight.
This condition may last for only year
