a psychic, but 1t sometimes gives one
discomfort, as in the case Of the Rus

There are hard.boiled and material

there are. persons of spirituality and
nerves who see ghosts. Every old

of Seward and the arbitrary, despot-
ism of Cameron"
Farther in the book Mahoney
writes: II am one, sir, of many hun
dreds OF victims of the despotism and
the arbitrary power of which you
have become the willing, servile and
pensioned tyrant." AS incidents of
his Imprisonment in the Old Capitol
he tells of the murder of two prison
ers. He tells that Jesse w. Wharton,
son of DR.. Wharton of Prince Georges
County. was shot and killed by a
guard, Harrison Baker, 91st Pennsyl-
Vania Regiment, and that the guard
was ordered to fire by Lieut.. Mulligan.
Mahoney says Wharton was shot
while he had his head out of win
dow of the prison. Mahoney tells that
Henry Stewart, % years old, son of
DR.. Frederick Stewart of Baltimore,
was killed by a sentry belonging to
the seth New York Volunteers. He
writes that Stewart paid the sentry
$50 to let him escape; that the sentry
took the money and then killed the
prisoner while trying to escape.

1t took an hour, during which Elsa
sobbed without intermission, but at
the end Cyril, trying not to look
pleased, jotted down the magic num-

Dinner will be over--We might

THERE was no doubt about the
apartment which they entered
being the right place. Every square
inch available was covered with holly
and evergreen, with red bells and
red wreaths. Even the guests seemed
holly-hung and scarlet-belled. Aunts
and uncles and all kinds of cousins,
even as Elsa had prophesied, swarmed
over the place. Though the dinner
was over, the tree ceremonies were
still in full blast, and the recalcitrant
cousin somehow made his peace with
Elsa, while a scarlet Santa Claus, so
much masked that he continually
CROPPED, kept on distributing presents.
Yvonne watched. Every one of
these gifts was received with a shout
of acclaim and applause. AS Miss
Caroline Claude might have regarded
critically the flash of a Christmas

the Kansas farmer is not the only

For nearly 20 years the Kansas

That was the salary fixed for
them by the trainers Of the old
Wyandotte constitution-s3 and
mileage.
The first legislatures that assem-
bled under the Wyandotte consti-
tuition set examples OF thrift which
were impeccable.
Some Of their members were
known to have saved as much as
500 out Of their salaries to carry

paragons.

TOMORROW
Extras In Alaska
Battle Director

George Melford, who directed
Rocking Moon" the Metropoli-
tan production which shows at the
Strand Theatre tomorrow, did not
realize that while in Alaska
shooting" scenes for the picture
he would encounter greater diff
Guilty in securing extras" for
the scenes called for in the script.
Two days after the company ar
rived in juneau, Mr.. Melford sent
out a call for one hundred and
twenty-five persons to appear in
few scenes. He instructed his
business manager to have the peo-
pie at the wharf at 9 a. m.
Next day-at IL :30-his sex
tras" arrived. Needless to say,
Melford secured the scenes, but it
required a day to get them. And
then he learnd-
They are bashful, slow to ac-
ton, not really in need of extra
money, not anxious to work at all,
exceptionally shy of the motion
picture camera, and they do not
all trust many people.
However, when the company
went farther up the coast and
needed more extras, Melford put
to use the little arts he had heard
about and lost no time at all. In
fact, several Aleuts assisted in
building some of the sets which
were necessary, and without pay.
Rocking Moon" brings to the
screen a new Alaskan Alaska
of flowers and sunshine, of ro-
nance and grandeur. Lilyan Tash-
man and John Bowers have the
leading roles in the picture and
they are capably supported by
Rockcliffe Fellowes, Laska Win
ter, Luke Cosgrave, Eugene Pal
lette and Evelyn Selbie--as well
as more than five hundred blue
foxes. For the story hinges
around blue fox farming for which
Alaska is fast becoming famous.

TO deprive her of her dover right
in certain real estate, Mrs. Shipley
declares that on March 10. 1926,
her husband conveyed same to Mary

against the more liberal provisions
of the Senate bill, agreed to accept
the compromise provisions suggested
by the White House and later
written into the bill passed by the
House.
Steward says he does not look
for any modification or liberaliza-
ton whatever Of the bill passed by
the House. Unless the Senaste con-
ferees, headed by Senator Stanffeld.
agree to accept the bill passed by
the House, he believes retirement
legislation will fail.
Observers at the Capital today
were certain that Stewards. analy-
sis is correct. Representative Leh1-
bach. chairman OF the House Civil
Service Commute, 1t was pointed
out, was permitted to bring the re-
tiremen bill on the floor upon the
strict understanding that he would
permit no liberalizing amendments
to be forced on the House by the
Senate conferees. 1T
Lehlback is known to have given
hisp rornise to the Big Three of the
House, Floor eLader Tilson, Chair.
man Smell, Of the House Rules
Committee. and Speaker LongworIh.
This fact is generally known at
the, Capitol The Senate conferees,
in proposing b liberalization of the
bill in conference, are actually de.
Inanding that Lehlbach break his
promise to the House leaders.
The Senate conferees, having
made demands which the House
conferees are In no position 10
meet, are therefore put in the posi-.
ton now OF accepting the compro-
mise bill as passed by the House.
or OF taking upon themselves the
responsibility for failure Of, all re-
tirement legislation at this session
Of Congress.
Observers at the Capitol are con-
fident they do not want this re-
sponsibility. Neither are they be-
lieved to want the odium of yielding
completely and Internationally to
the House demands. So anxious
are the Senate conferees to yield,
according to one authority at the
Capitol today. that they would take
the House bill il Lehlbach would
yield them one single point to
save their faces.
eff I4ehIbach would consent to
having the bill printed on purple
paper. they would pass the House
bill, II was said.
