TWO JIMS HAVE WORDS

said Watson when asked by Reed
If he favored tax reduction.
THAT is not surprising. The
Senator stands on the dividing
line so often and so gracefully"
Reed answered.
"But generally get off on the
right side" said Watson.
THE fortunate side, at any
rate" returned Reed. THE SEN
ator says there is no way for
Congress to do the proper
things"
Watson defined his position as
"seeing no way to reduce taxes
this session. although 1 am in
favor of it." In further reply
to Reed, he said, II am not in
favor of the present plan"

PROMINENT DOCTOR
 DENIES CHARGES
Has Been Accused of Stealing Love Of An0ther'S Wife

New York. April 2 tPt--Dr. l.. Pierce Clark, 56 year old widower and prominent psychiatrist, today, through his attorney, denied he had stolen the love of Mrs. Constance 1a-Boteaux Sangree. as charged in q s250,000 alienation suit by her husband, the Rev. Carl M. Sangree, Congregational minister and public school teacher at Litchtield, Conn.
 Dr. Clark was arrested in his office here yesterday but was released after posting a s15,0oo surety bond.
 Mrs. Sangree was a patient Of pr. Clark with the consent of her hus- band. said Charles H. Strong, Coun- sel for the defendant "Dr. Clark did not alienate her affections,' Mir. Strong said, "because there was nothing to alienate. The plaintiff himself is responsible for the loss of any affection that may have existed"
 The Rev. Mir. Sangrce alleges that Dr. Clark saw Mrs. Sangree almost daily; that he made love 10 her; and that he proposed she divorce her husband and marry him, and that he offered her valuable presents. Suit was brought, Mir. Sangree said, after his efforts had failed to dissuade Dr. Clark from his alleged attentions to Mrs. Sangrec.
 The complaint says that the Rev. Mir Sangree and his wife lived hap oily at Cummington, Mass. and litchfield, Conn.,. until December, 1925.
 He is a former president Of the National Association for the Study of Epilepsy, the New York Neurological society, the New York Psychiatrical society, and the American Psycho- pathological association. He has written several books on neurology.

ELECTRICITY NOW TAKES OWN PHOTO
New Device Perfected by Gen.
 eral Electric Co.

Pittsfield. Mass, April q tP,- Electricity moving at 1S6,o0o miles a second. has not only been con- quered photography. but has been compelled to make its own picture, through a device known as the Du- four Cathode Ray Oscillograph per fected in the General Electric con- pany laborities here, it was an- nounced yesterday.
 Five years of research work on the effects of lightning on electrical apparatus with the aim Of prevent ing damage by such disturbances have been involved in the perfec- ton of the photographic device that operates on a millionth of a second, said General Electric officials.
 Engineers, knowing that electrons, which are unit particles of electric ity could be denected by either cleo tromagnetic Of electrostatic fields and that electrons. striking a photo- grapnlc Eim would produce the same photogra phic effect as that produced by a beam Of light, used this information in developing the new high speed recording device, it is said.
 The bombardment of electrons. which compose the Cathode Ray that sweeps back and forth with a speed of 12, ,00o miles per second across the photographic plate in vacuum chamber, is used to produce the photographic record.
 The behavior Of installations which may withstand overvoltage for a short time, and may break down after a number of applications, will be studied by this new instrument.

the Green Meadows. For one thing,
thew had heard Simba the Lion roar,
and that roar had shaken them all
NTH n great fear. Even great big
Buster Bear had lost his appetite
and hidden away in the deepest part
of the Green Forest while the circus
remained.
So when the word was passed
around that the circus had left the
Green Meadows there was great re.
ioicinG everywhere. Hooty the Owl
watched the long train of wagons car
rying the cages and tents and all the
other things to the train; and of
course he told everybody what he had
seen.
But Hooty didn't see everything,
and there was one most important
thing that he missed altogether. An
accident happened. Yes sir, an acci-
dent happened. You know, accidents
will happen even with a circus. One of
the wagon cages got stuck. Another
wagon turned out to go around 1t and
locked wheels with it. The horses be-
came frightened and before they could
be quieted both cages had been upset
At first it was thought no harm had
been done. Then it was discovered
by the circus men that the two cages
were empty. Somehow the doors had
been forced open.
OF course this didn't stop the circus.
Men were left to fix up the cages and
get them righted while the circus
went on. Had Hooty seen what hap.
pened he would have had some very
exciting news for the Green Forest.
Rut as he didn't see what happened.
no one knew anything about 1t.
