years--nearly the whole of his
adult life. In his services he

Serious; Has Bronchitis.

By United Press
TUNIS, Africa, April 8. - The
Countess De Chambrun, sister of
Nicholas Longworth, is critically i'll
with bronchitis.
The countess was bitten by q
caterpillar on the eye five weeks ago
and her Illness developed into
bronchitis.
The bite was inflicted by a four
inch caterpillar while the countess
was asleep in an unScreened bed.
Serious Inflammation set in behind
the eye, and then blood-poisoning
developed. The bronchial trouble
came subsequently, brought on by
the countess general condition.
The American countess is the wife
of Count Jacques Adalbert De
Chamburn, who is American born.

Speakership, but promptly made
it again by force of his personal
ity much the same powerful office
it was in the days of Reed and
Cannon, though without the aid of
the old-time rules which made
their czardom easier.
Had Longworth been a more
Somber character, this achieve
ment would have been most
prominently linked with him.
But the good-fenow in him, the
play-boy singing, telling stories
playing the organ and the piano
in the drawing rooms Of Wash
ington, the endless anecdotes
these so fascinated the capital by
their contrast with the dull. ig-
norant. witless sun Of hack politi-
clans that Longworth probably will
have to wait for historians to fix
his rank as parliamentary fig
ure.
