Tarzan was annoyed; crowds irritated his

than when the Judge renders de-
cision, and he is more noticed than
all the rest of the lawyers combined.
When not speaking he sits behind a
big table, writing, lolling, whispering
or laughing, as the mood takes him.
Today he was chewing tobacco vigor-
ously while I watched him, and his
fat Jaws moved up and down, making
the flesh encasing them expand and
contract like India rubber. Bob In
gersoll likes tobacco, and his bump of
reverence is not large enough to make
him stop chewing during a court
session.
Ingersoll is a peculiar looking man.
His head Is as round as a common ball,
and it seems as though the Lord
forgot his neck when he put him
together. His big, round head is
fastened right down upon his shoul-
ders. And then his face! Bob Inger-
soil has curious face. His eyes are
blue and kindly, his forehead high,
and the top of his head bald. He has
a little nose which is slightly turned
upward, full cheeks, large mouth and
thick lips. He looks for all the world
like an over-grown boy, and it is
not unfair to say that he often acts
like one. Sometimes he puts his hands
into his pockets when he is speaking.
and he often makes a joke and laughs
at it with the audience.
It is a whole volume Of fun to see
Bob Ingerson laugh. His blue eyes
twinkle, his mouth twitches and his
face generally breaks into a smile. His
white teeth show, and then the fun
seems to 60 down into his body. He
laughs all over, from the fuzzy hair
of his bald head to the beefy calves
of his fat legs, his big stomach shak-
ing until the gold watch chain across
it seems to Jingle, and his whole frame
a personification of humor. Bob
Ingersol Is not rich, but he commands
good fees. A friend of his speaking of
his income yesterday said he supposed
it would sum up to $4,000 a year.
Ingerson believes he is getting the
good out Of his money. He lives well
here in Washington, entertains hand
somely and gives away q good deal
In charity.

Ex.Minister's Dole
Drain on Exchequer

MADRID.-The frequent changes
of government in Spain are not only
providing a long list of ex-ministers,
but a growing charge of some i'm
portance on the republics exchequer
Each ex-minister is entitled to pen
sion of 10000 pesetas a year (about
$4,000. Thus, 43 republican ex-min-
listers, in office within the last three
years, drawing their 10000 pesetas
each, represents 100000 pesetas the
treasury must pay out each year.
The number Of ex-ministers is
growing steadily. There have been
three governments so far this year,
and if the present rate is kept up.
Spain, by next Christmas, will have
had IL cabinets. Fortunately for the
republics funds, some ministers are
carrying on from cabinet to cabinet,
but each fall of the government sup
plies a little crop for the pensions
list.
Senor Don Salvador de Madariaga,
former Spanish Ambassador at Wash
ington, lost his portfolio Of education
after possessing it for about seven
weeks, but he will receive his dole Of
10000 pesetas a year. There are
others among the 43 ex-pinisters who
occupied their ministries for less time
than Senor Madariaga.

country under the name of an actress.
Herr Most is a short slim blond
with a frame as badly Joined as that
of Caliban, and a face twisted about
as though one-half of it was trying
to look over one shoulder, while the
other half strove to smile over the
other. He has forehead which
slopes back at an angle of As degrees,
and his whole Uranium is an anomaly.
His eyes are blue and strained, his
twiSted-up features are covered with
red-brown whiskers, and his hair Is
combed straight back from the cow
licks which terminate the inclined
plane of his forehead.
He came here this week and was
snubbed at the outstart, though he
finally got some men to hear him on
the second day. I met him in the
little second-class hotel where he is
staying and had a word with him.
He told me the American laws were
as severe as those of other countries
against such men as he, but that the
socialist movement was not dangerous
enough yet to command notice. He
evidently had faith in his cause, and
watched him curiously as heard
his enthusiastic nihilistic utterances
for the destruction of capitalists and
the elevation of paupers.
Old Augsburg, in Bavaria, is the
native city of the anarchist. He told
me that Austria and Germany had
kept him in prison for several years.
He ought to be there now, and it
seems to me that American liberty
is a little too liberal when 1t permits
such a firebrand as he to blaze with

ducking pond.

What kind of a man is Ben
Butler socially?" I asked
He is jolly good fellow. He likes
to talk and is full of anecdotes
"reminiscences and witty sayings He
likes the ladies, and, homely as he
is. they are fond of him. He is an
adept in the art of complimenting,
and he pays them the most delicate
favorS in the most courtly way. He
can be sarcastic too if he likes. His
tongue is a weapon which he knows
how to use, and which he does use

know. Speaking Of his sarcasm, once
Chief Justice Gray interrupted him
when he was stating legal point
saying, Mr. Butler. that is not the
law Old Ben replied, Your honor
it was the law until you spoke His
combination of sarcasm and compli-
ment has no comparison in the Su-
preme Court"
Ben Butler continued this gentle
man, has a wonderful memory. and
I have heard him repeat pages of
the statutes in a law case without
a single reference to a book He is
a great student, too. His house at
Lowell contains one Of the best gen.
eral Libraries in Massachusetts,. Butler
likes the classics, and he still keeps
up their study. He is a great lover
of Byron and can repeat the greater
part of his poems. He knows well
the inside personal history Of the men
of today; you cannot mention a
public man on whom he is not well
posted"
How about his legal ability?"
1T is of the best. Queer and ego
tistic in the court room, his strange
questions always seem to have an
object. and as a cross-examiner he
is unexcelled.'
Has Butler any real hopes of being
nominated for the Presidency"
i think there is no doubt about
it. But there is little prospect of his
success. The South would refuse to
support him. Still, there are many
good points about Ben Butler, and
one of the best Of them is his money.
I believe him to be worth $10,000,000;
he would give half of all he has to
crown his career by four years in the
White House. Butler would spend
his money if he were nominated,
which is more than Sam Tilden and
William H. English did"

and disarmament is adjourned to the
Greek Kalends, but the status quo
seems safer than it has been since
StreSsemann died and Locarno faded.
And the architect of the new situa-
ton is Hitler The third Reich was
to restore the glorieS of the Holy
Roman Empire. 1t has had to- resign
its program to recover the eastern
territory of the recent German En-
pire. Hitler moreover has not only
botched his own game, but ruined
Mussolini's. The Duce wanted to play
with Germany. He was eager to set
up a counterbalance to the French
system. But when Hitler put the
British off with the cold pogroms"
and alienated Russia by Communist
persecution, when he finally set out
for Vienna and not for Paris or War
saw, the Duce had to step in and
sacrifice his own freedom of choice.
The German revolution today seems
to be losing its momentum. 1t has
succeeded in building up obstacles on
every front and no less formidable
difficulties at home. Perhaps we shall
not have war by harvest time, after
all, as people confidently said in the
Spring. Perhaps Hitler won't last.

notably so those people connected with
the Government employ. Damocles,
though dying with hunger lost his
appetite when, with most bounteous
table before him, he saw just over
his head hanging by a hair a sharp,
two-edged sword. Young women, old
ladies, dependent on their situations
for their bread, cannot live peace
fully nor sleep soundly when they
know that the next movement of Gov
ernment caprice may turn them from
their employ.
1t is this uncertainty of Office
tenure which makes young ladies of
25 have the wrinkles of 40, which
puts anxious looks into their eyes and
silvers their hair 20 years before its
time. There are more young women
and men in Washington with gray
hair than in any city I have ever
visited, a fact always noted by OBJ
servant strangers. Faces, fresh and
blooming are crowned by locks of
silver, and the gray-haired people of
Washington are the finest looking of
all its population.
But it is not the clerks alone who
look faded-nearly every face is SO.
The life of the Capital naturally pro-
duces it. The hurry and furry of
society among the rich and noted,
the struggle for a livelihood among
the poor and the hard living all the
time makes the difference.

didate for Governor of Massachusetts,,
is the beSt-advertiSed man in the
United States. He understands the
business better than P T. Barnum,
and he calls all classes into the work
of making him famous At the pres
ent time, no name, not even except
ing that of President Arthur, appears
oftener in the papers, and the last
dodge caps the climax. During the
past week nearly all the preachers
in Massachusetts, have been con-
demning him in their pulpitS. The
Boston papers which I have received
today contain remarks concerning
him from ministers who should know
better. The Rev. James Freeman
Clarke, the author of THE Great
Religions" and one of the most
eminent thinkers of the country. calls
him the "Bramble King; says he Is
politically wicked, and accuses him
Of seeking the gubernatorial Office to
use it for private ends and selfish
purposes. He says Gov. Butler is a
wicked ruler, and that while he rules
the people will surely suffer.
The gray-haired DR.. c. A. Bartol
is the severest of Buffers critics. He
says Butler prefers notice, however
critical, to neglect. Silence he would
hold a fate the hardest and worst"
"It Is strange" said leading Bos-
tanian today, that the wealthy Ben
Butler should be the poor mans can
didate in Massachusetts,, but it is SO.
He is worth as many millions as Ia
Dor; he has one of the finest yachts
that floats, the furniture of which is
finished in mahogany and rosewood,
and he owns at Lowell, Mass, an ele-
CANT home, filled with pictures,
bronzes and bric-a-brac that cost a
small fortune. He travels like an
artistocrat. A special train takes
him from home to Boston, and he
never makes a speech unless his port
ly form is clothed in steel-pen coat,
and his buttonhole filled with a ripe
red rose. No one knows what Ben
Butler Is worth. Nero. when he gov
erned Rome, had hardly Buffers for
tune in his treasury. He has rail.

Certainly there is nothing tangible
upon which to base such a hope. At
least for the moment national social
ism is in reverse outside national
frontiers as well as within. And Rus
sia is back in the game and uncom-
promisingly hostile to Germany. Thus
the truce of necessity on Germanys
part will have to be prolonged. And
while Germany is striving to rearm
herself with ever shrinking resources,
France will be equipping the Soviet
Army.
If there were Russo-Japanese war
this year the odds might shift back in
favor of Germany and an early war
in Europe, but for the moment there
is calm on the Eastern front, too.
One more Summer at least, not Of
peace but of truce. That is the pres
ent outlook. But it will be at best an
armed truce.

Lei Industry Faces
Trouble Over Code

HONOLULU, Hawaii.-One of Homo
lulus picturesque industries is having
a hard struggle to qualify for the
N. r. A. Blue Eagle because of the
difference between fresh" and per
ishable" in describing its own peculiar
class of merchandise The industry
is the lei industry-the lei being the
floral circlet or wreath with which
every newcomer is greeted and every
departing friend is sped The lei,
known all over Polynesia, is the basis
of one of Hawaii's most beautiful GUS
toms, and on steamer days" it is not
unusual to see several hundred pas
sengers arriving or sailing with an
aggregate of perhaps a thousand dol
lars worth of flowers around necks
and shoulders.
Any industry that runs into several
thousands of dollars a week is a sub
stantial industry. and so the Ha-
waiian women and girls who con-
stitute the "lei sellers" decided to
regulate their business along N. r. A.
lines. But their hearing ran onto the
rocks of controversy when declared
that it was impossible to fix point
at which fresh" leis became stale"
leiS.
A lei of flowers picked the same
day the lei is sold sells for approxi-
mately twice that of a lei of flowers
a full dav old The lei woman do
clared that it was impossible to
stabilize prices unless stale leis were
kept out of competition with fresh
leis, or sold at the same price, but
the N. r. A. policy is to allow perish
able" merchandise to be sold for what
the seller can get. The hearing of
voluble flower sellers was adjourned
with slight hope that the industry
can agree on code of ethics that
involves the degree of freshness of
flowers.

''Restoring of Israeli
Lands Man i'm Asylum

ROME, Italy.-Restoration Of the
Kingdom Of Israel, according to bib
lical specifications, has been indef1-
nitely postponed by the action of
carabinieri on the Italian frontier
near Ponte Chiasso. The carabinieri
declined to allow a gentleman who
gave his name as Michael, prince of
princes, to cross the frontier on his
way to Geneva to place the matter in
the hands of Sir Arthur Henderson,
president Of the Disarmament Confer
ence.
The agitated traveller warned his
detainers that the world would have
no peace until his mission was full
filled, but the carabinieri did what
they could for peace by conveying the
prince to a mental asylum. He has
been identified as Luigi Stiyanin, .
tailor from Milan.
