diately to hie suite. In order to obtain a
much needed reet after a strenuous day.
Egyptians Are Impressed.
In the course of a conversation be
tween an educated Egyptian and the
correspondent of .the Associated Press
today, the Egyptian declared that Col
onel Roosevelt had learned more about
the Assout American mission In two days
than Lord Cromer had learned In 25
years.
This is' typical of the impression the
Egyptians have formed of Colonel Roose
velt's wonderful power of absorbing the
details of all subjects.

PHRENOLOGY HIS TOPIC
Xectnrer Quotes Huxley in Support
of Government Aid Plan.
At the meeting of the People's Forum
last night in Alisky Hall, Pofessor George
Morris gave-a. lecture on character read
ing through the study of phrenology. The
epeaker-referred to various ways .of judg
ing character by the way people walk,
oy the way they wear their hats and by
the expression of their faces. Phrenology,
Professor- Morris declared, was not only
&n interesting study but a useful one. He
juotedT Huxley, who, he said, expressed
the opinion that the Government should
employ experts in phrenology' to visit the
schools throughout the country and wher
ever by its use special talents were
found the Government should undertake
the education of such children where the
parents were not able to do so. Huxley,
the speaker said," had declared that the
waste of power in Niagara Falls was in
significant in comparison with the waste
of power lost by failure to develop the
special talents of young people.
At the conclusion of his address Pro
fessor Morris made an examination of
several persons in the audience: Preced
ing the lecture humorous recitations were
flven by Mrs. Morris. Miss Gove and
. D. Stevens. H. D. Wagnon presided.
CLOSING LAW IS IGNORED
Engene Cigar Stores Will Fight Or
dinance in Present Form.
EUGENE, Or., March 27. (Special.)
All the cigar stores in Eugene, ten
in number, were open this morning,
except one, a city ordinance to the con
trary notwithstanding. The ordinance
providing for the closing all cigar
stores, pool and billiard rooms and
card rooms on Sundays was passed a
month ago but did not become effective
until today.
The measure was resented by many
of the dealers and the week following
its passage a petition was circulated
among the business men asking to
have the ordinance amended so as to
allow no sale of cigars and tobacco.
Eight of the stores closed their card
rooms and pool halls. One opened its
pool and card room in the rear of the
tore as usual, and was cited to ap
pear in court tomorrow morning by.
Chief of Police Harrington.
A strong fight will be made against
the closing ordinance in its present
form.

Kansas City Frowns on Wife of
Man Who Slashed Lillis.
STAGE MAY BE HER REFUGE
Voting: Woman, Formerly Sought
After and Fond of Admiration,
Ostracised by Society in Home
City and Left by Husband.
KANSAS CITY, March 27. (Specials
Mrs. Jack Cudahy shows the strain she
has been under for the past few weeks.
The wife of the wealthy packer who; W
his own home, seriously cut the rich
banker. Jere Lillis, when he found him
in company with Mrs. Cudahy, is now
shunned by those who formerly sought
her out, and is avoided by the ones who
used to be among the first to seek her
favor.
Mrs. Cudahy has tasted this sort of
treatment before from certain circles of
Kansas City society. Indeed she has
never succeeded in establishing that close
intimacy with rome of the more cultured
people here that she desired. Her notoriety-seeking
has not appealed alto
gether to those who select their friends
according to standards other than wealth.
Her love of effect end her "staginess"
have made enemies for her as well as
friends.
Mrs. Cudahy still occupies the beautiful
home from which her husband has gone.
It is the general belief that his California
trip Is the beginning of a separation from
her forever. There have been rumors of
a reconciliation, but according to those
in as good a position as anyone to be
informed there is nothing to these tales
It is even hinted that Cudahy will take
this means of punishing her for what he
has declared to be her faithlessness. He
is a Catholic and the teaching of his
church on divorce, it is said, will be lived
up to strictly.
For a time Mrs. Cudahy's father, Gen
eraKCowin. remained with her, but his
business celled him away and then the
young worr.an was left to her lonely re
flections. It was in a spirit of bravado
during the first realization of her ostra
cism that she gave out the interview
about her fondness for the stage and Its
people. It is true that she has received
many offers from theatrical managers.
It would not surprise Kansas City much
If sooner or later shei accepted one of
these. She !s the sort of woman who
loves to be the center and to be admired.
Meanwhile she remains secluded with
her children, going nowhere, and receiv
ing only a few intimate friends. How
long she can stand this sort of life
causes much speculation.
HOUSES WELL INED UP
ronllnued from Page 1.)
riate this provision on the floor is not
known. He is said to be as strongly op
posed to it as ever, but- his- objections
are confined to the belief that the estab
lishment of the new court involves un
necessary expense.
In view of the fact that President Taft
is eo firmly in favor of the court, it is
not thought Mr. Mann will make any
move for its elimination from the bill.
Taft Talks to Senate. .
The Administration is " looking to the
Senate to. save the principal features of
the original bill. Supporting the Presi
dent in this matter are Senators Elkins,
Aldrich. Kean, Crane. Cullom and Nixon,
of the committee on interstate commerce,
as well as many other Republican lead
ers. Vigorous assaults upon the measure
have been made by Senators Cummins
and Clapp, and it is known they will have
the support of many other insurgent Re
publicans, as well as of many Democrats.
That the coalition of insurgent Republi
cans and Democrats Is formidable Ib ad
mitted by friends of the bill, and they
are now giving their attention to the
formulation dt amendments which they
hope will harmonize some of the differ
ences. Mr. Wickersham has met with the
friends of the bill on several occasions
and has given his assistance in framing
amendments.
At one time it was planned to have
these amendments drafted and presented
by Chairman Elkins. The plan has been
abandoned and it is now expected the
amendments will be parceled out among
other Senators, so a number may share
the credit of making the new law. This
scheme even includes the acceptance of
M Fi S
CUDAHY ALON
one or two of the amendments favored
by insurgents.
Not the slightest consideration is being
given by the Senate to the attitude of the
House on the bill. The chances are when
a conference is held the two measures
as passed will resemble each other very
little. That being the case, the act will
have to be made in conference. It is
clear that the Senate conferees will be
strengthened by the influence of the
White House.
Conservation May Go Over.
More force is being exerted by Senate
leaders to carry out President Taft's
views on the railroad bill than on any
other Administration measure. It would
surprise no one if the conservation meas
ures should go over until another session.
It is also certain there is a hard road
ahead of the statehood bill, although the
Democratic Senators have given some in
dications of demanding an agreement that
a vote be had on the statehood bill as
the plan for giving an open road to the
railroad bill.
Appropriation bills are passed by the
Senate about as rapidly as they are re
ceived from the House. The spirit of re
trenchment, which has a firm hold in the
Senate committee, precludes the enlarge
ment of the bills to any extent.
Warships Cause Contention.
The naval appropriation bill Is before
the House now, and there is in prospect a
sharp contest over the question whether
there shall be constructed two big battle
ships, or only one, as the minority of the
committee favors. A similar fight will be
made in the Senate, where many favor
cutting down the appropriations for the
Navy and Army.
The postals saving bank bill is expected
to come out of the House committee with
in a few weeks. There is considerable
sentiment In favor of amending It so as
to insure keeping funds In banks in the
vicinity where collected.
Cannon May Be Issue Again.
If the row. between the regular and in
surgent Republicans is at an end, as lead
ers of both factions profess to believe,' it
would appear that Congress may be ex
pected to adjourn about June 15. There
are indications, however, that the fires
of the recent contest are smoldering and
may break out at any moment.
Considerable talk is heard about elimi
nating Cannon from the Speakership, and
on Saturday the idea was advanced that
Asher C. Hinds, the parliamentarian of
the . House, might be favored for that
place.
The Democrats are vehement In their
declarations that they will carry the next
House, and it is not known how they
would feel about the selection of a non
member for the Speakership. Neither Is
it known how Mr. Hinds would feel about
giving up his position of a seat In the
House for an honor that might be com
paratively short.
In view of the fate of the Burleson res
olution, which was designed to create a
vacancy, members might hesitate to re
new such a motion. The whole subject,
nevertheless. Is attracting attention.

Chase Boy's Assailant to Cover

SEATTLE, Wash., March 27. The time
ly arrival of the police saved Basqualla
Mariella, an Italian laborer, from being
lynched by a mob of 200 angry residents of
the Beacon Hill district, this afternoon,
after the Italian had shot and dangerous
ly wounded Early Young, a l-year-old
boy who had been playing ball in the
alley behind his home.
The trouble started when Mariella, who,
is is said, had beer, drinking, attacked the
boys, attempting to take the ball away
from Young. A fight eVisued, during
which the Italian drew a revolver and
shot the boy in the side, the ball piercing
the left lung.
Passers-by rushed to the boy's aid and
the Italian started to run down the hill,
closely followed by a crowd of men and
boys, which grew in numbers as the
chase proceeded. Mariella fired several
shots at his pursuers, but none of them
took effect and he was finally cornered
in the hall of a tenement in which he
sought shelter. Several men Jumped upon
him and gave him a severe beating. Drag
ging him out of the building, they began
to coll for a rope, and threatened to hang
the assailant, when a squad of policemen
arrived' in an automobile and rescued the
prisoner.
Young was hurried to the city emergency
hospital, where his injuries are said to be
serious.

Plan Embrace Making Parliamen
tary Authority Speaker and Rep
resentative of His District Be
sides Democrats Hold Back.
WASHINGTON, March 27. (Special.)
The late Insurgents still regarding them
selves as very much alive, have directed
fresh attention to the idea of having the
Speaker of the House of Representatives
merely the presiding officer through the
suggestion that Asher C. Hinds, the lead
ing present-day parliamentary authority
in the United States, be selected to fill
the chair now occupied by Joseph G.
Cannon in the dual role as Speaker and
Representative from the Eighteenth Dis
trict of Illinois.
While the radical insurgents, those who
insist on refusing to let the country for
get that they are insurgents, are clamor
ing for Cannon's scalp in addition to his
sceptre, and threatening to find a way of
deposing him before the end of the session
if he does not abdicate, there has been a
good deal of talk In other quarters as to
the advisability of completing the reform
started by divorcing the Speakership en
tirely from politics.
Question Xot New.
The question is not new, but is given
a particular Interest at this time for
obvious reasons.
Mr. Hinds, who now has been brought
in the public eye in connection with the
Speakership, is the foremost parliamen
tary authority in the country. He is
down on the official roster of the House
as "clerk at the Speaker's table," and
for years and years he and not the
Speaker , has been the actual one to de
cide complicated points of order.
The one serious setback that Is prom
inent above all others to the immediate
carrying out of any scheme looking to
the seleotion of Mr. Hinds as presiding
officer of the House la the fact that thisi
is not Just the season for the Democrats
to take to the idea.
Democrats Have Hopes.
The Democrats have hopes of carrying
the next House of Representatives and
they are not prepared to furnish any
precedent that would rob them of the
glory and honor of having the office of
Speaker with such power as may cling
to it, in case the minority party be
comes the majority in 1911.
If anything along the line suggested is
done at the present session, it would be
more likely to follow strategic action on
the part of the' regular Republicans
should they become convinced they were
to lose the next House.

Q. Why is it that glasses are
worn so much more now than
years ago!
A. Years ago the science of
optics or correcting errors of
sight was not understood as it is
today; only old persons or those
near-sighted wore glasses. Now
we correct with lenses all errors
of sight.
Q. Why Is it that cheap glasses
do not give satisfaction!
A. Cheap glasses are so faulty
in construction and are of such
poor quality that they dictort
the vision and cause pain in the
eyes. The optical glass used by
us is brilliant, clear and perfect,
.insuring comfort and ease to
the wearer.
