WASHINGTON. Jan. a -Senators In
terested In getting to work on appropria
tion bill that have passed the House
are beginning to fear that consideration
or the Loiimer case may prevent them
irom giving the budget measures the
careful study tha bills merit.
Indications are that the Lorlmer case

lime that remains of the present session.
Klther Senator Beveridgs or Senator
Owen will speak tomorrow In opposition
to Senator Lorlmer being permitted to
retain nls seat.
w hichever speaks, an attack will be
made upon the findings of the committee
on privileges and elections, exonerating
the Senator on the charges of bribery
tiled In connection with his election. This
is expected to precipitate a controversy
tha Senate will have to decide, for or
aaslnst Mr. Lorlmer. As the question is
one of highest privilege, it can be brought
up. even to the exclusion of appropria
tion cms.

Speaker of the House of Representatives,
whose lllnesw caused the abandonment of
the Speaker's customary New Year's re
ception. Is gradually recovering.
She was attacked by a severe cold early
In the seaaon and the weather has been
such since that she has suffered tem
porary relapse, but soon expects to re
turn to Washington and assume charge
of her fathers' house In the capital.
Miss Cannon laughs at the Washington
story to the effect that a grateful woman
n Bombay, India, had left fiSW.OOO with
a firm of lawyers there for her father 'n
return for some trifling kindness he
showed her many years ago. The story
ran that this woman had made Speaker
Cannon sole heir to her estate, after be
ing Informed by physicians that she could
not live longer than six months. .
Father has received many jokes of
this nature," said Miss Cannon. "Some
of them were the most barefaced fraudu

money to rrrwra the clam. much on the

Banker Is a veteran traveling sales

."The peppermint plantation Is In

240 acres In English peppermint and
36 acres of the American variety, but I
am cutting; out the American, because
It does not grow so luxuriantly and Is
not nearly as strong as the English.

MARYLAND IX) VERS NOT XOW
THOCGIIT SUICIDES.
State Attorney Starts Thorough In
vestigation Into Mysterious
Deaths of Young Couple.
CUMBERLAND. Md.. Jan. 8. (Spe
cial.) Certain that double murder, not
suicide, ended In tragedy the romance
of Charles E. Twigg aqd Grace Elosser,
who were found dead at the girl's home
a week ago yesterday, the staff of the
State Attorney has started a close sur
veillance of the dead girl's family.
Four, possibly five, suspects have
been brought Into the net of circum
stances surrounding the mysterious
deaths, but the police refuse to divulge
their names.
An arrest, or at least a "thlrd-de-
Senate to order at noon tomorrow, aa
M. E. Hay, elected Lieutenant-Governor.
Is now Governor. But It Is understood
that the courtesy will be extended
to A. S. Ruth, Thurston, who will an
nounce the caucus choice and turn the-
sravel over to Paulhamus.
At a caucus of the House tonight
Tavlor was elected as -the choice for
speaker; Lorcn Grinsted, King, was se
lected as chief cleric, and Joe Wilson
Pierce, for serireant-at-arms.
George E. Dickson, Kittitas. called
the caucus to order and Hugh Todd,
Democrat, Whitman, was selected as
secretary. In the House there was no
attempt to defeat Representative Tay
lor, although earlier. In the day some
of the eastside members tried to or
ganize behind E. E. Halsey, Asotin,
but he refused to allow his name to
be considered. Efforts to get- R. E.
Buchanan, Spokane, to be the east-side
choice likewise failed and shortly after
that rumor was afloat, the Spokane
delegation called on the caucus choice
and told him there would be ten Spo
kane votes for him. At the caucus
unanimous votes were cast for all can
dldates, there' being no other nomina
tions.
The patronage of the House will be
disposed of by a committee on patron
age which will ha named by the
Speaker after he calls the House . to
order at noon tomorrow and the er
ganizatlon Is completed.
In the matter of the United States
Senatorshlp the Legislature has only
to ratify the action of the Republican
state primary, which chose Miles Poln
dexter of Spokane, now Representative
In Congress, for the Senate term be
ginning March J. his plurality being
42,000.
Republican Majority 1C1.
The Republican majority on joint
ballot Is 121. The roost Important mat
ters to come before the Legislature
are the construction of the Congres
sional districts, this state having
gained two members under the new
census; a law to establish the Inula
tlve and referendum on state laws
and the recall for atate officers; meas
ures affecting the liquor traffic, and
an employers liability law,
The Anti-Saloon League la fighting
for legislation further restricting the
saloons and the liquor dealers are sat
lsfied to let the present laws stand
There Is nothing In sight which prom
ises anything sensational in the com
ing session. The proportion of old
members Is very large and experienced
bands will be in charge from the start.
Governor Hay, President-to-be Paul
hamus of the Senate, and Taylor have
come out openly in favor of economy
during the session, and In all probabll
lty the programme outlined by Senator
Paulhamus for two budgets will be
adopted.
Two Budgets Favored.
Paulhamus says that with practically
every county In the state having x a
state Institution of some kind or other
that he Is In favor of two budgets.
The first will cover tne needs of the
state Institutions and state depart
ments, these . to be reported back in
30 days and put out of the way so
as to prevent log-rolling.
In the second budget he would in
clude such things as the Columbia
River Improvement, the Puyallup. Stuck
ized labor is to fight or support the
employes' compensation bill which will
be Introduced at the coming session.
He says that the labor convention to
be held In Olympia shortly will decide
that and he declined to discuss the
action taken by the Brotherhood of
Trainmen, who have announced that
they will fight tha bill because of the
fact that It provides a maximum death
benefit; because It does not take into
consideration an Injured workman's
earning capacity and because they
think the scale of assessment for rail
roads, mills and factories is .too low
compared with the plants where the
hazard Is less. President Case states,
however, that the labor unions do want
an eight-hour law for women; the in
ltiative, referendum and recall and the
nomination of Supreme Court Judges
pyt back in thedirect primary.
Boyd P. Doty, who Is also on the scene,
declat-es that the liquor question will be
Injected Into the coming session; that a
county unit bill will be passed; that the
measure will provide for the prohibiting
of the manufacture of intoxicants In dry
territory and will have plenty of "teeth."
C. B. Yandell. secretary of the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce, is in Olympia and
he Is rumored to be" at the head of the
movement to have the Washington Leg
islature Indorse San Francisco as Its
choice for the holding of the Panama
Exposition.
It was announced late tonight that
F. A. Jackson, of King, is to be chair
man of the Senate reapportionment
committee In the Senate, and James
Cameron, of Pierce, will head the same
committee in the House. King and
Pierce Counties expect to control the
reapportionment bill put through.

HAY MAKING FEW CHAXGES
Administration of State Institutions
Left Undisturbed.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. Jan. V (Special.
When the names of the appointees of
Governor Hay are sent to the state Sen
ate for confirmation it will be found
that he probably has made a record as
Governor, In that there have been fewer
changes since he assumed office than
have been made by any other Governor.
Slues he- took office Ortis Hamilton,
Adjutant-General of the National Guard,
J. M. Snow, State Highway Commission
er, and F. A. Clark, State Oil Inspector,
have been removed "for cause," as also
were Harry E. Gilhara, of the Board of
Control, and James W. McArthur, of the
State Board of Pharmacy.
The names to be submitted by the Gov
ernor for confirmation by the Senate in
clude Jesse. Jones, of the Railroad Com
mission; J. E. Frost, of the State Tax
Commission; A. E. Cagwln, of the State
Board of Control ;.H. S. Kribb, Hotel In.
spector; H. L. Bowlby, Highway Comfhis.
sioner; Fred Llewellyn, Adjutant-Gen.
eral; Dr. AA. Tozier, of Everett, State
Oil Inspector; and Thomas A. Parrish,
of Seattle, State Tax Commissioner.
Since Governor Hay assumed his duties
there has not been a single change at
the state institutions. There have been
few changes in the commissions, aside
from shifting about. A. E. Cagwln was
changed from the State Tax Commission
to the State Board of Control when Eu
gene Lorton resigned, and E. D. Cowen
replaced Harry Gilham. Colonel Cagwln
was appointed to the Tax Commission to
succeed Joseph Easterday, resigned, and
Colonel Cagwin was replaced by Thomas
A. Parrish, of Seattle. So far as known
there will be no opposition to any of
tnese men.
LINDSEY TALKS TONIGHT
Denver's Juvenile Judge Expected
to Draw Crowd.
So much Interest is taken in Port
land in Juvenile reform work that the
Armory probably will be filled tonight
to hear Judge Ben Llndsey, of Denver,
speak.
The address Is the third number of
the Alumnae entertainment course for
the season. Judge Llndsey is proving
to be the most popular of the speakers
and It was necessary to engage the
Armory because of the Interest taken
In "the boys friend and his methods
of reformation.
Since Judge Llndsey established his
Juvenile Court in Denver, the move
ment has spread to all parts of the
United States, until children, who have
been unfortunate and come Into the
Jurisdiction of the courts, are no longer
given the status of criminals but are
segregated and taught to view- life in
a new way.
xnere is mucn interest In the man
who established and spread such re
form doctrines, and citizens of Port
land want to hear him speak and come
In personal touch with him.

NOTED CRIMINAL CAUGHT
Jekjr-the Nigger, Wanted In Seat

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 8. Joseph Con
llnskl. alias Goldberg, alias Jeoky the
Nigger, a notorious criminal wanted in
several stales, waa captured here today
at the aviation grounds1 by Ietectlvn
Behn of the local force. The chief mark
against Conllnskl In the police, records
I from Brooklyn. N. T. He is wanted
there on a charge of grand larceny.
The police swy that he. with four other
men. was arrested there a year ago on
the charge of writing threatening letter
to race-track men. The letters demanded
thousands of dollars and threatened to
poison horsna and do other cruel things
If the money was not delivered. The
gang, it Is said, got a good deal of money
In this way. They were released on bonds
and ran away last January.
CoDllnskl. the police say, admitted his
guilt In connection with the Brooklyn af

burglary.
ORIENT IS APPLE MARKET
Oregon Can PIpoe of Prod net.
Saya Globe-Trotter.
"The apple market In the Orient, and
Australia has not been touched," said
gree" examination, of one of the per
sons mentioned in the mystery, will be
the order tomorrow.
Miss Klosser's family stick to the
Idea that Twigg brought the poison
with him from Keyser. that heiave it
to the girl he was to have married the
next evening, and that he hid this be
cause he was tired of life. This theory
Is scouted by those who know the
man.
Stories, however, accumulate regard
ing Twlgg. He seems to have been
quite a ladles' man. There are many
girls here to whom he was friendly.
They are not talking openly of course.
But there are circumstances that may
lead to further Investigation of a vital
character.
One theory that nlght prove the
deaths an accident was- divulged yes
terday. The poison, definitely fixed as
hydrocyanic acid, a 2 per cent solution
of cyanide of potassium, such as jewel
ers use. some of the hundreds of theor
ists said, might have been left on the
ring, but there seems to be nothing to
this theory, owing to the fact that
young Twlgg bought the ring right out
of st,ock. He did not know the size
and arranged with the Jeweler to re
turn in the evening with Miss Elosser
and make an exchange.
Miss May Klosser. sister of the dead
girl, has declared that Twlgg poisoned
her sister and then killed himself. It
was through May that Twigg became
acquainted with his sweetheart, and
the police are busy ascribing Jealousy
to the surviving sister. The girl knows
of the gossip but denies It all. and the
mystery still remains unraveled.
Judge Llndsey, Armory, tonight.
ern Washington r air at Cliehalls and
Centralla, and all other such appropria
tions including the armories to be
asked for by 'Aberdeen, Walla Walla,
Everett and North Yakima.
These bills, he says, ought to be con.
sldered on their merits, and that the
men who come from counties where
state institutions are located should
not be held up and forced to vote for
improper measures in' order that what
are known as "local grafts" can be put
through. Senator Paulhamus is also
In favor of cutting down the number
of employes In the Senate and putting
the matter entirely in the hands of the
secretary, who will be authorized to
hire competent help. He Is to have
seven clerks and nine stenographers.
and more if he needs them.
Hay Has High Hopes.
Governor Hay is outspoken In favor
of economy, and lie declares that he
believes this Legislature will put
through more progressive and construc
tive legislation than any other body
that has assembled In Olympia.
Predictions are made that the 1911
session of the Legislature will estab
lish a precedent In giving plenty of
time to the consideration of the big
propositions which are to -be disposed
of at this time. The feeling Is that
matters such as the employers' com
pensation act. the public utilities bill.
the new water code and the new In
surance code, and the report of the
; investigating committe should not be
hampered In any way by fights on
other questions. Thero is also a sen
timent in favor of squelching freak
bills of all kinds. He would like to
see this Legislature make a record in
that respect.
Speaker Taylor is also In favor of
economy and the elimination of the
snap jobs in the House. He wants com
petent men in every position, and Is In
favor of paying them good salaries,
but not excessive money.
Although the legislators have been
coming Into Olympia for the past two
days, there is no sign of bitterness on
any hand. Governor Hay states that
he believes that It will be eliminated
at this session, and In this respect p re
session talk would Indicate . that he is
correct. The Speakership and presi
dency fights have been settled. There
is a striking sentiment toward letting
the present local option bill alone.
Usually the Governor s message Id read
on Wednesday of the opening week. This
year It probably will go to the Legis
lature late Tuesday afternoon.
Tonight saw the last of the members
of the House and-Senate arrive in
Olympia and while there are the usual
number of lobbyists on hand most of
them are keeping under cover. The
anti-saloon league representatives and
the labor organisations' leaders arrived
just In time to attend the caucuses of
the two bodies.

EXPERT EYEMAKER
COMING TO PORTLAND
Only Twenty of These Experts
in the Entire World.
The art of making artificial human eyes is only known to a few, as
the industry and the secret of blowing the porcelain has been hand
'ed down for generations from father to son In Germany, where tlie
best eyes are manufactured. As one person out of every five hun
dred has had the misfortune to lose an eye It is an easy matter of
figures to tell that there are something like five hundred worn In a
city the size of Portland. What is termed an ordinary stock eye scan
be purchased from almost any optician or surgical supply house In
the country, but when it eom?s to having an eye made to order, an
exact duplicate of the natural orb, it is seldom one has the oppor
tunity unless wealthy enough to make a trip to Europe, where all
artificial eyes are made.
Through the enterprise of the Columbian Optical Co., in The Ore
gontan building, with Its chain of some ten stores throughout the
United States, Mr. Floyd F. Brower, the local manager. Is pleased to
announce that arrangements have been consummated whereby the
people of Portland will have the rare chance to have a perfect eye
made to order, almost while they wait. One of the best experts in
the world will be actually making these delicate eves at the office of
the Columbian Optical Co., No. 133 Sixth t.. In a little over a month
from now, the exact dates being February lsth. 17th, 18th and 19th.
As only a limited number can be made during his short stay in
Portland, it will be well for those Interested to make their ap
pointments early, as the orders for eyes will b,e taken in turn as they
are registered. An absolute match of nature's own organ is guaran
teed in every case, and wise patients will not only take advantage of
this opportunity of having an eye made to order, but will undoubtedly
order several, as the chance to do so may never come again.
