SATURDAY, MAY 23. 1908. GIFT FOR COLUMBIA Columbia University Gratefully Ac. cepts Mrs. Ray Matshak'a Gift THE MORNING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, OREGON, ( l t TOf 1 f? ml 1 D U I d NEW YORK, May 22.-M a me morial to her husband, Mrs. Ray Watshak has given the money to juip a department of mechanice thcorpy at the Vanderbilt Clinic of the College of Physicians and Sur geons of this city.

Jaeger, instructor of orthopaedic surgeory at the College of Physic ians and Surgeons Mechanico is to hasten the recovery of persons whose disease have disabled them or have been injured. Thus it saves time and money; the sufferer, cured by it, can return to work sooner; his "sick benefit" ends sooner. If a patient is recovering from the after-effects of a broken arm, leg or shoulder that has knit, or if one of his joints is grow ing stiff after a sprain or break, a mechanico-therapeutic machine is called into use and the treatment is applied. If a patient is too weak to work actively with one of the ma chines his limb is strapped to the tpparatus and without the least as sistance on his part the needed heal ing exercises is given by means of a motor.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-In an open session the Senate concluded today with an extended debate the power of Congress to regulate the interstate and foreign commerce and a negative poll of 23 to 32 was taken on the motion to adopt the Foraker substitute for an interstate commerce resolution under which the penalty provision of the commodity clause of the Hepburn bill is to take effect. The Foraker substitute provides that the prohibition against railroads and in terstate coal and other articles pro duced by them shall apply only to property acquired since the passage of the Hepburn rate bill, May 29, 1906. The committee's resolution applied to all products without limi tation concerning time of ownership. After the substitute was lost and be fore the vote on the committee reso lution was called for, Aldrich moved that the Senate go into executive ses sion. The bill to place date on canned meat products upon packages was dis cussed briefly as was the omnibus claims bill, but both Were displaced. The disagreement of the House to the conference report on post office ap propriation bill on account of pro vision for the ship subsidies caused another conference to be ordered. The amendment will still be insisted upon Have You Attended WISE'S Great WaRe Up Table No. 1 I: i n 1) Men's Suits, regular ft A 0 I'M price $12.50 to $15 UA If Not, Better Come NOW Prices Reduced Herman Wise The Big Clothes Shop ELECTION OF OFFICERS.
