CURRENCY REFORM AT EXTRA SESSION

Tariff Revision to Be Speedy and . Law Makers WW-Jben Tackle Currency Legislation.

Washington, March, 20.—Encouraged by the rapid progress already made in the preparation of a tariff revision bill, close friends of President Wilson predicted tonight that there surely would be currenry reform before the extra session of congress adjourned next summer.

Tho~ president talked informally with some of his callers about the prospects of currency legislation. They went away convinced that while the president would devote himself first and foremost to tar-’ iff revision, he now hoped that at least a start on monetary reform, if not active action, would be possible during the extra session. From the first, the president has believed in the necessity for immediate currency reform and, though anxious th at congress focus its attention and that of the nation on the tariff question, he never has given up the idea of getting a currency measure before the country within a few months. Senator Simmons; chairman of the finance committee, is reported to have said that the tariff could be disposed of within three months. Like the tariff, the currency bill when drawn will be presented as a .party measure, carefully worked out by congressional committees ifi cooperation with the president. It will not be made public,, it is said, until it has been closely studied by members of the cabinet, recognized authorities on currency questions, and some of the leading businessmen of the country in whose judgment the administration has confidence. It is pointed out that all the work of preparation can be carried on inconspicuously while the tariff debates occupy the center of the stage in congress. The president intends to stay i t Washington throughout the extra session, giving every ’attention to legislative matters.

A RECOLLECTION.

A good many years ago there was a-mellow-faced and soft-musclcd species of humanity employed on a Rensselaer newspaper. His shape indicated that he fed on red clover and green oats, but his breath gave evidence that his diet was composed of buzzards and other carion. His wife worked occasionally as an “extra” typesetter in the office. One day she occupied a stool at a case alongside another, where a youth of the town was setting type. The lady’s husband was busy getting the old Prouty press ready for the day’s run. Suddenly thevforeman” jumped up and charged toward the youth and accused him of having kissed the foreman’s 'wife. The good woman was frightfully mortified, the youth and another employe in the office were greatly amused. The accused young man informed the irate husband that he would not kiss his wife over the telephone. The foreman feigned sickness, took his wifey and went home. Since then the flat-footed and shuffling husband has drifted from place to -place, attracting about as much attention wherever he happened to spend a season as the coming .and going of a grade mare. The woman, strange to believe, has continued at his side, but whether or not the stigma he cast upon her by the charge so foolishly made almost a quarter of a century ago has been effaced from her memory, will probably never be known. >

The yacht Pennsylvania, carrying the party of explorers who wlfl attempt to penetrate the far reaches of the Amazon and the head waters of many of its tributaries in search of what is known as the “lost world,” in the basin of the Amazon, departed from Philadelphia Wednesday. It is expected the party will visit regions never before reached by white men.

Dispatches from New Haven. Conn., states that the Yale corporation has accepted with regret the resignation of former • President Taft as a member of the corporation. Mr. Taft, who is now Kent professor of law in Yale, sent in his resignation March 8, saying: “I do this because I do nodkdeem it in the interest of the university that a member of the corporation should at the same time be a professor under its appointment and in its employment.”

ASSAULTS MONTICELLO SUPERINTENDENT

Thornt Perrigo Uses Handle of Mattock in Retaliation for a Whipping Given Son.

Monticello Herald. Supt. Chas. Jackman is confined to his bed today as the result of an assault made upon him this morning by Thornt Perrigo. The trouble happened at the alley crossing at Chas. Parks’ residence. Perrigo met Jackman there and entered into a harangue about Tackman’s having punished his boy too severely yesterday. Jackman-treated him very nicely, but talked to the point about the punishment. Perrigo drew back to strike the school man with a piece of mattock handle he was carrying, and Jackman caught the bludgeon, and after scuffling a bit let go of the same possibly thinking that Perrigo would not attempt to use jt again. Thornt, though, did come back at Jackman with a blow that put the latter on his knees, but not before he had hit Perrigo a heavy blow with his fist. The second blow of the cudgel caught Jackman back and over the right eye, raising a huge welt, bruising and cutting the flesh and blackening the eye George Wigmore and John War fel were witnesses to the affray. Wigmore saw Perrigo going toward the school man with his club, and remembering that he had heard last evening of threats being made, watched to see what might happen. He and Warfel, when the club was raised, started to rush in to stop the trouble, but were not quick enough to prevent the blow. The melee grew out of the whipping of Perrigo’s son, Sam, who had been sent up to the superintendent’s office by his teacher, Miss Miller, on a charge of impertinence and insubordination. Jackman proceeded to chastise hinj, using a piece of garden hose, usually used in such cases, and the boy proving obstreperous he proceeded to use a board paddle, as nearly as can be learned. The lad kept up a cry of “murder” and “help” for the most of the period, that it was claimed could be heard all over the building. The father claimed that the punishment drew blood on the boy sufficient to soak through the lad’s underclothing, and that he had witnesses to prove the same. The irate parent threatened last evening to chastise Superintendent Jackman and proceeded to do so this morning. The proposition is a bad one, and will be a much worse one if there proves to be a fractured skull as the result of the blow.

Several have found fault with the use of corporal punishment in the schools this past winter," but the fact remains that something had to be done to correct conditions that were ruining the good the schools should do, and it seems that the faculty has not hesitated to go after what seemed to be duty, without fear or favor. It has made some of them unpopular with some people, but the influence of the discipline can be seen in the school rooffi and on the street.

BEAUTY EFFORTS DISTORT FEATURES

Dean of Kansas School of Medicine Says Women Are Cultivating Ugliness by Art. Dr. S. J. Crumb ine, dean of the school of medicine of the Kansas University, says that the efforts wonien are making to cause them to appear comely are certain to produce a race of women whose homeliness will be painful. He says: “Paint and powder on the face act just as so- much dirt.- They dog the pores of the face and the poison ingmme of them is absorbed. In a sems of experiments with animals it was shown that complete obstruction of the pores by means of paiht soon caused death, while partly closing the pores resulted in sickness resembling blood poisoning. If natural methods for the improvement and refinement of the complexion and the lines of the face were used American women in a few generations would be the most beautiful on earth. It is the unnatural methods they are using that are roughening the lines of the face and absolutely destroying their complexions. The women are using entirely too much rouge and paint.”

Men like to see women attractive, but there is nothing so much criticised by them as excessive use of paint and powder. If used at all it should be used so that no one can tell it is used. The natural complexion is far more attractive to a sensible man that one that is “made up”“witlj paints and powder. Vigorous exercise , correct breathing, mild massaging and brisk walks will do more toward producing at tractive qualities in features as well as general health. If your daughter falls into the habit of spending half Tier odd time before a looking glass wielding a powder rag it is your duty to take positive steps to' break up the habit. You will correct a silly and giddy tendency, preserve- your daughter's natural beauty, aid her health and preserve her friends. ft is time to give more thought to substantial things and less to complexions. The powder rag should take a back seat.

AUTHORESS PRAISED FOR RECENT WORK

Mrs. Nellie Stackhouse Atkinson, Former Rensselaer Girl, Gets Interesting Letter.

Many will recall Mrs. Eleanor Atkinson, who was born in the old Milroy homestead, and whose childhood was passed in this city, where she was known as Nellie Stackhouse. She has written several books and her latest, “Grey Friars Bobby,” has received very favorable notice from prominent people here and abroad. It Is the story of a faithful little dog that slept on its master’s grave in Edinburgh for many years. The Baroness Bur-dett-Coutts erected a monument to the dog’s memory. Her husband, who is an English philanthropist, after reading “Greyfriars Bobby,” wrote Mrs. Atkinson the following letter:

January 19, 1913, London. Dear Madam—The account you give of the association of the “Grand Le/idy” by which term in its fullest meaning you very perfectly denote the late Baroness—with the historic little dog is so charmingly written, and revives so many memories which are dear to me, that I cannot refrain from writing to you on the subject The Baroness’ noble record and measureless sympathies made hetf ill a sense, belong to the world, and your references must be widely appreciated. But I am entitled to speak in the warmer terms of per sonal gratitude for the touching tribute to her embodied in the closing part of the book. I only wish she could have read it all; and I am sure her eyes would, have moistened at your sympathetic biography of the small but important personage on whom she lavished so much affection, and subsequently no small honor. As you know,, she placed dumb animals very near'to humanity in the practice and teachings of her long life, and she would have thanked you from her heart for the book, not, perhaps, because of anything in it concerning herself, but because it gives, by an unusual and attractive method, form and effect to the ethics and sentiments which made her love and protect animals. If I had known of your intention to write about Greyfriars Bobby I would gladly have placed at you” disposal some illustrations wlllteh might have been of use and which rysw hang at Holly Lodge. It was there, in the summer, that the Baroness had her good time with the dogs—a procession of “members of the family” as I see them now, looking back over forty years; each one turned almost into a human being by her companionship, and the acute mysterious sensibilities it seemed to evoke. They had a good time, too. But as it is, all I can do is to ask if you will allow me to send you a photograph of the Baroness, which I will retain until I know this letter has reached you. It is not a large photograph, but the last and best she ever had taken. I had a few copies done for her intimate friends, on the first anniversary of her death; and it would be a pleasure to send you one. Believe me, dear madam, with renewed acknowledgments and regards, Yours very faithfully (Signed) W. Burdette-Ooutts. To Mrs. Eleanor Atkinson. Her books are, “Story of Chicago.” Lincoln’s Love Story,” and “Greyfriars Bobby.” | A large assortment of Eastier goods at the 5 and 10 Cent Store.

James Haynes, living four miles south of Pleasant Ridge, has been doctoring for stomach trouble for the past six months and is now in a very bad condition, or, as he puts it, “almost past going.” He has stoutly refused to enter a hospital as a patient, but says that he has about changed his mind and is now afraid that if he doesn’t get relief soon his present trouble will kill him.
