TWO REFUSE TO REPLY
Drew and Badorf Keep Information to Themselves. Claim They Cannot Reply to Inquiries Before Grand Jury Without Violating Confidence. Indianapolis, May 12. —Walter Drew and J. A- G. Badorf, attorneys for the National Erectors’ Association, have retteed to answer questions before the grand jury. When Drew and Badorf were before the jury they answered all questions relating to the finding of the dynamite in the American Central Life building and at the Jones’ stable, the arrest of McNamara, which they witnessed, and the taking of the prisoner be'ore Police Judge Collins. When asked if they knew before it was found that dynamite was stored at the two places, they said they did. But to the questions as to how they knfw it, both refused to answer. It is believe*' that this matter, if revealed now would be anticipating some of the testimony that will be developed at Los Angeles in the trial of McNamara, and it might be that advance information would effect the prosecution’s case. Prosecutor Baker’s contention was at first that the attorneys would have to answer, but upon further reflection he questions if the court would require -it The attorneys did not claim, it is said, that the information came to them professionally, but that it was a matter which they could not reveal except by the violation of confidence.

BALK ELECTION OF GALLINGER
Insurgents Prevent Choice ol President pro Tem. SEVEN BALLOTS ABE TAKEN At No Time Does New Hampshire Senator Have More Than 32 Votes —Senate Adjourns Until Monday,
Washington, May 12. —The election | of J. H. Gallinger of New Hampshire as president pro tem. of the senate to succeed Senator Frye of Maine, who resigned on account of ill health, was prevented through the activity of eight insurgent Republican senators. Seven ballots were taken, but there was no indication of any possible break in the deadlock and the senate adjourned over until Monday. Thirty-seven votes, or a majority of those voting, were necessary for « choice on the first and 38 on the othei six ballots. The highest vote received by Senator Gallinger was 32. The Democratic senators voted solidly for Senator Bacon of Georgia, giving him 35 votes on every ballot and coming within *two votes of electing him on the first ballot. Senator Clapp of Minnesota was the candidate put forward by the insurgents, Mr Clapp himself voting for Senator Bristow of Kansas, a progressive. The Republican leaders in the senate are indignant at Senator LaFollette and the other seven insurgents who conspired to defeat the party’s choice. It seems certain now that Senator Gallinger's friends cannot hope for his election and that a deadlock is ahead. The insurgent Republicans admit that they have a personal grievance against Senator Gallinger. Senator LaFollette, * the leader of the insurgent revolt, was disappointed because the committee on committees refused to permit him to be a member of the committee on interstate and foreign commerce. He has charged that Senator Gallinger broke faith with him and admits tnat he is out for revenge It is the understanding that the insurgents are ready to vote for almost any senator except Gallinger. Senator Root launched into a severe criticism of the insurgent Republicans. He charged that the pairs were being manipulated to bring about the election of a Democratic president pro tem in such a way that the insurgents might avoid the appearance of direct responsibility for the result. Senator LaFollette was angry. His face was white and he glared at Senator Root. "I deny the right of the senator to make criticisms against me or the other senators for voting as we have done today or to read us out of the party," he shouted. “I do not recognize any secret caucus and especially when held behind closed doors, where even representatives are denied admission."

COMMITTEE QUIZ WILL BE PUSHED
Ohio Senators Persist in Spite of Disapproval. COMES AFTER GRAND JURY Senator Yount Tells of Offer Made Him to Work for Bill to Knock Out Bucket Shops—Senators Are Bitter. Columbus, 0., May 12. —In defiance of Governor Harmon’s wishes and the public declaration of reports that the probe they propose is to be a mere whitewash, the state senators have decided to push an investigation by their own committee, with power to grant immunity to witnesses, and they betray no anxiety over the resulting storm of disapproval. It is reported that th; committee will not push its hearings until the grand jury is through with its investigation. C. L. Cassingham, Cleveland coal operator, and W. H. Phipps, federal auditor for the Philippines, who was recalled as he was aboard a ship at San Francisco ready to sail for Manila, were witnesses before the jury. Senator Yount, a witness Wednesday, said in the senate that he had been offered $3,500 a year ago to introduce and work for a bill to knock out bucketshops. He is thought to have made this statement before the grand jury. Senators on the probing committee shew bitterness toward newspapers, and legislative correspondents expect to be the first witnesses summoned along with detectives.
FRENCH PLANS CHANGED
Brulard’g Command Starts for Dardzari Instead of Fez. Paris. May 12.—News from Morocco received here is that Colonel Brulard’s expedition of 3,000 men, whose original destination was Fez, will leave the vicinity of Rabat today for Dardzari, the new objective point decided upon by the French government. Military critics have been criticising the change in the plans for the expedl-, tion because Dardzari i»‘fifty-six miles from Fez, too far for the expedition to raise the siege of that place. It has also been claimed that the change of objective will prolong the French operations and arouse foreign criticism. The government seems to think, however, that the abandonment of Fez as the destination of the expedition will tend to disarm suspicion as to France’s intentions.

The Expressive Face. The most expressive face is not one which writhes, or agonizes with every sorrowful feeling or twists and squirms with every amusing situation. It is rather the one which retains a calm exterior while the strongest emotions of the soul play upon it with their lights and shadows. The face should be the smooth curtain on which the heart exhibits its various pictures without disturbing it. not the stage which requires the shifting of scenery for^ every act. The reason why so many beautiful faces are to be found in a convent is. in a great measure, due to the daily habit of composing the features in long hours of meditation and prayer. Unmarred by contending emotions, the features are gradually molded into harmonious outlines. Train your features to composure and avoid all grimacing habits. Help For Liapers. Lisping is sometimes caused by the shape of the tongue, sometimes it Is due to habitual self consciousness when talktifg and sometimes to ignorance in enunciation. In this case lessons from an elocution teacher will often Overcome the trouble entirely. The pupil will learn for the first time in her life how to place her tongue when pronouncing certain letters and combinations of letters, and with constant practice the lisp will disappear. If the lisp Is due to nervousness or self consciousness, as stammering often is, instruction in elocution will help a great deal. Soda For Bad Breath. A fourth of a teaspoonful of bicar’•onate of soda taken in half a glassful of water before each meal will help to correct the kind of indigestion that gives a bad breath. The bicarbonate of soda granules, that you can obtain at any druggist's, are good for this purpose and are excellent for the teeth as they dissolve in the mouth. Charcoal tablets are also good and are taken after meals in the same way. Another splendid remedy is a tablespoonful of glycerin in a wineglass of hot water after each meal. Massage Cream. An inexpensive massage cream may be prepared of almond oil, six ounces; lanolin, one ounce; spermaceti, two ounces; white wax, one ounce; balsam of Peru, one dram. Scent as desired, using a few drops of attar of rose or any other perfume preferred. Melt spermaceti and wax. add oil. lanolin and balsam and beat till cold.
