NEXT SESSION OF CONGRESS TO BE OOITEJOSY OIIE Speeches Made by President Taft Prove That He Has Arranged a Very Long Legislative Program. ACTION ON CURRENCY PROBABLY POSTPONED The Chief Executive Will Urge Changes in Anti-injunction Laws, Ship Subsidy, Interstate Commerce.

Washington, Oct. 9. During his trip from the Atlantic to the Pacific President Taft has given the country a pretty clear forecast of his message to congress in December. Evidently 1m has considered about all the needs of the country that might be remedied by congressional legislation. Assuming that his speeches are a correct forecast of his legislative program, it may be summed up as follows: 1. Currency legislation. , 2. The adoption of a postal savings bank system. S. Changes in th en'i-injunct?o:i laws. 4. Important additions to the interstate commerce law and the Sherman anti-trust law. 5. Legislation under which the conserration of the country's natural reSources may be assured. Ship Subsidy Legislation. There is small prospect that the president will in his December message make definite recommendations with reference to currency legislation. Members of bis cabinet have an Impression that he will not do more than call attention to the necessity for such legislation; they think he will await the full report and recommendations of the monetary commission of which Senator Aldrich Is chairman before attempting any definite recommendations. While the general expectation here Is that Mr. Taft will follow the lead of the monetary commission and favor a central bank of Issue, his friends point out that he has not up - to this time committed himself to the central bank Idea. May Call Special 8ession. Some of the members of his administration think It is significant that he hsv'aot talked central bank. The latest Information from the monetary Commission is that Its report will not be ready for submission during' the coming long session. If this Is true the whole question of currency reform will have to. go over and be taken up at a special session next fall or at the short session which will begin in December, 1910. Some of the associates of Senator Aldrich say he would like to have nine months or a year in which to educate the public in favor of his central bank scheme. At any rate, it is not on the program for the proposed currency legislation to be pushed forward at the coming session. . - In' his Chicago speech on his way west the president announced that he would recommend to congress legislation on the subject of the injunction I To You about oar bast: some time ago.

VALUABLE ITEM FOR MEN Health and strengrth hitherto unknown will be felt surging; in rich red blood through the arteries and veins and life's greatest ambitions may be realized as never before, if the following special treatment is followed by those men and women too, who are stricken with that most dreaded of all afflictions, nervous exhaustion, accompanied with such symptoms as extreme nervousness. Insomnia, cold extremities, melancholia, headaches, constipation, and dyspepsia, kidney trouble, dreadful dreams of direful disasters, timidity in venturing and a general inability to act naturally at all times as other people do. Iack of poise and equilibrium in men is a constant source of embarrassment even when the public least suspects it. For the benefit of those who want a restoration to full, bounding health and all the happiness accompanying it the following home treatment is given. It contains no opiates or habitrforming drugs, whatever. Mix it at home and no one will be the wiser as to your affliction. The treatment is simple, thorough and correct. Leading druggists supply the main tinctures, extracts and essences in one ounce bottles, ready to mix. Get three ounces syrup sarsaparllla compound, mix with one ounce compound fluid balmwort, and stand two hours. Add one ounce compound esessence cardlol, and one ounce tincture cadomene compound (not cardamon). Shake well and take a teaspoonful after each meal and one at bedtime. The ingredients are used for i X X i X X X t X X ! various prescriptions. which was promised in the republican platform. Just what the legislation of this sort would mean will probably be a question not easily determined, for there has always been more or less controversy as to how the injunction plank of the Chicago convention is to be interpreted. What the Platform Said. This is what the party said: "The republican party will uphold at all times the authority and integrity of the courts, state and federal, and will ever insist that their powers to en force their process snd to protect life, liberty and property shall be preserved inviolate. We believe, however, that the rules of procedure in the federal courts with respect to the Is suance . of the written injunction should be more accurately defined by statute, and that no injunction or tem porary restraining order should be is sued without notice, except where irreparable injuries would result from delay, in which case a speedy hearing thereafter should be granted." In the Chicago speech Mr. Taft did not go further in his interpretation of the party promise than to say that he favored the adoption of legislation looking to a proper definition of the cases in which preliminary injunctions might issue without notice and defining the proper procedure in such matters. The subject of Injunction is an old one with congress. The house on many occasions has passed bills on the subject which the senate prom ptly rejected. For Postal Savings Banks. Apparently the demand from some sources for postal savings banks is to have the president's aggressive sup port. Here again he says he would fulfill' a promise made by his party. Unless the senate and the house have undergone a marked change there will j be much opposition to the proposed new system of banking. Y By far the most important part of the president's legislative program is that which has to do with changes in the interstate commerce law and the anti-trust law. The Interstate commerce legislation he would have enacted may be summarized as follows: - 1. Create ' a separate interstate commerce court of five members, which would sit in Washington, and which would be the only court to which petitions to set aside or nulify the orders of the interstate commerce commission could be made. 2. Allow a single judge to make an order staying proceedings of the commission sixty days, and 'providing that thereafter no injunction should be allowed against the order of the i commission unless granted by the whole court of five members. 3. Confer on the commission power to hear and entertain complaints against unjust classification of merchandise for transportation. 4. Extend the power of the commission so as to have it include not only the fixing of rates after complaint, but also the readjustment of classification if it proves on complaint i to be unjust. 5. Providing that the commission may, by order, suspend, modify or annul any changes In the rules or regulations which impose undue burdens on shippers. Commission Must Approve. 6. A prohibition against any interstate railroad company acquiring stock in any competing railroad in the future and a provision that no railroad engaged in interstate commerce shall, after a certain date, hold stock in a competing railroad, and the further amendment that no railroad company engaged in interstate commerce shall issue any additional stock or bonds or other obligations except with the approval of the interstate commerce commission, based upon a finding by the commission that the stocks and bonds are issued, first, for purposes authorized by law, and second, for a price not less than par for stock, and not less than the reasonable market value for bonds, such price being paid either in cash or in property or services, and if in property or services, then at the fair value thereof, as determined by the commission. 7. Granting permission to railroads to agree upon traffic rates and to

make contracts with respect to rates that shall not be pooling contracts, but shall constitute agreements as to rates, these agreements to receive the approval of the interstate commerce commission. As for the anti-trust law, the president is committed to the policy of making it more effective by narrowing its scope. He would not include in Its prohibition and denunciation as a crime anything but a conspiracy or combination entered into with actual intent to monopolize or suppress competition in interstate trade. He gives notice that he will oppose the excepting from the operations of the law a class of persons like laborers or workingmen, farmers, ministers or teachers or lawyers. He will suggest to congress, so he says, that an accusatory bureau be established in the department of justice whose functions it shall be to institute prosecutions for violations of the interstate law and of the anti-trust law.

STYLES IN COATS. Orlg-la of tae Cataway Vroek. tmm Saek aaa the Dich Cut The modern cutaway sprang from the body fitting justaucorps of ths French as known to the courtiers of Louis XIV. and Louis XV., and the garment was in turn probably evolved from the frock or tunic worn in the fourteenth century. The first trace of a cutaway in anything like Its present form, says the Sartorial Art Journal. Is seen In old prints of French military uniform, early in the eighteenth century. For civilian use it was worn in England about 1785 as a riding coat, the tails being very long. In 1803 it was adopted In France for walking as well as for riding and was then in shape and cut much nearer the modern cutaway than any of its predecessors, though it was usually double breasted. Early in the nineteenth century the cutaway bad eight or nine buttons, only the fourth, fifth and sixth being used. This admitted of the wearer showing his neckcloth, fancy waistcoat and frilled shirt to the best advantage. Not till 1S40 or thereabout did the cutaway become almost identical with the modern garment and since then the changes in its shape hare been comparatively slight In 1841 the word "cutaway" became a fixture in the language. The old colonial uniform worn by Washington, with its flaps buttoned back; the coat worn by Nelson at the battles of St Vincent the Nile and Trafalgar, and the coat worn by Napoleon when on bis way to St Helena were all In a general way similar to the cutaway frock. The conventional dress coat of our time is a refined younger brother, so to speak, of the cutaway frock, and for it we are indebted to the French, who on the other hand credit the English with originating the coat that has evolved into our double breasted frock. The coat last named was Introduced into France by Montesquieu In the year 1780. Incidentally, we may add, the present black dress coat bas by the English speaking nations been restricted to evening wear little more than half a century. In some continental countries the dress coat is "proper form" for wear at court or other Important formal assemblages beld in the day time. The sack coat probably dates from the "Macaronies," who introduced it Into England In 1772, though a garment somewhat similar was worn by the Roundheads of Cromwell's day. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. An elderly person is a mighty poor judge of a circus. t We don't blame the children. We have done worse than kick and scream to have our way. The young hate work, but It is the last pride, the last joy of the aged, that they are able to do it. Sometimes a hostess has this kind of misfortune: Her guests have such a good time they don't want to go home. Be careful what you say to some peo ple. N. B. On second thought we have decided not to use that word "some." When s man has a picture taken, for the first five weeks afterward he spends a great deal of time in taking surreptitious looks at It and wondering If every one else sees the good points In It so plain to his eyes. Atchi3on Globe. Mtaate Animal Life. "The microscope teaches us," says a scientist "that there are animals so wonderfully minute that if a thousand of them were ranked abreast they could easily swim, without being thrown out of order, through the eye of the finest cambric needle ever made. Yet each of the minute creatures Is a highly organized number of particles, capable of moving about of finding and devouring food and of behaving In all respects as becomes an animal as distinguished from a fragment of unorganized matter." The hnman mind is utterly Incapable of realizing the structure of these little creatures and of fully appreciating their marvelous adaptation to the life they are destined to lead.

MURDERER

IN A LAST STAND Desperate Rifle Duel Has Been In Progress for Past Two Days. WOUND THREE DEPUTIES BATTLE OF TWENTY WHITES AGAINST ONE LONE BUCK TAKES PLACE IN ISOLATED SPOT IN SOUTH CALIFORNIA. (American News Service) San Bernardino, Cal., Oct 9. In a desperate rifle duel between a posse of twenty men, Under-Sheriff Ralphs of San Bernardino county, and Willie Boy, the Chemehuevis Indian double murderer, which has been in progress for two days at Mesquite Wells, three deputy sheriffs have been wounded and four horses killed. Mesquite Wells is an isolated spot 55 miles northwest of Whitewater on the edge of Death Valley. Deputy Sheriff Charles Roche was shot through the thigh, John Hide, an Indian trainer, wounded in the breast and back, and Segunda Chino, an Indian policeman, had his ear torn off by a bullet from the hunted desperado. Reinforcements have left here under command of Sheriff Dilson of Riverside county and another posse has been Banning Indian reservation. Willie Boy has been a fugitive since Sept. 17 when he shot and killed old Mike Boniface, a Banning Indian, because he would not give up his 15-year-old daughter, the desperado compelled the girl to flee with him and at Pipes two days later shot her through the heart when she was no longer able to keep up in the flight from a pursuing posse. FLOODS DANGEROUS Situation in Cuba Is Reported To Be Very Serious Now. PROPERTY MUCH DAMAGED (American News Service) Havana, Oct 9. The flood situation in Cuba is serious today. Rivers have gone over their banks, bridge? have been swept away and property damaged to the extent of hundreds of thousands of dollars have been done. Pour lives are known to have been lost and there are vague reports of further fatalities. For forty-eight hours there has not been a let up in the heavy rain. The towns most severely affected by the floods are Mantanzas, Sagua and Jaruco. The last named Is near Havana. In these towns bridges have been destroyed and houses washed away In the seething rivers. It is feared that the loss will be much heavier before the storms and floods pass, as there is no sign of cessation of the rain. Frightful Fate Averted.

DREAM LEbS SLELP.

Tfcara la lack Tatasr. A. ta m Baa-Sta Seaaattet. A wording to Sir Arthur Mitchell of English fame, there Is no such thing as dreamless sleep; that thinking is involuntary to the extent at least that we cannot cease to think under any order of the will; that thinking never ceases during life and is essential to the continuance of life; that dream thinking Is uncontrolled and undirected by the will, la sever coherent and concentrated. Is more or less of the same character as thinking In delirium and constitutes a state of mental disorder which Is not a state of disease; that thinking when awake Is always to some extent under the control of the will by which it Is directed to a subject and kept there; that there are many degrees of sleep and wakefulness and as many degrees of efficiency in the controlling power of the will; that thinking, like breathing or the beating of the heart does not cause a sense of weariness, though all three have a wearing effect on all the organs concerned; that the will's inhibiting and directing work brings fatigue and a demand for rest; that the will finds this rest and refreshment In sleep and that the frequent occurrence of a state of disordered mind in sleep does not do us harm, but on the contrary does us good. A BABOON HUNT. Barrtalr Saara-esUva of Slaagater of -Haatan Beiac. A traveler writing from South Africa describes a baboon bunt as follows: "Very slowly we spread out round about the base of the kopje and began a crawling ascent through the thick scrub. Kaffirs and farmers together, we formed something of a loose circle around the kopje. Daylight found us drawing near the higher spurs of the kopje and the Kaffirs were busy beating. "Then the sport began, and pretty uncanny it was. A good many baboons broke through our circle, for we only mustered seven guns, but as we neared the top of the kopje I could tell by the noises all about me that some execution was being done. My first kill gsve me a most uncomfortable thrill. It was horribly like picking off a man. "The baboons were great big. human looking brutes, quite capable of picking up s lamb in their hands and running off with it As a fact they generally content themselves with ripping tbe beast open to get at the curdled milk within. But their cries were the most horribly human thing about them and tbe gestures of their waving arms. When we all met a careful count was made. Thirty baboons had been bagged. Seven had fallen to my gun. HAARLEM IN HOLLAND. Am Old Description of the Bastlla Datch Towa. There msy not be many points of resemblance between Harlem in New York as it is st present and Haarlem In Holland as It stood more than a century ago. The following translation from sn old description of the European Haarlem shows, however, that It was quite a bustling place: "Haarlem, that wonderful grotesque, with Its canal, where tbe blue water trembles, and the church where tbe golden glass windows flame, and tbe stone balcony where the linen dries In the sun, and the roofs green as hops, and the storks that flap their wings round the town clock, stretching out their necks high in the air and catching the drops of rain in their beaks, and the heedless burgomaster who strokes his double chin with bis hand, and the Infatuated florist who grows thin, bis eyes fixed on a tulip, and the Bobemlenne who falls fainting on her mandolin, and the old man who plays the remmelpot, and the child who blows out a bladder, and the drinkers who smoke In the dingy wine shop, and the maidservant at the hostelry who hangs up a pheasant at the window."
