Dog to Protect Mrs. Vanderbilt

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 Former ftepresentative James E. Watson is Mentioned In the way of criticism in Se report of the house committee that estlgated the charges of Martin M. Mulhali. The report has been drafted by Finis J. Garrett, of Tennessee, fchairman of the committee, and is fcbout ready to be submitted to confess. The report ignores those charges tf Col. Mulhali which related to the Indiana campaign of 108 when W'at-

on ran for governor and Mulhali was

bis self-imposed assistant in looking lifter the vote of the laboring men. Takes Up Charges. The report, however, takes up Mr. Watson's connection with the National Association of Manufacturers as the nalaried representative of that organisation in trying to secure legislation fcr the enactment of a tariff commission. It says, in substance, that Mr. Watfion is an able man, that for years previous to his leaving the national bouse of representatives he was the speaker's whip and was very close to Uncle Joe Cannon, with political alliances in both branches that were very strong. It also asserts that because of these "political connections" the National Association of Manufacturers found him an available man to represent it and that he was paid the munificent salary of $250 a week because of the pull he was supposed to have with congress.

L, TAFT CRITICISES GREATJVHITE WAY Chicago Sculptor Says New York's Institution Is a Sham.

BY KNICKERBOCKER. NEW YORK. Dec. 6 Every once In a while some well meaning person squares off and makes a vicious attack on little old Manhattan. Not that it troubles us at all. We are used to it. In fact. New Yorkers enjoy nothing so much, while at home, as criticising New York. When in other cities, of course, they make themselves offensive bragging about the Metropolis. Now comes Lorado Taft. who. we are informed, is sculptor (I was about to say a well known sculptor), of Chicago, with the announcement of a startling discovery. He gallops into print to inform us that the -'Great White Way" is not great at all, but a plain sham a fraud. It is not a thing of beauty, announces Mr. Taft, but an unsightly glare of lights." Mr. Taft thinks Chicagoites have cause for congratulation that they have not sunk to the depths of New Yorkers. Good gracious, dear Mr. Taft, we have known all of that these many years. Far be it from us to insinuate that the "Great White Way" is a thing of beauty. Of course, it is an unsightly glare of lights. Most of those people who frequent it are equally unsightly, especially early in the morning. We can remember no more unsightly sight than Broadway last New Year's eve. New Yorkers, No! We admit all these things, and in addition assert that most of those who go to make up Broadway are not New Yorkers. Dear Mr. Taft. the average New Yorker knows very little about Broadway. He couldn't tell you where Churchill's. Martin's or Shanley's, or any of the lobster palaces are located, unless he chanced to be a policeman or a newspaper reporter. It is the out-of-towners who frequent Broadway most. The trotteries are crowded every night with visitors, anti I don't doubt but that many of them come from Chicago. Heaven preserve Chicago from a "Great White Way" and the swarms of strangers that make such an institution possible.

AND .MRS. COBB HOLD OPEN HOUSE

RESORTS TO OXEN TO PULL MACHINE

Carrying a dictionary of automobile terms in one hand and a monkey wrench in another, Alfred C. Underbill, one of the largest property holders in Richmond, for more than an hour last evening attempting to repair his machine which had "stalled" on the Gaar hill, east of the city. Underbill finally became exasperated and resorted to oxen, one of the oldest modes of transportation known, to pull the gasoline conveyance up the hill. The oxen w hich are known as "pullers" zigzagged up the winding road, lead by one man and whipped by another. They managed to draw the heavy machine to the top of the half mile incline.

Open house was held yesterday afternoon by County Agent and Mrs. Cobb in the Wllliard W. C. T. U. hall at Fountain City, instead of holding a fanners" meeting. A misunderstanding on the part of the farmers of the community prevented a number from coming, as some believed the meeting was to have been held at night. Farmers expressed a desire for a night meeting instead of one in the afternoon, and Mr. Cobb will meet them Tuodav. IVcember 16 in the Wizard hall. During the course of the afternoon a number of farmers came into the hall and discussed farming questions with Mr. Cobb.

Only the intimate friends of both families will be guests at the wedding of Miss Laura Swan, society heroine of many reported engagements, and Andrew Robeson, Jr., of Boston, who are to be married at Wayside, the Newport home of Mrs. Elisha Dyer, mother of the bride-to-be. The young couple have been much in each others company for the last two years, and

the announcement of their engagement last week was no surprise. Rumor has associated Miss Swan's name with
