"the enthusiasm of the entire assembly
,to such a pitch that It was a small thing
for Mr. Burr Mdntos.li to auction ofT a
French embroidered luncheon cloth for the

WHAT A CONGRESSMAN SEES
Semitccckly Lctlvr Touching on the Washington Doing of Personalities
Familiar to Philaclclphians
By J. Hampton Moore
Nl
of the Congiessmen who have
gone to Europe to v lev the war at
first hand have gone with tho sanction of
Congress. Most of them have paid their
own expenses, but some of them have had
the approval and assistance of the War
and Navy Departments. The Committee
i
on Naval Affairs, including Thomas S.
Butler, of West Chester; William .1.
Browning, of Camden, and John It. Fan,
of Scianton, went over in a naval vesel
and came as near being "oftlcial" as any
body that has made tho tiip. The suspi
cion that some of the membeis have found
it a good thins for speechmaklng mate
rial "hack home" has not been wholly dis
pelled by the European nppeaiances of
Senator J. Ham Lewis, of Illinois, who
seems to be the bearer of some mystcilous
messages "from the President." The Sena
tor Is a candidate for re-election and the
President has endotsed him In one of his
famous "politics is adjourned" letters.
But by far the strangest congiesslon.il
war visit Is that of Thomas V. Schall, the
blind member from Minnesota. Schall is
an independent who broke awav from tha
Republicans In the speakership contest ano
made the speech nominating Champ Claik
against James It. Mann. Mrs. Schall acts
as secretary for the eloquent Mlnnesotiin,
and the House votes a page to constantly
attend him. Hearing that other members
were going to Europe "to tee tho war."
Schall is said to have put hl.s deslic up to
Mr. Baker, the Secretaiy of War, who
authorised the trip. Mrs. Schall accom
panies her husband. In due course the
Secretary may be given a bltn 1 man's Im
pression of the gieat contest.
fTUIAT- other countiles are keeping "an
anchor to windward" In the matter of
trade relations during the war Is evidenced
by the action of the War Industries Boaul
in connection with the expert of bones fiom
the United States. The Philadelphia firm
of Haflelgh & Co., American and Cam
bria streets, recently called attention to
the effect upon the fertilizer Industry of
a sudden and extraordinary shipment of
bones from the United States to Japan
A lessening of fertilizer is about the last
thing American food producers could sanc
tion. Therefore, a ruling has been ob
tained from the War Trade Boird, placing
shin, thigh and Unground bones on the
export-conservation list, which will virtu
ally stop the exportation to Japan, This
ruling Is expected to help the fettilizer
Industry In the United States. The Baugh
Company, In which Benjamin Harris
Brewster, Jr., is now an active factor, Is
likewise Interested In this decision.
YOUNG I.oal Graham wanted to be a
clergjman that runs In the family
but he joined the marines and was pushed
into the ranks of "the men who are first
to light." When the three days' struggle
at Chateau-Thierry was on he found him
self In the thickest of It, In the politest
language he could muster up young
Graham tells the story, Hete is a part
of It:
"The French dropped b,ack, but the
marines stuck we held them for two days
and It made them (the Germans) mad!
The next day at dawn we went 'over the
top.' My platoon went through four artil
lery barrages, gas and machine-gun fire;
It was terrible; a stretch of road on a
ridge was a literal 'Dead Man's Land," By
the grace of God I 'went through"; we
reached our objectives and dug In again.
That night there was little sleep for any
of us, for we were waiting for Fritz to
start something and he did! At 1:30
o'clock the next 'morning he started a
crossfire, barrage. The din was terrific;
shells dropped on all sides; I never want
to be any nearer to hell than on that morn
ing; finally a high explosive hit the grount'i
a foot from my back and buried mej'l got
up in a rather dazed condition; my lieu
tenant found me about noon sitting in
the edge of a trench and sent me back. I
suppose I was 'nuts' for a while. Now I
am trying to 'get myself together," as
Con Grebe would say, A long rest will
fix me up, I hope, and then I'm going back
to 'get at 'em again," "
Pretty good that, for a young fellow
w,ho went Into the navy to be a chaplain.
Graham's brother, R. Macdonald Graham,
another Philadelphia boy, has just been
admitted aa a midshipman to the United
States Naval Academy at Annapolis.

Canal when Manchester was obliged to do

no good reason, from the Liverpool stand

was not for Manchester to worry. Ten
years ago when "Made In ne-manj" prod

they are now, Manchester, largely because
of her canal, claimed a population within
a ten-mile radius equal to that of London.
It wo,tild be a great sight for the Philadel

preparation for the European struggle.
While riding on a train ho was thrown and

The two brothers enlisted and are In the

"Now , Floi a.
I shall want you to go shopping with me lots
an'd Miss Flora, eageily emeiing Into Miss
Macule's discussion of frills and flounces.
Hlled to notice that Miss Maggie had dropped
the subject of Mr Smith somewhat hastily.
Hillerion bad much to talk about during
those summer da.vs Mr Smiths going had
created a mild discussion the "ancestor fel
lei" vvas well known and well liked ill the
town But even his departure did rot arouse
the Interest that was bestowed upon the re
moval of the James nlaisdells lo Plalnvllle,
and this. In turn, did not cause so great an
excitement as did the news that Miss Maggie
Puff had inherited $.'.0,000 and had rlne to
Chicago to bpend it And the fact that nearly
alt who henid this promptly declared that
thev hoped she would spend a good shale of
1( j,, Chicago or elsewhere on herself,
showed pretty well Just where Miss Maggie
Duff stood in the hearts of Hlllerton.
It vvas early In September that Miss Flora
had the letter from Miss Maggie. Not but
that she hud received letters from Miss Mag.
(-Ie before, but that the contents, of this one
made It at ence, to all the Blalsdells. "the
letter."
Miss Floia began to read It, gave a little
cry and sprang lo her feet. Standing, her
breath suspended, she finished It. Five
minutes later, gloes half on and hat akew.
she was hurrying across the common to her
brother Frank's home

lucky It vvas that he got back Just In time
before the other letter had to be opened next
November. But It didn't say anv more about
his trip or an.v thing The morning papers
will have more, Maggie said, probably."
"Yes, of course, of course," nodded Jane,
rolling the corner of her upper apron nerv
nurlv (Since the $40,(100 loss Jane had gone
back to her old habit of wearing twin
aprons ) "Where do you suppose he's been

"Yes of course of course," nodded Jane,
again nervously "Sa. Flora, I wonder

"Oh mercy '" exclaimed Miss Flora.
aghast "Mercv ine, J,jrie' T'd be scared
to death to do such a thing as that Oh. you
din't think we've got to do that?" Miss Flora
had grown actually pale.
Jane frowned
"I don't know. We'd want lo do what
was right and proper, of course But 1
don't see " She paused helplessly
Ml"s Flora gave a sudden hysterical little
laugh.
"Well. 1 don't see bow we'ie going to find
out what's pioper In this case." she giggled.
"We can't write to a magazine, same as I
did when I wanted to know how to answer

man wills you a hundred thousand dollars
and then comes to life aRaln, Is It proper
nr not pioper to write and thank him?'
They'd think he vvas crazy, and they'd haxe
leason to! For mv part. I "
The telephone bell rang sharply and Jane
rose to nnsvv.r II She vvas gone some time.
When she came back she was even more ex
cited "It vvas Frank- He's heard It it was
In the papers tonight"
"Did It tell an.v thing more?"
"Not much, I guess Still, there was some.
He's going to bring It home. It's most sup
per time. Wb.y don't OU wait?" she ques
tioned, as Miss Flora got hastily to her
feet
Miss Floia shook her head
"I can't I left even thing hist as It was
