possessions were his old home at Ma
con., and his carefully selected library.
A characteristic of the late senator
was his well-known fondness for little
children. His apartments were near
the National Zoological Park and
nearly every morning- it was his fa
vorite pastime to stroll through the
grounds accompanied by children.
Among the floral tributes sent to the
apartment where his body rests were
floral tributes from these children.
One of Senator Bacon's last official
acts was to send a note of thanks to
Secretary and Mrs. Bryan for a potted
lilac sent him while at the hospital.
It has been placed at the head of the
casket.

she said, "and I shall go to-day though
I go in a chair."

Member of Parliament .
Ordered to Pay $65,000
By Associated Press
London, Feb. 16.—Sir Stuart Moh
tangu Samuel, Radical member of par
liament for White Chapel, was to-day
ordered by Justice Sir Sidney Rowlatt,
of the king's bench division, to pay
penalties and costs amounting to
$65,000 because he voted in the
House of Commons while his firm had
a contract with the British govern
ment. The money will be paid to
Dr. William Bird as informer.
This was the third suit brought
against Sir Stuart Samuel under the
law which gives any informer the
right to claim penalties under similar
circumstances. The first two suits
were dismissed on technicalities.

THE PISS QUESTION
11ESJMES
Report From Philadelphia Says
Likelihood That Higher
Court Will Decide
Railroad employes are again on the
anxious bench regarding the pass
question. One week has passed since
the Board of Public Service Commis
sioners decided in favor of the trip
passes to points in Pennsylvania, but
the men are still digging into their
pockets and paying cash if they want
to send their wives and families on a
short trip.
Local officials have no information
to give nor will they deny or affirm
the story from Philadelphia that the
question will be taken up to a high
ler court. The Philadelphia Press
says:
"The fight before the commission
was made by the railroad employes
and they are becoming very much
aroused as to what action the rail
roads will take. In the meantime
they have to go into their pockets to
pay the transportation of members of
their families'and in the cases of some
men this has been a material item
since the first of the year when the
passes were recalled, the new public
service law going into effect on that
day.
"The matter is in the hands of the
legal departments of the railroad com
panies and there was a report yester
day that the question might be pre
sented by the railroads to the State
Supreme Court when that body con
venes in May. The railroads want to
be sure of their ground, especially of
the court's interpretation of the word
discrimination. If the matter is taken
to the Supreme Court, railroaad em
ployes say, they will make a fight for
an equalization of passes. At present
some railroad officers and employes
have more liberal pass privileges than
others."
Suffrage Hearings Are
Opened in Massachusetts
By Associated Press
Boston. Mass., Feb. 16.—The largest
room in the State House was set aside
to-day for hearings on woman suf
frage. The committee on constitu
tional amendments divided the time
equally between speakers favoring
and opposing the five bills pending in
the House for a constitutional amend
ment to strike the word "male" from
the qualifications of voters..
Should the Legislature pass any of
the bills, it would be necessary to
have the passage reaffirmed by the
next session of the Legislature before
the question of adopting the consti
tutional amendment could be sub
mitted directly to the voters.

German Bailpon Makes
New Record For Distance
By Associated Press
Berlin, Feb. 16. —The German bal
loon Pilot, Hans Berliner, carrying
two passengers in liis spherical balloon
telegraphed to-day from Kirgischan
in the Ural mountains. Russia, that
he had landed there after a 47-hour
flight from Bltterfeld, Germany. The
flight marks a new distance record.

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD
Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea,' or as the German folks
call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at
any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful
of the tea, put a cup of boiling water
upon it, pour through a sieve and
drink a teacup full at any time. It is
the most effective way to break a cold
and cure grip, as it opens the pores,
reiieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus breaking a cold at once,
i It is inexpensive and entirely vege
