TUESDAY, MARCH 4, 1913.
THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY.
Put away all sarcasm from your
speech. Never complain. Do not
prophesy evil. Have a good word
for everyone or else keep silent.
Henry Ward Beecher.
President Wilson has a fine sense
of the humorous, after all. To A.
Mitchell Palmer he offered the port
folio of Secretary of War. Mr. Pal
mer is a Quaker, and of course
couldn't accept the offer. But it
was kind of Woodrow, now wasn't
it?
BRYAN IN THE CABINET.
By the receipt of the portfolio of
Secretary of State, William Jen
nings Bryan, the oft-rejected stone,
has become the head of the corner.
He will bo the Premier of the Wil
son Administration, and he will be
either the power behind the throne
or the bomb under It, as he thinks
circumstances require. If President
Wilson is willing to allow Mr. Bryan
to direct his Adminlstraton for him,
Mr. Bryan will do It cheerfully and
see that he gets duo credit for it.
If President Wilson is not willing to
permit Mr. Bryan to run things, Mr.
Bryan will be in a position to dis
credit President Wilson, and he will
not, hesitate to do so.
The temptation to pick flaws in a
presidential cabinet is so strong, and
so generally yielded to, that one al
most feels it a mark of superiority to
refrain. Of course, no man can pick
a cabinet which will suit everybody,
but in his choice of Mr. Bryan, it I
does seem that Dr. Wilson has risk
ed everything without a possibility
of gaining anything.
FIRES AND FIRE PRECAUTIONS.
In our Friday's issue wo published
an article in the editoral department
under the above heading. It had for
its basic thought the fact that most
fires are caused by carelessness.
When people write articles like that
on any subject from farm economy
to rational religion, they are suppos
ed to be free from the wrongs they
are trying to right.
Now listen!
Here was the experience of the
writer of that fire article almost be
fore the paper that contained it was
published. Having duly retired to
his "virtuous couch" (if there is such
an institution), he soon was hob
nobbing with old Morpheus at a rate
that was calculated to "beat the
band," so far as noise was concerned.
But hark! Thero is a call that dis
turbs the throbbing air of night!
Somobody with the toothache, eh?
Why don't folks have the toothache
in the day timo when other folks are
awake?
Sure we'd get up and find tho
Quicker Than Lightning Pain Ex
poller! It was on tho second row of
tho book shelves behind the sitting
room stove right along side tho
pasteboard box of matches. The bot
tle was found, by tho aid of tho light
of a match, and tho match, or what
remained of It after It had burned
our fingers, was tossed In a safe place
on tho heavy linoleum that was un
der tho stovo.
My, but it was comforting and
soothing to got back to bed and re
sume businoss with Mr. Morpheus
where we had loft off so reluctantly!
But thero is " a fly in tho oint
mont." An odor quite faint as
that of burning cloth, pervades tho
air. A freshly lighted match can bo
smelted all over your house at night,
and that must be what causes tho
odor.
The smell of burning cloth grows
stronger, and It Isn't so vory particu
lar whether that sleep engagement is
kept, after all. Somobody's head
that doesn't show bald or any other
color than dark arises from Us pil
low, arching Itself like that of the
" battle that snlffoth the battle afar
off." Thero Is a hasty flight down
the stairs where the smoke is like
tho ice In Hiawatha's winter, "ever
thickor, thicker, thicker!" The sit
ting repm door is open, and the room
Is full' of smoke. Thero in plain open
sight la the cause ot all the disturb
ance, In tho form ot a ring ot fire, re-

sombllng in the darkness a flro scone
at night on a distant hill or moun
tain. Hero is what had happened: That
stub end of a match, with a spark of
flro on it no larger than a plnhead,
had not been thrown on the linoleum
at all, but It had fallen on a pile of
clothing that lay in front of the
stove, and set the fabrics on fire. It
required but a moment to grab the
garments, open the door of the stove
and pitch them In; but the experi
ence had its after effect in the
thought of what might have been
had everybody gone to sleep.
Furthermore, that article in Fri
day's Citizen came vividly to mind,
and we thought we would write out
the story for the benefit of other
careful (?) people who think they
know how to handle matches.
HARRISBURG LETTER
Indications of an amicable arrange
ment being reached between the sup
porters of the Philadelphia Municipal
Court bill and the bill giving each of
the Common Pleas Courts in Phila
delphia an additional judge were evi
dent Thursday when amendments j
wore made to the Municipal Court
bill to meet objections of opponents
of that measure. It would appear
that a working agreement will be en-'
tered into by which both measures
will pass.
Governor Tener gave encourage
ment to some advocates of the Muni
cipal Court bill when they called up
on hlra a short time ago and many
are of the opinion that if the two
bills go through he will sign them
both.
A fight between the champions of
those measures would probably re
sult in their being side-tracked for
this session of tho Legislature at
least.
Judges' Salaries Reduced.
When the 'Municipal Court bill
came up In tho House it was amend
ed so that all jurisdiction over di
vorce cases was eliminated and the
salaries of the judges wore all reduc
ed. The president judge's salary
was cut from $8,500 a year to $G,
500, and the other judges' compen
sation was reduced from $8,000 a
year to $G,000 a year each.
The five Common Pleas Court
Judges hill has passed the Senate and
will come before the House shortly.
Tho friends of the Municipal Court
bill want that measure put through
the House before action shall bo tak
en upon the Common Pleas Court
Judges bill.
The Philadelphia Senators who
supported the bill for the five judges
are expected to aid in the passage of
the Municipal Court bill with the un
derstanding, that the Independent
members of tho House, who have
been displaying most Interest in the
Municipal Court bill, will co-operate
In providing for tho flvo additional
Common Pleas Court judges.
It Is unlikely that tho Municipal
Court bill will be hold in committee
In the Senate until the temper of the
House shall be shown toward the flvo
now Common Pleas Court Judges
bill.
Action was postponed in the House
upon the two bills calling for a con
stitutional convention and providing
for tho election of delegates thereto.
Friends of tho 'proposition were not
prepared to have a voto on either of
tho bills, and they asked that both be
passed for the present.
Liquor men, who were hero in
force and went away happy over the
defeat of the Rockwell bills, are an
noyed over the fact that they are
unable to learn definitely when tho
Steele amendment to the Constitu
tion, calling for Stato-wldo prohibi
tion of the liquor traffic, will bo call
ed up.
Thero Is talk of a new local option
bill to be .introduced in tho Senate,
'but from the size of tho vote in tho
House 121 to 83 against local option,
it Is hardly probable that a new bill
would be given serious attention.
Routino Business,
The general appropriation 1)111
carrying ?42,GG2,343.G9 was intro
duced into tho House by Mr. North,
Jefferson, chairman of the appropri
ation committee. The bill was Intro
duced earlier than known in years
and was ordered printed for Informa
tion of members, It will be recom
mitted for changes. When the bill
was read Speaker Alter called atten
tion to the fact so that members
could study the measure.
The report of the conference com
mittee on the resolution providing
for transportation of veterans to the
battlefield of Gettysburg during the
celebration of the semi-centennial
next July was agreed to. It now
provides that men who enlisted from
Pennsylvania or veterans -who are
now living In this State shall be
transported and maintained, while
those who enlisted from Pennsylva
nia regiments and "who are living out
side of the State shall be given trans
portation to and from Gettysburg and
tho State line. Mr. Allen, Alle
gheny, made a brief speech on tho
measure urging Its adoption.
A bill abolishing all fees of offi
cers of counties containing less than
150,000 population and establishing
salaries according to population was
Introduced Into the House fcy Mr. Ir
win, Blair. It will affect over fifty
counties In the State.
Mr. Grabe, 'Butler, Introduced a
bill to levy a special tax of one mill
for road purposes on personal prop
erty, capital stock, 'bonds and gross
earnings, tho money to be apportion
ed among townships according to
mileage of public roads.
Concerted Action Looked For.
When the Philadelphia legislators
left for home Thursday afternoon
not to return until Wednesday even
ing, thero was a suggestion that in
the lntrim some plan of concerted
action upon bills directly affecting
the Quaker City may be agreed upon.
There are two sets of measures
commanding the attention of the law
makers from the Quaker City, those
regarded as purely political and oth
ers which have for their aim the up
building of the city and hanbor of
Philadelphia, and the advancement
of the general welfare of tho com
munity. Criticism has been heard from
some of the Senators and Representa
tives who are not in accord with the
Blankenburg administration politi
cally, that the Mayor and some of his
directors are not helping their gener
al bills for public improvements by
antagonizing friends of members of
both branches of the Legislature who
would be affected by bills which are
being urged by the Blankenburg ad
ministration, among them being the
extension of civil service regulations
to county officers, the ripping out of
the present Councils and tho substi
tution of a Council of fifteen for the
present body.
Lobbyists Must Stay Out.
Lobbyists got a Jolt in the House
Thursday almost as severe as that
administered to them in the Senate a
few nights ago. The doors of the
Senate hero since have 'been closed
against them.
An iron-clad rule now stands on
record in the House and if any lobby
ist gets within that chamber in the
future it will bo because ho has
been introduced by a member.
The House adopted this rule:
"That beginning with the session
of March 5, 1913, admission to the
doors of the House of persons otner
than those expressly entitled to the
door, under Rule 39, shall be only
by card or direction to tho doorkeep
ers ifrom a member of the House."
In the past the doors havo been
open and visitors walked Into the
chamber, congregating in the space
in the rear of the members' seats.
There was so much noise and con
fusion that the legislators were
unable to follow the proceedings of
the House. A page will bo assigned
to each doorkeeper and he will sum
mon the member the visitor desires
to see.
MRS. FRIEDEWALD'S READING.
" Marlowe," the subject of Mrs.
Salo Friedewald's reading at the
High school last Saturday afternoon,
is a drama in five acts written by
Josephine Preston Peabody. This
"noble tragedy" is ranked with Ros
tand's "Cyrano" and Stephen Phil
lips' "Paolo and Francesca" because
of its strength, imagination and
splendid diction.
Tho timo of the drama is the early
Ellznbothan of Chrlstophor Marlowe,
the great predecessor of Shakespeare.
It is said that Miss Peabody satur
ated herself with tho Elizabethan
spirit while in college, consequently
it Is not surprising that the tragic
life of the wonderfully gifted, riot
ous "Kit" Marlowe stirred her dra
matic instinct.
Tho first act begins with a conver
sation in a London tavern between
companions of "Kit" Marlowe who
are discussing his new play "Faus
tus." During their conversation a
countryman from Canterbury and
his daughter Alison, a beautiful
guileless girl come to tho inn. Mar
lowe, who has in the meantime ar
rived, out of a spirit of adventure,
seeks the acquaintance of Alison
who is captivated by tho polished
young Londoner nnd the newness of
everything. Marlowo sings to her
ono of his beautiful lyrics and fairly
charms tho girl, though her inno
cenco provents oven tho hardened
Marlowo from carrying farther his
conquest. Alison lives In a dream
until sho overhears a conversation
botween her lover Gabriel and Mar
lowo, in which tho poet laughs when
asked if ho loves hor. Sho is dis-
covored and led away half fainting
by Gabriel and soon after returns to
Canterbury.
1 Later Marlowe Is again at tho inn.
Mlsfortuno has come upon him be
cause of his recklessness and ho has
been dismissed from tho "Queen's
Players" for atheism. Hero Miss
Penbody makes Marlowo speak with
that longing that seems to havo been
tho strongest characteristic of his
wild nature and say, "If there is no
God, thero should bo." Ho is roused
from his reveries by tho entrance of
his friends who tell him of Alison's
marriage to Gabriel nnd taunt him
with bolng unable to win hor. Half
drunken and disturbed of mind ho
remembers that Alison caused hlra
to feol one of his few good impulses
and thinking, as ho says, she will
bring light to him again ho goes to
Canterbury. Marlowo finds Alison
alono on Whltsun night and as she
comes down tho stairs with the
candlo hold so that It lights her face,
tho pure saint-like beauty does
bring light to him. Alison talks
with him and he goes back to a tav
ern where he is drawn into a brawl
and stabbed with his own dagger.
Dying, his troubled spirit seems to
find the God he said there should bo,
and ho cries to him.

Congress Can Work All Night
on Such Matters.
DON'T CAUSE EXTRA SESSION
Champ Clark Eulogizes Late Vice
President Sherman as Product of the
House Declares Latter Finest School.
Senator Webb Asserts World Is Grow
ing Better Discusses Liquor Traffic.
By ARTHUR V. DUNN.
Washington. March 3. Special.
If there was not to be nn extra ses
sion of congress there would be little
doubt about the passing of all the ap
propriation bills even if the conges
tion was greater than now exists.
Congress win work nil night at times
and accomplish wonders in the way of
crowding through appropriation bills.
I have never known the fnilure of ap
propriation bills to be the cause of an
extra session.
In the Taft administration the two
extra sessions were on account of the
tariff, tho first to revise the Dlngley
law and tho second to pass tho Cana
dian reciprocity bill. Neither meas
ure was really necessary at tho time,
but the president thought both were
of such Importance ns to need an ex
traordinary session. At this time, with
another extra session to enact tariff
legislation assured, it would not be nt
all surprising to see several appropri
ation bills fall.
"Mental Pugilistics."
In his nddress upon tho late Vice
President Sherman Champ Clark told
tho senate that Sherman was a house
product. "Wo trained him," ho said:
"we gave him his promotion. There
Is no iluer school under the sun than
tho house of representatives for men
tal pugilistics. Personally we are cour
teous to each other, but there Is no
such thing as house courtesy that in
fluences legislation."
The World Is Better.
Senator Webb of Tennessee Is an old
man, but a new senator. He made a
very Interesting speech in favor of the
Kenyon-Webb liquor bill, and In the
course of his speech he said the world
was improving. "I am nn optimist,"
said the senator. "Tho world Is get
ting better every day. I saw in my
boyhood liquor absolutely without re
striction. I saw gambling untrammel
ed. I saw public betting on horse races.
Lotteries in my boyhood used the
mails. Dueling was common. A gen
tleman allowed himself to be punctur
ed Into a pepperbox to show that he
was a brave man and a man of honor."
He then said that many of these
evils had been abolished or greatly re
stricted. Upon the whole, great Im
provements of a moral kind had been
made, he asserted.
Remembered Another Occasion.
"Kuute is having a hard time with
his river and harbor bill," remarked a
man passing through the senate corri
dor. "Yes," remarked a senator. "They
are debating It at some length, but it
is not half ns bad as when he was
managing the river nnd harbor bill
which Tom Carter talked to death."
The senator referred to an event
twelve years ago which caused con
siderable interest at tho time. Carter
began talking about 7 o'clock on the
night of March 3 and talked until they
arranged the senate for the inaugu
ration ceremonies a little before 12
o'clock on March 4. This year sena
tors talked because they wanted to
get tho bill amended or wanted some
amendment defeated.
By Its Right Name.
A bill has been reported by tho sen
ate finance committee for n tariff com
mission. As Introduced it provided for
a tnriff board. That was the name
which tho defunct organization was
called, because there was objection to
the word commission. Now they pur
pose to call It by Its right name If an
other Is created.
What Did Lincoln Say?
As tho famous address of President
Lincoln on the Gettysburg battlefield
Is to be one of the principal features
of tho Lincoln memorial, an effort Is
to be made to have tho correct version
of that address established. Senator
Root had passed a resolution for that
purpose, directing tho committee on
library to ascertain and report the
facts. When It la approved by congress
it may bo settled that thero can no
longer bo a dispute over what Lincoln
actually said on that occasion.
Loading Down Bills.
The senator who does not take ad
vantage of the closing days of congress
to load all his legislation on appropria
tion bills Is missing his chance. And
when tho gntes are once opened almost
everything goes in. Those supply bills
which Chairman Fltzgcrnld and other
manngers of appropriations send to tho
senate go back looking like delivery
wagons nbout Christmas time.
It looks as if the only way the cus
tom can be stopped is for the two
houses to ngree upon a Joint code of
rules as to what shall be put In such
bills. And such an agreement would
bo next to Impossible, for senators bare
learned that the only way they can
"beat the game" and have legislation
considered in the bouso which 1ms been
smothered In committees is to load It
on the appropriation bills.

AVANT PRIVILEGE TO
FISH ON SUNDAYS.
Senator Hencock Presents Petition
from Philadclphlnns nnd Others
on Subject.
Harrisburg. Senator Heacock ot
Montgomery county, at tho request
of 593 petitioners residing in Phila
delphia, Ogontz, AVillow Grove,
Manayunk, 'Norrlstown and other
places In those sections, Introduced
In the senate recently to bill per
mitting fishing on Sunday. Tho bill
contains a few unusual whereases,
prepared by some one in the legisla
tive reference bureau. In full tho
proposed act Is as follows:
Whereas, The day of rest, com
monly called Sunday, was made for
man, and not man for Sunday; and
Whereas, Innocent recreation on
the day of rest injures on one, but
on the contrary conduces to better
physical and moral well being; and
Whereas, To man, tired by six
days of labor, tho art of fishing af
fords an opportunity of rest and re
laxation and an acquaintance with
nature denied during the days of
toil; and
Whereas, The span of human life
Is short enough without making it
shorter by absurd laws that accom
plish no material good but simply
tend to arouse resentment in those
not limited by selfish creeds and be
liefs; therefore
Be it enacted, etc.. Section 1. It
shall be lawful to fish on tho day
commonly called Sunday.
