The troupj? >vi(h thc Uultetl States neunte, acordlng to Senator James liumilton Lewin o? Illinois, IH simply the lack of air. Ile explains that the Renate chamber ls surrounded by cor ridors, so thal the only ventilation possible comes from the gallery, where the air has already been breathed hy the public. ThUi notorious stufllness, he says, ls responsible for the premature death of many senntofp] He Instances par ticularly Senators Bacon of Georgia. Johnson of Alabamtf -and Bradley of Kentucky, whose end he in certain was hastened by breathing the polluted at mosphere of tho chamber. The chief reason for the retirement of Killin Boot from tho senate, he declares, was tho fact that hi? health wa? 'im paired whenever he attended a ses sion. Indeed, remarks Senator Lewis, it is this same deadly plr of the chamber that makes senates' ntteudance sh irregular, and ads that to the difficul ty of his own work UB senate "whip." They wi!! not .stay there for business unleuB driven to il. Qnurrels and fights on the door of tho senate are due to the same cause. The lock ot oxygon results In frazzled nerves and tempers. And while the Senator does not say lt in so many word?, he lets it be inferred that thc dullness of Hcnatrrrlal oratory is lerge ly duo to the debilitating and stupefy ing atmosphere. The House, he hastens to add, la bors under thc sumo handicap. It hus been estimated that a proper syBtem of ventilation could be install ed for IC0.000. The public naturally wonders why the cider statesmen don't take a full breath of fresh air some morning bofore entering thc chamber, and then, ere they have succumbed to tile stupefying staleness, adopt a reso lution to introduce a ventilating sys tem. Surely that is not beyond the power of tile greatest deliberative body on earth. And 'the public will not begrudgo tho money. APACHE WRIST WATCHES .7 .i,. ?' Any. supercilious person who still regards tho much-abused wrist watch as an effeminate trinket, suitable for no males but mollycoddles is invited to con Miller t'jls news dispatch, receiv ed recently?frebi'El Paso. Tex.: "Tho Apache scouts ordered to trull the bandit Villa have entered Mexico on motor trucks, led by Penches, "the Captor of Geronimo. -\ Each of the twenty Apaches wore ;sun goggles and a wrist watch." TheBe Indians are regarded as the dowe; of the United States army scouts. Nearly all bf them are vet erans who participated .In the famous hunt for Geronimo, if they wore thc scalps of all thc men they have ku.ed, they'd probably have to pa> excess baggago on them. The wrist watch may be regarded aa having received its final and completo* vjnd^ation. Boys may soon be de coding them to play soldier with-\ at least? when they fare forth to bunt Villa in tho back lot. fA TIP TO CARRANZA Gen. Carranza is said to bc getting worried about the-provence ot our troops. And it's-, natural enough. They have 'already penetrated Mexico to a distance ot about 400 mites, and lt looks as if they may KO several hun dred milos further in their quest for tho elusive Villa. As their lines lengthen, more sobliora pour into the country to safeguard their communi cations. Moro U. iS. A. motor cars rush southward- wltii supplies. The Invasion constantly gains momentum, assumes bigger'dimensions, and looms larger In tho eyes of the Mexican peo ple. . Tha .population is being impressed with tho power of, ibo United States as it has not been bofore for some-O^ years. Tho First Chief, who hates and fears hs. doesn't like that More over, aa tho-expedition gains u firmer foothold in Mexico, there in, to.sus picious. Mexican eyes, always the pos sibility that wo may decido to turn it into an army' of intervention and oc cupation. ..

'-'-,'. ' Probably^; ;^o action ot .the supremo court in recent yeara has been await ed, .with B?ch general interest as that which is to coote Itt regard to the con fltft?ttonality of the Uiney-Odom a'ptl compact.law which hats*resulted in tho [withdrawal ot practically ali of tho old liuc lire insurance companies from tills state. Thc decision ls not only being awaited with anxiety on thc part of the insurance men but also my the peoplo.generally, many of whom have ulready been affected by the sit uation which has developed us the re knit of tho law. It ls the opinion of many that the law will be declared unconstitutional, and if this ls the case, lt will probably t"iid to relieve tito situation and at the same >tlme will keep the Insuruncc question out of politics this summer. Weather Forecast: Fair Thursday. Friday moderate temperature. A letter has been received from Dr. John E. White, who ls under treat ment in an Atlanta hospital, stating that he has made much improvement | and that he expects to return to An derson In a week or ten days lu bis j usual health and vigor. The training school authorities re gret very much his Inability to be presvnt this week, but are very glad to note his Improvement and feel con fident that no break in thc continuity of his hard work will occur. -o A Y. M. C. A. reading room und shower bath quarters have been equip ped in tents near Camp Cummins for thc accomodation of the cadets. Thc tents arc located jtiBt this side of where tho car truck turns down tho boulevard. With two baseball tcniUB In Ander son thia week, it seems tiuit thc en thusiasm for baseball has developed wonderfully. Tho attendance at the ClcmBon-Furmnn game Tuesday wns| very gratifying. In building tito base ball park which ls being sused for thc games Mr. A. P. Cater has donc a ser vice'that will never bo forgotten by thc people of the city. The location o? the park Is good, and doubtless it can be made into an excel lout field. Al though lt ls now a little rough, com pared with grounds of long stnndlng. I thc grounds show that Mr. Cater has) spared neither pains nor expense in getting Ct ready for this week. Mr. Cater states that the park will be kept { up for t* : use of future baseball games | in Anderson if lt is so desired, M '-' * t: ? - ?< ?-?
