WILL ISSUE PARTY HAN DBOOK. Speech of Byrnes Takes High Rank in List. Washington, Aug. 19.?The Democratic congressional committee, which has been at work in Washington since the adjournment of congress, helping the campaign along and otherwise doing its bit towards securing a Democratic house this year, will soon bring from the press its regular "handbook" which will contain everything which is believed to help the members of the party, with a liberal use of speeches made during the last session of congress upon the big issues of the day. Among the other speeches will be one of special interest to southerners ?that of Congressman Byrnes of South Carolina. His address made just before the last session of congress ended, which was in reply to Representative Good, chairman of the house appropriations committee on allied Republican savings since tney got hold of the house machinery was . much commented upon at the time and will be one of the star productions of the Democratic publication. Mr. Good made a wonderful statement of what the Republicans had done since they came jnto power in the way of saving the people's money and his argument was really very interesting, but he did not know that some of the sharpest Democrats in congress?among whom was the South Carolinian?were just about ready to tear his interesting statement to bits. Mr. Byrnes took the floor and it was not long before he had riddled the arguments of the appropriations committee chairman. The speech made a big hit at the time and since it was delivered has been very favorably commented, upon. It was, by all odds, one of the big political speeches of the session of congress. Mr. Byrnes took the Good figures ana showed that through various schemes of fooling the people that the Republican congressmen had not really saved at all, but were merely camouflaging the situation. Among the speeches will be some of those delivered by Champ Clark, Claude Kitchin, Helflin of Alabama, and others dealing with the league of nations, the high cost of living, the . peace treaty, profiteering and other matters which came before the last session of congress for consideration. There is vast wealth of material which the Democrats will bring out and the interesting feature is that among some of the Democratic material to be used will be speeches from Republican members. In the latter class will come from "Jim" Mann, foremost in the Republican lineup, on -*- * - ? a. C? +V.r.f nnrfrr tilt? eULUns Ol mc icaucis lll mal pallj, tp pass its "rule"?which he denominated outrageous and autocratic? when the house bill was before the house for a vote. A speech of Senator McCumber, Republican, will also be used as part of the league of nations matter. Altogether, the material which the committee now has in hand and which will shortly appear in printed form for campaign purposes will prove most interesting. TWO YEARS' SLEEP EXDS. Wisconsin Woman Restored to Consciousness. Waukesha, Wis., Aug. 20.?Mrs. Clara Jorgenson, Racine, who has been asleep at the county asylum for more than two years, has regained consciousness. A sister-in-law of Mrs. Jorgenson visited the institution, bringing with her her six year old son. It is thought that the child awakened the memories in the woman's mind that restored her to a'normal condition. It has been necessary to feed and care for Mrs. Jorgensen as if spe were a helpless babe, according to Mrs. Peters, matron of the institution. Yesterday she walked, used table utensils and fed herself with ease. / She walked a short distance about the yard, but returned to her invalid's chair, exhausted from the exertion. "I could not, no matter how I tried, break the spell which seemed + /-, l.-oon m n h^iinrl in onnHior rcnrl r? IV V 1I1C VVUUU ill U*1V/V4*V* Tt v* AV* \ in which I lived," said Mrs. Jorgenson in an interview. She said that although she could not open her eyes, utter a word or move a muscle, she knew each day's events and heard each word spoken to her. In an attempt to describe the sensation of awakening. Mrs. Jorgenson could only say, "It just happened naturally." She could not feel in advance that the power to see and to speak was about to return to her, she explained.^ Mrs. Jorgenson clearly remembered world war events, knew of relatives who had been in the service, told the names of those who had remained on the battlefields of France, where they: fell, and knew some had returned home safely and the dates of their ' arrivals.
