WASHINGTON CITY NOTES.
Senator Elkins' Death and Sketch
Of Life.?Other Items of Inter
est, Political and Otherwise.
Washington, January 12.?Death
has wrought havoc again and again
In the Senate of the Sixty-first Con
gress. The passing away of Sena
tor Stephen Renton Elkins, while
not ua-'xpected within the past few
weeks, is nevertheless a shock to
those who recall his vigorous activ
ity last session.
Senator Elkins first appeared in
public life in Washington In 1879 as j
a delegate from New Mexico in the
Forty-sixth Congress. He made one
speech in that Congress, and it was !
for the admission of the territory as
a state. Senator Elkins' career in
the Senate has been conspicuously
devoted to study aild work upon !
commercial questions coming before'
Congress, his greatest distinction hav
ing been achieved as chairman of I
the Committee on Interstate Com- '
merce in its dealing with railway ra?i
issues.
The death of the West Virginia
Senator leaves vacant the chairman-1
6hip of the Interstate Commerce com-1
mittee and his places on Commerce, !
Appropriations, Rules, Printing and
Geological Survey. His term ran
to March 4, 1913, and his death is a ,
loss to the Republicans of the Sen
ate, reducing Its majority to 8 in
the next Congress.
As the West Virginia legislature
which is in session, is strongly Dem
ocratic, that party will elect two
Senators, the election to be January
17.' |
An early report and an expedi
tious passage of the Rivers and Har
bors bill is expected in the Senate.
The aggregate sum of the Senate
amendments is $2,800,000, and it is
not likely that the bill as it came
from the House with the Senate ad- .
ditions will amount to much more
than $26,000,000. i
With the unexpended balances for
a number of projects provided for
In the river and harbor bill of last i
June reasonable provision has be^n I
for waterway improvement until the
next regular Congress undertakes to |
pass a bill. It is expected that I
something like a $50,000,000 bill, irf
accord with the policy of the Nation
al River and Harbor Congress, will
be passed.
It will be just a year on January l
19 since the Ballinger Pinchot in
vestigation was authorized by Con- j
gress. Agitators for a test vote on 1
the three reports of the Committee,
the majority, the minority and the
Madison report expect to get a vote
by February 1st.
The Bureau of Manufacturers. IJp- 1
l>artment of Commerce and Labor, j
has a communication from an Ameri
can business house which states it |
has been purchasing drinking-straws j
abroad, but would like to make pur- :
chases in the home market.
The 19th of January will be a no
table day in these parts. It will be
the day for the meeting of the Nation
al Board of Trade, whose member
ship represents business organizations
In all the cities of the United States,
the day Congress votes on the Pan
ama exposition question and the1 date 1
of the common understanding among
the Democrats that tho first thing
to be done will be the election of
the Democratic or majority contingent:
of 12 members of the ways and [
means committee the early action be- |
Ing taken in order that the commit-1
tee may get to work on the Demo
cratic tariff bill.
Friends of Senator Charles J.
Hughes, of Colorado, state that the
condition of his health U so precar
ious that it Is not at all probable
that he will ever be able to resume
his duties as a Senator. It is ex
pected that he will resign.
Champ Clark confesses that he
may have some French blood In him.
His name was originally James Beau
champ Clark, the middle name be
ing for his mother's family which
was of Hugruenot strain. The fu
ture Speaker of the House, of his
own notion, cut out all of his name
but the "Champ."
The battleship Arkansas, to be
launched at Camden, New Jersey at
the yard of the New York Ship
building Company, Jan. 13 will be
the largest warship afloat?26.000
tons and carrying more highpower
big guns than any other warcraft on
the seas, having in turrets twelve
12-inch breech-loading rifles and 21
five-inch rapid fire rifle cannon for
broadside battery, to say nothing of
numerous qulckfiring automatic smal
ler rifles. She will have a crew of
1072 officers and men.

GOOD NEWS.
Every Sufferer from Catarrh, Coughs,
Colds and Sore Throat Should
Read It.
So many, hundreds ot catarrh vie- I
tims who have taken the Hyomoi
treatment, have written us letters
thanking us for publishing our me
thod of taking the HYOMEI vapo
treatment in connection with the in- :
haler that we gladly publish it again. I
The vapor treatment is especially
recommended in stubborn cases of
chronic catarrh of long standing, but
remember that the inhaler should be
used daily as usual.
This is the simple vapor treatment
and only takes five minutes of your
time before going to bed. Pour a
teaspoonful of Hyomel into a bowl1
of boiling water, cover head and bowl
with towel and breathe for several
minutes the vapor that arises.
You will be surprised at the re
sult of this treatment; It makes the
head feel fine and clear; you will
sleep better, and that stuffed up feel
ing in the head will gradually disap
pear.
This same method will break up
the worst cold In the head or chest
in one night.
A bottle of HYOMEI costs 50 cents
at Hood Bros., who guarantee it. If
you want the complete outfit, which
includes the little hard rubber pock
et inhaler, the price Is 11.00.
No stomach dosing; Just breathe
HYOMEI and cure catarrh and all
diseases of the breathing organs.

MRS. COOK TELLSj TRUTH.
Dexter, Ky.?In a signed statement.
Mil. Cook tells the truth about how
Cardui brought back her health and
strer.g.h. She says: "I could not;
| get any relief, until I tried Cardui,
the woman's tonic. I suffered more
or less for 10 years, and was so weak
and nervous I could hardly do my ?
house work. Now I am in better
health than ever before, am regular
as clock work, do not suffer at all,
and gain strength every day." Thous
ands of women have been helped
back to health by Cardui. Try it.
The Comforter.
He was very bashful and she tried
to n^ake it easy for him. They were I
driving along the seashore and she
became silent for a time.
"What's the matter?" he asked.
"Oh, I feel blue," she replied.
"Nobody loves me, and my hands
are cold.''
"You should not say that," was 1
his word of consolation, "for God
loves you, and your mother loves 1
; ou, and you can sit on your hands." |
?Success.
Knowledge and timber shouldn't be
much used till they are seasoned.?

FREE SAMPLE OF LAXATIVE
CURED THEIR CONSTIPATION
When a person ha* become discouraged
through years of failure to find a cure,
and finally, perhaps, gives up trying. It
Is small wonder that he becomes skep
tical. And yet. to all who have con
stipation. we would say, "Try Just one
thing more."
We wish you would try Dr. Caldwell's
Fyrup Pepsin, a laxative tonic that has
been used for a generation. Thousands
are using It; surely aome of your friends
among the number. Tou can buy It of
any druggist at fifty cents and one dol
lar a bottle, but better still, send your
name and address to Dr. Caldwell for a
free sample bottle. He will send you
enough to convince you of Its merits, and
then If you like It you can buy It of your
diugglst. Mr. J. J. Petty of Unlonvltle,
Mo . Mr. Oeorge W. Zimmerman of Har
rlsburg. Pa. and many others of both
?exes and In all part* of the country first
used a sample bottle and now have It
regularly In the house.
You will learn to do away with salts,
waters and cathartics for these are but
temporary reliefs while Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin Is guaranteed to cure per
manently. It will train your stomach and
bowel musclcs so that they will do their
work again naturally without outside aid. 1
Cast aside your skepticism and try Syrup
Pepsin.
Dr. Caldwell does not feel that the
purchase of his remedy ends his obli
gation. He has specialised in stomach,
liver and bowel diseases for over forty I
years and will be pleased to give the I
reader any advice on the subject free
of charge. All are welcome to write !
him. Whether for the medical advice
or the free sample address him Dr.
