... Washington, Feb. 10.—By forty
majority the house last evening voted
down Speaker Cannon's plan to hold

LURE OF THE AIR ~
CLAIMS TWO MORE
Austin, Feb. 10.— Senator Willacy
chairman-of the senate finance com-
mittee, said the house and senate
finance committees would work on
the general appropriation bill as
much as possible and that night ses-
sions would be held jointly all next
week. Senator Willacy was frank
enough to say that it was hardly
possible to pass a general appropria-
tion bill in a sixty-day session and
that if adjournment comes on March
1 1 or even March IS tile appropria-
tion hill will most probably be un-
disposed of. That would mean a
special session some time before the
next fiscal year, for all current ap-
propriations expire on Aug. 31.
Views of Speaker Rayburn.
Speaker Rayburn of the house
bleieves that the regular session will
not adjourn until the senatorial
and representative districts have
been reapportioned. He says the
committees are working hard and
that the redistricting of senatorial
and representative districts is sure
to occur before adjournment.
A resolution calling upon the ses-
sion to redistrict before adjourn-
ment, as given in last night's dis-
patches, was tabled in the house to-
day by viva voce vote.
It was rumored last night that
Senator Carter had intimated that
he has made, up his mind to vote
for early adjournment. If he ad-
heres to that decision it will mean
adjournment on March 11 or 18 un-
less some of the house members
change their minds. The pros have
confessed that they believe Mr. Car-
ter will be/ against them.

llouai, France, Feb. 9.—Two more
names were added to the death roll
of the aeroplane yesterday. Avia-
tors Noel and Delatorre were killed
while conducting a trial of a mili-
tary aeroplane before experts from
the war department previous to its
delivery to the army. Noel was the
pilot and Delatorre a passenger.
According to the requirements of
the department Noel put the ma-
chine through its paces for one hour
and the trial, which was considered
successful, was practically at an end.
The aviators were planing down from
a height of about 250 feet when
suddenly the wings folded up and
the machine fell to the earth. The
men were taken out dead.

' Springfield, 111., Feb. 10.—The
finishing touches to the preparations
for the visit of President Taft and
the annual banquet of the Lincoln
Memorial association, at which the
president will speak tomorrow night,
were completed today. The down-
town section of the city is donning
patriotic attire in honor of the oc-
casion. The great hall of the state
arsenal, where the banquet will

orated. Five thousand American
Beauty roses and thousands of
branches of artificial foliage have
been used in tlie decorations.
During his brief stay in the city
the president will be the guest of
Governor Deneen. The presidential
party will arrive in the city about
two o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and

er in the hall of the house of rep-

Chicago, 111., Feb, 19.—1'nion of
the (Methodist Episcopal church and
the M. E. Church, south, is urged
strongly by John A. Patten, Chatta-
nooga, Tenn., chairman of the book
committee of the M. E. church in
"America today."
The split in the church occurred
in 1S44 over the question of slavery
and Mr. Patten insisted that church
leaders above and below Mason and
Dixon Line believe the time has come
when the breach between the sec-
tions can be healed permanently.
The spirit of union found expres-
sion later in the day, when it was
decided that the -publishing houses,
located tn New York, Cincinnati and
Chicago, should hereafter be incor-
porated under one name, and' be
known as "The Methodist Book
Concern." The action was the result
of instructions issued by the general
conference which met in Baltimore
jn 1908, calling upon the-publishing
interests to seek reincorporation.
PNPEMONIA FOLLOWS A COLD
But never follows tHe use of Fo-
gey's Honey and Tar, which checks
(the cough and expels the cold. M.
Stockwell, Hannibal. Mo., says, "It
beats all the remedies I ever used.
I contracted a bad cold and cough
and was threatened with pneumonia.
One bottle of Foley's Honey and
Tar completely cured me.” No
opiates, just a reliable household
medicine. 11. L. Sbeehey.

Austin, Tex., Feb. 10.—Deputy
Game, Fish and Oyster Commission-
er Emmett Smith stated that he had
taken up the matter of appointing
deputy game wardens in the various
counties of the state. Under the
present system there are something
more than 300 deputy game war-
dens named in all sections of the
state who are to see that the game
laws are observed.
Some of the incumbents will be
retained and others will be replac-
ed. Men who are sportsmen and ar#
interested in seeing the game (laws
enforced and the game protected
will as far as possible be selected.
TORTURED FOR 15 YEARS
by a cure-defying stomach trouble
that baffled doctors and resisted all
remedies he tried, John W. Modders
of Moddersville, Mich., seemed doom-
ed. He had to sell his farm and give
up work. His neighbors said, "he
can't live much longer.” "Whatever
1 ate distressed me.” he wrote, “till
1 tried Electric Bitters, which work-
ed such wonders for me that I can
now eat tilings I could not take for
years. Its surely a grand remedy for
stomach trouble.” Just as good for
tlie liver and kidneys. Every bottle
guaranteed. Only 50c at Lankford-

mous as an Indian fighter.
