for put tin (( piraNiiie upon tne nionarcn.

Theorising of this sort la accompanied
by declarations that the unkontat policy
will be to amend In the commons the 'bill
for hamstringm tha peers." and If Mr.
Aaqulth will not accept the amendments
to hava the lorda "do their own duty fear
lessly." There Is a prediction that the laborltee
will vote with the torlea aicalnat the pream
ble of the veto bill on the ground that It
waa Inserted to "conrllate the whins in
the cabinet."
All arrangements for the momentous busi

are Joined the greater by a supreme am
bition to "put tha lorda where they be
long." Mr. Asquith will be held by each
to the strictest letter of his promise In
every Instance. A small defection must
prove a grave disaster to his program. It
has coma to light that members of tho
Welsh radical parliamentary arty bave
bound themselves In wilting to revolt if
Mr. Aaqulth does not follow the veto lim
itation bill with a measure disestablishing
tha church in Wales. ,
First Plank In I'lalforaa.
Falling In this, the Welshmen will be
come "nationalists In the sense that the
Irish members are," Mr.. IJoyd-George Is
involved In tha pledge.
Payment of members of parliament Is the
first plank In the labor platform.
George N. Barnes, speaking for the labor
lies, warns Mr. Aaqulth not to bring a
"partial measure paying only poor men
and thua working out to tho advantage
of the rich."
T. P. O'Connor, speaking for the Irish,
says ha believes he "la at thla moment
earning my first quarter salary."
Tha brilliant Irishman holds that pay
ment Is a necessary condition precedent
to. "the creation of a body of professional
politicians, men with nothing to attend
to but politics, Ilka Peel, Gladstone, and
In our own day, Mr. Balfour." lie denies
emphatically that there Is any alliance be
tween the Irish and tha laborltes "except
such aa arises from a certain unity of
view."

hotel to Arkansas avenue that he saw him
enter the place.
Friends of Mr. Ashhurst are completely
mystified at his disappearance. In recall
ing his everyday life none of them could
point to a single thing that would cause
hi in to drop out of atght.
His relations with everyone at the post
office, It waa said today, were pleasant, and
what accounts passed through his hands
were In a aatlafartory condition. Rumors
that he had private financial troubles are
denied.
The belief that the missing postmaster
was drowned at the million dollar pier was
strengthened when word was received from
Atlantic City that an employe of the pier
tonight found a cane hanging on the rail
ing of the structure. .
This la said to bo similar to the one Mr.

a derby hat when he was last seen and
this Is now being searched for.

Miss Tarbell Gives
Views Upon Women
First and Most Important Duty is to
State in Rearing- of Good
Citizens.
NEW YORK, Feb. 5. (Special Telegram )
The most valuable cltlxen in the world
is the woman who stays , at home and
properly bring up a family ot children.
"Women can serve the modern state In
every capacity, except as soldiers or sail
or. "Women have been the Indirect enactor
of some of th best laws In this country.
"Tha married woman should not do
wage-earning work outalda her home, un
less through actual necessity.
"To my mind the whole duty of woman
may be summed up in five words to stick
to her Job."
Those are some of the conclusions of Miss
Ida M. Tarbell, biographer ot Standard Oil,
author of a classic "Life of Lincoln," and
perhaps th clearest woman thinker of
America.
"A woman's flrct and most Important
duty to the state," Miss Tarbell saya in an
interview, "is the same as It always has
been since th beginning of things the
rearing of good clUiens.
"The woman who doea her whole duty
to the children she brings Into the world is
herself the most important citlaen .of that
world. . I .can't make that too emphatic. -
"There Is no achievement, literary, artis
tic, what you will, which a woman can
perform that 1 of th came vital signifi
cance to the nation as a family of men
tally, morally, physically healthy boy and
girls. There is no profession containing
auch real honor for a woman as that of
bom making. And it th great natural job
for tho majority of ua. Let ua stick to it,
we can't do anything better.
"Of course ther ar women who give up
marriage for th sake of other people, for
smaller brothers and sisters or for invalid
parents. I don't think we realise how many
such sacrifices ar made and we certainly
may not blame these women for not ful
filling th duty of wifehood and mother
hood. "They still erv th slate In many
way. The highest service they can per
form is to become teachers."
"Do you think more women should be
trained for public service?" was asked.
"More of the unmarried and unlikely to
marry women should receive auch training.
A married woman, unless forced by neces
sity, should confine her labors to her home.
She will find enough to do there, unless
she is an exceptionally gifted person who
can perforin publlo and private dutlea with
out slighting either. A married woman
with children should always remember that
tha greatest possible servlc Is already laid
upon her."

Prince George is
Accused of Being
in Plot to Murder
Charged with Trying to Blow Up the
Old Austrian Emperor and
Hiring Accomplices.
BELGRADE. Bervla. Feb. . (Bpi!a!
Cablegram.) Prince George is again in a
scrape and thla time under tba charge of
trying to blow up the old Austrian emperor.
Th prince, himself, absolutely refuse to
give any details, even to his nearest and
dearest friends, but hia supposed accom
plice, a gunsmith, a German and an Aus
trian, all In one subject, lias signed the
written accusatlona which the Austrian po
lice set before him' yesterday. These docu
ments charge the gunsmith, Buchele, with
high treason at the Instigation of Prince
Georfce and of receiving money from him.
One alleges that Buchele received S1.300
from the prince In return for a guarantee
that he would throw a bomb at the Aus
trian emperor; the othfr that Buchele paid
14.00 of the prince'' money tor certain Aua
tiians for "political purposes." Buchele
signed both documents and made no com
ment excel "th print- mad me do It."
Soma two week ago. Dr. Spates, chief
of the Semlin police force, reported to the
foreign ministry ot Vienna that he knew
Prince Orange waa In the habit of cross
ing over to the Austrian territory in a small
open boat after dark and taking Buchele
back with him.
Dr. Speiss found that George and Bu
chele, after landing safely on the Servian
aide, walked quietly up to the prince's own
private palace, where Buchele often stayed
until far tn th night when the prince j
would row him hark and deposit him safely 1
on the Austrian side In a field some way
from the town.
Orders immediately came to watch
Burhele'a next night trip, and arrest him
when he relanded on Austrian soil and th
prince had rowed away. This waa don
a night or ao ago, though nobody but Bu
chele and the police knew of It until today.
Speiss found ln rimlnatlng papers on his
prisoner and declares ther are many more
