Tho Washington correspondent
for the Chicago Record-Herald says:
Friends of Speaker Champ Clark
will urgo upon the democrats the
selection of Bennett Claik, the 24-year-old
son of the speaker, as par
liamentarian of the house of the
Sixty-third congress. If this selec
tion Is made and Speaker Clark is
re-elected, he will become subject to
the rulings of his son.
Judge Charles R. Crisp, son of
former Speaker Crisp, is parliamen
tarian of the house, but he was
elected to congress from Georgia and
will take his place on the floor after
March 4.
The correspondent for the New
York Wdrld sent to his newspaper
the following story: In the White
House grounds, about 2 o'clock in
the morning Joaquin Calvo, son of
Senor Don Joaquin Calvo, minister
from Costa Rica, and Francis P.
("Pete") Dailey, city editor of a
local newspaper, fought a ring
battle which lasted ten minutes.
The argument which resulted in
Calvo's challenging Dailey arose in
the course of a telephone conversa
tion regarding a piece of news.
When the antagonists met in the
secluded corner of the White House
grounds selected for the battle,
Dailey opened hostilities with a right
swing to Calvo's eye. Ten minutes
later the crowd was whistling "Come
Back to Erin," and Calvo's seconds
were hauling him to the nearest all
night restaurant in search of raw
beefsteak.

Texas as saying:
"I understand that three resolu

next week. As I will Bit as judge in
the matter for I am on the rules

"Second, as to whether the Sher

in the pact between the Grand Trunk

Hartford railroad.
"Third, an inquiry as to whether
the power of the money trust was

President Harrison, within a week
after his inauguration, suspended

"Coming at the time and under

Mr. Hull, "this order of the presi

it places this immense horde of re

to its administration, extension and

An Associated Presa dispatch says:
Under the flags of the twenty-one re
publics of the western hemisphere,
Thanksgiving day mass, the fourth
of its kind, was celebrated in St.
Patrick's Roman Catholic o.hnrnh
here. President Taft, cabinet offi
cers, Chief Justice White of the su
preme court and other high officials
represented the United states while
the diplomatic corps here from the
other American republics was
present practically in a body.
Peace was the central theme of the
service. The president was not ac
companied, as is usual, even when
he attends religious meetings, by his
military aide, . but was met at the
door, escorted to his seat at the front
of the church and attended while
there by a white laced messenger of
peace, the Bev. Mr. Smythz, an assis
tant at St. Patrick's.
Archbishop Keane of Dubuque,
who delivered tho sermon, paid high
praise by Implication to the efforts
which President Taft has put forth
to further the cause of international
peace. He declared the peace idea
was growing.
Cardinal Gibbons occupied a scar
lot throne on tho right of the altar
in the sanctuary.
The Pan-American march was
played aa a recessional by the organ
and orchestra. It included portions
of tho national airs of the various
