Lady bank, Scotland, October
25.—Premier Asquith, straight
from the recent meetings of the
British Cabinet, gave to the
country tonight the eagerly
awaited decision of the Govern-
ment on the Irish problem, re-
cently befogged by various pro-
posals for conferences of politi-
cal parties and by divergent
utterances of Cabinet members.
Premier Asquith unhesitating-
ly announced his decision to es-
tablish a Parliament in Ireland
in accordance with his promise
and also, if the opposition declin-
ed his suggestion, that he would
use armed forces in carrying the
law into effect.

If the statutes passed by Par-

Premier, to assert the authority

admitted it was the duty of the
Government to deal respectfully
with the genuine sentiment of
the minority, even though it be-
lieved the apprehension was
groundless.

Dallas!, Tex., Oct. 25.—As was
anticipated, the progressive-pro-
hibition democratic conference
held in JWoodman Hall today
backed alway from the original
proposition that a preference
primary should be held to elimi-
nate a/ti save one prohibition can-
didate for governor.
/Instead, it resolved to call up-
Xthe p. p. democrats through-
b the state to express their
& choice through precinct mass
p meetings on the first Saturday
in March, 1914, the local views
thus expressed to be concerted
through county conventions to be
held on the first Saturday in
April, and through a state con-
vention to be held at Dallas on
the the third Tuesday in April.
Provision was made for an exe-
cutive committee, with Judge A.
W. Walker of Dallas chairman, to
handle the situation generally.
He \to appoint a committeeman
The resolutions make no re-
quirements of candidates. Seem-
ingly they are free to announce
in advance that they will submit
to the expressions secured in the
manner thus provided, or to hold
aloof until the result has been
announced and then make known
their attitude. Seemingly the
way is open for Messrs. Lane
and Mayes, neither of whom at-
ended today’s conference, to stay
out or to cut in at any time, as
may seem best to them.
Cullen F. Thomas was easily
the idol of the pro conference.
His speech aroused the delegates
to the wildest outburst of ap-
plause. Samuel Palmer Brooks,
the distinguished president of
the Baylor University, did not
enthuse the crowd. The man
who Napoleon looked like had it
all his own way. Congressman
Horace Vaughn, also State Sena-
tor V. E. Collins, were prominent
figures as well as prominent talk-
ers.

City of Mexico, Oct. 26.—Elec-
tion day proved to be one of the
quietest Sundays the capital has
seen in mouthy. No official fig-
ures of any character are avail-
able, but according to estimates
made” from afeanvass of several
polling places during the day the
total votes cas£< by 80,000 regist-
ered voters in the federal dis-
trict will not exceed 5,000. Mili-
tary patrols were out during the
day, but no effort by the military
to attempt in the slightest man-
ner to influence balloting was
reported.
, Catholic party leaders here as-
sert the election in the federal
district, both for presidential
candidates and for candidates
for membership in congress,
was entirely in their favor, and
that the Catholic candidates were
elected. Gamboa heads the'
Catholic ticket. Their organiza-
tion first began to take form for
the congressional elections dur-
ing the regime of Madero, and
leaders have maintained and im-
proved it siuce that time.
The Diaz ticket is stated to
have run second. The Calero
and De la Fuente tickets got few
votes, as their parties had not
registered here in time, hence
no ballots were printed forthem.

of the new Evangelical Lutheran
church of New Ulm last Sunday.
Pastor Szillat was assisted in
conducting the ceremony by
Rev. Apfelbach of Brenham,
who with' his family were guests
of the church.
A sermon by Rev. Apfelbach
was the main feature of the
morning ser vice, which followed
the usual line of s'ueh occasions.
About one o’clockthe after-
noon the members and ..guests
were regaled with a barbfeope
dinner of beef and mutton. Thik\
was followed by an afternoon
service of appropriate program.
A part of the afternoon program
was a concert by the New Ulm
City band, under leadership of

Dr. Olson measured an applicant for
the fire department. His height was
5 feet 7% inches. The rules require
that firemen must be 5 feet 8 inches
tall. The aspirant went away sorrow-
fully, but returned the next day wear-
ing a confident smile. Dr. Olson took
his height. It was 5 feet 7% inches.
He stood back and looked his man
over. Then he placed a hand on the
candidate’s scalp. It felt “pulpy.”
"Why, I was born that way,” insist-
ed the man under examination. /
“G’wan," protested Olson. “That is J
water injected under the scalp and you
still lack a quarter of an inch. You
can’t get enough water in it to make
it, either. You’re out.
“It’s the first case of water on the
brain,” said Widdowson, “but we have
encountered two other stunts of the
same kind. The first was a trick of
doing a bastinado on the soles of the
feet. That may have worked a few
times before we caught it. Then a
new one bobbed up in the last police
examination.
“One fellow in the dressing room
got another to hit him on the head
| with a shoe brush.”
