LONE BACHELOR WANTS WIFE IN CALIFORNIA Writes to an Evanston Justice in Hope That Some One Will Answer. A letter has Just been received by an Evanston justice of the peace from a lone bachelor m Bl Portal, Cal., who Is seeking a wife. Because of any no- toriety which he might gain as a pos- sible matchmaker, the Evanston offi- cial asks that his name be withheld. He also states that because of his many duties he will not answer the Inquiry and suggests if any women candidates in Evanston aeaire, they can write to the California bachelor without the formal written introduc- tion.

On that day It was hiB right to smoke in the parlor or put his feet on the mahogany table in the library. It was the day when the man who pays all the freight was supposed to come into his own. Few knew of it, and hose who did not know were not told. There were no white carnations pinned to the waists of wives and daughters, although father had worn one on Mother's day in order to avoid domestic trouble. Neither did the ministers dispense eulogies from their pulptts in which the praises of the long suffering father were sounded, although » few preachers did mention that It was Father's day. Father never thought of the day as being an his own, so how could be ex- pect seMetme else to remind hint of .thfe To the Voters of the Tenth Congress- ional District: Washington, D. C, June 21.--The present congress convened for the first time on April 7, 1913. Very soon after the election last fall it was de- termined that the new congress would be called in extra session in March or April for the purpose of revising the tariff. Thereupon, as early as the first part of January of this year the ways and means committee began a series of hearings on the various schedules of the tariff upon which to base their revision. These hearings were held by a committee of a former congress, not the congress which was to revise the tariff. While a general invitation was is- sued to all those Interested in tariff revision to appear at these hearings, as a general rule only those presented arguments who were financially inter- ested directly In either a high or low tariff--manufacturers -on the one hand and Importers on the other. This was the old Bystem over again; ex parte hearings and biased witnesses. The hearings were concluded and the ac* tual work of writing the tariff bill was begun and finished by the democratic members of the ways and means com- mittee of the sixty-second congress be- fore the sixty-third congress came in- to existence, although it was the six- ty-third congress that was supposed to do the revising. Many Inexperienced. It is easy to see how much the mem- bers of the house in the sixty-third congress had to do, or rather did not have to do with the actual framing of the Underwood bill. But, if the bill can be credited or charged to the ways and means committee of the present bouse, it must be said to rep- resent the ideas of the majority of the members of that committee. Of those fourteen democrats, only two were ever concerned with an actual tariff revision, seven had only such experi- ence as was gained In the drawing of the four or five schedules which were passed by the house in the last con- gress, and the remaining five have never had any experience at all in tariff making. The information on which these gentlemen acted when they reported the Underwood bill unanimously was obtained In the hearings last January and February. Chese consumed less than five weeks and not more than two or three days on any one sched- ule. Although, for instance, they had a hearing of only two days on sched- ule K (the woolen schedule) they ig- nored entirely the report of the tariff board, which board had labored near- ly two years on that schedule and had gathered an immense amount of un- biased and accurate data through the labors of trained experts all over the world. Woof Schedule Revived. Think of untrained men attempting to draft a tremendously complicated schedule on a few days' bearings of biased and Interested partisans, and ignoring entirely the fruits of the la- bor of experts on the subject covering a period of years! It is not strange that when we examine the schedule we find them going out of their "way to place a comparatively high protec- tive duty on a particular wool raised largely In the confines of a congres- sional district in the sooth Tspieseated by one of the fourteen dewwratson the ways and means committee while practically all other risr woof » placed on the free list. • What has been said oTtts. woolen Joy filled the hearts of thirty-five poor girls from tike University Settle-, rnent on the South Bide, Chicago, Sun- day when they passed the day as guests of the ladles of the philan- thropic committee ©t the Neighbors' club. The weather man proved to be the friend of thwf^ard working young women for the day and sent the best brand or weather. Nothing was over- looked by the Kenilworth ladies to make the day one replete with enter- tainment in the open for the Chicago girls. Upon their arrival in Kenilworth in the morning, ten automobiles gener- ously supplied by the citizens, met the young women at the station and tor an hour or more whisked them about the pretty suburb and lake shore drives. At noon • luncheon, which might be more appropriately styled a feast, was set for' the girls on the Huribut lawn. During the afternoon more automobile rides were given the young women and also bathing In the lake was enjoyed. Each girl was provided with a box containing all of the fancy viands pro- curable and in addition was presented with a bouquet of flowers. Ice cream, coffee, cake and lemonade were also served by the ladies. The young wom- en were in charge Of Misses Dennlson and Smyth of the University Settle- ment. On account of the rain Saturday the outing for the mothers and children from the Henry Booth settlement on the north side, • Chicago, was post- poned until Tuesday of this week. Twenty-five mothers, many of whom never get away from their drudgery and household cares-on an average of once In six mon$jk«WJth fifty or more children, enjoyed ^h* day the guests of the Neighbors iadjae. They were given the same form* of entertainment and amusement as the young women on Sunday; ■'■'""■■; *';, WILMETTE MMDS DEMAND "MOVIES" "Give us the 'movies' or we will re- sign." Such Is the ultimatum which has been issued by the maids and servants in Wilmette. And it Is said authori- tatively, that the village officials are arranging to accede to the demand. For many weeks, yes months, an or- dinance to regulate the type of build- ing1 which should be constructed for the safety of the patrons of a motion picture show has been before the vil- lage council. The measure met with the same fate as many other proposed codes in that it was tabled or sent to some committee and no report given. .Now the hot summer'months have ar- rived and with the beach growing monotonous, the house servants de- mand some kind of diversion from their tasks during the evening The nearest motion picture has been in Evanston and the trip to and from that city has lost an its novelty for the workers. It is understood that the village officials will soon pass the moving picture show ordinance and the maids will then be given their coveted amusement HIGHLAND PARK DOCTOR DIES1FB0M HIS INJURIES Dr. William H. Lamborn, a former resident of Highland Park, died June 17 on his farm near Loreburn, Sas- katchewan. His death was directly due to injuries he received In a runa- way. He was a graduate of the Unl- versity of Nebraska, University or Chicago, and the medical school of Northwestern university. He also si udied In Vienna. Heireurvtved by a widow and one child.

Fred Meyer was arrested yester- day on a charge of allowing his anto- mobllo to smoke walls being driven A general celebration of the nation's glorious birthday--July. 4--is being planned in practically every town along the north shore. While no great pageants or observances which are aimed to outclass "any former at- tempts" are being planned, the efforts being put forth in the villages shows that the patriotic spirit does not lag and that much fun and amusement will be arranged for the picnickers on that day. ------ In Kenilworth, Winnetka and Glen- coe celebrations are being mapped oat by merchants and patriotic citi- zens. In Wilmette no general observ- ance is conducted by the business men, but members of the Oullmette t-lub attend to the celebration and are planning this year to conduct a good. Jolly picnic in commemoration of the natal birthday. Kenilworth Club Active. The Kenilworth club members will be in charge of the celebration in that village. One of the features of the day will be an automobile parade In the morning. During the afternoon a water carnival at the beach and a baseball game will be held, patriotic exercises will be held la the morning in the assembly hall In Kenilworth avenue. Dr. W. A. Bvans, the noted Chicago health expert, will deliver the principal address and advise the cele- brators on "How to Keep Well." Fire- works will be given In the evening. At Winnetka the merchants have joined together in an effort to give a rousing demonstration. A parade, in which many varied floats and repre- sentations will be the feature, will be glv-n in the morning, with a baseball game, and other athletic events at night. A mammoth display of fire- works will be given in the evening. Glencoe Is Awake. Not to be outdone by their neigh* bore, villagers in Glencoe have deter- mined this year to make the eagle scream so that it will be heard from the heigbta of this quiet little town. The full program of eventa has not yet been completed in Glencoe, but it suffices to say that an enjoyable and entertaining list of events will be given. At the Skokle, Glenview, Lake Shore and other country golf clubs, extensive arrangements are in the forming for the July 4th celebration. Of course, golf will be the order of the day for the grown-ups and a few interesting contests will be s aged. Tennis matches also wilr be included in the athletic events.
