president and the most important of its kind in
the world.
Less than 25 years ago this same Daniel J.
Keefe was a Chicago dock-walloper, using his
rugged strength to shove lun.oer. Recently the
term dock-walloper has come into reproach, for
it suggests now unsteadiness in habits. "Big
Dan" Keefe—or O'Keefe, as he spelled his name
then—was never that kind of a laborer. He
was always the best type of longshoreman and.
while the massive strength of his squat frame
was being used to load and unload the vessels of
the Chicago port his busy brain, endowed with
some of the same virile characteristics that
marked hia physical self, was planning and scheming for the advancement of
himself and his co-laborers.
Strong, almost rough and brutal In his methods, and with the tenacity
of a bulldog, "Big Dan" fought for the organization of the longshoremen, and
he not only won out, but, with the aid of others, formed an international or-
ganization which, including other branches of vessel workers, becnme one of
the biggest labor trusts on record and eventually forced a tight clamp on
maritime commerce.
Mr. Keefe has been the president of the International Longshoremen.
Marine & Transport Workers' association since its formation in 1892, and
he has been president of his local for 20 years. He has been holding office
for nearly 27 years. During that time he has l een one of the principal forces
in perfecting the organization of the huge body. He was recently one of the

KNIGHTED BY KING EDWARD
Sir Thomas Barclay, the well-known Brit-
ish philanthropist and peace advocate, was made
a baronet by King Edward on the occasion of
his majesty's birthday anniversary. The com-
pliment extended to Sir Thomas is one that
is handed out iu lots of a dozen or so by the
British ruler on each birthday, much as other
and earlier rulers have made it a point to open |
up the prison doors to certain classes of convict- j
ed political and civil offenders upon smaller oc- 1
casions.
In the present instance, however, the world j
will agree that the royal honor was well be |
stowed. Sir Thomas has been one of the most j
prominent citizens of the United Kingdom for
his work in behalf of international arbitration,
not less than for his own legal and general learn- 1
ing. He has visited several different countries to urge the adoption of an in- i
ternational peace and arbitration agreement that would result in gradually |
eliminating war. He was in the United States for some weeks a few years
ago urging with great persuasiveness a new treaty with his own country
in the furtherance of fraternal comity and peaceful settlement of all dis-
putes.
Would Limit Standard Buying
Guthrie, Okla.—"The whole course
| of the Standard Oil Company from
! 1872 until this time has been a con-
I tinued violation of law. Its history
j in Oklahoma has not been diffeir>nt
I from its history in Pennsylvania.
| thirty odd yvars of punishment has

| of the difficulty now before me is to
j completely oust the Standard and all
its substantial rights from any kind
j of business iu this state, which I rec-
ommend to you as the policy we
should follow."
Thus in his annual report to the
I governor does Attorney General West
: set forth succinctly his attitude to-
ward the king of trusts. In order to
the end of control he recommends
an amendment to the state anti-trust
law limiting th<' Standard's purchas-
ing power.
YOUNG BRITISH SUFFRAGIST
No woman on the American continent is j
attracting so much attention as Mrs. Philip j
Snowden, the beautiful young British suffragist, j
who has come to the United States to tell Amer- !
lean women how to secure their "rights."
Endowed with a power of oratory and elo- j
qnence which would be even remarkable in a
man, possessed of a personal magnetism that j
can sway tremendous throngs of either sex, and
possessing a physical beauty that makes her
noticed in any assemblage, the young advocate
of suffrage for the gentler sex has found no diffi-
culty in making her mark in this country during
the few weeks she has been in the western hem-
isphere.
Before a brilliant audience of New York's
most prominent men and women a few nights
ago, Mrs. Snowden made her first American speech, and Carnegie hall rang
with her praises.
On first seeing Mrs. Snowden one is simply impressed with her over-
powering beauty. A mass of fair, wavy hair surrounds a face at once placid,
gentle, and humorous, while every line denotes sincerity and power.
She has had a remarkably active life, and although she has spoken in
practically every English industrial center and for ten years has been a
potent factor in the British labor movement, she is well on the sunny side of
30 years.

GOMEZ' AUTHORITY IS SUPREME
Venezuela's Change of Government
Accepted by All Nations
Caracas, Venezuela.—The presi-
dency of Juan Vicente Gomez has
been received by the country at large
officially and unofficially, and Venez-
uela is through with onv of the most
popular revolutions in the annals o(
the republic, a revolution in which
not one drop of blood was shed.
The authority of President Gom^z
i« accepted as supreme. General
Celestine Castro, brother of the for-
mer president, who was chief of the
department of Tachira. turned over
to the new military commander of
that district all the arms, ammuni-
tion, etc., in his possession, amount-
ing to 3,000,000 rounds of ammuni-
tion and 6,000 rifles. Celestine Cas-
tro's acceptance of the nvjw regime
is regarded as final and conclusion
evidence that his brother is no longer
a factor in the present situation.
President Gomez is showing in
many ways his desire to propitiate
ail interests and promote business.
Even if Forced to Make the Best of
Canned Goods, a Most Appetiz-

Wild fowl and tame reign on our
company tables. No winter seems
lust right without a wild duck, a prai-
rie chicken, a partridge or quail, yet
'he prices have gone up so high In re-
cent years that the middle clasn can-
not afford to indulge in game at all.
As duck and chicken farms have In-
creased In numr>b. , better poultry Is
obtainable from the point of texture
of meats, quality and age. We may
have young chickens any day of the
year, and are sure of getting a young
duck, a young turkey or a young goose
if we ask for it. Young fowl simply
roasted are the daintiest meats to he
placed on the table.
Sometimes old fowl are a cent or
I wo cheaper a pound, and are fit for
stews or pies. A chicken with tomato
puree is very good. In the absence of
fresh tomatoes It is possible to buy
tomatoes canned whole, the fruit so
firm that It can be lifted from the tin
without breaking—and be stuffed.
One chicken, half pound of toma-
toes, one small carrot, one small
onion, three cloves, one pint of stock,
one blade of mace, small bunch of
?weet herbs, seasoning of salt and pep-
per, two tablespoonfuls of flour, one
tablespoum'ul of butler, some stuffed
tomatoes.
Skin and joint I he chicjtens neatly:
slice the carrot and onion, put them
it the hot torn of a saucepan with the
sweet herbs, mace and cloves. Lay In
the chicken and pour In the boiling
stock; cook slowly 30 minutes to an
hour, according to the age of the bird.
Meanwhile slice the tomatoes and fry
tlifm In the butler for 15 minutes,
then stir in the Hour, and strain the
stock to the tomatoes; season, rub
through a tine sieve, re-heat and pour
over the chicken so as to coat it thor-
oughly. Garnish the dish with stuffed
tomatoes.
Old Virginia Brunswick Stew.
Cut up two or three squirrels Into
joints and lay in cold water to draw
out the blood. Put a gallon of water
in a large )-ot. add r. tablespoonful
salt and boll five minutes. Add to
the bolliug water six potatoes par-
boiled and sliced, one pint butter
beans, one quart of fresh tomatoes,
one onion sllc«>d and the equivalent
of six cars of corn cut from the cob.
Add the squirrel pieces, cover closely,
and stew gently for two anil a half
hours, stirring frequently from the
bottom. Then add a quart, of fresh
tomatoes, peeled and sliced, or a
quart of the canned tomatoes, with
two teaspoonfuls stignr, and cook an
hour longer. Ten minutes before re-
moving from the tire add a half cup
butter cut iu bits the size of a wal-
nut, and rolled in Hour. Give a final
boil, season to taste with black pep
per and serve.
Hamburg Cheese.
Separate the whites and yolks ol
seven eggs. Beat the yolks with
three-quarters of a pound of sugar tin-
til very light and thick. Add the
grated rind of three lemons and stir
over the fire in a large double boiler
until thick, adding the strained juice
of the lemons. When thick and
smooth add the whites whipped to a
stiff froth and cut and stir for three
minutes longer. Take from the fire
and heap in small glasses.
To Clear Frosted Panes.
In cold weather, when frost gathers
on the windows, dampen a cloth in
wood alcohol and wash them; this re-
moves all frost and leaves them nice
and clear. A little of the • alcohol,
added to water when washing win-
dows, prevents water from freezing
on glass.

To Prevent Rusting.
Tt is better to use wooden pegs In
bath rooms or kitchens where damp
towels or cloths are apt to be hung,
otherwise the linen may rust from the
ii on.
If iron hooks are already in place
&rtri It is not convenient to change
them, give them a coat of white en-
amel paint. It prevents danger of rust-
ing and is much less unsightly against
the paper.
If the linen lias already been rusted
It may be removed by rubbing with
lemon juice and salt.
Iron Rust.
Sprinkle on the spot of iron rust
some powdered alum and arrange the
spot exactly over the spout of a boil-
ing tea kettle. Wash the alum out of
the cloth at once, else the alum would
eat a bole in the fabric.
