Show TABLE PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT --j.- A RISING CONGRESSMAN John Joseph Fitzgerald, or Fitzie, as he is known among those who enjoy his friendship. Is one congressman who is making a name for himself in the present alleged do nothing session. John Joseph is a member of the minority and a loyal follower of John Sharp Williams, hence he is in his element in these closing days of the session, when John Sharp i3 making campaign material for the Democracy. John Joseph is gradually, but surely, working his way to leadership on the Democratic side. While Congressman De Armond of Missouri is the man upon whom will descend the mantle of John Sharp Williams when the latter goes to take the senate seat to which the Mississippi Democrats elected him last fall, the Democracy will want one or two others to bear the brunt of battle on the floor. Fitzgerald appears to be sure of being one of these. Fitzgerald was born in Trolleydodgerville March 1 0, 1872. After a course in Frooklyn public schools he went to Manhattan college, graduating with the degree of bachelor of arts. Then he studied law in the New York law school, and was admitted to the New York bar when 21. It wasnt long before he became interested in Brooklyn politics. He was a delegate to the national Democratic convention in Kansas City in 1500, when W. J. Bryan was nominated for the second time. He was then a representative in congress, having been elected from the Seventh New York district to the Fifty-sixtcongress in 1898, when only 26 years of age. , to the He was Fifty-nintand Sixtieth congresses by big majorities. h Fifty-eighth- ASSAILANT IN AIR NEW AND APPETIZING WAYS OF SERVING EGGS. y Fifty-sevent- ART OF THROWING DELICACIES h AMEER OF AFGHANISTAN The girl who looked to be about 1& and who had on a big brown veil and tan shoes hastily put up a hand to her hair ns the young man who wore vio lent heliotrope hosiery and had collegt colors about his hat rounded the cor ner.

Then the young man coughed to hide his confusion. I thought you Er he began. dropped something. I was going to pick it up. I am in a very great hurry, said the young woman severely, yet standing still. "You always are, said the young man with the college colors, sadly. It is too bad. I thought if you had time we might sort of explain things and You may have things to explain, interrupted the young woman, giving her veil a jerk. "In fact, there are several things I can think of that need explaining but as for myself it Is different. I like that!" said the young man, Just as if I were the only warmly. one to blame! But I know what you think of me, all right! I dont see, she said, icily, "why you should be at all Interested in what I think of you! In fact, I am quite Bure you are not! You dont care BeIlabibullah Khan, ameer of Afghanistan, of God, Lamp of the Congregation," Light of the Faith, and Seeker After Gods Help, is waging an ofheial war against British India. He has not declared war yet, but he has allowed 20,000 of his soldiers to invade India and attack the frontier guards. The first result of this indiscreet act will probably be the withdrawal of the subsidy of $600,000 a year he has been drawing from the British government; the second a Bound thrashing and the third may be the conwithdrawal of the title, "Your Majesty, ferred upon him by King Edward when the ameer visited India lately. He was invited to India in the hope that the sight of an Asiatic nation of 300,000,000 people prospering and peaceable under British rule would reduce Ills bumptiousness, for he had begun to entertain the idea that his capital, Kabul, was the center of the universe. The sight of the riches of India seems only to have stirred up his cupidity and the predatory instincts of his robber ancestors. The ameer is an autocratic ruler and has an army of 50,000 men. This by no means accounts for his full fighting force, for every man of the 4,000,000 population is a born fighter and goes about armed at all times, ready to defend his own life and take that of his neighbor if a good opportunity olTers.

I am just as much Interested in your opinion of me as you are in loved I REAL RULER OF IRELAND Cardinal Michael Logue, archbishop of Armagh and primate of all Ireland, the man who is regarded by all, even the British government, as the "real ruler of Ireland, quite appropriately took a leading part in the centennial celebration of the archdiocese of New York. Not only is he a fellow countryman of the majority of the people of the diocese, but he is the direct ecclesiastical descendant of St. Patrick, who was the first bishop of -Armagh; the Armagh cathedral, like that of New York, is named after that saint, and Armagh is Archbishop Farleys home county. Cardinal Logue is possessed of the truest sort of patriotism, a patriotism that urged him In the first speech he ever delivered in America for this is his first visit to this country to urge his hearers never to forget the old sod, but not to allow their love for their native land of their fathers to render them less devoted citizens of the land of their adoption, where no man could say that he had not a chance to get on in the world. It was Cardinal Logue to whom the British government owes the defeat of its half-wahome rule measure. John E. Redmond had undertaken to have it adopted by the national convention. The opposition of Timothy Healy, William OBrien and other politicians would have had little weight, for the people knew the antipathy that exists between the two factions, had it not been for the pronouncement of Cardinal Logue that the bill was utterly unsatisfactory and that any politician who endeavored to secure its acceptance by the convention would incur the grave suspicion that he was endeavoring to deceive his countrymen in the interests of the ministry. The archbishop, of Dublin and the bishops of Kildare and Llmeijcfc joined In the cardinal's denunciation and the measure was killed. Cardinal Logue was created a cardinal in 1893 when he succeeded the late primate, whose coadjutor he had been. IIo Is a stern disciplinarian, as some of hi3 clergy know, and will tolerate no shirking of duty. y . SON TO RIVAL KING EDWARD Mrs. Bradley Martin is in the limelight once more, not as giving a ball that cost more than any other ball ever given in America, or as managing mamma marrying her daughter to a foreign earl, but as the mother of the director-genera- l of New York society, the man who has extended Its bounds to include 2,000 of the elite instead of the original 400 Frederick Townsend Martin, better known among hi3 Intimates as Bachelor Martin, he being a single man. The passing of Ward McAllister and the panic left New York society demoralized, and it was Bachelor Marlin who pulled it through the past season. Now he is going to England to plan entertainments for his sister, the countess of Craven, to devise novelties to give a fillip to fho jaded appetites of English society. It is no light undertaking to go into exclusive English society in the role of prolessional entertainer, so much different are their tastes from ours, but this young man goes without any qualms whatever, for ho has supreme confidence in himself. He has tact, originality and determination, and a total lack of and does not fear to rival that prince of the art of entertaining King Edward himself. Mr. Martin has been the Ward McAllister for the threo great func f the year the theatricals in which Mrs. George Gould, Mrs. Frances 1 and Kyrle Iiellcw played the characters, the function which Mr. Martin the Gould Tea; the reception to the Duchess dUzes, and the tea at t Mrs. Elinor Glyn, Btliie Burke and Bishop Potter figured prominently.

The manner in which his s I post-tio- body is balanced, midway across yoUr shoulders (again the question of the fence and the see-saboard), the impetus of his rush and your rise are such that you can thus swing into the air a man of double your own weight. The whole thing depends on speed! accuracy and (above all) on balancing his body correctly across your shoulders. When once you have him thus in the air you can drop him any way you please or dash him head downward, if you prefer. Dont let him seize you with his free hand during the process. The trick Is, as I said, far easier than it sounds. There are several nerve centers in various portions of the human body, which, if struck hard, will cause for the moment a sort of temporary paralysis, or which pain or jar that organ for instant action. One of these vulnerable spots, as I have explained to you, is the solar plexus. Another Is the point of the A third is the top of the jaw. Remembering this, try the following trick if hard pressed by a street loafer who is trying to practice unfair meth- ods of fighting; When he steps close catch the hi-- , ceps of both his arms in such a way as to prevent him for the moment from striking. As you do so bring' forward either foot, toe upward. Throwing the whole weight of the body on this foot, bring down the heel with all your force onto the top of his instep about midway between the point where the toes join the foot and the spot where the front part of the foot ends and the ankle starts. As you do this thrust him backward and land at will on his jaw. Be sure to have the other foot planted in such a way that if you miss your aim you will not lose your balance. 1 have seen men faint from the pain and shock of this foot blow. Again, if your opponent rushes you, striking at you, seize his extended arm by the wrist with both hands, Heel on Opponent's Instep, wheel about so that you are facing in the same direction as he (his imprisoned arm being drawn over your shoulder and still held by the wrist in both your hands), bend suddenly forward above the waist, bracing your feet, and pulling his arm forward sharply and with all your strength. The impetus of his own rush, aided by the pull you give his arm, will send him over your head to the ground. Oce thing more: The street fight er, as I have said, will kick. Be careful to stand in such a way that his kicks cannot land on your abdomen. Stand somewhat more to one side than in regular boxing, and keep your left leg extended in such a way as partly to protect the abdomen and to receive any kick that may be aimed I 1 x thereat.
