Specinl TJIapateli to the Globe WASHINGTON, March 3-The Senate today adopted an amendment to the Omnibus Naval bill authorizing the Secretary of the Navy to restore the frigate Constitution to her original condition at a cost not to exceed $473,723. The frigate is to be restored, but not for active service. The Secretary of the Navy Is authorized to accept contributions which may be offered for the purpose of restoring the frigate. Later the House took similar action. SAVED FROM JUNK PILE BY 0.

W. HOLMES' POEM Built In 1795-P6, the Constitution was nhnut to be sent to the Junk heap In 1S33, when the publication of Dr Oliver Wendell Holmes' "Old Ironsides" aroused an enthusiasm in the old craft's behalf which led to its being restored at Charlestown Navy Yard. In 1858 she was again reconstructed at Portsmouth, Navy Yard, and about 20 years ago again at Charlestown. The Constitution was one of three vessels constituting the beginning of the United States Navy, built between 1791 and 1797 for the protection of American merchant ships In the Mediterranean against Moorish pirates. The Constitution, built at Hart's ship yard, the site of the present Constitution wharf, near the foot of Hanover st, was launched in the presence of a INVIOLATE stronghold or the Moorish pirates, recaptured the ship Philadelphia, which the pirates had taken, and a victorious peace was negotiated In the Constitution's cabin.

The most memorable phase of her career was the War of 1812. beginning in July, that year. First she made a remarkable escape from a fleet of Ave British war vessels which pursued her three days, though hardly a breath of air was stirring and row boats were used to tow the frigate. One month later the Constitution in 30 minutes nearly annihilated one of tin-live vessels of that fleet, the Guerriere. The Constitution's victory had a wonderful effect in stimulating confidence In the diminutive Navy of the United States.

From that time till now the name of the Constitution has been dear to every American. During that war the Constitution captured 19 British ships. The slight damage she usually suffered led to her then being popularly called "Old Ironsides." Many who are interested In the preservation of the old frigate fear that the sum just appropriated by Congress, will not be enough to properly reconstruct and outfit her. That fact probably accounts for the line in tha Washington dispatch saying that the Secretary of the Navy is authorized to accept donations and contributions offered for the frigate's restoration.

Krancis A. Niccolls.

and came within a few votes of electing its other candidate. Mrs Lotta Bradburn Schick. Mrs Ann C. Hoaguo, a member of the School Committee, who was defeated In the February caucus and con-tin ned her contest on nomination papers, was again decisively beaten. Henry Ware, another member of the School Committee, was relected.

Michael Driscoll. who did not figure In the school controversy, in that he had the indorsement of both sides, was given a large vote. He Is Just completing his 51st year as a school committeeman. The vote on School CommUtee. yesterday was: Michael Driscoll, 3838; Francis A.

Xiccolls. M61; Henry Ware, 2372: Mrs Ixtta Bradburn Schick, 2317; Mrs Arm C. Hoague, 2164. Recount Likely The vote of Mr Ware, a present member of the School Committee, and Mrs Kchlck. candidate of the School Association, was so close that in all probability a recount will be petitioned for as soon as the necessary signatures are obtained.

The total vote cast was 4S20. of which 2385 were men and 2435 women. BrooK-line's total registration is about J8.000. Yesterday's contest was not decided until the last precinct was In. Although Mr Driscoll, who had the hearty support of all the voters, took the lead at once and held it.

the results of the polling for the other candidates remained uncertain until Precinct 5. the last to report, turned in Its tally. Although the School Association was only partly successful yesterday, its members believe they won a great victory. The Association appealed to the Committee to rescind Its action of last November. The Committee refnsed to do so and raised the question whether the Judgment of the School Committee should give way- to the wishes of the parents.

Mr Niccolls. the new member of the committee, won the caucus nomination last month, when Mrs Hoague of the committee, was defeated. Mrs Schick also was defeated In the caucus and both continued their contest on nomination papers. Effect Conjectural The election of Mr Niccolls may result in no immediate effect upon the situation at the High School, as he will be only one of the nine members. The vote of the School Committee on the school hours was announced as being unanimous.

But it was stated by one of the opposition members a hearing given by the School ComiiMttee some time ago, that If parents were not successful this year, they wjuld continue the fight every year, until there was a definite change in the attitude of the board. Three members of the School Commltte come up for election every year. The onlv other contest, exclusive of contests In eight of the nine precincts for town meeting members, was that for the Board of Auditors. William J. Love and David B.

Church, present members, were reelected. Fergus J. Hickey, who won the nomination on stickers for the third place In the caucus, was elected thirj member, defeating Robert M. Boehntr. The vote on auditors: Church, 3018; Love.

3029; Hickey. 2797; Boehner, 1741. The contests for town meeting members resulted in some unusual situations. Although Mrs Schick by yester. day's figures was unsuccessful In "her contest for the School Committee, she led the ticket in her precinct.

Precinct 8, for town meeting member, this being her first time up for that office. Mr Niccolls was elected to the School Committee, but failed to win a place as town meeting member in I'recinct I. This also was his first oandidacy for the office. Dr Arthur A. Cushing and Benjamin K.

Hough, present members of the School Committee, who were candidates for town meeting members In Mr Niccolls' precinct, were elected. Dr Cushing headed the ticket and Mr Hough came In seventh.

This announcement was made todav by Mr Hewett after he had received a letter from Judge William Rowe, counsel for Basset, In which the judge forbade the issuing: of the license on the ground that eassett has applied to the courts for appointment as his mother's conservator. The marriage license was applied for five tlays ago by the couple. The time within wlileh the license may be issued on the application expired todav. As the couple did not appear to get it, Mr Hewett decided to postpone the issuance of it until after Bassett's petition has been heard by the Brockton Court, on March 23.

He paused, braced his feet, and swears that the movement was so perceptible that the baby was rocked to sleep In his arms. Up in Burlington. Vt. another was" sampling something that wasn't hon-est-to-goodness. The floor moved.

Jn a moment the second quiver arrived and the tables moved out He looked rather surprised at his strength and remarked audibly upon It. By the time the third shock came he w-as outride and on his knees on the sidewalk, convincedhat the prophecy of the end of the world was OK, but a little previous. When nothing more happened, he slunk back and surreptitiously threw a bottle into the street. It may have been only "home-brew." but Its kick was entirely too much.

New Haven, Conn, reports considerable damage. "Three fingers" of real, honest-to-goodness whisky crashed to the floor of a cafe when the would-be drinker became frightened when the shock occurred and let the glass of precious fluid drop from his nerveless ringers. Israel Sisco of East Bridgewater telephoned tire chief of police that somebody was stealing his hens. Offlcr Campbell was sent to investigate and he found that the henhouse had been turned around and the hens had been liberated and were flying 'wildly around the yard, an apparent result of the earthquake. The family of Howard W.

Russell at New Haven, Conn, felt sure that the "11th hour" had come. Slowly and regularly there boomed through the house. 11 times, the tones of a long-still, forgotten chime. It was a clock In the atUc which had not ticked the passage of time for many a year. The motion of the house in the quake had set the old clock going and it struck as regularly as in the days when it was the king of the parlor mantel.

The flock of 90 hens owned by James Clark of Willinmstown didn't care much for the earthquake and are showing their disapproval. Previous to the quake Mr Clark had been getting from 75 to 80 eggs a day. After the Saturday-night shudder, which shook most of the hens from their roosts, the birds went on strike and he gets less than a dozen eggs a day.
