REFUNDING DUTIES UNDER THE DECISION

said this afternoon that report telegraphed from
Chicago that arrangements are being made to COM
promise for S50o0o00 the claims against the Govern
ment for excess Of duties collected hat materials
is incorrect. He said the only possible foundation for
such report was the consideration by the Depart
ment of proposition to have the Board Of General
Appraisers determine the class Of materials entitled
to refund under the decision OF the United States
Supreme Court. No such reference, however, was
made. Efforts have been made TO aeree upon list
Of articles entitled 10 refund under that decision, but
50 far without success. 1t is hoped. however that
an agreement on this point may be reached before
long and the refunding Of duties resumed. 1t was
suspended pending a settlement of this question.

The yy.fe's Obedience.

Whole denominations of Christians
have dropped the word "obey" from
the marriage service. The great Ro-
man Catholic church never had it in
serted, and even in the Episcopal
church it is occasionally omitted-I
have personally known several in
stances; or when retained, it is con-
stantly explained by the parties. con-
ccrncd. or even by clergymen, as a
thing to be taken with mental reserva-
ton. Two things have contributed to
this-the constant increase in the num-
Der of women who earn incomes of
their own, and the vast progress of the
higher education. Either of these ex-
periences very soon expands the wings
of strong feminine nature, and re-
turn to the chrysalis is thenceforth i'm
possible 1t is out of the question to
give woman equal education and equal
property rights and yet keep her in the
PROSTATE attitude she occupied when
her earnings belonged to her husband,
and when the law denied her the safe
guard called "benefit of clergy on the
ground that it was not supposable she
could read or write.-Harper's Bazar.

but they had gone too far to back out,
so they lifted 1t up to the nest and
bird held it in place while Mr.. Catbird
took long dried grasses and bound it
on. BY the time the dwellers in Bird
Grove were stirring the work was done,
and Mr.. ard Mrs. Catbird started out in
search of breakfast. When they re.
turned they saw that there was some
unusual excitement in the trees near
their home. On coming nearer they
saw strange crowd. Several mem
bers of the Warbler family, Mr.. and
Mrs. Blue Jay, the despised Orioles,
Miss Pewee with her admirer tagging
close to her heels, the Buntings, and
many others were talking in an excited
manner. A noisy English Sparrow
was there making himself conspicuous
as a newspaper reporter. A little epart
from the rest, not perching, but con-
tinually on the wing, was Mr.. Hum
'mingbird, who, though small, was a
well-known architect. While the rest
were talking he seemed to be making
minute study of the curious dwelling.
When Mr. and Mrs. Catbird appeared
they were greeted with food of ques-
tions. They were SO puffed up with
pride that they disdained to answer, SO
the crowd soon broke up and went to
their worl.
The very day after this new display
of pride, a gentleman and lady came
walking along near the bush where
this wonderful nest was built. The
lady, glancing up, said: ''Why, what is
that curious thing up there?" They
stopped, and after looking minute,
the gentleman burst out laughing and
replied: "Why, that is my collar.
There is the name, James McNab, on
the outside. That is an ingenious piece
of work. All! my bird, we shall have to
make this our contribution to the Natur.
al History museum. If can afford t.
lose the collar, you can afford to give
up the nest, and you will be punished
for stealing besides.' At this Mrs.
Catbird few off the nest. Her terrified
mate Joined her piercing cries. but the
man coolly tore down the nest and
walked off with it. Here they were,
just at the time when Mrs. Orioles
babies were peepirg out of the shell,
left without even home. They felt
very sad, but they knew it was a just
punishment for their pride and theft
They resolved to begin life anew, and

could be. Until one morning when Mr..
oriole poured forth an unusually tri-
umphant song. Mr.. Catbird could en-
dure it no longer. His Mockingbird
blood grew hotter and hotter. and he
resolved to put that ''squawking neigh

sneakingly perched himself where he
could be heard but not seen, and imi-
tated exactly the notes which Mr..
oriole had just sung, only at the end Of
every strain he burst forth into the
most contemptuous, catlike meow,

song seem more insignificant, he
poured forth such magnificent strains
that all Bird grove came out to listen.

They could not imagine what they had
done to merit such abuse, but they re-

completed, Mr.. Catbird came home one
day with feathers rutfled and so ex-

morning he was flying near house
when he saw a freshly ironed linen
collar lying on the ground under a
window. Not being posted in such
things, he supposed it was piece of
marble. The black characters on the
outside near the bottom only added to
its beauty. He resolved to capture it
for stone front to his house. He
knew it would be stealing, but the

Catbird could scarcely keep from cry
