That is the Name Gladstone Calls Joe Cham'
berlain in the House of Commons.
LONDON, July 25.-John Redmond,
leader of the Parnellites, moved an
amendment to the effect that the Irish
legislature should receive immediate
control over Irish taxes, as was proposed
originally by Mr.. Gladstone, instead OF
being forced to leave the taxes in British
hands for six years, as was stipulated In
the new financial scheme.
Mr.. Gladstone said the government
could not accept the amendment. Such
change would not accord with the re-
vised and simplifed plan. Mr.. Balfour,
leader OF the Unioniets, supported the
government in it's opposition to the
amendment.
Thomas Sexton, anti Parn: lite, argued
that the transitional provisions Ut the
scheme probably would be advantageous
to Ireland. He appealed to John Red
mond not to push the amendment to q
division.
Joseph Chamberlain, leader OF the
Liberal Unionists, moved to make per-
manent the provisional arrangement that
Irish taxes should be collected for six
years by the imperial government. In
speaking of his motion, MIR. Chamberlain
denounced the government for trucking
to the nationalists. These gentlemen, he
said, would be masters OF the situation
after SIX years, and would be able to do
pretty much as they pleased. The Irish
government would then conduct Irish
finances SO rs to give a good pretext for
wrioging still further. The financial
scheme as now presented put premium
on extravaganza administration by the
Irish legislature.
" hen the premier rose few seats were
vacant. Mr.. Gladstone began by COM
pairing Mr.. Chamberlain's attitude to-
ward the bill with the proverbial atti-
tude of the "devils advocate" whose
function it WAS, he said, to seize eagerly
on every human failing and to miscon-
strue everything capable of naisconstruc'
ton. The fling at Chamberlain pleased
the Irish members greatly and they
greeted it with cheers. Several shouted
sdevips advocate ACROSS the house at
Mr.. Chamberlain, and others repeated
the gibe frequently during the rest OF
Mr.. Gladstone's crushing denunciation OF
his former friend and political ally. At
ter repelling the charge that the Irish
might eventually do as they pleased un-
der the provisions Of the bill and that il
in realty settled nothing, the premier
turned toward Mr.. Chamberlain and in q
voice of anger and indignation said:
"The right honorable gentleman has
brought into public life one of the most
mischievous practices-the practice zot
continually and deliberately, with the
utmost confidence in his own infalliblhty
ascribing to mon who have the right t.
stand on the same level with him, who
were at one time his colleagues and were

ONE OF HER MANY CRIMES.

st. Louis Claims Resident "the Man
That Wrote Ta-ra-ra."
How many people are there who
know that the popular air of "Ta-ra-ra
Boom decay" originated in St. Louis,
and how many who hum it know what
that origin was? There are few in
deed. In fact, the origin or author
ship Of the air and song is matter
which has been discussed at length
without any satisfactory conclusion
being reached The facts were given
to reporter by a gentleman who
knows whereof he speaks. The air,
he says, was composed by an old.
blind musician named Hanley, who. as
one way of making a living, played
the piano IN several questionable re-
sorts. The '"Ta-ra-ra Boom decay"
was an Imagination to which there
was very exciting dance, and it at
once became a favorite among the
habitues of these places. Then the
bootblacks and the messenger boys
got it and it was whistled around the
streets The respectable young man
or young lady who unwittingly
hummed it. however. was rewarded
by plying glance only. or was ad-
monished not to repeat it. as it wasn't
nice or respectable. 1t wouldn't go in
polite society. TWAS through hearing
St. Louis blootblack whistle it that
the attention of Alexander Spencer, q
theatrical musical director was at
tracted toward it. He at once noticed
its catchiness, and. taking hold of it,
set words to it. But nobody seemed
to think anything of it Nobody
wanted it, and when it was tried on
the public it fell as fat as a pancake.
Then it rested in Mr. Spencer's trunk
a couple of years, during which time
he mourned the public's lack of APP
probation. Suddenly it doomed up
and gained prominence and popular
ity that even Mr.. Spencer had not
dreamed of. much less the blind piano
player who had really originated it.

Origin Of O1-Tail Soup.

During the reign of terror in Paris,
in 1898, many of the nobility were
reduced to starvation and beggary.
The abattoirs sent their hides fresh to
the tanneries without removing the
tails; and in cleaning them the
tails were thrown away. One of
these noble beggars asked for
a tail, and it was willingly given
to him; he took it to his 10 lgings and
made (what is now famous) the first
dish of ox-tail soup. He told others
of his good luck, and they annoyed
the tanners so much that price was
put upon them.
