DIFFERENCE OF OPINION
House Conferees Claim That Senator'S
Are Weakening In Their Pre-
viOus Demand.
SENATORS DO NOT SAY SO,
But Claim Matters Stand Very Much
as They Have Been---Caucus
on Thursday.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The tariff
deadlock is breaking mp, and after being
together two hours Of the afternoon the
house conferees said positively that
there would be an agreement this week.
One Of the conferees added that the
house men stood 10 their position and
that the agreement would be with sub
stantial concessions to the house.
It was the first time, said the conferee,
that the senators had shown q disposi-
ton to meet the house half way.
Representative Springer said 40
names had been signed 10 the petition
for house Democratic caucus on the
tariff Thursday. It takes 45 signatures
to secure q call. He says the list viii
reach rs by Thursday.
Senate Conferees Not So Hopeful.
The senate conferees do not seem to
be SO hopeful Of q speedy agreement,
and say that it stands very much as II
has stood all along. The house confeees
have been insisting that IL the bill is re-
ported back ON the lines which they
propose, that il will be found that there
are votes enough i'm the senate to pass
the bib, and have been urging the sem
ate conferees to give the bill trial in
the senate on these lines. They assert
that upon no other basis can an agree
ment be reached. 1t is not claimed that
the senate conferees agree TO any such
arrangement, but the house members
are hopeful that something of the kind
win be done.

Opportunities.

Some one has said that "every face
ought to be beautiful at 40," and another
that ''no old person has q right to be
ugly, because he has had all his life in
which to grow beautiful" That is to
say that life's opportunities Of noble
ness, of even 40 years of opportunity, IL
well used, are enough to make 80 much
beauty within that it cannot help COM
ing to the surface in graceful habits of
the nerves and muscles. The transfg-
uration of pleasant smile, kindly light
ings to the eyes, restful lines of self con-
troll about the lips, pure shining Of the
face as great thoughts kindle inwardly--
these things no parent makes inevitably
ours and no fitful week or two of good
ness gives them, and no schooling Of the
visage either, but only habitual noble
ness and graciousness within, and this
will give them all. Nor does wise man
think he has watched the quick expres-
sions which fit across the face uncon-l
sciously. The truth will out, and In
these flashing motions sometimes we
catch the rascals under . handsome
mask, and sometimes catch the angel
where we had not looked for one. Rev..

mOunted ON stolen horses and make
raids, seizing cattle, poultry and horses,
anything that win serve their purpose.
Last Sunday they rode into the little
