made greater progress yesterday on the
tariff bill than any day since the de-
bate opened. Two entire schedules,

standing next. The portion of the bill

tematically rejected by majorltiea
varying from five to ten. The house

Three weeks ago Col. Buff Williams
called our horse editor q liar and got
away without a scratch. We at once
discharged the man, and a week later
took on new one, who said he hailed
from Indiana and had Q bushel or two
of sand. He looked to have, but we
secretly arranged with the Colonel to
try him on. The test took place Thurs
day afternoon. when the Colonel
brought a horse around to the Kicker
Office to be inspected. At q proper
time he took occasion to call our new
editor liar, and with beating heart
We awaited results. Our new man was
on to the Colonel as soon as the word
was spoken, and he simply licked him
out Of his boots in three minutes. We
had agreed to interfere at the right
moment. but the Colonel was licked
man before We could remember just
what part we we're to play in the game.
We are perfectly satisfied that We have
got the man we have been looking for.
During our temporary absence from
the Kicker Office he will occupy our
sanctum, and the man who calls to
lick the editor will go out on stretcher
We understand that Col. Williams
feels hard toward us as he caresses his
black eyes and broken nose, but il We
lose his friendship our joy at having
secured q cyclone on wheels will be an
ample offset.-Arizona Kicker.

The only countries in Europe where
women vote to any extent are in those
places that we would least expect it |;
for example, in Finland and Iceland.
On the Continent the woman suffrage
movement has made no great head
way OF late years, says the Chautau-
quan. The women have no voting
privileges to speak Of in either France
or Germany.
In several European countries they
are allowed to vote by proxy. Thus,
in the Austrian provinces women can
vote for members OF the provincial
and imperial Parliaments, but by
proxy. They can vote in person at
local elections. The same is true oi
Russia, where women who are heads
Of households vote at local elections.
As to the widows. they have the right
to vote at municipal elections in
Belgium, while in Italy they can vote
for members of Parliament.

Over the Hills on . Wintry Might

While they were discussing the
melee in the School Board. the head
Of big manufacturing establishment
was moved to relate this experience,
says the Detroit Free Press:
81 was once pedagogue myself. l
had resolved to do something worth
while in the business world, and hav-
ing no capital except what was wrapped
up in my person, l taught school to
get starter. / had some advanced
students and had to skirmish in order
to keep up with the procession.
One day the whole class was stumped
by an arithmetical problem. and SO
was L. In order to gain time for my
self 1 came the old dodge of telling
them how much better 1t would be il
they would work out the solution for
themselves, and gave them another
day.
THAT night, behind locked doors
and closed blinds, L worked in fear
and perspiration. From the bottom
OF my trunk took key to the arith-
metic, but even with that aid / failed
to master the problem. By midnight
l was desperate. 1t would never do to
let the scholars, the parents and the
whole cruel world know that | was not
equal to my position. But it's not in
my makeup to surrender while there's
fighting chance.
AT the town ten miles away there
was loyal and highly educated friend
OF mine. He would help me and say
nothing. 1t was one of the bitterest
January nights | ever knew. But |
slipped to the barn, appropriated a
horse, made ride more notable than
many OF those immortalized in song or
history, froze my ears and toes, and
had my vocal powers reduced to
whisper.
"But you should have heard my
whispered explanation of that problem
and my regrets that none OF the pupils
had mastered it,"
