Amendments to the Tariff Bill Make
Ample Provision Therefor.
washington, July 3.-Reciprocity and
retaliation were the two phases of the
tariff bill to occupy the attention of
the senate yesterday to the exclusion.
of all other subjects. Both provisions
were agreed to, although the debate on
the reciprocity clause was protracted to
p. m. Shortly before adjournment Mr.,
Allison endeavOred to secure an agree
ment on the time for a final vote, but
Mr.. Teller would not consent to fixing
che time until all proposed amendments
had been submitted to the senate. AS
Mr.. Allison was not prepared to submit
these amendments he withdrew his re-
quest, and the time for the final vote
was left open,
The retaliatory clause provides that
whenever any country bestows an ex-
port bounty on any article, then upon
the importation of such article into the
United States there shall be levied, in
addition to the duties provided by the
act, an additional duty equal to the
amount of the bounty. The two Dem
ocratic senators from Louisiana, Caf-
fiery and McEnery, voted with the Re-
politicians in the affirmative,
The reciprocity clause empowers the
president, with the advice and consent
of the senate, to make reClef ocity trea-
ties, giving 20 per cent Teductlon in
duties on designated articles or placing
articles on the free list.

A PATS Nest Worth $1,000

While workmen were engaged last
week In demohshing barn on the
Thompson property. in Dobbs Ferry, N:
Y, they found under the floor rats
nest which was made of greenbacks.
The money had been badly torn and
chewed, but most of it, If not all, Is re-
deemable.
Prof. Thomas F. Thompson, who now
owns the property, says the money was
probably hidden under the barn floor
some years ago by his father. Robert
Thompson, who began to act queerly
in 1882 and became possessed OF a fear
of banks, lawyers and corporations.
After that time he carried his money
about him. He seldom, IL ever, allowed
anyone but himself to visit the barn.
Mr.. Thompson, sr., died September Is.
1898, and Prof. Thompson's mother lived
until December last.
BY her will the estate. which consist
ed Of $4,000 and the house and land, was
to be divided equally between Prof.
Thompson and his brother. The pro-
fessor took the house and his brother
took the money. In equity the money
found in the rats nest belongs to Prof.
Thompson. The professor is a blind
musician and has composed a number
Of pieces
The total amount Of money in the
rats nest Is thought to be about $1,000
1t is in IS, SO and $40 bills.-New York

Tho Most Attractive Trait

'If were asked to name what to my
mind is the most telling attribute of
character" said the sagacious woman,
1T should say--poise. Really. I know
of nothing more effective, either as re-
CARDS the Individual or those with whom
she comes in contact. 1t appeals TO
people, somehow, far more than almost
any other trait. Beauty. cleverness.
amiability, sympathy-all these are very
well in their way; but doubt II any
of them ever proves half as potent as
poise,' the manifestation of q perfect
equilibrium Of mind and soul. I sup
pose it is largely because 30 few Of us
possess 1t. We always admire and en-
Wy what doesn't belong to us, you know:
Placidity Of temperament Is. indeed. all
that is rare, particularly when It's z
schooled and disciplined placidity, not
merely cowlike calm, but cool re-
pose significant Of great reserve
strength and force. So much to be de-
sired Is the quality, however. that many
undiscerning persons are willing to ac-
cept the imitation for the real; IN othee
words, the 'cowlike calm often passes
for the repose. That's why stupidity %
SO often put up with, even looked up to.
People still cling ito the erroneous Il
long established notion that stu waters
invariably run deep, and think that Pc
cause one says nothing 1t is because she
has a great deal to keep silent about.
About the only leg that conceit has to
stand upon is that 1t is often mistaken
for poise The unclever observer sees
the supreme self satisfaction and takes
It for granted that there must be some-
thing to be satisfied about. SO she ac-
cordingly respects and envies the pos
SCISSOR. Yes, poise is a quality that IN
its real form or its counterfeit presents
ment is all that Is appealing to the
many of US who are continually losing
our balance of individuality. We long
to acquire 1t and we are naturally
drawn to anyone who merely appears

tractive traits on record."-Ncw York
