WASHINGTON, June 12.-Tbe long
deferred debate on the sugar schedule
of the tariff bill came on abruptly at /
o'clock yesterday, after the Senate
had disposed of the cereals in the agri-
cultural schedule. Senators and spec
tators soon lapsed into state of
Indifference as the speeches dealt with
labyrinth of technical details, of
vital interest, though, to tie sugar re-
finer and expert.
Mr.. Jones of Arkansas opened the
debate, to some extent answering Mr..
Aldrich's statement on the sugar
lacking in any severe denunciatory
features. The Senator held that the
rates proposed gave the refners an
excessive differential and pointed out
how they had thrived on the one
eighth differential OF the present law.

Early in the day Mr.. Tillman of
South Carolina made lively speech in
favor of the amendment giving an ex-

Dick Knowles Little Joke.

Dick Knowles, who is in New York
from Australia, returning 20 England,
promised "A London friend 10 send him
some bit Of characteristic Australian yeRe-
tation. The promise escaped Knowles
memory until he reached Melbourne,
where he was introduced TO typical Aus
tralian sheep herder who had been I'm the
"bush'' for nearly "a year and had grown
a luxurious crop Of wind blown whiskers
about the color Of sagebrush. Knowles
quietly reached for his pocket scissors,
and, unnoticed, clipped Oft good sized
wisp Of the whisker. This he mailed TO
his London friend, with n complete bo-
tanical description Of "A very rare species
Of wire grass that grows in the most inao-
cessible parts Of Tasmania.
The wisp Is treasured in his friends
cabinet of souvenirs, but the joke will he
left loose when Dick gets back TO London.

Bowling Congress.

New York, June 23-The annual spring
meeting OF the American bowling con-
gress which Is composed Of about so OF
the leading clubs In various parts OF the
country. was held in Beethoven hall last
night, with the president, DIR. II. Timm.
In the chair. Among the changes I'm the
rules was one regarding the use of pri-
vate bowling balls. The rule was so
amended as TO prohibit the use OF a pri-
vate ball by another without the con-
sent OF the owner Of the ball Another
important rule was that regulating the
distance from the extreme end OF the
alley TO the cushion TO not less than
three feet. and requiring that the pit
shall be not less than 10 inches deep.
These two changes will have the effect
OF making all alleys uniform i'm conctruc-
tion. N was further decided to have the
headquarters OF the congress in Greater
New York, with local consuls in every

dear TO the hearts of all people OF the stage
temperament, and that Is in all serious
ness half the battle at least.
In addition 10 that, however. Miss Rock
well Is handsome, without being weakly
pretty, and Is also somewhat famous as
being the woman whose measurements
correspond with the old Grecian scale for
female physical perfection. She is a good
deal Of an athlete, rides bicycle, jumps,
runs, rows, swims and walks great dis
tance each day Naturally she enjoys the
best health, and If she should ever reach
the top round Of the ladder Of dramatic
fame. she will not be likely 20 be required
to vacate IL because Of physical inflrmities.
Her bodily training has been under the
supervision of her mother, who Is a physi-
clan, and II Is therefore not surprising
that such good results have been achieved.
Miss Rockwell's stage experience has
really been brief one despite the fact that
she has appeared in long list of charac-
ters. She was born in 81. Louis, where
John w. Norton early predicted for her
phenomenally successful career. BY his
advice the child was taken TO New York
city when she was IA years old md placed
under the tutelage of Rose Eytinge. After
hard study of few months, hearing that
ID0mus w. h(eNc was IN necu OF n ledu-
ing woman, Florence, who was then jnst
Is, applied. Keene smiled, but decided
to give her hearing, along with moro
than 40 other aspirants, most Of them nc
tresses Of long experience. After they had
been heard the tragcdian announced that
the st. Louis girl was his choice He said
that she had fairly startled him by her in
tensity- and -lno -rcnding- She as-en-
gagged, and Il was no easy thing for her TO
make up to look old enough for the roles
assigned her, which included Juliet, Lady
Anne. Julia in "The Hunchhack," Julie
de Mortimer in "Richelieu," Portia and
Desdemona. The praise accorded her by
the critics of the large cities visited was
enthusiastic in the extreme, and after that
season she became the leading Indy with
James O'Neill, in whose company she re-
mained two years She then concluded TO
rest n few months. She was recently en-
gagged to play the principal female role in
"Cumberland 81" the new drama by
Franklin Fyles, which will be produced in
August i'm New York. Upon the result Of
her work in this piece will largely depend
Miss Rockwell's future, as it will enable
her TO demonstrate whether or not she Is
more than simply Every good leading
woman"

that romantic part Miss Conquest has met
by an Interpretation that in many grace

gossips are nodding their heads and sny-
ing that If Miss Allen had known that

two additional weeks, but n month and
more after May 15, the original closing
date, she would never hayo sailed for Eng

has not neglected 1t. Already noticed this

His Wife" at the Empire--Miss Conquest
has now gained attention as leading play
or in the one serious dramatic survival
