Has Already Saved Two Per-
sons From watery Graves.

Cleveland. o., Feb. 19.-Little Chas-
Walsh, of this city, is a hero. Though
only IL years old he has saved the
lives of two companions who were in
danger of drowning. Before a group
of school boys too frightened to rem
der the least assistance, Charley
plunged into the icy water of pond
about seven feet deep and rescued
Howard Reif, playmate, from drown-
ing. The boy had walked across some
thin ice and had gone under, when
the Walsh lad. hastily shedding his
REFER. plunged in after him. When
young Reif came to the surface his
rescuer seized him under the arm and
swan to shore through the floating
ice.
Last summer young Walsh saved
the life of Eddie Patton, a companion,
who got beyond r's depth while
swimming in pond. For one of his
age. the hero is an expert swimmer.

PORTO R1cAN TARIFF.
The Bi1l Now Before the House Will
he Debated All Week. and PrOm-
iscs to BE Memorable.

Washington, Feb. 19.-The house
will enter upon the consideration of
the Porto Rican tariff bill and the de-
bate upon it promises to be memora-
BILE in the history of this congress.
The vital question at issue in the bill
is whether that clause of the consti-
tuition providing for equality of inn
post and excise taxes throughout
United States territory extends over
the island of Porto Rico and in this
is involved perhaps the determination
of the future status and government
of our new accession.
The republicans in framing the bill
have proceeded upon the theory that
the constitution and its immunities
do not extend over Porto Rico. The
democrats are solidly arrayed upon
the other side. and in committee they
were joined by one republican,: Mr.
Mccall. of Massachusetts,. Among
the other republicans who take the
same view is Mr.. Littlefield. of Maine,
who succeeded the late Mr.. Dingley
He won his spurs in the debate upon
the Roberts case. and is already con.
sidered one of the most powerful de-
baters in the house. The support OF
these two prominent republicans has
raised some hopes in the opposition
that they may be able to defeat the
bill, although this hardly seems prob
able at this writing.
Both sides are preparing for roya
struggle. Mr.. Payne, the floor leader
of the majority. will open in support
of the bill. He will be followed by
Mr.. Richardson. the minority leader
Mr.. Bailey. of 1exas. will also close
for the minority. The debate viii
! continue throughout the week.
