Exact Provisions of Tariff Bills.

Congress and President Mckinley have their tariff bill that it becomes necessary to recall it's exact provisions in order to understand 1t. It is now before the ways and means committee of the house, and will stay there until the republicans as- certain they can pass it either as it stands or with some further changes.
 As it now stands it is measure intend ed to satisfy the tariff benefciaries in under it on American goods shipped into Porto Rico but goods from all other coun- tries are to pay full Dingley rates in Porto Rican ports.
 Goods from Porto Rico are to pay in United States ports b per cent. of Dngley rates, the money which such goods yield to be expended for Porto Rican purposes only, and provisions are made for the sub- stitution of other taxes in the course of two years.
 Elaborate territorial government provis- ions constitute. t'sA greater part of the sen- ate bill The governor of the island is to be appointed by the president, and in the territorial legislature the members of the lower house are to be elected by popu- lar vote, while the nine members of the upper house, to be known as the executive council are to be appointed by the presi- dent. This is a distinctly imperial provis- ion, because 1t takes from the Porto Ricans theflegislative as we'll as the execu- tive departments of the government.
 As ex-Speaker Reed has said, the tariff provision makes the Porto Ricans three quarters citizens of the United States. The reservation of one-quarter has been made in order to preserve the monopoly interests of the tobacco and sugar trusts.

EDNA'S PAPA WAS THERE

New York Letter in the Pittsburg Dis
 patch.
 Edna May was among the batch of Ca sino beauties who sailed away from Eng land today on the St. Paul. Miss May was taken to the steamship by her father, and the "Johnnies' who had come down to see the last of her were compelled to keep at a respectful distance. There were great many admirers of Miss May on the pier, and her stateroom was full of flowers, but she was exceedingly stately with everyone but her father as becomes prima donna who has social acquaintance with half the English peerage. She wore an automobile coat and an alpine hat with black baafd- presumably the correct nautical costume of the day.

DEWEY LEASES AN HISTORIC HOUSE

From a Washington Letter.
 The Admiral of the Navy and Mrs. Dew ey have leased Beauvoir, in the outskirts of Washington, to which they will remove from their town house upon their return from their western trip. Some years ago MT Mclean leased the place for term of years from Mrs. Richard Townsend. Last year MT. Mclean took fancy to an old place further up the Tenallytown road, but instead of giving up Beauvoir, MT. Me Lean released the property for the pur- pose of sub-letting it to the admiral of the navy and Mrs. Dewey. The house is an old-fashioned, square structure, with two rooms on either side of the broad, main hallway, and a wide veranda running across the entire length in front It was originally built by Dr. Busey of this city, and is surrounded with ten to twelve acres of land, which is not cultivated to any great extent, the owners preferring to have it left in rural condition of heavy shrub bery and undergrowth here and there. The grounds of Beauvoir adjoin those of the Episcopal cathedral. The house, con taining twelve rooms, has been modernized, and is fitted with everything that could conduce to the comfort and convenience of the oceupants

Statistics of Suicide.

The number of suicides in this country is steadily increasing, standing at present at about 6,5OO year It is not plain that the increase is much greater in percentage than the gain in population, but the belief is that the habit is gaining rather than losing ground The sum total in this country seems large when presented by years, but the proportion to population IS lower in this country than in any Euro- pean nation. China is, however, the land of self-destructlon, the estimated annual number there being SOO,OOO In the pro- vince of Yun-Nan alone it is known that the suicides are double each month those means usually adopted to that end in China.
 pr. Justin Herold of New York has in a recent book explained at length the sui cides of his own city, numbering in given period 3,4S1. He finds that one-third were life failures, and the other two-thirds were in order due to domestic troubles, bad health, drink, insanity, tired of life, remorse and fear of punishment, miscel- laneous. In the last named category were only IT. Over one-third of the cases occurred between the ages of 20 and 40; over two-thirds between 20 and 60. The young and the old are not inclined to self murder.
 Dr. Herold finds that poison Is the most common agency and carbolic acid is the favorite poison. This choice is not due to its particular value, but solely to the ease with which the sanitation house. hold fluid can be procured at drug stores. Two-thirds of the New York suicides were either married or widowed. More Ger mans than natives commit suicide in New York; and the Russians are third in the LSt, 1oiloWed III oruer by Frencn, Aus trians, Italians, Swedes, Norwegians, English, Scotch and Irish. More physicians destroy themselves than all other profess sional persons combined.
 All in all Americans cling to life more tenaciously than in other countries, but still the loss of 6,5OO persons a year con- stitutes problem that deserves more study than it has thus far received.

From the Forum. 'TWrrT.
 Of the total population of Porto Rico not write the Spanish language, and less than one-tenth of per cent. can read and write the English language. Prior to the cession of Porto Rico to the United States not a single building was ever constructed as a school house.

Blind Tigers in Hale a thn Grnnrs-Iarn Dna

From the Greensboro Beacon.
 There is law prohibiting the sale of liquor within the county of Hale. It is comprehensive in its scope and includes not only those who sell or give away, but those who aid another in procuring liquor. The best sentiment of the county is in fa- vor of retaining this law and enforcing it. It is said that the evidence will be present. ed before the grand jury that will call for action, and if the people are ever rid of the curse of blind tigers it will be when it is known that indictment, conviction and imprisonment is sure to- follow when it can be shown that any person is guilty of habitual violation of the law

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

From the New York Press.
 The less girl thinks she needs c hus- band the more she needs a chapersz.
 The word "soul'' is an attractive to a woman as a piece of liver to 8 cat.
 A red-headed girl may make you mad, but you will generally find that she isn't c fool.
 If Eve had gone at Adam with a new kind of cake instead of an apple he would never have bit into it.
 A woman's idea of tact is to kick her husbands feet under the table when they have company and she is afraid he is going to say something.
