SUpERsT1TIous WHITE HOUSE NE.
GRoEs.-Now that Theodore Roosevelt,
Jr., is really convalescing 1t will do to
tell a story that has troubled the su-
perstitious and amused the materialists
about the White House no little of late.
Some time ago the fastenings hold
ing in place the portrait Of General
Grant, which hangs on the wall Of one
of the first floor rooms, gave way and
the huge canvas with its frame fell to
the floor. The crash brought several
attendants to the scene, among them
more than one of the Negro servants
about the house.
With an awe-struck tone one of the
old retainers declared that some one In
the family would die. He recalled that
the falling of the portrait Of President
Garfield was followed by the death of
President Mckinley, all of them pre-
dieting it at the time.
When the presidents young son be-
came Ill at Groton, II told you so,
was the constant refrain Of the SUPER
stitious old Negroes about the place.
When the servants saw him brought
home and on the way to convalescence,
they began to doubt the truth Of the
solemn warning, but there are still
those that firmly believe something has
to develop after the falling Of pres
ident's portrait, and as the young boy
slowly wins his way back to strength
the superstitious Negroes look about
for some other victim Of General
Grants portrait.-Chicago Tribune.

and thereafter at the rate Of l cent per
ton. The voyage, however, must be not
less than $50 miles from port, the crew
must at least be one-fourth Americans
and the vessel must carry at least half
a full cargo and one apprentice boy for
each thousand tons Of register.
No steamship can receive both mail
subsidy and general subsidy, and those
receiving the latter are to carry United
States mail free Of charge. Vessels re-
ceiving subsidy are to be taken for the
public defence upon fair valuation, and
are not to be sold except by consent of
the secretary of the treasury. Foreign
built ships are barred from participa-
ton in the bounty unless expressly
stipulated in the contract.
To vessels engaged in deep sea fishing
for not less than three months Of the
year, there Is to be paid 81 per gross
ton per annum, and to each American
citizen serving as a member Of the
crew, 81 per month while so employed.
At least one-third Of each crew Is to
be composed Of American citizens.

THE NEW SHIP SUBSIDY BILL.
Outline Of the Measure as 1t Passed
the Senate Monday.

The ship subsidy bill as passed by the
senate is divided into two parts. The
first refers to ocean mail subsidies, and
authorizes, until July 1, 1910, contracts
for carrying the mails for terms OF
from to fifteen years between the
United States and such ports as Will
best serve the postal and commercial
interests of the United States the con-
tracts to 20 to the lowest responsible
bidder and to expire in 1920. The
steamships carrying mails are to be
classified according to tonnage and
speed and paid from ST. cents to 27-lO
cents per registered ton for each 100
miles on the outward trip and are to be
acceptable and suitable for auxiliary
cruisers in case Of war. A certain pro-
portion of their crews are to be Amer
leans and they are to carry one appren-
tice boy for each thousand tons Of reg
lister. The yearly expenditure is to be
not more than $5,O00.OOO until July l.
1907, and afterward not to exceed $S,-
100000. The right Of congress to amend
or repeal the bill is not to be consider
ed an impairment of contracts made
under it.
The second part deals with general
subsidies and deep sea fisheries. The
general subsidy is limited to sail or
steam vessels clased not less that A l.,
IF o,.ar 000 TONS reriSter and having
a speed of not less than eight knots,
engaged in the foreign trade or with the
Philippine Islands.
For the first five years after accept
ing bounty they are to be paid II cents
per gross ton for each 100 miles sailed,

Bryan has not sympathy with or
friendship towards the south and they
strongly criticise him. There is SINH
lar diversity Of opinion among the
members Of the house: some arguing
that there should be every possible fili-
buster against the adoption Of the reso-
luton, while others think the fight
should be reserved until some legisla-
tion is attempted. They count on the
assistance Of the southern republicans
in opposing all attempts to cut the rep
resentation of the southern states.
Scarcely anything has been more dis
cussed among the Democrats today

DEMOCRATS MUST FIGHT.
Advice OF Party Leaders With Ref
erence to Crumpacker Resolution.

Advice of Party Leaders With Ref
erence to Crumpacker Resolution.
The fact that the rules committee of
the house has decided to report the
Crumpacker resolution, as 1t was in
structed to do by the Republican eau
Gus some time since, led to a consid-
erable agitation Of the force bill ques-
ton, particularly among the Demo-
cratic members of the house, today. 1t
Is not the intention Of the committee to
press the resolution for couple or
weeks, because other matters Of more
importance are pending, but when 1t
does get before the house the indica-
tions point to lively contest. Tomor-
row night the Democrats are to caucus
on the question Of Pro-Boer resolutions
and there Is likelihood that the Crum-
packer movement will also be discus
sed. No plan of campaign Will, how
ever, be determined upon. Democrats
differ widely as to what course should
be pursued. kilograms printed in local
papers from Senator German, Ex-Sen-
ator David B. Hill and William ]. Bry-
an, whose views were sought, have at
tracted considerable attention. Mr..
Hill says, of course, the proposed in
vestigations should be opposed, because
it Is partisan and unnecessary. He
says If the investigation should be fol-
lowed by an attempt to enact Federal
election law it will work the beginning
of the end of the Republican national
rule. Mr.. German says the Democrats
must fight this proposition from now
until the end Of this congress. His ad-
vice Is in effect for the Democrats to
use obstructive tactics against every
piece of legislation to prevent action on
this resolution. Mr.. Bryan's response
has not pleased a good many southern
men, while it is true that it has pleased
others. He says that If the investiga-
ton is not partisan or sectarian; If the
methods employed by the Republicans
in the Hanna election and Pennsylva-
mia are Investigated as we'll as those IN
the southern states, there is no objec-
tion to investigation. Some southern
members point to this as indicating that

The Senior Senator on His Flight
With McLaurin and the Dinner In
| cfdent.
Senator Tillman has written a letter
to Mr.. D. H. Magill, Of Greenwood, IN
answer to one Of sympathy Of the latter
for his recent trouble with McLaurin,
and in his reply Senator Tillman makes
a justification of his course as follows:
II wish to say that my action here
was a necessity, and while regret as
much as any one that circumstances
were Of nature, so I had no alterna-
tive but to strike my colleague, be-
lieve my action meets with the appro-
val of a large majority Of the Demo-
Gratis in the house and senate. Not that
they approve the giving Of a blow In tie
senate; but they think there was moth
ing else to do, and had taken the lie
my own self-respect would have been
gone, and my service in the future of
no effect.
$50 then, I have but one comment to
make in my answer to newspaper criti-
cisms published in South Carolina. 1t
does look hard that when am making
the best fight can against Republicans
here and acting in the capacity Of one
Of the fighters in the senate, delegated
by the Democratic side to answer the
strongest Republican, Senator Spooner,
on party question, that some OF my
own people, Democrats in reality or ap-
parently should stab me in the back,
while I am engaged all along the line
in front by Republicans. It however,
demonstrates the fact that there are
some in South Carolina, who are anti
Tillmanites, first and Democrats after
wards and will seize on any and every
thing to give me stab. We will let
that pass though, and will 60 back to
my people feeling, as have felt Tor a
long while, that I have the respect and
support of large majority Of them and
for those who are so narrow and pref
udiced as to be unable to see any good
in anything that do, feel only con-
tempt and pity.
1.-The dinner incident was not Of my
making and in that have no doubt as
to the sentiment Of the folks at home.
The statement has been made that 1t
was an official dinner. This is untrue
because Pierpont Morgan, Robert Lin
coin and ten or fifteen other private
citizens were invited. The invitation
to me came unsought. I had no special
desire to attend the function but be-
fore had any notice whatever that 1t
was desired that my acceptance be
Withdrawn the whole thing was venti-
lated in the morning papers, and I was
thus notified publicly that the president
was trying to punish senator, before
the senate had taken action. Had the
president sent a mutual friend, In a
quiet way suggesting that it would be
an awkward situation, any man who
knows me at all, knows how quickly I
would have relieved him Of his embar-
rassment."

Patchwork of Pictures.

OF all the quaint and varied sights
shown to the passing stranger, says
Navy and Army, perhaps there is none
more attractive than the officers quar-
tiers in the main guard Of the citadel Of
valetta. Long ago some officer, find
ing the time hang heavy on his hands
and having in him besides a turn for
sketching, bethought him to draw upon
the bare yellow washed wall Of his I'M
garnished room a picture in colors.
The next officer probably thought he
could do as we'll or better, and he, too,
left his handiwork upon the walls, and
as years rolled by there grew up a
custom, now firmly established, for ev-
cry regiment serving in Malta and do
ing main guard duty to leave behind a
remembrance of itself in the shape of a
sketch on the walls in pencil, chalk or
paint. Thus now, instead Of plain, un'
lovely walls, exists this quaint irregu'
lar patchwork Of pictures, well known
throughout the services and to those
who use this highway to the east.

Forming Big Independent Company
to Fight Beef Trust.
Chicago, May 5.-Hundreds of retail
meat dealers throughout the country
have begun the organization Of an In
dependent packing company, with a
capital stock Of $5,OO0,000. 1t is pro-
posed by the organizers to erect mod
ern packing plant in Chicago large
enough to supply all the beef products
handled in their trade and thus Offset
the designs Of the beef trust.
A considerable amount Of the capital
necessary to carry through the project
already has been subscribed. The lar
gest subscription which will be accept
ed from any one firm or individual Is
$1,000. This is to prevent the ABSORB
ton of the company by the packers
who now control the beef business.
Men skilled in the beef trade already
have been engaged to manage the new
concern.
The work for the promotion Of the
new company began two weeks ago.
The promoters expect to interest be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 retailers in the
project.

with which we shall follow 1t.

and you are going to a country where
energy is religion and where youth Is
loved"
In letter to President Roosevelt
President Loubet said in part:
II gladly accept your invitation IN
the name Of the government Of the re-
public and in that of the entire French
people. In fraternally taking part In

once more gives evidence of its remem-
brance Of those French citizens who
shared its dangers and glory in its
struggle for independence 1t has fur
thermore desired to confirm the friend
ship and draw still closer the bonds
which since that most memorable Pc
riod have united our two countries.
France will hail this manifestation
with deep emotion. In rendering you

you to accept, dear and great friend,

Game duck of all sorts should be

blood should always follow the knife
when carving the breast Of duck. 1t
is not possible to limit the roasting of

EAe Pictures Of Flying Birds In .
Mohammedan Mosque.

A8V8o4nAu006 01VoQ00s
According to one of the tenets of the
Mohammedan religion, 1t is a sin to
make picture Of any living thing. The
elaborate decorations Of the palaces
and mosques Of the east are almost ex-
clusively made up Of ingeniously inter-
laced geometric designs, arabesques or
flowers, intermixed with sentences Of
the Koran.
There Ia a belief among Mussulmans
that at the lay of judgment Allah will
demand that the artist who has made
the image of living thing shall endow
that image with life and that, failing to
do this, the artist will be sent to perdi-
ton for his sin.
A gentleman who visited a mosque in
Algiers found that the tiles with which
the building is decorated, which are
very old and beautiful, are adorned
with flights Of birds. He expressed sur
prise at this and asked II the command
against such representation were a
modern edict.
"Oh, no." answered the pious Alge-
rian to whom he addressed the ques-
ton. "These are not pictures Of living
birds"
"But they are painted as If flying
across the tiles" the other said in some
establishment.
EYES," the Mussulman replied, "but
do you not see that about the neck Of
each there Is a fine black line? That Is
to show that the artist painted only
dead birds, and the command of the
Koran is not violated"
