Roosevelt in his message to con-
gress declares that lin the case Of
Cuba there are weighty reasons of
morality and of national interest why
the policy of reciprocity should be
held to have a peculiar application and
| most earnestly ask your attention to
the vital need of providing for a sub
stantial reduction in the tariff duties
on Cuban imports into the United
States" So there is after all moral
question involved in the tariff is there?
One would almost conclude from the
blind alteration shown the tariff
fetch by the Republican leaders that
esteem, selfishness and inordinate
greed on the part of the few coupled
with a determination to bleed the
many for their enrichment are highly
moral attributes. The tariff is at the
very best an evidence of the narrowest
kind of selfishness. and total disre-
gard for the rights of others. 1t is an
absolute command to do unto others
us. Whenever Russia, Germany,
France or any other country imposes
a trade restriction against any of our
products, our protected vampires set up
a howl and clamor for open free trade
doors on the part of others, while we
exact tribute, like the pirates of the
Mediterranean, on every dollar that we
get our hands on. The tariff is said
to have derived its name from the
pirates of Tarifa, who exacted trib-
ute from every vessel entering or leav-
ing the Mediterranean. The Moorish
pirates long ago met their just des'
erts, but their wicked robberies are
still practiced under the sanction OF
law and in the name of protection.

CORONATION BEAUTIES.

The Honorable Violet and the Hon
OrabIe Doris Vivian Are RadiantIy
Handsome and Serve Her Majesty
ms Maids of HOnOr-Lady Constance
Butler. the COum' -ss of Cromartie
and the Honorable Ethel Gerard
Are Also Wonderfully Fair to See.
Queen Alexandra is very like Queen
Anne, in that she takes the sincerest
pleasure in flowers and pretty women,
since her husband has assumed su-
premely royal state and influence she
has slowly, gently, but firmly, been re-
firing from all the posts of honor about
her person and household. the good
but frumpy elderly ladies who minis
tered to the pleasure of the late gra-
cious Queen.
By the time the coranation takes
place the English court will be justly
famous for a galaxy of lovely girls and
youthful matrons, all worthy the brush
of Sir Peter Lely and the admiration
of that notable judge of feminine
beauty, gay King Charles II. About
the court this preference of the queens
for good looks, and good Jempers and
good hearts is well known, and nobody
was in the least surprised when two
of the most picturesque twin beauties
in Great Britain were chosen as her
first maids of honor. These sweet girls
are the Honorable Doris and the Hon
Orable Violet Vivian. Though they are
twin sisters, they are not counterparts
one of the other, and the Honorable
Violet is esteemed rather the fairest
of the two. If the Honorable Doris
is just a trifie less perfect than her
TALL slender, chestnut-haired, violet
eyed, Rosetti mouthed sister, she is
keenly witty and quite as popular
with the Queen, who is not SO severe
stickler for royal etiquette as was
her predecessor, and likes to hear OF
the jokes and pranks of her shrewd
maid of honor. The Honorable Doris
is one of the few persons who can read
aloud to the satisfaction of her mis-
tress, who is hard o. hearin', but does
not wish to be reminded of her weak
ness.
Next after the Vivian girls, as these
sweet maids are Familiarity spoken Of
in London drawing rooms, the Queen
is fondest of the Ladies Butler, the
daughters of the Marquis of Ormonde,
and are counted the two handsomest
women in Irish society. Last year Lody
Beatrice Butler, the oldest sister, mar
ried for love the gallant Gen. Pole
Carew, and her sister, Lady Constance,
is invited to serve at court. Lady
Constance is an all around modern
girl; almost faultiess in feature and
cloring; finished horsewoman; an
expert in and on the water; a clever
water colorist; a maker of the most
delicate varieties of fine Irish lace;
linguist and a charming companion.
She yachts with her father, physics
and advises and jests with the irish
peasantry on her fathers estate, ana

and wealth. She is to take her turn
as court lady during the coronation
in association with one of the prettiest
women and boldest fox hunters in the
United Kingdom: The Honorable Ethel
Gerard.

this courageous young lady would fear
to ride and yet, despite that fact that

horrorLstricken eyes the Pullman she

distance.
Sarah Ellen was not a hysterical

this final catastrophe overwhelmed her

sandy embankment by the track, and

horse standing close behind her. The
horse was a big. handsome bay, ard as
she looked at the man, who wore a
blue shirt, a floating red tie, buck

and a big sombrero, she felt that she

But as her glance swept over the

far away from Bromfield street she was

Sarah Ellen was possessed of a good

her knees shook under her, she smiled
and said politely:
