Eenats VIII Devote Attention. to Phil.
lppine Tariff Bill.
Washington, Jan. 27.-The senate
will devote it's principal attention
this week to the Philippine tariff bill.
It is the purpose OF Senator Lodge.
who is in charge of the BILL to keep
it before the senate persistently until
it is disposed of. He does not count
on final action for some time. 1t is
not the present purpose of the f.ienSs
of the bill to debate it, but the at
tacks which will be made on it and
upon the entire administration of
Philippine affairs inevitably will bring
replies from many of the Republican
senators. It is understood that a ma
jority of the senators on the Demo
cratic side of the chamber will be
heard before the bill is passed. Among
those who will speak early are Sena.
tors Carmac, Money, Teller, Culber-
son, Turner, Patterson, Jones, Of
Arkansas, and Bacon. Senator Lodge
will seek the earliest opportunity to
have the amendments recommended
by his committee formally adopted
Senator Nelson will take advantage
of every chance to have the bill Great
ing a department of commerce consid.
cred, with the view to having favora-
BILE action upon it.
In the House.
The house leaders have made no
program for the work of the present
week, as there are no measures of i'm
portance pressing for attention. al
though the anti-oleomargarine bill and
the Hill bill for the exchangeability
of gold and silver are both on the cal
endar and may be taken up before
long. Thus far no exact time has been
fixed for either of these measures, and
the lesser bills will take their chances
as opportunity presents itself. There
promises to be considerable spare
time this week as there are no ap.
preparation bills ready to fill the gap
when bills OF general nature are
lacking. The chief interest of the
week centres in the opening of hear
ings by the ways and means commit
tee on the reduction of war revenue
taxes. The committee today gave a
hearing to the beer and tea interests.
Tomorrow the committee will re-
turn to the subject of Cuban reciproci-
ty, hearing more of the representa-
tives of beet sugar, and also several
Cuban planters who have come to the
United States to present their view
of the case.

The Best Telephoned city.

What is thu best telephoned city in
the world? San Francisco seems to be
the answer. In that city, with popu-
lation Of 342s782. there are 21,324 tele-
phones. or si1tytwo per thousand. In
Europe. Copenhagen is probably the
best telephoned city, with 1871 tele-
phones to it's 312,S59 of population,
equal to forty mine per thousand. In
Copenhagen, too, the best conditions
for the public exist. although the rates
are relatively as high as those in Amer
lean cities. London compares very un-
favorably with these figures. At the
beginning of this year there were A.
III telephones to population of more
than 5,5OO.OOO, or proportion of sew
en- to every thousand people. New
York, with a population Of 2,35O.0OO,
had 54,647 instruments, or twenty six

RYE BREAD AND COFFEE.

The workingman in Germany must
have coffee, and plenty of it, and lit

stead. He rarely uses milk, eggs or
white -four, and he never thinks of
buying any of the better cuts of meat.
Canned goods, familiar to every Amer
lean worker are absolutely unknown
to him.
His staple food is rye bread, which
he buys in enormous loaves. His wife

bread and brings it home clasped In

And this bread is good, thoroughly
good. The government, which super
vises everything and everybody, guards
the rye bread of the people with jeal-
GUS care. The bakers are watched,
compelled to give full weight and make
good bread. I have eaten it in num-
