The petition alleges that the passes

violation OF the interstate commerce
act, which provides a fine Of 800 to
$1,000 and a penalty on persons for ac-

There is more than meets the eye in
that suit; good many people have had
contracts with the railroads for COM

law annulIed those contracts and placed
in jeopardy of fine and Imprisonment
any person who dared to even ask that
the contracts be fulfilled. One clause
of the constitution expressly forbids
any law abrogating such arrangements.

whether congress can, with the aid of

POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS.

\ few days ago the national house
Of representatives. passed, with few
amendments calculated to strengthen
the measure. the bill passed by the
senate at the last session OF congress
to prohibit contributions by corpora
tons to political campaign funds. The
house failed to pass the senate Pill.
very possibly for the reason that q
congressional election was looming in
the near future. and some Of the rep
.resentatives thought they might pos
sibly need little corporation fiat" 20
help them through. With no such con-
tingency confronting it this year the
house thought it could afford to pass
the bill and put it up to the senate for
passage or slaughter as the upper
house may see fit.
The bill that passed the senate mere
~ made it unlawful for corporations
doing an Interstate business to contrib
ute to national campaign funds. The
house bill makes such contributions
unlawful when made by corporations
of whatever character including banks
organized under federal laws. To ma
tional, state or local campaign funds.
The measure is a first-class one, though
it is doubtful if it can be made to az
ply. except in the case of national
banks. to state and local campaigns.
Those are matters that the individual
states may be depended upon to reg
ulate for themselves, without any in
from the federal govern
ment.
Certainly campaign contributions by
corporations should be prohibited. both
By national and by state legislatures.
1t should be made impossible for the
directors Of any corporation to get to-
sether and appropriate money that be-
longs to the stockholders for the ad-
vancement of the political fortunes of
any man or Of any party. Individual
officers of corporations may do as they
please. If they want to give their own
money TO campaign funds they cannot
be prevented from doing So but they
can and they must be prevented from
digging into the pockets of other peo-
pie.

CHAPTER XII.

Deep in Lord Bayneham's heart
there fingered nall ieenng of regret
for Barbara. Not that he loved her:
he had never cared more for her than
he did at this present time Her true
nobility of character struck him as it
had not done before. He could not
quite forget her words,-so true, so
free from all affectation, so full of
love for him. While they fingered
that day in his ears, he did not seek
Hilda.
Barbara Earle was not one who did
anything imperfectly. The rest Of
that day-the one on which she had
given her lover his freedom-was spent
in her own room. What It cost, no
one ever knew. Barbara shut herself
up with her sorrow. and spoke not

she came down to breakfast, there was
new beauty in her face, the beauty of
calm. serene resolve; the storm had
passed over. and all outward trace of

That morning. when breakfast was
over, Lady Bayneham said she had
some shopping to do;so the carriage
was ordered. and Barbara invited to
join her; but Miss Earle said she had
another engagement, and the countess
drove away alone.
Barbara waited in the drawing-room
until her cousin came in. He looked
careworn and tired, as though no sleep
had visited him.

THE "TETRAHEDRAL."
Attempted Solution Of the Problem
of Mans Flying.

of Mans Flying.
It is a queer thought that grave
and famous scientists sometimes be-
take themselves in dead earnest to
the childhood sport Of blowing bub-
bles.--not for sport, but to study some
very dificult and hard-to-understand
problems that trouble their learned
minds. Perhaps 1t Is even queerer to
see a man whose name is known tho
world over for his learning, his inven-
tions, his wonderful mind and his
earnestness In the pursuit of knowl-
edge, chasing after a queer-looking
kite and noting its behavior. and do
ing this, too, in the most serious man
ner.
For it Is serious matter, this
scientific kite-hying. and the work.
as it is done by DIR. Alexander Ora
ham Bell, the famous inventor OF the
Bell telephone and dozens of other
useful things, Is a task which ne
hopes will some day result In a prac.
tical solution of that most battling OF
riddles-how is man to learn to ny!
That a plane surface Of not too
great weight, properly held at an
angle with moving air, will rise In
the air and stay up, is fact known
to every boy who eyeg begged rags
from mother" for the tail IS his kite.
The problem of flying" Is t. get
kite big enough to hold man or
men, strong enough to stand the
strain, steady enough to fly without
danger and stable enough to fly with.
out a cord and to alight without de
stroying itself!
1t would seem that If kite Of, say,
ten square feet surface would lift ten
pounds in a certain wind, a kite OF
twenty square feet would lift twenty
pounds, and thirty square feet thirty
pounds, and so on. But. unfortunate
ly for this easy solution of the prob
lem, when two or more kites are ad-
ded, each to each, they lack strength.
and, to get the strength, more weight
must be put into the frames and In
cross bars and braces; so that. when
the kite gets very large. indeed, large
enough to lift great deal OF weight
1t weighs as much as il will lift! To
make kite which would grow strong
er as it was made larger-a kite the
lifting power of which would increase
Just as fast as the weight, and which
would be Just as strong Tin proper
tion) big as it was smau-was the
first step in DR.. Bells problem. This
has been done, within wide limits. and
the result is kite called by the
hard name of "tetrahedral."
The tetrahedral kite files easily; Il
WIN rise from the ground without
mans havine to run with the cord,
except in the lightest Of breezes. It
will fly in dead calm If pulled fast
enough. 1t has no tail. and needs
none; but 1t files more steadily In
some shapes than In others. and bet
ter with the cord at one place than
another, and these, also. are special
problems that will have to be worked
out to obtain the best results.-From
