The good lady asked a lawyer if
the child could not be adopted, and
he said if the gypsies were willing.

The lady was very anxious to have
Carl though, and the lawyer did
everything in his power. but the
gypsieS could not be traced.
Meanwhile. Carl had been left in
the bushes by the roadside. as the
gypsies were afraid of being arrest
ed for his abduction, and had left
no clue to his identity, though they
had called him Carl because it was
tattooed on his left leg.
Carl was at that time seven years
old. but was very wise for a boy
of that tender age. When he realiz-
ed that he had been left alone by
the gypsies, he started to walk on
ward In various ways he finally
reached st. Louis. Here he managed
to make enough money to take him
to New York. having heard it spoken
of many times in his wandering.
When he arrived there he started
selling papers, then got a position as
office-boy. next as assistant book
keeper, as he had attended night
school, and studied diligently. He
was afterward promoted to the very
responsible position of bank-casnier.
While holding this position he had
and adventure that he could not for

He was called up in court one
day as witness and on the way back
to the bank he saved a very kind
looking old lady from being run over
by an electric car. When the old
lady saw him, she gasped, "Tbe

The Proud BuCkWheat.

BY Claire Sheppard, Grade 6, Sec. 3.
School No l., Pensacola, Fla.
In a large field there grew corn,
buck wheat, willow trees, and flowers
It was a dark evening, and all the
plants except the buckwheat droop-
ed their heads for safety.
The corn said, Buck wheat put
your head down so the rain will not
break you stalk"
The buckwheat grew very indigant
and only stood up straighter.
Then the willow said, 'Buckwheat
put your head down so that the
Tightening will not burn you"
But the buckwheat answered: l
will do as i please and she deld
her face right up to the clouds
The wind blew violently, the rain
and the tightening came, and after
it was all over the grain and flowers
stood Up refreshed and bright, and
the willow shook the rain OFF its
leaves, but the buckwheat lay Scorch-
ed and broken on the ground.
This story tells that the young
should always listen to the advice OF
the old.

THE ASQUITH CABINET.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: To the ordinary American observer 1t would
seem that the standard OF political talent in Eng
land, represented in the present Cabinet. has
fallen TO a much lower level than that which
il had attained in the latter days Of the
fury. An Asquth wabbles in the shoes of a Glad
stone, a Lord crewe attempts 10 fill the place of
Chamberlain, a Winston Churchill pretends to rep
resent his father the late Lord Randolph Churchill;
John Morley becomes a peer and Sir Edward Grey
assumes TO the mantle OF Lord Rosebery.
There is, however member OF the Asquith
Cabinet whose practical training and executive
ability him discharge the duties OF the posi-
ton TO which he has been assigned. e, John
Burns
Moreover, the science of government seems to
be settling more and into a matter of prac
teal business management, largely conducted by
clerks whose names unknown to the general
public and whose identity is merged in that of
their nominal chiefs, il IS quite possible that the
present Cabinet of England responds to the neces-
sites of the situation well If not better than,
one composed OF the more brilliant men OF the
past. 1t may also be remarked that the public
gaze IS less concentrated upon the Parliamentary
arena now than il in former days, when the
division of labor, the pursuit or happiness ana
the variety OF human interest afforded less dis
traction at the present time so that the great
Parliamentary actors OF the last century played
"a a more extended gallery and occupied more
important place in the public mind than would be
the case were those actors living now.
Then again the constantly widening diffusion of
knowledge and education among the masses has
,a,elled IN the general average of human mtelli-
gence 10 a higher plane than that to which 1t had
reached in comparatively recent days so that
Webster for instance, would not have attained to
the intellectual pre-eminence that he enjoyed IN
his time had he lived under present conditions

REVISION FOR PROTECTION.
To the Editor of The Tribune.

L
Sir: In his letter published in The Tribune of this
date Mr. Williams is evidently replying to mine OF
the 10Th inst, although he mentions name. I
agree with him that the tariff revision promised by
the Republican platform of is revision pro-
lection and 1 stated. 1 also agree that revision
might disclose the necessity for increase of d-
ties things in the interest of protection. I
fail to how the repeal of duties coal. meat.
wood pulp and paper, wheat and lumber would be
for theoretical benefit to Connecticut and Massa-
chusetts' and not for the United States" Ger
tainly these all in universal and
cessties to whole population.
They furnish little revenue. and If repeating the
duties will lessen their price 10 the whole people
that is sufficient for such repeal. He makes
a good argument that slight increase of duties on
cotton linen. silk and wooen goods. and steel.
leather earthen. stone. china and glass might
transfer some of the trade to American factories
and furnish employment to people-to all of
which l agree-and then in the very next sentence
says, stop the incessant agitation for tariff re
vision; let the Dingiey bill alone" If, as he says,
such revision in those lines would improve condi-
tions to the extent of setting to work million Of
idle men. why not continue the agitation
finish?
Why let the Dinsley bill like an old wagon
with loose tires and rafting spokes? Why not fix
it up whenever it needs mending, tighten the loose
nuts, add spoke here and there. put it in first
class condition and then let it again till it
needs another overhaulng? I yield to IN
advocacy of the policy of protection. This may
mean either increase reduction of duties, but the
schedule must be changed conditions change in
order to continue effective.

"GIVE BINGHAM $1,000, ooo."

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: This country IS the home of the downtrod-
den and oppressed. Our open doors have been so
conspicuous that there isn't a Jail in Europe that
has not sent some recruits TO glorify and embelsh
our patriotism. In the first hundred years of our
existence we have lost three great presidents. Men
who nursed their murderous ideas on the other
side have tried them out here. twenty-five years
ago efforts were made by Congress to stop this I'M
desirable influx. bet the politician who count
ing the votes was generally missed in his seat at
rollcan Washington and/his patriots certainly
fought hard to give home to a lot Of these
wretched assassns and bomb throwers.
Mr.. Bingham wants 100000 to help clear out
these wretches He ought not to have it. He
should have million! It's good investment in
good cause. If 1t cost a million to dump them all
in sewer 1t would be a good thing for the coun-
try. I imagine Patrick Henry standing over in
front Of a BOwery lodging house and making his
famous address liberty! When we begin TO send
men to represent US who not afraid of their
real convictions, instead Of a lot of muttonheads
and cabbage plants, may legislation in
the right direction.
President Roosevelt and others have begun a
in the right direction. The time may come
when rulers may go around not like the
crowned heads Of Europe. looking for bombs in
every direction. but representatives OF the people
who have sent them to do their duty. Let Mr..
Bingham chase q few of them as a farmer
would go for copperhead. They are in the way
and We need the room. I'll howl for liberty as
loud the next one. but not for the nurderous
coward who is blot civilization.
