Reforming the Head Hunters.

A curious development is In steady
progress In the Solomon Islands, the
group in the south Pacific which lies
to the west of New Guinea, whose
people have earned such unenvlable
notorlety as head hunters. The young
men Of the tribes in these fertile and
beautiful islands are abandoning the
historic pursuit which has made them
dreaded for centuries In the south
seas and are taking to the copra in
dustry. Copra, which is the dried in
terror of the cocoanut. is valued COM
merclally for the oil which can be
pressed from 1t. and some of the young
Solomon islanders are accumulating
considerable wealth by extracting It,
though the older generation, to whom
head hunting is still the only profess
sion for a gentleman, are said to look
down upon them as being "in trade"

THE PACK pEDDLER.

Missed.
I had been thinking that the old style
pack peddler was no more or that he
existed only in ont of the way locall-

with the pack is as common In the
farming districts Of Illinois as grass
hoppers or prickly heat.
The Oldest inhabitant in my neigh
borhood, who lives across the field
from me, says that one pack peddler
has nested in our part of the country
time out of mind. Where he comes
from with his assorted conglomeration
of dry goods and hardware nobody
knows; also where he goes after he
has exhibited his wares and turned an
honest nickel is mystery. This gen
eral merchandise pedestrian has made

BENERIDGE PLEADS FOR
TARIFF COMMISSION BILL

washington, req. J.-SendtOr BGN-
eridge. of Indiana, today delivered an
appear to the senate to adopt his bill
providing for a non partisan tariff
commission, plan which, he declar-
ed, confOrmed with modern business
ideas on this subject. He spoke for
an hour and a half. receiving the
careful attention of senators and a
large audience in the galleries. There
were present many delegates of com
mercial bodies now in session in this
city
Following Senator Beveridge's ad-
dress several democratic senator's
spoke briefly on the general subject
of the tariff, and at ASS the senate
adjourned.
When Senator Beveridge concluded
his remarks Senator CuIberson, Of
Texas, remarked that the senator from
Indiana was to be congratulated be-
cause in some degree at least he had
joined the army of tariff revisionists.
He said it had been announced in
the newspapers that a decree had been
issued on the republican side that the
tariff could not be inquired into at
this time.
Mr., Culberson called attention to
what ne SAID was an abuse, that the
ad Valorom tarin Is now 40 per cent
that it is greater than the difference
between the cost OF labor mere ahG
abroad; that many articles manulac-
tured IN the United states are sofa
abroad cheaper than IN inns county
and that a protective taflH encourages
trusts. He then asked to nave insert
