Will Offer the Proof.

By newspaper quotations he main
tanned that no question could be raised
as to the pledge of the party for re-
vision downward, and declared that be
fore he should conclude his speech he
would demonstrate that on the whole
the Payne bill placed the customs du-
ties above the Dingley rates. Since the
enactment of the Dingley law and until
1904, he said, the control of trusts had
been extended to 1864 plants with a
capital of more than twenty billion
dollars.
Senator Nelson also spoke, and quoted
numerous comparisons between the eX-
listing laws and the pending measure
with the intention of showing that in the
cotton schedule the rates had been
raised from 20 to so per cent above the
Dingley law by the substitution OF spe-
cific for ad valorem duties.
Senator Gore again quoted dividends
and surplus earnings of New England
cotton and wooden manufacturing com
panies to sustain his contention that
these corporations make large profits
and Senator Frye in reply declared that
taking into consideration both success
full and unsuccessful cotton and wooden
mills, a profit of not more than per
cent had been realized by New England
manufacturers upon their investments
in these industries. Senator EIkins
spoke at length. advoca ting q duty on

SOMEWHAT SARCASTIC
LA TOILETTE DECLARES THAT
MONOPOLY is THE DIRECT
RESULT OF THE TARIFF.

Washington, June with the adop-
ton of a resolution providing for day
and night sessions, beginning tomor-
row, the senate today heard a sugges-
ton Of a policy for limiting dilatory
motions which caused an earnest pro-
test from Senator Bacon and others.
The vice president, basing his action
upon a precedent made in the last con-
gress when the Aldrich- Vreeland cur
rency bill was under consideration, held
that the absence of a quorum could not
be called to the attention of the senate
if the senator occupying the floor de
Clined to yield for that purpose.
Senator Bacon declared this was one
Of the revolutionary rulings made when
the currency bill was under considera-
ton, and that under it there would be
serious abuse of parliamentary rules.
He announced his intention to obtain a
full consideration Of this question by the
introduction of a resolution to be con-
sidered by the committee on rules. A
long speech dealing with the pledge
Of party leaders with respect to a re-
vision of the tariff was begun by Sen
atcr LaFollette, and will be continued
tomorrow.

New York, June AFFAIRS of F. Au-
gustus Heinze and the United Copper
company, which have kept the federal
authorities busy because of the disap-
pearance Of the company's books needed
by the grand jury to clear up loans al
legged to have been made By Heinze
while he was head Of the Mercantile
bank during the panic of 1907, were
clarified somewhat today and yet SEEM
ingly complicated.
George Bagin, second vice president
of the United Copper company. and
secretary to Heinze, who was placed in
the TOmbs yesterday for contempt of
court, was released today. 1t is under
stood this action followed his removal
from the board of directors.
Meeting of Stockholders.
While no announcement to this effect
was made, a meeting of the stockhold-
ers was held, and this resulted in the
election of a board i'm which Baglin's
name does not appear. Mr. Heinze was
reelected a director. as was Stanley
Clifford of New York, and the following
new names appear:
David MieheIiohn. Butte Mont:
Richard Kilroy, Butte, Mont; A. A.
Durham, Salt Lake City; NJ. NJ. Joyce,
New York; George Lane Montreal;
William IT, Byrnes. Montreal, and Ad-
rian WyCkOff, Newark, n. J. These men
presumably replace seven old directors,
including Baglin and John MaCGinniss,
Chester Glass, Sanford Robinson, H. q.
Abel, ". J. Curtis and Carlos Warfield.
F. Augustus Heinze was not present
at the meeting. but his representative.
holding proxy for 100000 shares. was
on hand and it is presumed therefore

While the stockholders were meeting
the disappearance Of the books was be-

Removal of the Books.
Judge Lacombe agreed early in the
day to give Sanford Robinson. who as
a director has faced prison sentence for
alleged contempt. until Friday to an

Baglins testimony concerning the dis

in effect, that on May 10 he had been

AS to Profits.

He referred in sarcastic language to
the statement made yesterday by Sen
ator Lodge that some Of these large
earnings resulted from sales of real es-
tate fortunately acquired many years
ago, and said that the stock of the
Troy Cotton & Wooden company Of
Massachusetts had been advertised as
earning 81 per cent in 1907 without ref
erence to profits from real estate sales.
He suspected, he said, that the good
natuTed philanthrOpic manufacturers
did not divide their earnings on the
square with their laborers.'
Senator Nelson followed. 1.-THE bust

ORIGIN of Old Glory.

In tho "reminiscences of Lord Ronald
Cover is found story Of the origin Of
the stars and stripes
The "star spangled banner" OF the
American republic had its origin from
an old brass on the floor Of an ancient
church in Northamptonshire. The brass
covers the tomb Of one Robert Wash
ington and is dated 1922. On it ap-
pears the Washington coat Of arms,
consisting of three stars, with bars or
stripes beneath them. On the first day
Of the new year, 1776, the thirteen
united colonies raised a standard at
Washington's headquarters.
This introduced the stripes of the
present. but retained the crosses Of st.
George and St. Andrew on blue
ground in the, corper. In 17I7 ,ae
crosses were replaced by stars, as the
Declaration of independence rendered
the retention Of the English element
unnecessary and inconvenient. In thus
adopting the arms Of his ancestors as
his own distinctive badge Washington
no doubt intended the flag merely as a
private signal for his own personal fol
lowing, but it was at once adopted as
q national emblem. Probably there is
not another case in the worlds history
in which the private arms Of an OBJ
scure family have attained such world
wide eninence and repute.

An Awkward PLAYER.

IN 1908 King James published his
famous BOOK Of Sports and, thinking
70 render the Presbyterian form OF
worship less rigid, ordered that GER
tain Of the sports therein commended
should be played in the several church
yards every Sunday at the close Of
divine service John Ross, minister
of Blairgcwrie, adopted novel method
OF withstanding the royal ordinance.
He was a strong, athletic man and
seemed much interested in the recrea-
tions enjoined by the monarch. Foot
ball was selected by the parishioners
Of Blairgowric from the list, OF Sun
day games" When the services Of the
church were completed MI. Ross ap-
peared among his people in the church
yard and joined them in their sport
None Of the assemblage kicked more
eagerly at the football than did the
reverend incumbent. But constant
misfortune seemed to attend him. E7-
cry kick missed the ball and fell heavi-
" on the ankles Of those who stood
near. Apologies were promptly ten
dered and, Of course, received, though
every Sunday many Of the parishion>
ers returned home halting. Finally it
was agreed that on account OF the
minister's awkwardness the games
should be abandoned. Thus the in
senious divine gained his end and pre-
vented compliance with the obnoxious
order

A Purse For the Bride.

Some brides may be inclined to re-
gret that the old marriage custom OF
the dow purse has fallen into disuse.
It was the custom Of the bridegroom
to fill purse with goodly sum Of
money and present it to the bride on
the wedding day as the price OF the
purchase Of her person. 1t sounds like
slavery, like the buying of goods and
chattels, yet the bride had a nice lit
tie sum of money for her own use.
Some of the Oldest inhabitants of
Cumberland may remember similar
custom in that county. The bride
groom provided himself with a num-
ber Of gold and silver pieces, and at
the words with all my worldly goods
I thee endow'' he handed the clergy
man his fee and poured the other
coins into a handkerchief held out for
that purpose by the bride. In other
places, again, the bride had the right
to ask her husband for a gift Of money
or property on the Gay after the wed
ding, and he was bound in honor to
grant the request.-London Answers.

Queer EnaIish Laws.

never been repealed
By another unrepealed statute, which
dates back to the first year Of King
James l., it is enacted that not more
than a penny may be charged for a
quart of the best old ale nor more than
q halfpenny for a like quantity Of
small beer. The penalty for each in

Si.fv Kinds Of Bananas.

To most persons in the temperate
zones a banana is a banana. But the
truth is that there are over sixty
known varieties Of the fruit, with as
great or greater variation in character
as in the different kinds Of apples.
Hawaii is said to have something over
forty distinct varieties Of the fruit,
most Of which have been introduced
BY the whites. Some Of these are OF
extremely delicate and delicious favor,
while other kinds are used, if at all,
only when cooked in various ways.
There is, scarcely q city house lot or
country "kuleana" or homestead which
does not have a clump or two Of ba-
nanas, which grow with practically no
care, new plants or suckers shooting

Cookinq With Sunlight.

Sun cooking-roasting and boiling By
sunlight instead OF coal or Sas-has
been going on for 800 years. There
are sun stoves that roast q sirloin or
boil So TO perfection They are
only used, however, by scientists. 4
sun stove consists mainly Of mirror
a spherical mirror on q joint. There
is also a reflector. The place fef pot
or plate is so situated that the mirrors
rays can be focused on it accurately.
4 German, Baron Tchernhausen, was
the first sun cook. He began in 1851
to boil water, and in 1888 he had very
good success at baking eggs. Sir John
Herschel and Button are other IA
nous names associated with sun cook
ing. In California various sun cooks
have boiled a gallon of water in twen-
ty minutes, roasted meat in two hours
and poached eggs in fifteen minutes
quite as good time as the ordinary fire
makes. An odd thing about meat
roasted BY sun rays is that it has an
unpleasant taste. This is avoided by
the insertion of a plate Of yellow glass
between meat and mirror In all solar
stoves the sheet Of yellow glass ig-

The First Mourning PAPER.

The oldest known letter written on
black edged note paper as sign Of
mourning appears to be one dated Jan.
5, 1853. In Addison's comedy Of ''The
Drummer" Ills, reference is made to
the fashion in the words, "My lady's
mourning paper that is BACKED at the
edges" 4 few years later Allan Ram,
say, who died in 175s, speaks in one
Of his poems Of "thea sable bordered
sheet" as a messenger Of sorrow.
Mann, writing from Italy to Horace
Walpole in l745, says that it was uni
versauy used in Florence at that time.
The superior elegance Of this Italian
note paper, with its narrow margin Of
black, explains its ready acceptance in
this country. where it superseded the
quarto sheet with a black border some
times a quarter Of an inch wide. II
this way it probably gave an impetus
to the fashion. But it is 4 mistake to
suppose, as some have done, that the
fashion was introduced from Italy
