EVERLASTING FUN IN CAMP
z. M. C. A. BOYS ARE SUNBURN-

Serious Moments as Well as Base
Ball, Swimming and Other Sports.
Bennie and Tip Awake Camp.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
WASHINGTON BOYS CAMP, South
River, Md, July with Bennie Gold
smith and his dog Tip as the official
alarm clocks of the camp and with old
Uncle Dick, the colored cook. serving his
fourth year in charge of the camp, still
ON the job, everything is going strong.
That great stumbling block to the hap
piness of most of camp life. getting the
campers up early, has been satisfactorily
overcome through the wisdom of Uncle
Dick. He told Bennie Goldsmith the first
day out if people sleeping in camp lay
abed Ave minutes after sunrise on South
river they would be sick for the rest of
the day.
Bennie fell for it. He moved out of
Tent No and made bed for himself
and Tip. the dog, alongside the campfire
on the beach.
Thus it has come about that Benny and
his dog Tip are the official awakeners Of
the camp. Although all the other boys
do not follow too closely on the heels of
the awakeners, there is not much COM
fort for those who linger sleepily after 6
clock.
Morning Dip Is Appetizer.
Even the boys in Director Chesleys
tent are ready for business when the
whistle sounds at half-past for the
morning dip. And as an appetizer this
same morning dip has all the drugs on
the prescription list beaten. If you have
any doubt about it. ask ''Unc'e Dick who
is eighty years old, and who saw the first
steam railroad train start on its original
trip.
1t is Mr." and Yes SIR to every boy
from Uncle Dick That may be the
reason the youngsters respond SO willing

But Uncle Ben" Larrimore, Uncle
Dick and Benny and his dog Tip are
not the only features of this camp,
which is the largest and most successful
of any of the outings yet conducted by
the boys department of the Washington

After the tents and cots have been put
in order, having been been thoraughly lho1 aired l.
clock. All the boys and leaders then
sit down under one of the big oak trees
on the hillside overlooking the river and
bav and talk for little while of serious
things. of the elements that make sturdy
character. and OF the traits lhd' iidhe
manly men.
services are the most impressive incidents
of day's life In camp. The boys are
encouraged to make many suggestions in
the morning talk and to remember at
least one thought brought out at that
time.
Base Ball Games Popular.
OF course everybody is strong for base
ball. so strong in fact that camp
league was organized In the early days,
with a team from each of the five tents.
There are just nine boys in each tent,

DINGLEY LAW - YEARS OLD
Present Tariff Measure Lasted Longer
Than Any Previous Law.

Washington, D. c., July 27.-With
probably only few more days to live
the Dingley tariff, that was enacted
into law at 4.06 p. M, July "a, 1897
has surpassed in longevity all prev
ious revenue measures in the history
of the Government.
The Wilson revenue law, which pre-
ceded the Dingley bill, was a Demo
cratic measure and became law Oh
August "a 1894, without the approval
of President Cleveland. 1t was in
force almost three years. The next
earliest act, the Mckinley law, was in
force from Oct 1, 1890, to the date OF
the enactment of the Wilson bill in
1894
The tariff of March 8, 1888, ran for
seven years, while that of 1874 had q
life of about nine years. During the
civil war and for several years after
ward revisions of specific schedules
were frequent, depending on the par
ticular needs of the Government fol-
revenue consequent upon the demands
of the war
Earlier tariffs ran for varying peri
DDS, but none approaches the Dingley
tariff in the length of time covered OIL
the revenue collected. A conservative
estimate of the duties collected under
the Dingley tariff since 1897 places
the total at approximately $S,4O0,0O0,-
900.
