FIGHT ON LUMBER.

Washington, July 2S After working for nearly three weeks at what proved to be one of the longest and most arduous tasks ever experineced in the tariff building the majority Of the mem- oers of fthe conference committee on the Payne-Aldrich J!ll brought their labors to a sudden close at 6 o'clock tonight
 All day long the conferees had struggled with the question of bringing down the house rates on gloves and the Senate rates on lumber to figures they felt would meet with executive approval. In this effort the conferees failed and they appeared to appreciate the fact. Lumber was made duti- abe at rates only a .sttJe be- low the rates as named in the Senate bill and there was a very slight shading from the house rates on gloves of good quality
 In view of President Taft's ut terancas Senate and House lead. CTS were predicting tonight that @ confeo2as rates on gloves and .u nber would not prove satisfac- tory to bm. At the same time it was re gnized that conditions were $ !ch that unless como promises were made by the con ferees it would be many days be- fore a report could be made>
 It required a roll cal! to Tx the rates on lumber which are as follows:
 Rough, $40 thou sand feett'
 The house rate was $1 and the senate $k50,
 The senate differentials were a. dopted making lumber planed on one side rdutiable at S1.9O; two sides, S2.15 three sides 2,52 1-2 and four sides $2 90,
 The senate rates on laths and shing.es which were hgner than the house rates were adopted.

JUST A MATTER OF INQUIRY.
Why Should People Entertain or Be Entertained When It Gives
 Them No Pleasure?

"In a periodical the other day." says the amateur philosopher of the Provi- dence Tribune, "I ran across a picture of what had evidently been a musical entertainment or musicale-I took it to have been musicale for choice.
 The fiddlers had gone and so had the soloist or soloists and guests. deserted room and waste of empty chairs, along with the open grand piano.
 The hosts head was resting on his arms on a table; the hostess had re- moved her shoes and was on the verge Ter was looking on commiseratingly.
 Now, there's a good deal of that sort of thing first and last the country over. It was true to life, but I never could understand it. That is, nobody has ever explained to me why people who don't enjoy entertaining or being entertained persist in making martyrs of themselves; why anybody does something for pleasure that invari- ably gives pain?
 "A person who puts himself out and wears himself out in the line of duty is comprehensible, but why you should sacrifice yourself when you're pretending to be looking for fun is beyond me.

"Why should 1 not show my face to thee?" she went on. Am I not pretty? Sidi-Malik told me that thou couldst picture all things that are in heaven and earth, except those we do not see-Allah the Most Gracious and the djinns. I want thee to make picture of my father"
 "Is not thy father dead?" he gasped.
 He is dead" she answered gravely
 Then how can I make a picture of him? never saw his face"
 The thought of what the old ruffian must have been like made him laugh. But it all entered into Dieilma's cal culations. She added quietly:
 Then if thou canst do no more than paint pictures of living things l would fain have thee make likeness of myself. Sidi-Malik told me that he saw thee paint caravan. Surely must be more slightly than a camel?"
 "Of a truth thou art beautiful" he admitted-and she looked pleased; she had been trying to force the ac- knowledgement for quite while but does not the Koran forbid the making of pictures of living men, women and animals?"
 Even so," she retorted. "The Per sians are Moslem, too, are they not? In Syria, I saw Persian soffars make pictures of men, devils and lions on brass trays with a chisel"
 Then they were breaking the com mands"
 Perhaps they were. Still, Allah will forgive our sins in the future as he forgave in the past. Couldst thou not make a picture of me if I were dead? Then where is the difference? Why should man, who can gaze on a

Strange Regimentai cus,oma

A peculiar custom obtains in ., English regiment, the Twelfth Ian. cers-the playing of the Vesper hym, the Spanish chant( and the Russian national hymn every night after the Last Post has sounded.

When Ireland was in the king busi. ness it made a record which all the rest of the world cant beat. From their tricks Ireland had 76 kings, and out of the lot only six died in bed. Sixteen were killed in battle, seven were slain by their successors, six fell by plain assassination, three were killed by thunderbolt, two died of plague. four entered monasteries, two were drowned one died of grief, two were dethroned and one was choked by a fish5one.
