Little Rock, May ,. - Reaching the final section of the State Capitol bill late in the afternoon, without amending any of the previous sections, the House hung up for the day with the understanding the bill was privileged matter and could be called up at any time. Amend ment after amendment was of tered until 1t came down to the tax levy for state capitol pur- poses. Combs of Madison moved this tax be repealed. After some discussion vote was taken. Hurst of Washington who was presiding over the House in a com mlttee of the whole declared the vote a tie, 40 to 40 and the amendment was accordingly lost. An amendment was then offered to abolish the tax in 1910 it be- Ing argued sufficient sum would then be raised for the completion or the building. Before a vote could be taken on this the House adjourned.
 On every section of the bill. as passed by the Senate. amend ments were offered. The hard light or the afternoon was on the section which permits the commissioners to use the balance of a fund appropria ted for the completion of one part of the building, for the completion of another if needed. The amend ment was finally defeated. After thls defeat, another amendment came up for the prohibition of the use of any portion of the Sl7o, ,OOO appropria ted for the replacing of defective material and the tearing it away. for any other purpose. This too was vot- ed down. The amendment ofrered Tor the letting Of the contract to the lowest competitive bidder was also lost. Heartsill of Sebas- tan offered an amendment to require the contract to be let un- der specific contract. This brought out the hottest argu- ment of the afternoon in which Representative Heartsill roundly denounced the administration and suffered the defeat of his a. nendment by an overwhelming vote for his trouble The amend ment to strike out the free use of 100 convicts on the building was likewise lost This brought the act up to the last section and little time was taken on this before the House realized it was the toughest fight of all, and de- cided to let the matter go over

ter is the remarkable heartshaped stone which
the general and Mrs. Harrison found on one
of their honeymoon walks. Adjoining this
room is that formerly occupied by the gener-
ais secretary. This room and those on the
second noor-reached by an outside stairway
are all now utilized as guest chambers. Mrs.
Harrison is of the opinion that when there is
large house party at the lodge 1t is good for
both hostess and guests not to see too much
of one another, and consequently she gives her
visitors of independence by installing
them in a habitation of their own so to speak
Although there are IA bedrooms at Berkeley
Lodge and greater or less number of guests
are being entertained almost constantly, Mrs.
Harrison lives very simply and maintains a
most unpretentious establishment. The wants
of the household are looked after by a capable
housekeeper, George, an old colored servitor,
who has been in the employ of Mrs. Harrison
for number of years, and general utility
man, whose duties range all the way from
gardening to service guide and boatman on
the occasion of those picncs or one-day excur.

schisms That Seem Small.

Two religious sects who hated one another
bitterly were found by Sven Hedin in Tibet
Searching for the cause Of this aversion he
found that one Of the sects believed that the
prayer wheel should turn to the right while
the other was convinced that the wheel should
turn to the left In the region of the Brama-
putra he found mountain which is so sacred
that whoever walks around 1t 13 times has all
his sins forgiven. The result Of this belief
is that criminals from far and near infest this
region. When Sven Hedin started to ride
around this mountain on his horse the pill.

Located few yards distant from the main
building and connected with 1t by means of
a rustic walk is the housekeeping annex"

REVIEW OF METAL TRADE
Heavy Purchases OF Steel Rails Feature OF
the Markets ThisWeek.

The Iron Age says;
Steel rail purchases have been the
leading feature of the markets this
week. the total figuring up close to
$50, 900 tons. The Lackawanna Steel
company has accepted about 40, 900
tons for the Northern Pacific, and
8, 600 tons each for the st. Paul Bur.
lington and Lake Shore. The Ensley
mill has entered 80, 600 tons for next
year, OF which 30, 600 tons is for the
Louisville and Nashville. 90. 600 for the
Frisco, 20 600 tons for Hartman lines
and 10, 600 tons for the Atlantic Coast
line. The Illinois Steel company has
booked 80, 600 tons, which includes
40. 600 tons for Hartman lines, and
the Carnegie Steel company has taken
20. 600 tons.
There has been good deal Of act
witty, too, in track material. A short
age In steel billets is developing. 1t
seems most acute ia the Chicago dis.
trict and is making itself felt in Pitts

works are selling steel westward and
that tidewater consumers have taken
up with importers the question OF So

arly for small sizes OF bllets. Interest

Mills are steadily falling further
behind in their deliveries and buyers
OF finished material are much more
