France Sent Castro Back to Europe

The plans of ex-President Castro to re-
turn to Venezuela and take up again the
reins OF government have been frustrated
by the prompt action of France. Castro
recently arrived at Fort de France. island
OF Martinique, on his way back and there
was a prospect OF stirring times ahead.
The United States and several European
governments that have had disputes Of
long standing with Venezuela were much
concerned inasmuch as their claims are in
process OF settlement since Gomez took
the presidency, and they decided to head
of Castro. France warned him to leave
Martinique by the first boat, which, il
was well known, returned to France.
Castro had a convenient relapse Of illness,
but was forced to leave notwithstanding,
being carried aboard the ship in litter.
He protested energetically. France will
permit him to remain in her European
territory, where he cannot raise a disturb
ance.

EVENTS OF THE WEEK.
Payne Tariff 6In Passes House.

I @tN TG18G2 F1Q0&G.
After three weeks OF consideration. the
Payne tariff bill was passed by the House
OF Representatives Friday by a vote of 217
to l6l. One Republican from Tennessee
voted against the measure and four DEM
ocrats, all from Louisiana, voted for it.
Wnen the bill was actually passed, the
hepu olicans cheered Justify, some dane
ing up and down the aisles and patting
their fellow members on the back.
In spite OF personal appeal By Speaker
cannon, a combination of Democrats and
insurgent Republicans put crude petrole-
um and its products on the free list
largely out of feeling against Standard
Oil. Tea and coffee were placed on the
free list. A maximum duty Of 20 per
cent on coffee and cents a pound on tea
had been proposed in the original bill.
The draw back section was added to the
bill, 80 that il could not be taken advan-
tage Of at once for the purpose Of specu-
lating in grain, and the Philippine free
trade provision was amended SO that rice
will not be admitted free from the
islands.
The countervailing duty clause on lum-
Der was stricken out, but a strong effort
to place lumber on the free list did not
succeed.
The internal revenue law was amended
so that raisers OF tobacco will not have to
pay manufacturers license in order to
dispose of their leaf tobacco. There were
several technical changes in the steel
schedule, principally downward. Hides,
hosiery and gloves were left as reported
by the committee, hides remaining free
and an increased duty. being presented for
gloves and stockings.
An inheritance tax, by which it is
hoped S20, 900, 900 will be collected is pro-
vided for. The internal revenue Law is
expected to produce 81 500, 900 additional
revenue because OF the increase in the tax
on cigarettes.
1t is estimated that the changed rates
in the Payne bill made by the House will
reduce the revenues by $40, 00O, 900 a year.
The Senate has already prepared a sub
stitute for the Payne bill, increasing the
duties on articles of luxury and providing
for larger revenues. Many OF the duties
will be increased.

REVEALED BY GUESSING GAME
Ills lordship Found Out What the
 Servants Thought of Him.

A certain peer. an important figure in the upper chamber by reason or a very long and very bushy beard, had dismissed his valet for the night Shortly afterward, however, he was much annoyed to hear peals of laugh. ter from below. and called back the man to explain.
 The valet answered that 1t was just little joke, but his lordship would have none of 1t, and demanded details. angrily.
 We'll" admitted the man with re- iuctance. "it was really a little game we were having, my lord"
 What kind of a gamer"
 Well. my lord. a kind of guessing game"
 Don't be . fool, Walters; I rang for you in order to get an explanation. What guessing game were you play ing? Guessing what?"
 We blindfolded the cook, to tell you the truth, my lord. and then one of us kissed her and she had to guess who it was. The footman held the mop up and she kissed 1t, and then cried out: o. your lordship; how dare ycu?'"- Dundee Advertiser.

A road built on such principles will last almost to the end of time. The making and the necessity for good roads were we'll un. de,stood by the old Romans and the military roads built by them in Eng land, France, Spain and Italy are still
 Aduring monuments to their skin as

 If any country in the world needs good roads it is Arizona and several of our enterpising counties are nov. ing in that direction. Notably Mari. copa, Gila and Yavapai. Pima has done nothing yet, but, in the sweet bye and bye she will awaken from her long sleep and road building will commence in earnest. No country under the sun is harder on vehicles than southern Arizona. The intense dryness of the country opens every joint in a wagon and the impalpable dust is worked in. At each move of the wagon this is repeated more and more and a new wagon soon becomes an old one and visit has to be made to the repair shop to tighten up' al- most before the wagon has left the hands of the dealer. For this and many other reasons Arizona should have good roads. It is one of the things it pays to have.

 Dinner is served" said Keith, with great sormality. Whom will you take in, Don?"
 Sadie" promptly replied Don, ap- preaching the child. For an instant a word, she ran of the piazza. out of the gate, across the way-home. After her the children stared in amazement.
 Did sumpin' hurt her?' asked Sadie innocently.
 No" answered Don, with inborn tacs; "she isn't doin' to be at my party" But his very soul darkened within him. In that hour the glamour of Ethel faded away forever. As he listened to Sadie's sweet voice, looked into her bright face. and listened to her happy chatter. his heart sought sanctuary for the second time. He loved Sadie He would tell Ethel, and soon. that he no longer cared to be- come her husband when he was a big man. She also must know his feel ings. So, after beautiful dinner and a gay hour of play afterward, when he and Sadie were seated a little apart from the other children, he preached the delicate subject to her. She stared, then laughed merrily.
 My, what a funny boy you are!" she said. Don't you know that lame little girls like me don't be big ever?'
 A shadow crossed the boys sensi. tive face. For a moment he felt dazed, then he said: Maybe I'll stay little like you"
 At which Sadie laughed even more merrily. You are awftil funny boy, Dou," she repeated.
 Looking distinctly hurt. Don turned and walked toward the motor car, which was coming up from the garage to take the little ones home Some thing drew his eyes to the house across the road. There. peeping be. tween the iron bars of the gate, was small. peeyish face-a lonely child, self exiied. A day ago the sight would have thrilled Don to pity, but not now His mind was otherwise occupied.

FOREST SCHOOLS
 TO BE HELD IN DECEMBER.

The heads of all universities, col leges, and schools in which technical forestry is taught have been invited by Clifford Pinchot, United States forester, to attend ur send a repre- sentative to the Conference on Edu- eaton in Forestry which will be held in Washington in December. In his letter of invitation, the Forester says:
 T believe that a conference of representatives of all forest schools and universities and colleges in which forestry is taught might be made of great value to the general progress of forestry in the United States, as we'll as to the institutions which teach forestry, and to the Forest Service. which employs so many of their graduates, and which is vitaliy inter ested in the best training of foresters. Such a conference might well con slider the objects and methods of for. est instruction, the organization and standards of educational work in the field of forestry, the coordination of the work of different institutions. and the needs of the Forest Service and other employers of forest graduates
 T hope you will find 1t possible to be present or to send delegate to a conference of this kind, which. with the concurrence of the institutions concerned. will be held in Washing ton, December 30 aLl 31. 19oe."

CIothespin Industry.

From the Boston Transcript.
 The announcement is just made that a big clothespin manufacturing com pany in Michigan has pulled up stakes and proposes to relocate in Maine, an other instance of getting close to the raw material, for perhaps the Pine Tree State contributes more to the small utilities of American life than any other, though this is not a case of pine, but of paper birch. The Indian valued this wood for it's bark, from which he made canoes, baskets and other articles; but the demands of our more recent civilization have found multitude of uses for the wood The Indian probably had little need of toothpicks, since he preserved his teeth by using bone-malSihg foods. He had even less use for clothespins and spools, hairpin boxes, bobbins and shuttles, which now consume many cords of paper birch annually. The spool industry Is perhaps the most i'm portant of those dependent upon naper
