Well. since you raised his salary, captain, and gave him his extra work naturally he's anxious to make good" again prompted the superintendent Anxious to make good? Well. he'll have a chance, and soon at that"
 Mrs. Brooks rose, hand outstretched. and went to him, with happy, grate- ful smile.
 ''Now that it's out want to thank you ever so much," she said.
 Thank me?"
 "Yes. for Joe's raise and that six months back pay"
 'He told you that?"
 "Sure he did" put in Smith.
 "He has forbidden me 10 speak of it 10 either you or Jimsy,"s Emma told him, but since you nave mentioned it first can thank you. can't Iy''
 He did not return direct answer. but rubbed his chin dubiously as be said:
 "so raised his pay, eh? And dated it back six months"
 "Of conrse you did" asseyerated Smith with emphasis. Don't let him fool you, Emma"
 'You don't know how happy it's made us all," went on Mrs. Brooks gratefully. 'I feel like a new woman, and mother appreciates 1t"
 "Well, seems that I done all these things
 He stopped abruptly as the door opened and his eyes rested on Brooks. The latter's underjaw dropped, and he turned liyid with fear at the unex- pected presence of the captain. He was, in fact so startled that he nearly collapsed.
 "Ca-captain Williams!' he stammer- ed. advancing tremblingly toward him. 'W-will you shake hands, captain?'. Sure" replied Williams in firm voice. Flow are you. Brooks? ''1-I'm all right, l guess

 Mrs. Brooks, startled and alarmed, gazed at her husband.
 "Why, Joe. are you sick?" she de. manded.
 No. DO! Maybe it's the heat" he replied weakly, passing his tongue over his dried lips.
 There was moment of general. en- barrassment, during which Captain Williams took stock of the room.
 "You are fixed up mighty snug here, Mrs. Brooks" he commented, breaking the awkward silence.
 .'Yes. it is pleasant" she answered, now seriously worried.
 Williams rose. "Well, must go," he remarked.
 Do you want me to go with your? asked Joe.
 No; tomorrow morning will do to see you. You know my lonely little quarters ain't more'n half block from here. and l like to hang out there" "The captain" added Smith, Hives in little south sea island nook moved

WRIGHTS READY
 TO MAKE TESTS

Washington, June 22.-The propellers were put in place on the Wright aero plane at Fort Myer today. With the exception of the motor, the machine is practically ready for flight.
 Tomorrow the two brother avia,ors will install the motor. It will proba bly, be impossible for Orville Wright to make a fight before Thursday or Fri day, unless the motor sh ould be found to require little tuning up." Despite the short time remaining. the Wrights are not hastening matters unduly In order to insure clear field for the aeroplanists and to prevent any ac- cident happening to the spectators, Maj. Fred s. Foultz has been detailed ito maintain a complete patrol of the field over which Orville Wright will fly. Thousands of people are expected to attend the fight. including President Taft. Many people have remained longer than usual in the city before their summer vacation for the expected performance. The heat has been In tense in the sh ed where Orville ana Wilbur Wright are working, but large part of the rear wall was cut out today for air.

BORN TO THE
 KING AND QUEEN OF SPAIN

LaGrana. Spain, June 22-Queen Vic toria gave birth to a daughter al 6;25 a. m. today.
 When it was learned last night that the accouchment was imminent the members of tn e royal family the pre- mier and a number of high court per sonages were hastily summoned to the palace.
 The birth of a princess is particuarly pleasing to both the King and Queen as they hoped that this child, the third, would be girl. The first two children are boys, Prince Alfonso, born May 10, 1907, and Prince Jaime, born June 23, 1908. The eldest, the heir to the throne is fair like his mother, but he has the protruding lip of his father, pronounced characteristic of the Span ish Hapsburgs. The second son, on the other hand, has dark complexion and. looks the real Spaniard. He was named after Jaime. the conqueror, King of Aragon. as compliment to the province of Catalonia which formed a part of the ancient kingdom.

Colonel Hepburn Is In
 FaDor~ Of Income 70N

Washington, June 22.-CSpecial.) )-Sena- tor Bailey is expected to make an ex- haustive speech on Thursday on the in- come tax and the other matters that have been brought to the front as result of the efforts of many of the senators to force a settlement of this question during the present session.
 Former Representative Hepburn of Iowa, who though defeated for re-elec- tlon, still keeps fully abreast of things, says he is in favor of the proposed tax on corporations. But at the same time he believes that the real way to get at the subject of direct taxation is to make a provision for an income tax. Colonel Hepburn thinks 1t Is only a question of time until income taxes are imposed, in- tended to reach everyone equitably in proportion to his property.
 "So far as the corporation tax is con- cerned," said Colonel Hepburn q am for it, not so much because of the money 1t will raise, as because of the things 1t will accomplish. It will give the gov ernment a large measure of control over the corporations It will enable the gov ernment to look into the books of these gentlemen and see what their earnings really are I take 1t, 1t would prevent a repetition of what happened in the Chi cago and Alton deal for instance"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-06-23

But while he sees that much may be accomplished by a tax on the net earn ings of corporations, Colonel Hepburn takes the view that tax on incomes Is the preferable way to raise such taxes as the government may require, addition al to the present taxes.
 More than this Colonel Hepburn says he doubts the wisdom of exemptions. He thinks that the net earnings of all cor porations should be taxed if there Is to be taxation of corporations; that If the government goes into the business of taxing incomes, all incomes should be taxed in proportion to their ability to pay He believes the effect of such course would be good and that it would enhance the interest taken by the people In the government. He points out that every man who pays something to the government directly Is pretty apt to be interested in how his money is spent, how the governments fiscal affairs are han dled +
 'roo few people cone Into contact with the government" said Colonel Hepburn Under the present system of indirect taxation very few people know from ex- perience that the goyernmnt really ex- ists. About all that do know 1t are the people who pay tobacco and liquor taxes Under a system of income taxation it would be different"

SENATE REACHES
 THE VOTING STAGE

Washington, June 22.-Late today the Senate reached the voting stage on the hide schedule, and after several amend ments had been uefeated the amendment of the finance committee fixing a duty of 10 per cent ad valorem on hides was agreed to, 46 to 3O This Is the rate of the present law, but under the ruling of the treasury department Is applicable only to hides weighing, more than 25 pounds. The House placed all hides on the free list. but the committee restored the Dingley policy by adding them to the non-dutiable list The Senate sus- tained It's committee.
 Senator McLaurin undertook to have the provision amended so as to make the duty applicable to hides weighing less than 20 pounds, but failed, his amend ment being voted down 3l to 4s An amendment by MT Stone, placing not only bdes but many of their products on the ftee list, was also lost
 Just before adjournment at o'clock Senator Aldrich, on behalf of the finance committee, presented the committees new lumber schedule and also a number of amendments relating to linoleum and oil cloth The committee proposed a rate of N.50 per thousand on sawed lumber, which is aN50 cent increase over the House rate. Neither the lumber nor linoeum sched- ules was acted on

telephone he saw the man walking down the street mingling with the crowds with an apparent air of unconcern.
 The police reached the scene five min utes later, but the stranger had disap- peared.
 At the time of the robbery several hun dred persons were In the vicinity of the building and many noted the arrival at the bank and the departure of the mgr but his manner gave no indication oy his purpose. Several declared that he climbed into an automobile after walking several blocks. but the police place little credence in this assertion, and it is believed he is still in Fort Worth.
 Tonight searching parties are out in force and every place of possible hiding is being searched.
 An interurban car which left Fort Worth at O clock for Dallas was over taken by officers i1 an automobile and the car searched, but this, the most plausible means of escape for the man, had not been utilized
 According to Cashier King the man was about 35 years old, tall and slender and apparently man of refinement and was modishly dressed.
 The loss to the Waggoner bank is cov- cred by insurance. The bank has, how ever, offered a reward of 5000, and like sum will probably be offered by the city for the capture of the highwayman.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-06-23

The accouchment was in every re- spect successful The dowager Queen Christina, the mother of King AL fonso, and Princess Beatrice mother of Queen Victoria, were at the bedside of her majesty.
 The booming of 15 guns announced the birth of a girl and the rejoicing thereafter was general. Half an hour later the King, accompanied by the mistress of the robes, his face beam- ing with joy at the happy deliverance of the Queen and the fulhllment of their wishedfor a daughter proudly presented the infant to the digntares assembled in the ante-chamber.
 The King has been sh howered with congra tula tions and in commemoration of the event he signed the pardon of several prisoners and reduced the pun ishments for a number of others.
 The princess will be named Beat rice, after her grandmother. The bap- tism has been fixed for June 27.
 Queen Victoria of Spain is daughter of the late Prince Henry of Batten- burg and Princess Beatrice daughter of the late Queen Victoria of Great Britain. She was married to King Al fonso of Spain May 31, 1908.

LIBERIA HAS TROUBLES
 THAT NEED CLEARING UP

Sierra Leone railway, and as this is the center of important trade routes, the matter Is of utmost concern to Liberia as the extension of the British rail- way into this strip would divert the trade to Sierra Leon from the Hinterland without the payment of duties to Liberia.
 The Birmingham, with the other Amer jeans, went south to visit the Kru coast and the French boundary. With regard to this boundary there does not seem to be any serious question. The government, however, seriously complains of interfer- ence on the part of the British in an attempt to establish full authority over the natives of Kru coast.
 These conditions, together with compl- cations which have arisen in connection with Englishmen who are employed in the military department of Liberia, have aroused intense enmity against everything English. When the commission arrived at Monrovia they were welcomed as saviours, but they pointed out that they had come only as advisers.
