Mr. Dixon soon discovered that MT Lodge had turned around and was talking to Senator War ren of Wyoming, and was not paying the slightest attention to him. The debate on hides Is likely to run for several days yet, and promises to be fierce one before 1t ends, as the fight between the respec- tive sides has been going on for months The impression prevails that the repub- lican members of the finance committee will carry their amendment through, and in conference it Is thought a compro- mise will be reached that will place a moderate duty upon hides. The House bill placed hdes absolutely on the free list, and the proposition was settled in that body by separate vote
 It Is understood that the Alabama sen ators are divided on the question, Sena- tor Banxhead being for free hides and Senator Johnston holding that there should be a revenue duty imposed.

 FOR CLOSE OF SESSION

engagements will not be gratified if he finds. after he gets to Beverly, that Mrs Taft's health would not permit his leav- ing on any extended Journey.
 The President now realizes that many speeches will be made and much time will be consumed in the Senate before the tariff bill is passed. There is no doubt that his message in behalf of the 8 per cent corporation tax and the income tax amendment to the constitution has added some weeks to the length of the session.
 This does not mean that he Is uneasy about the final outcome or the session He Is as firmly convinced as ever that the last form of the measure will be down. ward revision and that the recommenda- tions of his message will be accepted by both House and Senate and incorpor- ated into the law. But all this will take time, and he is prepared, his friends say, to wait in Washington until the middle of August or the first of September

Dr. Felix I. Tarrant is elected to the legislature to succeed Dr. R. V. Love- lady, resigned. Dr. Tarrant goes out of Greater Birmingham leading Boyd by 29 votes and Boyd will not carry a single box outside of Birmingham proper.
 Outside of Greater Birmingham the race is between Barnard and Tarrant. While Barnard gets Pratt City, Bessemer. Brooksde, Brighton, Blossburg, Wood ward and Wylam, but seven boxes out of the S1 heard from, Tarrant gets 20, and there is no doubt but that the remainder to be heard from will swell his majority considerably.
 The vote from 31 boxes out of the 54 in tho county gives Tarrant 1860, Barnard 16G9 and Boyd 146O. Tarrant will hardly lose single box of the 2S small precincts that have not yet reported. Barnard's strength was quite a surprisera1e recelv- ing 9 large vote from the liberal ele- ment.

 IN THE CALHOUN CASE

as Judge Iawler. resuming his seat upon the bench, announced that the jurors had requested that the testimony of one of the few witnesses who testimony involved direct mention of the defendant be read.
 The reading required about 45 minutes and while 1t was in progress Assistant District Attorney Heney, accompanied by Rudolph Spreckels, financial packer of the graft prosecution, hurried down the aisle, conferred with his colleagues to learn the reason for the jury's return and remained until the 12 men again returned to the jury room.

It must be understood, however, that an election where there are three men, and one of them. although dark horse, and not running on any issue, gets al- most as many votes as either of the oth- CTS, the result cannot be taken as an indication of public opinion on the fs- sue of Greater Birmingham.
 Returns were very hard to get last night, because there was little interest in the election in country precincts, and the polling officers carried the boxes home

keys to thorough understanding of fellow man and

Beyond doubt there would be fewer matrimonial dis
appointments if all who marry would resolve to only
good In another and seadfastly live up to that
solve. People usually find that for which they dill
gently seek and the fundamental doctrine Of the
thought is that invite what expect; to look for
good is to receive it. 1t is older thought that cour
esy and consideration for others flowers which have
their roots in charity and good will to all men.
Nowhere is charity the love which "thnketh evil,
which is not easily provoked which suffereth long and
is kind" urgently called for than in the marriage
relation; nowhere is there greater need Of faith and
hope well of love. There Is nothing which
draws people the effort do good to them and
thus love unconscousy beges love- To expect the best
of people, If there be any good in them is to bring
that good; and thank heaven, there is much good in
even the worst Of US.

SATISFIED.

My days have all been sunny,
My nights all full of dreams;
My gardens sweet with honey
My groves with singing streams;
My house, from floor to rafter,
Delight forever fills;
My life is joy and-after-
1t shall be if God wills.
My friends have all been true ones
And many have | had;
My thoughts-both old and new ones
Have evermore been glad;
My heart is light with laughter
And song that never stills;
My life is Joy and-after-
1t shall be if God wills.
