LIFE IN BERLIN.
An Exchange for MISUNDERSTANDING
or Ten Concerts a Day.

or Ten concerts LAY.
From the Queen.
The idea that Berlin is essentially a
modern, go-ahead business center with
little or no interest for the signtseer or
curio hunter is perhaps somewhat ex-
aggerated; but the strongest argument
against its tourist value is that it leads
noWhere-except to Russia, where scarce
ly any one goes for pleasure.
To lovers of the picturesque the modern
houses broad streets with network OF
tramlines, some dozen of brand new
luxurious hotels and the ever varying
with fashion architectural style Whlch
is Succession, old German, rocco, and.
worst of all. a mixture of the three in the
residential parts. all these are eyesores.
There is a perpetual restlessness from
which 1t is impossible to get away In
Berlin one must get on-push on. hurry
Chat any cost. But curiously the Der
liners do not in their scramble neglect
minor details, such as minute order and
cleanliness in every path OF NE.
This has been topic for carlcature
and ridicule for many years. but there is
no doubt that the order has become now
more a natural development than police
enforcement. A city growing at the pace
ness it concentrates. must have order.
Artistically it is In very curious If
not unique position. The art of the past
is wonderfully represented in the mu-
seums. The Kaiser Friedrich Gallery con-
tains some of the priceless gems Of Eu-
rope. But 1t is the art of today which
is all important. and in no other city is
the commercial value of art valued to
such point.
Musically, Berlin Is a stock exchange
for artists. 1t is the junction from which
they radiate, and therefore students flock
there from all corners of the earth, be-
cause they know that there they will find
a center. 1t is bewildering to the mere
onlooker to even imagine nine or ten con-
certs a day, but since the quarters Of

AGAINST The TARIFF BILL
PHILIPPINE ASSEMBLY UNANI-
NOUS IN OPPOSITION.
Declares That It Will Cause Loss in
Revenue-Resolutio Goes to
the Commission.

MANILA, March 27.-Mr. Quezeon of
the majority in the Philippine assembly
today presented resolution embodying a
memorial to Congress opposing the Payne
tariff bill
The assembly amended Quezeon's reso-
luton by adding the declaration that In
the belief of the legislature the passage
Of the Payne bill would prove prejudi-
cial to the independence Of the Philip
pines. Then it was adopted without d.
vision.
Assemblyman Lukban of Manila advised
the acceptance of the terms OF the .'ayne
iill and d few other members apparently
were opposed to the resolution, but when
clause relative to the future independ-
ence of the islands was inserted there
was no further opposition and a motion to
make the vote unanimous prevailed.
Loss of Revenue Predicted.
The resolution recited the provisions of
the bill and then declared its enactment
would be prejudcial to the interests of
the Filipino people. especially so far as 1t
concerns an economic administration.
The resolution then continued: 1.-The con-
t.nuation Of the bill would produce a
great loss of revenue for the insular
treasury, so much so that it would be i'm
possible to sustain the present govern
ment. The financial condition of the
country is such that it would be impossi-
BILE to impose new taxation, direct or in
direct"
l.. resolution approves a resolution
adopted in May, 1903. which asked the
admission of sugar and tobacco to Amer
lea without any concessions hereafter.
and insists upon the adoption by Congress
of that resolution. In conclusion it pro-
tests "respectfu ly but energetica .ly"
against free trade for America here and
limitation on Philippine products in Amer
lea. The resolution also declares that the
Philippine legislature cannot in any pos
sible manner devise new means for pro-
ducing an income to maintain its govern
ment.
The resolution was under discussion for
several hours.
Will Go to the Commission.
The resolution, which is joint one,
will go to the Philippine commission.
That body, it is expected. will decline to
concur.
Commissioner Smith has gone to Ba-
guio for a conference with his CO leagues.
and It, is expected that the commission
will consider the. resolution early next
week.
Smith expresses the belief that the COM
mission will succeed in devising a plan
to reduce the prospective deficit to about
million pesos.

The American Breakfast.

From the London Chronicle.
AS to the British breakfast, what is that
meal-albeit proverhial-compared with
the American? The writer has kept, as q
document to serve in the curious inter-
national accusation of overeating, tho
menu of an American breakfast. 1t Is
the bill of fare at a great Californian
hotel, and it contains-well. everything
there is But the home American does
likewise; an orange begins the meal. por-
ridge urges if on to beefsteak, a chop.
large potatoes i'm their skins, fish. stewed
fruit and bread hot from the oven and
heavily buttered. The weight, the sub
stance. the variety, the length, the heat
of the repast seem to give the slender
name of breakfast a new meaning.

Located Near Dupont Circle.

In accordance with the provisions of
the District appropriation act. approved

English and American Education.

From the IOndOn SptctAIOr
Americans educate the mass, while We
have always educated the leaders. In

couraging the promising pupils; we build

our Indifference to the question of what
class of society they may come from Is
sufficient proof of our genuinely demo-
cratic habit of mind. 1t has been the
immemorial practice of England 10 train

when most citizens were receiving no edu-
cation at all. Americans rather concen-

do is to advance the average of educa-
