LIFE Of GOODNESS
THE BEST SUCCESS
Rev. DR.. John A. Conway
Delivers Sermon to George
town Students.

In an eloquent baccaIaureate sermon
to the graduating class of Georgetown
University at ~Dahlgren Chapel this
morning. the Rev. John A. Conway, S.
J., held up before his pupils the great
beauty OF the doctrine of rights as
taught by the church and opposed To the
doctrine of success as taught by the
world
He insisted that tbs best success in
business, IN politics. or in professional
life is as nothing to the satisfaction
when the end comes to life OF right
living
The Rev Or Conway took for his sub
ject the motto -Ncblesse ObliEe,' de-
cl;ring that he who has been elevated
above his Fellows should surpass taem in
great service TO the world. He said
this motto may well find expression in
that nobility of the highest kind as
found IN the word Christian, and that
men who are filled with the spirit sell
dom, IL ever. seek after the gaudy tin
SCI Of earthly success.
Christian History.
He held up the glorious history OF
Christianity for 1000 years and Of the
hials and sufferings Of the early Christ
ians and the victories that were theirs.
Men trace back their ancestry to
great warriors and statesmen They
glory in having the same blood as
princes and generals, but we can trace
our ancestry as Christians back TO the
very feet Of the Son of God. We are
the heirs of all those to whom is due
all that is best in the history and civil
cation of the world today. Il was from
them and their teaching that the true
doctrine of the equality of man was first
revealed; that all men are equal in the
sight of God; that all have an equally
responsible soul with the same end and
the same judge
GiYer of All.
1T was by them and their teachings
that woman was raised from the earth
to the high place in which s.oe is today.
It was from them and their teachings
that an astounded world first learned
that work ard toll originally imposed rs
a curse was a sacred thing-sacred IS
prayer itself.
Il know not what your future will Be.
but We whom you leave behind viii
pray that you viii be faithful to the
principles that YOU have received from
1000 years of Christian religion. You
viii have your trials and difficulties and
temptations, but the church today offers
the only remedy for all the Ills of tle
soul"

Comparative Tables Made by
MacVeagh
ON THE WHOLESALE PRICE
The Duties are Calculated Twenty-one
Articles Of Domestic Origin--None
Of These, or Similar Ones, Are
Imported.

Washington. May 2s.-Secretary Of
/ The Treasury MacVeagh made public
yesterday the celebrated table Of com.
parative customs duties Of common
household articles published in the
Transcript Of May AZ. The comparisons
on the forty.six articles enumerated
are between the rates in the Dingley,
the Payne and the Aldrich tariff bills.
This list was compiled for the inspec.
tion Of President Taft, and was under
stood to indicate bis interest in tariff
revision as affecting the ultimate con-
sumer. In the list issued yesterday the
duties are calculated on the import or
wholesale price, instead OF the retail
price, as in the original list; but the
retail prices are quoted In both lists
The conclusions reached are. Of course,
exactly the same in both cases, as the
measure Of increase or decrease was not.
as the original despatch stated, the
amount Of duty paid, but the rate upon
which 1t was levied. The new table
shows that Of the forty-three articles
enumerated twenty -one were Of domes-
tic origin, and that no articles or such
character, of such value were imported.
These articles, on which the American
manufacturer thus Is seen absolutely
to control the domestic market, are
mems suits and overcoats, felt hats,
mems shoes, iron cook stoves, heating
stoves, beds with springs, cotton sheets,
bureaus, dining tables, chairs, proclaim
dinner sets, tin cups, iron knives and
forks, tin pals, ham and bacon, wheat
-four, go-carts. On only three Of these
articles, felt hats, mems shoes and cot.
ton sheets, are the duties reduced On
iron knives and forks they are increased
to forty-fye cents from a compound
duty ranging from thirty.three to
thiFtysi cents dozen.
On all items the Senate bill shows re-
auctions from the Payne bin on won
ems gloves and cotton sheets and In
creases in hams and bacon and cabbage.
The actual duties collected on articles
Of common wear and use are stated as
follows: The prices quoted being the
