M'cUMBER SEES TAFT.

Washington, Aug. 4.-Senator
McCumber Of North Dakota visit
ed the White House today and had
long conference with the pres
ident. He urged Mr.. Taft to agree
to have the bill recommitted. To
this the president would not agree,
insisting that IL the bill went back
to conference IL would result in a
failure. If the bill failed, the pres
ident believed, the party would
meet defeat at the polls in 1910.
Mr.. McCumber's argument in
favor of recommittal was to the
effect that the bin was q good one
for the manufacturing sections of
the east. but that 1t was unfair to
the west
Senator McCumber told the
president that the reductions in
rates had been unevenly distribut-
ed, the east faring better than the
west. Senator Mccumber then re-
turned to the senate and delivered
a mournful speech, in which he
announced that he would vote for
the conference report.

 ''The only thing we have to com plain of is that the managers have in- sisted on our playing The Counsel for the Defense all the time. We are. I think, the only couple in the field who have played the same dramatic act for so long a continuous time.
 We have never, in all the twelve years we have been playing 1t. found one instance wherein the act was a failure, and we nave played 1t from Maine to California. and from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico.'

The childs slightest fault or the maiden's-each trifiing lapse into misbehavior-was attributed to innate 6epravity inherited from the mother. The aunt predicted nothing but disgrace tor the niece. That is to say, the woman negatively sug- gested wickedness to the girl; and so Adelaide ran away from boarding school and for fortnight was mem- Der of dramatic stock company. It was an escapade without deviltry.
 That happened before the time of the play. When we first see her. she Is bent on becoming an actress as q way to get away from her aunt-bossed home. The moonlit scene. already de- scribed.

 An unidentified parent serving as protective guardian of an unsuspecttng daughter is sure to be winsome. espe- cially if he speaks English with for eign accent.

George and Adelaide are doing right well in this very singular play. The Harvest Moon" IS far away from being Angus tus Thomas's strongest play; but think 1t is the most intellectual.
