of the alleys under the assessment sys-
tenn was recommended to the Commits

HERE'S UNCLE JOE'S LATEST!
Of Universe Is in Hustle

NncIe Joe Cannon got of new aphor-
ism yesterday. The salvation OF the
universe is in the hustle OF the unit" he
declared, as he cooked the big black
cigar at an acuter angle and festooned
the chandelier in wreaths OF tobacco
smoke. He was moved to the remark by
the pertinacity, persistency. insistency
and otherwise energy Of a group Of COM
mercial men from the states bordering
on Canada who want improved relations
with Canada.
They included j. ]. Hudson Of Detroit.
william G. Bruce. secretary OF the
Milwaukee Manufacturers Association:
George E. Pomeroy of Toledo. silas b.
Adams Of Portland, Me-. and Charles Il.
Sawyer, secretary of the Detroit Cham
ber of Commerce. They represented a
commercial conference which met At De-
troit last week, and came to see the
House and Senate leaders and the Presi-
dent.
They want maximum aud minimum
tariff, with a lower minimum than is con-
templated in the Senate bill, and any
other little favor in tarfh legislation
which will make for better trade rela-
tons between Canada and the United
States.
The committee called on the President
and presented the resolutions adopted by
the conference. Briefly, the resolutions
call for the conclusion of reciprocal
trade agreement win 1anada ,ne
earliest practical moment: proper recip-
rocal maximum and minimum provision
in the tariff bill. and the creation OF
tariff board or commission. The fresi-
dent said that there was considerable
sentiment In Congress for tariff board
under the Treasury or some department.
but he did not know what would be done
about Il.

sEARcHLIaHT DAMAGE PAID.
Weather Broke Army Lens Borrowed
by Inaugural Committee.

Edward J. Steliwagen, chairman of the
Taft and Sherman inaugural committee,
has just paid the War Department the
sum of $3.50 on account of repairs to a
large searchlight borrowed from that de-
partment for use In connection with the
inaugural ceremonies and damaged by
the blizzard. The searchlight came from
the artillery post OF Fort Washington
and was installed on the dome Of the
United States Capitol. 1t was exposed
to the snow and cold wind of March !.
with the result that the lens cracked
when the light was turned on.
Acting Secretary Oliver informed the
inaugural committee that 1t cost exactly
$3.50 to repair the damage sustained by
the searchlight. and Chairman Stellwagen
at once sent a check to cover the full
amount 1t was acknowledged on all
sides to have been an unavoidable acci-
dent, due to the inclemency of the
weather. and. also. that the bill was a
perfectly just claim against the inaugural
committee, which had obligated itself to
return the light in good condition.

and with his feet supports plank on

his hands and arms he supports the two

can grasp the biggest Percheron draft
horse that lives around the neck and
throw it.
These giants were discovered by q for
eign agent OF the circus while touring
Germany i'm search of+noyelties last win

lea.
Another sensational number Is the dou-
BILE automobile somersauit. performed by
a mere girl. This act reaches the limit
in daring. 1t is the most dangerous feat
its kind ever seen.
The greatest achievement of all the AMI
NAL trainers that ever lived is that of
the Schumann performing horses. They
were trained by the wizard Albert Schu-
mann. and. strictly speaking, IL is the
first and only real horse act ever seen I'm
