In the 40 minutes debate on the rule
which was finally adopted by unani

did not entirely satisfy him, and there
never had been a tariff bill that salts
fed everybody. 1t had, however, been
approved by the Republican majority
OF the house and senate, and by the
president
Champ Clark, the Democratic lead
er. said that the object sought by
the rule, which was TO lower the ra,es
on leather boots, shoes and harness,
was commendable. but that these al
ticles really ought to be ON the free
list.
John Callan O'Loughlin, in a dis
patch To the Chicago Tribune, strong
Republican newspaper, says: At no
point OF the tariff revision is there
found evidence of a serious purpose
to reduce duties III the interest OF low
er prices. Many of the duties which
prevented importations have been re-
duced but there is little likelihood that
importations sufficient to affect home
prices will result. There is every rea-
son to believe that the trade will take
advantage of the increase in the du
ties on cottons to advance prices
These increases bear especially upon
the poorer classes. There was no
justification for the advance in the
rates on the cheaper grades OF cotton
hosiery. They were made for the ben.
eft OF Pennsylvania factories. The

nUTRAM and strolled out at three P. NJ in differ

and to kill meat for the camp, of which had had
little for many days while in the Maggori- Oyani
country.
Tiny thirty-pound onbi were thick almost as the
grasshoppers and about hard to shoot. Usually
you never them until they out of the grass
at your feet and lodged away at express speed with
low bent heads all hidden from your sight in the
grass rising occasionally in mighty leaps six or eight
feet above the grasstops for glance at whatever
might be going around them. Occasionally you
had glimpse Of two little slender pair of
four-inch straight outstanding horns and caught
through the grassops the gleam of great liquid eyes
fixed upon YOU in wondering inquiry, and then a
graceful fourteen-carat golden-yellow body went
alternately gliding and rocketing past you. They
take shooting, do these little orbi, for while
times you get standing shot at from seventy
five to hundred and fifty yards usually all you

position of the body.
While saw no roam eland that was rather a ban

fine waterbuck with twenty-six- inch horns, three
Cokes hartebeest bulls, and two oribi each killed
with single shot except the big hundred pound
waterbuck, which needed second to down him.
