DEPEW IS
FOR TARIFF
Senator Denies That the
People were Promised
Revision Downward

Washington, May H.-In the sem
ate today Depew endorsed the phrase
of General Hancock, that the tariff
IS a local issue, ana claimed that
free trade caused the French revolu-
ton by throwing workmen out Of
employment and predicted the ulti-
mate triumph OF protection.
He denied the party pledge and
the expectation of the people for
general revision downward.
Speaking of the proposition to put
oil on the free list, he declared the
Standard is the beneficiary and con-
tended that both the income and in
heritance tax should be left TO the
states to impose. He opposed the
creation of a tariff commission, in
timating that 1t would cause a per-
petual tariff disturbance, which the
country most fears. He urged the
passage OF some law and that quick
ly and says that adjournment is the
thing which the country desires.

Manufa C lures Committee
Makes Report on Indus

New York, May 17--At the four
teenth annual convention OF the AS
sociation of Manufacturers this after
noon the report of the committee In
industrial education will make a sig
nificant reference to the relations OF
labor and capital and will predict in
dustrial freedom as youchsated by the
declaration OF independence and the
constitution as a matter OF but few
years. In support of its advocacy OF
industrial education the committee
says: "'2%
Were organized lavor formed and
conducted on rational and just lines
it would be a sin to exclude from 1t
the movement for the advancement OF
the human race, but as it now stands
to put it in charge of the movement
i'm the interest of industrial education
and trade training would be like put
ting a lamb in the care of a wolf.
TOO much stress cannot be laid on
the subject as organized labor's atti-
tude remains unchanged"
or the inadequacy of the present
system of education the report cites
contests against the courts.

TRUSTS THE
MINISTRY
Korea is Given the 0pportu-
nifty to Run Her Affairs
for a Time.

Seoul, May 17.-Obeying a sudden
summons from Prince Ito, Japanese
resident general in Korea, who is now
in Japan, Viscount Some, vice resi-
dent general, departed yesterday for
Toxic, and for the first time in two
years the affairs of the Korean gov
ernment are administered by the
cabinet without the supervision OF
japanese officers.
The fact that Korean affairs are
intrusted to Korean cabinet during
the absence of the japanese Officers
Is taken as evidence that Japan has
full confidence in the ministers and
is well satisfied that the country has
been tranquillized. The cabinet will
be in some measure guided by the
advice of X Nabeshima, director G.

while the Japanese Officers are away
There is reason to believe that the
recall OF Viscount Some indicates
that the resignation of Prince ITO il

lieyed that Viscount Some has alread,

ton

Hospital
At about the same time Thomas
Reese, aged fifty-fiye years, was
struck by a Lake Shore train. Bott
legs were cut off and he died n few
hours later.

How a cOnIurer Learns His Trade.

How conIurer Learns His Trade.
Where does the conjurer learn his
work, and who inyents his tricks for
him?
The first question is easy; the sec
ond difiicult. The coniurep learns
from books and from papers produced
specially for conjurers. There are
three conjurers' papers published In
America and three in England, and 1t
IL generally understood that English
conjurers are always hungry for the
American papers and the American
conjurers for the English. AS to the
books on oonjuring, they are produced
by the score, but the majority of them
are never heard Of by anyone but con-
jurers.
But the conjurer who always per-
forms old tricks, just as they are de-
scribed in books, will never acquire
very great reputation from his RE
vals.. 1t is generally conceded, how
ever, that there are certain tricks
some card tricks and few others
ed; but with some OF these exceptions
the Christmas conjurer's program
must be new each year, and, II poss-
ible, his own.
A conjurer who sits down to think
out new trick has several courses
open TO him. He can take an old
trick, and improve 1t in such way
that 1t is comparatively a new trick;
or he may try and invent trick to
be performed with articles that have
never been used in a trick before; or
he may employ articles that are the
stock-in-trade Of evry cOnjurer and
use them in a different way. 1t il
often more difficult TO improve an old
trick than to think Of new one.
The finest tricks OF all are those in
which new objects are used, and In
which the secrets are new also. The
number of such tricks Is comparative
ly small and In most cases the invent
or receives no thanks and no recon-
pense for his trouble. He satisfies his
conjurer's conscience when he pro-
duces new tricks, but he knows that
conjurers cannot deceive donjurers.
and that in all probability his IDEAS
will be copied.
Many of the Oldest tricks are still
very popular The Oldest book ON
conjuring in existence, published In
1884, contains descriptions Of some
of the tricks performed this season;
but, naturally the methods of modern
conjurers are far more ingenious than
those OF their ancestors.

TOAST.

Here's to womanl For her we toll
For her build structures to the skies
/ or her we burn the midnight oil
And strive at last to win life's prize
Without her who would care to chase
The will o wisp of fame, or seek
The plaudits of the human race,
Or who would climb the mountain
peak?
Here's to womanl For her we hate,
For her we envy and despise:
For her we brave the sternest fate;
For her speak truths and often lies
For her we clothe ourselves. At times
Go poorly clad for her sweet sake
Perform good deeds and sometimes
crimes,
For her we mend our ways or
break.
Here's to woman! the source of all
Dur hopes and fears, our every plan
For her we rise, for her we fall,
1t is the woman makes the man,
And so l raise my glass tonight
And unto woman this toast give:
1t is for her we daily fight;
1t is for her we strive to live.

ANOTHER
IOWA IDEA
Expert Now Says the People
Must Quit Kissing to
Stop tuberculosis

Des MoInes, Ia, May 17.-The
balmy breeze, the whispering trees,
fair Lunas soft rays, all invite sweet
hearts to go "spooning." So, Of
course, just at this time, right at the
beginning of the most romantic sea-
son, when the little birds are cooling
and all nature is wooing, along
comes A. L. Kepford, the state ex-
pert, and lecturer on tuberculosis.
lie officially declares there must
be no more kissing in Iowa. Mr..
Kepford. who is wise old scientist
does not denounce kissing in so
many words. He says cautiously that
he and Iowa are only taking up and
carrying on the old crusade against
the elusive bacillus OF tuberculosis.
Mr.. Kepford asserts that this bacil-
lus is the real kissing bug" He is
about to send to every mother In
Iowa a card inscribed
do NOT KISS THE BABY"
Mamma will hang this warning
around babys neck or on babys go
cart.
First of all we will save the
babies" says Mr.. Keptford. Then
plainly an awful threat Is hidden in
the word then" After the babies
are saved the sign will be hung
around the neck Of every glgglng
schoolgirl of six or seven. They
will be forbidden TO kiss even each
| other.
Then" the same sign will be
blazoned on the par benches where
swains are accustomed 10 murmur
and "then"-
'Tis dark and rather darker. He
on her porch, awaits the only girl IN
the world. He has found courage Il
propose. He hears the rustic OF hel
hilmy skirts; afraid 20 raise his eye'
he knows, for love re1Is him, she II
at his side, smiling down on him
He gets on his fet stretches out TIVE
arms and breathes fondly. Dear
est one"
Then" in the dusk, he sees-Oh
horrors-he sees around her neck

OF THE BATTLE HYMN

That marvellous lyric, the Battle
Hymn of the Republic, was the eman-
alton of a great brain and the Lima
Republican very thoughtfully suggests
that the author stands as high in
human estimation as any woman now
living. Says that journal:
Julia Ward Howe, who will be
80 years old the latter part OF this
month, explained not long ago to a
writer in Putnam's Magazine why she
is so sincere an optimist, finding that
the deeper she drinks of the cup of
life the sweeter it grows-the sugar
all at the bottom"
" You see," she explained, my
husband was a very great man; AMI
| had very dear chilren; and | have
delightful grandchildren; and have
two grandchildren-and 1 am
very fond of little children"
1T should be added, to make the
story complete, that DR.. Howes wife
was very great woman, and that
Julia Ward Howe's children had a
wonderful mother Also, that her chill
dren's children rise up and call her
blessed No woman now living ia
more worthy of respect and admira-
tion than the author of The Battle
Hymn of the Republic" who for full
seventy years has been hating bon
dage in all its forms and fighting for
human liberty"

said finally.
Dick was allowed to stay. His sick

and that was a great deal.
Soon afterward he secured work as
a proofreader. With his first weeks

that money could not pay Marget.
