FOR BWANA TUMBO

TF - -o' eminent faunal naturalist Mr. ThC1,Cre IiCCsevelt, is not moved to plunge headlong into the troubled sea of politics after he returns to his native and it is our impression that most fertile field of endeavor may be fitted to his restless energy in the antartc circle Not that we would have him go in search of the south pole-far be it from us to advance so sin ister suggestion-but that we would have him study the habits. manners of life and general characteristics of that strangest and most freak ish of all birds-or fish, or whatever it is-the penguin!
 Sir Edward Shackleton unfolds amazing and remarkable tales concerning that animal It is so human in many of its maneuvers that one suspects inevitably, if one accepts Sir Edward's s statements without question, that the penguin may not righteously be classed lower than the long sought "missing link whatever else may he said of it. In reference to one phase of this matter, the great antartic authority says:
 An emperor meeting an emperor, or men, or dogs, bows gravely till his beak is almost touch ing his breast. Keeping his head bowed, he makes long speech, in a muttering manner, short sounds following in groups of four or five Having finished the speech, the head is kept bowed few seconds for politeness' sake. Then 1t IS raised and he describes with his bill as Idl Se d clIcle as the pOlntS or ms neck Will al low. If you have not comprehended, he tries again. Meantime his followers are apt to get inpatient They are sure he is acting incor- rectly. Then another male will waddle forward, elbow the first aside and repeat the ceremony. ''
 When that intrepid French explorer, Paul du Chaillu, first related the startling story of his meeting with divers and sundry orang-outangs m certain dark and dismal sections of Africa, he was not only cheerfully and promptly de- nounced by the savants of the day as the rein carnaton of Ananias, but was even held by some to be unpardonaby crazy Nevertheless. the great man-ape did exist, and was afterward found to be much more wonderful and terrible thing than du Chaillu himself originally suspect ed. And it is the recollection of this that should give us pause with respect to Sir Edward and his astonishing narrative of spell-bindng pen guins.
 From what we have heard of the Eskimos of the arctic regions they have nothing in par ticular by way of advantage over these penpuins as intellectual propositions. There are no Eski- mos in the south polar regions. There is noth- ing that approaches man more nearly than Sir Edwards birds. Who knows but that the fame of the discoverer of the south pole may vet de-

pend for historical security upon the testimony of some half dozen penguins?
 On the other hand, Sir Edward Shackleton may be rank nature faker.' He may be a sort of faunal Dr. Cook, so to speak. Surely, this story of his is astoundingly unusual and re- cites unheard of things. And wlio is better quail flied to get at the exact facts in the case than the mighty Bwana Tumbo?
 Which is why we say hereinbefore and primarily that Mr. Roosevelt might lend a fur ther hand to science, after he concludes his pie turesque shooting up of Africa and tell us truly what is what in penguindom.

h The Halls of Congress
BY TAV.
Special Washington Correspondence.


 Increased cost of living is only one of the hardshps that has accompanied high tariff rates
 Inferior qualities have come hand in hand with increased prices, and there is a growing sentiment that any congressional investigation into the increased cost of living should be ac- companied by probe of the question: "Why are the particular goods receiving the greatest amount of protection constantly becoming poor CT in quality"
 That inferior qualities is true of many manu- factured goods is as well known to the consumer as the fact that the cost of living has increased. This is particularly true of all products of the steel trust, and also nearly all manufactured leather products, such as shoes, harness, etc., and also woolens and manufactured cotton goods
 Representative Gilbert N Haugen of Iowa, republican, has for two or three years been mak- ing an investigation of the decline in quality of steel products. ..s
 "As a result of having a monopoly, or what practically amounts to that, on steel products" " says Mir. Haugen, ''the steel trust is gradually cheapening its products Take barb wire for instance On my farm in Iowa there is piece of barb wire fence put up five years ago and another piece put up thirty years ago. The wire put up thirty years ago is in far better condi- tiOn than that put up five years ago.
 Hast summer while inspecting conditions on the Panama canal had another opportunity to note the difference in quality of American made steel goods and foreign-made steel goods. There were two shanties covered with corrugated steel roofing which was supposed to answer to the same specifications. One of the roofs was made bv French company and put in position some fifteen years ago. The other roof was made in America and put in place within the last four or five years. The French roof appeared to be as good as the day 1t was put on while the American-made roof was rusted through in places.' ...
 There was recently printed at the request of Senator La Toilette, as Senate Document No, 2lO a statement of the Carded Woolen Manu- lecturers association, which shows that as re- suit of the high Payne Aldrich- Shoot law rates. the people may expect inferior woolens:
 "Of course the American people will be clothed with something" reads this statement. Tn part, "even if the growing and importation of wool materials are stopped. If not wool, then with something else. Many of the carded wool en mills which at one time made all wool goods, h"ve. under the conditions brought about by the tariff, been turned over to the manufacture of what IS pOpularly known as cotton worsteds. , They are no longer carded woolen mills but are turning out vast quantities of goods made chief " of cotton with small percentage of worsted Figure shows fabric of this kind, composed Of l Is per cent of worsted and 9S 2-3 per cent of cotton"
