He was arrested and taken before

the court nurse and the nurse told tho

Says Mr.. ca!derhead.

Representative Calderhead does not
deny that the cost of living has ad,
vanced since the new tariff law went
into effect, but he is disposed to whine
because some of the increases have
been falsely attributed to the tariff
In letter to Mr.. Peter Emery of Law.
renee, the Cannon congressman says:
For instance, we did not touch the
WOODEN schedule except to reduce it in
a few places; yet the clothing deal.
ers have advanced the prices and say
1t was the tariff There was not the
slightest increase Of any item in the
wooden schedule"
Here is little truth with much eva
sion. The wooden men did not need
an Increase. They did not even ask
It, They had more protection than
they had ever used. They met in Chi.
cago months before the tariff session
began and reasoned thus: 1--WE can
advance prices without an increase
in the duties; hence we will not ask
for an increase, but will demand that
there he no reduction"
And this decision was acted upon
No increase was made, and no reduc
ton worth mentioning was allowed
Aldrich and Cannon and their follow
ers did precisely what the wooden men
asked them to do. And when these
benevolent wishes had been carried
out. the wooden trust proceeded tc
make higher prices for woolens of all
kinds, with the result that the cost
Of clothing necessarily advanced
In this instance there is no quarrel
with congress for what 1t did, but be-
cause Of what It failed to do. If con.
gress had reduced the tariff on wool.
ems as 1t should have been reduced
the wooden trust could not have ad
yanced prices. but would have had to
lower them to a reasonable basis to
meet foreign competition.

HAWK SWOoPS DOWN ON HAT
Carries OFF Chantecler Headgesr Of
Jersey Mas and Drops II Into
Passalc River.

Singac, n. J.-While on her way
downtown Miss Margaret McPhail had
an exciting experience with a huge
chicken hawk, which made off with
her chantecler hat.
When near the schoolhouse on
Pompton turnpike, she first noticed
the hawk lowering over her, but high
up in the air The bird, after circllng
about and swinging nearer and nearer
to her suddenly swooped down on
her head and seized the hat.
1t fiuttered and pulled at the head
gear, while Miss McPhail screamed.
Two girl friends ran to her assistance.
Miss Minnie HaTtdorf reached her
first, and she tried to drive off the
bird, but the hawk tapped his wings
wildly several times, striking Miss
Hartsdorf In the face and binding
her for the time being.
Miss McPhail was so frightened
that she sank to the ground. BY that
time the hatpins had worked loose and
the hawk flew away with the head
gear In its claws. When over the
Parsatc river the bird evidently dis
civered It had made a mistake and
dropped the hat. which fell into the
water.
At that moment Howard Jackson
of Montclair, a member of the Sun
nyside Canoe club, came around the
bend of the river in his canoe. Some
men called out to him to secure the
hat, which he did and returned It to
the owner.

. a 8 T Q RIA

1t is strange fact that there
are always some smart Alexis,
who no matter where they are
or where they go. they always
try to make it unpleasant for
others. If you are on the road,
you must poke and take their
dust or run horses with them. If
you are on the streets, you must
listen to their remarks; if at
church or in place of amuse-
menu, then you must put up
with their annoyance of their
brilliant thoughts delivered in a
stage whisper. In society their
wit and puns must be endured.
We imagine that our readers
have met all this genio and with
us will say they are about the
biggest nuisances as the Creator
ever clothed in flesh and endow-
ed with the spark called life.

WEST TO BE BATTLE-GROUND
Character Of Next House Of Repre-
sentatlVos VIII BE Determined
by That Section.

The middle vests vital influence
upon the character of the next house
of representatives is significant. The
real battle will be fought out in the
states where tariff reform sentiment
has become a mighty force.
For years the middle west has lis
tened TO tariff reform doctrine from
Bryan, La Toilette. Dolliver, Cum
minis, Beveridge and other progress
sives. Now the standpatters will un-
dertake to counteract the lessons
there learned.
Standpat orators have hopeless
task They cannot stem the tide. In
telligent Americans have made up
their minds on the tariff issue.
The new tariff has vastly increased
the cost of living. Tariff reform SEN
timent is as strong in the average
Illinois congressional district as in
any middle western state.
Chicago. through It's manufactur-
ers' associations and commercial
bodies, has spoken in no uncertain
tone for genuine tariff reform. 1t was
here also that the Republican party's
convention pledge to low tariff duties
was made.
For these reasons, If for no other,
1t is well that this commanding in
dustrial center should be the head
quarters for contending campaign
armies.-Chicago Journal.

The Arrest of Crippen.

The arrest of DR.. Hawley H.
CGppen at Falher Point, Quebec,
Sunday, July 81, on the charge of
wife murder, was triumph of JUS
tice and wireless biography. So
far as the evidence has been made
public is strongly indicative of DIR,
Crippen's guilt. The most unusual
feature of the case has been the
world wide publicity which follow
ed the pursuit of Crippen. 1t is a
situation the like of which was new
er known before, and it is one that
would have been impossible prior to
the Development of wireless teleg-
rapby All the world, the reading
world at least, knew ID a reasonable
certainty that DR.. Crippen and his
stenographer were on board the
steamer Montrose. There had been
daily me ssages from the captain CT
the vessle and from the Marconi OPP
orator. The Scotland yard inspect
or was at Father Point two days in
advance of the landing of the Mon
trose, with all arrangements made
for taking Crippep and Miss Leneve
into custody.
AS one of the press dispatches
points out, the case has established
precedent in police resources, "for
every important development in the
mystery has been while the suspects
and police informants were on the
high seas and out of touch with the
authorities except through the new
est method of communication "
The uDiqe situation has been pre-
sented wherein every move in the
ma.hunt was known to practically
everybody in the world except the
man who was beinghunted. Grim
inals no longer may feel themselves
safe once they are embarked on che
high seas. The wireless is keeping
the world posted on what is going
on at sea to such an extent that the
familiar phrase marine intelligence
has taken on a broader meaning.
