THEATRE HAT TABooED.

A millinery buyer for New York

Europe, says that the police of Berlin
have made the theatre hat lost art.

1t punishable act to wear hat in

WHERE TORTOISE SHELL COMES
FROM.

The finest Of tortoise shell is said
to be that which comes from the In
dian archipelago, although much of
that obtained on the Florida coast is
of the very best quality. says the
Scientific American. There are three
rows of plates on the back of the an
imal called blades" by the fisher
men. In the central row are five
plates, and in each of the others four
plates, the latter containing the best
material. Besides these. there are
twenty-five small plates around the
edges of the shell, known as feet" or
moses" The biggest turtle does not
furnish more than sixteen pounds Of
shell. Formerly the undershell was
discarded as worthless, but now 1t Is
much esteemed for it's delicacy of
coloring. Sometimes imitation or tor.
toise shell is made of the horns OF
cows.

BY the use OF a strong glass

by the use OF strong grass We
have at last found one paragraph in
the columns Of our neighbor that we
think should receive passing com.
ment. II is the following: viii the
Republican kindly point out where Mr..
Smart has been more charitable to
those who need charity than has Mr..
Hayball?" Well, we can do this in
two ways, first by pointing out those
who need charity and have received
it at his hands, and second those who
apparently need charity, judging from
the howl they are making, and have
not received 1t. AS to the first: For
years some hundreds of our sons,
worthy representatives of the pion-
GERS of this valley, were herded like
so many sheep in dingy corner in
the basement of one of the buildings
of the A. c. U. These boys appealed
for help to the state, the parent of
the school, but were give to under
stand that il was impossible for the
state TO come to their aid, and that
Il would be necessary to solicit aid
from individual sources. The field
was looked over. Mr.. Lon j. Haddock
representing the student body de-
cided that il would be a good thing
to put the matter up TO men OF
wealth, such as Thomas Smart and
Henry G. Hayball. His labors were not
in vain for Mr. Smart generously, and
without hesitation, put his hand into
his pocket and handed out the neat
sum of ten thousand dollars. Now II
is universally conceded that this act
on the part of Thomas Smart assured
| the gymnasium now in course of cree
| ton. Is not this case then where
charity was needed where II was CIV
en- to the blessing Of every boy and CIR
In the school now and for generations
to come? And Is there case in oui
midst where IL was most needed, and
where IL was more graciously and ben
officially to all OF us bestowed? CAN
AS MUCH BE SAID FOR MR.. HAY
BALL? As to the second 1t is perhaps
easier to relate the few cases tina
have not been the beneficiaries o
his generosity than the multitudei
who have, as for instance the two o.

in this respect. and so stands discred

BILE that Congress might obtain the

PEELED the use; and with respect to n
number Of criticisms that have been
made against the amendment, it is
clear that the law for the tax could
avoid the force of those criticisms if
Congress saw fit to so frame the law.
1t is a sure thing that the power TO
levy an income tax must necessarily
vest in the general government. Such
tax may also be levied by the States.
and there need be no conflict between
the two. But whether Congress will
levy such tax, even after the amend
ment is ratified. will be matter for
future consideration. In the meantime,
it is gratifying to note that the needed
power to levy the income tax is so near
being conferred upon Congress.

INCOME TAX PROGRESS,

An Eastern contemporary, which is

facts, is authority for the statement
that thirty-one States have ratified the
constitutional amendment allowing the
levying of an income tax by Congress

cannot be much doubt. Utah should

ratification by the platform on which

ANNEXATION HOSTILITY.

1t will be remembered that the Hon.
Champ Clark, now Speaker of the
House, made break when he first
spoke on the reciprocity agreement,
by saying that it was the first step
towards the annexation of Canada. Mr.
CLARK, however, has always been in
favor Of ratifying that agreement.
Not so, however, others who have
taken up that same cry. The oppo.
nents of the reciprocity agreement on
the Canadian side are all out in full
cry against the agreement, and their
stock argument is that through it Can.
ada will be absorbed by the United
States. The opponents of the reciproc.
ity agreement on this side of the line
are rapidly falling into line with the
Canadian opposition TO it, and are loud
ly insisting that ratification means an
nexation. Representative George w.
Prince of Illinois. Republican who
opposes the agreement, dwclt on what
he held to be the danger OF reciprocity
with Canada, and in pursuance OF his
opposition TO the agreement, gave an
guisbed voice TO the Canadian lament
that, if this agreement were ratified,
the process of swallowing Canada by
the United States would Immediately
begin.
Whatever might be supposed to be
the effect of such cry as that III
Canada, it seems curious indeed to find
that American PUBLIC men arc lend.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1911-04-30

ing themselves to this sort of non
sense. IT has been distinctly pointed
out by President Taft and by other
friends of reciprocity, that there is
nothing involved in this proposition
in the way of the annexation of Can
ada; nothing OF that kind has any
place in this agreement at all. This
reinsurance was given for the settle
ment Of the Canadian fearsomeness
which seemed TO go wild on the idea
that Canada would lose her identity if
this sort of reciprocity were had. But
from annexation? What danger does
Representative Prince see in it TO the
United States7 And why should bug
bear like this be supposed TO have
any terrors for the American mind ?
IL is a curious thing indeed that an
appeal like this should be made TO
Americans, 4 good many Canadians
are agitated and fearful about it, but
what sentiment is there on this side
of the line that would revolt or be
terrorized at the idea of anuexing Can
ada to the United States? That whole
plea from this side of the line Is
perfectly absurd. The opponents of
ratification will need to get up some
better sort of scare than this in
order to impress the American public,

ness of mind
