CHINESE AUDIENCES.
Enter and Leave During Almost En-
 tire Time Speaker is Talking.

A disadvantage that public speak CTS are subjected to in China and Japan was referred to by Dr. James J. Rodger, who has just completed series of lectures at NOrthminister Presbyterian church. When the speaker completes his address he may have an audience entirely different from that which he had when he be- gan.
 Usually after he has been speaking ten minutes his hearers begin to leave and others come and take their places This keeps up all through the address and as a result at the finish none who were present at the start may be on hand. Another pc cularity he noted. and which seems paradOxiCal. is that often two China ; men who have been educated in this country may be seen talking in Eng fish on the street corner, unable to understand each other in the native language; because of coming from different provinces which speak dia- Iects so widely dissimilar that they are not understood beyond their bor- ders.-Columbus Dispatch.

WAS SHE DISAPPOINTED?
Hurlburt Wanted a Flower and Then
 Kiss, but Did Not Get It.

The little gilt clock on the mantel had chimed the half hour of II and Hurulburt was slowing away letters and papers in his coat pocket prepar- atorv to leaving He looked down at the girl as she sat picking to pieces one of the red geraniums in the bowl.
 It's a wonder you wouldn't give me one" he said experimentally.
 "A flower?" she asked, and pushed the bowl toward him. Take your choice"
 He laughed a little.
 T didn't ask to take my choice. l asked you to give me One.'
 For a moment she hesitated. then she rose and selected one.
 Do you want to wear it? I'll pin it on for you He rose from his chair and stood docilely with his hands in his pockets, quizzicaI smile dawning on his face as he gazed down at her assured. white fingers
 You are-practiced," he comment ed when the operation was completed.
 She stepped backward. Practical" she cried with an in dignation he felt must be assumed. And is that the thanks I get?'
 Hurlburt gave her a curious glance. His hands came suddenly from his pockets and placing a thick, white forefinger under her chin. he turned her face to the light. T have a mo- tion," he said slowly, looking down on her, "to kiss you goodnight"
 She never moved. Beneath her chin he could have felt the slightest tremOr but none came.
 T think, though she said coolly. you had better not go any further with the notion" Tn his varied experience with men and women Hurlburt's faculty of "siz- ing them up" had never failed him before. His hands dropped like a i dead weight to his sides, but he con tinued to stare unbelievingly into her eyes
 What makes you play with hot coals, then?" he demanded l Her eyelashes flickered

It's not so hot in Phoenix after all
 And F. w. Voorhees, of Dallas, Texas is or was here to say so. MT. Voor- hees, who has been one of the live business men of that very up to date city for the past five years actually came to Phoenix to cool off for the nOnce. He got an eyeful of the pleas ant valley sights, and on leaving last night took a number of names and ad- dresses for future business reference.
 At the board of trade yesterday he said
 Dallas has a strong commercial club and I thought it was the only place where genuine enthusiasm was on tap, but Phoenix has just as live a board of trade as any other place on the map 1 came here on my way to the coast, taking my summers sum- mer, you know, and when I arrived I thought it was So pleasant here I would stop off and see for myself some of the wonders I have been hearing about. The valley looks good to me. I have thG names of some owners of ranch and subdivision property and as soon as can, l will get in touch with them. For it's certain the values of land in this section cannot go down, and there is the same certainty that when the through railroad comes into Phoenix, the price of valley acreage will go sky high"
 That is a sample of the boost talk MT. Voorhees, offered. after an auto tour of the nearby valley. He believes all the country needs is some more farmers with brains and a little money,
 whose industry will build up a com munity here such as was never build cd before.
 He said. Just look at the city. one can see the busy prosperity sticking out It is apparent that building in the city is very active, and although I am told this is the duh season, it surely seems busy enough to be en- couraging. l am sorry I cannot stay long enough to see the dam, for I have heard a great deal about that wonder of engineering in the past eight years.
 Speaking of the present political fight in Texas, where the lines of pro hibition and local option are strongly drawn, aud the outcome clouded until after the votes are counted this morn ing, the visitor. took occasion to re- mark on ArizOnas constitution. He said it reminded him of the socialistic tendencies of one Roosevelt. but he be- lieved the rough edges of the supreme law woutl be worn off in the next few years of it's existence.
 Voorhees,. who is a photographic sharp when he is on the job, made an auto trip through the Phoenix Glen dale district, going over the sugar beet property where the sight of the sac charine roots in carloads was no little novelty He made a number of photos to show his back home friends, the cantalou2e fields and orchards.

THE sULLFROG IS A CANNIBAL
English Sparrows Sometimes Form
 Part of His Diet.

Did you ever know that the bull frog was carnivorous. or. in other words. a cannibal?" said Nick Gill bert. one of the operators at the electrical bureau. 'I never did until several years ago. when it was dem onstrated almost before my very eyes.
 T have been interested in fish cul ture for years and have made q study of their habits. So that l could study them at closer range, I built a big aquarium in my yard, one that held $50 gallons, and along with q fine collection of fish l stocked it with seven fine big bullfrogs.
 The sparroWs used to drink water from the edge of the aquarium and this day, while my wife was looking on. one of the frogs leaped up, caught the sparrow and took it be- meath the water I could hardly be- lieve that frog would attack and vanquish such a fighter as the Eng fish sparrow is known to be. so in the interest of science I emptied the aquarium and. sure enough, down in the bottom was the spar row. The frog had taken him down below, but either could not swallow him or else did not have the time.
 "Following that I began to miss some valuable Japanese fantails, and. after removing all the frogs but one, waited until I missed another fish. when I killed MT. Frog and found that he was the robber. Before that I believed the fish had been stolen by cats The bullfrog is aggressive and can take his own part any time e"-Phladelphia Record

IN sAsKATcHEwANs CAPITAL.
Regina, Canada, Has Become a Great
 Distributing Center.

From 1909 the pr3gres of Reaina has been rapid. During the four years 1901-1905 its population more than trebled; in 1910 the total had grown to 18,500; ard last year owing in part to newcomers and in part to the extension of city limits, the population had risen to twenty five thousand, or about ten times that of a decade earlier. Regi- mas development has been due to the fact that in recent years the city has never lacked a full complement of pub lie spirited citizens, who have worked to advance its interests as keenly a5 they work fo their own
 Doubtless the greatest factor in Re gina's p1 osperity has been facility in the matter of transportation. Since the Canadian Pacific many other railways have included Regina in their system, until today it has more than a dozen lines running out of the city. Regina is the distributing center for a district of more than sixty thousand square miles. According to the article unde~ notice, ''ln 1910, Regina firms sent out to the farmers Of the district no less than 25 million dollars worth of imple-

 GET TOGETHER
Senate Progressives Desert ing Their Democratic Al lies Join the Regulars in Pulling a Sugar Tariff Reduction Bill Through
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

WASHINGTON, July 27.-The re- publican sugar tariff bill, the first purely republican revision measure in the present congress, was adopted by the senate today. Deserting their all lies of the last two days, the repub- llcan progreSsiVeS, by an iron clad agreement with the regulars, succeed ed in passing a tariff reduction bill which they believe President Taft will sign.
 The sugar bill was a compromise between the Lodge plan, endorsed by the regular republicans and the Bris- tow bill beside which progressives lined up.
 It would cut the present sugar duty of $190 to $1.60-Would abolish the Dutch standard, under which prac- tically no refined sugar can be i'm ported, and would abolish the seven and half cent "refiners differen- tial," an additional duty on refined sugar, which it is claimed. has ac- crued directly to the profit of the re- liners.
 The republicans played "big poll tics' in the third and last days fight over tariff measures. The regulars came down from the $1S215 duty of the Lodge bill, while the prOgressives moved upward from the $1.521b rate in the original Bristow bill.
 The compromise which is only se ven and a half cents above the lowest figures named by the progressives. is considered a victory for Senator Bris- tow who has been the most active ad- Vocate of sugar tariff reduction on the republican side.
 It estimated that if the sugar tar if bill becomes effective it will re- duce the government customs receipts about s5.5O0O00, while it's saving in the retail sugar bill of the nation is estimated at S20,OO0,000

QUAKER IDEALS LIVE.

TO Control and Eradicate the Chest
nut Tree Bark Disease.

A Canadian newspaper is author
ity for the statement that the State
of Pennsylvania offered a fabulous
sum of money for the discovery of a
remedy for the Chestnut Blight.
While this State took the initial
move in combating this serious men
ace to our wealth of chestnut, no
special amount has been set aside as
reward" for the cure. NeYerthe-
less, it is true that extensive and in
teresting experiments are in progress
at the laboratory of the University
of Pennsylvania and also at several
nurseries and on private estates to
test medicinal treatment, fertiliza-
ton, cultivation, etc, with view OF
eradicating this highly destructive
fungous disease. The Bordeaux and
lime-sulphur solutions have revolu-
tionized fruit culture, and it is be-
lieved that perhaps the experiments
now being made by chemists and
pathologists may result in the dis
covery of an equally simple and in
expensive remedy for the chestnut
bark disease. The Pennsylvania
Chestnut Tree Blight Commission re-
ceived many suggestions, and some
OF them were at least original and
amusing, IL not practical.

Cape May, N. J.--By casting aside
all suggestions and proposed
changes in the constitution or laws

lance of radicalism. the Pennsylvania
Bar Association, at the concluding
sessions of its eighteenth annual
meeting Friday forswore any allegi-
ance to the Flinn-Roosevelt banner
which either the Colonel or his lieu
tenants hoped to receive from lead
ing members of the bench and bar
in the Keystone State.
The principal theories disposed of
in this manner were the initiative,
referendum and recall which were
placed on the shelf by the votes of
great majority of the lawyers. Ac-
ton on plan to indorse an excise
commission to deal with the liquor
licenses in the State was also indef-
nitely postponed.

characterized as the war call of a
