COMMISSION WAS TRIMMED.
Congress Stole March on President, 1t Is
Discovered

Washington. Aug. 2S.-President Taft's
economy commission, it was discovered
yesterday was ruthlessly trimmed by
the Democratic House and by the Sen
ate in the sundry civil appropriation
and the legislative appropriation bills.
In addition to limiting the powers of
the commission to the matter of trans
acting the public business of the goy-
eminent only in the several active de-
partments," the sundry civil bill re-
dueed the salaries of its members.
The chairman now gets $4,000 year,
while the five other members receive
$4,000 each.
The new law provides that not more
than three persons may be paid not
more than $4,000 per annum and cuts
to $4,000 the amount with which to
prosecute the work.
In the legislative bill a paragraph
slipped in at the last moment, pro-
vides that "the regular annual esti-
mates of appropriations and expenses
of the government shall be prepared
and submitted to Congress by those
charged with the duty of such prepara-
ton and submission, only in the form
and at the time required by law ar1
in no other form and at no other time"
The commission has been in favor of
the English budget" sytem. President
Taft has endorsed the commission and
the House quietly seized the opportunity
of blocking the commission from fur
Their interference with its work in ap-
preparations. The innocent paragraphs
excited no comment and aroused no sus
pieion in the Senate. 1t was not until
yesterday that the real significance of
the legislation cropped out.

Chicago, Aug. %. The board of d.

The letter TO Parker to which Coll
onel Roosevelt has made reference sew
eral times recently, was in reply to Par
ker's charge that Roosevelt's campaign
fund had been enriched by contribll-
tion of 100000 from the Standard Oil

campaign of 1904, at the time when

Motor Mans,

In countries like France, where roads are good and cross roads nu- merous, travellers by automobile have frequent occasion to consult road maps, because they go so fast and change direction so often that topo- graphical information is, for them, a continual necessity.
 To meet this there has been invent ed an automatic chart that unrolls in step with the advance of the carriage, so that the chauffeur has always be- fore him a map of the route he is to pursue. When the road is about to turn sharply an electric bell gives warning 300 meters in advance. An other attachment to the chart regis ters the distance traversed. The whole apparatus is moved by gearing connected with the wheels of the au- tomobile.

FINE BLADES OF DAMASCUS
Swords Made In the Oriental City Were Most Wonderfully Temp
 cred and Adorned.

Fancy frills and ornamentation were not thought of in the hurried forging of weapons called into need by the breaking out of the Civil War How plain the usual cavalry sabre was, for instance. is we'll shown by comparison with the lavishly ornamented weapons turned out by the oriental sword makers. The Turkish sword is a beau tiful piece of work, the blade, dam ascened" with inlaid wires of gold, be- ing of astonishing elasticity. Each quarter inch of surface of the gilt scabbard, handle and hilt is crowded with engraved designs.
 From the city of Damascus, cele- brated for more than thousand years for the skill of its swordmakers, the Crusaders took to Europe the art of "damascening" ng"-a tissue of dark lines on light ground, or the reverse-and the inlaying of gold on the steel itself In the genuine Damascus blade of the best period the figure, that is, the in- tricate twists made in the steel while hot under the hammer of the sword smith, is not, as some think, a matter of surface. It extends through the blade, and hence is not removed by a thousand polishings. These beautiful figures on the genuine blades are al most identical with the best so-called Damascus gun barrels of today.

MUSIC LESSONS OFTEN LOST
Writer Thinks Children Should Have Easier Tasks and Shorter Hours
 of Practice.

The musical education of the child, we must remember, is, in nine cases out of ten, plus quantity-something in addition to an already complete course of study laid out by that ex- acting and often heartless person known as the educator. It invades the play hour, makes it by no means small exactions upon the already tired brain, and often proves more destruc- tive of the central gray matter and more wearing to the nerves than all the rest of the child's curriculum put together. Think of the poor tortured little spine and the dangling legs on the high piano stool for an hour at stretch! What nervous strain and worriment, to drop note here and there, as grandma drops a stitch, and be obliged to go back again and again to struggle with the passage until time, lingering, reading and all the technique of execution are pronounced satisfactory!
 With less exacting music and short CT hours of practice, have no doubt that quite as much progress would be made by most children in the long run. Nothing is gained by eXhausting nervous energy and wearing out both brain and body. Unless a child has extraordinary aptitude and an inalien- able love for music, "too much of a good thing" will simply disgust him or her with the entire study.
