Cupid in Stripes.

Capt Michael White has another Of his
delightful romances situated in India in
our next Sunday Magazine. The title
is 'Her Tiger" It was a real tiger, and,
strangely, it was this very man eater
that brought the two loving hearts to-
gether. What makes these stories SO
rea alistic is, the fact that, in addition to
having had a fine education and being a
natural author, Capt. White was born
in India and later was captain of the Sd
Battalion, Scottish Rifles, there; so he
has a close knowledge Of Indian condl-
tions. down to the minutest detail.

Business Men Aroused.

''But during the past week or so the
light has been breaking upon them. and
the business men and manufacturers are
becoming thoroughly aroused as they
realize the disastrous character of the
legislation proposed by the democrats.
They have taken the campaign largely
in their own hands and are organizing
Prosperity Leagues. I venture to predict
that these organiza tons will have men,
bership of a million voters within two
weeks, and grow stronger every day un-
til election. It's membership will not be
confined to business men, as all thinking
workingmen realize that closed shops af-
feet them first, and they have no desire
fori the repetition of the Wilson bill panic.
Furthermore. the farmers are fully aware
that idle mills and labor unemployed
means very little market for the produce
of their farms.

ARGUES FOR ROSE GARDEN
Robert Pyle Suggests One On
or Near the Mall,
This City.
A rose garden should be established

A rose garden should be established
somewhere on or near the Mall between
the Capitol, the Monument and the White
House, according to Robert Pyle, who
spoke at a meeting held under the
auspices of the Washington Florists
Club at Business High School last even
Ing. Mr.. Pyle told about the grand rose
gardens which are scattered throughout
Europe, and said the people of the coun-
tries there took great interest in the
gardens and the rose shows, many Of
which were held each season. He thought
a similar interest should be developed
here.
Mr. Pyle showed a large number of
stereopticon views in connection with his
lecture. These pictures included both
the farms of the professional rose grow
ers and numerous rose gardens. Thou
sands of rose plants Of every description
were to be seen.
Mr.. Pyle spoke Of the work done by the
late William Robertson Smith, for many
years superintendent of the National Bo-
tanic Garden, in rose culture. He declared
Mr.. Smith was one of the worlds fore
most florists and hortfculturiSts and that
his death had been felt in every land.
He spoke Of the proposed memorial to
Mr. Smith and declared that florists and
horticulturists everywhere stood ready to
aid in its erection. He showed a life-siZe
picture of the famous gardener.

Tree roses, climbing roses arched across

form and prize-winning varieties all re-
ceived attention. Most Of the gardens
were arranged in formal" fashion, and
some Of them We're made into amphi-
theaters, surrounded by statues and re-
plete with colonnades, fashioned largely
after early Greece.
The climate of Europe is especially
adapted to the growing Of roses, accord
ing to Mr.. Pyle. He could see no reason
why Washington could not grow beauti-
full roses equally well, except, perhaps, a
few varieties.
A large audience attended the lecture
A general invitation had been issued to
the florists of Washington and their
friends, and also to the teachers Of the

President Taft's Election.

Taft will be elected and the next
House will be in the control Of the re-
publican party, largely through the or
ganiZation of the Prosperity League"
said Judge Cole, in discussing the move
ment.
II make this prediction because the ef-
fects of the tariff bills passed by the
democrats at last session are now being
brought home to American manufacturers
business men and laboring men. Up to
ten days ago the manufacturers and busi-
ness men have been SO busily occupied
in taking care of their orders that they
paid no attention to the legislation which
the democratic House attempted to enact
1t may sound strange, but nevertheless
it is true, that the manufacturers and
business men Of this country are just
being Informed Of the character of the
tariff bills that were rushed through
Congress at the last session. They were
given no hearings by the democratic ways
and means committee of the House, and
very little publicity was given the pro-
ceedings of the House during the con-
sideration of the tariff bills AS a result
people who were most vitality 1r terested
have been in the dark as to what was

goods manufactured in Bridgeport
with those in the democratic tariff bills
passed at last session, but vetoed by
President Taft. The manufacturers of
Bridgeport, it is stated, would not be-
believe that the reductions were so
sweeping until they examined the
schedules. But when they did they
began to organize and the Prosperity
League was the result. BY the same
method Mr.. Hill had soon stirred up an
uprising in his whole district Pros

LEAGUE FOR VOTERS
New Organization Expects to
Have Million Members.
Is TO FIGHT FOR Mr.. TAFT
May Revive Hanna Campaign Meth.
DDS of 1896 Regarding
the Tariff,

Within two weeks an organization
known as the Prosperity League will
be the center. Of interest in the presi-
Dental campaign, according to the
statements of Judge Ralph D. Cole,
former member of Congress from Ohio,
who stopped of in Washington on his
way to New York, where he will ac-
company Job Hedges. the republican
nominee for governor. on an upstate
speaking tour. By that time, Judge
Cole asserts, the Prosperity League
will have membership of a million
voters. and rapidly increase In strength
until November. when the organiza-
tion, he declares. will be largely re-
sponsible for the election of Taft and
a republican House.
The central idea of the Prosperity
League will be the tariff. There are
indications that the promoters of the
league will revive the Hanna campaign
methods OF 1895. Already a strong or
ganization has been effected in many
of the manufacturing towns Of Con-
necticut, and the movement is quietly
but rapidly spreading throughout New
England. 1t has taken root in Ohio,
a business mems organization having
been launched in Cincinnati.
