WASHINGTON. May with the

places in the Democratic tariff bill,
the sugar schedule.
Representative Underwood AT the

ioritv steadily ahead, disposing of the
last paragraph of the metal schedule
and blowing through the lumber and
wood schedules without allowing an
amendment. A fight to restore to the
autiable list shingles. which the bill
elaced on the free list, provoked a
wealth of oratory. particularly from

Careless of Women

From the Chicago Record Herald.
The story is told of Philadelphia
clergyman, who had often warned his
wife against the danger of carrying
her poclSetbook carelessly thrust into

large window, busy making some
calculations on a bit of paper. the end

out of her coat pocket Thinking to

she had been doing. She answered
that she had been at home all day

you weren't down town." asked he,
growing suspicious. No. she had mo-
been downtown.
Taking the pocketboolx out of his
pocket and laying it beside his plate
he asked whether that were not hers.

Berlin March 22-Not the least of the
effects of the Balkan war has been the
great increase in the numerical strength
of the German army, military step
which already is causing other countries
to strengthen their fighting forces, and
which the German people will have to
meet by liberal contributions from their
private purses.
Since Germany enlarged her army
France has returned to the three-year
period of enlistment for her soldiers, and
Russia, Austria Hungary and Italy are
preparing to increase their armies by
large numerical additions.
The Balkan allies have not only de-
molished Turkey in Europe but by dem
onstrating the existence of formidable
military power on the southern border
of Germany's ally, Austria Hungary,
they have compelled the German general
staff to rewrite all Moltke's plan for
great European war; to add 100000 men
to Germany's standing army to call upon
the people to contribute S250.000.000 for
national defense, and to increase the
yearly expenditure on account of the
army by $55,000000. 1t is notable that a
greater part of this money for defense Is
to be expended on the Russian and not
on the French frontier of Germany, TACT
which disproves the theory that Franco
German rivalry is responsible for the eX-
tensive military preparations OF the En-
pire.

Horse Bucked Himself to Death

From the Louisville Courier Journal.
Los Angeles.-Grey Eagle, the outlaw
is dead The notorious mouse-colored
buclSing horse that made his name his
toric for 10 years in the COW country killed
himself in a mad attempt to dislodge
Art Scheutz the champion n-year-old
rider of Cheyenne, SWyo. Scheutz lies in
the Receiving hospital with an injured
skull and dozen minor wounds
The final rage of this old outlaw was
spent in a death struggle occurring in
northern part of Los Angeles. Scheutz had
for several months heard of Grey Eagle.
The unmanageable horse was owned by
Bartlett Brothers. on a foothill ranch.
Scheutz decided he could ride the out
law.
For months Grey Eagle made a round
of the various motion-picture shows where
Wild West scenes were staged. None
of the cowboys assembled for the film
could handle the treacherous bucl<ing
animal. Grey Eagle had become notorious
for peculiar character of his buck,
rotary motion of his back when In mid
air that dislodged the most slSillful eques-
| trians. one after another of the cham
pions of the film squad of rough riders
had been tumbled over his arched back
and Bartlett Brothers accepted him as a
freak in their collection of horses.
Scheutz sent word to the Bartlett ranch
in the foothills that he would ride Grey
Eagle. The horse was brought TO lne
Scheutz home for the boy to mount. With
out preliminary he launched on the back
of the beast, and the contest started
across vacant lots, along cotheslines,
against the side of houses, under am
bushes that maddened but cunning
horse could select for a conquest.
Scheutz clung to his seat. Once Grey
Eagle dashed dow ma seven-foot ditch,
scrambled along it for few yards. then
climbed the preciptous bank and con-
tinued his wild pitching, with the boy
still in the saddle.
His energy was nearly gone when
Scheutz guided him toward the paved
streets. At the first touch of the asphalt
at Paramount and Blade streets Grey
Eagles feet slipped. He made last
desperate stand in defense of his title,
buclxed wildly and viciously. and then
started to run again. He continued Slip
ping across the street and launched into
the curbing, lying flat where his head
was crushed against the solid block OF
concrete Astride him was Scheutz, also
knocked unconscious, but still clingfng to
the bride rens.
Spectators took the boy to the hospital
where his wounds were dressed, while
Grey Eagle was taken. back to the Bart
lett ranch for honorable interment, even
though his title Of Grey Eagle had ceased
