The other day ]. r. Harris OF Boul.
der, Colo, tried to win a $40 wager BY
deyourng a dinner that had been pre-.
pared for family OF twelve. He is
reported to have attacked at table a
hrteen'pound turkey with oyster dress.
Ing, three loaves OF bread, six sweet
potatoes, two punches OF celery, four
dishes OF cranberry sauce, one glass
or mint jelly. six bananas with cream
one pound OF butter, one order of
squash, two mince pies and two dishes
OF plum pudding with brandy sauce and
six cups Of coffee. He had reached the
mince pie stage when he fell to the
floor unconscious.
There are eating clubs in New York
where the champion feeders are those
who can put away beefsteak by the
pound. One man at a chowder outing
last summer Is said to have eaten 80
ears Of corn. At another outing 200
clans was the record OF heavy eater

tity of beer with the clans, and II Is
further stated that he was not seen In
his haunts again for two weeks.
An East side record Is that OF eating
peck of English walnuts in the space
OF an hour. Some folks say this is not
SO hard to do. while others ask the
scoifer to try It and not use a bit of
salt In the eating. which, 1t seems, was
one of-the conditions OF the record.

seem that the prize should have gone

Several years ago a man In New
York made wager that he could eat
one quail day for a month. The re.
suit seems to be somewhat in doubt.
There are those who say 1t was done
all right, while others contend that

new TARIFF RESULTS
Cannot Be Considered Other
Than Disappointing.
question Whether Income Tax win
counterbaianee the Enormous
Shortage Shown In the Cue
toms Receipts.

The defenders Of the Wilson. Under
wood tariff are strenuously standing
on criticism OF that measure by pro.
testing that 1t must be given time !;
that 1t has not yet gotten fairly into
performance. 1t may not be unpar-
donabie. however, to make few
notation marks in the statistical re.
suits, under the new tariff, % these
results are given out from the vari-
GUS departments and bureaus.
A statement just given out from the
treasury department shows that the
customs receipts for January, 1914,
were nearly $6.000,0OO below the re-.
ceipts for January, 1918. The state.
ment also shows that in January Of
last year the treasury took in $1,000.
ooo more than 1t paid out, whereas, for
last month more than $70O0,000 was
paid out In excess Of receipts. A lit.
tie reflection upon the significance Of
these figures will lead to guess about
what the size Of the prospective treas.
ury deficit of the fiscal year ending is
going to be. The income tax is a re-
source yet in the reckoning. but It is
matter OF theory as to whether the
revenue from this source will counter.
balance the developing shortage in
the customs receipts.
As to what the new tariff was to
do, but hasn't done-it was to bring
down the high cost OF living. The
anxious ultimate consumer Is yet
waiting for this to happen. 1t was to
stimulate foreign trade. There was a
marked decline during the last three
months of 1913 both in imports and ex.
ports, as compared with the last three
months OF 1912. 1t was to make bus.

awake o nights by the increased roar
OF the wheels Of industry?

Republicans Strong In California.

The registration Of voters in Califor.
MIA Is exciting great interest, largely
because of the fact that the unexpect.
ed has happened. California has been
regarded very justly as a Progressive
stronghold. Its governor, Johnson, was
the candidate for vice-president on
the Progressive national ticket, and
he Is now a candidate for a second
term as governor. He helped undoubt-
edly to carry the state for his partJ
last year, when It secured all but two
or the thirteen electoral votes. At the
same time the Republican party was
practically forced out Of the field and
in the contest that followed the Demo
Gratis won the two electoral votes that
did not go to Roosevelt and Johnson.
But the registration for the first
month OF this year shows that the Re-
publicans are now very much stronger
than either the Democrats or the Pro-
gressives. The figures up to February
! are: Republicans, 1891; Democrats,
35,5l2; Progressives, 4S,688.
These returns are partial only in the
counties from which reports have been
received and are for only q counties
out of total Of So. But Los Angeles,
San Francisco. Alameda Oakland.
Sacramento and San Diego are includ.
ed. The Democrats show no very
great strength anywhere. The Pro
gressives are doing their best in Sac
ramento and Alameda. Tho Republi.
cans are strong everywhere. In Los
Angeles the figures are: Republicans,
27.l6S; Democrats, 12.446; Progress
sives, 1876 In San Francisco: Re-
publicans. 1917; Democrats, 2,498;
Progressives, 2,968. In San Diego: Re.
publicans. 9,049; Democrats. 2,67S;
Progressives. l,414. In Alameda the
Democrats are almost a negligible
third, while the Progressives regis
tered 1896 and the Republicans 49,
6S5 votes.
Since the total registration may ex.
coed million the end Is a long way
on, but naturally the Republicans are
much elated by the returns so far.

MARY'S VALENTINE
BY HENRY DENTON.

"Mr Cornwall, I would like to see
you after you have dismissed your
class" said Miss Mary Moriarty. en-.
tering the classroom: and the pupils
grinned.
II was always q sore point with the
male teachers In public school No. Z
that they had woman principal.
Miss Moriarty was forty.onc, plump,
good natured and infexible. Henry
Cornwall was not a good disciplinari.

themes. II he had had the oppor-
tunity of lecturing upon the economic.

out of his field as a teacher OF ge.
ography and history OF modern times.
And he was always late.
Il guess it's all up with Henry"
said one OF the girls. Miss Mary will
report him to the board for sure. this
time"
That was just what was on the
schedule. AS Miss Mary explained to
Mr. Cornwall during the recess:
Il am sorry must report you, Mr..
Cornwall, but you have been late sew.
en- times this month, and should not
be doing my duty II | let the matter
pass"
Henry Cornwall went out dazed.
The board did not like him. The
board was composed Of hard-headed
business men. who measured a teach
er's capacity In terms of time. Tn.
punctuality was a greater crime than
anything else in the boards eyes. Mr..
Cornwall would be thrown out of his
post. just when he had earned the
right to be promoted to the higher
grade, In which his abilities would
have chance to be discovered.
The rumor spread through the
school that Mr.. Cornwall was to be
reported at the next board meeting.
why doesn't he marry the old
cat inquired Miss Dorothy Perkins.
Say, fellows. wouldn't that be great!

But before he closed his eyes and
composed himself for his rest he came
to the desperate decision to make a
personal appeal to her. Perhaps he
could convince her OF his ability,
when she understood the circum.

teacher did give him some right TO
clemency. And next term.
The class was ominously quiet next
morning as Mr.. Cornwall Give min.

II there was tendency to suppr essed
mirth on the part Of the feminine
members, no inkling OF this reached
Mr.. Cornwall's mind. He had decided
to make his appeal to Miss Moriarty
during the hour of recess. He was
going to ask her to see him, when she
came round on the matutinal inspsc.

Miss Mary looked up at him. Henry

girlish her appearance was. Go on"
she said. gently.
Go on?' exclaimed the teacher.
About the new circumstances"
said Miss Mary, meaningly.
That was all she said, but a strange
thrill ran through Henry Cornwalls
frame. 1t was years since a woman
had looked at him In that way. Miss
Mary had not said a word to indicate
what she was thinking Of, but-well,
Henry Cornwall knew.
He slid of his chair and down at
Miss Mary's feet, and drew her down
to him and kissed her on the lips. A
minute and half afterward they
were engaged.
