Either one of them would have served to hold a hat or a coat.
 Sure enough" he laughed. "You're the fellow who was kind enough to lei me have a dollar the other night"
 'Yes," said the victim, ''and you were going to stop in with it on your way back to New London"
 Right. And I haven't got started back yet. Had some business to at- tend tO-shipping board stuff-owe me a lot of money-you understand"
 The victim nodded. q understand" !" he agreed.

 And I've mislaid your, address. Can't find it anywhere. Left it in one of my other suits, I guess"
 Again the victim nodded. He un- derstood. "But you can slip it to me now" he suggested. You must have been down to see your-was it your uncle?'
 Doeley was breathing jerkily by that time, but he was able to explain that he had let his wallet tumble out of his pocket while riding across the Brook lyn bridge.
 "Yes, he was riding across the bridge" his sucker" interposed. And I've promised to let him have enough to get to Perth Amboy."
 In the ten minutes that followed the first victim informed the new stranger that Doeley had already lost his pock- etbOok or had his pockets picked nine times at least within ten days.
 T don't care" said the new one. "Ive promised to give him $2 and as a matter of principle I'm going to keep the promise. I'm going to hand him two dollar bills right now and beat it back to Paterson, and if you want to hit him over the dome with a mustard pot or something and take one of them, it's no concern of mine."
 DOeley got the two dollars and sur rendered one to the victim who had found him out.
 "Take it. he said, land we'll be good friends"

MEASURE YIELDS
 HALF BILLION
MAJORITY SAYS UNITED STATES MAY NOW RETURN TO SOUND
 POLICY OF PROTECTION.
TARIFF BILL IS PASSED
OIL, HIDES, ASPHALT AND cor TON REMAIN ON FREE
 LIST.
(western Newspaper Union News sevice.)

| NheSIeIn NeNspdper OnlOn NeWS oefflceJ Washington, July 22.-The Republi- can protective tariff bill, estimated by Shairman Fordney to raise around $500,0000 900 in revenue annually, was passed by the House by a vote of 2S9 to 127-precisely the vote by which a Democratic motion for elimination of its American valuation provision was defeated. Seven Republicans voted against the measure, while the same number of Democratic supported it.
 ,Oil, hides, cotton and asphalt re- mained on the free list. The Long, worth dye embargo, backed by a Re publican majority on the ways and means committee, was thrown out, 2O9 to 193.
 There was not much chance of im- posing a duty on hides and cotton after the House, in committee of the whole, had defeated amendments car rying compensatory rates on their manufactured products. When the oil amendment was reached there was such a shout of noes that a roll call was not demanded.
 After the House had passed the bill and adjourned, Chairman FOrdney and Representative Garrett of Tennessee, the acting minority leader, issued statements defending and denOuncing it.
 Declaring the measure a "monstros- ity," MT. Garrett asserted that the Democrats were given just five oP- portunities to win, and they won all five
 Although no direct comparison was made with rates in the Payne-Aldrich bill, which figured so largely in the political discussion, Chairman Fordney declared the average ad valorem rates in his bill were slightly lower.
 'The passage of the tariff bill by the House with substantial major ity," MT. Fordney said, marks the conclusion of an important step in the return of America to the sound policy of protection. It will yield, when en- acted, close to $5O0,OOO.OO0 annually and the average of the tariff of 1909."
 The 346-page bill, with it's multitude of amendments, goes to the Senate in the usual way, to be referred to Chair man Penrose's finance committee for tinkering How long it will remain there nobody knows. Senator Pen rose said, however, that open hearings would be held, but that they probably would be brief. It seemed to be pretty well understood by House members that when the bill comes back from the Senate it will not be in the same form as passed.

Panhandler Is
 Nipped by Victim

the victim, one of the night workers who knew better than to believe ev- erything he hears up and down Park Row, looked down on Broadway and cOnfided to a friend that he was wait ing for a man from New London, a well-dressed lad with the gift of gab who had had his pocket picked while spending a day in woolly New York.
 sSa-a-ay," said the friend, "this New London bird wasn't on his way to Perth Amboy to get some jack from a wealthy uncle, was he?"
 The victim, then just beginning to surmise the worst, nodded. For the next three days he continued to hear the stories of other victims who "fell'' for the story of the stolen roll and the high family ties and Perth Amboy and everything.
 In the stories of ordinary panhan- dlers' suckers" there would be noth- ing further to remark. In this one, however, there was a sequel.
 It was four o'clock on a Sunday morning and the victim mentioned in Part 1 and another night working pal were sitting in one of the most luxuri- ous armchairs that could be found in several years inspection. They had just completed a general free-for-all discussion of the ability of various panhandlers when the door was thrust violently open by two men. The new corners proceeded to the counter; one invited the other to order anything he wanted.
 Have a couple of ham-and sand wiches, MT. Doeley," ne urged. They'll do you good and you'll need them to hold you over until you reach New London"
 That WeII-Remembered Voice.
 Perth Amboy," the other corrected, ''New London later on."
 The victim turned slowly. He wasn't mistaken. He couldn't forget that face nor the thick-rimmed spec tacles perched on the-now that he noticed it-rather pre-Volsteadian nose. His inclination was to do some thing that would measure up to the statute that covers felonies, but wait ed until Doeley and his latest sucker" were well on their way to the end of the meal. Then he walked over, his pal bringing up strong rear.
 Hello Doeley," he said in greeting. How about that buckY
 You've certainly got the advantage of me-" Doeley answered in a voice that had it's root in the Social Reg iSter. "YOu certainly have. I guess I've got standard face"
 "NO you haven't" the ham-and eater was told. "As matter of fact you have a rather successful face"
 Doeley stood on his dignity until a bit of paper upon which he had writ ten his name and an address and tele- phone number in New London were produced. Then his eyes popped out at least three-quarters of an inch.

Average Life of Motor Cars.

As highway transportation develops and passenger cars and truck become practically the sole means of road travel, the proportion of first pur- chasers of cars and trucks in the total of car sales will decrease, and the demand for new cars each year will become more and more nearly equal to the number of cars which drop out of service. For this reason it is be coming increasingly important for the trade to know how many cars will be required for replacement of those with drawn from service. Analysis of regis tration, production, export and import figures over a period of years leads to the conclusion that the average life of two million cars retired from service in the last seven years was about 5.3 years.-Scientific American.
