 HIS LAST DAY
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

There was no hope, not the teeniest weeniest ray of hope, in the heart Of Chatterer the Red Squirrel as Farmer Browns boy picked up the wire rat trap in which Chatterer was pris oEer and started for the house, Blac Pussy, the cat, following at his hee' and looking up at Chatterer wit cruel, hungry eyes.

NEW YORK-StilI we see them, these fascinating beaded bags, and the beads are getting larger.
 The newest ones are of wood wooden balls, strung and then woven into shape.
 This Erpf and Garbe bag is done entirely in black and white, conven- tionally designed and heavily tas- seled. It gathers at the top quite like any ordinary silk bag.
 And, of course, with bag of shiny black wooden beads there could be nothing but a black hat, something with a different air.
 So Milady's hat, an Idaire model. is done in black bagatelle with a flat tering halo of burnt goose. The feathers give a softness to the gen. eral outline of the hat-a tendency of the season.

London, Feb. 15.-Revolution has broken out in the Indian state of Tonk, in Rajpanta, says Reuter- despatch from Allababad. After agreeing to de- mands of the people the Mohammedan rules of the distriCt addressed leaders in the movement, wh ereupon Tioting broke out. State troops are actively engaged and people are fleeing toward British territory. -.
 The dispatch from Allahabad does not explain the peoples grievance. The as- sumption here, he wever. is that the trou- ble was not directed against the British government, but against the native ruler who, while answerable to the British government. has virtually full powers ir the administration of the domestic affair: of his state. Irrespective of Tonk, it i: well known that taxation in many of tht native states is exceedingly high and ir some cases well-nigh unbearable, while the people have virtually no voice ir their government.
 Recently there has been much uneasi ness in this section of India because O the scanty rainfall and consequent poo, crops.
 The native troops referred to undoubt edly are soldiers of the ruler, who main tains small standing army. Tonk i Mohammedan while the rest of the peopl of Rsjputana are Hindus.

Feb. 15.-Suouort of oIll drawn by the Connecticut Fedora ton or Labor and offered by Senator Macdonald of Putnam, which would make pueilc service vehicles common carriers and place them under the public utilities commission. was freely offered at a nearing this afternoon .5efore the judi cray committee. The author of the bill was Ira \. Ornburn, secretary of the Ieoeration, who last session served on the special commission which investigat- ed the whole trolley problem. He drew tne Dill as embodying in general his ideas or what should be done with the jitneys.
 Mir. Ornburn spoke for the bill briefly, put 10 the point, 10 the effect that trolley companies are operating against unfair competition. and that the jitney, if it is permitted to operate at all. should be un- der the same regulation as the trolley cars. He cited instances to support his argument. saying that when the peak time comes for travel the jitney comes out and takes the profit and at other times 1t is out of business. On good routes it will pick up a load and turn back to deliver its passengers downtoWr ; as quick as poss.-le and then hustle back for more, going no further than neces. sary. In stormy weather it will run ol not as the driver secs fit. On slipper, pavements the vehicle will not have or safety chains.

HARDING REVIEWS CABINET
 WITH CAMPAIGN MANAGERS

st. Augustine, Fla. Feb. 1sLPresi- dent-eiect Harding today finally reviewed his cabinet decisions with his caneaign mail1ger and prospectkeS post2sastef' general, Will H. Hays. and received from a member of President Wilson's peace delegation unqualified assurances that no agreements for cancellation of the allied war debt was made at Versailles.
 The conference with KIT. Hays, gener- ally interpreted as conclusive evidence that the republican national chairman is to become member of MT. Harding's official family, is understood to have covered every feature of the cabinet sit uation as well as various questions of policy.

Harding by Thomas ". Lamont, a mem- Der of the MorgaH banking firm and a fiscal attache of the peace commission. | In statement after his conference with | the president-elect, MT. Lamont made | fiat denial of recent stories of a mysteri- ous agreement to wipe the war debt oil the books and said he had assured the tpresident-elect his administration would be 'as free and untrammeled as air in dealing with the question.
 MT Lamont's statement attracted par. ticular attention because of his intimate knowledge of the Versailles negotiations and because his firm is the principal fis- ical agent in this country for the debtor
 powers MT. Harding is understood .tc have discussed with Him his own proposa, for. converting the debts into negotiable paper, but neither would comment after. ward on that feature of the discussion Mir. Lamont did say, however, that ht
 found the views of the president-eiec
 sane and reassuring."

In his message, the reading of which occupied only fifteen minutes, the king touched on some of the problems with which the British empire is faced at the present 1 time-unemp. oyment, Ireland, India and the Near East. &. l Violence in Ireland was strongly con-
 demned by the king, who declared
 neither Irish unity nor Irish self-go' . ernment can be attained by this meank.' Referring to the arrangements for making effective the governments Irish

VOTE ON FoRDNEY TARIFF
 BILL IS PROBABLE TODA1

Washington, Feb. 15.-The senate made real progress in it's consideration of the Fordney emergency tariff bil1 today and when the eight-hour session ended it had taken up and adopted four of the nine remaining amendments which had been recommended by. it's finance committee.
 At the close of the da. s work Senator McCumber, republican, North Dakota, in charge of the bill. said prospects were good for a vote tomorrow. A vote to- night had been the object of supporters of the bill, but they were thwarted by 8 series of speeches, some extremely heat. ed, which delayed action on amendments.
 After it became apparent that, final action on the, bill could not be had to- night Mr. McCumber sought to conclude consideration of all committee ,, amend ments. This plan likewise suffered de- feat ...
 Among the amendments accepted by tn esenate was the substitute sugar schedule proposed by Senator SmooI, re- publican, Utah, for that agreed upon by the committee. The Smoot amendment would place the tariff at one cent per pound in addition to the present duty of the same. amount, while the committee amendment to the house. bin would have added approximately three cents pound to the present rate.
 The other amendments adopted by the senate would provide rates as follows Butter and butter substitutes eight cents per pound; chees and cheese sub stitutes, 23 per cent ad valJrem; fresh
 milk, two cents per gallon, and cream five cents per gallon.
 Democratic opponents of the aeeasure claimed to have won a point which, ii | was said. will eventually cause trouble I for the measures proponents. The near
 unanimous votesS it was declared. wifi
 force members or the senate conference committee to hold out to the end againsi | house conferees when the bill goes te conference. The house refused on three occasions to add sugar to the commodi
 ties for which protection was afforded ] and leaders said there was no reason ts 1 expect a changed sentiment.
