Eve of First of HAY.

The eve of the first of May is known
in German legend as Walpurgis night,
the Detroit News recalls. Then witch
es and other workers of evil hold high
revel and offer sacrifices TO the devil
as their lord and master. The scene
of their festival in Germany is the
Brocken, famous peak in the Harz
mountains, 3,745 feet high. This an
nual festival was, in the popular be-
lief, conceded to them in recompense
for the loss they sustained when by
st. Walpurga the Saxons were per-
suaded to renOunce paganism with its
rites for Christianity. ST. Walpursa
was an English nun, who, in the mid
die of the Eighth century, went as
missionary to Germany. She was sue
cessrul and was held in high honor by
those she converted

Homes of the Middle Ages.

The two most essential improve
ments in architecture during this pc
riod, one of which had been missed
by the sagacity Of Greece and Rome,
were chimneys and glass windows.
Nothing apparently can be more sim
pie than the former; yet the wisdom
of ancient times had been content to
let the smoke escape by an aperture
in the center Of the roof; and a dis
covery. of which VitruviuS had not a
glimpse, was made, perhaps in this
country, by some forgotten semi-bar-
harlan. About the middle of the
Fourteenth century the use Of Chin
neys is distinctly mentioned in Eng
land and in Italy; but they are found
in several of our castles which bear
a much older date

The peril that resides in overWhelm-

again TO the Republicans in congress
IN the case of the tax bill. The senate
Rebuhlicans have been split up into
several groups that Sc far have been
unable to agree on the changes to be
made in the measure as passed by the
house. and the Democratic minority,
consequently. is hopeful of carrying
out its program. The main features
Of this are:
A higher SurtaX rate than 81 per
cent TO affect incomes In excess Of
100000.
4 graduated corporation income tax
In place of the proposed 10 per cent
rate.
Retention Of the corporation capital

Pullman transportation taxes and nf
the $1,000 exemption allowed to cor

changes:

Now President Harding has made II
known that he is opposed to having
the matter of the allied debts brought
up at all at the parley. He believes
1t can be better settled In other ways,
and that the conference will have
enough to do in considering the ques-
tions provided in the agenda as it
now stands. He is extremely de-
sirous that something big be accom-
plished in the reduction Of armaments
and the settlement Of the pressing
problems Of the Pacific and the Far
East and does not wish the work OF
the conference made more arduous
by the injection Of other questions.
When the French chamber Of de-
puties meets on October 18. Premier
BRAND expects to obtain vote Of

mission for him to attend the confer

clared his intention Of coming Prime
Minister Lloyd George has begun to
think he, too, will be able to attend
the parley, believing that the Irish
peace negotiations will be so well IN
der way that he can leave them to
others for q few weeks. 1t Is said,
too, that Lloyd George hopes to ar
range a preliminary conference with
the representatives of France and
Italy before they come over. Ostensi-
bly, this would be a meeting to con-
slider the report of the League of Ma
