MANY LEGENDS OF THE OAK
Trees Grandeur and Beauty Seem to
Have Impressed Each Ansient
Race in Tusn.

The ancient races, struck with the
noble aspect Of the oak, have in all
ages enveloped II in the clouds Of their
legends and carried ii back To the re.
hottest antiquity. OF this class was
the holm oak. which in the days Of
Pliny S.ll existed near Rome. on the
trunk OF which was an Etruscan in
Scription in letters of brass stating
that before the existence OF the Eternal
city It was already the object of popu-
lar ,eneration. The Roman naturalist
also asserts that in the enylronS Of
Heracles. q the kingdom Of Pontus,
there was a tradition that two oaks
which ovcrshadowed the altar Of Jupi-
ter Stragius had been planted by Her
cules. The origin Of certain trees is
lost in even remote antiquity.
The imposing terror nf the Her
cynian forest has deeply impressed all
those who have described Germany,
and Pliny and Tacitus especially. The
aged oaks OF its somber wales. where
wandered the elk and the aurochs, es-
pecially aroused the admiration Of the
Roman historian. "The majestic gran
deur Of the oak in this forest he says,
"Surpasses all imaginable belief; this
tree has never been touched with the
aX; It is contemporary with the crea-
tlon Of the world and appears TO be the
symbol of Immortality"

In his statement attacking the tariff

Simmons said it was the highest tariff
bill ever written. He added that a
tariff more unsuited to present con-

publican tariff that will be condemned
not as bringing prosperity, but ad-

night without having begun formula

Two Of the 19 demands submitted by

day in rebuttal of arguments already
presented by the strikers.
The demand which calls for settle
ment of future grievances upon basis
of equity, without using conditions Of
1902 as a precedent, was discussed
without any agreement being reached
as to its Incorporation in the new con-

Der of the senate finance committee
who in a statement characterized it as
the, most un-Americanized bill ever
framed He predicted its operation
would "penalize our export business
which will mean, in the end, curtailment
of production and increased unemploy-
ment on the farms, in the mines and in
the factories"
AT the same time senator's of the re-
publican agricultural-tariff bloc had the
first of series Of meetings to con-
slider rates in the measure which were
fixed by the finance committee major
ity at figures below those suggested
by the bloc. Senator Gooding of Idaho,
chairman of the bloc. also said that it
was the purpose to take up American
valuation at the meetings.
There is strong sentiment in the
senate for American valuation" he
members on record as favoring it, but
many are strongly impressed with the
principle"
:. Pending decision by the bloc.
Senator Gooding would not say
whether q fight for American valua-
ton would be made on the floor. He
said it might be difficult to have the
valuation basis changed in the senate,
because Of the great task involved in
rewriting all the rates in the bill.

ENTENTE
IS OPPOSED To
A WAR HOLIDAY
Lloyd George Idea Re-
garded as Lacking in
Needed Guarantees.

London, April 13.-The reported in
tention of Prime Minister Lloyd George
to propose at Genoa that no nation
shall attack another is featured in two
or three of the London newspapers.
Reports from Genoa, according to
the morning newspapers. indicate that
the proposal, if it is made, is not likely
to receive universal proposal. The
members of the Little Entente. one
report asserts, have decided they must
have certain guarantees before enter
ing such a pact, while another report
says the Little Entente is definitely
against the pact.
However plausibly the plan may be
framed says the Daily News, st is
bound to be more spectacular than
real. Mr.. Lloyd George has declared
that the conference before it can use
fully discuss disarmament, must create
Il peaceful atmosphere by settling the
causes of disagreements which lead to
war. He might have added that an
efficient instrument already was avail
able both to remove disagreements and
to organize disarmament.

Nations provides for the very penalties

Holds England SwindIed Too
''The price, on the other hand. which
we had to pay for these agreements
solely because they were confined to
four nations, was terrific. In order to
effect the tbattleship reduction and the
ten years peace on the Pacific, the
United States had to go into the four

and also this nation and England were
obliged to surrender to Japan complete
naval, military and economic control Of
the Pacific, and the far east.
The reiteration of the policy of the
open door even in more specific terms
will amount to practically nothing in
practice. Japan. as she has done, for
80 years. will agree on paper and then
proceed with her fixed policy of econ
omic penetration of China, Siberia,
Manchuria and the entire far east. In
the meantime England and America will
find that they will be obliged gradually
to abandon most of their great trade

of the world in favor of Japan"

Digging Dog Reveals
Cave-in Tragedy; Trio

Topeka. Kan, April 13.-The frantic
digging of small white dog in his eff

been buried in cave-in. led to the dis
covery of the bodies of three school
boys. who had been killed when a Boy
Scout tunnel in the banks of Ward

caved in
The dog was seen by six tramps who.
few hours before, had talked with
the boys while they were eating their
lunch in the cave. After digging out
one body, they called for help and the
other two were recovered. About a
ton of dirt had covered the bodies.
