BADEN-P0WELL GIFTED
IN PARLOR REPERTOIRE
Being Modest, Famous Englishman
Hid Beneath Piano to Per-
form His Tricks.

LONDON (N.A.N.A).-Lord Baden
Powell, who was 70 on February 20, has
gained distinction in many fields. Not
least among his varied accomplishments
are parlor tricks. of which he possesses
a wide repertoire
He is, for instance. a very gifted
'siffleur," and when he was q young
man he used often to be called upon
to display his mastery of this far from
negligible art. He was modest Of his
ability, however. and on one occasion
when he was asked TO perform in front
Of celebrated pianist. he only con-
sented to do so on his own terms. These
were somewhat singular.
He insisted on retiring out of sight Of
his audience-beneath the piano. Once
there, he entertained the company to
their great content. This must be as
near as any man come to hiding his
light under a bushel!"

WHEN HE SWALLOWS POISON
Wayne G. Barber, 10 Months
Old, Drinks From Pretty
Brown Bottle.
Quick Work at Hospital Re-
Moves Youngster From
Danger.

Childish curiosity nearly caused the
death yesterday Of Wayne G. Barber,
1S-month-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Clarence C. Barber of 444 Massachu-
sets avenue, while the baby was at play
in the bed room of his parents home.

into the bed room shortly after 10
O'Clock yesterday morning-the mother
to dust the furniture and the boy tc
cavort on the floor.
EngroSsed in her duties, Mrs. Barber
turned her attention from the son fol-
a few moments and the baby crawled
across the floor to o medicine chest and
gleefully reached for q pretty brown
tents-a disinfectant.
Completing her busting, Mrs. Barber
was horror stricken when she saw
Wayne drinking the poison. Snatchine
the bottle from his hands, she screamed
for her husband who ran into the bed
room and, hearing the story, grabbed
his son and raced to No. 6 Engine Com
pany, few doors away, and asked that
some one drive him to the hospital.
Returned to Home.
Policeman Carl Speiss of No. pre-
cinct, who was of duty and had
stopped in at the fire house to chat
with friends. drove Barber and the
child to the Emergency Hospital, where

garded as serious.

Harrison Objects to Doane,
Former Tariff League Bu-

The troubled relations of Senator

Gated yesterday by q demand that the
Pennsylvania Republican be required to
remove from his ONCE those who
worked with him in the old American
Tariff League News Bureau.
Senator Harrison, Democrat, Missis-
sippi, took this course OF the floor in
visit to Chairman Moses of the rules
committee. Moses replied that he was
accepting Grundy's word that all those
using his ONCE were his employees and
that he could not enforce a censor
ship"
There the issue rested last night.
There were rumors of an attempt to
get the Senate to act but no one has
come forward with a resolution. Sen
ator Harrison has not determined his
course.
Grundy told the Senate yesterday he
had mo apologies" for employing War
rem T. Doane, who was with him at
his headquarters of the American
Tariff League News Bureau before he
entered the Senate. He insisted that
no one used his ONCE except his own
employees.
The Senate still has before it the
resolution of Senator Nye, Republican.
North Dakota, to bar Grundy from his
seat because of his connections with
the $4,000, 900 Pennsylvania Republican
primary of 1926. Grundy was appoint
ed by Gov. Fisher, who was nominated
in that primary. However, the cleo
lions committee has held unanimously
that the Senate cannot 60 behind a
State election and therefore has no
right to bar Grundy's appointment by
Gov. Fisher.

Of the opinion that his relations with
the Tariff League could not be con-
nected with the resolution questioning
the legality of his appointment. There
seems, therefore, to be little prospect of
this receiving consideration when the
Nye resolution is acted upon.

PHILADELPHIA, March 9. The
Philadelphia Evening Bulletin today
prints what is purported to be an un-
published letter by Abraham Lincoln,
giving his views on the tariff question
in 1859.
It was addressed to DR.. Edward Wal
lace, Philadelphia physician, and was
found among the papers inherited by
his daughters, the late Misses Mary
and Margaret Wallace. It is now held
as q part Of their estate by Norman w.
Harker, q Philadelphia lawyer.
The letter was written on the sta
tionery Of the "office Of the circuit
clerk and recorder of Dewitt County,
Illinois," and was dated Clinton. Oc-
tober IL, 1889" In some instances
dashes were used instead of punctua-
ton. It reads:
at am here, I Just now, attending
court-Yesterday before / left Spring
field, your brother, DR.. William S, Wal
lace, showed me a letter of yours, in
which you kindly mention my name,
inquire for my tariff views; and sun-
gest the propriety of my writing a let
ter upon the subject was an old
Henry Clay tariff Whig-In old times ]
made more speeches on that subject,
than on any other. I have not since
changed my views-I believe yet, II
we could have a moderate, carefully ad-
justed, protective tariff, so far acquiesced
in, as not to be a perpetual subject OF
political strife, squabbles changes, and
uncertainties, It would be better fol-
us-Stiil, 1t Is my opinion that, Just
now. the revival of that question will
not advance the cause itself, or the
mar, who revives it, have not thought
much upon the subject recently, but
NV general impression Is, that the
necessity for protective tariff will, ere
long. force its old opponents to take II
in. and then It's old friends car
ioin in, and establish it on a more Arm
and durable basis. We, the old Wings
nave been entirely beaten out on this

"A. P. IN WEEK SENDS
2,962,715 WORDS
General Manager Cooper, in
Radio Talk, Describes
Newspaper Service.
Nv the Associated pre,s

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 8.--That word
count of the news report of the Asso-
ciated Press for one normal week
totaled 2,562,715, was disclosed tonight
in radio speech by Kent Cooper, gen.
eral manager of the Associated Press.
Mr.. Cooper spoke over the network of
WEAF of the National Broadcasting
Co. In the new Business World" series.
He was introduced by Merle Thorpe,
editor of the Nations Business.
The word count, which was the first
complete one ever undertaken by the
Associated Press, was but recently
made. It excluded the figures of the
bond and stock market prices of the
various exchanges, which, rs trans
mitted, alone I'LL an average of IL col
umns daily in the larger newspapers.
1888 Separate Items.
"The news that made up that total
in that week." said Mr.. Cooper, came
from 1850 different cities or towns
1898 separate items.
'No single newspaper received all of
this news. Indeed, If 1t had it could not
use it all. The average was 1000
words day, or 367 columns, or 46 pages
Of a newspaper. All of It was delivered
as the needs of each member paper re-
quired. Each reader of newspaper
found some part of this total wordage
of interest to him, so that in the ag-
gregate all of 1t was read by some one,
somewhere. It was the history of the
world in its manifold activities for that
week."
Layman's Attitude.
Mr.. Cooper urged better conception
by the layman of the Importance of the
task Of the news reporter. 1T is queer
twist of the layman's attitude toward
the truth in news" he said, that he
will sometimes make every conceivable
effort to restrain the reporter from get
ting at the truth and then denounce
newspapers generally for one error out
of q thousand assertions.
I'm q days work the reporter may
have to deal with the dregS Of humanity,
through the mazes of politics, of COM
merce, Of finance, Of diplomacy, where
the fates Of nations are decided, and
often he not only finds distractions pur-
posely placed in his way, but, worse still,
effort is actually made to deceive and
mislead him"
