?f the Senate and House made rapid !
progress en the tariff ML approving
earthenware and glassware schedules
with slight changes; the sugar sched^
ale with its free sugar provision, dud
the date for the new rates extended to

-the wool schedule and all the agricul- .
tural schedules with the exception of j
the proposed banana tax and the i

VUUUbUi raumg uutj via t?
In the metal schedule the con- \
ferees struck the first snag and after
several hours discussion the entire
^ matter was passed over to be taken
up later. Majority Leader Underwood j
and the other House conferees insist- ;
ed that the Senate should recede froir j
its action in placing ferro manganese, j
pig iron, steel ingots, slabs and blooms
- on the free list. They contended that ;
too much revenue is sacrificed and j
there is a growing opi: ;on that thfe J
Senate conferees eventually will agree j
to small revenue duties on these ar- |
tides.
Contrary to the genera! expec a- :
tion, little difficulty was encountered
in the agricultural schedule, the i
House conferees agreeing quickly to :
free cattle. The dispute on the j
countervailing duty on wheat is yet j
to be settled.
As to the banana tax it is generally j
known that the President wishes it j
^ . 9tricken out. This would mean a ioss ,
m in revenue of approximately two and
F a half million dollars.
m In all of the schedules slight j
ft changes were made, the Senate re- j

Battle For Thaw Before Governor, j
Colebrook, X. H.?The protracted '
court battle denied Harry K. Thaw in
Canada by his sudden deportation,
promises to be waged in New Hampshire.
His newly retained counsel
hope to have a personal hearing be
fore Governor Felker on the matter 1
of extradition, and should extradition J
be granted they will carry the matter !
to the state Supreme Court on a writ .

Epidemic cf Counterfeits. ;
Washington.?There seems to be
9 an epidemic of counterfeits and the ;
United States Secret Service has re- I
doubled its efforts to catch offenders.
Following an announcement a few ,
, days ago, after the discovery of three :
new counterfeit National bank notes,
Acting Chief W. H. Moran warned the
nuhlic of a new counterfeit S3 United ;
States note. It is a poor photographic j
reproduction on paper of fair quality, j
The Treasury seal has been lightly ;
touched with ink ing and a slight at- '
v. tempt has been made to apply green .
coloring matter to the back of the j
hill.
$10,COO For Americans in Mexico.
Washington".?In response to an ur- j
gent demand from the State Depart- !
ment, the House passed a joint reso- ;
lulion making an emergency appro- .
< priation of $100,000 to be used for the :
TAlfpf <->r ^ps+ifnfp Americans in Mexi- !
co and for their transportation to the }
United States. Majority Leader Un- '
derwood presented the emergency |
resolution and read a letter from j
Secretary Bryan asking immediate
action. The Secretary said the De- |
partment was using $2,000 a day to j
aid Americans in Mexico.
"Murdered" Woman in Good Health.
Havana, Cuba.?Mrs Lena Janin,
>
who was supposed to have been murdered
in New York, her body cut up 1
and thrown into the Hudson river, and \
Vincent Pianneils, whose n.im - has j
been mentioned in connection with j
the case, were found living in a J
house on Havana street here. The
couple said they had lived together J
in New York and had sailed for Ha 1
vana ten days after Pianells had had
a dispute with Casper Janin, the woman's
husband, over the question of
Janins obtaining a divorce.

Many Hogs Die of Cholera.
"Washington.?Inauguration of a '
country-wide campaign to eliminate
"hog cholera is urged in a report by
'Marlon Dorset, of the Bureau of An:- J
mal Industry, tvho estimates that dur- j
ing the past year about $ > >,000;OOP j
* worth of hogs died of the disease, j
After experimenting for more than j
25 years, the department of agricuJ- !
ture finally discovered a serum that i
would prevent the disease. This j

Tribute ot Respect.
Whereas, our kind Heavenly Father
in Uis all-wise providence has called
f.oiu our mid<d, our dear sister, Alice
Argro, who was dcvouted to her church i
and all Christian work. Therefore be j
i t r?'solved;
1. That the removal of such a life j
from our midst loaves a vacancy in ;
our family circle Chat can never oe
filled and a vacant chair in her home
that can not be replaced.
2. We know that our los3 is her gain,
for we know that she is now resting
from all the sorrows, troubles and afflictions
of this worid.
3. We hope that her brothers and
sisters and father and mother will all
be united safely in heaven and that
tier broken hearted sisters will find
comfort in trusting in the Lord, the
giver of all virtues, to that end.
4. Although she has left us, we can
hear the echoes of her sweet voice
and feel her gentle presence, but the
familiar sound of her footsteps is
heard no more?sleep on dear sister
till ttp mppt ao-am to cart no more.
Although the home seems isolated we
find pleasure iu knowing we 3hall
meet again bye-aad-bve in that land
beyond the sky. Her sisters.
All those who have a torpid liver,
weak digestion or constipated bowels,
look out for cnills. The season is here
and the air is full of disease germs.
The proper thing to do is to put your
liver in good condition and purify the
stomach ai d bowels. SIMMON'S RED
Z LIVER REGULATOR is the right
remedy. It answers the purpose completely.
