UBA has recip rocity In tra d e w ith th e U nited S ^ te s . T he bill giving th e Island th e benefits of the trad e ag reem en t w as considered a t an ex tra session of congress called by P res iden t Roosevelt. T here w as a good deal of sen tim en t in the Cu­ban matter^ m ore th a n th e re has been In connection w ith th e Cana­d ian recip rocity m easure. The bill

w en t th rough the bouse and was sanctioned by the senate tak ing all

told only th re e w eeks in its passage T he m em bers of congress debated and talked

tw en ty percentum reductions, sugar tru s ts and th e like fo r four days and then the ten se hour approached w hen th e vote w as to be taken. T he tim e was ten se no tw ith stand ing the fac t th a t It w as know n th a t the bill was to ca rry by a g rea t m ajo rity . T he galleries w ere packed w ith i>eople and in th e halls w ithout w ere hundreds unable to

gain adm ission, yet stand ing still and listen ing fo r the resu lt of the ballot th a t w as to show we knew how “to help a w eak s is te r republic to her financial feet."'

The house clock hands w-ere a t the exact hour c f 4. T he vote of the rep resen ta tives of a g rea t and sovereign people had been taken. The repub­lic w aa tru e to its tru s t. T he solem nity of the feeling of duty well done still hung upon the g rea t cham ber. Each of th e thousands w ere busy w ith b is thoughts.

The voice of a m em ber from Ohio broke the stillness. “I have a resolution of privilege to of­fer." It said.

" I t m ust be a question o f high privilege, sir. to ^receive consideration a t such an hour,” said S peaker Cannon in solem nly subdued tones. "Let the resolution be read .”

"Resolved, T ha t th is house o f rep resen ta tives of the "United S ta les c f 'A m erlra au thorize the h ir­ing of ano ther r;ibcr:r for the capitol T urktsb-bath room s."

V**t€n the .\ppa lach ian M ountain F o res t Re­se rv e bill w as under consideration a m em ber of congress who w as in favor of saving fae tre es to ld a s trik ing story about the sav ing of a g rea t t r e e in fa r off A ustralia. I t w as a long w ay to go fo r a tre e story, but perhaps the m oral w as w orth th e journey. •

In 1868 Jo h n Boyle CReil^y, th e Irish poet, was a political convict in A ustralia , sen tenced to hard labo r for life. W ith a gang of fellow convicts un­d e r th e charge of a B ritish officer and a squad of so ld ie rs he w as b reak ing a loa^ th rough a trop i­cal forest.- T hey cam e to a tre e and th e m en w ere about to lay th e ax a t Its roo ts w hen O 'Reil­ly m ade them stop, dropping h is own ax the whlla T he B ritish officer ordered th e m en to w ork. O 'Reilly p u t h is hand to h is cap. sa lu ted and said, "1 should like to spekk to you.**

T h e officer w as am azed a t th is convict’s Impu­dence, b u t perhaps i t w as th e very boldness of th e th in g th a t w rought th e purpose Intended.

**Thls tre e is too beautifu l to fe ll; p lease le t it stand,** said th e convict.

The Brltieh soldier looked dumfqonded. **Come . over here,” said p lteilly . "and look at It from this volnt viesr.** ^

T te convict was now the commanding officer. H ie Bn^Iahmen followed the Iritfiiaan for s trail- 4 r«d Tsrdn, and th«i. tuming his horse. looked .OB Ike trsB end his eye kindled. He looked down

and Mid: **The oedws Me lor the

road to run s tra igh t, but we’ll send It around the tre e .”

If the A ustralian tre e is s till s tanding . It s tands as a m onum ent to an Irishm an who had a soul. 4

Once R epresentative,'W illiam Alden Sm ith, now a U nited S ta tes senator, tried his level best in the house debate on P anam a to m ake C ongress­m an D insm ore of A rkansas supply a stock of good Republican cam paign m aterial, ju s t as B laine baited Ben H ill In the old days. D insm ore was ta lk ing about the h asty recognition of th e Inde­pendence of P anam a by th e U nited S ta tes and drew a com parison betw een th a t action and th^ a ttem p ts of th is governipent to keep foreign na­tions from recognizing th e confederacy In 1861.

Th^ ArkaB^ne m em ber got w-anned up and be­gan to ta lk about the^ pow er of th e confederacy. H e m ade th e s ta tem en t th a t Its so ld iers had th ra shed th e Union army.. In th e first six battle s of th e w ar. He got still w arm er as he w ent on. and suddenly Sm ith of M ichigan sp rung th e ques­tion. "A re you defending the righ ts of the s ta te s to secede?"

D insm ore cam e to him self like a fiasb. "Ah. B ro the r S m ith," he said, "how you would love to lead me in to th e p it! I have an abid ing affec­tion for you. but n e ith e r my feet no r my tongue shall go as tray for the benefit of the Republican party .”

Everybody know s w hat a s tick ler the senate is for courtesy. Courtesy has a sea t a t every desk. W lien one senato r re fe rs to ano ther, w hethe r he be a political foe o r a polltcal friend , It is always a s th e "d istinguished gentlem an from M aryland," o r from Maine o r ano ther s ta te , as th e case m ay be. S enato r T illm an said a fairly good th ing one day. It w as a side rem ark , but i t reached the gallery and w as enjoyed by the auditors, who bad become a b it w eary of res is tin g the Im pulse to salaam every time- a sen a to r rose and handed a few verbal flowers to a colleague.

S enato r Bailey had ju s t referred to the "Qls- tlnguished senato r from Maine. "Q uit it,” said T illm an, "you'll d istinguish them all till th e y 're • so stuck up th a t no one else can d istinguish them one from the o ther.”

W hen Jam es W ilson enme to W ashington 'as se ^ r t ta ry of ag ricu ltu re he under.-:ook t» bit of ?rlf-d€‘'c r ip tirn by saying to a c a lle r ' ' i p.m w hat they call a hayseed." It should be noted th a t Mr. W ilson did not say th a t he was a hayseed. He has th e Scotch P resby terian hab it of s tick ing to th e tru th even in hls-hum or. I t w as rum ored once th a t in o rder to evade the laws of th is country ce rta in g rea t com panies w ere p lanning to ta k e out corporation papers ab road . The m a tte r was ca ll­ed to the a tten tion of th e ag ricu ltn ra l m em ber of Mr. R oosevelt’s cabinet. H ls com m ent w as th is: "W e have law s; we have p e tit ju n e s ; we have g rand ju ries ; we have a departm en t of ju s tice ; we have courts, and we have pen iten tiaries.” T hen Mr. W ilson sm iled ju s t a little grim ly and refused to d i s u s e th e sub jec t fu rther. He couldn’t have said anyth ing th a t would have added one Hota to h ls m eaning, and he l^ e w it. T here Is no. w aste of w ords .In the conversation of Jam es W ilson.• S ecre tary W ilson nnquer^onab ly would be a

An ea rth road m ay be an excellent one to 3 a f a n J tomoih’ow a very bad one.

Cemetery Clean-l){i "Bee”T he M ail has been r e q u i te d to say

th a t a “ bee” will be m ade next week Tuesday for doing some :“ clean u p ” work a t R iverside cem etery. I t is said th a t m any w’eeds are grow ing up and will soon go to seed and th a t the tall g rass m akes the cem etery as a whole look unsigh tly . M any lots a re en tirely neglected by the owners and naturally those lots th a t are nicely k ep t up suffer by com parison. I t is in t^ d e d th e re ­fore, th a t the re be a general tun> out of everj’ man in terested , d irectly or indi­rectly , and who p o d b ly can , on next Tuesday und assist in the cu tting of weeds and g rass n n d clean ing up gen e r­a lly . The cem etery should be made one of the “ beauty spo ts” of the com­m unity and* while the village cemetery’ board is doing all it possibly can; there is yet much work left undone.

Therefore, the suggestioh of a “ bee.” on next T uesday, e ig h t o ’clock.. In case o f bad w eather, W ednesday will be the day. D on’t forget day and date and be on hand ea rly w ith tools to work w ith.

on tne subject of this bill will be repre sented with equal force. Senator Smith was the first to declare his intentions; he was, indeed, one of the first in the entire senate to line up. , However, all evidence available at this hour point to tbe ooDcluaion that be is on tbe wrong side of the fence.' In opposing reeiprocitj, he must either be following a personal honviotion or in possessicKi of some seoret sonroe of public opinion unfavorable to the bill.

Senator Townsend has taken consid­erable time to arrive at his decisioa, but the point to be noted is that he arrites on tbe right side. He has evidmitiy sounded both general aentiment and private (^dnion to theUrgeat extent possible. This fact is aem in his pub- liahed reasM for favoring the measures (1) his oonatitaenta want (2) it sub- •erves the best interests of tiie country. Obtaining both his eleetion and bis moral si^iport dinotly from the people, Senator Townsend in his delibeeations an his ooarae with lefereoee to reci­procity has done lurtfaing that can be oonstraed as antagonistio to the people. Instead he has oaiefoUy plumed the d^)ths of sentiment on toe matter and ta^en his stand with toe majori^. And that, if we are not mistaken, is itoat the people want their senators to do. ____________ •

Lansing.—A uditor G eneral F \iller Is of th e opinion the s ta te w ill se­cu re p ractica lly every cen t com ing to i t under the new law providing for a specific tax on m ortgages.

H e s ta te s th a t th e "provisions of the bill a re such ttrat holders of m ort­gages ' m ust necessarily pay th e ir taxes, poin ting to the clauses which requ ire th e holders to have a certifi­ca te from county tre a su re rs showing th a t the tax has been paid, before they can e ith e r cancel ,tbe m ortgage o r foreclose one.

County tre a su re rs are n o t so w ell p leased as they r 'lg h t be w ith the new law, in view of th e fac t th a t It con­ta in s no provision for com pensation for th e ex tra serv ice they a re called upon to perform . T he law requ ires them to furn ish an of thepaym ent of the tax. in th e case of m ortgages a t p resen t In force, the ow ners of w hich w ish to pay the spe­cific ta x in o rder to avoid paying the ad valorem tax. T he re is a lso the certificate to issue for a ll m ortgages on w hich the ta x Is paid, and the tax money to handle and rem it one-half to the s ta te .

Several tre a su re rs have w ritten to th e aud ito r genera l ask ing him to ad ­vise them re la tive to th e ir com pensa­tion, b u t be has n o t been able to re ­ply w ith an assu rance of p le thoric fees. P lans a re being w orked o u t by the aud iting dep a rtm en t for account­ing for th e tax. A ' system Is pro­posed under which the tre a s u re r will recdrd the tax on a book contain ing a c ^ b o n copy sheet, and th is sheet w ill be forw arded to th e aud ito r gen­eral w ith each m onth’s collection.

“Ah! 1 see." cried Dr. Lam pkin. “ I w as very s tup id ."/ ‘N ot a t all." re tu rn ed the detective,

“P erfectly .” answ ered W hidby; and H endricks bow ed him self o u t of the room.

CHAPTER X III.H endricks called a cab a t th e door

and drove to th e Offijse of Capt. Welsh.He found W elsh paqing the-floor in a fever o f im patience. .. “ I th o u g h t you woluld never tu rn up in the w orld,” said Welsh, as they took seats. “I t seem s to n ^ th a t every th ing is a t a s tandstill. Thg c ity is w ild w ith exc item ent and dem anding th a t some­th in g be done.”

H endricks sh rugged h is shoulders as if he had only h a lf bean! th e rem ark and had been d .'s tu rb td in some tra in of th ough t. He reached fo r a e ig ar in a box on th e cap ta in ’s |desk. b it th e end t> n t . and then seem ed to s in k in to a reverie again.

Welsh stared a t him a m om ent in vexation, then he saiti:

“ I was on th e w alch m yself a t the m ayor’s la s t n igh t. A bou t ten o'clock I saw Mrs. W alters slip o u t on the law n. She came very cautiously from the rea r of th e house. I saw her stoop to pick up som eth ing n ea r w h ercy o u r um ­b re lla w as le ft, and then she re tu rn ed by the f ro n t door.”

H endricks nodded slowly, b u t did not look up from th e spjot on th e ca rp e t a t w hich he had been s ta r in g fo r sev­eral m inu tes. W elsh flushed s ligh tly and w’e n t on aw kw ardly :

“ I had expected to find o u t a lo t abou t h e r ea rly life from ia lady friend ot m ine, b u t ,- a s bad l|ick w ill have it, th e lady has le f t th e city fo r th e sum ­m er, and I don’t exactly know w here she has gone. 1 w as th in k in g of h u n t­ing her up and go ing to see her, if you th in k —” j ,

H endricks rose abnjiptly. -‘iI-m ust-»-rite a le tte r ,” he said. “Give

TOme w ritin g materiails from (g n a w e r and p u t them before th e d^Wetive.

“ Do y o u 'w an t me toi cease m y investl- gatiol^s?” he asked ,1 im patiently .

H endricks dipped ci pen in th e ink ­well, and as he did eolhe looked up and c a u g h t e ig h t of fhe cap ta in ’s fage.

^Olu h ang i t all, c a p ta in !” he said— “pardon m e; I have h o t hean l h a lf of w ha t you w ere saying.

“Yes, certAinly, but)—”“1 have begun all o te r again .” And

H endricks began to iw rite hurried ly .“Coh I help you In any w ay?”“I am afra id n o t liow, cap ta in . A

A t tw o o’clock Henidricks ra n g tb e bell a t tbe S tro n g hom estead. W hidby him eelf opened tbe dq^r.

“ Is Miss D elm ar here?” asked th e de- tecUve.

“She has 'been here several m inu tes,” answ ered W hidby. “She is in tb e li- b rn ry .”

“G ood!" said H endricks. **Xow for businc.'ss,*' he w ent on. choevily. ns bo en tered th e lib ra ry anjd bowed to Miss D elm ar. “Move u p yi>ur chairs , bo th of you. T here, th a t | w ill do.

Do y ou happen to. know if y o u r uncle had an enem y of any so r t? ”

W hidby shook h is bend though tfu lly .“1 can’t th in k w ho i t could be. if he

had one.” he said. “On th e con trary , uncle seem ed to m ake friends w ith everyone.” •

“You d o n 't know nruch ab o u t Mr. S trong’s ea riy life w hich he sp en t in the m ines o u t w est. I believe?”

“No,' I don 't. He d id n o t speak o f i t eften.*"

q u a rre l w ith him , and, foraoiB e reason o f his ow n, he requested M atthew s n o t to m ention th e v is ito r to you. Now, we roust find th a t fellow i f w e can."

“B ut bow are you go ing to do it? " asked Miss D elm ar.

“T h a t’s w ha t I ’m h e rs fo r.” replied H endricks. “ ./Vnd you a re both going to help me. Now. th a t v isito r |;ame here and th rea tened Mr. S tro n g ab o u t some­th ing , so M atthew s says, and one w ho w ill th re a te n a m an to b£s face is a p t to do so in o th e r w ays. Me. W hidby, do you rem em ber ever having seen your uncle receive any le tte r w hich seem ed to d is tu rb h im a t a ll? ”

W hidby reflected a m om ent, then he looked up w ith a s ta r t .

“Y’es; I had n o t th o u g h t o f i t before, b u t m y uncle has once o r tw ice acted peculiarly a f te r receiving le tte rs . A bout a m onth iigo be opened a* le tte r a t th e b reak fa st ' '^able and seemed alm ost to tu rn sick over it. He wM w h ite and trem bled ^11 over. I asked h im w hat w as th e m a tte r , b u t he said be fe lt suddenly fa in t, and th a t w as a ll he would te ll me. I w as concerned ab o u t ' h im . and w anted to send |for a doctor, b u t he refused to le t me, and declared be w as all r ig h t. H e seemed so unr s tru n g th a t 1 fe l t uneasy. I really feared b is m ind w as affected, so 1 w atched him th ro u g h thei cu rta in s fo r aw hile a f te r he w en t in to th e room w here h e l ife p a h is papers."

"W hat did be do th e re? T ry —try to th in k o f everartbing.” virged th e detec­tive, bis eyes g li tte r in g as be fixed them on tbe young m an’s face.

“He stood a t th e window ,” w en t on W hidby. “and read tb e le tte r qgain. F rom w here I w as in tb e hAll I could see th e pap e r qm vering in h is hands. He rem ained th e re fo r a long tim e, as if in deep th ough t, and then , th rew ^ e envelope in to a w aste-paper basket, took dow n a file, and p u t tb e le tte r care­fu lly aw ay.”

“ Ah. I see. Good, so far^” exclaim ed H endricks. “Do you th in k yoy w ould know th a t le tte r ag a in ?” -

“ I don’t know ; perh ap s so. I t w as in a large, square, b lu ish envelope, and tb e sheet w as of th e sam e color, and of le tte r-paper size."

“ I. am glad v'ou rem em ber! those de­ta ils ." said H endricks. “Now le t’s in ­spect th a t file. May w e n p t go in the room w here Mr. S trong U^pt h is pa­pers?"

“C ertainly.” said W hidby. “The coast is clear. M atthew s is s tag in g dow n­sta irs . I am answ ering th e doorbell.”

*‘. \ t th is j 'oung lady’s Suggestion." said th e detective, w ith a Ibugb. as they u e re c ra s s in g th e hall.

‘T ra y how did you g u e s s tb a t . l 'd like to know ?" Mies D elm ar asked.

“ You w ere a fra id y o u r fa th e r would call here, an d if Mr. W hidby answ ered tbe bell you w ould have tim e to bide. Is n o t th a t tru e ? "

“P erfec tly .” replied th e g irl, v« lh a laugh. “ I’m glad be isn’t a fam ous de­tective. He would have found me ou t long ago.”

W hen they entered the li ttle ro o m and approached th e desk, w hich w as nea r a

“I don 't th in k th e re is m uch hope,” replied W hidby, in ^...low tone, as he s tea lth ily pressed h e r hand, h is eyee on tb e broad back o f tbe detective.

“I th in k the re is a g re a t deal,” said th e g irl. “Oh. I shou ld sim ply be de­ligh ted tq be able to show papa t h a t you a re innocent, a f te r all!

“B3' Jo v e!” H endricks’ s ta rtled ex­clam ation drew th t i r eyes to him . He w as bold ing tb e file close to his face, and e.xamining a le tte r w ith bis lens.

"W hat is i t ’.'" asked W hidby.“B-l-o-o-dl” said H endricks, playfully ,

“How do you know ?” asked Miss Del­m ar.

A trial psdesgs of Mnnyon’s Paw Paw Pills will be sent free to anyone on re ­quest. Address P rofessor Manyon, 5Sd 4 Jefferson Sts.p'PhQaidelphia, Pa. If ydu are in need of medical achice, de not toil to write Professor Muayon. Your eommuni- eatioQ will he,, treated in stric t confidence, and your iesM will be disgnoeiid as caiw fully ks though 70a had a personal inter­view.

Mnnyon’s Paw Paw Pills are unlike all other laxatlvae or oetbartics. They coax tbe liver into activity by gentle methods. They do not scour, they de not srtpe, they do not weaken, but they do s ta rt all the eecrctloss of the liver and stomach *m a way tha t soon puts these organs in a healthy oondition and corrects constipation. In my opinion constipation ia responsible for most ail­ments. There ara 20 feet of human bowels, which is resUy a sewer pipe. W hen this pipe 'becomes clogged the^ whole system becomes poisoned, caas-| ing biliousness, indigestion and impurei blood, which often produce rheumatinn and kidney ailments. N o woman who suffers with constipation or any liver ailment can expect to have a clear complexion or enjoy good health. If 1 had my way I would prohibit the tale of nine-tmths of the cathartics tha t ars> now being sold for the retson tha t they! soon destroy the lining of the stomach, 1 setting up serioni forms of indigestion, and so jiaraljrte ths bowels tha t they xw ; fuse to act onleea forced by strong 1 purgatives. “ '

Munyon’s Paw Paw Pills are a totals I to the stomach, liver and nerves, ^ e y ! invigorate instead of weaken; they ea- I rich tbe blood Instead o t Impoverish | it; they enable the stomach to ^ t all j the nourishment from food tha t is p u t ] Into it.

These pills contain no calomel, no dope; t h ^ are soothing, healing and ■tifflulating. They school the bowels to act without phyiie.
