Wiil Bring Them Down From
Great NortSiwes.
Enemies of the Canadian Treaty Will

it in the Senate-Strong Speeches
Will Be Made in Opposition.
Washington, D. C., May 3.—Canadian
reciprocity is not to be jammed
through the Senate. The fianace coin
j mittee has not formally taken the mat
j ter up, but there is an understanding
that hearings must be given to those
clamoring to present their views. There
is abundant reason for believing these
hearings will be quite protracted. lAud
there twill be members on the commit
tee who will not lend unwilling ears to
any proposition that seeks to delay the
Anal vote on the Underwood bill.
Senators McCumber and Smoot, bo h
of whom are bitterly opposed to the
idea of reciprocity, are credited with
engineering a "farmer’s invasion” that
is about to turn its opposing column
in the direction of the National Cap
ital. The grangers of the great North
west bave deluged their representa
tives in Congress with protests against
the reciprocity agreement. Finally
someone suggested that the farmers
come on to Washington in a body and
appear before the Senate committee
and tell their story.
Now, it is said there are two train
loads coming, and the invasion gives
promise of being the most picturesque
affair ever staged before a Senate com
mittee. Northwestern farmers say the
delegation will be composed exclusive
WOMAN MAT BE UNREASONABLE,
BUI NOT ALWAYS SAFELY SB
It’s the Spice of Life Not to
Be Used at all Times
“You aren’t glad to see me tonight?”
said the six-foot man.
“Y-e-s,” iscaid the distractingly pret
ty little lady, but said it so dubiously
that, of course, he recognized it as
equivolent to a “no.”
“Why aren’e yo uelad to see me to
night?”
"Because.”
“Because what?”
“You know.”
“T do not.”
“I told you over the telephone.”
“Surely you don’t mean because 1
asked you to meet me instead of my
going out to the house for you?”
“Why not?”
“But, dear, didn’t I tell you that 1
had some unexpected work that I pos
itively had to do that kept me later
than usual?”
“I know, but I think it’s perfectly
horried for a girl to have to go to meet
a man.”
“But you know I don’t often ask it of
you, and if you hadn’t come in to-night
vve rwould have missed half the first
act and made everybody get up to get
to our seats.”
‘"Well, I don’t know; but it seems to
me that if a man truly liked and re
[spccted a girl he would manage some
w T ay tc come to her father’s house and
gee her.'’
The six-foe t man looked down at the
distractingly pretty little tormentor,
half exasperated, half puzzled. If this
|had been an unusual occurrence it
: would not have been so trying, but it
I was not. This was only one of the
many exasperating little spasms of
unreasonableness in which the pretty
little lady continually indulged.
For i moment he remembered the
hours of tense straining to get that
work done in time to go at all, and
the scrap of sandwich which had serv
ed iiim for a dinner, and he looked
rather stern, and then, partly because
he was a six-foot man—six foot inside
as well as outside—and partly because
she was distractingly pretty, be simply
said gentiy:
“Well, little girl, we will try not to
lei. it happen again.”
Whereupon the little girl, to reward (
him, smiLed up very sweetly and
tightened ever so lightly the clasp of
her fingers on his coat sleeve, and the
six-foot man, thrilled in every nerve
by that 100-volt current of exquisite j
son. ation which those fingers had ;
power to start, quite forgot he had felt
exasperated even for a moment.
And apparently all was merry as
wedding bells.
But really it wasn’t.
For the little girl was committing
one of Judge Rentoul’s fifteen errors
of life fro mwliich I have quoted—“ Net
to yield in unimportant trifles.”
Just now the six-foot man finds it
worth while to endure this exasperat
ing prettiness, but some day, after they
have been married a year or two, there
will come a time when the current
does not work so spontaneously, and
the smile iwill have become a com
monplace, and then, if the little girl
hasn’t grown wiser, there will surely
be trouble.
Trouble may mean an overharassed
(love changed to Indifferent and cold
courtesy.
Or it may happily mean a quick
revolt that will open the little girl’s

Former Senator Ilansbrough, of North

the parties. Farmers from North Da

Chairman Penrose, of the finance
committee, stands with the President,
and i 3 in favor of the reciprocity agree

tee probably twill be against it. The
measure, as was done on the previous
occasion, probably will be reported
back to the Senate without recommen

has been arranged for the Senate.
There seems to be opposition, how
ever, to taking up any particular meas

carries over the footlights. Her ren
dition of the ‘Boogey-800 T*udy,’ ‘My

in My Airship,” were all clever and
received repeated encores.
“Mr. Galvin is also clever, though his
