' Evtfs: h t Western Members Make Gala Event Out of Debate on Appointment of Commission of Enquiry and Liber - cis See Untold Dangers In Finding Out the Truth About Tariff Needs —C. M. A. Cry Again. Ottawa, Feb. p.—The man of straw which the Opposition set. up Wed- nesday in regard to the appointment .of a tariff commission, only to demol- ish it ;With sledge hammer blows, was again made to do service yesterday, but the blows ;Were the blows of teak hammers. Even Hon. Frank Olivier, who is usually worth hear_ •.g, stoop- ed to a mere tirade of insinuations about the commissioners laying wires for the Government to "deliver the goods" to the Canadian Manufactur- ers' Association for their support in the election. The resolution was adopted by a vote of 104 to 52. W. S. Middlebro (North Grey), who renewed the debate, assailed the ar- guments of Mr. Guthrie (South Well- ington). The latter had refuted the objections of the Opposition to the proposed tariff board in his own speech. For some years back Mr. Gu- thrie had declared he had felt the lack of accurate statistical information. The Opposition talked, of taking the tariff out of politics, but the way Mr. Guthrie proposed to do this was by taking officials out of the Department, men who were directly under the eye of the Minister, to make these inves- tigations. In the late reciprocity negotiations, the Canadians had no satisfactory in- formation, Tillie every move of the Americans was le d on official defi- nite information. Hon. Frank Oliver charged that the object of the Government in the ap- pointment of a tariff commission, was to find positions at fat salaries for their friends. The business of the commission was to find excuses for increases in the tariff. The public was being humbugged into the belief that information was being gathered in the public interest, whereas it was really being gathered in special in- terests at the public expense. ' The commission, he said, would lay the wires through which the power would be turned on a little later to "deliver the goods" to the "interests to which the Government owed its existence." If the Government had a mandate from the people to change the tariff, let them change it, seeking their in- formation as best they could, but not by means of "miscalled commissions to enable them to shirk the responsi- bility of their policy and its results." Arthur Meighen (Portage la Prairie) branded Mr. Oliver's effort as a series of "carefully prepared. sophisms." He was pretty hard put to for an argu- ment, and this was all he could find. The Opposition claimed that there was no mandate for the bill, but they had nowhere assumed that no pur- pose was to be served by it and that that purpose was not a good one. There was no difference in prin- ` ciple, though there was in the facility with which the work could be done, between gathering information by a commission divorced to a certain ex- tent from the influence of the Mims - ter and. gathering. it by Departmental officials directly under the eye of the Minister. A. S. Goodeve (Kootenay) declared' that the Opposition paid a high tom -1 pliment to the Minister of Finance in that they had found no fault with his bill itself, but only founded their op- position on "certain sinister motives which they seemed to have feared would in some occult way be driven into this bill and the reports of its commissioners." F. B. Carvell (Carleton, N.B.) de- scribed the manufacturers' associa- tion as "the originators of the scheme," the dictators of the scope and method of investigation of the tar- iff commission. The president of the C. M. A. had said that that associa- tion "could view with equanimity the appointment of a tariff commission." J. A. M. Aikens (Brandon) compar- ed the Opposition to Don Quixote, who "mount upon their disiccated steeds, and brandishing their paper shields," rush upon the phantom windmills of their imagination. In refutation of Mr. Carvell, he de- clared that the capitalization of a company will be considered a factor in determining the Dost of production. If combires had arisen it was because there had not been a scientific adjust- ment of the tariff. W. M. Martin (Regina), Alfred Thompson (Yukon), and Thomas Mac - Nutt (Saltcoats) also spoke. f You Do, Why Don't You Make Then'; Yourseif7—It's Dead Easy. Many a Mann says that he would be glad to do chores about the house, to tr im the grass or weed the garden if e bad overalls, The trouble is that when lie ' visbe$ o wear overalls the stores are closed and be cannot buy them. I Wonder that men do not make them for them: selves. To provide a pattern you must have, an outilise or perspective plan of your; contour from the belt line down to the ankles. This may be obtained by }sit- ting in wet clay and, on arising, pour. Ing plaster of Paris in the impression. When this hardens lift the mold, lean it against the wall and obtain meas. urements with a tapeline. Another way is to dust talcum powder on the carpet until it is thickly coated. ',Chet; sit down on the talcum powder and carpet, thus removing the talcum from the floor where you have been. Then cut around the outlinesof that imprese sion with a sharp knife, remove the carpet so detached, and you have a pattern for one side of the overalls. Purchase severalyards of denim, and cut it into the shape indicated by, either pattern you have now obtained. Make two sets of these pieces and sew;. them edge to edge.

I - good Roads Advocates Have interview Toronto, Feb..9 --, . deputation that. waited on the CaosgrgInut yesterday. tourge co-operation in the develop- ment of good Toads, was cordially re- ceived and departed well satisfied. Premier Borden said that the estab- lishment of good roads was primarily a matter•, of provincial jurisdiction. Therefore, it was obvious that the Government had a genuine interest in I the subject in proposing, as it did to make grants for the puxpose. The condition of roads in Canada was not what should be expected. The civili- zation of a people was often indicated in its highways. The supplementary estimates would provide grants to the various pro- vinces for the, purpose,• but he inti- mated plainly that the 'inoney would be for construction, and net for main- tenance, In doing the former, the Government would exceed the B.N.A.. Act, but doing nothing more than its duty. Details of method of outlay had not yet been determined, but it would be by co-operation with the provinces. There were some 300 delegates and they represented various organizations in Ontario and Quebec interested in the improvement of Canadian high- ways. Among the organizations repre- sented were the Ontario Good Roads • Association, the Quebec and Miami Highways Association, the Interna- tional Highways Association, Toron- to, Ottawa and other Boards of Trade. Main Johnson, secretary of the On- tario Motor League, presented the views of that organization "This is no time," he said for half way measures of paltry appropria- tions. A great change is coming in the whole system of transportation. The importance of roads compared with railways will increase as the automo- bile continues on its rapid develop- ment. Canada has been lamentably baekward in her ordinary highways." Their Use on an important Scale Dates From 1876. The first experimental philosopher to discover that electric light could bet produced by a dry battery was Sin Humphry Davy, who in 1810 exhibited) a light three inches long, between care bor points, before the Royal society eQ London. But no commercial value was attached to the use of electricity as and illuminant until more than half a eerie tury later. The Centennial exhibition., held in Philadelphia in 1876, really marks the era of our present form of electric light, though electric lightly had been in use abroad prior to that time. The exhibition of models and practical demonstrations of electric! lights at Philadelphia in 1876 attracted) the attention of scientists and capital- ists in this country, and the first ine candescent lamps and the first arcs, system were put to practical use in a small way .in 1878. The Brush ard' light gained favor in the beginning as the most adaptable for street light- ing, ighting, and Cleveland, 0., the home of Charles Francis Brush, the inventor„ was the initial American city to adopt the arc system for street lighting. Since 1878 both the Brush .arc sys- tem and the Edison incandescent sys' tem have developed.—Marc M. Rey- nolds In Moody's Magazine. • Halcyon Days. "Alcyone, or Halcyon, the daughter, of Aeolus, married • Ceyx," said the Latin professor. "Ceps was drowned. and Alcyone on learning of his fate threw herself Into the sea. The gods• were moved by the tragedy of the young lovers. They brought them back to life in the form of halcyon. or kingfishers. and they decreed that for the seven days from Dec. 22 to Dec: 20` the, sea ishouid remain taint while the sea birds- built their nests upon it. Those seven days, the last of the year, are therefore called hal- cyon days—days of tranquillity, a kind of very late Indian summer. Here hi 1 America we have no real halcyon • days, but the myth of Alcyone and Ceyx comes from the, Mediterranean. and in that blue and gold' region it is a fact that the year is ushered out by a procession of still, mild, splendid days—silent and glittering days of hal- cyon weather." -Washington Post. Lifting a Child. "I wish," said the woman who hest children of her own, "that women would understand the delicate mech- enism of a child. How would they like a giant to come along and suddenly 'drag them from the ground by one 'arm, as I have seen so many people dd to children? When you're lifting a'+ child lift it evenly by both arms or from the waist. Don't yank It up by a grab at one wrist and then wonder why it cries.

Berlin, Feb. 9. -It is hoped and confidently believed here that the German -American notes setting forth the views of the two Governments re- garding conditions in China will lead to formal declarations by all the in- terested powers on the same lines. Germany from the beginning of the disorders in China has taken the same stand as the United States and has expressed her accord with the sug- gestion for a common policy in China which Secretary of State Knox has submittedseveral times to the pow- ers. The latest steps were taken on German initiative, but the credit be- longs equally to the Washington State Department. Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador at Washing- ton, acted in full accord with Secre- tary of State Knox in submitting the original German note which elicited the American reply. The newspapers here made a fea- ture of the notes' yesterday. The Kreuz Zeitung sees in them a warning that certain powers which are seeking special advantages in China must count on joint German -American op- position to their plans. Senator Proposes Cure. Washington, Feb. '9.—The ratifica- tion of the, rending arbitration trea- ties with. Great Britain and France, though "lame and important as an obligation to peacefully settle dis- putes,'' was. urged before the Senate yesterday by Senator Works of Cali- fornia. He declared that if the repre- sentatives of the three great powers had intendedto exclude from the terms of the agreement very dispute that a nation was likely to go to war about, it could not have done it more effectively._ Senator Works advocated an alli- ance between the great powers to os- tracize commercially and otherwise any nation that went to war and to bind themselves not to increase their armaments. Port Maitland as Canal Entrance. Dunnville, Feb. 9.—The Dunnville Board of Trade has appointed a com- mittee to prepare sketches, plans and estimates for the purpose of urging on the Government the advisability of selecting Port Maitland as the en- trance for an enlarged Welland Canal. When the data has been ,secured it is the intention to lay it before Hon. Frank Cochrane, Minister of Railways and Canals, and urge that a survey be made to corroborate the view so strongly held here, that the Port Mait- lend entrance should be selected as the best and cheapest, and one that will involve not only least cost for maintenance : during the entire life of the canal. Money Trust To Be Probed. Washington, Feb. 9.—An investiga- tion of the "money trust" was order - d b the Democrats of the House in e y caucus Wednesday night after a plan for a special committee had been de- feated, 115 to 66. The caucus then in- structed the standing committee of the House on banking and currency, judiciary, interstate commerce and elections, to proceed with the enquiry. Sharp eriticism el : William J. Bryan for his imputations that the banking and currency committee of the House leaned toward the financial interests culminated in a resolution expressing confidence in the committee.

Monroe visited her, and an interview occurred ;Which was witnessed by a nephew, whet was then a lad of fifteen. "1 had," he says, "been sent to call upon myAunt Ham.. Ilton one afternoon. I found her .in her garden and was there with her, talking when a maf'dservant came from the house with a card, It was the card of James. Monroe. She read the name and stood holding the card; much perturbed. Her voicesank, and she spoke very low as she always did when she was angry. 'What has that man come to see me fort escaped from her. 'Why, Aunt Hamilton,' said I, 'don't you -knoiv it's Mr. Monroe, and be s been president, and he Is vis- iting here now in the neighborhood and has been very much made of and invited everywhere, and. so—t suppose he has come to call and pay his re- spects to you?' After a moment's hes- itation 'I will see him,' she said. "The maid went back to the . house. Illy aunt followed, walking rapidly, I after her. As she entered the parlor Monroe rose. She stood in the middle of the room facing him. She did not ask him to sit down. He bowed and, addressing her formally, made her rather a set speech—that it was many years since they had met, that the lapse of time brought its softentng in- fluences, that they both were nearing the grave, when past differences could be forgiven, and forgotten—in short, from his point of view a very nice, conciliatory, well turned little speech. She answered, still standing and look.: Ing at him: 'Mr. Monroe, if you have come to tell me that you repent, that you are sorry, very sorry, for the mis- representations and the slanders and ' the stories you circulated against my dear husband—if you have come to say this, I understand it. But otherwise no lapse of time, no nearness to the grave, makes any difference.' She stopped speaking. Monroe turned, took up his hat and left the room." In this connection it may be said that the oft repeated story of the meeting of Mrs. Hamilton and Aaron Burr many years later on an Albany steamboat is a fiction, but it was prob' ably suggested by the Monroe incident.
