Just tor fun after the saventh inning w irh the Xiles -Mich, basefball team Sunday when the score was already even t one in favor of the Clipper?, Jimmie M'ddieton and Carl Borr changed positions, and played just ai good a bcfore.keepiwg the visitors, away from second na sei after the change had been made. Middleton had never caught behind the hat before, and reirhcr hid Born eveir appeared in the box. Nevertheless the new Lattery tempted the visitors on some curves, and fanned out three. Tebay allowed the only score far the visitors Sunday, by muffing an- easy fly in center tield. The game should have been a shut out, with as- marry scenes for the loca's as tfhey desired to run in. The latter half of the game was a joke fcr the locals, and they tcyed with the Miles aggregation throughout. To give the game (by innings would be a waste of space. U. B.

Hdrophobia js in reality so rare tnd so terrifying that its symptoms ard treatment are little understood. As a matter of fact, the commonly accepted expression of madness in a ticg i often misleading. The real mad dog does not -hun water, as it is On the contrary, mad dogs often rush to the water and drink eagerly, if they are able to s,vallow. The mad (iog does not froih at the mouth; it tlocs not .run amuck, snapping, at everything in its path. What, then, are the indications of a mad dog? To t.aose familiar with a given dug, the surest symptom and the r,ne which should excite the closest attention, is a distinct and unaccountable cior.ge in the dog's disposition a staid dog becoming excitable and a frisky one dull. That condition does not necessarily mean rabies, but it is MK-'p!ciius, and if, in addition, the dog has troijle in swallowing as though i: seemed to have a bone in its throat "beware! That dog should be instantly tied up,' because if it be rabies it takes but a day or two for ferocious instincts to dtvJop. The unmistakable evidences however, of a dog with rabies is the sticky, whitish saliva which covers the teeth and .shows in drawn lipK Th. eyes glare, are red, the dog has paroxysms of running fury, daring wh-.'ch it barks hoarsely, which alternate with periods of temporary exhaustion.

TARIFF BILL PASSES SENATE

OVER PROTEST OF INSURGENTS

Senator Beveridge Leads Republican Op

position to Measure Aldrich Scores Triumph with Increased Rates.

Washington, July 9. Senator Aidrich forced his tariff bill through the senate last night. The final vote was taken at 11 p. m. It resulted 45 for to ?A against the bill. Ten Republicans voted against the measure. On the final pell senators voted as follows: For. Aldrich, Borah, Bourne, Bradley, Briggs, Bulkeley, Btirnham, Burrows, Burton, Carter, Clark (Wyoming), Crane, Depew, Dick Dixon, Dupont, Elkins, Flint, Frye, Gallingcr, Gam ble, Guggenheim, Hale, Heyourn Johnson, Jones, Kean, Lorimer, ,McCumber, Oliver, Page, Penrose, Per kins, P ies, SccMt Smith (-Michigan), Smoot, Stephenson, Sutherland, Warner, Wetmore, Republic ants; McKnery, Democrat. v Against. Bacon, Bailey, Bankhead, Chamberain, Curbersoni, Daniel, Fletcher, Foster, Frazier, Gore, Hughes, John ston, IMcLaurin, iMartin, 'Money, Newlands, Overman, Owen, Shively, Smith (South Carolina), Stone Talia ferro, Taylor, iSimmons, Democrats; Beveridge, Brown, Burkett, Clapp, Crawford, Cummiwi, DolKver, LaFolette, Nelson, Republicans. The 'Republicans voting against the bill follow: Beveridge, Indiana; Bristow, 'Kansas; Brown and Bur kett, Nebraska; Clappt Nelson, Minnesota; Cummins and Dolliver, Iowa; LaFolllette, Wisconsin, and Crawford of Sörth Dakota. One Democrat, MeEnery, of Louisiana, voted for the bill. To keep the house from getting the bill before it goes to conference, Sen ator AMrich had adopted immediate ly after the vofte was taken a resolution dis agreeing with the house on its- tariff bill and inviting a conference. Bailey protested, but unavailingly. The conferees named 'by Vice President Sherman were Senators Aldrich, Burrows, Penrose, CuKom, Hale, Daniel, Money and Bailey. Senator Aldrich hurled his defiance at President Taft and his challenge :o the bolting Republicans before the vote came on the tariff bill. Aldrich's Defi. "I have seen occasion's," said he, when individuals thought they were wiser than their party. I have seen men change from one party to another party. The Republican party is a party of -majorities and the views of the majority control party policies and government. The senator $rom Indiana does not speak for the Republican party. He has no right tocad the president to support his views. "Those who represent the states that are Repnblican represent the party. The bill earnest out to it letter .every pledge of the RepirSican party. I suggest to the senators who vote against this bill that they cannot attempt to speak for their party without protest from the states that can, however, and will elect a Republican president." Beveridge Protests. Senator Beveridge had charged that the tariff bill was not a revision and was a clear violation of the party dedges made in convention platform and the spoken promises of President faft. He said that the people had be iievexl in the president; that there was to 'le a revision downward of the .ariff and 'that President Taft believed it. "There has not been," declared (Mr. Beveridge. "The people who elected Mr. Taft are protectionists, the president iis a protectionist and we Republicans in Ithis senate who oppose this tariff bill are protectionists and follow our president. Woe be it to any party that break its pledged faith with the people. The secret of success of the Republican party in ihe pa."4 has been that it has kept ts pledges to the people and they have trusted it." Where Bills Differ. The Aldrich bills offers a corporation dividends 'of corporations having profits df more than $5,000 for the graduated income tax carried in the Payne bill. It re-arranges the maximum and minimum features of the bill under which low tariffs can be given nations favoring trade of this country. House experts charge in this re-ar-angement the minimum plan of the Payne bill is dropped and the maximum become si the minimum under fhe Aldrich scheme. Aldrich proposes a customs court of appeals for review of contested customs cases whose, decision shall be final. Aldrich submits a redraft of the international revenue tobacco tax lawä increasing the duties on snuffsv tobaccos and cigars from 20 to 50 per cent. Duty on Hides. The P ayne drawback provision allowed on manufactured articles from imported faw malterial is rejected. Aldrich submits th"c Dingley plan but throws it into conference for modification.

BEVERIDGE

HAS HOPES BELIEVES AN IMPROVED TAR IFF BILL WILL BE PASSED. Indiana Senator Expects Public Senti ment to Influence the Conferees in Congress. Indlamapio'ii'sjuly 13. United States Senator Albert J. Beveridge arrived in Irlikwnaipdis isflioTtly bdfore noon Sat urday and after a terse monpolirical Conference wti'th 'hits dentist, went to iis office in the Newton Claypool building, where he met a number of his friendiS!. "I came back to Ijidianiapolis sole ly to have my teeth worked on and to look at my residence, which Inas just been complet-cKl," said the .s-en-at-Oir an'd tfhen in proof he opened his mouth wide and pointed back to where the bothensome molans were. A ixvv house for Senator Beveridge has just been completed out north in Washington boulevard, where the fores': trees grow, and before he returns to Washington he will go out and' see whether the carpenters dDd their duty. In faict, he will! make his headquarters ct the new house until Iiis return to Washinigtoffi. "I don't know when 1 siiall return to Washington," said tlie senator. "As I said, I came to have my teeth at tended to and have furdier engaigements with the dencist. After a while when the opportunity comes I shall g away 'for a rest." Expects Much Better Bill iSerhaüor Beveridge was rather reluctant about di'scusisin'g the- tariff ijtietion. He expressed the opinion, he w ever, that wiien the bill conies outi of conference it will be a much rr.)tre satisfactory to) those who have desired revision doUvrnvaird. When it was sniggered that the conferees who were at work on the bill were for the most part men who were cjpdsed to revision dowmvatrd, the senator did not change his prediction. While he did mot express 'himself directly on Ihe question, he intimated that he be'eived there wonlkl be hesitancy about plungiing ttve country into tirilier tariff agpitatiori irn.mediate.lj after the present sessiion had closed, "It is hard to tel)," he said in answer to a question, "ju-st how soon the conference committee will get through with the tariff bill. It may be one week or it may be three weeks. He did not think, thcugih, that the matter would be dxsposie'd of .by the conference committee within one week. His Tobacco Amendment. ScnatiOT Beveridge fully expects :hat ithe coniferviikre committee wit retain the amendment he introduced A-hich provides- for a special tax on ..bac?o. He explains that thw tax will bring $9,000,000 or $10,000,000 a 3 ear to the government and that it will require an outlay from no one except the tobacco companies. Since .b? raising of revenue is one of the .'n 'porant things to be considered he .an -see mo reason why the .tobacco tax amentdmenit should not be retain ed. Senator Beveridge is in- ifine humor ui is feeling in excellent health in ipite cf the fact tJiidt he has been lab oring in the grilling special session 'We have held ten hour sessions," he said, "and that means itlnat we ltave .wiked until 2 or 3 o'clock in the m.jrivng. The great amount of work t .'ti aside the session which it has been iA-cesisary to attend to, itogether with the 'discuWiG-ns in session, has made :!:ks isipeciail .session1 on the whole & very bundenome task. It is hard to understand just wltat 'ten hours of work ea'ch day in 'the vitiating air of :he. senate chamlber and' hours and iViurs of work outside means unless ne has been there." When it was suggested to the sen utor that the people back in Indiana had been watching fhis course and the cdiirse of other Republican tariff inurgeiKts, and 'had been approving, he replied: "We saw our oiuty and 'done' it. We were like the Texas cowboy. We did our Iamnest, nnki angels could' do no more." Senator Beveridge said lie knew nothing alxirt the poHitical 'situation in Indiana. In fact, he was not aware ':he:-e was political -situation here. Great Storm in Indiana. The storms which have done immense damage in Illinois and 'Misßonri, reached Indiana 'Monday and swept over the entire central part of the state, "doing great damage to property, especially to crops.
