Super-education. I'm a negro and have no business with a collegé education.” This question and answer propounded and replied to by Louis O. Graves, a graduate of Yale, was the climax of what Judge Taylor of the court of eriminal correction | today declared was the most unique defense he had ever encountered. Graves was charged with forging a check. He acted as his own aitorney, called himself to the stand and conducted his own examination. After testifying that he had served terms in the penitentiaries at Jefferson City, Mo., and Chester, Tll, and that he had been’an inmate of five Insane asylums, he asked himself: “Did you ever try to commit suleide?” “Five times,” was the response to him- self. “I jumped from the third tler of ceils and cracked my skull. I took polson In Central police station. I tried to hang my- self In the penitentiary and twice 1 tried to kill myself when I felt a desire to com- mit crime coming over me.” Graves said that he had no recolleetion of the forgery with which he s now charged and wpe remanded to jail to await possible action by the grand jury.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, April 13.—(Special Tele- braska, Towa, Wyoming, South Dakota and ifter-mountain states are greatly interested, will be taken care of by the senate tariff bil. Already interest in these three great products has been at work with a view of ameliorating conditions under the Payne and Aldrich bills, and after a canvass of the senate it seems fair to predict that the ,wool schedule will be nearly that of the Dingley blil. ¥ The coal schedule wil be a madification of the Dingley bil', with possibly 4) per cent ad valorem, the admiplsfrative fsa. tures of this schedule being eliminated This means that that element of slack which enters into the coal situation of the | intermountain eountry with particutir ref- |erence to Wyoming, Montana and Utah, will be ignored and that a flat ad valorem duty of 4 per ctnt will be charged, as against the present duty of 67 per cent, which includes an administrative charge. If this ad valorem duty of 4 per cent on coals from the intermountain sect'ons of the United States, and which necessarily affects coals from West Virginia and states bordering thereon, be written into the bill, it will be satisfactory to coal operators In the Wyoming basin and elsewhere. Tils rate will keep out coals from Canada and the Crow-Nest country. On the question of hides, cattlemen now In Washington predict the senate will put 10 per cent adlorem duty on this product. While being a decrease from the Dingley bill it will be satisfactory to growers of hides. Secretary Wilson stated the other duy to the committee of cattle growers, that the ratio of hide production was as five to seven, packers producing five- twelfths and farmers or ‘Independents,” seven-twelfths of the hide output in the United States. With this showing before the seante 1t 18 belleved that Instead of hides gowing on the free list, a compromise will be affected of 10 per cent advalorem dut With wool, coal and hides protected {even at minimum,” sald Mr. Hobbs of Lander, today, “V yoming and states In its immediate section will more than ac- complish In the next ten years, which scems to be about the life of a tariff bill, what they have accomplished In the past.” Kidnapers Still Evade Officers No Trace of Parents Who Abducted Lucile Colehourne Can Be Found, MARSHALLTOWN, Ta.. April 13.—(Spe- cfal.)—Although the sheriff and his depu- tles have been scouring the country for the last thirty-six hours for Mr. and Mrs, H. G.

From there the tiree left in an automobile. It has been Impossible for the officers to learn in what direction the car went, or whether It left the city or who the car belonged to. It is believed that the couple are headed toward Canada with the child, but this belef is not grounded on any known facts. The seizure of the child was the most sensational of a se- ries of encounters, most of which have been In the district and supreme court, {in which the other and the girl's guardian, F. R.

The contracts for the delivery of heavier- than-alr machines, held by the Wright brothers of Dayton, O., who are now in Rome, and by A. M. Herring of New York, have not yet been fulfilied in every detall. Orville Wright, previous to the accident to his machine, made numer- ous flights, some of which fulfilied cer- taln of the conditions specitied in his con- tract, but none of them was official. He will have to make one flight for endurance, remalning in the air for two hours and an- other for speed. It s generally acknowl- edged that the Wright brothers, barring accident, can meet these conditions suc- cessfully. Although A. M. Herring has made a tech- nical dellvery of his aeroplane at Fort Myer, he has not made any public flights He has formed a company with Glenn H Curtls, whose flights in the “June Bug" and other ‘machines belonging to the Aerlal Experiment association, have made him famous in_the world of aeronautles.

Their recom- mendations as to Bishop Kelley's meth- ods and policles were taken up and, while little was accomptished, what few actions were taken were In justification of the bishop.
