TAP REOPENED.

Doable appeals in the tap
line cases, in which the Commerce
Court derided against the Interstate
Commerce Commission, came up for
hearing in the supreme court of the
United States today. The govern-
hopes for an early decision in
Hie cases, owing to their importance
and the fact that they have been
dragging through the courts for
years.
tap line eases involve tilt
rights and privileges of sawmill rail-
roads in the southwest particular-
Arkansas, Louisiana. Missouri an I
Texas, running back from trunk rail-
loads to lumber camps. The
at issue is whether such lines
be considered as common carriers
and be subject to the same
as to rates and other matters
as the regular railroads. The de-
of the lumber business In
various sections of the country is
said to depend in large measure up-
on the outcome of the litigation.

Much la written of the terrors of

terrors of the wars of old. Yet It Is
doubtful if war today makes greater
demands on human courage than war

Consider a stand-up infantry fight
in the days of the revolution After
the preliminary and long-
distance musketry practice, the two
regiments toward each other
in close ranks.
frequently at thirty yards, there was
a halt, a smashing volley, and then
a bayonet charge through the smoke.

To Convert Gypsies.
In a never-ending, tide, a
million gypsies surge to and fro across
Europe. From east to west they mi-
grate at the beginning of summer, and
west to east in the fall. Nowhere are
they wanted, everywhere are they
eyed with suspicion, but still every
year they wander, and the authorities
of the countries they cross dread their fetch
coming and are relieved when they go.
There is always trouble at the
frontiers. Here the wanderers are
stopped, questioned and often
as vagrants. Hut there is
to do but finally let them go, and
they invariably return next year.
An effort to aid and protect these
gypsies Is being made by a Swiss
clergyman, Rev. II He has
organized a one of the
poses of which Is to Instruct the gyp-
in the Christian religion, for
nomads are all pagans.
