Occupying first place on the cal tndar of events for the week will be the assembling of Congress in extra ordinary session Monday. The busi ness of the session will be confined to tariff revision.' Important changes in the existing tariff schedules are certain. The multitude and diver sity of the interests affected by the proposed revision of the tariff ren ders the task a difficult one, but lead ing men of both parties are of the opinion that the work will be accom plished and the session ended within ten weeks. The House Ways and Means Committee, upon which de olves the duty of framing the bill! has gone about its work tinder the impetus of a very strong public opinion favoring tariff reductions and with the moral influences of a de termined President. President Taft expects to go to New York Thursday to speak at a meeting to be held in Carnegie Hall on the afternoon of that day in mem ory of Grover Cleveland- Mayor McClellan will preside over the ex ercises and in addition to the Presi dent the speaker will be Chief Jus tice Fuller of the Pnited States Su preme Court and Governor Hughes of New York.

At the time of the General Slocum disaster in New York Miss McCann, then only a little girl, was convalescing from scarlet fever on North Brother is land, near where the ill-fated steam er was burned. The river was filled with human beings and the young girl, disregarding her own illness, waded into the water and rescued nine children. The opening of the great live stock show in Fort Worth, the Standard Oil rebate trial in Chicago, the Cooper trial now nearing its end in Nashville, the progress of the Pope's illness and the negotiations for a settlement of the differences between the coal miners and opera tors are other matters that will fig ure more or less conspicuously in the news of the week. STUPID SUPERSTITION Filippino Under Sentence Of Death, Object Of Solicitude. MANILA, March 11. An unusual scene took place at Bilibid, the mili tary prison today, when Governor General Smith made a personal call on Papa Isio, the black Pope of the egros island tribesmen, who is con-1, , . ,. . . , fined there under the sentence of death. The constabulary are urging Governor General Smith to commute Isio's sentence to life imprisonment, because they are certain that the mo ment he is executed one of his fol lowers claiming to be him resurrected will start trouble in the mountains of Negros. The officers of the consta bulary declare that if he is kept in prison where the members of his occasionally can see him undergoing punishment for his crime it will have a deterrent effect upon future dis orders among the tribesmen. Isio, who seems to believe that he posses ses supernatural powers, told Gover nor Smith that he warred against Spain but not the United States. He denied the murders and plantation de structions of which he stands convict ed. Act Quickly if yon have sudden chill if you have e alio, cramp or diairhcea don't wait a min ute.

MAMMOTH iemmencing &e BON-TON WQULDPAY BI6 SALARY TO THE MAYOR NAME $125,000 YEARLY AS RIGHT PRICE IN NEW YORK CITY. NEW YORK, March 12. In order to obtain for the office of Mayor of New York, a man of sufficient merit and honesty to carry out the changes proposed in the new city charter, promoters of an independent move ment for the election of a "Purifield" municipal ticket proposed to pay him n annual salary of $125,000 a year, or for the term of four years a bonus of $300,000 over and above the regu lar salary of the office. It is sug gested that the difference be raised by popular subscription. A state ment issued by those active in the movement, who as yet designate themselves merely as tax payers, says in part: "Such a man for such a job should be found among the younger genera tions of the 'Captains of Industry.' In commercial life such a man could count his income in the hundreds of thousands. Therefore let twenty five public spirited citizens pledge themselves anonymously so far as the public is concerned to contri bute every year during the next four years an amount sufficient to produce in the aggregate the sum of $125,000 a year. If anyone accepts this unique offer and is elected he must agree not to be a candidate for reelection nor par ticipate in any partisan politics dur ing his incumbency Backers of the plan assert that radical measures are necessary because of almost six years of the worst government that any HANDICAPPED This is the Case With Many Astoria People.

The back aches at night, preventing refreshing a : - ,l. : . : i , , . ,lame P'asters and liniments may give relief but cannot reach the cause. To eliminate the pains and aches you must cure the kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kid neys and cure them permanently. Can you doubt Astoria evidence? Wm. Joyce, 412 Duane Street, As toria, Ore., says: "At the time I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, I was enduring a great deal of suffer ing. The secretions from my.kidneys were so frequent as to cause me a great deal of annoyance and as a re sult of not getting my proper rest at night, I would arise in the morning tired and weak. The slightest exer tion caused severe pains through my back and hips and though I tried liniments and plasters, I did not re ceive relief. At last my attention was drawn to Doan's Kidney Pills and I procured a box at Charles Rogers & Son's drug store. They entirely cured me and I am now in good health." For sale by all dealers.
