Washington, D. C The Fordney
emergency tariff bill, broadened to in

stead of the limited number as the
measure passed the house, was ap
proved Saturday by the senate fi
nance committee, which voted to re
port it out Monday.
Seven amendments wre added, mak
ing ten in all. No provisions of the
original bill, however, were removed
and rates on the major products wqre
left intact. Opponents of the bill join
ed with the authors of amendments
and forced the acceptance of most of
them despite opposition from the bill's
defenders.
The amendments made a part of the
measure by committee action includ
ed:
Sugar, $2.13 the hundred pounds un
til the retail price reaches 10 cents a
pound.
Frozen meats of all kinds, 2 cents a
pound; all other meats 25 per cent ad

cents a pound.
Tobacco, 'Sumatra wrappers and fill
ers, $2.85 a pound; stemmed Sumatra,
$3.50 a pound,
Butter and cheese and their sub
stitutes, 8 cents a pound instead of 6
cents, provided in amendment accept
ed Friday.
The length of long staple cotton on
which the tariff will be effective was
reduced from 1 inches to 1 inches,
the duty remaining at 7- cents a pound
as the bill passed the house.
Cattle and sheep to be- used for
breeding purposes were exempted
from the duty on imported animals.
Rice to be used in manufacture of
canned goods was exempted from the
tariff of 2 cents a pound levied in the
house bill.
Attempts of several opponents of
the bill to load it down with amend
ments dealing with extraneous sub
jects were unsuccessful.

of 15 per cent ad valorem on im

tariff would yield $0,000,000 annually
in revenue and would not increase tho
lumber cost to American consumers.
There was no attempt to change the
life of the bill's provisions 10

into shape before tho expiration of the

CHAPTER XI Continued.

We were early .risers at that time,
and the whole brigade was usually un
der arms at the first flush of dawn.
One morning it was the sixteenth of
June we had just formed up, and
General Adams had ridden up to give
some order to Colonel lteynell, within
a musket-length of where I stood,
when suddenly they both stood staring
along the Brussels road. None of us
dared move our heads, but every eye
In the regiment whisked round, and
Ihere we saw an oflicef, with the eoek
ailp of a general's aido-de-enuip, thun
dering down t lie road as bard as b
great dapple-gray horse could carry
him. He bent Ids face over its mane,
and flogged nt Its neck with the slack
of the bridle, as though be rode for
very life.
"Hullo, Reynell," says the general.
"Tills begins to look like business.
What do you make of it?" They both
cantered their horses forward, and
Adams tore open the dispatch which
the messenger handed to him. The en
velop had not touched the ground be
fore he turned, waving the letter over
his bead as If it bad been n saber.
"Dismiss !" he cried. "General pa
rade and march in half an hour."
Then, in an Instant, all was buzz nnd
hustle, and the news on every lip. Na
poleon had crossed the frontier the
day before, had pushed the Prussians
before him, and was already deep in
the country to the east of us with a
hundred nnd fifty thousand men.
Away we scuttled to gather our things
together and have our breakfast, and
in an hour we had marched off nnd left
Ath and tho Dender behind lis forever.
There was good need for haste, for
the Prussians had sent no news to
Wellington of what was doing, and
though he had rushed from Brussels
nt the first whisper of it, like a good
old mastiff from Its kennel, it was hard
to see how be could come up in time
to help the Prussians.
It was a bright, warm morning, zrA
as the brigade trumped down the broad
Belgian road the dust rolled up from
It like the smoke of a battery. I tell
you that we blessed the man that plant
ed the poplars along the sides, for
their shadow was hotter than drink to
us. Over across the fields, both to the
right and 1 lie loft, were other roads,
one quite close and the other a mile,
or more from us. A column of Infan
try was marching down the near one,
nnd it was a fair race between us, for
we were each walking for nil we were
worth. There was such n wreath of
dust round them that we could only
see the gun barrels and the bearskins
breaking out here and there, with the
head and shoulders of a mouiTted offi
cer coming out above the cloud, anil
the flutter of the colors. It was a bri
gade of tlie Guards, but we could not
tell which, for we had two of them
with us In the campaign. On the far
road there was also dust nnd to spare.
but through It there flashed every nowv
and then a long twinkle of brightness,
like a hundred silver beads threaded
in a line, nnd Ihe breeze brought down
such a snarling, 'clanging, clashing
kind of nmsie as I had never listened
to. If I had been left to myself it
would have been long before I knew
what it was, but our corporals and
sergeants were all old soldiers, nnd I
had one trudging along with his hal
bert at my elbow, who was full of
precept nnd advice.-
"That's heavy horse," said he. "You
see that double twinkle. That means
they have helmet as well sis cuirass.
It's the Royals or the F.tmisklllens or
the Household. You can hear their
cymbals and kettles. The French heav
ies are too good for us. They have ten
to our one. and good men, too. You've
got to shoot at their faces, or else
at their horses. Mind you that when
you see them coining, or else you'll
find a four-foot sword stuck through
your liver to teach you better. Hark I
hark ! hark ! there's the old music
again !"
And as he spoke there came the
low grumbling 'of a cannonade away
somewhere to the east of us, deep and
hoarse, like a roar of some blood
daubed beast that thrives on the lives
of men. At the same instant- there
was shouting of "lleh 1 heh ! heh !" from
behind, and somebody .run red, "Let the
guns get through!" Looking back, I
!saw the rear companies split suddenly
in two and hurl themselves down on
either side into the ditch, while six
cream-colored horses, galloping two
and two, with their bellies to the
ground, came thundering through the
gap with a tine twelve-pound gun
whirlings and creaking behind them.
Following were another nnd another,
four-nnd-twonty In all, flying past us
with such a din nnd clatter, the blue
coated men clinging on to the guns
and Ihe tumbrils, the drivers cursing
and cracking their whips, the manes
fying. the mops and buckets clanking,
and the whole air tilled with the heavy
rumble and the Jingling of chains.
There was a roar from the ditches and
a shout from the gunners, and we saw

a rolling gray cloud before us, with a
score of busbies breaking through the
shadow. Then we closed up again,
while the growling ahead of us grew
louder and deeper than ever.
"There's three batteries there," said
the sergeant. "There's Bull's and
Webber Smith's, but the other Is new.
There's some more on ahead of us,
foe here's the track of a nine-pounder,
and the others were all twelves. Choose
a twelve if you want to get hit, for
a nine mashes you up, but a twelve
snaps you like a carrot" and he went
on to tell about the wonderful wounds
that he had seen until my blood ran
like Iced water In my veins, and you
might have rubbed all our faces In
pipeclay and we should have been no
whiter. "Aye, you'll look sicklier yet
when you get a hatful of grape Into
your tripes," said he; and then, as I
saw some of the old .soldiers laughing,
I began to understand that this mnn
was trying to frighten us, so I began
to laugh also, and the others as well,
but It was not a very hearty laugh
either.
The sun was almost above us when
we stopped at a little place called Hal,
where there Is an old pump from
which I drew and drank a shako full
of water and never did a mug of
Scotch ale taste as sweet. More guns
passed us here, and Vivian's hussars,
three regiments of them, smart men
with bonny brown horses, a treat to
the eye. The noise of the cannons was
louder than ever now, and it tingled
through my nerves just as it had done
years before when, with Edie by my
side, I had seen the merchant ship
fight with the privateers. It was so
loud now that It seemed to me that
the battle must be going on just be
yond the nearest wood, but my friend
the sergeant knew better.
"It's twelve to fifteen miles off," said
he. "you may be sure that the general
knows that we are not wanted, or we
should not be resting here at Hal."
What he said proved to be true, for
a minute later down came the colonel
with orders that we should stack arms
nnd bivouac where we were, and there
we stayed all day, while horse and
foot and guns, English, Dutch tfnd
Hanoverians, were streaming through.
The devil's music went on till evening,
sometimes rising into a roar, some
times sinking Into a grumble, until
about eight o'clock In the evening It
stopped altogether. We were eating
our hearts out, as you may think, to
know what it all meant, but we knew
that what the Duke did would be for
the best, so we just waited In patience.
Next day the brigade remained at
Hal In the morning, but about midday
came an order from the Duke, and we
pushed on once more until we came to
a village called Braine something, and
there we stopped, nnd time, too, for a
sudden thunderstorm came on and a
plump of rnin that turned all the roads
and the fields Into bog and mire. We
got Into the barns at this village for
shelter, and there we found two strag
glers, one from a kilted regiment and
the other a man of the German legion,
who bad a tale to tell that was as
dreary as the weather.
Boney had thrashed the Prussians
the day before, and our fellows had
been sore put to It to hold iheir own
ngnlnst Ney, but had beaten him off at
last. It seems an old, stale story to
you now, but you cannot think how we
scrambled around those two men In
the barn, and pushed and fought Just
to catch a word of what they said, and
bow those who had heard were In turn
mobbed by those who had not. We
laughed and cheered and groaned all
In turn, as we were told how the Forty
fourth had "received cavalry In line,
how the Dutch-Belgians had fled, and
how the Black Watch had taken the
lancers into their square, and then hnd
killed them at their leisure. But the
lancers had had the laugh on their
side when they crumpled up the Sixty
ninth and carried off one of the colors.
To wind It all up, the Duke was In re
treat. In order to keep In touch with
the Prussians, and It was rumored that
he would take up his ground and fight
a big battle Just at the very place
where we had been halted.
And soon we saw that this rumor
was true, for the weather cleared
toward evening, and we were all out
on the ridge to see what we could see.
It was such a bonny stretch of corn
and grazing land, with the crops just
half green and half yellow, and fine
rye as high as a man's shoulder. A
scene more full of peace you could not
think of, and look where you would
over the low, curving, corn-covered
hills, you could see the little village
steeples pricking up their spires among
the poplars. But slashed right across
this pretty picture was a long trail
of marching men, some red, some
green, some blue, some black, algzag
glng over the plain and choking the
roads, one end so close that we could
shout to them as they stacked their
muskets ou the ridge at our left, and
the other end lost among the woods
as far as we could see. And then on
other roads we saw the teams of
horses toiling and the dull gleam of
the guns, and the men straining and
swaying as -they helped t turn the
spokes In the deep, deep mud. As we
stood there regiment after regiment
and brigade after brigade took posi
tion on the ridge, and ere the sun had
set we lay In a line of over sixty thou
sand men, blocking Napoleon's way to
Brussels. But the rain had come
swishing down again, and we of the
Seventy-first rushed oft to our barn
once more, where we had better quar- .
ters than the greater part of our com
rades, who lay stretched in the mud,
with the storm beating upon them,
until the first peep of day.
CHAPTER XII.
The Shadow on the Land.
It was still drizzling In the morning,
with brown, drifting clouds and a
damp, chilly wind. It was a queer
thing for me as I opened my eyes to
think that I should be In a battle that
day, though none of us ever thought
it would be such a one as It proved
to be. We were up and ready, how
ever, with the first light, and as we
threw open the doors of our barn we
heard the most lovely music that I
ever listened to playing somewhere in
the distance. We all stood In clusters
hearkening to It, it was so sweet and
Innocent and sad-like. But our ser
geant laughed when he saw how it
had pleased us all.
"Them are the French bands," said
he; "and If you come out here you'll
see what some of you may not live to
see again."
Out we went the beautiful music
still sounding in our ears, and stood
on a rise just outside the barn. Down
below, at the bottom of the slope,
about half a musket shot from us, was
a snug tiled farm with a hedge and a
bit of an apple orchard. All round It
a line of men In red coats and high
fur hats were working like bees,
knocking holes In the wall and barring
up the doors.
"Them's the light companies of the
Guards," said the sergeant. "They'll
hold that farm while one of them can
wag a finger. But look over yonder,
and you'll see the campflres of the
French."
We looked across the valley at the
low ridge upon the farther sideand
saw a thousand little yellow points of
flnme, with the dark smoke wreathing
up slowly in the heavy air. There was
another farmhouse on the farther side
of the valley, and as we watched we
suddenly saw a little group of horse
men appear on a knoll beside It and
look across at us. There were a dozen
hussars behind, and In front five men,
three with helmets, one with a long,
straight, red feather in his hat, and
the last with a low cap.
"By God!" cried the sergeant.
"That's him I That's Boney, the one
with the gray horse. Aye, I'll lay a
month's pay on It."
I strained my eyes to see him, this
man who had cast that great shadow
over Europe which darkened the na
tions for five-and-twenty years, and
which had even fallen across our out-of-the-world
little sheep farm, and
had dragged ns all-rmyself, Edie and
Jim out of the lives that our folk had
lived before us. As far as I could see
he was a dumpy, square-shouldered
kind of man, and he held his double
glasses to his eyes with his elbows
spread very wide out on . each side.
I was still staring when I heard the
catch of a man's breath by my side,
and there was Jim, his eyes glowing
like two coals and his face thrust over
my shoulder.
"That's he, Jock," he whispered.
"Yes, that's Boney," said I.
"No, no ; it's he. This De Lapp or
De Llssac, or whatever his devil's
name Is. It Is he."
Then I saw him at once. It was the
horseman with the high red feather In
his hat. Even at that distance I could
have sworn to the slope of his shoul
ders and the way he carried his head.
I clapped my hand upon Jim's sleeve,
for I could see that his blood was
boiling at the sight of the man, and
that he was ready for any madness.
But at that moment Bonaparte seemed
to lean over and say something to
De Llssac, and the party wheeled and
dashed away, while there came the
bang of a gun and a white spray of
smoke from a battery along the ridge.
At the same Instant the assembly was
blown in our village, and we rushed
for our arms and fell In. There was a
burst of firing all along the line, and
we thought that the battle had begun,
but it came really from our fellows
cleaning their pieces, for their prim
ing was In some danger of being wet
from the damp nlg"-.t.
(TO BE CONTINUED.)
Early Irish History.
In the earliest time of which there
Is any record, Ireland was Inhabited
by tribes of the great Celtic family,
to which belonged the ancient Brit
ons of the larger Island, and the Gauls
of the country now known as France.
Each tribe had Its chief, and after a
time a supreme monarch came to the
front One of the most famous of
these was Brian, who overthrew the
Invading Danes in the battle of Clon
tarf, fought In the year 1014 near Dub
lin. He was slain In his tent at the
close of the fight. After his death
the supreme monarchy was often In
complete abeyance, misrule and an
archy widely prevailed and the ancient
form of society was largely broken up.
It Is said that Roderick O'Connor, son
of Turlough, was the last of the mon
archs of Celtic Ireland. From that
time the influence of Anglo-Normans
Increased.
