OF With the Tariff.
[PeorIa Transcript

The manufacturers of printing paper have
entered into combination to put the price
of that article up beyond what regular profits
warrant. At first they alleged as a reason
for the advance, the scarcity of water by
which their mills we're run. After while
Jupiter Pluvius opened the sluice ways of
Heaven and poured down rain enough to
flood all the streams on which paper mills
ever existed. Then the paper-makers' ring
said 1T was the high price of the raw mater
isl aud chemicals entering into the manu-
facture OF paper. The raw materials are
rags, straw and wood. We have not learned
that either of these articles have advanced
in price to any alarming extent. The people
are Just as ragged as ever, and rags are little
used in the manufacture OF pr1t paper.
There was more straw raised to the square
acre last year than ever before, and there
has been no great destruction of American
forests that we know of. AS for chemicals,
no such advance has occurred as to warrant
the increase in the price OF white paper.
Ten or twelve years ago there was just an
other such combination among the paper
makers. Newspaper men stood il as long es
they could, and then inaugurated move
ment for the repeal of the tariff on i'm
ported paper. That brought the paper
makers to their senses. We are glad to see
that a similar movement is on foot now.
Congressman Fort, of this State, introduced
a bill into the House, Monday, to repeal the
tariff on white paper, and we hope 1T will
be pushed until it becomes q law. The duty
on paper is wholly protective in Its charsc-
ter. Not a pound of foreign paper is i'm
ported when American manufactures are
content with q fair Lying price for their
products. By taking the d1ty off paper al
together, consumers will have a regulation
that will prevent all such 1nordinate ad
vances as the present. Of with the tariff

THE BODY FOUND.

At day light yesterday morning the passers-
by discovered the body of a man in an out
OF the way place, about one-half mile east
of the National read, on the Belt rail way,
lying about 10 feet from the railroad, behind
a stump. The dirt road that crosses the
track at this point seems to start there, and
runs north to the National road. The evil
dent intention of the murderers was to place
him on the Belt track and have MIN run
over. thus destroying all evidences of the
murder.

Mrs. Gels, wife of the butcher, living
within so yards OF the scene, was approach
ed, and stated that she knew nothing of the
affair until Mr.. Hall called her attention,
and, thinking it might be some stock that
had been killed, went out. By this time
the keeper of the toll gate and Mr.. Pan
shell had arrived. and identified the body as
that OF John G.. +. Brown.

Mrs. Gels said further that Brown had
been in the habit of selling stock to her
husband, and the last she saw CT him was on
last Tuesday, when he came and solicited
her husband to buy a calf he had, which
Gels did. He then related what trouble he
had with his wife; that it was almost an i'm
possibility to get along with her, and that
his property was all in his own hands. This
was the last she or her husband saw of him.

The Story Of Jacquard's Loom

A great improvement had been effect
ed in the weaving of silk by native OF
Lyons, named Joseph Marie jacquard.
This poor artisan was born and bred a
silk weaver, but had also been book
binder and type-founder and cutter be
fore his eye lighted on paragraph in
an English newspaper stating that the
society of arts offered reward 10 any
one who should invent machine For
weaving nets. Induced 70 try his me-
chanical skill, jacquard, in 1902, con-
s.ructed loom winch effected the pur-
pose; bat thinking little of his inven-
ton, he laid It aside, and the Original
machine was either lost or destroyed.
But by some means or other the net he
had made found its way TO Paris, and
when he had almost forgotten the piece
of mechanism, jacquard, to his surprise,
was one day summoned in the presence
of the project of the department, who,
after questioning him about the lnven'
tion and discovering that it could not
be found, somewhat peremptorily or
dsred him TO make another. After the
expiration of three weeks jacquard re-
turned with the machine, and few
days subsequent he was arrested aAd dis
patched to Paris in charge OF sendarms.
There he was introduced to Bonaparte'
and Garnet, the latter salating him with

guard replied shat lie could only do
what God had taught him TO dc, and
proceeded to explain the working of his
machine. The Emperor rewarded the
inventor with pension OF 1000 crowns,
gave him employment in the Conserva'
tories des Arts, and made strenuous et-
forts to get the jacquard loom adopted;
but this was a task that almost over
taxed his power, and in which he only
partially succeeded. The intention en-
countered great hostility in France. and
especially in Lyons, where the Cocseil
des Prud'homes broke it 20 bits il one
of the public squares, and denounced
jacquard as a man worthy of universal
ignominy. /: was in St. Etlenne, the
chief rival Of Lyons in the silk manu-.
features, that the jacquard loom was
first generally adopted, and when the
inventor died, in 1854, few Of the fruits

A Cord of Wood.

An innocent, hard-working man yes
terdav lost a situation which ne had held
for year, and which he believed secure
for at least another year to come, and
if this meets The eye of his late employer
perhaps the man will be taken back. A
citizen of Beach street bought cord Of
four-foot wood, and the same was deliv-
cred early in the morning As soon as
the team had gone, the citizen borrowed
quarter of cord Of the same sort OF
neiehbor and added 1t to his pile and
then went down TO the wood yard and
said:

The Electric Light.

I. is reported thai Boston electrical
engineer is about TO ny the experiment
of lighting the large manufacturing CEN
ter of Holyoke, Mass, with the electric
light in manner that will strike the
present generation as novel, but which
has been essaved before. 1t is proposed
% cree. tower - feet high overlook
ing the town. This is to be surmount-
ed by lantern Of such illuminating
capacity as 70 put all previous lamps il
the category OF trifes At present only
one tower Val be erected, but if the
principle should prove a success, seven
or eight viii ultimately be built, with a
view to render the city as light as day
and completely 10 snpercede gas and
kerosene. The idea Of the inventor OF
this daring scheme is to charge the upper
strata of the atmosphere with luminous
vibrations in the same manner as is dol.e
by the sun, and thus to produce the
same effect that is obtained through tie
day from the reflected, refracted and Dis
used light Of that orb. In this manner
it is believed that electric light can be
made to permeate spaces which are III
accessible to direct rays by the same
law ly which daylight ditfuses itself
that is, by virtue of an expansive prop
erty which is constantly illustrae ed on
the large scale of solar illumination, but
has no place in our text books on optics.
The light given by the solar orb a few
minutes after sunset, when only the
upper strata Of the atmosphere is d.
rectly affected by the solar beam, fur
nished, perhaps the best example of the
diffusion and expansion that our engi-
neer proposes to initiate arti6cially. His
plans provide for an Illuminating power
from each lantern equal to 100000 can
dies, which is nearly twenty times that
of any lamp yet manufactured, but is
not at all impracticable, as it involves
only an increase in the diameter Of the
carbons. The cost of the tower, lamp
and generator for single light is esti-
mated at $4,000, irrespective Of the
engine power required to run the latter.
Magnificent and original as this concep-
ton seems, it has been attempted before,
in the infancy Of electrical engineering,
by Western experlmentalist, who con-
ceived The idea of lighting Cincin-
natl in a similar manner, by placing
enormous lights upon the high ground
overlooking the town. This idea was
not successful, but possibly the failure
was due to the crude electrical engineer
ing of that day, not TO any inherent diff
Guilty. To say the least, the result Of
tie Holyoke experiment will be viewed
with interest, and if i. succeeds Edison

"But let me tell you the plot" per-
sisted the journalist.
Mcguire hated Ike the deuce to hear
the internal tiresome plot, but as the re-
porter had considerable influence with
the press, he determined to be civil to
him, and told him to sail ahead
