The Democratic Legislature OF
Tennessee declares decidedly in favor
of tariff for revenue only. If the
general government should adopt
the Tennessee plan of paying its
debts for fifty cents on the dollar she
would need but little revenue or
credit either.

department and several members Of
the. Board of Underwriters, gave
those gentlemen some valuable in-
formation III the matter. Unus Leo
said: "One of the most dangerous
pieces of apparatus used by the life
saving corps of the department, ex-
|ccpt when used to catch persons who
leap from a height not exceeding
twenty feet, is the scatch canvas
which is held by number of per
sons. A person jumping into can
vas of this character from a dista nee
of thirty feet, takes the same chan
ces as if he leaped onto plank floor,
he being liable to break some bones,
Iif not his neck. Now, my idea is
that instead of using such canvas,
nets, such as we use in our business
should be used by the corps, one like
this, for instance" and he pointed
to one stretched in the theatre, COM
posed of small strong ropes covered
with netting made of small cords.
This" said he, ''is very light, yet
strong enough to resist weight of
eight hundred pounds thrown from a
height of fifty feet. For use in the
fire department would have on each
corner of the net piece of gas pipe
eight feet long, to serve as stan
chious, and from each corner Of the
net ropes to be held by three or four
men, who, pulling from opposite cor
ners, would hold the stanchions in
place. A person could then throw
himself from a window fifty or sixty
feet above, and. by striking the net,
would escape without injury to limo.
If he should break through the net
ting the safety ropes would catch
him aud prevent him from going
through" Mr.. Leo spoke at some
length of his results in experiment
ing with various kinds of catch blank
cts and nets, but had never found
any as safe as the one he and his
Brother are now using. He then
described safety line by which a
person may be lowered from any
window of a house to the street in
perfect safety. After this he gave
an exhibition of the manner in which
a person should be lifted by a fire.
man 70 be carried down a ladder.
Mr.. Leo, who weighs but l65 pounds,
picked up Assistant Engineer Imbrie,
o,,weighs 22o pounds, in a pecu-
liar SanDer. which he fully explained,
{ threw him across his back and
yalked up a step-Iaadcr with him
and down again with as much case
'As~if he carried a twenty-pound
package. By the peculiar manner in
which he grasps person the person
is unable to resist. while he himself
has the free use of his left hand. He
then showed the difference in the
grasp used to carry female, and
explained how firemen should pick
up persons who have become as-
phyxiated and are unable to move
any limbs. The brothers promised
the chief that they will give an ex-
hibition of methods in life-saving at
one of the truck houses next week.
Chief Scannell stated that he will
have all the men of the truck com
panies learn the grasp REQUESTS to
pick up and carry men and women.
The Leo brothers are now in this
city playing short engagement at
the Elite theatre, and it is their in
cliration to impart the knowledge
to the Portland department, if it will
be acceptable.

GOV. BUTLER's ADDRESS.

A small tempest has arisen in the
Massachusetts Legislature, says the
New York Times, over proposition
to print 10000 extra copies of Gov.
B. F. Buffers inaugural address.
The usual number of extra copies
ordered is 1000, but the Democrats
say that the document is of uncom-
mon interest, and should be read by
every voter in the State, as it shows
how Massachusetts has been mis- :
governed. Some of the Republicans
who oppose the proposition to print
the unprecedented number OF TO-
600 copies of this incendiary docu-
ment say that it is ga put-up job" 20

Advice to a Young Man.

And, then, remember, my son you have
to work Whether you handle pick or
u pen, wheelbarrow or set Of books.
digging bitches or editing apaper, ring
ing an auction bell, or writing funny
things, you must work. If you look
around you, son, you will SEQ that the
men who are the most able to live the
rest of their days without work are the
men who worked the hardest. Don't
be afraid Of killing yourself with over
work, son. 1t is beyond your power to
do that. Men cannot work so hard as
that on the sunny side of thirty. They
die sometimes, but it's because they quit
work at 9 p. m and don't get home
until 2 a. M It's the interval that
kills, my son The work gives you an
appetite for your meals, it lends soldity
to your slumbers, it gives you perfect
and grateful appreciation Of holiday.
There are young men who do not work,
my son; but the world is not proud Of
them 1t does not know their names.
even; it simply speaks of them as old
so-and-so's boys. Nobody likes them,
nobody hates them the great busy
world doesn't even know that they are
there. SO find out what you want to
be and do, son, and take of your coat,
and make dust in the world. The
buster you are the less devitry you will
be apt to get into. the sweeter will BE-
your sleep, the brighter and happier
your holidays. and the better satisfied
will the world be with you.-MpLew.

Corn which Is billcd will blow down
more readily than that which has level
culture This can be accounted for by
the fact that corn roots run very near
the surface, and when hills are made
they are confined TO the small space
covered by the bill, while in level cul-
ture the roots run from one row to the
other, thus enabling the corn to stand

the expenditures had been heavier. The
anticipated receipts for next year have
already suffered decrease of about S.. 500-
90 at least, through the decision OF Attor-
ney-General Brewster, who holds that the
tariff law passed last session forbids the
collection of any more taxes upon capital
deposits of banks. 1t was generally under

were to be paid up TO the date of the act. 1t
SEEMS, however, that the bankers had

s6llful employment oflanguage so fixed it
tht the law is retroactive three months in

in harmony with the thieviug tariff bill.
