rabbits and other small game, were
drowned and lodged along the leves.
In some places there were numb SIS o!
hogs drowned and chickens bio sn en-
tirely across the river. Most of ths
people living down theIe are poor rice
iarmers, and have generally from ten
to fifty acres only in rice. They de-
pend almost entirely upon the
advances made by their mpr.
chants, who will alsn suffer
less py the storm. Net much
of the rice had been threshed
as the people had been holding on for
better prices. The loss is roughly es.
timated at 100000, and will fall, it is
said, chiefly on small rice ,rmers, who
have lost even their seed r.ca, and are
thus deprived Of the means of planting
next year, aud on the city and local
merchants who have made small ad-
yances on crops.

Meeting ia the Intereat of Tariff
Reform.


New YORK, October IA meeting
in the interest of reforms in the tariff
was held here this afternoon to con-
suit and decide as to the most judi
cioUs steps to be taken to secure the
election OF Representative 10 Con.
gress and United States Senator who
will do their Utmost to bring about a
revision by reducing the taxes, the
tariff levies on American industries,
and especially the repeal OF the duties
on raw material. Resolutions were
adopted commenting the action OF
those Representatives in Congress who
voted for the consideration of the bill to
simplify and reduce the du'ies on
imports reported by the Commitee
on Ways and Means at the last sss-
sion of Congrefs, aud empowering the
chair to appoint @ committee whose
duty 1t shall be to take such action as
they may deem expedient to carry
out the objects OF the meeting and its
principles. Ernest p. Wheeler made
an address in support OF the r, solu-
tious.
The Hon. Abram s. Hewitt was the
next speaker. The President, he
said, ought to have used tle power
given him by the public. II the Demo-
cratic party now in power fail TO send
some free trade measure to the Senate,
let the responsibility Of defeat, if de-
feated, rest on themselves and turn
them out of power. The mistake OF
revenue reforms has been that you
have insisted that the reform should
begin at the top rather than the bot
tom. With free raw material every
thing else may be left to the energy
and enterprise of the American peo-
PIE. Mr.. Hewitt said that revenue re-
form was necessary to this city and
the whole country, and he was ready
to die, if necessary, in the cause. He
concluded: "If you have not revenue
reform here look to the Democratic
party, not to the Republicans to bring
it out" Orlando B. Potter urged the
members to action, aud predicted that
a continuance of the policy Of pro-
lection would enslave labor. He
claimed that protection prevented the
of the Pacific coast.
Congressman Adams pledged himself
TO vote for any free trade measure ad-
vocated by the party,

which cannot fail to interest the thought

cusses the problem "Is Medicine Pro-

sense and vigor, and IT. D. Traill has a
strong article on international Copy
right" Prof Max Muller's discussion
of Goethe and Carlyle" will engage
the attention of all interested in in litera-
ture as fresh and notable contribution
to The lives of two great men. ''Tne
Greek Home according to Homer" by
E. W. Goodwin, is a scholarly piece of
work. Mr.. Sw;nburne's criticism of the
old Shakesperian dramatist, John
Webster, is marked by all the peculiar
freshness and strength of the celebrat-
ed English poet, who appeals little
less strongly to the public as a
prose critic than he does as poet.
Other notable papers are those on
"Gustave Dore," I'm Osman Digna's
Garden" by Phil. Robinson, "The De-
velopment of Northwest Canada" by ".
Shelford, and "Theodore Agrippa D'Au-
bigne," by P. F. Willert. The various
are all timely and suggestive. The Au-

ton of the best periodical literature of
the time. Published by E. r. Pelton, %

MAKING A BUSINESS.
How Shrewd Young Wife Found Employ
PiOymelt for Her Husband.

HOW Shrewd Young Wife Found Employ
Pioymeat for Her Husband.
During the business depression of
i've years ago, man called one morn-
ing at the basement door of house in
the upper part of the city, with a
basket on his arm. The servant who
answered his knock supposed he was
beggar, but something in the man APP
pearance when he asked for ''the lady
of the house" forced her to ask her
mistress, who was in the kitchen, to-
step to the door. The man removed
his hat, and then uncovered the con-
tents of his observation-disclosures white,
round, Goldfish balls, ready for frying.
He told his story. He was "a book
keeper, but the firm had failed, and he
for months. His wife, a New England
girl, was an excellent cook, and had
decided to make two dozen Goldfish
balls, if he would take them round,
and try to sell them, Here he was
The price was five cents apiece, and
they cost about four; if he sold the two
dozen he would make twenty-five
cents, and that was more than he had
earned in months. Half of the guam
tity were bought at once, and note
written to neighbor urging her to be-
come customer for the balance, and
partner in drumming up other custom
ers if the fish cakes proved to be as
good as they looked. The man went
away with the promise of help if his
goods deserved it. He was to call the
next day for the decision. The two
women reserved a part of their pur-
chase to cook and distribute to their
friends and neighbors, on the ground
that "the proof of the pudding is the
eating"
The fish-balls were delicious, and
Immediately after breakfast each wom-
an cooked the balance of her pur-
chase, deposited the fish-balls in bas-
kets, and went abcnt among her friends
to get orders for the man. The result
was that the third weekly delivery in
the neighborhood was from a hand
cart pushed by stout German boy,
while the proprietor attended to his
customers. In two months he had to
deliver certain days in certain districts,
he had SO many orders; besides, he kept
stock on hand at his house at all
times. In one year the lower part of a
house was given up to the business,
and restaurants, as we'll as private
families, were his customers.
A friend of the first man, in the,
same financial condition, whose wife
made good Bread, came one morning
with the seller of The Goldfish balls hay-
ing small, lovely loaves of bread which.
he sold at five cents per loaf. He, too.
made SO many customers by the su-
periority of his bread that six mon1nss 3 8
later found him delivering bread and
rolls from wagon. The bread re-
mained the same delicious homemade
bread, made by his wife and women
whom she trained; twice week he de-
livers tea biscuit. Both men have I'M
five years time bought the houses in
which they live Christian Union.
