PERSONAL AND PECULIAR.

Mrs. Cleveland takes her husbands defeat
very much to heart, according to some re-
ports, and 1t isn't strange that she should.
1t is entirely natural and in the order of
things that she should be the last person In
the world to discover that her husband Is not
a popular man, and that the discovery should
disappoint and grieve her.
Miss Endicott is not the only American
girl who was not afraid to tackle widower
with eight children. Lady Waterlow, who
was a San Francisco girl, found eight step
children awaiting her In London when she
married Sir Sidney Waterlow, but, as she
said, the discipline Of an English family and
the commanding position an English father
occupies in his own family, guaranteed that
there would be no insubordlnation.
Mr.. Boyle 0'Reilly's poem for the Attucks
monument in Boston is complimented as a
very remarkable production-perhaps the
high-water mark Of his achievement. The
bare fact that O'Reilly, Irish Of the Irish.

upon as an incident Of much significance in
the story Of the elevation of the whole hu-
man race on this continent.

Mr.. T. G. Clemson left all his property, in

Calhoun, to board of trustees for the estab-
lishment Of an agricultural college Inc
estate Is valued at 100000. The bequest
was made an issue in the recent state cam

solid democracy in twain, the question being
whether the State would accept the Dequest:

a nolitical issue. The Farmers Alliance
want the property. while others are not dis

THE FARMERS ORDER.
Meeting of the National Grange at
Topeka, Kansas.

TOPEKA, KS, Nov. 15.-The National
Grange, Patrons of Busbandry, began its an
nual session this morning. Mr. James Drap-
er, acting Master, said in the course of his
address:
The order is in most fourishing condi-
tion. There have been 1893 subordinate
oranges instituted during the past year. The
greatest increase in membership has been
made in North Carolina, while the New
England States show continual increase.
both in membership and new oranges. Col
orado has developed marked activity and
progress and is represented again this year
in the councils of this body. The speaker
urged a need of Improvement in the orders
meth ods of procedure in attaining legisla-
tion fa, orable to agricultural industries. He
thought that the order should have some one
at Washington all the time while Congress
was in session with authority to act for the
National Grange. He urged further efforts
for the enlargement of the powers of the aq-
ricultural department. The question Of
trusts and the necessity for suppressing them
was noted. Mr.. Draper also alluded to what
had been done in the way of preventing the
adulteration of foods, and pointed out what
remained to be done.
Regarding the tariff, Mr.. Draper said; The
whole tendency of tariff legislation hereto
fore has been to give liberal protection to
the manufacturing and mining industries,
leaving the agricultural products but lightly
protected. while some of its most important
products, notably that of wool, it has been
proposed to have on the free list. A care
ful study and consideration of our present
tariff law shows that the average duty of all
The Portland daily press., 1888-11-16

interests combined is about AZ per cent !;
that the manufacturing interests alone are
protected to the amount OF 55 per cent,
while the average on agricultural products
is only about 20 per cent. This inequality
has existed altogether too long, and al
though our political instructors inform us
that the "home market" which manufac-
turing industries give to agriculture should
atone in great measure for this inequality,
we are boldly confronted with the fact that
the agricultural toilers even In the manu-
featuring districts are having hard
struggle to acquire the necessaries of life.
The declaration of purposes of our order de-
mands protection for the weak, restraint
upon the strong" Equitable tariff legislation
is an issue second to none in Importance In
this direction, and, to accomplish anything,
we must use our undivided influence and
organized power in demanding reduction
of the highly protected industries to corre-
spond with the protection agriculture is
now receiving, or else an increase of protec-
tion TO agriculture that shall be just and
equitable to all concerned.
And let me add in this connection that If
we are ever to accomplish ANYTHING in this
direction, we must have our interests repre-
sented at the proper time by those duly
authorized to represent this organization be-
fore the Congressional committees having
this matter in charge, and supplement this
work with such personal and united influ-
ences as we are able to expert upon those
who represent our several districts in Con-
gresS.

saying he was embarrassed at standing In a
place where such men as Senator Hoar, Sem
ator Sherman and Hon. James G. Blaine
had stood. At the mention of Mr.. Blaine's
name there were tremendous cheers. He
described the way Michigan had been recov-
cred, saying that in 1884 she gave Republi-
can plurality of 3000 At the next State
election the Democrats had $4,000 plurality
and that year they elected six congressman
to five for the Republicans. In 1886 partial
reaction set in, and the Republicans elected
the governor by some 1000. This year they

a SPICY SCENE
Artistic EccentrIcIty Keeps an Audi
ence Waiting.
Lewiston Journal

Lewiston Journal
You can't always tell what is going on be-
hind the scenes. Great artists have eccen-
tricitles. Nine. Carreno has some. Miss
Juch has some. Lichtenberg has more than
''some." Brignolio used to have twice "some"
and some to carry.
If anybody is sensitive, it is the musician.
Camilla Urso once got mad in Lewiston be-
cause her name was not printed in bigger
type on the posters and programmes and de-
clined to tune up that delightfully."- dreamy,
soulful fiddle of hers and entrance uslhungry
souls in inland Maine with her inspired
music.
This is preface to a scene at Music Hall
last evening.
Lichtenberg began it. He said the piano
was out of tune and that he wouldn't draw
a bow until 1t was tuned. Secretary Whit
this course of concerts, thought it was In
pretty good tune but his ear is not profess
sionally critical and he yielded and at 6p.
m, was skurrying around after piano
tuner. He got one.
Night came, and with it the bewitching
Carreno and the blonde and beauteous Juch
When Nine. Carreno cast her black eyes on
the bill boards that bore elegantly litho-
graphed announcements Of the "Juch Oper-
attic Concert Company" under the Redpath
management, etc." she was mad. We put it
mildly, she was mad. At least that's what
the local managers Of the concert say.
"Call it the 'Juch Concert Company" |"
said she, when she reached the stage Of the
hall Just before the concert. 'Why not call
tha iu
not my name in just as big letters as Miss
Juchs? What? Why isn't it, sir?"
Mr. Whitney couldn't say. None of the
local managers could say. Miss Jueh couldn't
say. Lichtenberg himself couldn't say.
Where, o where was the wicked lithograph-
erl If he had been there
Meanwhile the people gathered in the au-
ditorium. Eight O'Clock came, and the dis
cussion waxed warm. Nine. Carreno de-
clared positively and stamped her little foot,
and SAID she wouldn't go. on the stage;
wouldn't play note; wouldn't appear. 1t
was not Just to her. Who had right to
name this concert company? Wesn't she an
artist as well as the rest?
Why should she appear in inconseduentlal
garb on the big bills? In the heat Of the
discussion all the company engaged, Nine,
Juch threw her arms around the Carreno
and Rugged her and implored her to go on
Nine. Carreno was immovable. Five min
utes past eight came and then ten minutes
past eight
Mr..Whitney engaged in the discussion and
explained that the bureau did the advertis.
ing and not he or the local committee. 1t
did no good The scene was unique, origi
nal. A pretty woman kept them all at bay
Quarter past eight
Mr.. Whitney took out his watch. Said he

shall not unless this whole concert Is given
I'll give you FIVE minutes to go on. IL yor
don't the curtain goes down, the audience /:
dismissed. and you don't get penny.
This was duly considered to the tune of Mr.
Whitney's watch as it ticked the moments
away.
You know how it ended.

Police BOAT RiddIed.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. Nov. 15.-An engage
ment last night in Chesapeake bay between
a feet of oyster pirates and the schooner
Daisy Archer of the Maryland oyster navy.
came near resulting fatally to one of the
oyster police. Jacob Ships. one of the
crew of the Archer, was levelling his gun at
dredger, when bullet whistled past him
and struck the boat three inches above his
head. The police boat was completely rid
died with bullets and for want of ammuni-
tion had to retreat. The side light of the
State boat was carried away, and she was
badly used up. The State officials complain
of lack Of arms, and some of the police cap
tains will resign If their boats are not better
equipped. They represent the dredgers as
being desperate and more than a match for
them. The State board Of public works will
be appealed to for a cannon on each police
boat, in addition to their repeating rifles,
which are not used.
