An Object Lesson,

No city in the world contains as many
homesteadS as Philadelphia In no city
in the world are there a many working
men who live rent free. because they own
their own homes. In no city in the world
i, there a larger aggregate Of working
mems saving, invested or in, savings
banks Perhaps no city in the world has
larger proportion of wage earncrs in its
population. Philadelphia is pre-cminent.
ly a city of homes, as it i pre-cminently
city Of diversified manufactures. Since
ls62 there have been erected in Philadel-
phia enough houses to make five or six
cities like Newark. This great growth
and prosperity date from the passage of
the Morrill, tariff bill, and have been fos-
tered by tariff protection.
Samuel j. Randall. a Phladclphian.
has seen the wonderful development of
his native city under the stimulus % tarifl
protection. He knows that il this tariff
protection should be removed, Philadcl-
phia and every other manufacturing cen
ter would feel the bilghtiug effects. \
Democrat in all things else. he would be
false to himself and false to- those who
elected him As their trusted representa-
tive If he followed the free-trade banner
set up by Mills and his fellow free-traders.
Mr. Randall has eyes TO see. He gets
his economic lessons from the school of
practical experience. To him Philadel-
pha is great object lesson. in the pres
ence of which the theories of the free
traders are empty soap bubblcs.-Neirark

They are laughing in one coterie about
young fellow who has come to disaster
through being at once Joker with the
boys and a masher with the girls In the
former capacity he is ingenious and ex
pert in playing tricks upon his fellows at
the club. His latest device was what he
called the goblin squirt. It consisted
of a scarf pin, the form OF which was a
comic face, calculated to make the OBJ.
server look close at it, and this was at
tached to a water filed rubber bulb hidden
under his shirt bosom. The practical
working of this invention was to press on
the little tank at the instant when some
curious friend had his face close to the
pin and thus eject a tiny stream of water
upon him. Possibly there was no great
wit in this joke, but the chap enioved it
very much. The mistake that he made
was in not putting aside the apparatus
when he went out in his capacity of
masher
One wealthy maiden was understood to
be his serious choice for wife and he
was in the early stages of earnest en-.
deavOr to win her He called on her and
sat alongside her on not too capacious
sofa. They were in some sentimental con
versation at close range. Her face was
far enough away from the scarf pin to
satisfy the demands of proprety, and vet
it was near by when he placed his hand
with passionate gesture on his heart
But between the palm and the heart lay
the little rubber bag A squirt of water
few into the eyes of the maiden. 1t was
a dash of cold water on the romantic
hopes of the poor fellow. How is it known
that it ended his courtshipi Why be-
cause the girl told the story merrily to all
her acquaintance. She wouldn't have

garded it as terminal New York Sun.

Who Is the Coming Man ?

The letter written by Mr.. Blaine t.
Whitelaw Reid given in the REPORTED
last week. was very unwelcome to hi
many friends all over the country ano
has caused much speculation as to who i,
going to be the coming man. Thus far
the developments do not point with over
towering strength to any one man. New
York can unite one Depew if he will take
it, but he has the opinion that the preju-
dice that many people have against rail
road men makes it impossible for him to
be an acceptable candidate. lie is very
strong in New York and could carry that
state, very important point in his favor,
but he evidently feels disenclined to en-
ter the arena of politics even as a candi
date for such an exalted position.
The friends of the various candidates
are pushing their claims with renewed
activity since the second letter, and a
large amount Of work is being got in on
delegates. The appearance is that large
part of the delegates FROM esSstes when
there is no fayorite son f6r them to
support will 90 to Chicago unpledged,
look the grounds well over with the view
of supporting the strongest man.
The fact is more than evident that had
not Mr. Blaine written his Florence letter
his nomination would have been by ac
clamation, and but for his later letter he
would have stood much more than an
even chance of nomination.

mystery. No one was heard to call or
