she Was a High Kicker.

New York special: When the Chicago

the performance OF prince Methusalem''
ut WaIlsck's last week the club from
Chicago sent over the footlights to DE
Wolf Hopper q monstrous ball of white
and red roses. Saturday night three
young women, we'll known members of
Ward McAliister's four hundred, attend.
ed the opera with some friends. AS
they were going in they noticed the ball
OF roses hanging from the chandler IN
the lobby. AS they stopped to admire
it one of the girls was heard to say to q
companion: 81 bet / could kick that"
They soo passed to their seats.
This morning q closed carriage drove
up in front of the thea er and a liyeried
foetman sought Manager Stevens. he
went of once to the carriage and recog-
nized the young ladies who had talked
about kicking the ball. The first ques-
tion asked was if the ball was in it's
place. They had gone home after the
thestsr and the one who thought she
could kick it and who can be seen any
day in the surf at q ~DeighborinR resort,
offered a wager, which her two com
panions promptly took. They had de-
cided to settle the bet Sunday morning,
when no one was about, and now would
Mr.. Stevens help them2
Mr.. Stevens entered heartily into the
scheme. The young ladies left the car
risge and we're ushered into q dImly
lighted lobby by q side door. Then the
guide was told to go out and stand with
his back to the door and let no one in
until he was called. He agreed again
and left the young ladies TO decide their
bet. In q few moments q laugh was
heard which was taken as an invitation
for MIR. Stevens to enter. In the center
of the lobby stood an athletic young
lady in q bathing suit Of black and gold,
while on the floor, was q long ulster
which she had worn in the carriage
while 10 the bottom of Hopper's floral
base ball was q hole which told that the
bet had been won.
The entrance OF Mr.. Stevens caused
the young lady to jump into her ulster
in double quick time.

Laird's Pure Food Act.
THE SUBSTITUTE FOR THE PRO
POSED LEE BILL.
LEGISLATION rs NEEDED.
some Startling Figures Showing the I'M
position Practiced Upon Both Pro-
ducers and Consumers-Laird's en-
elegant Yet Forcible Opinion.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24-Representa-
tive Laird Of Nebraska, from the COM
mittee on agriculture, made report on
the Lee pure food bill. That measure is
regarded by the committee as unconsti-
tutional and a substitute is recon-
mended. @
The substitute prohibits the transpor-
tation of adulterated goods from one
state to another, and this prohibition the
committee thinKsi is vested in the general
government under the clause in the on.
stitution giving it power to regulate in
ter-state commerce and also the general
welfare clause. The details Of the law
are left to the agriculture department.
After referring to the extent to which
adulteration is practiced ut the present
time and the injury 1t works on the hon
est dealer, Mr.. Laird says: ''To illus
trate the extent of the impositions prac-
ticed upon both the producers and con-
sumers in the item of lard, evidence
vas offered before the committee to
show thar in 1886 there were produced
In Chicago 149, 900, 900 pounds of lard,
received from other sources 80, 600, 900
pounds, aggregating 237, 600, 900 pounds,
while there was shipped from that city

900 pounds more than the total amount
of lard produced and purchased at that
point. This excess of TO- 00, 600 pounds
rs supposed to cover the cotton seed oil,
beef stearine, and other matter used in
the liberation of lard food. This
would make a loss Of 81 cents on each
hog sold in Chicago that year, and would
aggregate a sum from $13, 900, 600 to S15,.
U00, 900, an amount equal to three times
the entire value of the cottonseed oil
crop, and by which sum the value of the
hog product was diminished to the loss
of honest producers, to the danger Of
honest consumers, and to the present
peril and ultimate loss of the foreign
