HENRY WAS BAKED,
Mir. NewbrIdo DIsgraces Himself in the
 Sight of His Pretty Wife.


 Sight of Ills Pretty Wife. ! "A word to the wise Is sufficient" There is no doubt but that every young wifo who reads the following many times true story from Puck will profit by it and always give "IIenry, dear" . sample of just the shade of ribbon sha wants, with plainly-written instructions pinned. or perhaps better, glued upon it. When she does she will save him, much modification, and herself time and trouble.
 "Henry. dear" said Mrs. Newbride tG her husband the other morning, "I wish, if 1t won't be too much trouble, dear. that you'd bring me home a yard of orange ribbon this evening. l don't want it so very wide nor so very nar-- row; something between an inch and an inch and half. or. at most, an inch and three-quarters will be about right. Be sure and get a pretty shade of orange dear. and I'd prefer 1t with one side satin; for the other. gros-grain will do, but think you can easily get the other satin if you look around a little; and b. sure, dear, not to get q pico-edTed ribbon, but ono with just 8 plain cord cd edge; and don't get slea2y piece3 and don't got any shade but oranges not real vivid orange, either but aa piece that will look we'll with pale green. and don't pay over thirty-tive or forty cents for it; and don't get red OF blue or green or pink by mistake. You won't forget will you, dear? l must have the ribbon tonight"
 Was it any wonder that when the dazed Henry came homo he brought three yards of sky-blue wstered ribbon? or that. when his wife saw it she sank into a chair and gasped out:

.An Irish Aral,.o


 ssAn Irish Arab. is a mixture of melo- drama and farce, presented in six acts. The first IS laid in England, and gives promise only of the conventional love drama, with the usual unreasoning par ent compelling his son to marry his ward against both their wills and very much te the discontinue of love-sick nephew. Then there is sudden change of scene to Africa, and the audience is at last made aware of Bobby Gaylor's connection with the piece. As the Irish Arab, who from being ''poor little man" ill his own green isle, has risen to be grand in Egypt, the popular Irish comedian sustains his reputation ad- mirably.-Chicago Times.

Missing Bridgeport Man.

BRIDGEPORT, August 27-Nothing has yet been heard of Fred Smith, the young cigar dealer who has been missing from his home here since Friday night The fact that he had large sum of money on his person when last seen is causing his friends considerable fear that he has fallen in with thugs who have done away with him and taken his money. He was a young man of ex- cellent habits. His friends have no idea where he has gone and have asked the police to clear the mystery up.

Mr.. James Runciman in the
Fortnightly Review has done the
literary world valuable service in
showing by parallel passages, and
by mathematical exactnees of
proof that Haggard, the sensa-
tional writer, is u plagarist; either
this, or there exists the most mar
velous coincidence of two authors
writing the same thing-practi-
cally-that has been known to the
world. The same critic in like
manner lays a charge at the door
Of Mrs. Francis Hodgdon Burnett
that brings into question the orig
inality Of her story of Little Lord
Fauntleroy. The proofs are not
positive, but strong enough TO
make the lady feel very uncom-
Portable, if she is at all sensitive.
The New York Evening Post be-
lieves that the critic named has a
clear case against Haggard, and
that Mrs. Burnett is in
a close corner also.

ports.

ports.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-By a
majority vote the House Commit
tee on Coinage, Weights and
Measures today authorized Chair
man Conger to report the Win
dom silver bill to the House, with
a number Of amendments. The
first is TO Section 3. This section
makes it the duty of the Secretary
of the Treasury to refuse to

silver shall exceed one dollar for
371.25 grains pure silver The
committee added the following:
Provided, that when the marx
ct price of silver, as determined
in accordance with Section 5 of
this Act, is one dollar for 371.25
grains pure silver, it shall be law
full for the owner of any silver
bullion. the deposit of which for
notes is herein provided for, to
deposit the same at any coinage
mint in the United States, to be
coined into standard silver dollars
for his benefit, as provided in the
Act of January Is, 1887.
The next amendment strikes
out Section 6, which authorizes
the Secretary TO suspend tempo
rarily the receipt of silver bullion
at any time when satisfied that

i've manipulations of the market
the price of silver is arbitrary,
nominal or fictitious.

the Secretary adding new sect
ion, which provides for stamping
with the word foreign" of result
ant bars of all foreign silver bullion
or coins to be remelted or refined.
The next amendment was to

lar.

THERE is cheering news from various
sources that the Democrats Of Sussex
county are unitedly and harmoniously
preparing for vigorous campaign. They
have organized club and have begun to
lay plans for an active and earnest re-
sistance to the efforts of the Republican
machine to deceive and debauch the
voters Of Sussex. There is no mistaking
the means that the Republicans in
tend to employ to carry the county
Senator Higgins is on the Congressional
Campaign Committee. He has Bach,
Fisher, Downham and Buckingham as
active lieutenants. Those facts are sig
nifcant. The Levy Court and the men
who run it have made an exhibition o.
their calibre, recklessness partisan un-
fairness; the paper lately transplanted
from Seaford has given samples Of its pc
culiar inspiration. There is nothing more
to be learned, the Republican plan Of
attack is as well-known now as
if it had already been made.
The only thing to be learned is the
amount OF money that will be sent into
Sussex. But tits not requisite to know
that. The amount will be enormous
more than can be expended The Demo-
Gratis, even were they disposed, which
they are not, could not hope to meet the
Republicans on an equal financial footing
Hence the Democrats are wise to form
clubs and discuss the situation
They have the facts befor,
them. They know the men an,
their methods; they understand wha
opposition they have to meet; what cor
rupting influences they have to with
stand they know everything they ca
know except the amount of the one p1
tent argument which is never abser
from Republican campaign. The
shsuld prepare the popular mind an
heart to resist Doodle.

anticipated massage Of the Mckinley bill
This is followed by protest from the
st. Loais dealers in cutlery which shows
how the price Of various necessaries in
that line are to go up under the in
iuences Of the Mckinley tariff:
On pooket-kniyes 100 per cent. ad valorem
instead OF 90 per cent as now
On razore, IS per cent. ad valorem, instead ol
30 per cent as now.
On carving and cooks knives, 20 per cent
ad valorem. instead of 30 per cent. ns now.
On table cutlery, 50 per cent ad Yalerem
instead Of 35 per cent. as now.
On butcher-knives. IS per cent aa Valoreh'
| instead of 35 per cent. as now.
On scissors and shears. 40 per cent. au
valorem, instead Of s5 per cent. as now.
The heaviest burden in each case Is put OF
On pocket Eniyea the duty runs as high as
on mr. razors the duty runs as high as 100 pei
on carving knives the duty runs as high as
On table cutlery the duty runs as high as z
70 On butoher-kniyes the duty runs as high as
G5 per cent.
These rates are nearly al prohibitory,
The protest signed by four Republicans
and four Democrats Pays:
and Il is evidently made with the intention OF
benefting a comparatively small .class OF the
manufacturers, TO the disadvantage OF the
toiling masses.
The answer Of the protectonist is that
the prices will not be raised but lowered
that duty is necessary to build up the
industries; that the country has pros
pered under protection.
The country has prospered in spite Of
protection, sit has prospered in spite
Of a devastating civil war, the consequent
enormous pension-list and other political
corruptions. The industries in glass and
cutlery were already here and did not
need to be "bnilt up. There is money
and skill for all enterprises in this
country without levying taxes on
the people to support them. If
the prohibitory tariff does not increase
prices and keep them at relatively
higher rate than anywhere else in the
world-even though the prices may be
decreasing relatively all over the world
from Other causes-there would be no
reason for tariff duty.
Thus the special pleas Of the protec-
tionists are false, contradictory and IL
logical. The slightest examination from
a candid man overthrows them.

SOME philosophic protectionist who
has spent the last five years in writing
pleas to deceive the people, whom the
tariff is robbing, should explain to
the 1000 600 negro cotton growers
how the increased yduty on the lower
grades Of tin, iron, glass. steel and other
necessaries OF life viii benefit them.
They have nothing but cotton, which
they sell in free-trade market, to ez-
change for any Of these commodi-
ties en- which the new duty will
raise the cost to over 100 per cent. Some
one might explain also to 500, 600 negroes
engaged in sugar-cane growing how
much Of the cents bounty on sugar the
planters win award them in wages
These explanations would be very sppro-
pirate just now.
