The Hungarian state keeps alto
gether four studs, viz: Mezohegyes
with 1,G46 horses of various breeds,
Babolna, with $50 horses, and Fogarax,
with 421, both for Arabian horses;
finally Kisber, with 500 horses, princi.
pally for the importation and breed o!
British horses, racers as well as half
breeds. The state keeps other depots
of stations at different places, having
altogether $500 there in 1887, the lat
est year Cor which return has been
prepared.
The review at Kisber lysted over
TWO hours. The emperor was seated

riding school, and all the generals
and other staff officers, as well as the
military attaches, were allowed to go
where they liked, in order to have the
closest INSPECTION of the splendid
horses and the whole establishment.
The first to pass muster were thirty
1--WE half breed stations, beautiful an
imals, all led into the circle by their
trainers, as the state does not dispose
OF this costly material except when
the horses are fully broken in. The
enthusiasm of the connoisseurs at see
ing these fine creatures was somewhat
premature, for soon afterward ten
thoroughbred stations were brought
IN, the pride of the royal stud of ks
Ger. There was no need OF mention
ing their names, as was done in the
case OF the half breeds, as all of the
guests knew and recognized them.

Tiyress Who Captured Native as .
Plaything for Her Cubs.
The notorious Jounsar man eating
tigress has at last been killed by a
young forest officer. This tigress has
been the scourge of the neighborhood
of Chal1ata for the last ten years, and
her victims have been innumerable.
On one occasion she seized one out of
a number of foresters who were Sleep
ing together in a hut, carried him off
and deliberately made him over to her
cubs to play with, while she protected
their innocent gambols from being
disturbed. His companions were
eventually forced to take refuge in a
tree from her savage attacks.
Here they witnessed the following
CHASTITY tragedy: The tigress went
back and stood over the PROSTATE
form of her victim and purred in a
cat like and self complacent way to
her cubs, who were romping about
and rolling over the apparently life
less body. She then lay down few
yards off and with blinking eyes watch
ed the gambols of her young prog
eny. In a few moments the man sat
up and tried to beat the young brutes
off. They were too young to hold
finn down, so he made desperate at
tempt to shake himself free and started
off on a run; but before he could get
twenty yards the tigress bounded out
ANA brought him back to her cubs.
Once more the doomed wretch had
to defend himself from their playful
attacks. He made renewed efforts to
regain his freedom, but was seized by
the old tigress and brought back each
time before he had gone many yards.
His groans and cries for help were
heartrending, but the men on the tree
were paralyzed with fear and quite
unable to move. At last the tigress
herself joined in the gambols of the
cubs and the wretched man was
thrown about and tossed over her
head exactly as many of us have seen
our domestic cats throw rats and mice
about before beginning to feed on
them.
The mans efforts at escape grew
feebler. For the last time they saw
him try to get away on his hands and
knees toward large fig tree. with the

attempt was as futile as the rest The
tigress brought him back once again,
and then held him down under her
fore paws, and deliberately began her
living meal before their eyes.
1t was this formidable beast that the
young Coopers Hill officer and stu
dent attacked on foot. They were
working up her trail fifteen yards
apart, when suddenly Mr.. Osmaston
heard his younger companion groan,
and turning round, saw him bound to
the ground by the tigress. Mr.. Os
maston fortunately succeeded in shoot.
ing her through the spine, and a sec
ond' ball stopped her in midspring.
Meantime his companion rolled over
the hill, and was eventually discovered

and interest, and only moderate amount

and interest, and only moderate amount
OF profits.
1t is one Of the stock arguments OF
Free-traders that duty levied upon for
eign made goods enables home producers
of such articles to raise the price of their
own wares by an amount equal to the
import duty, and that such tariff is the
efficient cause of the many trusts and
combines that under present industrial
organization find free scope for activity.
But fair examination Of the history Of
industry during the last fifty years will
show that such combinations have arisen
irrespective OF a system of Protection
wisely applied. Such Protection endeav-
ors to encourage a general development
of the country's resources. 1t seeks to
encourage competition among producers
at home, not to restrain it.
Trusts and combines, with all their at
tendant evils Of enhanced prices, irregu-
lar and artificial production, and uncer-
tain opportunities of labor, furnish po-
litical and economic problem which must
sooner or later be fairly met by American
statesmen; but when they are seen to ex-
ist in Free-trade countries to - extent
as great or greater than in eur own. and
when in ours they are found to deal with
unprotected as well as protected commod-
tiles, the thought suggests itself that
they are not the creature of Free-trdde
or of Protective policy, and that their
origin must be sought outside of these two
opposing economic policies, and that their
solution will not be found in the aboli-
ton of the one or the triumph of the
other.
The combinations of capital now at
tracing public attention having as an
object the buying of American breweries,
or those for obtaining control of the -four
ing mills and grain elevators of the United
States, or even the firmly established
Standard Oil trust, which stands pre-emi-
nent os an example of the power of aggre-
gated capital skillfully managed, are not
the results of the American policy of Pro-
lection, for a Protective tariff does not
operate upon the subject matter of any
of these.
Our argument has shown that the
often heard statement that the tariff en-
hances prices by the amount of duty
levied is wholly unwarranted. 1t has
also shown that no relation of cause and
effect can be established between Protec-
ton and trusts, or Free-trade and trusts,
and consequently the tariff is not even
indirectly responsible for the enhanced
prices occasioned by trusts.
From social and political considera-
tions, as well as for economic reasons, it
is to the best interest of our country that
policy be adopted which will encourage
the growth Of diversified interests and
industries, rather than the concentration
of labor, capital and industrial ability in
few interests of mammoth proportions.
Judicious Protection occasions diversifi
cation and inaugurates a competition
which insures prices as low as fair re-
turn to capital and fair reward for
labor will warrant.

These men, who have toiled at wages in

American Shipping.

In the tariff act passed by the first con-
gress the tonnage tax on foreign vessels
was more than eight times greater than
that imposed on domestic tonnage. The
most serious obstacle to the rebuilding of
our merchant marine is found in the
protective system of England as applied
to her shipping in the form Of subsidies.
When this government is wise enough to
meet the English in this particular and
give to our merchant marine bounty
for every league sailed or steamed in car
rying the United States mails, then, and
not till then, will it revive. The bounty
or subsidy should be sufficiently ample
to carry our mails and establish our trade
in every nook and corner of the earth
The talk about the tariff destroying our
carrying trade |, rubbish. Our carrying
trade today is 81, 400, 900, 000 annually.
In 1860 it was $500, 900, 900, showing an
increase of over 800 per cent. since 1880.
1t is absurd to argue that we, who stand
pre-eminent for efficiency and cheapness
of our locomotives, cars and railroad
service generally, who have introduced
our types of stationary engines and
pumps into England, where they are
either purchased or built, retain our old
skill as sailors, and have the fastest and
best river and coastwise steamers in the
world, cannot build and sail the fastest
and best ocean steamers at the lowest
cost if our government extended the
same aid to our shipping which the mer-
chant marine of England received, and
which Germany, France, Spain, Italy
and Australia arc now giving to their
shipping.

The standard of Protection is not a
high tariff or low tariff, but wages
tariff, one which shall guard the wages
of our workingmen and insure the pros
perity of those industries in which and
from which alone those wages can be
earned. Every workman who has spent
good part of his active life in acquiring
the skill which commands for him good
wages has the right to be protected in the
exercise of that skill.-DaSfd Hall Rice.

Foreign and Homo Production.

When your external profits come to
you in the form and substance of COM
peting products, which (by cheapness
unnatural to our climate) destroy home
production, you are only gaining with the
one hand what you are losing from the
other. with the prospect of an insecure
future, since production abroad can never
be under control as can that within your
own borders.-Fair Trade, London.

The women of even the south
have been driven to express their
griefs publicly on the servant girl
terror. The ladies of Asheville, N.
c., held a meeting lately and for
med union, offensive and defen-
siye, against the peregrinating slat-
terms who destroy domestic peace
and comfort in this country by
pretending to do kitchen work.
The AsheYille ladies agreed on a
plan Of campaign. They formed a
stiff house-keepers' union, all mem
bers pledging themselves to abide
by the rules established. They es-
tablished graded scale of prices,
to be determined by the capacity of
the girl and the length of service in
one family. This will work much
good il the plan Is strictly adhered
to. A housekeepers' protective union
is one Of the needed organizations
of the nation. 1t should extend all
over the country.
Philadelphia ladies have tried a
system which is working admirably.
They have a course of instruction
in cooking and housekeeping. To
girls who can pass a satisfactory ex-
animation in the housekeeping
course a certificate is granted. This
will readily obtain a situation for
any girl. Then the scale Of wages
is graded. The longer a girl lives
in one family and gives good salts
faction the more her pay becomes
annually, till it reaches maximum.
The girl herself must bind herself
by written contract to remain so
long. The mistress, too, on her
part must sign contract, in which
she agrees to treat the girl some
what as she herself would wish
to be treated under like circum-
stances. The system takes into
account the depravity Of mistress as
well as hired girl.
Under the Philadelphia system
incompetency among household help
is said to be diminishing rapidly.
1t is worth trying in other cities.

REMARKABLE indeed, pathetic be-

speech of Montgomery, the colored
mem Der in the Mississippi constitu-

would disfranchise 1O-20ths of

knowing that it would give the
whites a majority of 10000 at pre-
sent and a large majority for years
to come, he spoke and voted in
favor Of an educational qualification
for suffrage in the constitution.
This qualification disfranchises 1884,

making. He believed it would end
