SIGNING THE TARIFF BILL.

The President Surrounded by His Cabinet,
Senators and congressman.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-When the bulky
dent for his signature, Private Secretary
Halford lifted the mass of parchment
and laid it before him. The assemblage
present gathered close about the table
as the President pushed back the roll
of the preceding pages SO az to give
hi arm free swing to atf1x his sigma
ture in the space left vacant in the
lower left-hand corner of the last page.
At the Presidents right stood the
Secretary of State, and in front of him
Major Mckinley. Mr.. Aldrich stood
just behind Mr.. Blaine. Some one
asked the President if he felt at all
nervous. He smiled and replied that
he did not, but wanted an opportunity
to make his approval forcible as
possible.
There was brief silence, and the
President, taking a fresh supply of
ink on the stub pen with which he had
been afixing his signature to other
meas ures, wrote Approved, October
/, 1890. Benjamin Harrison" at the
bottom of the bill.
Private Secretary Halford stood ready
with the blotter, but Secretary Blaine
caught his arm and said: "No, les it
dry" So the bill was lifted aside and
the heavy signature of the President
remained on it intact.
Major Mckinley bowed to the Presi-
dent and left the room.
The pen with which the signature
was affixed to the bill became the prop
erty of Representative Mason, of Illi-
nois, who said he wanted it for his lit
tie girl to preserve as a souvenir of the
Tariff law of 1890.

THE GERMAN IDEA.
One Of the Funny Incidents OF Edwin
Booths Continental Tour.

One OF the Funny Incidents OF Edwin
Booths Continental Tour.
Edwin Booth, when last in this city,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer, told q
good story connected with his profess
sional visit to Germany. In Berlin he
was billed to present Hamlet" and
during the performance, in the first in
terview with the players, he was utterly
astounded to see the First Actor come
on the stage made up as q very old man,
with q long flowing white beard, which
reached to his waist, making him look
like the traditional Hebrew patriarch.
Being unable to speak German and the
performer having no knowledge what
ever Of English, Mr.. Booth could not
ascertain the reason Of this extraordis
nary makeup. He was unable, however,
to master his curiosity In regard to it, so
after the representation he procured an
interpreter and proceeded to interview
the performer on the subject.
why on EARTH" asked Mr.. Booth,
did you make up 30 old for the First
Actor? In America he is always played
as q young man, and can not under
stand why he should be represented
otherwise"
"oh," replied the German, "Shalzes-
peare himself is my authority, for does
he not make Hamlet address the First
Actor as old friendP"
Mr.. Booth smiled and proceeded to ex-
plain that in English q man might be
called an old friend and yet be young,
but the German utterly failed to get 1t
through his head. Mr.. Booth afterward
ascertained that not only in Berlin. but
throughout Germany, where Shakes
peare's, plays are done more frequently
than in either England or the United
States, the First Actor had invariably
been made up as vefy aged because HAM
let styled him old friend.

THE APPEAL DENIED.
O'Brien and Dillon Must be Tried Before
the Sitting Magistrates.


DUBLIN, Oct. 2.-The High Court in
this city has refused to issue the
writ applied for by Mr.. Healy on behalf
of the defendants in the Tipperary
case, prohibiting the sitting judges
from proceeding in the trial of Dillon
and O'Brien on the ground of bias.
No further step can be taken, it, is
understood, with a view to changing
the magistrates before whom the hear
ing is to be continued: But the Ma
tionalists feel that their protests per-
sistently made against being tried by
magistrates whom they have reason to
much effect on public opinion. At.
tention has been strikipgly directed to
the composition of the court before
whom the political offenders, as the
Nationa1ists consider the arrested men,
are being tried.
