THE Galveston News makes this good point:
 Little by little the truth is gain ing ground and the farmers are finding out that protection means protection for the manufacturers alone and none for themselves in a word, that the law is solely for the benefit of a chosen few at the expense of the many. A Kansas farmer has just made a great dis covery which may open the eyes of his fellow farmers. He has had some practical dealings with the manufacturers, and tells what he found the result to be. "The mills at Atchison," he says, pay twenty cents bushel for choice white corn will not do custom work, and if we want a bushel of meal we have to pay fifty cents for it-twenty cents for corn and thirty cents for grind

A Good Name to Have.

In the year 1864, on the 5th day Of
December, the English ship Menai was
crossing the straits and capsized in .
gale. OF the 81 passengers on board but
| was saved; his name was Hugh Will
Jams. On the same day, in the year
1885, pleasure schooner was wrecked
on the Isle of Man. There were go per-
sons on the boat, among them one Hugh
Williams and his family. OF the three
score none but old Hugh Williams sur
viyed the shock. On the 5th day of Au-
gust, 1920, a picknicking party on the
Thames was run down by coal-barge.
There were 25 of the picknickers, mostly
children under twelve years of age.
Little Hugh Williams, a visitor from
Liverpool, only five years old, was the
only one that returned to tell the tale.
Now comes the most singular part Of
this singular story: On the 10th Of Au
gust, in the year of our Lord 1889, Q
Leeds coal-barge, with men fOundered
. of them, both Hugh Williams, an uncle
and nephew, were rescued by some fish
ermen. and were the only men of tn,
crew who lived to tell of the calamity
These are facts which can be suDstan

How He Paid the Lawyers Fee.

"My first case in San Francisco" said
Attorney James X. Wilder, twas the de-
Tense of o young follow charged with
stealing watch belonging to Catho-
lie priest. l was appointed by the
court because the prisoner said he had
no money.
"The jury returned a verdict of not
guilty, and as the defendant was leav-
ing the courtroom l called him back,
and just as a joke handed him my card
and told him to bring me around the
first $50 he got.
Next day he walked into my office
and planked down two $50 and $40.
Where did you get all that money?
l demanded, as soon as l got over my
surprise enough to speak.

as he bowed himself out."-San Fran.

THEY WANTED 1T SETTLED.

Providence will put some awful punish
ment on you to pay you for the way you
act. shouldn't be bit surprised to
wake up some morning and find you
cross-eyed or tongue-tied."
We said no more about it, but l took
measures to discover what he was up to.
He owned lot with an old, dilapidated
and untenanted house on it. He was
intending to give this house to any one
who would tear it down or remove it,
but humanitarian advanced a brighter
idea. He also owned an old house, but
it was occupied by four or five families.
He could get no rent, disliked the noto-
riety of ejecting them, and so he sug-
gested to Mr.. Bowser that our old shanty
be put in repair for the reception Of
some poor and worthy people he knew
of. Mr.. Bowser fell into the trap. He
bought lumber, hired carpenters and
had paid out two hundred dollars before
the house was habitable. He tried to
keep it all from me, but / kept posted
on the work, nevertheless. When every
thing was ready four families swarmed
into the house and blessed Mr.. Bowser.
When he came home that night his
heart was full, and after little Skin
mishing around he said:
"Mrs. Bowser, something happened to-
day to melt my heart"
Eyes. What was it?'
81 let four poor families move into
our old house over there, rent free, and
you ought to have heard them asking
Heaven to bless me. 1t made me feel
like woman-like child. l wish 1
was rich enough to help ten thousand
poor folks"
"Well, 1 hope they will appreciate
what you have done"
why, of course they will! Any one
of them would crawl on his hands and
knees for me-"
"But will they be satisfied with what
you have already done?"
There you goi If you had your way
about it you'd lock the doors and burn
'em all up! Satisfied OF course they
will be and are-more than sat"
The bell rang and the girl said it was
man to see Mr.. Bowser. He went to
the door and the caller said:
Had a deuce of time to find you,
old chap but I've finally hit it. Say,
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1890-02-19


"You are not thinking of running for
office again?"
He made no reply.
"Mr. Bowser, l hope you have too
much sense to go into the poultry bust
ness again"
Still silent.
"Or to buy another pig, or to repaint
the house, or change the carpets, or get
another flre-escape."
When we got seated at the dinner ia
BILE he queried:
Mrs. Bowser, what have you done for
charity this fall?"
81 have sent about one hundred dol
lars worth of money and clothing to our
poor relatives in Nebraska"
"Humph! l said charity"
SWELL, If you mean how many old
tramps have fed, how many beggars' bas-
kets have filled and how many quarters
have handed out to frauds / can an
swer you that they are very few. What
has started you on the subject of charity
all at once?"
'All at once? The subject has always
been of the deepest interest to me. l
have always felt sorry because l had SO
little to give"
"What you have given has only helped
some fraud along"
"What! What's that! Mrs. Bowser,
wouldn't have your heart for all the
money on earth! You suspect and mis-
trust every body. If you had your way
you'd hang or drown all the poor and
lowly simply because they hadn't
money. It's no wonder that poor men
and women avoid this street or SILVER
with fear as they hurry past our house"
"Mr. Bowser, you have a project on
hand"
81 have"
ut is connected with charity"
sit is"
"Very we'll. You will do as you are
mind to, of course, but it will come
out like your other philanthropic maneu-
vers "You new"
when did ever make move that
didn't come out all right?" he inter-
rupted, waving his knife in one hand
and his fork in the other.
"Oh, we'll, let's say no more about itP'
"You bet we won't! I was going to
ask your assistance in matter which
would have gratified and pleased you all
your life, but now l won't-not by a
dozen jugsful! You look out, old lady.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1890-02-19

DO you know my wife feels imposed
upon. You give that Clark family the
best rooms in the house and they are no
better than we are. I'll do my best to
coax the old woman to behave herself,
however, but you will have to come down
with some tin. want five dollars for
grub and fuel"
Mr.. Bowser gave it to him and hurried
him out OF the house. pretended not
to have noticed any thing, but he con-
tinued to look anxious until bedtime.
We were just through breakfast next
morning when woman came to the
door and inquired for Mr.. Bowser. As
he went into the hall she said:
''And is this the way you treat a poor
and unfortunate family"
"My good woman, what is it?"
"A good deal, sir. Only one pen
stock for four families to get water at,
and there's rats in your old shanty, sir
rats! And do you know we have no
wood to burn? Think of Christian
man expecting people to get along this
weather without wood"
He gave her some money and hurried
of, and they gave him rest for two or
three days. Then two women, who had
evidently been pulling hair all the way
over, reached our house as Mr.. Bowser
came up. They wanted something set
tied. They wanted it settled then and
there. They didn't care so much about
the absence of door-plate, but, as one
of them demanded:
"We want toknow, sir, who towns them
front door-steps, and whose children
have the right to knock out the window
CLASP"
don't know how he settled it. When
he came in he looked so uncomfortable
that l did not ask any questions. Next
day there was man to see him, and on
the day following woman came to
make complaint, and for six weeks
hardly day passed that some Of his
free tenants did not show up on one ex-
cuse or another. The last one came
from a whole family-husband wife and
five children. We were in bed when
they came. They pulled the bell until
Mr.. Bowser raised a window and asked
what was wanted.
"We want you to come down." replied
the man.
Sand give an account of yourselfr'
added the woman.
Mr.. Bowser went down. They gave
him fits about the water, the stairs, the
front gate, the wood-shed, tho cellar
and the ceilings. They wanted all the
other families turned out, the street
paved, the house painted and the rooms
papered. They were out of meat, pota-
toes, wood and -four. He argued and
discussed, and finally told them to 60 to
the county house. At this they all
jumped for him, and nothing but a
strong door saved him from violence.
"Was it some one who wanted the doc
tor?" l asked, as he came upstairs.
MRS. Bowser, do you hear me?" he
replied, as he struck an attitude under
the dim gas-light.
81 do"
"Then let me warn you that this has
gone far enough! I am done with
charity! If you ever get me into another
such scrape you'll hear from my lawyer
as soon as I can file bill!"
"But didn't GET
"That's enough! You'd squirm out OF
knot hole! I'll 60 over and set fire to
the whole business tomorrow
But that very night the old house
burned to the ground, and Mr.. Bowsei
didn't express his qualification that all
the inmates escaped in safety.-Detroit
