CHICAGO, April 1s.-A maniac made a
desperate assault with butcher knife

ugly stab in the arm; Henry Patno,
whose cheek was laid open to the bone,
and his upper lip was cut off; Thomas
Brennan, who was cut across the top of
the head, and Ben Sweeney, who re.
ceived a slight cut on the left forearm.

ry burdens in the way of direct tax should
be removed, and that the encouragement re-
Qured to induce the production of sugar in
the United States should be given through a
bounty rather than - an import duty
Coming to agi cultural products the COM
mittee says it has given months to the in
vestigation of existing conditions of agri-
cultural products, etc. 1t says: "There is
widespread depression in this industry to-
day beyond doubt. Every remedy within
your committee has been recommended in
the proposed measure to meet the urgent
requirements of the situation"
The report further says: "a critical exam
ination of the subject will show that agri
culture is suffering chiefly from a most dam
aging foreign competition in our home mar
ket. he increase in Importation of agri-
cultural products since 1850 has been
enormous, amounting from $40, 600 900 to more
than 1856, 0G0, 900 in 1889. he worlds market,
t. which the advocates of tariff for revenue
only invite the farmers of this country, is to-
day crowded with the products of the cheap
est human labor the earth affords. All over
the world there is a rush of their surplus to
that market and it is to such ntest as
this that free trade would allure agriculture.
With foreign grain market under the sway
of such depression, with the cattle and pork
market depressed and other ruinous meas
ures of destruction, with foreign agricultural
products crowding our home market your
committee have recommended an increase
upon agricultural products"
With view to increasing the number of
gainful occupations open to the farmer the
committee recommend a bounty to the grow
ers of silk. Reference Is made in the report
of the successful experiments in silk grow
ing in the Agricultural Department. which
fully warrant the belief that the industry is
practicable in many of the States.
In conclusion, the committee saws the In
creased duties will reduce impOrtations and
American farmers will hold their own mar
kets.

1.-THE Mckinley bill will raise the
prices of all our goods said Mr.. Har.
mon. sit will raise the prices of wool.
ems and linens more than cottons, but
will make every thing dearer. This
bill lays more specific duties than any
other tariff measure, and specific duties
always increase the prices on lower
grades of goods. The poorer people
who buy them will feel the tariff more
than the wealthier classes"

The Question of Chaperons.

Of ali tho amusing and ridiculous fads
Of society, the idea that girl cannot go
about the thoroughfares of New York
without maid is the most absurd. At
luncheon the other day the question Of
a young girl Of IS going alone IL walk or
shop was quite vehemently discussed,
and not a little feeling was shown in the
argument. Why a wei conducted young
woman should require guardian on
Fifth avenue or Broadway it is difficult
to say, but it seems that nowadays a
girl Of fashion requires 70 have a maid
or some other protector with her. Are
the girls less to be trusted than their
own mothers were in their young days?
Or is it simply a ridiculous fad and for
eign imitation? There Is no reason why
dignifed, well bred American girl
should not go by herself TO any respecta-
bic part Of New York, and to argue the
contrary places the young lady in dis
advantageous light with all sensible
people.-New York Tribune.

The Study of Grace.

Society girls have taken up the study
Of grace, which consists in being gently
Eerpentine. To attain this undulating
walk the head must remain firm, the
shoulders droop and the movement come
from the hips. In this way there will be
no tossing or shaking of the skirts, and
the willowy, swaying motion at the
waist will emphasize the snake effect
sought. For the cultivation Of this in
defnable charm, walking next to dane
ing is the best exercise, as it brings the
muscles into fairly uniform action. The
undulations made by the head, chest and
torso in a vertical plane are not only pro-
ductive Of Hogarth's line of beauty but
tend to perfect physical health.
Grace is such an indescribGble thing
that negatives aid in the definition. II
is not graceful to walk on the heels, to
take long strides or to raise the foot from
the ground more than two inches; it is
not graceful TO stump or TO lay the foot
down with a defiant or resounding noise;
1t IS not graceful TO square the shoulders
soldier fashion or to set the elbows akin
DO, as in driving; It is not graceful to
hurry, hustle or fuss, for speed is not
conducive 10 grace of motion save among
thoroughbreds. Another foe of grace is
self consciousness. The really pleasing,
graceful, gracious woman rises above
her raiments, and once her toilet is COM
plete she gives no more thought TO it.

Comfort in Old Clothes.
