HIS ORIGINAL IDEA.

II Was Good Rut Failed to Produce . Gin.

''Show that fellow up said the pres
ident Of the sugar trust, speaking to I
footman. ''IIe has been bothering me
every day for week. Tell him to come
up"
A few moments later . tall man,
with half-serious, half-comi1al ex-
prcssion Of countenance, was shown into
the Office.
What do you want with me7' the
president asked.
May sit DOWN."
Eyes, but be brief.'

about getting up?''
both, the president answered.
THANK YOU"
The visitor sat down, and, after . few
moments Of apparently deep thought,
remarked: Now, what am going to say
may sound peculiar to you, but I think
you will find information in 1t. l have
been intending for some time to express
myself to some thoughtful man and
have finally settled upon you."
swell, hurry up"
"All right. Now, let me lead on BY
asking you startling question: "What's
the name Of this city?'
Chicago, of course"
why Of course?"
because it is. Are you crazy?"
mo, far from 1t. You say that this
town is Chicago, but what have you to
go by? Is the name posted upon the
town? Is It not simply matter Of ira.
ditioA? One generation calls this Chi
cago and generations far In the future
will continue to do 30, without other as
surance than tradition. London Is
managed in the same way, but there is
no name on the town. You say that you
want to 60 to London. You get on .
ship. you sail, you land and then get on
railway train. You arc told that you
are in London, and you get on and find
yourself In city, but you have no proof
that 1t Is London; 50. you SEQ, we must
throughout life depend on hcarsay and
tradition. But 1t is not SO with the vii
lage. Out here at railway station the
name OF the place Is nailed up over the
station-house door, informing every
man that he is in Hornville. Are you
convinced?'
That's all right, you may CO.,
"Yes, but have I not given you infor-
mation-have not caused you to Think
"Yes, you may CO."
"Ah, but do you not pay for new
idea? Is il possible that you would rob
me Of the fruits Of my brain?'
'sShow this man out"
Il demand one dollar for the original
idea which l have given you"
''Show him out, say"
"Ah, it's thus that the trust robs the
American brain. But will be avenged

is the ORGANIZATION that has nnsbed
| this PROPOSITION for an increased duty
Ion wool and If the members of that
ASSOCIATION conld he subiected 70 n
cross-examination Il would doubtless
be found that their interests are com
mercial rather than agricultural.
A brief review of the history of wool
under the protective system will
show that the proposed legislation
will not only not benefit the farmer.
but that Il Is hostile To his interests
During the last twenty wears wool
has been protected. Under the pres
ent law the average rate of duty on
unwashed wool is 42i per cent, on
washed wool 81 per cent. Certainly,
| If duty on wool helps the farmer,
the present rate is high enough to il
lustrate the benefits the farmer may
reasonably expect from the system.
Twenty years is surely long enough
in which to make fair test, and if
what protectionists claim is true we
ought to find the farmer with increas-
ing focks and receiving better prices
for his wool.
True there has been an increase in
the number of sheen in the limited
States in the last twenty wears but

WARRINGTON, Feb. 19.-For half An hour
discussed propositions looking to- more
rigid enforcement of the rule prohibiting the
disclosure of proceedins Of the senate In ex-
ecutive session. The reports Of the action of
the body upon the British extradition treaty
yesterday, printed in the papers to-day, was
the cause Of the suggestion being considered
to-day. Among the measures suggested %
likely to accomplish the desired end was one
to entirely clear the senate wing OF the Cap
itol during executive sessions OF all persons
except senators and those employees whose
duties require them to be present. One sem
ator was of the opinion that the committee
on rules should investigate the subject and
report what is necessary to secure the desired
privacy of proceedings, but this was not
pressed inasmuch a. . resolution providing
for an investigation had already been
referred upon another committee
based on reports of the action OF the senate
ON Commissioner Morgan's nomination. An
other senator expressed the opinion that the
senate ought either to secure absolute secrecy
through it, members and employees or else
arrange to furnish q statement OF business
transacted for publication under the present
condition of things. Injustice Is often done
to senator by the publication of false re-
port respecting his action in the senate and
he is compelled to suffer under 1t, being pre-
cluded from asking or marking correction.
The senate adjourned without taking any
action. A sentiment Il growing among the
members in favor Of the position taken by
Senators Teller and Plat that nominations
should be considered in legislative session or
| II that cannot be done, of making public al
once the action of tho senate thereon.

in tho murder of Miss Alafair Mccoy and

After the execution the officers discovered

suited in the escape of the prisoner and the
probable death Of number Of the guards Of
the jail. Through the confession Of the jail
cook the discovery was made. The
Hat6elds had paid the cook 5000 to place a
drug in the food of the Jail guards the night
before the execution. The cook was told that
the drug that was given her was merely to
make the guards 60 to sleep.
She became suspicious and concluded to
try the effects of the preparation on the jail
cat. The result was the death OF
the animal in horrible agony. She
| then became alarmed and refused
to put the poison into tho food. Sh,
did not communicate her intentions, however,
to the outlaws and they gathered near the jai
to await the signal which would indicate the
guards were sick within.
Had this wholesale attempt at murder beer
successful, not only the prisoners in tn,
prison would have been killed from tn
effects of the poison, but also the sheriff
family and posse.
The drug was found to be strychnine. TIL,
cook was Immediately arrested. All the out
