M'KINLEY's FINE HAND.

One of His Methods of protecting" an
Article Not Manufactured in This Coun-
try.
Interest in the Mckinley Tariff bill
has attracted attention away from the
other Mckinley bill which has already
become law. This is the so-called Gus
toms Administrative law, which was
passed several months ago, and which
went into operation on the Ist of Au-
gust.
This law relates only to the manner
of calculating and collecting duties but
it results in many cases in a very large
increase of the duties collected. Some
of the main features of the law are that
the duty must be collected not only on
the cost of the merchandise itself, but
also on the packages and on the cost of
freight on the other side for shipment
to the sea port; and furthermore it is
provided that nothing shall be allowed
for waste by breakage or otherwise.

THE FRENCH METHOD.
How to Set n House on Fire According tC
the Latest Plan.

How to Set House on Fire According to
the Latest Plan.
Very original was the mode adopted
recently by the inhabitant of a village
in the French provinces of setting fire
to his own house. Ere starting on a
short excursion he arranged a sort of
ontrivance in a loft at the top of his
abode, which, as he calculated, would
ere long have the effect of enveloping
the building in flames. Cats were in
the habit of visiting this attic, and the
crafty peasant accordingly reckoned on
their completely to aid him in carrying
out his plan. Strewing the contents of
half dozen boxes of matches on part of
the floor. he surrounded them with pa
per and other combustible materials.
Over the matches a rather heavy stone
was suspended from string, which in
it's turn was kept in its place by a bit OF
bacon fastened to its other end and act
ing as a knot All his measures having
been taken with due precaution, tho
willy countryman sailed forth, walking
in leisurely manner through the viii
lage and talking to his acquaintances-
Some hours after he had left smoke was
seen issuing from his house, and his
neighbOrs knowing that he was absent,
rushed in promptly, and displayed such
energy and zeal that the fire was soon
got under. 1t happened that they ar
rived in time to perceive some of the
matches lying about and a closer in
spection led them to detect the mode
which the absentee had employed for
burning his house down. Some time
after he had taken his departure one or
two members of the feline race, as he
had calculated, had made their appear
ance in the loft and, espying the bacon,
had tugged and nibbled at it until it no
longer served the purpose of keeping
the cord in its place. The stone had
fallen with bang on the matches, ig-
hitting them by the shock, and soon the
fire had spread to the paper and other
combustible material. The peasant had
proved right in his calculations, with
the single exception that he had not
taken into accaunt the zeal of his neigh
bors on his behalf He has been ar
rested.-London Telegraph.

Another Desperate Attempt to Wreck a
Train On the New York Central.
PoUGHKEEPsIE, N. Y, Sept "a
desperate attempt was made last night
to wreck the fast St Louis and Chicago
express, which leaves New York on the
New York Central at six p. m.
The train was stopped for danger
signal south of Old Troy, which is 300
yards south of the New Hamburg draw
bridge, as two minutes previous the
flagman had found several ties standing
endways in the curve near Old Troy,
and when he took hold OF one end of
them to remove them he was fred upon
from the bushes on the east side of the
track. Knowing that the fast express
was nearly due he ran southwark and
set the signal which stopped the train
The flagman said the ties stuck up above
the rails and would certainly have
thrown the train from the track.
The fast train was composed of seven
or eight sleeping cars all full, two Or
binary coaches and baggage car.
There were eight ties on the up main
track. There were also two ties placed
alongside of the rail towards the south
so as to ditch the train The train
passed here half an hour late.
