TOM AND KITTY.

Where two white cots o'erarched with shade
Their pale blue smoke wreaths blent
There played and strayed a boy and maid
Companions well content.
Together schoolward, shine or wet,
They trudged the cart ruts through;
Above one book their ringlets met;
One apple served the two.
And oft across the hedge you'd hear,
Or through the door ajar,
els Tommy herel-then, never fearl
My Kitty won't be far"
II Tommy's knuckles CHANGED to ache
As schoolboys' knuckles do.
The dominic, for PHYS sake,
Would Mobile Kitty's, too.
When Tommy tumbled in the pond,
And gasped with horror mute,
His playmate fond his visage conned,
Then promptly followed suit.
When Tommy smoked beneath the rick
His furtive first cigar,
They both crawled homeward, deadly sick
For Kitty was not far.
But years flowed by with silent stream,
And work must follow play;
Behind them like land Of dream
Their vale of childhood lay.
Her needle now must Kitty ply,
To earn an humble fee;
And Tom must sigh long good-by-
For Tom is of to sea-
Tonight" she sobbed, you'll sail away
Beyond the harbor bar;
But when you pray, look up and say:
My Kitty is not far. "
Two years went by-for him, two years
OF range and change and stir;
OF hopes and fears, Of pray'rs and tears,
And patient toll for her.
And then beside the old lych gate,
Two neighbors, looking out,
Beheld a sailor walk and wait
a CHEEKY lad and stout.
"'Tis Tom," one said; hes getting we'd
God bless the honest tarI'
The other gravely shook her head:
Then Kitty won be far"

The victims were: Capt. Richard f.
Voolfolk, ST., and wife, their children
Richard, F.. Jr.. Susan, Pearl. Annie,
Rosebud, Charlie and Matte, and Mrs.
Welt, aged 81. The scene of the crime
was the Voolfolk homestead country
farmhouse. The first alarm OF the trag
edy came from Tom Voolfolk, the only
survivor of the family. The news of the
terrible crime rapidly spread and soon a
great crowd gathered around the place.
Nine dead bodies were found lying in hor
rible confusion IN the house, every one
brained with an Ike. Nothing in the
house had been disturbed. IL was evil
dent the crime was not committed for
robbery. Voolfolk account of the crime
was unsatisfactory and suspicion quickly
fell on him as the murderer. He was ar
rested. The motive for the crime was
found in Toms enmity for his step

possession of his fathers property. Wool

THE GRAND OLD MAN.
He Addresses An Audience On
the Mckinley Bill.
How 1t Is Liable to Affect
Both Countries.
Minister Lincoln Starts on a
Visit Home.
Gladstone on the MCKINNEY Bin.

IN ~ ~
LONDON, Oct. 2n.-Gladstone arrived
a; Dundee today and was presented with
the freedom Of the city. He made an
address in which he referred to the com
merce OF the city which it was said was
threatened by the adoption Of the new
American tariff. He would not. however,
he said, bring a railing accusation against
the people of the United States. Pro-
lection, although it might infict inciden-
tai collateral blows on other countries, did
far greater mischief to the people of the
country which adopted such a policy.
Gladstone then proceeded to contrast the
decrease in the tariff in England with
the increase in the United States and
said he fund comfort for England in the
TACT it was not true any tariff adopted By
any government on earth could seriously
interfere with Great Britain. The
first effect of the Mckinley bill would be
10 raise the standard of prices in the
United States. This meant diminished
power ofexportation. This again meant
while we were damaged in one of our TWEEN
~ markets we derived benefit in the nlne-
teen from the diminished power OF the
merchants of the United States to COM
pete with British merchants in any of
them. this being due to the augmentation
of prices in the United States and the
Increased restraints under which the mer-
chants Of the latter country have to work.
He advised the manufacturers to allow
America to find out for herself the evil
effects that will follow the adoption of the
high tariff.
Gladstone deprecated the idea of a
Wolverine OF the whole British empire.
slncludIng the colonies and dependencies
against all foreign countries. He doubted
much whether the whole empire would
consent. Furthermore, although it would
to some extent enlarge the commerce of
the colonies, it would contract it with the
rest of the world The imperial com
merce Is now GlS7, 000, 900 yearly and
the foreign commercs 1854. 900, 900. One
effect of the Mckinley tariff would be to
direct the attention of the British manu-
tacturer toward the production of the
finer classes of goods because these bore
the least iDtolerable protective duties.
The result would be to elevate and i'm
prove the taste of the British manufac-
turers, spur them on aud stimulate their
ingenuity. The probable tendency among
sAo hHiSIiOaus Noulu Dc toNaIu Tue ulanu-
tacture of the coirser goods, thus degrad-
ing their productions.
The word protection was a %misnomer:
1t ought to be oppression. 1t is a
delusion and a fraud. America was the
country that could best afford to try this
strange and astonishing experiment. Her
natural wealth, soil. minerals and immense
territory made her a world in herself.
The possession OF these enormous ad-
vantages helped to disguise the truth
from the Americans. but the Mckinley
law would involve a fearful waste of
resources by which the people ought to
be made strong and happy.

double that OF any former season. As to
