The Dreamy Cuban woman.

The Cuban woman goes through the
world in any easy, shiftless sort Of a
way, lounges only too gla cefully in a
hammock or Tolls in her rocking chair,
her mind intent on only one idea
how to keep cool. The grace of the
oma is set off by the marvellous
way with which she uses her fan. Not
for a moment is it at rest; it flutters,
waves idly, is opened and shut in the
space of a second; falls to the side,
and again rises to take q part
in the conversation. The type of
the face which beams above
every fan in Cuban high life is diff
cult to describe. The complexion va
ries from olive to white; deep black
hair is the prevalent hue, but the
eyesl Luminous, dreamy, SO large,
dark and vivid. La Senorita, with
her certain childlilSe f~rankness, but
with q provoking richness and fire Of
nature in her features, ~ensnares many
a heart as she sits at her open window
twirling her fan and watching the
curling smoke from her cigarette, and.
while she is kept under the strictest
surveillance, she is a woman and ro-
mantle, and many are the proofs that
stone walls do not u prison max {. ~

The Indecent Appointments of q Consul
to Stoke, England.

to Stoke, England.
(Frons the Trenton Emporium.)
Our fellow townsman, William Bur-
CESS, who went OFF to England with such
a flourish as Consul at Stoke, is likely to
return without fulfilling any of the
duties of that position, according to a
despatch from London yesterday. 1t
states:-
The Harrison administration has a nice
middle on It's hands in the Consular APP
pointment to Stoke, which is tho centre
of the pottery district. President Cleve-
land filled this important post with Mr..
~Schoenhof, a wellknown writer on politi-
cal economy, whom Protectionists were
anxious to get speedily recalled. Presi
dent Harrison removed Schoenhof and
gave the place to William Burgess, of
Trenton, N. j.. The London Foreign
Office, through the medium OF the Home
Office, wrote to the municipal authorities
OF Stoke to enquire IL sfhere were n
local objections to the Burgess appoint
ment. The reply C lme that while there
was no decided opposition to Burgess,
the merchants would prefer the appoint
ment of a man wno had not himself a
large capital invested in the manufacture
of pottery in America This reply led to
a correspondence between the British
II American governments, which is still
undecided. Burgess is now at Leaning
ton without his exequatur. ~Schoenhof,
although superseded, is still in posses
sion. With the exec ption of Mr.. Grin
nell, whom President Cleveland kept in
Office to favor Vice President Levi p.
Morton, Schoenhof and Ben Folsom are
the only two of Mr.. Cieyeland's Consuls
left in England. Folsom will be retained
IN Sheffield. He sails for America soon,
however, on q leave of absence. Schoen-
hof will probably stay at Stoke until
Mr.. Harrison appoints ONE other man
than Burgess.

work for women.

In many parts of the country wo-
men are very successful as gardeners
or florists, and taking the risk Of pre-
carious weather, wet and dry sea-
sons, &c, the poultry business stands
in advance of either of those occupa-
tions. Eggs will always sell and a
fine fat chick is always wanted. IL it
is possible, keep some distinct breed,
as the keeping costs no more and the
margins Of profit are larger when
choice fowls take the place of the riff
raft stock.
We are glad to be able to say there
are many already in the poultry bust
ness who have not only made money
by this means, but have gained and
regained health and strength, the
greatest of all earthly blessings. This
is one side of the question.
Many rome Of moderate means
have found it more difficult, in these
last hard years, to get a living than
the men even. II this paper fall
under the eye of any such, we say to
them try poultry keeping" The
first outlay need not be large, and the
occupation is just suited to woman.
Gentleness is more needed than
strength, and the first quality is
essentially woman's. -Amer5cdn Postl-

The Deadly Mckinley Bill.

The meeting of merchants in Phila-
delphia, yesterday, to protest against
the Mckinley tariff bill was one of the
most remarkable demonstrations that
the country has seen in recent years.
In a stronghold of Republicanism, in
the fortress of protection, in the home
of Samuel Randall and John
d.. Kelley, in one of the great
est manufacturing cities, and the
capital of the greatest manufactur-
ing state of the Union, it was a tre-
mendous protest against the deadly
policy Of exclusion which the national
leaders of the Republican party seem
bent on adopting. If popular will
and public opinion have any weight
with the people who now govern us,
we should think this mighty protest
would deter them from the passage of
the proposed law.
In truth, our manufactures no long
er need any great measure of protec-
tion. On the whole, they are con-
Quoted under the most favorable cir
cumstances Of any in the world. The
cheapness of most raw materials, the
intelligent skill and cheerful activity
of American workmen. the perfection
OF American machinery, and the enor-
nous home consumption of manufac-
tured wares give producers in this
country enormous initial advantages.
The fact is recognized abroad, and is
one OF the main reasons why foreign
capital pours in floods into this coun-
try to develop its manufactures, its
railroads and its farms.
1t must be observed, at this point,
that this influx Of foreign capital is OF
the most tremendous benefit to this
country. We are the people who
chiefly profit by it. Its presence in
creases our national wealth. It's cir
culation furnishes income to our
workmen. In particular that part of
It which has gone to develop the great
West has added to our national pros
perity.
But its tendency towards this
country is the result mainly of
commercial reciprocity. English
capital is invested, for instance
in the raising of American cattle, in
the construction of railroads and
steamships to transport them to the
~seacoast and to England for English
consumption almost entirely on the
theory that England will in due
time pay for the cattle with woollens
and linens, and knives and spoons,
and innumerable other articles which
are the specialties of her industry and
in which she far exceIs us.
The English market for cereals
has been greatly damaged by another
phase of onr national blindness. Rail-
way greed has gone far toward driv-
ing Great Britain to Egypt and
Russia for her supply. We have nc
longer q monopoly Of the European

NORA WAS HER NAME.
Story Of a Boniface Who Was Anxi-
GUS for an Heir.

1t would appear from the stories Of
travelling men that the jolly 'Boni-
facen is not by any means an extinct
species, for many Of the yarns they
hear are from the lips Of the good
natured country hotel keeper, who is
often found cute enough to make up
for lack of accommodations by a flow
of witty chit-chat and a never-ending
series of good stories. One of the
travellers in the group told about
q hotel man down in Southern
Illinois named Mortridge. The one
great yawning desire in Mr.. Mort
ridges life was for a son and heir to
succeed him in charge OF the hotel,
which had been in the family for
many years. He was always lament
ing that he had no children, and es-
pecially a boy whom he could call
Ira This name was in his mind
for years and his friends and guests
would often hear him say what he
would do if he only had his boy Ira.
Well along in middle life, however,
fate did smile ON the childless couple,
but it was an heiress instead of an
heir that came to bless them. Mr..

first, and his friends who knew of his
fancy for the name of Ira chaffed him
not a little. The week went by and
grew into months and the little girl
remained unchristened, until one
Sunday when the worshippers in the
little country church were aroused to
interest by hearing the minister an
nounce just before pronouncing the
benediction that a child was to be
christened at the close of the service.
The interest was greatly increased
when the minister ceased speaking
and they saw Mr.. Mortridge, with his
wife, walk up the aisle, carrying their
babe in his arms. The preacher took
it from him, and then the people
waited breathlessly to hear what the
name would be. As the minister
asked the question Mr.. Mortridge said
in a clear tone. heard all over the
church, "Noira.p He had been study

A Costly Private nransion.

The largest and costliest private
mansion in the world is said to be
that belonging to Lord Butte, called
ssMontstuart,n and situated near
Rothsay. 1t covers nearly two acres
and is built in Gothic style; the walls,
turrets and balconies being of stone.
The immense tower in the centre of
the building is 1870 feet high, with a
balcony round the top. The halls are
constructed entirely of marble and
alabaster; all the rooms are finished
in mahogany, rosewood and walnut;
the fireplaces are all carved marbles
of antique designs. The exact cost of
this palace is not known, but it has
q been estimated at less than
So coo, 600. This proves the greater
purchasingp power Of money in Europe,
since the New York Court House cost
about that sum and is a mere shanty
