JAY GOULD AND THE MKINLEY BILL.
To the Editor OF THE ADVOCATES
In late interview concerning the ef-
ieCts Of the changes in the tariff laws, as
brought about by the Mckinley bill, Jay
Gould is reported as saying, "If II in
Creases the cost OF some articles, people
will simply use less Of them. Take wool
for instance. II the tariff on wool makes
clothing cost more, then person will
get along with one suit where he would
otherwise have two"
Which person does he meant Does he
speak Of himself and other millionalres
who can have two suits or twenty, just
as the notion may seize them, tariff or no
tariff? If so, then it would not matter If
one suit were dropped. But II he means
TO include the thousands Of honest, In
dustrious men, who, because Of the Rb
sorption Of everything by such mOnopo-
lists as Gould, could afford but one wool
suit before the additional duty was put
on It, II his advice is taken and they get
along with one suit less, there will GER
tainly be a great demand for bear skins
before the coming winter Is over.
Mr.. Gould could do with one or two
suits less and not be embarrassed, but
you all know what what pItiful specta-
Gle thousands OF worthy men, who are
not SO fortunate as Jay, would make in
January il they should be compelled 70
get along with one suit less.
Gould also said: "ITon may be taken
as an example. Despite the reductions,
the iron indu stries Of the this country
will prosper. The tariff on steel rails ls
reduced TO $5 per ton"
This 10 such good news TO Mr.. Gould
that he could not refrain from mention
ing II. That was truly benevolent In our
great Mckinley and his colleagues TO re.
duce the tariff on steel rails, 80 that the
poor, down-trodden mRgnates like Gould
can get steel rails for their railroads
little cheaper. This had to be done or

OF the rich, and they alone, the people
are being legislated out Of their homes,
out Of decent and comfortable clothing,
out Of all the little luxuries and COM
forts that all appreciate and long for as
much as Gould or Vanderbilt. This Is
all wrong and must be righted. A very
few are getting vastly too much, while
great multlMdes, as good and deserving
in every way 40 the others, are losing
everything that is necessary 10 make life
worth living.
AT the late elections the people have
spoken. The commotion has been likened
to q cyclone. This result is only as a

But Her Lover Never Came-He Had
Been Run In.
She is waiting in the darkness, she is
waiting by the door, and she hears the sad
sea moaning as it beats the sandy shore;
and she hears the night-bird crying, and
the wailing of the trees, and upon her fe-
vered forehead gently blows the southern
breeze; but in vain she stands and listens
for the coming of the one who to her is
prince and hero. who is brighter than the
sun. Close the door, o weeping lady, close
the door and weep alone, to the signing of
the branches, to the oceans sullen moan.
to the screaming of the night-bird, to the
sobbing of the rain, as it falls
like tears from heaven, splashing
on the window-pane. Let your
eyes this night be rivers and your hair a
mourning veil, let your soul float out to
heaven in a wild, despairing wall; for the
footsteps of your hero do echo on the shore.
and tonight you'll never see him though
you're waiting by the door; and you will
not hear the music of the voice You love so
WE'LL YOU will only hear the moaning Of the
oceans restless swell. Close the door, o
weeping lady, look no more for him you
love, better look for hope and comfort to
the sombre sky above; to your side your
love and hero all your watching cannot win.

an ice axe on the edge of the crevasse,

A rope was let down which Linda was for

With difficulty he was raised to the mouth
of the crevasse, but, being very heavy

enough to bring him to the surface. 1t was

doubtful.
During the seventy-two hours Linda
WAS in the crevasse he had no food. for he
was SO tightly jammed between the walls of
ice he could not get at the provisions he
carried on his back. He was, however, able
to lick the ice with his tongue. It is esti-
mated that he was found at depth of fifty
feet. No one will be surprised to hear that
his hands and feet are terribly frostbitten.

Man Fast Held In Wise of Ice for Three
Days.
The following account of the escape of
Christian Linda, Lauterbrunnen guide,
was sent to the London Times by CORE
spondent at Murren:
"Linda having accompanied gentleman
az second guide over the Tschingel glacier,
was dismissed at the village of Ried, his
services being no longer required. He left
Ried on Sunday, the 9th inst. at daybreak
alone, with the object of returning to Leu
terbrunnen. He crossed the Petersgrat,
and, instead of taking the route of the
Tschingel Pass. he chose the shorter one
across the glacier between the Mutthorn
and the TschinRelhorn. where he fell into q
crevasse about seven or eight a. m. on Sun

haste to reach the beach near the glaciers

with spirits startled and skirts soiled. The

glistening ice. We pass along the gray and
brown moraine's front of frozen mud and

the bay.

THE DOCTOR HAD TO MOVE.

He stopped the BOOSTERS. But Then Came
the Parrots.
Next to a dog that amuses himself by
barking all night, rooster that persists in
exercising his voice is natures own nuis-
ance especially when the rooster lives in
town, says the Philadelphia Press. A
banker who used to live next door to DR..
White just beyond the city line, owned two
little Bantam ROSTERS, that he had taught
to crow for grain of corn. He would take
a doubIe-handful of corn out into his back
porch, lift his hand, and the chickens would
crow. Then he gave grain to each of
them, This was continued until all the
corn was exhausted and the ROSTERS hoarse.
This sort of thing annoyed DR.. White. One
day medical student dropped into his
Office about the time the serenade began.
I'D give $5 to shut off that nolse," said
the doctor.
you can do it for less than that" said
the student. "Why don't you entice them
into your back yard some time when old
Rufe is down town, catch them and cut
their vocal chords2"
around tomorrow at II o'clock and assist
me in the operation"
The next day at the appointed hour the
student was at the Office on time; SO were
the ROSTERS,
Within two minutes one vocal chord Of
each chicken was cut, and then the bird
were tossed over the fence to their home.
At noon the owner came out on his porch
for his daily amusement. White and the
student watched him through crack in the
fence. He lifted his hand and the little
squallers reared back and went through the
motions but did not utter sound.
The banker lifted his hand again with
the same result. He went out into the yard
and walked around his pets, but he couldn't
see anything wrong.
Then he called his wife, and the two
made a critical examination. He made
them go through their pantomime for an
hour and got disguised. He tried it
every day for week and then killed the
ROSTERS and ate them. When he found
out six months afterward what White had
done, he bought two large, donkey-voice
parrots, trained them TO say: g. DR..
White" and white 10 an ASST and hung
their cages on his back porch.
Then DIR. White moved.
