Glass Eyes in Paris.

The Paris trade in glass eyes must
be n very rich one, for every week
there are nearly n thousand enamel
ewes made in Paris. The manufac-
turers generally select a one eyed

best articles Of their manufacture.

postmistress. There was feeling Of
outrage against him, and n number
Of young men, including Cothan's
son, went TO Finley's house one
night and made n demonstration
not for the purpose Of doing him
any harm. With guilty conscience
he ran out Of the back door and, in
jumping down, broke his leg. The
young men sent for physician and
paid all the expenses.
Rogers lArkansasl called atten-
ton 10 the fact that, under leave TO
print, Kelley had printed on the
records vile calumnies on the State
of Arkansas, and proceeded to
score Kelly sharply. He read long
list Of Kansas outrages and asked
if il wasn't time that Kelley should
exercise his business intellect in
home missions. In the course Of
his remarks he bitterly assaulted
''Poker Jack" Mcclure, who had
been appointed TO conduct 4 certain
government case in Arkansas.
Featherstone (Arkansasl replied
sharply 10 Rogers, defending Judge
Mcclure and Powell Clayton. He
(Featherstone) was not here TO de-
fame Arkansas, but it seemed to be
a crime 10 tell the truth. The patty
in power in Arkansas TESTED its
power not on the votes Of an honest
majority, but on stuffed ballot boxes.
Pending further discussion the
committee rose, and the House adj
journed.

Cnnnan.s Discrimination.

WASHINGTON, April o. Senator
CullOm has concluded his report
upon The investigation made by the
committee on Interstate commerce
into the relations Of the railroads Of
the United States and Canada, and
also whether there is any Jiscrimina-
ton in charges made for tolls against
United States vesselspassing through
the Welland and st. Lawrence ca
mails. The report asserts that unjust
discrimination Is made by Canada
against American vessels on the
lakes in the matter Of entrance and
clearance fees. Vessels passing
through the WeIIand canal bound to
Montreal have 4 rebate made Of n
portion Of the tolls paid for canal
passage, but IL bound 20 any Ameri-
can port OF TO the st. Lawrence
river no rebate is made. This, the
report claims, is a violation Of the
provisions Of the treaty OF Wash
ington. In conclusion, the report
says:
"Thus il is that by attacking the
narrow margins of profits in the
transportation business here and
there our competitors at the north
have been damaging American
commerce for many years. tbs do
ing that very thing today, in = more
high-handed and exultant way than
ever before. The government of
Great Britain, or Of Canada, desire
to throw sufficient advantage in IA
vor Of British steamers, Canadian
fishing vessels and Canadian rail-
roads 10 turn our commerce from
American ocean steamers, Ameri-
can fishing vessels, American rail-
roads and American seaports."

House.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-Hoar
(Pa.l presented n memorial Of the
Manufacturers Club, Philadelphia,
in favor Of prompt action on tariff
legislation which shall check the
importation of articles produced by
our own people. Referred.
he House then vent into COM
mittee Of the whole on the legisla-
tive appropriation bill, the pending
question being a motion to strike
out the clause providing clerks for
senators. LOst-s5 to 81.
In speaking on the verbal amend
ment Kelley kan replied to a re-
mark by Allen to the effect that
some newly-app0inted postmasters
in Mississippi had moved their Off
ces into the country, by saying that
he learned at the Postoflice DEPART
ment that in some places il was i'm
possible for a republican postmaster
to secure a location in town and he
was obliged to go to the country. He
also read a letter from Postmaster
Finley, at Abbeville, 5. c., stating
that shortly after his appointment
he was set upon by a mob, led by
son Of Congressman COthran, beat
en- with barbed wires and ordered 10
leave town.
This provoked n heated political
debate. Enloe asked IL Kelley
wrote the letter for the postmaster
and Kelley replied he had. because,
on account Of the beating received
Finley's arm is paralyzed.
These statements were received
with much derisive laughter on the
democratic side, which led Rowell
Ulls.) TO remark that the gentlemen
on the other side thought IL was
funny 10 hear accounts OF murders
and beating with harbed wires.
Kelley proceeded to read from
letters Of southern postmasters TO
First Assistant Postmaster General
ClarksOn, complaining OF outrages.
In the discussion Tarsney asked
about the litigation going on be-
tween Kelley and his son against
a colored congregation in Fort
Smith to prevent the erection Of n
colOred church ON the ground that
il was n nuisance.
Kelley denied any such litigation,
and said he did not own any land in
Arkansas. Mcltae and Rogers, how
ever, stated that Kelley's son was
involved in such litigation.
Allon Mississippi said the gen.
tleman from Kansas seemed to be
the recognized mouthpiece Of the
Postoflice Department Of the admin
istration. There had never been
time in the history of the g. o. p
when southern outrages were more
necessary for the purposes Of that
party. IL had gone TO the wall on
the tariff, busted higher than Kite
on the civil service; the elections
were going against it, and If il
could not carry the election on
southern outrages, the chances OF
the q. o. +. were gone. He had in
his desk long list of Kansas out
RACES, but would not descend to
that sort of debate. Cothran,
South Carolina) speaking of the
Abbeville matter, said that after the
war a northern man was appointed
as postmaster and served I'M
til Arthur's term, when he
died, and his widow sue
ceeded him. When this admiEIstra-
ton came in Finley fled an nppli-
cation in which he misrepresantesI

John Chinaman's Dict.

There is a time-hOnOred impress
sion TO tine effect that the average
Chinaman can live on next 10
nothing, can eat anything, and can
grow fat on n diet which would
starve other men. 1t j. almost cruel
TO n set old traditions, but il local
merchant speaks Truly there is very
little in this particular tradition.
slt's all b0sh, this talk OF China
men living on a bit Of rice or some
thing Of that sort. " said n gestleman
to a New York Nail reporter.
"It Is true that the Chinese are
frugal and that they DO not throw
money away. But Il is not true,
however, that they starve them
selves. | have had a good deal TO do
with them, and | am free TO say
that they are better customers than
a good many OF their. critics. China
men like good food as well as
other people, and If they can
afford to buy it they have ii.
They are 81 constituted that they do
not require as much OF certain kinds
Of food rs DO Americans, but do not
for a moment imagine that they do
not know what good food is, or that
they cannot enjoy il rs much as
other men. What is more, when
John buys he buys the best article
Of its kind in the market and pays
the best price. He has his own
daunties, which he gets at the Chi
nese groceries, but he is also partial
TO some OF the goods sold in Ameri-
can stores.
Il am Of the opinion that the
Chinese, as n rule, have better food,
and perhaps more Of it, than most Of
our ordinary laborers, for most Chi
nancn have money, and most OF
them spend IL more freely than the
general public believe.
'sNO, SIR, A." continued the speaker,
''John Chinaman is by no means
given to starving himself II he
hasn't the money 10 buy rich food,
OF course he can only take what
comes cheap, but when he has the
money he attends &c the demands Of
his stomach quite rs cheeufully rs
do other men,
