EDINB URG, May l.-While the Duke
and Duchess of Edinburg were attend
ing the ceremonies of opening the cleo
trio exhibition to-day, the jewels of the
duchess were stolen from their
apartments in the Balmoral hotel.
Although the robbery occurred at
a time when ordinarily the hotel would
have been filled with guests, the thieves
stood little chance of interruption in
their work, owing to the fact that the
exhibition attracted everybody who
had sufficient leisure to attend, leaving
the corridors and most of the rooms de-
serted. The police believe the robbery
was the work of ont or more of Billy
Porter's gang, the work having been
daring i'll conception and skillful in ex-
ecution. The jewels are of enormous
value and comprise some rare gems,
which the duchess was wont to wear
only on state occasions.

MAPLE SUGAR WANTS 1T.

While it is proposed to pay two cents
q pound in bounty for all the sugar
made from cane, sorghum and beets,
the maple sugar people are insisting
that they have as good right to come
in the beneficiary class as the others.
Their sugar is made in a half dozen
states to very considerable extent
Little Vermont produces an average of
about 100000 pounds year, which
is, perhaps, more than any other state
has. 1t is with many of the farmers
leading source of income. They insist
that if the price of sugar is to be re-
duced, as claimed, by lowering the duty,
it will affect their infant industry.
They have been hundred years or
more nourishing it, but it still is III the
infantile stage. The market value of
the maple product is related to that of.
other sugars, and rises and falls as they
to shrivel the returns for their
product, and at the same time contrib
ute to pay bonus to those who make
other varieties of sugar. If they are to
be taxed for the benefit of others, why
should not somebody be mulcted for
their good? They say it is an iEdust try
adapted TO the climate and conditions,
and capable of expansion and develop
ment to an illmitable extent. 1t is not
easy to make them see that their sort of
sugar is not the kind that needs foster
ing and developing at the expense of
the people of the country. The bounty
business is good object lesson to those
who think it is equitable to force people
to contribute from their earnings to en-
able others to carry on any business
they may think promises them profit.
The protective system is but taxing one
man to benefit another. Its true char
acter is seen IN the direct bounty, and

SOLD HIS EMPLOYERS ACRES.
The Secretary to Millionaire Loeb
Betrays His Trust.


Betrays His Trust.
CHICAGO, May 1.-Rollin ii. Ellis,
private secretary to the Vitality
capitalist, A. I'll. Loeb, was arrested this
evening with Lawyers G. n. Durand and
Hollis Chase. The three were charged
by Loeb with defrauding him of eighty
acres of real estate valued at $4,000.
To-day's papers contained a record OF
the transfer of the property from
Ellis to Durand and Chase for $4,000.
Mr.. Loeb read the notice and then
caused the three arrests. He says that
some time ago he placed the property in
the hands of his clerk, Ellis, to hold in
trust, Ellis giving Loeb deed, which
the capitalist for business reasons
desired to be left unrecorded,
Loeb charges that DuranG and
Chase conspired with Ellis to make
way with the property. The $4,000
mentioned. it is stated, was never re-
ceived by Ellis, the intention being to
have the two lawyers dispose of the
$4,000 tract and then share equally the
spoils with the clerk. Ellis enjoyed
the full confidence of Loeb, the
latter says, and only to-day, after
having the sale of Loeb's property re-
corded, spoke to the capitalist gally of
an excellent real estate deal he ellis
had made. Nothing was thought of
the remark by Loeb until he shortly
afterward happened to see the news
paper mention of the sale. Ellis to-
hight is said to have made full
confession, and offered all repara-
ton in bis power, begging
his employer to forgive him.

Keller Won the Case.

The jury in the defamation of charac-

Mary was very angry at her failure to

At least she did so, if her angry words
commenting on their actions and declar-

considered a scoring.

A FABLE.

Once upon time there was an oracle.
And there was likewise candidate.
Add it came to pass that the oracle
spake blasphemously of the candidate,
and used him despitefully. and in
simulated all manner of evil against him.
Whereupon the candidate rushed into
the thirteen-story temple. and, pros
trating himself before the oracle, cried
aloud: "If it be possible let this cup
pass from me. My life is even as a
dogs life, yet dog would like to live,
if only to lick the hand of his master"
But the oracle grew stern and looked
wise. Nor would he even SO much as
extend the hand which the suppliant
wished to lick. And when he spoke his
voice trembled with passion "Son of
the beer cask, the curse Of the
NEwELLAs be upon thee. Knowest
thou not it is the tradition of our lodge
that candidate must have plethoric
purse and be willing to contribute
literally of his shekeis to the temples
treasury"
Upon this suggestion the candidate
arose, and, assuming the air of perse-
cuted citizen. slyly remarked: "Pll see
you later"

"A Buckeye JeweIer Robbed of

CINCINNATI. May IA bold diamond
robbery occurred at noon to-day. Henry
Niche, of the jewelry firm of Niche

through to Mcfarland street, disap-
peared. An accomplish of the pair,who
had been stationed at the entrance to
the store, had grasped the door knob
and attempted to imprison the proprie-

MANON LESCAUT.

To you whose temperate pulses flow
With measured beat, serene and slow,
The even tenor of whose way
Is undisturbed by passions sway,
The tale of hayward love may seem
The record Of fevered dream.
And yet we, too. have that within
To make us what our kind have been.
A love more strong, wish more faint
Makes one monster, one saint;
And even love. by difference nice,
Becomes virtue or vice.
The brier that DER the garden wall
Trials its sweet blossoms till they fall
Across the dusty road, and then
Are trodden under foot of men,
Is sister to the decofous rose
Within the gardens well kept close,
Whose pinioned branches may not roam
Out and beyond their latticed home.
There's many life of sweet content
Whose virtue Is environment.
They erred, they fell: and yet It's true
Thes held the mirror up to you.

ONLY IN EXTREME CASES.

Every day the papers furnish new or
additional evidence that the coming
woman is to have her rights. In the
past the young man has been in the
habit of shooting the girl who declines
to become his matrimonial attachment.
He would waylay her upon the street,
OF go out walking with her, making her
target for his pistol. He would then,
if not utterly lacking in decency, turn
the smoking weapon to his own head.
The improvement. as illustrated in the
case at Syracuse and others elsewhere,
is for the young lady to take pistol
along when she goes out walking with
her lover, and, if he shows signs of
faithlessness or being too promiscuous,
she shoots him. but does not add the
shooting act for herself. There are OBJ
jections to this feminine role-not that
many of the fellows do not need shoot
ing. The ladies are apt to be inexpert,
and in a public place are more likely to
hit innocent parties. In any event, it is
likely to make unpleasantness. Only
in extreme cases. and as illustration of
possibilities, should this be the recourse.
