ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. l9.-Fireman Reedy
of engine company No. 10 is in disgrace.
He was discharged from the force this af-
ternoon on serious charge, that of send
ing in false alarms. Ever since the spring
city election war has been waged between
the mayor and council combine who de-
cline to approve his nominations for fire
chief and water commissioner, claiming that
the two old officers were thoroughly
competent and they ought to stay in Office.
it is now said that the mayors friends are
throwing every obstacle in the way of the
chief of the fire department, with a view to
making him resign. 1t is alleged that
Reedy is one of the mayors friends, and
that while the big Famous" fire was
burning tiercely on Tuesday Reedy sent in
three false alarms from as many different
localities. His case is being investigated.

see,lIess Fruits.

Seedlessa apples were known to the an
clients, and since then many mentions
have been made of the same fact.
Within the last century not only seed
less fruits, but those preceded by no
blossoms have been occasionally met
with. Thus the mo blow variety wiss

latter fruit will sometimes produce
berries, but without seeds. The banana
is one of the best illustrations of seed
less fruit. There are many varieties of
this tropical fruit, and it is probably
true that the wild plants were seed
bearing The so-called s.dried ctirrants"
are seedless grapes from Corinth. In
California this grape produces seeds,
and attempts to raise the standard

the Sultana grape of California is seed

The Human Form.

The proportions of the human figure
are six times the length .of the right
foot. Whether the form is slender or
plump, the rule holds good on an aver
age; any deviation from the rule is de-
parture from the beauty Of proportion.
1t is claimed that the Greeks made all
Of their statues according to this rule.
The face from the highest point of the
forehead, where the hair begins, to the
end of the chin, is one-tenth OF the
whole stature; the hand from the wrist
to the end Of the middle finger is also
one-tenth of the total height. From the
crown to the nape Of the neck is one
twelfth the stature. If the face from
the roots of the hair to the chin be di-
vided into three equal parts, the first
division determines the place where the
eyebrows should meet, the second the
opening of the nostrils. A man Of good
proportions is as tall as the distance be-
tween the tips of his fingers when both
arms are extended to full length. st

The Disastrous Results of the Present
Administration.
The United States Senate is now po-
htically divided into fifty-one Repub-
licans and thirty-seven Democrats, a
Republican majority OF fourteen, a
very comfortable majority according to
the figures. But some important
changes are at hand. The Democrats
will elect, IN place OF the Republican
incumbents, Senators from New York,
Wisconsin and Illinois, with the strong
probability OF one from New Hamp-
shire. Kansas and South Dakota are
in doubt, with the prospect OF a
Farmers Alliance man from the former
State. Some OF the Legislatures elect
ed in the Presidential year will have
the duty OF electing twenty-fonr United
States Senators. OF these, Delaware,
Florida, Indiana, Maryland, Mississippi.
Missouri, New Jersey, Tennessee, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia may be safely
counted upon for the Democrats, and
the Republicans will probably have

THE BANE OF BUSINESS.
Effects Of Speculative Congressional Acts
on Commerce.

Effects OF Speculative Congressional Acts
on Commerce.
In anticipation of the passage of the
Mckinley bill, manufactures abroad
were immensely stimulated, as were
imports to this country for the last six
months of>grace. The result was that
enormous quantities of imported goods
are held in bond in New York, and fair
ly oxershadow the manufacturing inter-
ests of this country, being in the nature
of overproduction and resting as a men,
ace to the trade. The effect is disas-
trous to labor, while not relieving in
any manner the consumer. Failures in
manufactures are resulting and must
result therefrom, and for some time the
country must stagger under the abnor-
NAL condition of affairs precipitated by
tariff tinkering. AS to the stupendous
mountain of goods in store, the chances
are that ultimately much will have to
be sold at sacrifice, and while this
will keep home fabrics out of the mar
ket it will also lend a speculative feel
ing to the market which can never be
looked on as healthful.
The lesson taught is that legislated
business is the nnsoundest kind of COM
merce. 1t is like dosing man with
medicines instead of letting him eat his
daily bread. Speculative Congressional
acts have been the bane of business for
many years, and no wonder can exist
that panics threaten and that failures
are getting to be standard annual
crop. Nothing but evil can possibly
follow the acts of Congress which have
been promulgated under pressure Of I'll e
party which is backed and nourished by,
the spectators of New York and the
monopolists of the whole country
