part members of the Sightseers' Club who,
without entering In any way into opposi-

the initial trip of a new club which was for

Redwood Peak, which was reached after a
pleasant tramp via the road to JOAQUIN

SEVERE SIMPLICITY.
Sarah Bernhardt's Primitive Styles
Stage Apparei.

Sarah Bernhardts Primitive Styles of
Stage Apparel.
Her costumes, as usual. are splendid, but
some alarm is expressed in couturlere estab-
lishments at the total absence of any cut
ting out or fabrication, lest ladies should
take fancy to such primitive styles of APP
parel. Several yards of material swathed
round the figure and fastened with pins
without thes-intervention of needle any
where "Des epinglesl Rien que DIES epin-
"est-ce qu'on s'habille avec deS epingles!'
And a chorus of protesting voices declare
that "cette Sarah " must be mad
On the other hand, husbands and
fathers admire and approve the
economical innovation, with the idea
of suppressing couturiere's bills: But,
even supposng the very improbable addp-
ton of such a simplitied mode OF attire,
would not the couturieres be necessarily be
called in to arrange the pins and folds?
What average woman could manage to coil
yards and yards of clinging material round
her figure with any graceful result? what
delicious sketches of middle-aged, stout
matrons in classical attire Leech would
have drawn had lie lived TO hear OF such
things!

A SECOND SOLOMOT.

A country judge in Hungary
gave decision a few days ago of
which Solomon himself might be
proud. Members of the Nazarene
sect in the town of Gyoma re-
quested His Honor to be allowed to
cruelty one of their number 'who
was Messiah, and had been called
by heaven TO save men," The
judge for moment was dumb
founded. "Friends," he replied,
after recovering his senses, 81 dc

ligious practices. If your Messiah
wishes to be crucifed let him pre-.
pare himself for death. Remem

rise again in three days l shall

needless to add, allowed their chic

THE TARIFF ON LIFE.

Mr.. DAVID A. WELLS has writ
ten for the New York World an ex-
haustive review of the wool tariff
and its consequences, in which he
shows with great succinctness that
the outrageous tariff has oppressed
the manufacturers, without afford
ing the slightest relief to the wool
grower. It is, however, from
hygienic' standpoint that Mr..
WELLS article is especially
interesting. The operations of
the tariff have for many years put
the price Of woollcn underclothing
beyond the reach of the poor, and it
is shown by the census Of 1880 that
Al per cent. of the material that
constituted the sc-called woollen
fabrics OF the country was not wool
The substitution of cotton clothing
for that made of wool has, in the
changeable climate of the United
States, peopled thousands of grave
yards. Upon this subject Mr.. WELLS
says: ''No one in his senses woult
knowingly venture into an atmos
phere charged with conditions ia
) voring grip, pneumonia and th'
varied throat and lung ailment
or diseases, clad in cotton garments
And yet this is what the work
ingmen and poorer classes of tn
country do habitually under a TART
; system that prevents the proper an
1 healthful use of wool for the ord
nary clothing purposes" Twent

measure has for some time COM
mended itself to our approval. 1t
would be blessing to the entire
commercial world if silver and gold
could be rendered Of equal value
everywhere. The people of all ma
tions need universal currency.
This demand of "Agricola's" will
meet no opposition from the ALI
ancemen. They are all, or nearly
all, sound on the silver question"
Next, "Agricola" proposes to
substitute gold or silver, or both,
for bonds as basis for the national
bank circulation. But silver and
GOLD would bear no interest, and
would lie unproductive in the Treas
ury. Perhaps this defect is to be
cured by the privilege of usins bank
notes to the full amount Of deposits.
Next, "Agricola" would abol-
ish the internal-revenue tax or
banks as means Of creating de.
mand for $35O,OOO,000 of silver
and bringing that metal to parity
Of value { (l6 to | with gold.
Finally, "Agricola'' would cal

held by the national banks, making

notes (say $35O,OOO,C00 legal ten

IN EsTRAINT OF MARNIAGE

Attention is called to the recent
decision Of the Supreme Court of
Colorado. A husband had bargained
to give his divorced wife a specified
sum every month after their sepa-
ration as long as she should remain
unmarried. He kept up the pay
ments for some time and then
stopped them, whereupon she sued
him. His defence was that the
agreement was in restraint of mar
riage and could not be enforced.
The Supreme Court OF that State
does not take this view. "This is
not" it says, ga contract in restraint
Of marriage. No obligation is i'm.
posed upon the woman not to marry
She is at liberty at any time tc
marry whom and where she will
There is nothing in the agreement

THE IMMIG RATION PROBLEM.

ii II ~ - |
The Voice has of late given much
attention to the discussion of immi-
grafton problems. 1t sent out a
circular letter to members of Con-
gress asking what notifications
could be made to the present laws,
and to what extent this country
would be justified in excluding for
eigners. Among the replies is one
from Hon. B. F. GRADY, member |
of Congress from the Third District
Of North Carolina, who writes:
Il cannot find in the Articles of
Confederation or in the Constitution
any delegation Of power by the
States to the Congress to restrict
immigration, except what is implied
in the inhibition with regard to
the slave trade; and, even without
the 10Th AmendMent, Congress can
not exercise 5pch a power. 1t be-
longs to the several States. Pro
tective tariffs, unauthorized by the
States in the Constitution, have en-
ticed the dissatisfied classes of the
old world to crowd to our shores in
search Of the high wages alleged 20
result from such legislation; and the
petted corporations who have re-
: ceived, as free gift, some twenty

responsible for the drag-net which

HOW IS THE PRICE OF COT
TON FIXED?

There is much misapprehension
on this subject, the common opinion
being that capitalists combine and
arbitrarily fix the price Of the
worlds cotton. AS matter of fact,
the price is fixed at which each new
crop of cotton is to be started on the
general market by the closest and
most laborious investigation as to
the number Of bales produced in
the whole world, and as to the num-
Der of bales that will be needed for
consumption.
Some of the most intelligent bus
iness men in Europe as we'll as in
the United States, are all the time,
from one years end to another,
gathering information concerning
the acreage of cotton planted in the
United States, Egypt and India,
and the progress the crop makes
from week to week and from month
to month. From this information
these men estimate the number of

At the same time they are ascer-

that were consumed during the

how many bales will probably be
