Russell Harrison Angry.

NEW YORK, Sept 1.-The Sun says Collector
Fassett, backed by Secretary Foster, yesterday
refused to let Russell Harrison have the United
States revenue cutter Grant for the purpose Of
going down the bay to meet and take off Mrs.
Russell Harrison and Mrs. Mckee when they
arrived on the Majestic. Mr.. Harrison 10 said
to have been very angry at the refusal.
Tlee reason given for the refusal is that it is
not customary to transfer women from steam
ers to small craft. Such transfers are difficult
and dangerous even for men. In only two in
stances has the rule been broken-in the case
Of Nellie Grant Sartoris when her father was
diving and Of Miss Folsom when she was on her
way home to be married to President Cleve-
land
COLLECTOR fAssErr MAKES HIS POINT.
NEW York, Sept I.-Gollector Fassett
placed the revenue cutter, Grant, at
the disposal of Mrs. President Harrison
to go down the bay and meet her daughter and
daughter-in-law on the Majestic. The ladies
will not be transferred from the Majestic to the
cutter, but the latter will merely accompany
the steamer to her dock.

THE REED BIRD SEASON.
cunners Pop at the Dainty Little Thines
Early This Morning.

The reed bird season opened this morning
Long before daylight a motley crowd had as
ssmbled on the platform at the south end Of
the Long bridge. Every one was armed with
gun Of more or less improved pattern. The
wealthy sportman with his wsding boots and
hammerless breech-loader was there sitting
beside HE colored brother, who, armed with an
antique musket and cur dog, Was snxiously
awaiting the fret streaks Of dsy.
Az the hrst gray strcsks Of dawn appeared In
the east the crowd broke up. Some went TO
the marsh on the east OF the bridge. while
others iourneyed to Grareley creek and worked
big marsh.
Very little wAding was done in the early
morning. as the tide was high. but later in the
day the marshes were crowded and a regular
fusilade was kept mp until Old Sol made IL SO
unpleasant that they had 20 beat a retreat.
Not many reed birds were killed across the
Long bridge today and ortolan were scarce
There were plenty OF black birds however,
and they furnished sport enough. Some
hunters who came ia early reported that birds
were very scsry and it was difficult
to get within gunshot OF them.
Reed blres were sold at 81 per dozen this
morning, which denotes their scarcity. Black
bird. sold for 40 cents per dozen aad sparrows
could be had at rs cents per dozen. Sparrows
Just now aIe IN prime condition. especially
those found in the marshes. and when picked
can readily lie pslmed Of to the uninitiaIed as
reed birds.
Taken all in all the season did not open very
favorabiy. great many hunters complained
TO STAR reporter who visited the hunting
grounds this morning that the reason birds
were so scarce was due TO the fact that he con-
stables were very lax in their duties and al
lowed shooting before the season opened. so
that when September came the birds were
not only scRrCP lut very MILD
No large bags were reported from over the
river today and up to the time TIE STAR went
TO press no accident had been reported.

along the railroad track by gunners hidden ia

HylOidealisn.

A thing is anything. So John Stuart
Mill explained. A thing as it is, and a thing
as it appears to be, are two different things.
Tom and Harry may share in the posses
sion of a cat; but the cat. as she appears to
Tom, is not the same as appears to Harry.
Yet, all the sIme she is the same. Hylo-
idealism has COMPOUNDED the fact. Hylo-
idealism will be new word to some. 1t
has been shaped to cover the operation of
the mind in the apprehension of fact The
argument of The hyloidealist has the fulfill
ty of an endless whip. Alice in Wonder
land" is made to say,"I have seen cat
without grin. but never saw grin with
out a cat before" The intellectual rela-
tions of the n aterialist and the hyloidealist
would seem to I've much as those Of the
grinless cat and the unincorporate grin.

THANKSGIVING DAY.

It's Origin, Development and Final Adop-
tion Throughout the Country.
The first Thanksgiving day held in
America is believed to have occurred in
February, 1851, at which date vessel laden
with supplies arrived to succor the starry
ing colony at Charlestown. During the
following years frequent days of thanks
were appoin led in the New England colo
MES. At first these appointments were at
different seasons of the year-sometimes
twice in one year-and for special reasons.
Thanksgiving day was a national institu-
ton during the Revolution and was an
nually recommended by congress, but after
a general Thanksgiving for peace in 1884
there was no national appointment till
1889, when President Washington recon-
mended a thanksgiving for the adoption of
the constitution. In 1875 Washington APP
pointed another national Thanksgiving on
account of the suppression of the insurrec-
ton of that year. In 1915 day of thanks
giving for the restoration of peace was rec
commended by President Madison, but
during the early part of the century
Thanksgiving remained an institution pc
culiar to New England, but was not always
held either on the same day or in the same
month. The Protestant Episcopal prayer
book adopted in 1889 recommended for
day of anksgiving the first Thursday in
November, and this day was observed by
the church generally in states where there
was no official thanksgiving appointed.
The first official appointment of a
Thanksgiving day in the state of New
York was made in 1917, but the governors
of western and southern states did not
generally TO low the custom until after
1850. Proclalnations recommending Special
thanksgiving for victory were issued by
President Lincoln in 1862 and 1863, and in
1868 and 1864 he appointed the annual
Thanksgiving day by national proclama-
ton. Since that time annual thanksgiv-
ing proclamations have been issued by the
presidents, the governors of the several
states and The mayors of the principal
cities. The last Thursday of November is
celebrated as Thanksgiving day through
out the country.

Thus speaketh Henry George: There
runs through protectionIst professions of
concern for labor tone of condescend-
ing patronage more insulting to men who
feel the dignity of labor than frankly ex.
pressed contempt could bean assump-
zion that psuperism is the natural condi-
lion of labor. 10 which it must every
where fall unless benevolently protected
1t is never intimsted that the land owner
or the capitalist needs protection. They,
it is always assumed. can take care of
themselves. 1t is only the poor working
man who must be protected"

The Sense of Smell.

Experts in the manufacture of perfumery
say that the sense of smell can be devel-
oped just as acutely as the senses of sight,
hearing, taste and touch. This would
seem paradoxical, for it is well known
fact that after smelling five or six differ
ent perfumes the uneducated nose so loses
its power that ability to distinguish odors
is entirely lost. This TO degree is true of
the educated nose, but its power lasts
longer. An expert is able by putting a
drop or two of perfume on a bit of cotton
to tell what it is and just what scents en-
ter into its composition.-New York Even
ing Sun.
