A PoIynesian Legend.

Tura, coming from over seas, found
himself in a land named Otea, and
leaving his canoe, iourneyed inland.
Travelling through the dense forest,
he saw fairies sitting in the flowers of
the climbing plants and swinging on
the 1lianas which trailed from the
high boughs across the vistas of the
wood. These fairies were curiously-
shaped beings, having small heads and
large bodies, while their hands and
feet were attached to limbs so short
that they seemed as if extruding from
their bodies. Tura had brought with
him the sticks wherewith fire is pro-
duced by friction, and he proceeded to
klndle a IRE and to cook some food
much to the astonishment of the
fairies, who had always consumed their
food IN its natural state. Tura fell in
love with one of the fairy women and
married her. His wife refrigerated
his affection and they lived happily
together; but one day when the elfn
spouse was cOmbing out her husbands
hair, she suddenly cried out. @Oh.
Tura, what Is this white hair among
the black ones ?" He told her that II
was a sign of age and approaching
decay, the forerunner of death. Then
his wife wept bitterly and refused to
be comforted. 1t IS a touching story,
the sudden surprise and gfief of this
child of tine immortals on her discovery
of that which to US poor sons OF clay is
so common and obtrusive a fact The
old legend has given rise to q proven
bal saying, THE weeds of Tura, as a
synonymous expression for gray hair

A New York Architects Daring scheme

A New York Architects Daring Scheme.
There seems to be no limit TO the
boldness of architectural design which
characterizes the era Of lofty construe-
ton upon which the country has en-.
tered within the last few years. New
York City, from the necessities Of her
situation and the limited area of her
business section, has been the leader IN
the evolution of lofty buildings, though
other commercial centers are following
closely the example set by that place.
A striking illustration Of what there
is every reason to believe may yet be
accomplished il this direction was
given at the recent exhibition of the
Architectural League in New York
City. Bruce Price. a well-known
architect, presented for inspection on
that occasion the plans for a structure
442 feet In height, divided into 80
stories and covering a lot only IS feet
square. With the present progress made
IN combining steel and masonry there
no difficulty whatever IN the way of
constructing such a building as the
one proposed. The foundation must
cover the entire space occupied, and In
New York the bed rock frequently
comes near enough to the surface to
case, piling must be used, and upon
this a thick bed of cement concrete
laid. Above this bed iron crib work
would be laid, and u on this the super
structure would be raised. The gem
eral idea may be briefly stated to. be
system of steel columns and girders
supporting the entire floor load Of the
building, and also the weight of the
outside walls above the twentieth floor.
The walls themselves viii be of gran
tie. brick, marble, and terra Gotta and
will in no case be called upon to bear
any other strain than their own weight.
By this scheme the masonry viii be
far more massive, aud the space oceu-
pied viii not interfere with the availa-
bic ioor room even in the lower stories.
The elevator system will be grouped
in the center of the building around

WHAT Maine men don't know about
Holsters is not worth telling. Here is
their latest information on the subject
as given by the Lewiston Journal /:
Who Of our readers ever heard of a
lobster getting mad and shooting off
one of his claws? If we may rely
upon the veracity of the old lobster
man, this popular crustaeean, like the
members of the human family, Is
capable of biting his own nose off to
spite his face He says that when a
lobster gets excited in any way he
sometimes shoots off one of his big
claws. 1t comes out clean as a whistle
and leaves hole clean cut and with
no jagged edges. In the course of a
few days a new claw will grow, and his
lobstership can keep up that interesting
operation as long as he chooses. The
lobster is the only creature that scient-
lists have been able to discover having
the power to do such a thing. But, &C
cording to the old fisherman, the fun
NEST part of it is if the lobster loses
his claw by any other force than his
own it Will not grow again. If You
pull the claw off the lobster viii go
round the rest of his life minus one
claw"

The oaIveaton spaeoh.

The most important feature of the presi-
dents speech at Galveston related to the
policy of reciprocity. He stated that the
reciprocity provision of the Mckinley law
mot only met with my Official approval
when I signed the bill but with my Jealous
promotion before the bill was reported"
Regarding what has been done and is being
done towards reciprocity, the president
added:
ALREADY one treaty with the youngest of
the South American republics, the great re-
public of Brazil. has been negotiated and
proclaimed. / think, without disclosing any
executive secrets, may tell You that the ar
rangement with Brazil is not likely to abide
in lonesonenes much longer prolonged
cheerlngl, that others are to follow and that
as result of these trade arrangements the
products of the United States, our meats,
our breadstuffs, and certain lines of our
manu- featured goods are to find free or
favored access to the ports of many of the
South and Central American states All the
states will share IN these benefits. We have
had some analysis made of the manifests of
some of our steamers now sailing to South
American ports, and IN a single steamer it
was found that twenty-five of our states con-
tributed to the cargo.

Depew on Railroad Rates,

Kansas CITY, No., April 27.-While the
Vanderbilt party was here Mr.. Depew, pres
ident of the New York Genital, said in an
interview:
1.-THE success of the Western roads de-
pends on the stability of the associations and
the maintenance of rates. Should the asso-
cations be broken up and war result. there
would be vast consequent loss of revenue.
But the roads would not be the only losers;
the merchants want stable rates as well as
the roaos. In the East this view is gener-
ally taken by the shippers, but in the West
they have not yet learned the lesson, and
there are many who think that railroad wars
and secret rates are to the advantage Of the
-hipper. Wars mean death to the small
merchant, for the man who has money al
ways gets the advantage of the secret rates.
The cost of transportation should be as
stable and well Enown as the price of post
age stamp. 1t can then be taken into ac-
count IN all commercial transactions, and
the men who understand the market can do
the business. Brains will then count, and
the millionaire can be done up by his push
ing competitor who has no money"

CINcINNATI, o., April 24.-At the closing
session of the republican league convention
the committee on resolutions, through John
L Webster, of Nebraska, presented a report.
The resolutions honored the memory of
General Sherman, Admiral Porter and Sec
rotary Window; Endorsed the action of
Speaker Reed IN compelling the members of
the house of representatives to transact pub
lie business; favor protection and reciprOc-
ity; remember the claims of soldiers and de-
clare the aim of the league to be the dissem-
ination of the principles and doctrines of the
republican party as fashioned by the teach
lngs of its greatest leaders.
Tho following clauses are in full; We In
dorse tbs statesnanhke, generous and patrl-
otto course OF the administration OF Presl-
dent Harrison. Its conduct of both domestic
and foreign affairs has been such as to COM
mand the thorough respect and hearty ad-
miratiOn OF every true citizen Its attitude
IN dealing with alien residents and giving to
them the protection accorded to American
citizens, and no more, i just, and should
commend itself to the civilized world. We
oppose any attempt to debase the currency
and coin of the country but insist upon
such legitim ate increase of our circulating
medium and such maintenance OF the double
standard as Will fairly satisfy the increasing
necessities of trade and commerce. Loyal
and intelligent republicans will not seek to
destroy vested interests nor to cripple any
legitimate enterprise. but they demand that
the best thought OF the republican party
shall be concentrated on the formulation of
such legislation as will protect the people
from any exactlons of the usurer, from OPP
presslons of monOpolies, or from extortion-
ate demands of public carriers Recent
events have made more apparent than ever
before the necessity for exercising the sOver-
eign right inherent in our nation as IN all
others, to use discrimination IN the admls-
sion of foreigners as residents OF this cOun-
try. We, therefore, recommend such change
in our laws as will efiectually prohibit the
immigration of paupers and criminals. We

Dreme and sovereign right of every lawful
citizen, rich or poor, native or foreign born.

such right should result in decrease of repre-

force in the advocacy and promotion of
republican principles, and commend to every
believer IN repubhcanisin the duty OF lend

OF the benefits of this potent agency.
