country with foreign competing products to
displace those which these very manufactures
propose to make and which the people are tax

THE INCREASED DUTIES.
Referring 10 the complaints about increased
duties under the new law Maj. Mckinley said
that 33J]S per cent Of them are for the better
protection Of the American farmer; 2S are upon
wine and spirits, which will hardly burden the
farmers Five are upon tobacco and agri
cultural products. No like recognition OF
the agricultural industry can be found
in any previous tariff legislation. While
securing to the farmer the home market
by increased protection the reciprocity clause
| is intended TO extend his foreign market and
upon terms more favorable than those accorded
to competing agricultural countries 1t is q
significant fact that the articles which the farmer
most frequently buys bear q less tariff than un
der the Law of 1888 and the products which ht
sells bear higher duty than ever before.
SOME LOCAL ISSUES.
Turning 20 state issues Maj. Mckinley charged
the democratic administration and Legislature
with depriving the legally elected republican
lieutenant governor of his seat without lega
contest, with making an unjust and partisan
congressional gerrymander and with unpar
alleied extravaganza in state expenditures

ATTACHED BY GIRLS
A Flock of Them Kiss and Hug Ba.bfn,
Yale Stucent

The young girls of New Haven who
are employed In the corset shops, dis.
patch from that city says, are noted for
two things, their beauty and their self
assurance. Some of the girls are unusual
~ piquant In their manner, and all As
rule, gifted with suticiency of talk
which they are not slow to use whenever
they get good chance.
One of the principle shops in the city is
located on Court street The girls are re-
leased from their employment about 6
o'clock in the afternoon The students in
this city are genial set of young men as a
rule, and arc divided in two classes
athletes and non-athletes. The athletes
who are in training for the annual boat
race at New London, take a practice spin
IN tue harbOr every afternoon, after which
they take a run from the clubhouse on
Eat Chapel street to the quarters on Elm
street
Their usual course is up Chapel street to
the Wooster square, through which they
run to Court street. This is a short way.
and takes them off the principal streets.
They are obliged to pass the corset shop in
their run up street, and the girls in the
shop have learned to expect them, so that
when the students appear they are greeted
with a chorus of remarks not always COM
plimentary. The students, as a rule. have
always timed themselves so as to pass the
shop a few moments before the girls are
released and thus avoid the rush
One night recently the students were
tritle late coming up the street, and were
about block away when the girls we're
released. Through the streets the students
came on a run, and some Of the girls made
room for them to pass. One of the stud
ents was a little backward from the rest
of the group, and as he was adorned with
goodly crop of hair of the lint that the
poets rave about, the girls immediately
started a volly of remarks.
He became incensed, and made a re-
mark not very complimentary to the girls.
This was what they wanted, and before
the astonished student knew what they
were about, over thirty of them had form
ed group around him and were each cal
ling the choicest explosives that they
could command In vain he trieG to
break through the ranks, but the girls
would not have it. He called on his com
panions for help, but they were too far
ahead to hear hin with the noise made by
the girls, and continued ON their way.
One of the girls suggested that they kiss
him; and before he new what was up he
was being held tightly III the arms of a
stalwact Amazon, and as many as could
conveniently at once step up and kiss
In vain he struggled and fought, and, as
last resort, he screened for help His
companions heard him and turned to his
rescue, and after considerably ditiicutey
they succeeded in effecting his escape.
