CIIEsgIR, Feb "a. Reuben Brioler-
dyke, a native of Bradford. England,
who has lived here for the past few
soifespoha a duri i liz e sSseaos
from the old home with d son-in-iiw
whom he Loft there. This latter was
| sometimeago offered a position in u
New England mill at the s,tiary OF s25
a week, but he refused 1t, as business
was brisk at home and the outlook
good.
The father-in-law, however, received
a letter II few days ago from him In
which he bitterly regrets not coming
to this country and draw deplorable
picture OF the state of trade In Brad
ford, one OF Englands greatest
centers OF industries, and lays Tho
entire blame of the conditions on
things on the Mckinley bill. These
are his exact words taken from the
correspondence
''The Mckinley bill has made sad
mess OF business In Bradford. Our
Ted has not had full weeks work
since the passage OF that bill, which Il
we'll cursed here. Everything is going
wrong; and to give you an iden how
he Is looked upon by our people,
mothers scare their little children by
telling them the boyle man, Mckinley
will come after them, A mdicrous
thing happened to u friend of mime,
whose wife had a girl baby. When tho
poor woman got better she said it
would have been boy for only
Mckinley. There are nothing
doing at all, no weaving or
dyeing, and all the stun
warehuusemen are thrown ont of
employment through MeKinley.r
The letter concluded with the
assurance there was nothing morH to
stay at home for, and that tho writer
was seriously thinking OF coming here
as soon as possible.

The Latest Terror OF Science.
rom Kate Fields Washington.

Diphtheria from oysters Is latest
danger with which science sooths the
imagination Of mankind. The theory
is that oysters fattened in unwhole-
some waters become contaminated
with disease germs which they trans
init TO human consumers. The idea was
first suggested by the fact that a num-
Der of London business men, living
in different but entirely healthful parts
of tho town, were stricken with diph-
iberia ~ W9s which physieians COULD
not account for. It was fianally dis
covered that they all lunched at the
same restaurant and always upon
oysters, which strongly limited at the
origin OF the disease.
