Rnit Club Money.

The Pittsburg Leader Of Thursday, in
speaking of the manager Of the Club
Suit Company, says: Hatton, late man
age OF the American Suit Club Company,
convicted of maintaining lottery and
sentenced two months to the workhouse,
will be taken up tomorrow to begin his
term. In the meantime the question
which concerns few thousand victims
more than anything else is: Chow
about the money we have paid into the
scheme?"
Superintendent Gamble Weir said to-
day that he had been notified by II. T..
Hatton, the managers brother, that he
and w. B. Urling will call upon the
superintendent to confer with him with
view to making arrangements to re-
turn money due the members. Mr..
Weir believes this money should be re-
turned, but there is no way to compel 1t
except by suit. Any such action will,
of course, be unnecessary If return is
made voluntarily.

JULIA MARLowE's ENGAGEMENT.

JULIA MARLowE'S ENGAGEMENT.
Few actresses on the American stage
have had q more remarkable and bril-
liant career than has Julia Marlowe.
Three years ago she was barely known;
to-day her position as great dramatic
star may we'll be considered perma-
nent fixture. Her reputation as young
actress of rare merit has penetrated
every portion of the United States, to
say nothing of the fact that she is also
we'll known to the theatre-going public
OF England, though she has never
played in that country. Her splendid
acting, as has been said OF her, is as
natural as Heavens blue"
NATURAL GAS MONDAY.
"Natural Gas" is once more announc-

and more attractive. As usual, they
have again this year changed it some
what, and filed IL to the very brim with
the most amusing songs, graceful dances
and wholesome fun making. Manager
Samuel P. Cox has also surrounded his
brilliant stars with q company of par
ticularly bright and able people, and as
a consequence, Natural Gas" is this

ANOTHER BLAINE ANCHOR TO WIND
WARD.

Mr.. BLAINE says the Democratic
newspapers are misquotiDg him when
they print the following:

entire Dill mckinley tarih) that will open
a market for another bushel of wheat or
another barrel Of pork. james q. Blaine TO
Senator FTBe, July II, 1890.
Mr.. BLAINE says this is garbled and
that what he did say was this (the
italics are ours);
81 do not doubt that in many respects
the tariff bill pending in the Senate is a
Just measure, and that most OF its provl-
siOns are in accordance with the wise
policy of protection, but there Is not q sec
ton or a line ia the entire bill that lCiU open
a market for another bUShel Of tcheGt or an
other pound Of pork.
Democratic editors should now stop
'garbling" Mr.. BLAINE and print what
he did ssy, and take care to quote it
another pound Of pork" not "6arrel Of
pork, (which MCKINLEY'S bill would
not provide market for. Let US get
down Mr.. BLAINE's exact words; let Us
give him fair show, by all means.

Mr.. BLAINE says he really liked the
Mckinley bill after the free list had
been added to extensively, and his
reciprocity clause adopted, which, II
its theory were carried out, would give
US entire and absolute free trade!

THE M'KINLEY TARIFF IN COURT.

Among the important cases postponed
till the November term Of the Supreme
Court at Washington are those involv-
ing the question of the constitutionality
Of the Mckinley tariff act; and In two Of
these-brought by SToRNBAcH & Co.,
of New York, and MARSHALL FIELD &
Co., of Chicago-the briefs which have
been fled indicate the line of the con-
tentiOn to be made by the importers.
The first point. and that on which
the arguments in both briefs are chiefly
based, is that the law is void because it
now stands in form in which it was
not passed by the two Houses of Con-
gresS. The tobacco rebate section was
in dispute between the Senate and
House. The Senate struck out this
section, but it was restored in confer
ence committee and was contained in
the bill as finally passed. When sent
to the President and approved by him,
this section had dropped out again,
probably by the carelesness OF an
engroSSing clerk. Whatever may have
been the cause of the OMISSION
the bill signed by the President was not
the bill passed by Congress, an impor-
tant section being lacking. In support
of this contention numerous decisions
of State courts are cited showing that
the omission Of an important clause
from an act passed by legislature in
validates the whole act.
Whatever may be the determination
Of the Supreme Court in this matter,
the error and the doubt which 1t casts
upon the validity of the tariff act must
stand as monument OF the folly OF
such hasty and incoDsidered legislation
legistion as that which was had under
the despotism of Speaker REED in the
Flfty-frst Congress.
A further contention of the importers
is that the sugar bounty clause is I'M
constitutional, and Vitiates the entire
act. The late Justice MILLER is the
author Of decision in the Supreme
Court which is cited in both briefs, and
which is indeed enlightening. "To lay
with one hand" said the Judge, ''the
power Of the Government upon the prop
erty of the citizen, and with the other to
bestow it upon favored individuals to aid
private enterprises and build up private
fortunes, is none the less robbery be-
cause it is done under the forms Of law
and is called taxation. This is not leg
slation. 1t is a decree under legisla-
tive forms; nor is it taxation"
The third ground of protest is that an
act which confers upon the President
the discretionary power granted him by
the well-known reciprocity clause is
and the plaintiffs are
IF the opinion that the proposition is so
obvious that argument on the point is
The questions raised by these cases
ire of far reaching Importance. The
late set for their consideration is the
econd Monday in November, and the
whole country will be interested in
them.

living in the Rue Goudon, Paris, was
disagrceably surprised on returning
from the thcater with his family to find
that his house had been ransaclSed, al
most all the furniture destroyed, and a
sum of six Thousand francs in gold and
notes stolen. The next morning he put
nj. Siadoux, commissary of police, in
possession of these facts, who thercup-
on proceeded to the spot and opened an
inquiry. In the course of his search he
found brolsen egg, from which the
white only appeared to have been

to the notice of NJ. Douot, who then re-
mcmbercd that carter named Delbars,
whom he had dismissed for dirty habits,
was accustomed 10 eat eggs in this way.
They arrested him along with his

expenses of the royal kitchen in those
days were almost fabulous and the
courticrs seem to hcve We'd with the
king in the c:stravagancc of their bou-
quets, says writer in Blackwoods
Magazine.
Some of the most famous sauces, such

himself in despair at thc nonarrival of

ing-a contretcrlps which modern fe-
male cook would probably be more
likely to accentuate by first going into
Mysteries and then spelling the rest of

Louis XIV Inherited his grandfathers

kitchen apparatus are all historical.

In the next reign car1e the revolution,
and there seemed some danger of the
science OF cookery being swept away
with the mobiles and chefs of the old
regime; but it survived the storm, and
gained fresh life and vitality under the
republic and the empire. Napoleon

his appetite prompted him: but his
chancellor, CaIabacercs, kept splendid
