THERE was time when farming was

THERE was time when farming was
prosperous and farmers were contented.
This was before class legislation and
high tariff prevailed. 1t was a time
also when the Democratic party had
control of public affairs. Whatever
causes have contributed to the discon-
tentment of the farmers is not a. trib-
utable to Democratic management.
Why then should Democrats leave
their party or join other party organi-
cations? The conditions now complain
ed of are only what has time and time
again been pointed out by Democrats
as the legislation and high tariff. No,
gentlemen, the Democratic party is not
responsible for the depression of the
farmers or the building up of great
monied interests. They are not re-
sponsible for the legislation that has
made it possible for the earnings of the
masses to pass to the Golfers of the class
es. There is good reason why dissatis-
faction should exist against the policy
of the party that has promoted tariff
and unjust taxation, but that party is
not the Democratic party. It Is high
time that the people should awaken to
proper sense of what is hurting them.
But the evil cannot be laid at the door
of the Democratic party, party that
has, as a party organization, proteste d
against the ruin0us tariff tax policy

THE CHILEAN REVOLUTION
No Prospects of an End to the strug-

No Prospects of an End to the Strug-
gle Very Soon.
New YORK, May 1S.-Letters and
papers received in this city by the last
mail from South America contain some
interesting facts concerning the troub-
les in Chill. There seems now to be no
possibility of an immediate ending of
the war. Many leading families are
leaving Santiago for Buenos Ayers to
avoid persecution at the hands of the
dictator. Balmaceda's army is said to
consist at present of 10000 men. Bal
maceda continues to promote officers in
the army and navy, and cancel the
commissions of all opposed to him, but
Ell Porvenir of Callao, in its issue of APP
ril 20, says that all Balmaceda can do In
this way will not materially affect the
result of the struggle.
The principal business portion of
Iquique has been destroyed, but the
rest of the town escaped serious dam
age. Provisions are being received and
the danger of famine is disappearing.
The railway has been repaired and is
in running order.
The railway played very important
part in the war on the Pampas, being
used by both armies. Field and gatling
guns were mounted on fiat cars and
fighting was carried on from the cars
whenever possible. One of the tricks
adopted by the revolutionists was to
make up train of cars, and after put
ting on full steam jump off and let the
train run away and crash into the gov
ernment train on the track ahead, with
which they had been fighting. This
scheme was adopted after running out
of ammunition.
tits stated in Valparaiso that Balma-
ceda has bought steamer called the
North America in the Argentine Re-
public and that the ships of the revolu-
tionary squadron are looking for her
Chilian soldiers are being driven into
foreign territory. They are to be found
in the Argentine Republic, Peru and
Bolivia.
In an account of the fight between
the warships in Caldera bay, which re-
suited in the blowing up of the revolu'
tionists' vessel, the Blanco Encalada, a
Peruvian paper states that during the
| fight the Blanco was at anchor. The
government man-of-war Almirante An
del launched IL torpedoes, not Z, as hal
been stated, against the Blanuo. None

ever in an ugly mood he relieved himself
by beating his young wife. One Sunday
recently Caputo accompanied his wife and
baby on visit to Giuseppe Chirichello, his
father-in-law, in Hoboken, whose remain
ing family consisted of his wife Rosa and
three sons.
Caputo was morose and ugly, as usual,
but played cards with the family and de-
clared his intention of stopping all night.
Mrs. Caputo and the baby were given room
with her mother and one of her brothers.
Caputo slept on a bed of rags in the
kitchen. Caputo's couch was hard, and at
midnight he arose and demanded admit
lance to the small bed on which his wife
and baby and mother-in-law were sleeping.
His wife refused, and her mother told CD

pocket and plunged it repeatedly into his
wife's shoulders.
Mrs. Chirichello tried to force her son-in
law back. Caputo turned and killed her.
The son, awakened by the connection,
started up In fright. Caputo pulled a
pistol and shot him in the breast. Then
the assassin rushed into the kitchen, where
be was met by his father-in-law, who felled
him with a chair. In a second Caputo

How the Oyster Feeds.

How the oyster feeds may seem a prob
lem. Fixed to an anchorage, how does IL
get its foods As seen in a raw box, Z"
which is always NOW open," the oyster is
shut as close as clam; but in its native
habitat its shells are always little apart.
and microscopic waving hairs set up cur
rents which carry the food plants to its
mouth, where they are ingulfed and after
ward digested. The oyster feeds every
hour, every minute Of the day, and turns
material otherwise unavailable into one OF
the best OF human foods. Scientific work
by the state and national surveys have prov
ed that nearly three-quarters of the bay
are covered by such mud, and are fitted
to noarish oysters, though only q small
part is oyster bed. Why The embryo
sinks in the mud, and is smothered. To
thrive. it needs merely some stones or
other solid objects to serve as a resting
place-Dr H Newell Martin.

But their happiness was not to last long.
Both were poor, and their poverty began

die together. They laid their plans delib-

timent that finds occasional Judgment in
the breasts of persons for whom existence
has no more charms.
They took a room at the Grand Union
hotel, New York. They slept there one
night, and spent the next day in CHASTITY
preparation for death. After a Late break
fast they went out and drank together.
On returning in the afternoon they called
for beer, and were heard laughing and jok-
ing when it was served. Early in the even
ing the odor of escaping gas was the onca-
sion for their room being broken open,
when they were found dead on the bed
clasped in each others arms.
Both were arrayed in new night clothes

With a morbid desire for sensational

coroner set forth:

was on his feet again, knife in one hand
and pistol in the other. Meantime the
wounded boy had rallied. lie armed him
self with pistol, and, going into the
kitchen, fired several shots. Caputo was
wounded, but not in vital part. He
closed with Conoquito, his brother-in-law.
The boy had drawn his knife, and, al
though badly hurt, fought with desperate
strength By fortunate stroke Como
quito managed to plunge his weapon be-
tween Caputo's fourth and fifth ribs, and
the battle was over. Caputo died after
being removed to the hospital. His wife,
father and brother-in-law will recover.
Another of the remarkable series Of
crimes was the murder of Emily Taylor by
Henry Tanning, in New York. Two years
ago Tanning, married man with two
children, became infatuated with Mrs.
Taylor, a married woman also with two
children. The woman's unfaithfulness
drove her husband to suicide. This trag-
edy did not check the guilty couple. For
while they lived together. Tanning
grew jealous and exacting; Mrs. Taylor
left him, but despite threats and cruelty
continued to meet her lover at intervals.
Their last rendezvous was at Devils
Hole" a lonely district near Ninety-sixth
street and Park avenue. No one witnessed
