SENSIBLE WOMEN.
Not Fooled by Yarns About Mckinley

Not Fooled by Yarns About McKinIey's
Bill and High Prices.
In recent number of the Chicago Inter
Ocean Mrs. Elizabeth Hunt of Bloomington.
who speaks for herself and to the point,
gives her impressions of the Mckinley bill
in the following terse language:
| am Democrats wife, but am sick of
seeing such lies as this in newspapers whose
editors claim not to be fools. / cut this par
agraph out of the Chicago Herald to-day:
When woman pays so cents more a yard for
stuff TO make a dress OF than she would have to
pay If the Mckinley bill had not become law
she would keep 1t to herself. So doing she will
confer a great favor on President Harrison, WHO
thinks that he may get another term In the Wits
House II people will quit making "maleYolent'
remarks about The tariff.-N. Y. Times.
Now, don't this fool Democrat who edits
the Herald know, or can't his wife tell him
that everything woman wears costs less
than it did before the Mckinley bill passed?
Calico is Az cents yard; a good summer
silk of nice pattern costs from % to 80 cents
yard it used to cost 81; black silk can be
cost from 50 to So so; sugar costs cents
that used to cost cents; ribbons cost half
the old price; stockings the same, and jer-
seys, since they are making them in this
country, cost half as much as the import ted.
Ladies things are down. We ladies know
that Democratic husbands can lie to each
other, but they can't lie to us. We women
are not fools. Let the Herald liar stick to
mems things when he lies, and try not to lie
about women's things. We won't stand it,
Pm Democratic woman, but don't want
any lying to keep the party up. We women
are not fools.

body was found in the brush a mile west of

farmer and boy who were chasing a hen,
which had made nest in the brush. The
boy followed on his hands and knees and
discovered a small tent, and in it was the
dead body of a woman The Coroner's jury
yesterday were unable to identify the body
as there were no letters on the person. On
a piece Of paper was the following; Nc
Kenzie Howard, 7l5 North Third; Bush,

Fourth, I32; Geary. 1881. The tent was
made Of light canvas and just large enough
to hold her, lying down. 1t was new and
pinned from the inside. An empty half
ounce bottle which had contained lauda-
mum was found outside the tent. The body
was dressed in a black silk skirt and calico
waist. The shoes showed no wear, and
pointed to the fact that she had either been

The brush had to be cat to get the body out.

A YOUNG HEROINE.

Wrecked at Sea, She Swims Twenty
Hours and Is Saved.
Emily Lacy, a girl under 16 years OF
age, was one of the few passengers who
survived the wreck of the Quetta. and the
story of her escape endurance and pluck
is almost past record. She had learned to
swim from her earliest days, and in the
unparalleled test to which her powers were
put she came off victorious.
Emily Lacy, in company with her sis
ter. little girl of 10 years of age, was
going to England to complete her education,
says the Cleveland Leader When the Gu eta
struck on the sharp rock, twenty feet long,
which was the cause of Shipwreck, Miss
Lacy was in the saloon writing to her
mother. She rushed downstairs and got her
sister out of bed. In the confusion, how
ever, on deck, the girls were parted never to
meet again, for this little sister, May, was
drowned, in company with the clergyman
who was taking the girls TO England.
When the Quetta sank Miss Lacy went
under the water. but quickly rose to the sur

many drowning Cingalese and sheep almost
pressed her back under the water. She man

greater part of the time swan by the side
of the raft, trying to tow it toward the
shore. She thought the shore was only two
miles off, and at last, notwithstanding Mr..
Grey's remOnstrances, determined to swim
TO it. for the purpose of bringing him back
food and water. The brave girl struck out
boldly, but soon got into crOSs-currents,
where she made little or no progress. She
was swimming for twenty hours before she
was picked up, burned and terrible object
from exposure and the heat Of the sun.
AT the time Of her rescue her strength was
nearly gone and she could only feebly raise
one arm when she saw the boat approach
ing; she said that she had often to keep her
head completely under water to avoid sun
stroke. Only the thought Of her parents
sustained the heroic girl in her valiant eff
forts to keep ahoat. She said that she had
no fear of death either from drowning or
sharks.
There are few girls who would have the
physical strength or the bravery of heart to
do as Miss Lacy has done; but the value Of
learning to swim well has been abundantly
illustrated in her case.

Oakland Mill HANDS Are for an Eight
Hour Day.
The striking mill carpenters are well
pleased with the progress of their battle for
reduction Of working hours, and are COR
fdent Of victory. They held mass meeting
last night at which reports were received
from all the picketS in this city and all the
shops across the bay. The piekets reported
that they had induced some non-union men
10 desert the bosses. and that on the other
hand the bosses, who have two agents in
Los Angeles, secured several carpenters to
take strikers places.
The Oakland delegates reported that the
benchmen employed in a mill at West
Berkeley struck work yesterday and will
not return until the eight-hOur day has been
established. They also made known that
the hands employed in the East Oakland
Planing-mill had passed a resolution to the
effect that on and after next Monday they
will work but eight hours a day.
A delegate from San Jose reported that
all the mill carpenters are working only
eight hours o day. He remarked that it was
very strange that San rancisco mill-owneTs
cannot afford to do as the San Jose en-
plOyers have done.
Another delegate stated that some of the
leading members of the Mill-owners' Asso-
citation who are opposing the demand for
an elght-hour day were prominent among the
carpenters who agitated for an eight-hOur
day in 1867, but since they have ceased TO
be Journeymen change has come over
them.
There is some talk Of levylng a boycott
on building material prepared in struck
shops, and tho carpenters believe thac If
such action were taken the strike would
speedily end in their favor, but they will
not resort to the boycott until all other
weapons have been tried and proven failures

a Weary Immigrant Views the Fatal
Illusion and Dies.
A burning summer sun had beaten down
on the prairie for days. Furnace-like, the
south winds came racing out of the pulsing
haze at the far horizon. The sky seemed Of
copper, and the foor-like plains once enc
raid disk was tinged by the heat with grayish
brown.
But one object broke the monotonous
sameness of the scene - white-coYered
wagon, its Tapping canvas top giving scant
shelter to the emigrant and his wife crOuched
within. Their journey has been long, and
fever thr0bS IN the woDian's veins.
Suddenly the man looks up, startled.
Their search for home is over.
"Seep' he cries joy.
They have come out on the edge of wide
reaching valley. Lines CT dense-leaved,
billOwy forest bend and sway in a gentle
breeze. A lake, with here and there a
touch of foam to relieve the sparkling blue
of the waves, restlesSly losses and wrinkles
its waters. Broad meadows, suggesting
clover and golden rod. are near by, and the
undulatiOns of the grass are like those of the
lake. Yonder, along the beach, they catch
a glimpse of notwithstanding palaces
whose bold frontage was their simple minds.
''See" calls out again the glad husband,
and his strong arm lifts the fainting wife
that she may get a better view.
Rest is there, and hope and joy. The
burdens OF the past nave been so gTeatI In
the fierce race of life they have been left 80
far behind; but now the journey over the
thin-grassed prairie is almost ended-the
haven is in sight. They can almost taste
the fruits Of the deep-foliaged trees and
catch scent of the clover and of the sea.
HuDgrily, earnestly they feast their eyes
as they gaze through the opening in the flap
ping canvas.
A passing cloud drifts suddenly before
the sun.
A cry of pain and Disappointment surges
to the Woman's lips as she sees again
dreary length of plain. whose level lines
had so long fatigued her eyes. The torrid
wind finds not leaf to stir. She falls back
on her heat-fillcd pillow.
The mirage has lifted. The emigrant is
alone in the midst of the prairie with his
dead.-Hetrnit Free Press.

UNCLE SANS GUNS,
How They Are Made and Kept in order

How They Are Made and Kept in order
for Use If Required.
The forging of the immense guns is most
interesting process. The rifled guns of the
present are made by reinforcing theLtube
with rings and repeated layers of steel
called jackets, which are fitted one over the
other over the original tube or barrel of the
gun. The jackets or hoops must fit as
closely to the gun as ii forming an integral
part of its composition, says the Memphis
Appeal. The only way to get them on
is, of course, by heating and thus
enargng them. When they cool thew
fit snugly. 1t lis evident that the ex-
act size of the jacket and ring when
heated so that it can be put in its place
must be matter of the incest mathemati-
cal calculation. The coarse powder now
used makes such havoc with the rilng of
the largest guns that 100 charges are about
all that can be expected from them. The
jackets and rings can then be removed and
fitted to another tube.
The various parts of gun are not mt to-
gether at Bethlehem, but are sent TO WASH
ington, to department of the arsenal called
the assembling-rOOm, where the tube Is
rlfied, and the gun Is finally completed. A
steel gun of the largest caliber costs about
100000. Tie ordnance of our modern
navy is therefore one of the most costly
items Tor which Congress is expected to dis
play patriotic generosity.

done by men concealed on the train.
After four weeks of useless trailing the de-
tectives abandoned the case as hopeless. A
short time ago a negro woman of La Porte,
Ind, was seen wearing beautiful dress.
She was the envy of every negress in LIZ
Porte. One Of the detectives who had been
working on the express robbery heard of
the woman. He went to La Porte, and
under the guise of misunderstanding agent,
he managed to see the dress. 1t bore the
stamp of the maker in Paris, and also the
name of the owner, a celebrated actress.
The woman was arrested, and on the promise
of not being prosecuted she peached on the
gang Of thieves. Three of the men were
negroes, William Tyler, Sam Curtin and
Wesley Weaver. A p. Craig, a whit man,
was sent to prison with them.
