Meantime the long summer day drew
to close. Birds billed and cooed and
built their nests in the shrubbery. butter
flies chased each other in loving gambols
over the brilliant flower beds, dorbugs
and beetles caressed each other with
neir antennae; even the anus ne waUcneu
tugging bits Of material up little sand
hill were making home. The new hay
on the lawn cut by the gardener sent out
sweet puffs Of fragrance. Every Great
ure was happy with its mate, but Mark
sat looking stupidity at the blind wall
that divided him from the girl of his
heart, not howing-skilled mechanician
though he was-how to scale it.
About six in the mild glow of the sum-
mer evening his father came home to
dinner. Mark was totally unlike his
father, who, with his upright rigidity,
his gray, spare countenance and rectan-
gular movements, resembled walking
ledger. But though the two men did
not understand each other, they had
great mutual respect, even affection.
Each was to the other an undiscovered
country worthy of exploration. They
were very shy, however, Of showing any
tokens of affection. The handsome,
white haired, rosy checked wife and
mother was the object on whom they
both lavished such tenderness as they
had to give. Now the three were
grouped around the dinner table, and
made a rather striking family party.

average ~ Tor fourteen hours OF toll -'rne
work of the WAIVERS was exacting AMI tiresome
in the extreme and 66eS cents per day was
above the average pay.
Commenting on these figures the Com
mercial Bulletin says:
The compensation of a wage worker shows q
marked increase. The women OF the weave
room now average IS per week OF sixty hours
and the men SO week. while mule spinners
carpenters, painters and other outside laborers
have doubled within the last fifty years, and
their hours Of labor materially lessened-
The persons who hold 4 brief for
''the good old times when compelled
to admit the statements in reference to
the hours of labor may reply that whilst
the wage-wOrker might have to work
longer he lived better than he does now
on account of the cheapness of the
articles in common use. Unfortunately
for them, facts are against them. Here
is the description the Commercial Bull
letin gives of the mode of living during
the era of ''cheapness:"
The meat brought on to the table of the wage
worker OF that day wa pork. Coffee, tea, milk
and sugar we're ussl spsringly and molasses
was almost invariably used for sweetening.
Satlnet Tor winter wear and pankeen Tor sum
mer use were the garments Of men and boys
alike. Cowhide covered the feet OF the boys in
winter. During the other months they went
barefoot Their winter garments included
neither undershirts nor overcoats, but the
wooden comfOrters served instead Calico was
the ordinary dress for women. and but feY
varied therefrom even on Sunday. In the tene-
ments stoves were unknown, carpets were be-
yond the occupants means, and the walls were
unadorned with paper or pictures Chairs were
Of wood only. The feather bed was usually for
the comfort Of the parents, and the younger
members slept on straw. One room served for
their sitting ROOM dining room and kitchen,
and the garnet was rarely separated by par
tition. The rug before each bed was OF braided
wooden rags. These operatives, it must be re-
membered. were native American men and
women who came from country towns -
This is not picture that will bear
out the assertions about the good old
times" being so far superior to the
present. The advocates of protection
have nothing to fear from any COM
parison that may be instituted between
the mode of living that prevailed under
the free trade policy and that which
prevails under the protection policy.

THOSE "Goo0 OLD TIMES"

How Wages and Prices Compared with
the Present-What People Ate aud Wore
and How They Lived - What Changes
Protection Has Made.
MANY of our readers have no doubt
heard some of their acquaintance laud-
ing the good old times and comparing
them with the present, much to the dis
advantage of the latter. As the good
old times" were under tariff for-revenue
administrations the inference would
naturally be that we can never have
these good old times back again until
we adopt the modified form of free
trade that is described by the term
'stariff for revenue only" If those,
however, who have had a personal eX-
perionce of those good old times" will
sit down and figure out the work they
had to do and the amount of compensa-
ton they received, and then compare
the result of their figuring with the
hours of labor and the wages PAID To-
day, they will find that they have no
basis for their glorifcation of the free
trade regime.
An old Massachusetts cotton mill
superintendent, who has been doing the
sort of figuring we refer to, forwards
the result to the Boston Commercial
Bulletin Here is his description of the
good old times"
The hours Of work were then from g. m 70

sition in response to Chairman Midg-

is a feeling that the whole movement
is a trick engineered by the Santa Fe

advantage which they have enjoyed
heretofore in handling through bust
ness in connection with the Indiana,

double proportion'of the through rate

KYLE'S SEAT TAINTED.
Its Legality May Be Tested Later
On.

Specials to the Globe.
PIERRE. S. d., Feb. 1.-THE question
was raised to-day over the legality of
Kyle's election to the United States
senate. The claim is made that the con-
stitutional requirement provides that a
majority Of all the members of the leg
islature is necessary, which would ne
ceSSitate Kyle receiving eighty-fve
votes, whereas the vote stood: Kyle,
rs; Sterling. So; Tripp, 8; Campbell, l,
with thirty paired or absent on the last
ballot. What is now only question of
general discussion promises to soon as
sumo Importance enough to be tested in
the proper manner. Meanwhile Senator
KYLE has received congratulations from
all sections Of the country. A rumor
circulated yesterday, alleged to have
been based upon dispatch from Spring
field. that Palmer was elected at the
same time Kyle was. 1t caused great
excitement, and was undoubtedly one
reason of Kyle's election being rushed
through, prior understanding being he
would not go in until Wednesday. The
report proving canard yesterday,
others have been flying about to-day re-
garding Palmer's election, though
finally disproved by dispatches, but
have kept political circles in constant
ferment. The assertion that Mr.. Seward
had gone to Springfield to fix deal, is
now contradictad, it appearing upon
good evidence that Seward didn't enter
Springfield. Senator Kyle departed for
Sioux Falls to-day for several days ab-
sence.
HURON, S. D.. Feb. 17.-Speaker
: Seward arrived from Illinois this after
noon and went to Pierre. He would
not talk about the senatorial combine
between Illinois and South Dakota, but
said he was assured by Chairman Full
Ter. of the Illinois steering committee
that Palmer would be chosen. He said
he expected Kyle's election, but didn't
think it would occur till Thursday and
was surpslSed when he learned it this
morning. He regards Kyle a good
Democrat and his election real victory
for that party. Independents claim
Kyle, but not enthusiastically. The
scheme was sharp and successfully
worked. Kyle was here this afternoon
going to meet his wife in Sioux Falls,
and was congratulated by representa-
tives of all political parties, including
several old soldiers. To one of the latter
he remarked: cpl guard the interests
of old soldiers carefully. Pll not forget
them"

One OF the Longest and Most

Mills on Record.
The Spectators Wild With EX-
element and Yearning

And the Gymnasium Is Turned
Into a Perfect Pande-

MINNEAPOIIs, Feb. 1.-THE Need
ham-Ryan fight was one of the longest
and most stubbOrnly contested on rec
ord. 1t was fight from the word go.
The Twin City Athletic club rooms
were crowded all day with members and
visitors from outside cities, who came
with the intention of witnessing the
Needham-Ryan fight tonight. Some
I25 of the Chicago delegation arrived on
the morning train, and another
joblot got in on the afternoon
trains. Omaha, Kansas City, Duluth,
West Superior, Saltwater, Eau Claire
and other outside villages are well rep
resented. The Chicago delegation had
plenty of money, and it was rapidly
taken, the betting veering from 500 to
80 on Needham to even money. The
room used for the fight was the gymnas-
fun of the club. large steam-heated
annex to the club proper. For this Oc-
casion all the gymnaStic material had
been taken out and an amphitheater
erected on the ground floor. The press
seats occupied one side of the lower
floor on the left hand corner Of the
ring.
The Ring
Itself was the regulation twenty-f0ur foot
size. The posts were careful y padded,
and the ropes covered with felt so that
