TARIrF PICTURES.

Since the Mckinley Tariff law went
into effect there have been notable re-
ductions in the price of staple jokes of
general consumption. Where the witt
cism about the slow messenger boy for
merly brought twenty-five cents it can
now be obtained for fifteen cents.
The goat and the circus jester once
brought fifty cents per jestlet.
Now it goes begging at fifty cents per
dozen.
Witticisms about the expansion of the
Chicago girls foot once fetched as high
as seventy-five cents in the joke market.
Now no philosopher will pay more
than fifteen cents.
Mother-in-law jokes, once in great de-
mand at 81, are now practically unsala-
BILE. We quote three cents per dozen as
the price.
The merry piece of wit about the pr
terfamilias who sets the dog on his
daughters young man occasionally
brought as high as $3.50. Now the joke
constructor is lucky if he gets twenty
cents for it.
Plumber jokes, and those about the
ice man, once commanded brisk sale at
fifty cents each.
Now twenty-fvecents is the maximum
price.-BrooklyR Life.

THENEw MISUNDERSTANDING.

1t is the late dukes younger brother
George who now steps into the vacant
place as heir-presumptive to the British
crown. There was only difference of
two years between their ages and until
the Duke of Clarence went tn the univer-
sity the two brothers, though presenting
che greatest i'm 'ginable contrast to each
other both morally and physically, were
inseparable. Full of vivacity, spirit, and
go, he has always been regarded from
childhood up as the infant terrible of the
royal family, and innumerable are the
stories related of his wicked practical
jokes and everlasting scrapes. The mere
mention of his name in England is suffi-
cient to cause the features of John Bull
to relax and to develop into broad grin.
He is as noted for his facility of getting
into mischief as his elder brother was
for keeping out of it; and it is possibly
this which was endowed him with a
popularity among the masses that was
Withheld from the Duke of Clarence until
the last few weeks previous to his death.
Moreover, England being essentially a
maritime power, sailors hold strong
place in the regard and affection of their
cOuntrymen, who are ready to extend to
seafaring men an indulgence Withheld
from every other profession. This, too,
is no doubt accountable for much of the
public favor accorded to Prince George.
The latter will now, however, be forced
to give up all further active service in
the navy and go to settle down on dry
land. His life has now become doubly
precious to his family as well as the
nation. Aside from the question of love
and affection, there are grave considera-
tiOns Of IL dynaslic and political nature
which render it imperative that he should
be prevented from mourning any risk, at
any rate until he has married and provid.
ed one or more heirs to the crown. For
were he to die unmarried, it would be
his sister, the Duchess of Fife, who
would assume his place in the line of
succession to the crown, and the British
people would be brought within meas
urable distance Of seeing a cOmmOner,
in the persons of the Duchess of Flies
little daughter, Miss Alexandra Duff,
styled lady of Alexandra merely by cour-
tesy, seated on the throne of England.
Were this ever to occur, the very found
atiOns of the monarchy would be shaken,
for the prestige attached to royal blood
and royal birth, which forms the chief
basis of the mOnarchical system in Eng
land, would become thing of the past.

pouring perfect hail of pistol bullets
into the cab as his pursuers went by.
Then the pursuers stopped and the pur-
sued went ahead. Another artillery duel
ensued, the shotgun taking part this
time. No one was hurt. Two miles be-
yond the robber found his engines
steam giving out, so he jumped off at a
cross road and started across the cOun-
try, going south. He terrorized farm
er into letting him have horse and rode
two miles further south. Here he pro-
cured horse and cutter by firing on
their owner, German farmer.
The party on the express engine re-
turned to Lyons, where the sheriff of
Wayne county had organized a posse
which, under Deputy Sheriff Collins,
started in pursuit. The farmers along
the robbers line of retreat also turned
out fully armed. The runaway was
sighted five miles south of Newark. The
roads are very bad and he had made
poor speed. He abandoned his rig and
ran across lots to BensOn's swamp. But
the swamp proved too full of water to be
penetrated and the fugitive halted be-
hind a stone wall and faced his pursuers.
After some parley he surrendered to
Deputy Sheriff Collins. He was taken
back to LYONS and jailed He gave the
name of William Gross, said he was
from New Mexico and had been board
ing in Syracuse for some time. He adj
mitted that he was the man who at
tempted the train robbery. He is be-
lieveI to be the much wanted Oliver
Curtis Perry, who robbed Express Mes
senger Moore near Utica last fall
The express messenger will not talk,
but it is learned that Cross boarded the
train at Syracuse and climbed on top of
the express car. He had hooked-rope.
Fastening the hook in the cornice of the
roof on one side of the car he let him
self down on the other, and resting his
toes on the ledge that runs along the car,
he looked in the glass of the side door
and saw the messenger in front of an
open safe, making up his bills. Cross
smashed the glass, covered the messen-
ger with his revolver and shouted to
hold up his hands McInerny, however,
reached for the signal cord with one
hand and for his revolver with the other.
The bullet smashed the hand on the
cord, but it had given the signal that
aroused the conductor. Then McInerny
fired and put a bullet through the rob-
ber's coat. Thereupon the robber shot
the messenger twice, once in the right
leg and once in the left temple. Cross
climbed into the Car and desperate
struggle took place, which did not end
until the train was slapped for the first
time near Weedsport The robber
climbed out on top of the car and re-
NAMED there until the train reached
Lyons. So far as can be learned the rob-
Der secured absolutely nothing.
ROCHESTER,, N. Y. Feb. 22.-The Am
erican express car robber has been fully
identified as Oliver Curtis Perry, of
Syracuse, suspected of the Utica train
robbery last October, and has confessed
that he is the mau wanted for that at
tempt.
The wounded messenger is doing well
at his home in this city. The bullet
was extracted from his leg this evening,
and the attending physicians say that
unless some complication intervenes, he
will recover.

For several months past the newspa-
pers have been bored with the fulmina-
tiUns of one Rev. Coppihger, claiming to
represent an organization to colonize
Liberia with American negroes. The
fato of the 100 forlorn colored people
who recently reached New York from
Indian Territory under promise of free
transportation to the proposed African
colony only to find that Coppinger and
his scheme were both invisible, sug-
gests the need of suppressing such swim
dies. There are several of them in pro-
gress. One lately endeavored to lure
Alabama negroes to mythical colony
OH the California coast. Another held
up Oklahoma as a second land of prom
Use. In each instance the prospective
immigrant, after being assessed fee in
advance, was left to meet the cruel
realization as best he could. Under the
least oppressive circumstances such de-
ceptiOns are contemplate; but when
their victims are helpless people often
unable to discriminate between fair and
false promises, they become infinitely
mean. If COppinger is guilty-as charged,
he should be made m example.

When Prince George of Wales took
command OF the guuboat Thrush he
took upon himself the usual duty Of
conducting the religious service on
the vessel on Sunday mornings Ev-
crything went on well apparently. but
at the end Of about four weeks some
ono suggested TO the prince that he
was not reciting the liturgy according
to Cranmer although the ships crew
was highly flattered by his rendering,
He had been reciting fervently and
humbly: I'VE have done these things
that we ought to have done and have
left undone those things which we
ought not TO have done and the crew
had been accepting his statement OF
the case and feeling good.
