The sheep Industry in New Hampshire.

The Sneep Industry In new hampshire
Amos Cummings prints in the New York
Sun an interesting series of stories told in
congress-, among them the following: The
Rev. Luther F. Mckinney, Of New Hamp-
shire. told an excellent story in bis tariff
speech on April 2. Joseph D. Taylor, in
interrupting him had compared the price
Of wool under the Walker tariff with the
price Of wool under the Mckinley tariff.
He said that sheep would yield a greater
profit in Ohio to-day than they did at any
time during the fifteen years Of the Walker
tariff. Mr.. Mckinney replied that he sup
posed that meant that the sheep grew
larger and the wool thicker and stronger
under a protective tariff. To show what
would be the future condition of the farmer
in Ohio he told this story:
II was talking not long ego with an old
farmer in New Hampshire. I said to him:
"You used to raise lots of sheep here; now
you haven't any sheep in your county,
"tWell,' the farmer replied, they are
rapidly going ont. We used to raise a
pretty big flock OF sheep on this farm when
I was a boy, but we have gone down snd
down. until we nave only one old sheep or
the place.
II said to him: I suppose you keep it al
a m%enento.'
Eyes he replied. we have go
Il hydraulic ram down in the meadow tn a
supplies the house and barn with water
That's the only sheep we've got, and to-day,
if the Mckinley bill undertakes to raise tn,
tariff, We will not DO able to suppors a hy
draulic ram in the state of New Hamp
shire.'" 4---@@~

The Burla, Monopoly of Paris.

"One of the largest, best managed and
most profitable industries Of Parls." says
Mr.. Edmund spearman in his paper on
1.-The Burial Monopoly Of Paris,'' 'is that
Of the Ponpes Funebres, which alone has
the privilege OF transporting the dead
through the streets of Paris in funeral
style. II possesses uadertakers' material
to the value OF over 1000. 600 francs, does
some 6,0o0,0 600 q year Of business, and turns
over nearly $500, 900 of this rs clear profit
to its accredited owners, the church estab-
lishment of the city. after gratuitously
and decently buryinR some three out OF
every Eve of the lead as INDECENT sub-
%jects." This gigantic monopoly is a result
of the revolution. TN the days of the an
cient regime the dead were carried on the
shoulders of drunken porters. Ths repub-
lican government orbade any but the
bodies OF children under seven years of age
to be taken on the shoulders. and finally in
the year XII (18O3-16O4) devised the present
monopoly, by which the poor should be
buried at the expense of the display Of thu

The President spent q very quiet and un-
eventful day today. In the morning be drove
over to the monument grounds with Secretary
Halford to witness the celebration there, re-
turning TO the Executive Mansion about Il
O'Clock. He occupied his time until the lunch
con hour arrived by looking over his mail and
going through some official papers. In the
afternoon he took a drive with Mrs. Harrison
ont into the country away from the noise and
din of the city.
The absence Of his grandson benjamin and
little Mary, who are with their parents at Bev-
erly, Mass. prevented his firing off any fire.
works in honor Of the national holiday. and the
peaceful stiffness of the grounds around the
Executive Mansion was not broken by the ex-
plosion Of a single cracker or bomb.
The cabinet is widely scattered today. Sec
retaries Elkins and Charles Foster are in the
wilds of the Alleghanies, near Mr.. Elkins West
Virginia home, angling for mountain trout and
keeping an eve out for a shot at buck or O
bear. which are said TO be plentiful up there:
Secretary Tracy is ut Woodstock, Conn, where
he is to make an address, as will also Attorney
General Miller. Postmaster General wana-
maker is at Philadelphia. Secretary Rusk spent
part of the day at his desk and then returned to
his home. Secretary John W. Foster was busily
engaged at his desk all day. Secretary Noble
remained at home all day.
