REPRESENTATIVE FITNIAN's resolution instructIng the house ways and means committee to report at an early day a bill placing on the free list all sorts of agricultural implements, is a highly meritorious attempt to alleviate the burdens of a most deserving class, but before the committee could obey the instructions, should the resolution he adopted, other bills would have to be reported and passed. It would hardly be practicable for instance to put agri- cultural implements on the free list while the raw material of their compo- nent parts, lumber and metal, is taxed. The free entrance of raw material should precede that of the manufac- tured article into which it enters, according to the ideas of those whose long study of the question entitle them to recognition.

AFTER MISS BLAINE
Clerk Markle Wants to Wed
 the Secretary's Daughter.
WRITES TO HIM TO THAT EFFECT.
He Has Also Annoyed Other Cabinet
 Memb,:s With Queer Epistles

The Secretary of State Brings the Matter to the Notice of the Comm lssiOn oo Lunacy-An Inquiry Into His Sanity Will be Made Next Saturday, HTarlxle Says He Does Not Know What the Charges are Based Upon-Always Re- garded as Eccentric.
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 9-Ozias J. Markle wants to marry Miss Hattie Blaine.
 Markle is a clerk employed in the War Department, and came here from Massil- lon, O. He is good-looking and abont 30 years of age. He wrote number of letters to Secretary Blaine. In one of them he requested Mir. Blaine to accord him an interview in his library and in troduce him to his daughter, whom he expressed great desire to marry.
 Influenced perhaps by the recollecti on of the man who pursued Mary Anderson, and the more recent instance of Miss Helen Gould's unbalanced admirer, MT. Blaine brought the communication to the attention of the authorities.
 Investigation made by Inspector Frank brought to light other letter-writing episodes of Markle's career. It was fouud that he had been annoying other mem bers of the Cabinet with strange letters, and had written in queer vein to other prominent men in the city.
 Thnse epistles indicated an unbalanced mind, and the authorities concluded that it would be best to hold an examination in the case, if nothing moro was done. MT. George Hazleton, attorney for the | District of Columbia, issued summons | for MT. Markle to appear before the Com | mission on Lunacy, and show cause why | he should not be consigned to an asylum. The Commission met but Markle failed to appear. The Commission adjourned after deciding to repeat the summons re- questing Markle to come befole them. Markle was arraigned in court and the case postponed until next Saturday. "When I received the summons to appear l thought it must be a joke" he said. "After thinking 1t over con suited lawyer and was told that l need not appear at the court unless l wished | to. l cannot imagine who instigated this, but am sure it was not friend. ] have no idea what the charges are based upon. I have been away from my office since the 21st of December on account ot sickness, and perhaps that has something to do with it'
 When the letters were mentioned ht gave evidence of no surprise.
 The people at Markle's boarding place said that he had always been regarded as eccentric, but his sanity had not beel questioned. They said he was always very reserved and quiet, and frequently would refuse to speak to acquaintance when he met them. Markle, it is said has aspired to the hands of the daughter: of other Cabinet officers, sending then the same kind of letters that were ad ressed to Secretary Blaine.

The Questionable Ingredients from While

The Questionable Ingredients from Which
 1t Is Made.
 An inquiring stranger, who was be- ing shown over a British wine manu- factory, was struck by several high mounds of crimson dust These. he was told. were the refuse of the wine presses, in which the juice of rasp- berries, entrants, and other fruit used in the business was extracted for maE- ing the wine As it is seldom that anything is wasted in an English factory, an inquiry was made as to the form in which these mounds of dust would re-enter the market; the visitor was promptly told that it was disposed of to jam makers to give the appear ance of fruit to the pulp of turnip. vegetable, apple. or whatnot which forms the basis of the confection. It would seem that almost anything will do to make jam of, as the chemist can produce a flavor to initiate every kind of fruit It is commonly supposed that orange peel is picked up in the streets wherewith to make marmalade. Probably this is islander on the pre- serve maker; but,a according to tho report of a case heard this year in a metropolitan police court, rotten oranges in the condition of a ''black pulpy substance" as "quite unfit to eat" and the inspector very sapiently remarked, are considered by the own CTS of the fruit as good enough to be chopped up for marmalade." Oranges for this excellent substitute for butter at breakfast" it was shown, cost only four shillings box, whereas fruit for i eating costs twelve shillings. A dis | quieting fact indeed.

followed it A rush is a strange fea- ture of life in a mining country-one never knows whither the next one will be, of course, but there is always that strange fascination about it that leads men on, on, nywhere-oftenest to bitter disappointment.
 Mac and I went because we were out of work and out of money, because it was not for us far to go, and, mainly, because we had friend who wanted to 'grubstake" us
 The man who made the first find, and whose story started the rush, had told Collins, our friend, among the first, so we got on the move before the crowd did and had a little time to prospect
 On the afternoon of our second day in the canyon, was resting beside a big rock in gulch leading down from the hills when heard yell from Mac, who was nosing around up on the side of the gulch.

THE man who proposed secret sessions of the federal house-of representatives, might as well be stricken from the list. He never would be missed. The secret sessions of the senate are not successful in keeping the knowledge of what is transacted from the press, and there is no reason to suppose the house would succeed as well. The house will do well to let the secret session nonsense alone. The proposition is of piece with the bill to punish newspapers for ridiculing public persons, and both might be classed as granny" legislation.

SENIOR MoNTT, the Chilian minister, was on the floor of the house Saturday afternoon, while the eulogistic addresses on the late Representative Lee were being delivered, and members who talked with hIm believe mere strongly than ever that Mir Harrison's ultimatum was entirely unnecessary and uncalled for by the status of the negotiations at the time it was sent. Senor Montt speaks very guardedly on the subject, but it is easy to see how he feels about 1t.

oRAY DAWN.

 The dense white fog in drowsy folds Bedeclxs the sleeping rivers bed; About the hills 1t hangs and holds In ragged patches, overhead, Et slowly, idly drifts away.
 The sullen mill-dam boonns and rCars, And drenched with clouds of flying spray The wet, black rocks along the shores Frown darkly at the coming day. Gray dawn peeps in and sweetly smiles: A light breeze. sweeping down the stream, Lifts high the fog in snowy piles;
 The suns first burning lances gleam Along the pebbled river banks,
 And misty hosts, in mad retreat, Withdraw their broken scattered ranks, The bold sun marks their sad defeat And .dissipates their struggling Hanks. Gray dawn gives place to ruddy day;
 The gray sun swings through azure skies; And sl1imming, where the ripples play,
 The screaming fish-hawks fall and rise. The glassy water, cool and clear,
 Reflects one solitary cloud; And morning song birds, far and near, Repeat their matins shrill and loud: ''The night is done, and day is here.''
 -"S. Q. Lapius," |" in N. E. Magazine.

ONE of the biggest items of expense caused by the recent complications be- tween our country and Chili was the cost of telegraphing. For each word that was transmitted by cable to Chili this government paid $1.7O. How true it is that it is an Ill wind that blows mo- body any good. The cable companies have reaped rich harvest during the past three months. Ten thousand words at $1.70 word produces the snug sum of S17,000. Many more words than this will have to be sent out before the Chilian affair is finally settled. It is in- teresting to note the course these cable mission and the route over which they have passed. The most direct route to Chill is by Galveston, Texas, and it is by this route that our cablegrams have been transmitted. After the message was delivered to the Western Union Telegraph company at Washington, it was sent to the central cable office in New York city. There it was turned over to expert cable operators and sent to Galveston, Texas.
