CIRoUMsrANrIAL EVIDENCE.

Curious Experience OF q Missionary
TO the Cherokees.
G. @. Torrey, formerly missionary Of the
American Board to the Cherokee Indians,
relates the following incident in letter to
the Boston Journal from SeArsport, Me-:
"In 1858 half breed Cherokee. George
Sanders, borrowed one of my horses to 60
to store near the Arkansas line on oondi-
ton that he would get him shod. The
horse when he took him had the near fore
foot bare, the of forefoot with half a shoe
and both hind feet with old shoes without
calks.
"About midnight was awakened by .
succession of whoops and the gs.loping of
a horse round and round my house, . log
cabin. The horse hhd lesped thelow fence

corresponding exactly to the shoeing of the

Sanders was 9 trusty young man and I
was deeply grieved at this evidence of .

'T went TO his home In the morning. he
was in bed, thought it was late. When he
came out asked him where my horse was.

Sanders. Sure enough, we found the

As he was about to return we saw an In

USEFUL PROTECTION.

During the last few weeks demagogues
have been trying to make it appear that
this Isn't a very good country for work
hasn't done much for them. Mr.. Joseph
Nimmo has something to say about this,
and he puts the facts in a way that Is i'm
pressive. Let the workingman, he says,
ask himself this simple question: Can it be
possible that the American lsborer suffers
from . policy under which, for example,
tho iron product of the United States
increased from 9s7, ,559 tons in 1850 to
9,202, ,793 tons in 1890; under which
the product of the carpet industry
increased from $4,000, 900 yards in 1850
to 74,00O,00O yards, including all the
higher grades, in 1890; under the
operation of which the number of
persons employed in the entire me-
ohanioal and manufacturing indus
dustries of the United States increased
from 1 ,s11 ,24s in 1860 to 8, 4OO, 900 in 1890,
and under the operation of which II, $685. :
287 immigrants arrived In the United
oc0tob boeWooA low oAu low AhOAos2sos
During this entire period the tendency of
wages has been upward, and is 80 to-day.
Can 1t be possible that these are the fruits
of policy opposed to the interests of Ia
boring mens Or, to bring the matter still
closer home. let the American laborer ask
himself this question: Can it be possible
that the protective policy can be op-
posed to the interests of labor while 1t
enormously increases the amount of en-
ployment of American labor, and while 1t
directly maintains the wages of the Ameri-
can laborer above those paid to lsborers in
the countries of Europe, whence hundreds
of thousands of them have come to engage
In the very same employments In which
they wore before engaged in Europei
There are millions of foreign-born laborers
in this country to-day who can answer
these questions from their own experience
and by their own action in coming to this
more highly favored land of the laboring
man, never to return.
It IL not necessary to claim that the lot
of tho workingman in this country is all
pie. But it is far better than that of the
workingman in any of the countries of the
old world. And 1t cannot be fairly denied
that protection has hsd much to do with
making 1t go.

the reckonings of himself and his oppo-
nent, but also those of all the students
who were present. In the event of both

the oldest fellows would be chosen to de-

CURED. remember well one occasion In
1885, when such a wager was made at the
Flora in Konigsberg. OF the two partici-
pants one was native of Lithuanis and
the other of New Zealand. They COM
menced at p. m. At 11:30 p. m. each
drank his 6ftieth glass amidst thundering
applause. They rose quietly from the
table and showed themselves TO be ss sober
as they were before the duel began. In
this instance each paid his own score, and
the lockers on were compelled, much to
their chargin, to do the same.
One of the most notable beer battles,
however, that I am acquainted with, took
place at Gottingen In 1884.
Twelve young students, who gloried In
their ambiguous repute as beer drinkers,
and every one of whom asserted that he
could drink more than the other, deter
mined to decide the momentous question
by Homerio beer drinking contest.
Nothing was talked of for DAYS before
but the coming combat, and several hum
dred students assembled In the largo
decorated hall to witness the great event.
young fellows took their he IS places ss'ss At
. specially arranged table. A presi-
dent and vice president were elected;
. young student was appointed to wait
upon each of the contestants, behind every
one Of whom stood Q cask of beer, contain
ing about 100 large glasses of beer; then Q
timekeeper was chosen for each mar, whose
duty it was to mark down the number of
glasses drunken and the time taken by the
man. The president called attention, made
a short, appropriate speech, ordered q salA-
mander to be rubbed-an important part
OF the students beer-drinking ceremony
called for q song, which was sung with
that pathos and power common 10 the
Germans, and proclaimed the duel be-
gun. There was no riotous behavior, song
and fun abounded, and quarrelsoms voices
were never heard. Every two hours the
number OF glasses psrtaken of by each
combatant was called out amidst the hur-
rahs or jeers, as the case might be, of
those standing around. A photograph of
the proceedings was taken every three
hours, and many . ridiculous and mirth-
provoking scene the pictures portrayed.
At the seventh hour only seven were cspa-
BILE of drinking more; at the ninth, three;
1t the tenth hour only one solitary student
still drank copious drsughts. The latter's
record, which is the greatest know of,
IN this occasion WAS eeventy-eight large
glasses of beer, or about siIty-four pints,
al in ten hours. The smallest number
was hfty-three.

wHITELAw REID. Of New York.
TO AND FROM JACKSON Park.
The managers of the great show at Chi
oago have reached what they think is
satisfactory solution of the problem of
transportation of the multitudes to and
from jackson park. It is calculated that
besides the private oonveyances and omni-
bssses FIVE public lines of travel will be
sufficient to accommodate the visitors.
These are tho Illinois Central railroad, the
alley elevated road, the State street cable,
the Cottage avenue cable and the Henry
steamboat syndicate. 1t is believed that
these lines combined can, in an emergency,
carry as many as 100, 900 people per hour
to and from the fair, though the
average amount will fall consid-
erably below that number. The
travel from the north and west sides
of the city, including their numerous hotels
aad boarding houses, will find its way to
the fair through the down town districts.
To relieve tho strain somewhat on the west
side the Northern Pacific and the Balti-
more and Ohio railroads will establish
train service from Austin park to the ex-
position grounds. This will make in all
six lines to carry the people between the
city and Jackson park and, so far as pres
ent appearances 60, they are all that can
be depended upon. The costly and expen-
sive terminal tracks erected by the
management in jackson park will
not be used by any of the railroads
except for trains coming into the
grounds from other cities. The
Illinois Central and the Northern Pacific
Baltimore and Ohio combination will land
their passengers outside the grounds, as
will also both of the cable lines. The
alley elevated road alone will go into jack
son park proper. The reason assigned for
the refusal of the railroads to use the ter
minals is that it would be too expensive
and that the terminals are of the stub-end
pattern instead of loops and are therefore
not satisfactory.
Those who went to the Centennial and
after hard days work in sightseeing had
to wait an hour or two before they could
get chance to ride into the city will hope
to avoid similar inconvenience when they
60 to Chicago. The plans for transporta-
ton at Chicago appear to be adequate.

NEW YORK. Aug. q.
The Market opens Somewhat I'm
steady-Characterize BY Dullness-
Traders Bid Up New England-An
Unfavorable July Statement From
Readins-It Has Little Effect Upon
the Market.
The London stock exchange kept holiday to-
day. This curtailed operations In stocks having
an international market and contributed towards
dullness. Several of the leading operators In the
industrials left town for their regular Saturday
holiday. These two conditions made the stock
market unusually stagnant, dealings being quite
limited. The opening was somewhat unsteady,
and fractional declines from last nights closing
were the rule.
1t is probable that the decision in the Reading
lease has caused some alarm among the dealers
of the ndustrials that partake of trust nature.
Traders bid up New England. In the first hour
| there were few other changes OF Importance.
Missouri Pacific weakened, and then recovered,
| as did National Lead. Distilling certificates
showed a tendency to decline under the hammer
ing Of the room traders. General Electric made
| important gains.
There was no material change In the later
trading, either in price or volume. The state
ment of the Reading road for July will no doubt
be viewed with considerable disa ppointment. 1t
shows a decrease in net earnings OF some magni-
| tude. It was generally understood that the re-
port would be unfavorable and 50 the effect on
| the stock to-day was not appreciable.
