Played william Tell,

New YORK. Jan. 20.-Jacob Schoelle1
and Frank Froenhoefer are two little
boys whose parents live at 2S Powers
street and ST. Grand street, Brooklyn.
The boys played William Tell on the
street this morning. Frank agreed to
be the son and have the apple shot from
his head. Jacob was only too glad to
officiate as Tell. Armed with an air gun
he stood off about twenty feet from
where stood Frank with the apple poised
on his head, Jacob aimed deliberately
and pulled the trigger. Little Frank
dropped, bleeding from a wound in the
forehead, and the apple rolled into the
gutter. Frank was taken home and a
physician put court plaster on the
wound, which, luckily, was not a bad
one. Schoeller was arrested, but Franks
father would not press the complaint.

What Know About Hardware and
What Guess About '92.

The year OF 1892 promises to be a
year OF low prices. Cotton, corn, hogs,
pig iron and real estate are likely to
be lower on an average in 1892 than
they were in 1891. While | do not
look for any scarcity of loana BILE funds
the dominant and restless state of the
labor element, pernicious legislation
against capital which borders on con.
fiscation, and the frequency of dishon-

bankers, has scared capital and forced
much of it into idleness, hence rail,

BOnnd to Have "A Row.

LONDON, Jan. 20.-The Socialist
leaders held a meeting at their head
quarters to decide upon the plan of the
great Socialistic labor demonstration
which it is proposed to hold in defiance
of the prohibition of the police, Jan. 81.
at Worlds End, Chelsea, and in which
it is expected that 100000 people will
take part. John Burns raised his voice
against the project. He declared that

brush with the police whenever it was
necessary to do so, i'll resisting an unwar.
ranted attack, yet he would not approve
the inception and carrying out of a move
ment not essential to the well-being of
the organization, and in direct violation
of police order given fairly in advance.
The question being put to vote, a
majority favored the holding of the
meeting, and there is no longer any
doubt that there will be a collision on
that day between the police and the
crowd. There was the usual row at
Worlds End Sunday The Socialists
gathered, and Mr.. Watts, secretary of
the organization, began to harangue the
meeting. He was at once arrested
The mob made rush for the platform
and attempted to rescue the prisoner
The police had to use their batons freely,
breaking many heads before they got
clear of the crowd. The meeting was
soon broken up.

Dress Reform.


However much intelligent women
may yield to the tyranny of fashion,
they recognize the fact that comfort
and health are the last things with
which that ticllle goddess oncerns
herself. Indeed they know, and long
have known, that the modern dress
of their sex is positively injurious in
both these respects. They know it
as formerly many good mcn in the
South felt slavery to be wrong. and
yet felt obliged to submit to it as to
an irremcdiablc evil.
1t is pitiable that this should be so
at the height of modern civilization,
! Christian enlightenment and physio-
logical knowledge, when nearly three
thousand years ago the women of
Greece furnished the world with the
highest ideal of the female form, clad
in robes that gave freedom to every
limb. and the fullest play to every in
ternal organ.
Our all-wise Creator sought to pro-
tect the nobler vital organs. and at
the same time to provide for their
frecst movement, by surrounding them
with the ribs and giving these power
to expand with every inhalation;
but fashion seems to defy the AL
mighty.
Beginning when the bones are soft
the capacity of the chest and its pow
cr of expansion. The result is that
respiration is interfercd with, the
liver is badly crowded upon, some
times, in fact, almost cut i'm two,
while the abdominal organs arc
forced into unnatural positions,
which lead almost inevitably to seri-
! Gus disorders.
But it is a satisfaction to know
that women are realizing more and
more the CALLING and sinful character
Of this servitude. Indeed, dress re-
form is already among the recognized
movements of the age. Nor is it in
the hands of "cranks," but in those
Of road-mindcd women, who UNDER
stand the necessary limits of the re-
form proposed.
The reform is gathering momentum
both in England and in this country.
1t is something that the word and
the idea are becoming everywhere
familiar among us, and that practical
measures are in progress for it's Sue
cess The study OF physiology in
schools is helping it. Says the
Lancet:
"Thc close relation between health
and wholesome dress need hardly he
insisted on. 1t is, therefore, most
satisfactory to learn that a new
league is in process of formation.
which has for its object the reform OF
women's dress. The supporters of
this association believe that it is pos
sible to introduce radical changes ill.,
to existing modes of clothing without
sacrificing what is due to health,
comfort or grace."- Youths Com

A short time ago the Hon. r. q. Horr
gave his observations concerning the in
crease in the value of farms IN various
parts of the country to the New York
Tribune, and here is what he says:
Within. the last eight months I have
travelled extensively through the states Of
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, indiana,
Michigan. Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Kan.
Sas and Nebraska. In conversation with
hundreds of farmers and business men In
each one OF these states. I have learned
that the verdict is nearly unanimous that
land has been increasing In value steadily
for nearly two years past.

In the vicinity OF Atlantic City l was as
sured by trustworthy men that farming

they were in 1889, and that sales are much
more readily made, ut tins 9 advanced
prices, than they were two years ago etthe
very low prices Of that date.

Proeres. of beet sugar.

Henry +. Oxnard, who ls largely in
terested in the manufacture of beet
sugar at Grand Island, Neb., and in
California, thinks the sugar beet culture
can be extended in this country until
We produce all our own sugar. The
sugar bounty will make this result
probable in a very few years, but remove
the bounty, and success can never be
accomplished. Germany ana France
have extended and continue to extend
direct governmental assistance to their
sugar producers and exporters. and
with no sugar tariff to %protectit. Ameri-
can sugar beet culture would be an inn
possibility without the bounty.
Great advances have been made in
improving the quality of the beet,
n there remain great possibilities of
further advance. But even under
present conditions, sugar beets are
about the most profitable crop farmers

Neb., made 1928 net profit from five
acres of sugar beets in 1891, whereas

has proved u success under the present
bounty system, and it is strange that
free traders adopt the unbusiness-like
policy of demanding the removal Of
the sugar bounty.

sailor an,, pr.nchsr.

/ was talking with an old lake cap
tain the other day about his varied
experiences, and he told me one story
which l will try to reproduce, says Il
Minneapolis Journal man.
As the above captains steamer was
leaving the dock at Buffalo. the pilot
house, where he was standing by the
steersman. was invaded by a tall.
melancholy visaged parson, with IL
white choker and Il set of gray whis-
kers. He looked all around the little
compartment until finally his eyes
rested on the compass, and then, as
if an idea had struck him, he said:
"Ah, captain, Il you tell me the
names of the-ah-ditfcrent points
that Instrument"
"Why, cert" said the captain: "cv-
cry sailor has to know how to box the
compass before he can serve his trick
at the wheel"
"Well-ah-would you kindly name
them for me?:"
with pleasure" the captain re-
piled. And he forthwith started in
at north and went round to east, ane
south, and west, and named the whole
thirty-two points.
"Well-wcll!!n said the dominic.
"Now can you say them the other
way?:"
Surely" And the captain, who
was busy and growing a trifle impa-
tient, went around by the west, south,
and east until he reached his starting
point. But his patience was we'll
nigh worn out, and when he had fin
ished, he asked:
@Look here, my friend, what's your
business?"
II? Why, I'm a minister of the
gospel, and only work for the redemp-
tion of mankind"
Can you say the Lords praycr:?"
"Why, Of curse. What a question
to ask clergyman!"
SWELL, say it then"
The minister repeated the sacred
words with impressive favor and inc
tion, and with uncovered head.
When he was through, the captain
said:
@Now, a you say it Backward"
"Why-ah-nO," replied the min
lister; sI-ah-never tried to-"
well, then" the captain burst out,
at seems that I know my business a
darn sight better than you do yours.

N9NNd draw Off Democratic votes almost
exclusively, and give the Republicans
an extraordinary opportunity.
On the other hand, the Eastern tariff
reiormers are better informed than
other Democrats in regard to the con.
sequences CT silver sgitatio lat the East.
They are telling the truth whenthey say
that neither Rhode Island, Connecticut,
New Hampshire, nor Massachusetts,
could possibly be carried by the Demo-
cratic party If tainted with the silver
heresy. They make it clear also that
the state of New York could not be
brought to vote for any candidate be-
lieved to lean toward free coinage. Now
the legitimate conclusion from all this
information and these predictionsi s that
the Democrats cannot win in any way.
The tariff reformers calculate upon
throwing the election into the House.
True, they reason. Alliance tickets may
carry some Southern states, and thus
prevent any election of President by
the people, but the choice would then
have to be made by the present Demo-
present Democratic candidate. Would
it? Did the Democratic caucus nomi-
nate Mr.. Cleveland's candidate for
Speaker? Did the majority of Demo-
Gratis IN the House vote as Mr.. Cleve-
land desired on the silver bill: What
would happen if the Democrats from
silver states should vote for the Alli-
ance candidate for President? And
what would happen if the Alliance
tickets i'll half a dozen states ordinarily
Democratic should give the electoral
votes of those states to the Republican
candidate !-NsW York Tribune.

Sun: A Portland physician and a Bath
~theologian we're in the Bowdoin medi-
cal school recently, examining micro.
scopic slides of peculiar glands. The
physician began a scientific discussion,
and the clergyman, becoming wearied
of the subject, exclaimed: "You doc

ties of this world that I should think
you would not want to live !" Where
upon the physician retorted: :You

uncertainties Of the next world that we
