Of the committee, has been given to the public.
Ne such wide and careful inquiry has ever be-
fore been made. These facts appear from the
report:
First-The cost Of articles entering into the
use Of those earnings less than 81 900 per anDum
has decreased up to May, 1892. "a per cent,
while in farm products there has been an increase
in prices, owing in part to an increased foreign
demand and the opening OF new markets. In
England during the same period the cost of
living increased 10 per cent. Tested by their
power to purchase articles of necessity. the
ings Of our working people have never been as
great as they are now.
Second-There has been an average advance
In the rate Of wages Of 10 Of per cent
Third-There has been an advance in the price
Of all farm products Of 1857 per cent, and Of
all cereals 1888 per cent.
The Hinth annual report Of the Chief of the
Bureau Of Labor Statistics Of the State Of New
York, Democratic officer. very recently issued,
strongly corroborates rs 70 that State, the facts
found by the Senate committee. lis extended
inquiry shows that in the year Immediately fol-
lowing the passage OF the Tarir act Of 1890
Tie aggregate sum paid in wages in. that State
Was $6,377,925 in excess, and the aggregate
pfoduction 1871 ,3l5,lS0 in excess Of the preced-
Ing year.
In view of this showing Of an increase in
wages, Of a reduction in tho cost Of articles of
common necessity, aud Of a marked advance in
the prices Of agricultural products, it is plain
that this Tariff law has not Imposed burdens, but
has conferred benefits upon the farmer and the
workingman.
THE TIN-rLATE QUESTION.
Some special effects Of the act should be noticed.

Remarkable Coon Hunting With Roman
Candles.


Remarkable Coon Hunting With Roman
Candles.
The inhabitants Of the mountains west of
this place. says the Gettysburg Sentinel,
are great coon-hunters. Some nights ago
Bill Benchoff and Colonel Yngline started
out with half dozen dogs and two boys to
carry the pine torches coon was raised
on the east side OF the Monterey and the
dogs chased it down through a deep and
rough ravine and up rocky spur on the
west. After a climb of an hour Benchoff
and YinglinG at last came up with the dogs
They had run the coon into a tree and were
suarling and barking around underneath.
The boys whirled the torches and Benchotf
banged away at what he supposed was the
coon, but no animal tumbled.
Yingling in the meantime had been tear
ing paper and trying to ignite match, but
it was damp and would only splutter. Ben
choif was deriding him, when suddenly
great ball of fire illuminated space. Ying-
ling had succeeded in lighting his match
and was emptying Roman candle into the
tree.
The first ball struck branch and burst,
and the second hit the coon plump center"
Its fur caught fire, and, with yell of agony
and fright, it came rolling down among the
angry dogs. The third ball revealed two
more cO0uS in the tree, and BenchoIf's ready
rifle dropped one, while Yingling, with the
last ball in the candle, hit the limb on
which the third coon chung in pitiful terror,
and it lost its hold and tumbled into the
mouths Of the waiting dogs.
They got six more co0ns that night with
the belD of Gingting's candles, aud now the
Colonel regularly shoots the Romans and
Benchotf shoots the gun They are the most
successful coon-hunters IN all the region.

Heroic Act of a Doctor Now Residing in
St Louis.
About thirty years ago a half-dozen young
American students were ON their way to
different parts of Europe to finish their liter
airy education. They had reached New York
harb0r and were on board Of the ship. The
vessel by this time was pretty we'll crowded
and the deck was one mass of human beings.
The day was a windy one, with haeting
clouds passing swiftly overhead. The pas
sengers were still coming aboard on the now
almost oveTcrowded ship. All on board
were laughing and chatting and enjoying
the stiff sea breeze. All at once there fell
upon the ears Of the passengers the alarming
cry, "a baby overheard" All eyes were
now at the ships edge, peerlng into the sea
10 catch a glimpse of the baby overheard.
\ womau's scream had been also heard,
loud and ShTill, over the noise and din made
by the passengers. She WAS seen wiring
ing her hands, crying and running frantic
to and fro, appealing to the crOwd-"Will
no one rescue my baby?' The passengers
were SpelbOund. No one seemed 10 move.
One looked at the other. Several made
motions, as though they would take the
risk-but their hearts failed them when
they looked at the angry sea, so menacing.
The students could stand it no longer. One
asked the other, which of las is the best
swimmer. But quicker than can be told
one Of them had partly disrobed himself
and jumped into the midst of the waves.
The infant by this time had been car
ried some distance off, and quicker than
a boat could be rowed did that student
swim. An eyes were riYeted on the
infant and its pursuer. The hearts of the
passengers, but especially the mothers. I'M
duIated between hope and despair. Now
the child could be seen. now not. Still the
student, in spite of the waves, kept on.
The hearts Of the multitude could almostb
heard beating Cheer after cheer went up
when the infant and its pursuer could be
seen, Finally the udent was seen to make
one grand effort, and reached the iufant.
which was now almost dead with the cold. He
held it out of the cold water with one hand
while he swan with the other. A friendly
boat soon hove in sight The little thing was
wrapped IN something warm, and was soon
restored to the arms Of its grateful mother.
The passengers could have carried the stu
dent on their shoulders, but he FASTENED TO
his room, put OH dry clothing, lighted
cigar, came on deck again. and looked as
though lie had done nothing Of the kind.
That student was our DR.. j. l., FltzpOrter.

he could cure without fail certain diseases
which are deemed by other medical men as
ineurable, and agreed to forfeit $1,000 If he
did not fulfill his agreement 30 cure. For
this offense he was arraigned before the
board, and it was decided that his license
be revoked

Billiards is a mathematical game and aF-
fords scope and exercise for those faculties
which discipline and strengthen the mind.
A steady hand, clear head, quick precep-
ton and a pleasant exercise of the calcuat-
ing powers are the requisites for an accom-
plished billiard player. The practical de
velopment of these qualities must naturally
be productive of good results.
Liquor. in its effects. prevents in a measure
the employment Of the above enumerated
requirements.
Billiards is an innocent and healthful rec
