The ParsOn Was No Thief.

From the CHICAGO Times
minister well known in one of the suburbs
Of Chicago recently had an amusing thoufl
| annoying experience.
The reverend gentleman owns and drives q
tne-looking horse. Not Icing ago he took {
drive into the city. 1t being dusty day he
wore an old oyercoat and rather seedy hat
| which gave him an unministerial and decided,
trampilke appearance. The. horse, however
was well groomed, sleek and handsome Ar.
irving in the city he put the horse up at a
livery stable while he went on bis way to attend
to duties elsewhere. He noticed as he drove
into the stable that the host.ers eyed him
closely and looked the animal over rather
infinitely, but he thought nothing of it and
went on his way. In an hour or two he re-
turned and ordered his horse. ne jumped
into the buggy, seized the reins and was about
to drive out when policeman stepped up
grabbed the horse by the bits and forbade the
driver to proceed any further. detective in
citizens clothes was with the policeman and he
addressed the minister.
Whose horse is that?"
my own"
How long have you had it2''
Eight months
''Well, we have a description Of a stolen
horse that corresponds exactly with this We
have telephoned to the owner and you can't &c
till he comes"
"Why!'' exclaimed the minister, his heart
rising to his throat, why, you don't take me
for q horse thief, hope? This horse is mine,
SIR"
II am sorry to detain you, sir, but you can
not Co."

"Oh. we've had that game worked before, -
replied the detective, as he looked significantly
at the old clothes Of his prisoner. .'iou drive

shes a good horse. but say, honestly, ism,
this joker
"No joke at all, sir. Keep quiet and wait till
tia owner comes.''
Take me two blocks down the street and l
Will identify myself" pleaded the minister.
No; that is not necessary. This is too clear
a case. We have description of horse stolen
yesterday-a bay mare, two white feet, weight
LOO pounds scar behind the left shoulder.
light buggy with two robes, one white and
one black. Now. look at your horse and buggy
robes; the description tallies exactly. Look at
this scar behind the left shoulder"
Sure enough the minister's horse was per-
fectly described. He bad nothing to do but sit
still and wait. After two long hours wore away
the man whose horse had been stolen appeared
on the scene.
That is not my horse, gentlemen" he said.
'Besldes, did not ray scar il my telephone
message, but 'wart.' This horse has no wart 4"

Congressman Jalins q. BURROWS. O
this State. In bis address on 'Recl
procify' before the Merchants Associ
alton Of Boston. on Tuesday evenin,
Of 'nNt week, (Mr Burrows represent
ed Secretary Blaine on the occasion
referred to) gave a masterly and lucid
Interpretation of the subject. In clos
ing he referred to the Democratic
claim OF similarity of the two doc
frines In the following language:
II have heard IL urged Ia some
quarters, more vehemence than
knowledge, that this doctrine of reci.
procity, as declared and applied was
an abandonment Of the policy of pro-
lection and an acceptance of the
tenets of free trade. Nothing could
be more preposterous. There Is not
the remotest suggestion of free trade
In It. 1t is fair trade. not free trade.
We admit free of duty into the Amer
lean market the things we do not and
cannot produce, like tea and coffee,
or things which, like sugar, cannot be
produced In sufficient quantities to
supply the whole, and in return there
for, secured reciprocal advantages In
the markets of the countries supply
ing these articles.
Reciprocity strikes down no Ameri-
can industry, cripples no American
enterprise. Reciprocity antagonistic
to protection! Protection guards the
home market; reciprocity reaches out
to foreign markets. Protection estab-
fishes, builds up and maintains Amer-
lean industries; reciprocity opens
new outlet for the surplus products
OF our farms and factories. Protec-
ton gives employment to American
labor; reciprocity enlarges the de-
mand for the fruits of that labor.
thereby insuring uninterrupted en-
ploynent. In word. protection is
defense. reciprocity is conquest.
There is, therefore, no abandon
ment of the doctrine of protection,
but rather On increased demand for
its maintainance. under the policy of
protection and reciprocity, coupled
with that other policy now happily
inaugurated of building up our iner-
chant marine and establishing swift
and certain mail communications with
the South American republics, there
will be open to US a new market for
the surplus productions of our farms
and factories, we shall relight the
seas of the globe with the stars of |
our flag. and the American Repub-
ic will hold its place in the van of |
empire.
