A woman,s strange Bequest.

A very aged Lady, Mime. Guzman, who
died on the 30th of June last in Pau,
was deeply interested, especially during
her last years, in the descriptions Of the
planet Mars and the theoretical posi-
bility of communication between our
planet and the neighbor worlds. Further
more, expressing in her will desire
peculiarly astronomical, she made the
following legacy:
A prize of 100, 900 francs is bequeathed
to the Institute of France (science sec
tion) for the person, no matter of what
nationality, who shall discover within
ten years from the present time means
of communicating with star (planet OF
otherwise) and of receiving reply.
The teststrix has especially IN view
the planet Mars, upon which the atten-
ton and investigation of savants has
been directed already. If the Institute
of France does not accept the legacy il
will pass to the Institute of Milan, and
in case of new refusal to the Institute
of New York.-Cor. New York Herald

A Striking Jury.

Without doubt the most unique strike
on record was that which interrupted
the trial Of the Jones versus Gordon debt
case at Burlington, la. The jury had
arrived at verdict but refused to re-
port till paid their fees. The plaintiff,
who had demanded the jury, was anx-
ious to learn the verdict and paid the
fees. Much to his chagrin the verdict
was against him. - Cor. New York

Not So Funny After All.

A supposed practical joker went into
the Staten Island ferry slip on Saturday,
and exhibiting black bag declared it
contained dynamite and that he intend
ed to blow up the building. Everybody
made break for the door except po-
liceDlan in citizens clothes, who knocked
the man down and captured the bag,
which was found to contain nothing
dangerous. The practical joker had his
jaw broken by the policeman's blow

Asbestus Three Thousand Years Old.

Asbestus differs from nearly all other
minerals in being fibrous and textile,
dividing into fibers resembling in deli
cacy those of fax and silk, and can be
spun and woven like any other textile
fiber, giving yarn or cloth entirely
fireproof and acidproof. Although
known in Egypt and elsewhere 5000
years ago, the practical use of this ma
terial in considerable quantities has been
delayed to the present age.-India Rub

IF THERE WERE NoTARIFF TAX

If the American consumer
doesn't pay the American tariff
tax, then the imported goods that
are purchased by American con-
eumers must be cold to them at the
same prices they would pay It
there scere no tariff tao! There is
no possible escape from this cons
clusion. What then becomes of
the claim that the tariff protects
American industry2
1t costs in the neighborhood of
six hundred million dollars-the
great bulk Of which is collected in
duties upon imports-to pay the
expenses of our Government each
year. 1t is scarcely short of absc-
lutte idiocy to believe that this vast
sum is paid b foreigners int our
treasury for the privilege of selling
us their products at pauper prices !
The claim is preposterous. Foreign
ers are not fools nor slaves that
they should be thus laid nnder
tribute, nor are Americans either
pirates or paupers that they should
demand, or even consent to an in.
Justice 90 1agraut.
How much nobler it would be
in the Republican party to defend
it's policy from the standpoint of
truth and honor, than from that of
falsehood and deceit? All intelli-
gent people know that American
consumers ray the tariff tax both
for revenue and protection; and
they know, furthermore that farm.
era are not protected by the tariff,
nor high wages assured by it even
in the protected industries.
Finally. if the foreigner pays the
tariff tax, why do the alleged
beneficiaries of protective legisla
ton pay their money to procure 1t,
and to perpetu ate the power of the
party whose policy it is to infict
evch legislation upon the countrys

a statement of Mr.. j S. Jones,
Manager for the department Of

of 1890. The strength of the COM
pany as evidence in ratio of assets
to liabilities lie 1851 II to each 500
which is the best showing Of any

GRESHAM FOR CLEVELAND.
The Great Jurist Takes Stand With
Democracy.

Judge Walter Qninten Gresham,
the eminent jur.st and statesman
and the man who, for eight years, has
doomed up as formidable president
ial nominee on the Republican ticket,
will, in November next east his vote
for Grover Cleveland for president of
the United States.
The announcement of this intention
on the part of the distinguished Re-
publican jurist was made Saturday
morning upon authority that cannot
be disputed. The information was
brought to Chicago by gentlemen who
came from Springfield, and confirmed
there by Democrats of high standing,
who had been in some way acquaint-
ed with the fact.
Judge Allen, of the United States
district court at Springfield, ILL.,, first
made the announcement Juge Gresh-
am has been in the Illinois State capt.
tai sitting with Judge Allen for sew
eral days. The other day, while con-
versing with Judge Allen on politics,
Judge Gresham told him that he
should vote the Democratic
electoral ticket this fall. Judge
Gresham did not speak confidentially,
but told Judge Allen that he was at
liberty to repeat the statement if he
cared to do SO. Judge Allen did re-
peat it to friends in Springfield, and
Saturday morning the significant de-
termination Of Judge Gresham had
come into Chicago. This is the ac-
count of the Springfield men who
were at the Democratic State head
quarters to-day gave of Judge Ores
hams open attitude.
