COMING TO AMERICA.

Tho Lace Making Trade Ruined In Eng
land-The Tariff Blamed for It-How
This County VIII Be Benefited by the
Depression Over the Water.
SCRANTON, Sept, 30-Superintendent
Mosley, OF the Scranton Lace Curtain Man
ufscturing Company, has just returned from
England, where he went to secure skilled
labor for his works He says he had no
trouble In securing all the help he desired,
and almost every lace maker in Nottingham
is anxious to come here.
'The Mckinley bill has worked sad
havoc to English industries" said Mr..
Mosley. Everywhere I went found ma
chinery lying idle, men out of work, and
industries fairly paralyzed. There is hardly
a branch of industry that has not suffered,

Satire, which is virtually owned by Sir
Titus Salt, whose cloth and plush manufac-

was asked
ut is as bad there as anywhere, es-
pecially in the lace making industries
The factories had big orders in anticipation
of the Mckinley bill, and now having the
markets stocked they have nothing to do.
When the time arrives for jobbers to again
make purchases the industry will have so
matured in this country that the, American
factories will be able to supply the demand
here, and as the English factories cannot
now compete with those of this country,
their largest market will be closed to
them"
s'Do you think the Mckinley bill has
worked q corresponding amount Of good in
this country?"
''From observations which have made
can assuredly say it has, and In my own line
of business can emphatically testify that
nothing but such a protective tariff as is
provided BY the Mckinley bill would make

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-[Special. &c.
L. Magee, of Pittsburg, arrived here this
evening and went at once to the White
House for a consultation with President
Harrison. Mr. Magee has been for several
weeks past engaged in missionary works in
Alabama, Georgia and other Southern
States in the interest of the Republican
Alliance opposition to the straighout De-
mocracy. 1t is understood that Mr.. Magee
will give the President detailed account
of what he and the other Republicans have
accomplished in the South in the way of
disrupting the Democratic organization.
It is significant that p. T. Bowman, the
young and very clever manager of the Kolb
wing of the Alabama Democracy, also ar
rived here to-day, and has already been in
consultation with Magee. President Har-
rison has been assured from every source
that the Republicans have an excellent
opportunity to carry Alabama and Tennes-
see this year, and, according to the state
ment of friend of the administration, Mr..
Harrison has been persuaded into believing
these rainbow reports.

Uncertainty That fs Inspiring and Gives
Zest to Our Labor.
A western writer advances the pc
culiar theory that. unlike the seed of
the apple, the nut will produce : tree
that will yield nuts like the one from
which it sprang Planting nut is
only another way of transplanting.
etc The apple having been longer
under cultivation than any of our ma
tive nut trees, there is likely to be a
greater or wider departure from the
original type; but whoever found any
two trees of hickory bearing exactly
the same size, form and quality OF
of puts And this accounts for the re-
markable variations OF the mixture
seen in any large lot Of nuts in the
market II is one of the rules of nature
never to produce two things alike, and
upon this variableness all progress, or
what we call Improvement is founded
II we select the largest and thinnest
shelled hickorynuts, pecans, wainuts
or chestnuts, and plant them, our
chances are better or greater for pro-
ducing q choice variety than If we pun
sue the opposite course; but there is no
certainty that all or any great part of
the seedlings will produce nuts equal
to those planted
For instance: The papershell hickory
is probably one of the largest and best
varieties of the shellbark hickory yet
discovered in this country, but the
chances are that not more than one
Seeding in hundred received from the
nuts will be superior or equal to those
of the parent tree. Only one Seeding
of this most remarkable nut has as vet
come into bearing, and the product is
far inferior to any of the hickorynuts
found common in our forests. The un-
certainty of obtaining as good or val
uab.e varieties as those from which the
seed was gathered in nut or fruit trees
should not however, discourage. but.
rather, stimulate to greater exertion
in that direction. for If every experiment
were certain to end in a great advance
we would soon reach the limit and lose
interest in such operations IL is the
uncertainty and the slow progress we
are permitted 20 make under the most
favorable conditions that give zest to

return from the building without the

Every minute seemed an age after
Jim disappeared from sight in the

did nothing but walk back and forth
wringing her hands and sobbing out:
"Oh, Williel Williei Oh, ! know he

increased to mighty roar as the form
of River Jim" was seen at an upper
window, grasping something in his
arms For only an instant was he Wis
ible, and as he disappeared from sight
groan went up from the vast crowd
This was changed to a glad cry as
Jim was seen, through the smoke, to
stagger out of the door still tightly
grasping what proved TO be the inani-
mate form of Willie Franklin, with a
blanket wrapped around him. AS Jim
staggered out OF the burning building,
willing hands caught the boys form
and rushed to place free from smoke.
when il was found that he was unin-
jured, except from inhaling smoke, and
was soon resucitatcd.
When the boy was taken from Jim's
arms, the fellow was seen to stagger.
and those gathered around noted the
change in the man. His long hair and
whiskHrs were burUrd rluse to his head
