THE PRICE OF CALrcoEs.
Figures That Are Truthful as Wen of In
JerestiDg.

There are great many interesting ex
ampes In the market OF to-day lIlustrat-
ing the falsity of the democratic 81 te-
ment. that the tariff is a tax on the ordi
nary supplies of the family. If one Will
take The pains to examine the advertise.
meLts of the city or the country papers he
will discover that the prices of many
articles are as low, if not lower, than the
tariff itself For example there Is a duty
OF two cents on wire nails and yet the
nails sell in the market for little les
than two cents a pound. Printing cloth
brown cotton cloth, which when printed
becomes caicoes have been selling for
several months at 215 to 2 1916 cents a
yard while the duty on The same grade OF
goods is three cents a yard.
If we turn to the common Callcoes, used
in every family more or less, and especial
~ in the families on the farms or in the
working districts of cities, we will find a
striking example of how utterly devoid OF
truth the tariff tax is Illustrating this
statement, we give below a list Of some of
tie cheap brands OF prints showing the
present prices in the open market, and IN
another column the prices IL $780, and 1t
must he remembered that the tariff tax

AT TEE CHURCHES
synopsis OF the Sermon Pfeached by Rev.
WIlIfap1 Po,yick,


The sermon On Sunday evening in the
Methodist Episcopal church was from
Psalm VIII, verses ! and 2; 10 Lord our
L ,rd. how excellent is Thy name in all the
earth; who hast set Thy glory above the
heavens; out OF the mouth of babes and
sucklings hast Thou ordained strength be-
cause of Thy enemies, that Thou nigh est
still the or emy and the svenger."' The
fame of God has spread over the whole
earth in consequ nee of His wonder
working power. The plaques in Egypt
had become known and had filed His foes
with tear. "Woe un.o us, (cried the
Phihstiue-) who shall deliver us out of the
ha I'd of these mighty gods that smote the
Egyptians with all the plagaes in the will
derness." The kingdom of David and
solomon was the mightiest one of their
time ard this had contributed to the fame
of their God But as though the earth
was too small theatre for the exhibition
of his perfections he 'sels His glory above
the heavt Ms ~ The starry hosts become
the eloquent exponents OF his glory. The
heavens declare the glory of God and the
armame1 showeth His handiwork." But
most wonderful of all is the humble in
s.rumentalities such great God employs
in carrying on His work "Out of the
mouths of babes and sucklngs hast Thou
ordained strength" None but God could
have thought OF saving the world by the
mediate, of Christ Reversing human
methods He appeared in stable-was
Graded in a manger-was announced to
hepherds-associated with the lowly-.
worked at tradei with power to turn
stones into bread and timber into mansions;
He went hungry and houselcs-i instead OF
choosing the great and mighty and noble
to be His disciples and successors he chose
the fishermen OF Gallile and the hated tax
galherers of the stom house; instead of
armies He selected preachers and instead. Of
swords He depended on truth and instead
of force He employed love. The reason
given is the malignacy Of His foes, "that
thou mightest still the enemy and the
avenger." The preaching of the cross Is
to them that perish foolishness ami for this
very reason it is often tolerated where
more pretentlous methods would not Ihe
insignifcance of gospel methods has often
thrown the foes of God of their, guard and
secured chance for the introduction of
gospel lesven which has diffused itself
unit the whole lump was leavened. We
read in classic story that after an unsuc-
cessful siege OF Troy the Greeks resolved
upon u strategem hat proved its downfall
they presented their foes with a wooden
horse which was accepted because of its
apparent harmlessness-but when it got
within the city the army which had been
lodged within it delivered the city into
their hands. So some of the simplest
instrumentalites are made The vehicle tf
salvation. Let Us not despise the agencies
within our reach while seeking for better
ones. God has. chosen babes and suck
lings" so that all may share the honors OF
fHal victory"

A MYSTERY SOLVED.
How Cattle Disappeared From
Mission Road.
Hugh 0'Niel and P. Marlarkey Found Butch
ering the Mich Cows of Neighbor-
ing Dairymen.

For more than six months past the resi-
dents along the Mission road, especially the
dairymen, have complained to the police
that fat mich cows were constantly stolen
out Of their corrals and disappeared they
knew not where.
Not alone did the well-to-do dairymen
suffer, but poor widows, whose cows fur
nished the greater part of their income,
complained OF the loss of their stock, and
finally District Detective Byrnes was de-
tailed on the case with instructions to To-
cate the thieves and bring them to justice.
For a week and more Byrnes rode and
drove over the district. but all to no pur-
pose SO far as he could ascertain everyone
living in or about the neighborhood suffer-
ing from the depredations were hon est,
Woodworking people.
The detective reached the conclusion that
the stolen cattle were never butchered In the
slaughter-houses Of this city, If butchered
at all, and began an investigation for hid
den slaughter-hOuse beyond the bounds OF
the limits prescribed.
He found it. 1t was on the San Bruno
road, about 300 yards from the county line.
The place was an old soap factory and
about ii at low tide was more than sufficient
evidence of violation Of the law regarding
the Strengthening of cattle, ii nothing else.
watch was kept upon the place and on
Wednesday night Policemen Heaphey and
King, who were assisting Byrnes, saw the
men drag nilch cow into the old soap
factory, and then drive another animal into
o corral near it.
When the men were Strengthening the cow,
the officers broke into the place and arrested
them. They were brought to the City
Prison, where they gave the names of Hugh
0'Neil and Z. Malarkey.
A charge of Strengthening cattle inside
the prescribed limits was placed against the
men to hold them, and later charge of
grand larceny was filed.
During yesterday both the animals In the
hands OF the two men named were identi-
fed by neghbOring dairymen and, it is
claimed, certain case has been made out
against them as the thieves who have stolen
at least fifty head of fine cattle

10 JOS MANAGER
Sues the Union Pacific Railroad for
Heavy Damages.

Sues the Union Pacific Railroad for
Heavy Damages.
Benjamin JessarDtski commenced suit In
the United States Circuit Court yesterday
against the Union Pacific Railroad Company
for $4,000 damages. Benjamin Is Rus
sian, and also a man of business. On Au-
gust 81. 1891. he was in the employ of Me-
Oas Foster as a manager of 10 10, the dog
faced boy; Unzie, the Albino with the
flowing locks. and the freaks which consti-
tuted a side show to McMahon's circus.
On the above date the outfit were travelling
through Colorado, and plaintiff alleges that
he undertook to accompany it from Den
yer TO Georgetown over the Denver Cen
trail Railroad, line owned by the Union
Pacific Company. When nearing Idaho
Springs en- route to Georgetown, the ele-
plant car and the sleeper in which Benja-
min and his freaks reposed were thrown
from the track and wrecked. The plain
tiff's right leg was broken and his spine in
jured. Internal injuries and financial loss
were also caused him by the wreck, which
il is alleged was due to the insecure con-
dition of the rails and of the foundation Of
the rOadbed. So apparent was the danger,
says the complainant, that Mcmahon, the
owner of the circus, solicited the conductor
TO go very slow, but the latter replied
that he knew his business and forthwith
permitted the train TO move along at an ex-
cessive and dangerous rate OF speed.
