BREAKFAST

The remarkable birds OF Manitoba
are described in the new volume OF the
Proceedings OF the United States Ma
tional Museum" In the spring season
OF the. year thousands OF prairie larks
there salute the day by bursting all
together into a splendid explosion OF
song, pouring out their rich, strong
voices, from every little height and
perch, singing with all their might.
They sing all day, and at night joyously
hail the moon.
A majority OF the experts in Europe
seem to DO agreed that line-of-battle
ships arc likely to play a more impor-
tant part in the next naval wal than
cruisers. The latter class OF vessels are
BEGINNING to be regarded chiefly rs
nuxiliaries to tho first fighting limo, al
though their usefulness in many ways
is by no NEAR overlooked.
The marriages Of 1886 persons were
solcmnized in London during 1881, the
proportion to the population being
higher than in any year since 1883.
Tho births numbered 134,003, or BIS
per 1000, the lowest on record, with tho
exceptions Of the year 1890. The ex-
cess OF births over deaths, however,
was iS,7S7.

STORMS SET DOWN FOR MAY.

Tiie.St. Louis Weather Prophe, Predicts
u Lively Tempo ,tuous Period.
ST. LOUIS, May 1.-Rev. Irl R. Hicks,
the St. Louis weather prophet. thus
predicts May weather: Cool, clear
weather will advance from west to east:
ern part OF our continent during the
first days of May. By the Sd a warm
wave will appear in the west, attended
by low barometer aud storm develop
ments OF marked intensity. Within
forty-eight hours OF 6 p. M, on tho 4th
tho center Of the period-storms of
marked c%yclonic possibilities, attended
by hail, rain and thunder, will visit
most parts Of the country. AS far rs
may be practicable, preparations against
heavy hailstorms should be made at
this, as we'll as all the storm
periods of tho month. Be pre-
pared for phenomenal Arrears of cold
and hot in close proximity to each
other, with sudden and extreme drops
Of temperature. Frosts are almost sure
to follow in the rear Of storms about the
night Of the 4th or 9Th, in the North
and West, reaching the eastern sections
a day or two later. Watch and see.
Centering on the 10th and 18th, reac-
tionary conditions OF temperature and
barometric pressure ending in storms,
may be counted on. Keep a cautious
eye on all storm clouds about these
dates, and do not be u%nprepared for
frost in many northern and central sec.
tions on the nights Immediately follow,
ing the storms. iEi
\ The next storm period is central on
the 10th, bringing its eliminating
stages, especially in eastern parts OF the
country, exactly on the lSth-the. cons
trail day of a Venus disturbance Re-,
member that Venus brings rapid and,
extreme alterations of lightning and
thunder. Be on the watch for. such re-
suits at this time. The period rum
from the 18th, TO 10Th. a. series OF heavy
storms, recurring in cycles of 81 hours
say each afternoon and evening-will
most likely result for several days
about this time. Tho wind falling Dbl
stinately back to tho south after the
passage of storm paroxysms, will be
good evidence that the storm will
repeat itself about OF q little in ad-
vance OF the same hour on the sue
ceeding day. A cold, steady wind from
west and north will indicate tho cessa-
ton OF tho storms. Heavy irosts will
BIO heard from to the northward be-
tween the 10th and 2lst. On and about
the 22nd look for q return OF very warm
days, with reactionary storms greatly
intensified by tho Venus equinox. The
last storm. period for tho month is from
tho 25th to tho 3Oth-a period calling
for constant carefulness. in the event of
hot days, south winds and the forma-.
ton of active storm clouds. On the
25th falls the new moon, equinox Of
Mercury on the 18th, Venus still in
force-all combine with a regular "vul-,
can" period, central on the 9th. Put
ting all these causes together and add.
ing the fact that VIC are fully within tho
Saturnian period, we may almost surely
expect disturbances OF great violence.

American Tin Plate.

Special Agent Aver, who was selected
to receive and prepare the records of
tin plate manufacture in this country
under the Mckinley tariff, has made
public what information he has gained,
and it is a damper on the tin plate
ialsiGers among the free traders, who
have been asserting that no tin plate
has been or can be made in tho United
States.
Mr.. Aver presents the sworn reports
OF the manufacturers which arc COM
piled to furnish tho statistics necessary
to show that the provisions OF the law
will be complied with. These reports
show that "the production in nine
months ending with March had been OF
bright tin plate lighter than So pounds
per 100 square feet l,s35,06S pounds,
and of terne plates OF the same limit rs
to weight S,l92, l62 pounds, making
4,527,223O pounds within tho provisions
OF tho law requiring a production equal
to a third Of the consumption within.
Elk years"
Mr.Ayer,in his report, says that no
has nodoubt that the provision OF the
law referred to will be met by Ameri-
can tin plato men. The language Of
the net is as follows: .
Provided that on aud after October !. 1897, tin

satisfaction Of tho President (who shall tie,c.
upon BY proclamation make known tho fact
thnt the aggregate quantity OF such platos lighter

next preceding June ~. 1857, has cqualed one.
third the amount OF such plates imported and
entered for consumption during any fiscal ycar
after the passage OF this act and prior 10 said Oc-
tober !. 1877: Provided that tho amour. OF such
plates manufactured into a~rticlca exported, and
upon which ~adrawback shall DO paid, shall not
be included In ascertaining. the amount OF such
amount or weight OF shect-iron or shectsteel
manufactured in the United States and applied
or wrought In the innnuinctnrc OF articlcs or
wares, timed OF ternc plated in the United
States, w~ith\weight allowance as sold to manu-.
~fNcturers or others. shall DO considered rs tin
md tcrne plates produced In the United States
within the meaning OF this act.
Mr.. Aver bases his belief that this
proviso will DO met on the fact that
there has been a very rapid increase in
tho output. Five manufacturers report
1,22SS,Sso pounds tho second quarter,
and nineteen manufacturers report q
72l, 429 pounds the third quarter after
the law went into effect. He reports
that there arc now in actual operation
twcnty,six factories, and sixteen addi-
tional factories are building and will BIO
in operation early in tho coming fiscal
year. Tho capacity Of all these works,
he says, will be 100000 pounds weekly
or nearly 100000 900 pounds for tho next
fiscal year. 1t would require n produc-
tion Of only 5o,Ooo,ooo during the next

That was q happy hit Of Governor
McKinley's whom no said "tho tariff is
doing Its own talking" 1t is. in truth,
and 1t ia IN eloquent speech it is max.
ing to tho American people. 1t is say
ing, for instance, to tho poor man: ~
have made it possible for you to get
twenty pounds Of sugar for a dollar.
You used to pay eighteen conts a pound
for it."
1t says to the farmer and the working
man, you are getting your wire nails
at less than tho tariff is on them" 1t
is saying to thom, "You can buy Ameri-
can made carpets as cheap rs you can
buy English carpets in England. You
can buy all.wool clothing as cheap and,
in many instances cheaper, than YOU
ever could before, while the free trader
told you you would have to pay more
for these things. Your wife pays less
than she did before for hor dress, and
tho free trader told you shc would have
to pay more. Nothing you buy which
is the product OF American labor have
l made dearor, but in many cases have
l made the necessities OF life cheaper"
And the tariff is able to say more. 1t
a say, "Look over this broad land and
sec on every hand now industries
%springing up. SEQ your mines being
opened and railroads being built into
new territory, and the vast natural re.
sources Of the country being developed,
and the free traders told you that the
McKialey bill would bring you hard
times and stop the march Of progress"
Yes, after eighteen months the tariff
is doing its own talking, and the people
are paying attention. They will not be.
deceived again;by Democratic theories,
for the tariff facts are staring them in
the face. Il ;3la :

law.
Thus Il will be seen that in spite Of
all the Democratic predictions and the
assertions which tho Democratic press
and politicians continue to make, this
new American industry, due to tho Nc
Kinlcy bill, Is gaining q foothold and
will triumph oyer FREQ trade theories.
1t has come to stay and before many
years America will be producing all her
