II is u pity that p. T. Barnum can
not see the performances Of the Great
est Show on Earth this year, for he
would be prouder than ever of the ex-
hibition. Some Of the riding and
aerial acts selected from the best in
Europe, are Of such novel kind that
could Mr.. Barnum view them he would
be as greatly pleased as the big audi
ence. Mr.. j. A. Baily has organized
the show this year upon even better
and grander scale during any of the
vast years of his management, and Sc
cured features not only highly merit
orlous, but novel and exciting.

POORER Goods and Higher Prices.

Mr.. Whiting, congressman from
Michigan and one of the members of the
committee of ways and means of the
house of representatives, has an interest
in large mercantile firm in st. Clair,
Mich. Being in the business he ought
to know what effect the Mckinley tariff
has had upon prices. When he was
asked, ON his return to Washington
from New York. where he had been
buying goods, what effect the high duties
have had upon prices, he said:
The importers of New York are pro-
testing with one voice against policy of
the custom house. which is now to exact
the highest possible rates of duty and to
treat all importers as dishonest and guilty
of naturalization. have no doubt that
the moving cause is the fact that money
is needed TO I'll an empty treasury. but
the people must pay the bills. The high
tariff now being collected encourages
American manufacturers to support the

Republican ticket with large conUrluu-
tons, and have no doubt the admins
tration knows what it is about.
The claim that goods have not been
made higher by the Mckinley law l am
able to deny with emphasis after a
practical experience of several days in
purchasing all classes of importations,
as well as home goods. In many cases
the quality of goods is degraded in or
der not to show increased cost. In other
cases expensive goods are dropped from
the counters of the wholesale houses.
and cheaper articles are substituted and
introduced as ''change of style" 1t is
but a poor subterfuge to make the poor
consumer think he is paying no more for
the same articles he purchased year
ago. | do not think any buyer is de-
ceived.

HOW 1T ENDED.
The Modern Courtship of Caleb Binkley
and Maria sutton.

The Modern Courtship of Caleb Binkley
and Maria sutton.
For fifty years Caleb Binkley and
Marie Sutton had lived neighbors in a
, double house OF pleasant street of a
little old New England village. They
had grown up together there, and they
had seen all the members of their fami-
lies carried to the graveyard ON the hill,
leaving them alone in their houses.
For twenty years they had lived thus,
, and their days went by peacefully and
, happily.
One morning in May, Caleb was in
the garden back of his house, prodding
! away with his hoe, and Maria was in
hers fixing flower bed.
Its fine morning, Maria" called
Caleb across the fence.
Beautiful" said Maria.
Seems ez eff the sun was shining Jest
! for our benefit, don't it, remarked Ca
leb, dragging tangled weed from his
hoe handle.
Yes, Caleb, guess it shines down
on my side about like it does on yours. u
Caleb looked up at the blue sky for a
! moment and then walked over to the
fence.
Il say, Maria" he said, 1--WE been
! thinkin about takin down this fence.
Your pa and mine put it up here forty
year ago, but 'twan't never much use
| What do you say to takin it DOWN.
Might ez we'll ez not, l guess, Caleb,
assented Maria, without changing her
! position.
! a minute or two later Caleb, with an
Ak in his hand, was back again.
Maria" he said, Il guess eff a thing
hez got to be done it might ez we'll be
done right off, hadn't it,
81 guess it might, Caleb"
Maria went on with her digging, while
Caleb hewed and chopped at the wooden
Fence, and at last the work was done.
It'll make good firewood, Maria, he
said, as he surveyed the wreck, and if
you'll tell me where you want your half
put I'll pile it up for You handy"
1T looks summat strange not to see q
dividin line between us, don't it, Caleb?'
she remarked as she stood up and looked
across both gardens.
81 was noticin that myself Maria, = he
said quietly.
"'Twan't no use" was it, she in.
quired, doubtfully gazing at the fence
prone on the earth.
Never was" he answered. Then he
came nearer. Amt much more use in
two people Twin in two houses either, is
there, Maria?' he said.
None that l can see, Caleb" she re-
sponded, with faint glow of color in
her cheeks and neck.
Caleb seemed to be trying to swallow
something that would not go down. He
attempted to speak and failed, and then
he tried to go to her and that was an
ignominious failure also. At last he
made successful effort at speech.
Maria" he said, pulling himself ur
straight, where do you want your hall
of the old fence piled?''
Caleb she almost whispered as she
came and laid her hand on his arm, "pile
it up with yours. w. J. hampton In

TELEGRAPHIo TALES.

In New York, the Vesuvius was foated
at high tide in the Sound without injury.
There were four deaths Thursday from
choleraine at st. Denis and fourteen at
AuberYilliers, France.
At Atlanta Peter Daniels, colored, was
hanged for the murder of Sylvia Lyle, his
mistress, whom he caught with another
negro.
The Sunday civil appropriation bill has
been presented to the house. All the sem
ate amendments were rejected except that
relative to the worlds fair. This will be
discussed tomorrow and a vote will be had
Tuesday.
Colonel Dan Lamont, ex- President Cleve-
lands private secretary, went abroad for
his health some time ago. Word has been
received that he is a very sick man. He
lives on milk and is under the constant
care Of a doctor.
1t is thought that Professor Louis Pas
tours illness will almost certainly prove
fatal. The distinguished scientist is suffer-
ing from a disease prevalent in Paris,
which the authorities call chOleraine, but
which is declared by many experts to be
genuine cholera.
The London authorities look upon af-
fairs in Paris with grave suspicion, espe-
cialally because the issue of civil records
suddenly closed three weeks ago.
Reports of cholera in Eastern Europe are
very disquieting in London. The proposed
great fair at Nijni-NoYogorod, tits thought,
will certainly tend to widen the diffusion
of the epidemic.
| Harris Lunt, manager, and John Viii
son, cashier for Reynolds & Gibson, cotton
brokers at Liverpool, were arrested on the
8th inst. They are known to have EN-
bezzled three fOurths of million dollars.
The disagreement between the house
and senate over the army appropriation
bill is practically settled by an agreement
of the conferees. This is the last of the
bills in conference.

THE FLOW OF GOLD.
Barriers Erected Against Its Ex-
ports to Europe.

Scheme of the New York Bankers
TO Keep the Money i'm the COun-
trY-SenatOr sherman has a New
Financial Plan.
New York, July 16.-It the last two or
three days SIX or eight big banks have
taken steps to do all within their power to
hinder the exports of gold to Europe. The
result has been radical change in the
manner in which shippers secure coin to
be dispatched to the other side. The
bankers are acting on the belief that the
expectations have reached point beyond
which it is not for the interest of the coun-
try. The last $3,5OO,0OO in gold shipped
came from the treasury free gold, which
amounted to $11, ,071, 1857. Tuesday, under
the system heretofore followed, the ex-
porters went to their banks and secured
gold certificates, presenting them in turn
at the sub-treasury, and obtaining the
precious metal in exchange The effect
was to all intents and purposes to take the
gold out Of the banks and not rom the
treasury. Under the new plan the banks
refuse to pay out gold certificates to the
representatives of foreign houses, and in
stead they pay United States and treasury
notes. The former is payable in gold, the
latter in gold or silver, at the option of the
treasury department. So far gold has al
ways been paid for them. The bankers esti-
mate the free gold at the end of the week
to amount to $10,0C0000, a sum not by any
means satisfactory in the view Of the
bankes. January 9, 1892 the free gold in
the treasury was $25, ,812, ,528; January 10,
! 1891, it amounted to $45, ,848 652. President
Cannon of the Chase National bank had
something to say in the matter of Gorman's
bill to stop the purchase of 4, 800, 900 ounces
of silver month. He regarded it as a
very wise move, especially as it is under
stood the senator understood the senator
/ had financial scheme which he proposed
to present in connection with the repeal
act or to follow act or to follow it. The re.
peal would in his judgment, be beneficial
/ to the prospects for a successful interna-
| tiOnal monetary conference. The act OF
the banks in refusing to give gold certif.
| icates to the gold exporters was intended
as a patriotic act. Cannon explained that
| the time had come when the United States
should protect its supply of gold as other
nations have protected theirs, and should
throw as many obstacles in the way of ex-
ports of gold as possible, especially in the
present conditions, when the movement OF
gold abroad did not sem to be a natural
one. The banks had taken the first step
and he hoped the treasury department, Sc
far as the law allowed, would erect other
barriers in the way Of gold shipments.

THE HOMESTEAD TROUBLE.
NOn-UniOn Men Are Going to be Put
to WOrk NexI Week.

to work Next Week.
PITTsBURa, July 16.--A notice was posted
at the Homestead mills this morning by
the Carnegie Steel company and sent all
over the country to the effect that the
Homestead mill Will be started up with
non-union men July 23d. and that any of
the former employees of the company at
this mill who did not take any part in the
recent disturbances, are at liberty to make
individual application for work till July
21st, those first applying to be given a
choice of the untitled places which they are
filling. Those who fail to apply by the
time mentioned will be considered as not
desiring to enter the company's service and
their places will be filed with non-union
men. Secretary Loyeioy says the Union
mills here and Beaver Falls mills will be
started Monday next and that the COM
pany will find no difficulty in getting men
to operate them. 1t is not believed that
any men are now in the Homestead mill
except the regular Watchmen aud few
fremen. The steamer Tide left here this
morning loaded with provisions for the
Homestead works. Carnegie's advertised
for bids for dwellings for Workmen inside
the mill. The company is receiving many
applications for work, including some from
the old men.

Doolittle, of Tacoma, for congress.
There are six democratic names on the

State Senator Claypool, of Tacoma, is de-
yeloping great strength as republican can
didate for congress.
Why not send Steve Judson, of Pierce
county, the sage of picturesque old Stella
COON to congress- Steve would open the
eyes of some of the members of the house
on parliamentary law, and he possesses
precisely the voice that would attract the
speakers attention amid the confusion of
an all-night sessiOn.-Standard.
The Union-Journal says it fayors the
nomination of Ex-Judge George Turner
for governor on the republican ticket, with
sincere admiration for the mans learn
ing, dignity and integrity, 1t will oppose
his senatorial candidacy somewhat be-
cause of its hopelessness.
The many friends and admirers in Ste
vens county of Judge George Turner, of
Spokane, will be pleased to learn of his
announcing himself as a candidate for
United States senator. The Judge is well
qualified for that honorable Office and will
make strong race.-ColYille Republican.
We learn that ex-Mayor Will D. Jenkins
joined the third party at New Whatcom
Wednesday evening last. 1t was supposed
that he expected to put up his flag for sec
retary of state, but he is gOne-gone to the
embrace of James B. Fairhaven
Herald.
There appears TO be a small doubt that
James Hamilton Lewis will be the demo-
cratic nominee for governor-if he carries
the King county elegation.-Elma Chron-
icle.
East of the mountains we have two CUB
ernatorial candidates, s. G.. Cosgrove and

the first prominent man in the state who
has come out and condemned the fallacy Of
exempting notes from taxation.-Golden-
