The doctrine of the Chicago conven-
ton is that no duty should be levied
on any imported articles which are
produced or producible here-not
only because such a dutyis bad econ
omy, but because it is in violation of
the federal constitution. That cuts
off all temporizing pleas. Any tariff
with so much Protection about it as
would "clog the leg of flea" must
be pronounced unconstitutional 10y

Remarkable Discoverv.

Toward the end of last year Professor
Griesbach forwarded to Vienna many
fossils OF the mesozoic age which he had
collected during his geological explora-
tons in the central Himalayas on behalf
OF the Government OF India. These fos-
sils were found to correspond in re-
inarkable way with the Alpine strata of
the same distant age. This fact so inter
ested the authorities of the Vienna Acad-
envy ofScience that they have determined.
with the cooperation of the Government
OF India, TO send out an exploring party
to the central Himalayas to compare their
geological features with those OF the Eas-
tern Alps. Dr.. Carl Diener, Lecturer in
Geology at the University of Vienna. has
been chosen leader of the party. DIR.
Diener is the President OF the Vienna
Alpine Club. He has journeyed through
the Arabian Desert, climbed Mt. Lebanon
and crossed over the Rocky Mountains
Ills work on the geological structure of
the Western Alps is standard in Austria

= A waggish broker who is widely and
popularity known i'll Wall street, is So

he made considerable fun for himself and
his association last week. He is by no
means noted as marksman, and when
he took half a dozen Of his New York

ION, pshawr' "Nonsense!" "Pooh-

sIstent, and he suggested that perhaps

The College Graduate Defended.

The declaration by Andrew Carnegie
that the college graduate has no chance
against the boy who swept the office or
began as shipping clerk at II. is false, be-
cause it is too sweeping entirely. The
uneducated man undoubtedly does get
there, in worldly sense, with great fire.
quency, but the college-bred man gets
there, too, with frequency entirely ig-
nored by the men who do not happen to
have been coilege-bred. The test of sue
cess applied by men of the Carnegie
stamp is too narrow. They measure it
by money alone, and by large quantities
of money. The uneducated man may
develop his business faculty to an enor-
nous degree, and by perseyering in the
exercise of that faculty anass great
wealth, but does he do much else for the
world ?-St. Louis Star-Sayings.

night the jury returned verdict in the
celebrated case of United States Mar
shall w. q. Long and C. j. Behlow against
Jacob S. Fischer, in favor of plaintiffs.
The jury's decision meets the approval of
the citizens. The case had its beginning
in Judge Levy's court, and was trans
ferred from there to the Superior Court of
this county, and 1t has had run of thirty
five working days. By the verdict Long
and Behlow will regain the stocks that
were purchased from them by Fischer by
fraud, as it was proven at the trial In
the trial of the case the ownership OF the
Golden Gate mine, the most valuable

"FAT-TAIL" SHEEP.

Shipment From Persia Which VIII
Probably Come to California.
LONDON, May 19.-The National liner
HeIyetia viii carry to New York this
week an interesting cargo, which has
been consigned to the Agricultural De-
partment at Washington, and the arrival
OF which viii mark an important epoch in
American sheep breeding. The cargo will
consist of thirteen sheep and three lambs,
which arrived yesterday from Bushira in
Persia, from which port they were
shipped by Truxton Beale, the United
States Minister.
The sheep, whose tails are not unlike
estphallan hams in shape, are known
as 'tat-tails," and are noted for the beauty
and richness of their neeces, which are
the purest astraehan. Several attempts
have been made to breed them in Eng
land, but they could not stand the rigOr
OF the climate and died. The present
consignment will probably be sent to
California or some other warm climate.
IN pursuance of Geographic orders from
Mir. Wharton at Washington the sheep
are being treated in manner becoming
their station, this duty requiring the COM
bined efforts Of Edmond MoflaC agent of
the Agricultural Department.; DR.. Wray,
United States Inspector Of Deptford, and
George =. HillcOtt of the British Foreign
Office.

LION OF ST. MARX.
The Famous Venetian symbol Restored
and Replaced on Its Column,

The symbol of the Venetian Republic
the famous lion of st. Mark which, after
being restored. has been replaced on its
column in the PiaZzetta in Venice is
made of bronze. There is a tradition
among the Venetian people that its ewes
are diamonds, but the Pat Mail Bldqet
says they are really white agates, faceted.
Its name is most deliberately wrought,
and its retracted gaping mouth and its
fierce mustches give 1t an oriental aspect.
The creature as it now stands belongs to
many different epochs, varying from
some date previous to our era down to
this century. 1t is conjectured that it
may have originally formed part of the
decoration of some Assyrian palace st.
Marks lion is certainly was not origin
ally, for il was made to stand level upon
the ground, and had to be raised up in
front to allow the evangel to be slipped
under its forepaws. Last year The granite
column on which the lion stood was seri-
ously off plumb, and the authorities de-
cided its rectiication. The work was in
trusted TO Signor Vendrasco, who. by
passing copper bar through the axis of
the shaft and by balancing the whole
shaft upon the rod, compelled it 10 return
to the perpendicular. The work was at
tended with no little danger and diff
Guilty, but within three days was entirely
successful.

LIKELY TO LAST FOREVER.
Christian Religion, Based on Practical
Civilization, VIII Continue.


A recent writer has told us that as all
other civilizations have passed away so
the present civilization of Europe and
America, including its code of morals, its
laws and arts must pass away also. The
present age is a little fond of this sort of
speculation. We are told that the stored
up heat OF the earth, in the shape of its
coal beds, must III certain year be eX-
hausted, and that the revolutions of the
solar system must eliminate at length in
a catastrophe of destruction or readjust-
ment. The CaitFcit8iGR does not think
such anticipationS are extremely useful.
1t is, however, unSettling to some minds
TO learn that modern civilization, like the
army OF CambyseS, may be buried as deep
as If hundred feet OF the Sahara covered
1t. There is one tact that such dreamers
seem to lose sight OF. Civilization is gen.
orally no more than the concomitant Of
some religion or other. Persian civillza-
ton gave way to the Greek idea because
the Greeks were superior in religion and
morals to Persia. Greece in her deca
dence gave way to Rome for the same
reason. Modern cosmopolitan civiliZa-
tlon succeeded through the denomination
on a cosmopolitan church, whose teach
lngs are the teachings of Jesus Christ,
anu whose theology is the purest and most
exalted the world has ever seen. Before
the scenes are again shifted and the stage
IS cleared, new religion must be ready
Tor It's entrance. a religion superior to
Ghrstlanity no one has yet formulated.
There have been many experiments
posItivism and agnosticism, deism and
theosophy. Such cults are incompatible
with civilization popular, Widespread
