A Kint,erearten Lesson.

The esteemed ItegBNF LEluLuPAaAEAy
asks: If the threat of Democratic free
trade is disturbing the business OF the
country, what is it that is restoring con-
idence all over the country and reopen
ing suspended banks, causing mills TO
resume, &C.?
The financial strIngency which was In
great measure due to the silver situa-
ton ended with the restoration OF con-
tidence consequent on the assurance
that the Sherman law would BIO re-
pealed. This is good enough SO far as
it goes.
The mills that arc resumipg opera
tons are those that were compelled to
close down owing to their inability to
get currency to pay wages while the
panic was on. They have resumed 10
finish their orders on hand at the time
Of closing. They are proceeding eau
tiously and will not manufacture be-
yond the immediate demand for their
products.
In the face of the declaration that
"tho Mckinley bill will be repealed, and
the Democratic pledge to reduce the
tariff will be carried out" it would be
suicidal for the mills to manufacture
more than will fill present orders, as is
their custom. TO produce goods this
year on the basis of high protection
wages to sell next year for tariff for
revenue only prices, which may be low
or than the present cost of production,
would be poor business policy.
Throughout the country this hesi-
fancy exists. Most of the mills that
have resumed arc running with this
idea in view. Many of them are on re-
duced time and reduced wages. Those
that are running full time are doing SO
to fill orders that were delayed by the
money panic All are uncertain as to
the future and this uncertainty will
continue until tho future tariff policy is
known.
The cost of production, the greatest
item of which is wages, cannot be deter
mined until the tariff is fixed, and the
uneasiness and depression in business
circles will exist until then; the hand.
to-mouth policy of tho industries will
continue until then.
II the ways and means committee
should to-day announce that there will
be no tinkcring with the protective
tariff, the wheels would start to going
Immediately with no hesitating, uncer-
tain motion. such as they areaow ex-
perlencing.
It may BIO that Congress will pass a
free trade bill before long and the un-
certainty will be removed. Then the
manufacturers will know how much
they will have to reduce the wages Of
their employees in order to compete
with the products of the cheap labor Of
Europe.
Those who read carefully the tariff
hearings before the ways and means
committee know that the testimony Of
manufacturers and workingmen is al-
most unanimous in support Of these
points.

AN OLD WoMAN's FORTUNE.
How She Trusted Stranger; but not the
Bank.
IN. Y. Pressl

liz L. iOSoI
That was a striking illustration of
the fact that financial confidence is a
vague, often unreasonable and unex-
plainable sentiment, which the officers
of one of the uptown banks had a few
days ago. A woman, whose face was
honest and whose clothing betokened
that her life was one of toll, called at
this bank and asked to deposit sum
of money for safe keeping for few days
there, and when she undid the package
which contained her money, instead OF the
few hunndred dollars which the officers
thought she might have, there was re-
vealed little over $46, 600 The woman,
whose identity was established and
whose story was afterward proven to be
true, was one of the waiting women in
attendance upon one of the women's
rooms in the Grand Central station.
She said that one day an old woman
entered the waiting room and sat there
all day watching her so closely that she
became EN- barrassed. The woman looked
wan and i'll, and the waiting woman
thought that she was possibly poor
creature who had no other place to stop,
ana 50 SHo lusiuoe WIS Soie' i 81
share her cup of tea with her at lunch
time. The old woman gratefully accept
ed. The next day she came again, and
for the third day, watching all the time
this waiting woman with her sharp and
bright black eyes On the evening OF the
third day she said to the waiting woman
in broken English:
II have been watching you these three
DAYS. and now | know that you are per-
fectly honest and | can trust you. am
going to my home in France, where
have not been for thirty years, but the
vessel does not sail for several days. |
know nobody and can trust nobody, and
I have nv savings with me, and am wor-
ried all the while because l am afraid
some one will rob me of them. NOW
know | can trust you, and l want you
to keep this money for me until the
steamer sails" j
The waiting woman promised to do It,
having sympathy for the lonely ola
creature took from place of conceal
ment upon her person parcel contain
ing her money and showed it to the wait
ing woman, the savings were found 20
be few more dollars than S46, 900.
Much of this was in large bills, elnto
which the woman had exchanged her
money. The waiting woman was frlght,
ened because of the responsibility, anu
then she bethought her, of the bank
and thus the deposit was made IN tna5
institution. On the day that the steam
er sailed the old Frenchwoman received
every penny and was Overlooking with
gratitude. She did not trust banks, but
She did trust the woman whom she had
never seen, and this woman, not KNOW
ing of financial distur bnces, had perfect
confidence in the banks.

Three shots failed to take effect, while
the fourth and last one raked the pan
ther fore and aft, plouhing furrow
through his skin, but failing to dislodge
him.
With ammunition all gone, and the
wounded panther still able to wag his
tail in defiance from the limb OF the
tree, the men held consultation as to
what should be done, and finally decided
not to go home unless they could take
the varmint's hide home with them.
They finally hit upon plan, and at
once put it into execution. Taking a
lariat from one of the horses, they made
a running moose in the end of it. Then,
securing a pole, Smith climbed the tree,
and endeavored to slip the moose, over
the panther's head. The animal was

it away with stroke of his paw. In
his efforts to protect his head, however,
the panther forgot his hind quarters, and
carelessly let his leg bangle below the
limb. He knew not the men he was
dealing with, for, seeing this leg, smith
succeeded in slipping it just where the
break occurred, the broken bone. keeping
the rope from slipping.
The end of the rope was carried to the
ground, the dog was turned loose, the
men began to pull, and the circus. was
in full operation. The panther held on
for awhile, but his endurance was, not
equal to the strain, and as he came down
the air seemed full of teeth tails and
fur, which lit close to the dog There
was short and interesting bout, when
the varmint broke away and made dash
for one of the men. By a quick manipu-
'lation of the rope, however, the, panther
was thrown over the edge of high
bank, where, completely . used up, ne

clubs and stones, and his hide was car
ried home in triumph by the victors.

The French give out strong themes
for their young art students, and Lee
febvre, the exquisite draughtsman who
painted the wonderful nude called
seTruth," with the lamp, had to take for
his subject when boy ''The Death OF
Priam," thus inviting classical re-
search. Knaus, a German who cut
loose from the Dusseldorf school and
initiated the French, among whom he
lived eight years, has strong reputa-
ton in this country, from the high
prices some of his pictures have OBJ
tanned, such as ''The Holy Family" in
the Metropolitan museum in New
York. He was born in 1929. Melville,
whose battle pictures of the last
French war have been immensely null
tiplied in photographs and colored
copies, came from the Belgian end OF
France, and was born rich and elegant-
ly educated, and entering military
school struck his professor with his
genius in drawing. His family, how
ever, did not want to see him an art
list, and he entered law school In

his Venetian picture of Casharine Car
naro was sold for twelve thousand dol
lars. Some call him the Richard Wag-
ner of German painters. He is the Aus
trian Titan.
The Hungarian Munkaczy was pu-
pil of Knaus, and he took up home
themes and carried Hungarian delinea-
ton into his Old Testament and hlstor-
ic tableaux, and has become the nation
al hero of Hungary, even while old
Kossuth is still alive.
Eastman johnson, who stands at the
head of American negro painters, is
native of Maine and did portraits at
home which attracted praise, and went
to Dusseldorf to study and thence to
various other countries, and finally
settled down in New York before the
civil war, where he painted local
American and negro life. His reputa-
ton has steadily risen. He lives at
Nantucket. in the ocean, in the sum
mer, where he has fine studio.
Another artist whose pictures in this
exhibition are much praised is Thomas
Hovenden, who came from Cork, Ire
land, and arrived in this country thirty
years ago, giving his leisure hours to
painting, and finally taking Paris in
as a school he studied under Cabanel

His American subjects are greatly
praised and have been engraved, such
as John Brown going out of prison to

We believe this to be a reasonable esti-
mate for trip to and from Chicago
made in comfort, and for a weeks stay
in that city under comfortable condl-
'tions. 1t is, of course, based upon the
presumption that the visitor is of simple
tastes and habits, in good health, and
ready to make some sacrifices in the line
of economy. On the other hand, it is
sufficiently liberal to allow of some
reductions in certain items, so as to bring
the total down to $40 1t should also be
noticed that the fare for child not over
10 years of age is but half that for an
adult, and that oftentimes one berth
will suffice for two children.
We think it will surprise a great many
people to find that a visit to the World S
Fair can be made in a comfortable way
at no geater cost than this. II can't go
to Chicago-why, it costs as much as a
trip to Europe"-is common remark;
and there are undoubtedly tens of thous-
ands who can afford to spend $40 or SIS
who are staying away because they have
got the impression that the trip would
cost pretty nearly $50, or, at the very
least, above $780, 1t is a PATRIOTIC duty
to say nothing of a rare pleasure for
every body who can raise money to visit
this wonderful exposition, and because

can afford to go, we have set forth with
