prompted him to be sure he was
right and go ahead.
You see, papa has a great deal OF
bluff and buster, but when YOU
come right down to it he is perfectly
safe. Only you must show him that
you have lots of pluck-real grit,
that's what he likes"
"All right; suppose you ask him to
step in now. may as we'll get my

"But, dearest, he is awful big and

''Oh, III it comes to personal vio-

"And you won't let him bluff you?:"
"Not a bluff"
"Then Ill tell him you want to see
him."
There were two chances OF escape
for the young man. n by way of
the door, the other by the window,
but he did not avail himself of either.
When the father strobe into the
room, with his best knook-down-and-

One of the Miscreants Was Shot at,
but Escaped.

SANTA Rosa, Sept. 15.-An attempt was
made this morning at 3 O'Clock to burn
Hunt Bros. & Co.'S canuery. One of the
night watchmen, OF whom there are three,
saw strange man creeping toward the
south-wing drer. He could get no response
from the man, and opened fire with MS
Winchester, when man concealed behind
a stone pile began firing on the watchman.
Several shots were exchanged. but by the
time the other watchmen were on the spot
the supposed incendiary made good his
escape.
GRASS VALLEY, Sept. 15-At o'clock
this morning fire was discovered at the
Glenbrook Park racetrack. 1t started in
the directors Office and communicated to
the stalls at the back of the grand stand,

saved. The directors office and twenty
three stalls were destroyed.
Kerosene oil had been poured on the

work of an incendiary.

FOUND A KNIGHT.
Lindsay to the Rescue of
Carlisle.
HE is A FRIEND OF SILVER.
One Blue Grass Statesman Resents
the Charge of Inconsistency
Brought Against Another.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-Ths speech of
Senator Lindsay Of Kentucky and his de.
fense of Secretary Carlisle, whose sue
cessor in the Senate he is. were received
most attentively to-day. Tomorrow eulo-
gies will be delivered upon the la te Senator
Stanford of California.
Among the petitions presen ted was one
by Cullom of Illinois of ex-soldiers, resi-
dents of his State, alleging that they were
beSet by detectives of the Government,
travelling in disguise and secretly cooper
ating with those who have been distn-
guished for antil athy for those who fought
for the flag. 1t is alleged that these spies
with friendly pretenses visit the homes of
pensioners aud with the basest hypocrisy
| and fawning deception seek to find some
clew to furnish to the Pension Office to
deprive old veterans OF their pensions.
The petitioners ask protection from the
methods OF Government officers who at
tempt to brand pensioners as perjurers and
criminals without the right of being heard
in their own defense. Cullom said the pc
titiOn contained very serious allegations,
which, if true, should be brought TO light.
Manderson tR) of Nebraska submitted
a resolution, which went over until to-
morrow, asking information from the ln-
terror Department as to the abolition OF
consoidatiOn of land offices in Nebraska,
and other States were included at the sug-
gestion OF different Senators. Henderson
said that ii Offices were abolished or con-
| solidated in Nebraska it had been done
without consultation with the Congress
sional delegation from that State.
The Senate then resumed consideration
of the repeal bill. and Lindsay of Ken
lucky addressed the Senate in support of
the bill.
In the beginning of his speech Lindsay
called attention to the fact that the bill
now under consideration contains not a
word looking to the discontinuance Of sill
yer coinage under existing laws and leaves
unimpaired the provisions of the act of
1890 for the coinage of silver in future. he
characterized as most extraordinary the
position that we ought not, bad as the
present law is, repeal it until it is known
what future legislation in the interest of
silver the President will propose. He
said he had read the Presidents message
in vain to find evidence upon which Sena-
tor Pugh rests the belief that the Presi-
dent does not intend to keep faith with
his party and the people. Lindsay then
took up the charge. OF inconsistency so
frequently made of late against Secretary
Carlisle, and defended him at length
against the accusations.
Higgins said, in his opinion, The remedy
was to stop the purchase of silver and see
whether such action. coupled with that of
India, would not compel England and
Europe to resume free coinage.
At the conclusion OF Higgins speech the
Senate. after short exc cutive session, ad-
journed.

1T MEANS LOW WAGES
Not an Easy Matter to Adjust
the Tariff Satisfactorily.
1t Looks as Though Reduction Would
Be Followed by Hard Times
All Around.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 15.-Importers of
hosiery, glove manufacturers of plush and
velvets, cotton yarns, pearl buttons, felts,
gold-beaters, straw hats and pearl-workers
were represented before the Ways and
Means Committee In the tariff arguments
to-day.
The first speaker was Maurice Lowy.
importer of hosiery and gloves. He asked
for specific duty on articles in preference
to an ad-valorem duty. Owen Osborne next
argued for the retention OF the duties on
cotton goods. Titus Sheard championed
the knit-goOds industry and favored sys-
tenn of ad-valorem and specific duties COM
bined. He asked that the duties be per-
mitted to remain as they now are. Fred
E. Kip, in the interest of the plush and
velvet industry, declared that if the spe-
cifc and ad-valorem duties now imposed
were removed it would inflict a great in
jury on wage-earners employed in the in
dustry. A. Sanford. represen ting the cot
ton-yarn industry, declared that if the
tariff was reduced it would be necessary
to decrease the wages Of workmen. S. b.
Chase wanted no change in the tariff
schedules in the cotton industry, but il a
change was necessary would prefer re-
duction to having an advance in ad-va-
loren duties. j. O'Connsll, importer of
Knit goods, wanted specific duty. BE said
the ad-valorem duty opened too many
avenues of fraud.
After recess Gustav Blumsnthal of New
York was heard in the interest OF the i'm
portation of buttons. He thought the
tariff on buttons was too high, and said
that the tariff under the old law was suff-
cient to protect the manufacturers here.
Richard Rauft wanted felts transferred to
the wool schedule. and said he was willing
to pay whatever tariff was imposed on
wool. A. G. Raymond. an attorney repre-
senting the National Pearl-button Associs-
ton, said they were satisfied with the pres
ent duty on pearl buttons. Charles Brce,
gold-beater, argued for high protective
tariff on the product Of the industry he
represented. as did H. II. Reyser ana w.
III. Rutty. importers of gloves. Christian
Schmidt wanted raw material entering
into the manufacture of straw hats ad-
mitted free of duty. II. R. Riddell, repre-
senting the Linen Trade Association of
New York. said the association desired to
have a uniform rate of duty mpOsed on all
classes of linens. II. d. Cooper of New
York wanted ad-vslorem duties on juts and
burlap. E. c. Frisby of Hartford, Conn.,,
