MT. Joseph Haworth,s Condition.

MT. Joseph Haworth's Condition.
 A few days ago the New York news papers announced beneath long display headlines that MT. Joseph Haworth, the we'll known actor and the leading man of the new Boston Grand Opera House com psny, was seriously troubled with brain difficulty and that he was beyond the cure of physicians. At the time these rumors were being made so much of MT. Hawerth had just been discharged from the Boston city hospital, where he had been treated for jaundice, which disease he contracted at the seashore during his summer vaca- ton. As soon as MT. Haworth learned of the talk concerning his health he wrote the following letter 10 Manager A. H. Dexter:
 LANaHAx HOTEL. BOSTON, Sept. ?: 1898.
 My dear Mr. DexterII enclose you & note from S,5,, perceive how very absurd and inane are the rumors concerning my recent indisposition. This will set all doubts at rest hope. am feeling in tour. Anticipating a very pleasant season un. der your generous management and with many thanks for past courtesies' liam, am, yours, W.o,r.
 Dr. Folsom's letter announces that he treated MT. Haworth for jsundice, that this was the only disease that troubled with his mental faculties This should put to rest the unhappy rumors concern ing MT. Haworth's health. The actor be- gins work with the Boston Grand Opers House company the first of next month and when "Rosedale" is presented here MT. Haworth will be eeen as the gallant Eliot Grey of the cast.

increased ss per cent. The .shoddy
cloth produced in 1890 was 81 per cent.
Of the woolens' made in this country.
The high tariff on wool has also in
jured the farmers. The act of 1857
crippled the manufacturers and de-
creased the demand for raw material.
In 1867 there were SO, ,0O0i00O sheep in
the country; in 1881, Notwithstanding
our enormous increase Of population,
there were only 43. .4Sl 900. In 1867 the
price OF wool was 81 cents, in 1878 1t
was 40 cents; last month, under the
Mckinley tariff, it ranged from l91 for
unwashed coarse wool to S59 cents for
secured fine medium. The farmer gets
less for his wool and pays more for his
clothes under high wool tariff.
Nor have the manufacturers pros
pered. Foreign woods that they need
are excluded by the tariff. Many fac
tories have closed. The demand for
wool has decreased. The demand for
shoddy has grown. All the wooden
interests would be benefited by free
wool. But-and this is the eonsiders-
tion of first importance-the peoples
clothes would be cheaper and better.

Free Wool.

Free wool is Democratic policy. 1t
was embodied In the Mills bill. It Is
included in the Wilson bill. The
tariff tax under the law of 1883 ranged
from % to 12O per cent; under the
Mckinley act it ranges from 243 to 100
per cent, and the average tax is more
than "A per cent.
The policy Of protecting woods by
high tariff taxes was entered upon in
1867. It was assumed that the tax on
the raw material would make 1t higher,
and to compensate the manufacturers,
an additional and specific duty was
levied on foreign cloth to make that
dearer also. 1t was intended that the
consumer should bear the whole bur
den-should pay the tax on the raw
wool and on the cloth made from it.
The scheme has not worked well
The only one of the original purposes
of the framer of the wool tariff thai
has been realized is the wrong done
to the consumer, the purchaser Of
wooden cloth, Of ready-made clothes
of carpets, blankets and flannels. And
the cheaper the goods purchased
which means as rule the poorer the
purchaser, the higher the tax that has
been exacted.
Last year the people of this country
paid tax of $34, ,293, ,606 on wooller
goods the full value of which was only
$95, ,792, ,905. This was a tax of NOR
than So per cent. In the same yea
the tax paid by the manufacturers TO-
their raw material was $7,799,085.
This is not the only cost to the peo
pie. The tax on raw wool has injured
the business Of manufacturing goot
cloth and has stimulated the shodd,
business. A low-priced American
woolen means poor woollen. From
1860 to 1870 the capital employed il
shoddy mills increased 561 per cent
and the product 339 per cent. From
1880 to 1890 the value Of the produc

and the mayor paused and cast a ques-
tioning glance at the men before him.

ward the shanty. He was throwed
from his hoss and killed this mornin.
The men from Alkali City exchanged
swift glances, but none of them spoke.
One of the strangers standing near by
now turned to the man nearest him and
said:
"lt'll be hard on his poor wife an
children. They hain't got hardly moth
in ter live on, reckon"
Meanwhile Abe Horner. the marshal
of Badgertown. had gathered a little
crowd of citizens about him and was
talking earnestly.

ter give, but I'm goin ter give all can

The marshal took off his hat. and
dropping several pieces of silver into it
proceeded to make a financial tour
through the crowd, and for some time
the clinklng of falling coin was the only
sound that broke the stiffness.
While this was going ON the chief of
Alkali City and his followers were
conversing in low tones.
From all appearances, said the
mayor, IL reckon we hev"---

was ratified by the entire delegation.
I'm jist open the subscription with
few of these, said the mayor, taking
off his hat and dropping a handful of sill
yer into it.
His example was followed by all the
others, and his hat soon resembled the
specie vault of small savings bank.
Now" said the magistrate, well
see how them other fellers air succeed

meek another assessment.
With this he approached the crowd
of Badgertown citizens and said:

"Waal, answered the mayor, Aka

an hyar's her bit-'bout 5000, l reck-
on" and he emptied his hat at the feet
of the astonished crowd.
Then, without waiting to hear the
expressions of gratitude that rose to the
lips of the amazed citizens. of Badger
town, he turned and walked away.
A few moments later the whole AL
kali City delegation mounted their
horses and galloped out of town and
were soon lost to sight over a swell in
the prairie.
For half an hour they rode before a
word was spoken. Then the mayor broke
the silence:

The Pomaks of Rhodope.

Who on earth, or what on earth, are
the Pomaks? is the question which will
suggest itself to most of those who
glance at the heading of this article.
The Pornaks are Bulgarophone Moham-
medan Bulgarians-t is to say, they
are Bulgarians who have adopted the
creed of Islam, but retained their own
language. With their native speech
they have preserved certain usages and
customs of their own race, thus afford
ing to the ethnologist an admirable field
for speculation as to the extent to which
change of religion, unaccompanied
by other influences, can modify the in
grained characteristics of nation.
There are Pomaks in many parts of
Bulgaria, but the Pomak territory par
excellence lies in the widest, remotest
region of the Balkan peninsula, in the
heart of Rhodope, terra incognita to
the European traveller, and known only
by report to the neighboring races; in
ancient days the haunt of the frenzied
Bacchantes,
OF that wild rout that tore the Thracian bard
In Rhodope, when woods and rocks had ears
To rapture, till the savage clamor drowned
Both harp and voice
and in later times the inaccessible re-
treat of fierce, fanatical mountaineers,
who scorned for centuries the rule OF
Turk and Christian alike, and bravely
resisted every effort to bring them into
subjection. 1t was only quite recently
that Bulgarian force succeeded in oc-
cupying the remoter portion of the
Pomak territory assigned seven years
ago by the convention of Top Khane to
Eastern Roumelia. Fortnightly Re-
view.
