Negotiations are now pending between
Mr.. Mills, superintendent of the live
stock exhibit at the worlds fair,
and William O'Brien McDonough, the
young California millionaire, for a two
weeks exhibition of the great English
stallion and unbeaten thoroughbred,
Ormonde. The horse was formerly the
property of the duke of Westminster
and was sold by him to a South Ameri-
can for 200. The perfection of the
animal in conformation, his unbeaten
record of sixteen races, defeating the
greatest runners in all Europe, and his
great success as Q sire-Orme and St
Cation, his sons, being two of the
champions of the English turf-make
him by far one of the greatest thorough
breds that ever looked through bride.
A week ago Ormonde arrived in New
York from England and will soon be
en- route to the great stock farm of his
new owner in California 1t is expect
ed that the animal will be allowed to
stop over a couple of weeks and show
his great self in the stock pavilion.

REGARDING The TARIFF.

No Immediate Danger Of Any Democratic
REFORM"
i Undoubtedly therei is some truth in the
assertion of ex-Speaker Reed that the
uncertainty regarding the tariff is one
of the reasons for the disturbance in
business confidence. The primary and
predominant cause, of course, is the
financial question, but the tariff has
some effect in this direction. To con-
siderable extent the system which has
built up the greater part of our manu-
featuring and mining industries is
threatened by the victory Of the party
which is pledged to strike down that
system. While we do not believe that
the majority of the democracy favors
the doctrine enunciated in its national
platform that protection to domestic
industries is unconstitutional, the fact
that such provision was permitted to
appear in that deliverance, and that it
was not disclaimed by any represented
tive man in the party during the can
vass or since, commits the party, in a
sense, to a radical anti-protection pol
icy, and this naturally constitutes Q
disturbing factor in the situation.
1t would have been we'll if the presi-
dent, when he mentioned the tariff at
all in his extra session message, had
counseled moderation in the treatment
of this question when 1t should come
up in the regular session. Such adj
vice. to be sure, might have but little
restraining effect on his party, but it
would be an assurance to the country
that the head of the government would
exert his influence in the direction of
conservatism, and would help to allay
the popular distrust on this score pend
ing the settlement of the silver ques-
ton. The tariff will not be touched
in any event until the financial issue
is got out of the way. but if, in the
meantime, the dread of radical legisla-
ton affecting our industries could be
removed, the settlement of the none
tary question would promptly and COM
pletely restore business confidence and
place industry in all its departments
on a solid and safe footing once more.
Our own opinion is that there will be
no radical legislation on the tariff by
this congress. There will be no savage
assault all along the protection line.
Unfortunately, however, this opinion
seems not to be generally entertained.
We believe that the president is OPP
posed to any legislation that will seri-
Ously lessen the margin of protection
that has all along been allowed our
principal manufacturing industries,
and through which they have grown to
their present proportions, and. as it
seems to us, a large and influential ele-
ment of his party takes the same
ground. The extremists will, perhaps,
propose the removal of most of the du-
ties which have any protection in them
SO as to reduce the tariff to the revenue
basis, but we think the democrats from
the manufacturing states and the con-
members of the party gen.
orally will unite with the republicans
and defeat such policy. Unhappily,
the dread of drastic legislation cannot
readily be removed, and its existence is
one of the serious features of the situa-
tiOn.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

How Do You Perspire?

The greetings of the divers people
who congregate on the Midway Plais-
ance at the Columbian exposition are
said to be deeply interesting to those
who are sufficiently acquainted with
the language to understand them. The
Arabian observes to his fellow-Arab:
Thank God, how are you?" The Swede
asks the rather inconsequential ques-
ton: ''How can you?" The French
man solicitously inquiries: ''How do you
carry YOURSELF" Germans want to
know ''How goes it?" or "How do you
find yourself?" The Russians formula
is: ''How do you live on?" But the
Egyptians is the salutation which ap-
peals most strongly to the broiled sight
seer in his cosmopolitan reservation.
He anxiously inquiries: How do you
perspire?' There is wonderful affinity
between this greeting from the land of
the Nile and the crocodile and the IA
miliar question put by Americans, from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from
the lakes to the gulf: us it hot enough
for you?'-Pittsburgh Chronicle.

PLAYING WORLDS FAIR.

That Is q New Game and the Children
Have Lots of Fun with 1t.
"Playing worlds fair" is now favor
tie amusement of the smaller boys and
girls of Chicago. Many of them have
seen for themselves the beauties of the
exposition, including the bizarre glo-
ries of the Midway Plaisance. All these
things the little ones try to reproduce
in woodsheds and attics and under
back porches. Toys and pictures and
lanterns and anything else that can be
made to simulate some feature of the
exposition is set up in the ''fair'' and an
an admission fee varying from five pins
to one cent is collected from neighbor-
ing kids who are not favored with
full-term passes by the directors.
A West side mother recently observed
great agitation among her little flock
and on inquiry was told they had a
worlds fair in the basement, and that
she might come in for a cent" She
paid no more attention to the matter
till in the afternoon her little boy, aged
seven. ran in with glowing cheeks and
told her to come quick and see their
Midway, and that Jennie and Mile
a neighbours little girls-were dancing
like the Persians at the fair. There
was enough in this TO alarm the young
matron. and, apparently responsive to
the boys urgent invitation, she permit
ted herself to be led to the basement,
where she was Mortified at what she
saw Jennie and Mile, little tots of
about six years of age, were perched on
a dry-goods box doing duty as stage,
and. clad only in single garments, were
going through motions that would
have been most shocking in their sug-
gestive depravity were it not for the
baby innocence of the performers. A
most enthusiastic audience of about
their own age applauded the tiny
dancers, all equally ignorant and inno-
cent. Without provoking inquiry as to
why she did it, the mother managed to
stop the dance" and to obtain from
the children promise that they would
not repeat it. Cautious questioning
developed the fact that large boy who
lived in the neighborhood and who had
seen the Midway dances had told the
little fellows who were getting up the
play fair that the Midway was the best
part of the exposition, and had told
them how to reproduce the scenes and
had taught the little girls how to imi-
tate the contortions of the oriental
dancers Chicago Herald.

A NATURAL CONDITION.
Fear Of Tariff Changes Produces Bushes.
StagnatlOn.

Fear Of Tariff Changes Produces Business
StagnatlOn.
The fear of tariff by the
party in power at Washington has, for
the time being, paralized the demand
for manufactured goods The condition
which exists is perfectly natural. The
democracy assumed power. pledged to
smash the tariff; and the average Amer
lean assumes that the pledges made by
the democracy at Chicago, last summer,
were in good faith and will be redeemed.
If this assumption be correct, the flu
ture of prices of all manufactured arti-
cles in any way dependent upon the
tariff is wrapped in utter uncertainty.
Action at Washington is quite likely to
mean increased competition and lower
prices. Whether the decline will be
large or small. it is impossible to de-
termine Under the circumstances
however. the prospect is such that large
dealers, both wholesale and retale, dare
not place with the agents of the mills,
factories and furnaces the orders which
in years past have been given at this
season, and which have usually aggre-
gated millions and hundreds of millions
of dollars.
This year, for the first time during
the present generation, hand-to-
mouth policy has been enforced upon
the dealers in all lines of trade. They
dare not lay in stocks of goods for the
fall and winter trade, fearing that
tariff changes either actual or proposed
would be likely to depreciate the
value Of their goods and involve them
in loss, while, in addition to this de-
probation in the value of their stocks.
a curtailed demand for their goods,
owing to the closing down of domestic
establishments under the stress Of in
creased foreign competition, and re-
auctions of wages would involve them
in further loss
Hence. dealers are diminishing,
rather than increasing, their stocks of
goods.
Hence, the mills, factories and fur
naces are receiving few orders, under
the operation of this hand-to-mOuth
policy on the part of the dealers; and
stoppage and curtailment of produc-
ton becomes necessary.
1t is uncertainty on the tariff ques-
ton which is chiefly responsible for the
ills which the people are suffering

The first telephone that was ever used
was not electrical, nor was it a scientific
instrument in any sense of the term. A
little more than 90 years ago the en-
ployees of a large manufactory beguiled
their leisure hours by ldtehying. Kites
large and small went up daily, and the
strife was TO see who coull get the lar
gest. The twine which htid them was
the thread spun and twisted by the ladies
Of the village. One day 10 the tail of the
largest kite was attached kitten sewed
in a canvas bag, with a netting over the
mouth to give it air. When the kite was
at its greatest height-9OO feet or more
