the continuance Of the Mckinley tar

mortal injury to the cause Of tariff

TIE senate aud Mr. Cleveland,

tnlctAO TOt.
The more the United States senate
struggles the deeper it sinks in
the mire. The more it assails the
president the more attractive he
seems to the people of America and
the more positive becomes the belief
that the senate is corrupt to the very
heart.
IL will not serve to remove the
stain that lies on this body to rant
about the interference of the execu-
tive in coordinate branch of the
government. This is merely the petu-
lancy of a wrong-doer detected and de-
nounced in the act. The right of the
president To express his opinion on
legislation is ms well defined rs the
right of the Boatncr committee to
criticise the attempt Mt government
by injunction" which Judge Jenkins
friends found so evil and dangerous.
IL is a right inherent to citizenship
and the duty Of citizenship demands
that IL shall he exercised in this
crisis. What citizen is there in all
the land, who loves his country and
its institutions, who respects honesty
and loathes corruption and treachery
and doublc-dealing, who has not pro-
tested in anger and shame ut the
course Of the senate? What one is

is well to occasionally relate OF the
dreams which didn't como true. One
of the contesting heirs OF an aged Bath

strength of this the grave was reopenei
and the casl.et searched carefully, only
to learn that the dreams amounted to

COUNT OF PARIS DEAD.

cumbs to Cancer of the Stomach.

Ihe French kOyal13C Leader Suc'
cumbs to Cancer Of the Stomach.
The Count OF Paris died at Stowe House,
London, shortly before eight o'clock, few
mornings ago. He began to sink vlsibly at
midnight, but at intervals was clearly con-
sclous, recognizing the Countess and his
children as they bent over him and murmur-
ing words of affection for them. All the
members OF his family were around him
when he died. The official medical certia-
cate says that death was due to Intestinal
obstruction, cancer and exhaustion.
Louis Philippe. Albert dOrleans, Comte
de Paris, son Of the late Due d'0rleans and
grandson OF the late Louis Philippe, King OF
the French, was born In Paris, August "a,
1888. he was only ten years old when the
revolution Of February, 184S, broke out, and
he accompanied his family into exile. He
was educated at Claremont. in England. In
the autumn OF 1861 tho young Prince, with
his brother, the Due de Cnartres, accompanied
by their unole, the Prince de Joinvllle, cameto
the United States, and the two brothers en-.
tered the army with the rank Of captains OF
volunteers. They served on General Nc
Clellan's staff till the conclusion OF the cam
paign In Virginia, in June, 1862. when they
returned to Europe. In 1871 the Comte de
Paris was, after some delay, admitted MEM
ber of the. National Assembly at Versailles,
under NJ. Theirs President OF the French
Republic, and, on December a., 1872,
the Assembly voted the restitution Of
the property Of the Orleans family. After
the death OF the Comte de Chambord, which
occurred on August "a, 1883, the great ma
jority OF tho legitimlsts acknowledged
the Comte dc Paris as his successor in
his claim to the French throne. In
1886 the French Government introduced
and passed the Expulsion bill, for
bidding the soil OF France to the direct heirs
OF families that had reignei in France. The
measure was chiefly directed against the
Comte de Paris, who, accordingly, left for
England In July. The Comte de Paris mar
ried his cousin, tho Princess Marie Isabelle

Curiosities of Glycerine.

One of the great advantages o,
elycerine in its chemical employment
is the fact that it neither freezes nor
evaporates under any ordinary tenn
perature. No perceptible loss by
evaporation has been detected at
temperature less than 200 degrees f.,
but if heated intensely it decomposes
with a smell that few persons ind
themselves able to endure. 1t burns
with a pale flame, similar to that from
alcohol, if heated to about 300 de-
grees, and then ignited. Its non
evaporative qualities make the com
pound of much use as a vehicle tor
holding pigments and colors, as IN
stamping and typewriter ribbons, car
bon papers and the like.
If the pure glycerine be exposed for
a long time to freezing temperature,
it crystallizes with the appearance OF
sugar candy, but these crystals being
once melted it is almost an impossl.
bility to get them again into the con,
gealed state. Ii little water be added
to the glycerine no crystalllzatlon
will take place, though under a suti.
cient degree of cold the water will
separate and form crystals, amid
which the glycerine will remain in its
natural state of fuidity. If suddenly
subjected to intense cold, pure gfycer-
inc will form a gummy mass which
cannot be entirely hardened or crys-
tallized. Altogether it is quite
peculiar substance. New York Tele-
