The London Standard is quoted as
saying: "a statement has just been is
sued by the board of agriculture. esti-
mating the produce of wheat, barley
and oats in Great Britain for the year
1898. 1t affords no ray of hope for the
year. The yield of barley in England
was 100000 bushels less than in 1892,
of oats, 100000 less, though the area
cultivated for both grains exceeds that of
the previous year. The acreage of Great
Britain under wheat decreased by 800, 900
acres and the yield was 100000 bushels
under that of 1892. Rents within recent
years have fallen 80 per cent, yet they
must fall twenty-five more if farming is
to be made to pay" Other recent in
formation indicates, says Dr. Hoskins
IN the Watchman, that the tenant farm
ers are everywhere dissatisfied; and
though as class, the English farmers
are far from being disposed to political
radicalism, it is plain that great reduc-
ton in rents will be necessary a
consequent impoyerishment of the
landed aristocracy. This condition of
things is apparent all over Europe. 1t
is curious that Americans should thus,
without purpose, be undermining the
aristocratic Institutions of the old world.

Where are these markets? Are they
in England? No. France? No. Ger
many? No. All these countries are
great manufacturing centers and paw less
than half the wages paid here Are they
in poor, impoverished Spain, or worse
degraded Turkey? Alas! no. Those
markets are supplied by their own man
utacturers. and the people are too poor
to buy our goods. Besides, twenty fam
lilies of Spanish peasants, or rowing
Bedouins do not consume in year,
what one American family will use in a
month. Where then are these markets.
Are they in the English colonies? No.
England alone supplies them. Are they
in the islands of the seas? Perhaps so,
but there every wind that firts with the
sea, will watt to their shores English,
French and German goods made by men
whose wages are trife compared with
those of our once happy America
Where then are the markets of the

Wool was the football of debate in the
House, Saturday, and the amendment
which was adopted, by which the pro-
vision for free wool is to take effect as
soon as the bill passes, was not calcula-
ted to quicken the movement of wool,
Prices are very low, but little wool is
likely to change hands until the tariff
question is settled. The wooden mills
are doing very little. The weeks re-
ports, says the Boston Journal, again
show more assumptions than shut
downs. The starting up of several of
the large carpet mills is explained by the
Wool Reporter OH the ground that the
manufacturers. having got the cost of
manufacture to a very low point, feel
forced to give employment to their
op 'ratives, even though they are with
out orders and expect to have to sell
the goods at auction. The heavy re-
duction of wages strengthen this view.

In due time Il drlnkard was sent to the Institute by Il Baltimore judge of q lower court. He was discharged cured. and the city was called upon to pay the bill. The city treasurer, by ad- vice of the city counsellor, refused to pay. 4 second ease occurred like the first, and again the city refused to al- low the claim of the institute. At length third patient was sent to the institute On this one the munagerS decided to make q test case. and so they pushed their claim. The city resolved to find ont if the law was constitutional. and so took the matter to the courts. There it rests al present. The Baltimore city counsellor forribly argues that if the law is to Stand Baltimore is going 10 become a Mecca for the drilmkards of th" whole country.

The govcrHOr Oi Illinois, whose chief dlNtInclion ;s that he par'lOncd some an- archi'tic murdcrers, could hardly be ex- prclcd to act wisely ill the present emergency. It is therefore no, sur priAing ;o find him protesting against thr action of the president in sending United States troops 10 Illinois. He has done all he dared to do to favor and encourage the villains who have Eccu d":troying peace and property in Chica- go. Ii is especially interesting to notice that he pretends to be afraid that th" fine old doctrine of State rights will suffer by the presidents act. And il IS also especially interesting to nUiivv that tie Democratic rulers of the land ar" thH on"% wlu fee! compelled to stAlt, up ;lt this lime fJl the power and the authority o! the central %overn- nrn'.

The notion that the territory of any State is too sacred to permit the cxer else thereon by the United States government of any of it's legitimate functions never had any legal existence and, as rule of conduct. this became practically extinct with the close of the civil war.

ing rig or one that will do for long walks in the woods. Common burlap In its own unbleached color makes a practically indestructible dress and the stun comes very wide and reasonable in price. 1t is often so wide that the width does for the length of the skirt. Select q close weave of burlap. line with light weight red flannel, put q roll of the Gannel about the hem, let your belt be good and wide, and finish 1t with folded belt of flannel, an Eton jacket of the burlap lined with red, and worn over q little waistcoat or a loose front of red. This Is q very nat ty costume and one that is so cheap that it's price may be saved from car fare. The lining of flannel is suggested because it gives the needed wooliness to a boating rig. or one liable to the chances of weather. But this feature may be changed in dresses to be worn at country resorts. For these the bur lap can be made up in many tasteful ways, and it's cheapness is its strong recommendation.
 Generally it Is desired to have the in- door dresses of finer stuffs than the out door ones which are to be subjected to all sorts of rough usage. A good model is pictured here, made of silk crepe fig urcd with q darker shade and cut quite simply with a plain sored skirt and a pointed bodice hooking in the center and having draped fronts. The bac', has no seams and the whole toilet $ lined with a light shade of thin silk. The elbow sleeves consist of large puffs, and the bottom of the bodice as well as the sleeves are finished with bias folds of velvet. FLORETTE.
