The New York World has made care
full computation by taking the average
prices Of sugar in 1891 and 1898, and ends
that the net profits Of the sugar trust, the
cost OF production being the same, in
creased during that time over eighty per
cent, and that the net profits enjoyed by
few sugar refners in combination dur
ing the past year were greater than the
interest on the national debt. Taking
this computation as true-and it cannot
be far from true-we begin to realize the
meaning Of the late sugar famine" We
also realize the present needs OF at least
one Of the "infant industries" which at
one time no doubt needed help and pro-
lection. Now lobbyists are besieging
Congress in their selfish interests until 1t
becomes leading question how many
members will become large stock holders
in the sugar trust.

When Mary Hannah's dress was done
The neighbors all came in to zee.
And gazed aud "my'd" and "oh'd" aud .ah'd'
Till she was proud as proud could be-
The day was mild and the sun shone bright.
SO, yielding to the neighbours talk,
She thought to put the garment on
And go out for little walk.
The stunning gown was donncd, and then
She cried for half day or more
The sleeves, alas, were made so wide
She couldn't get them through the door!

JUMPED FROM THE AQUEDUCr
BRIDGE.-About half-past nine o'clock
last night, while the storm was raging,
q love-sick young woman concluded to
end life's disappointments by burying
herself in the chilly waters of the Poto-
mac, and she chose the Aqueduct bridge
at Georgetown as the place from which
to drop. The name OF the would-be
suicide is Flora Smith. She is re-
markabls pretty girl, of the blonde
type, with a neat, slender figure. She
was born in Lombardy, Ontario, and
went to Georgetown last Saturday from
Madison Barracks, Sackett's Harbor,
Y. y, with Capt. and Mrs. Foote, and
was stopping with them at hotel.
She is about 19years old. The lover in
the case is William Foster Daugherty,
drummer in the band at Fort Myer.
So far as the young woman is concern
edit appears TO have been case oflove
at first sight, although the gay young
bandman did not take matters so serl-
ously. After reaching Georgetown she
wrote him several letters, and yester-
day ne called to see her at the hotel.
She says he wanted her to take ride
with him, and promised TO show her
around Fort Myer. She accompanied
him during the early part of
the night. and he took her to
public house where ne got drunk and
fell asleep. The girl slipped out of the
room and left him. She told a woman
in the house to inform him when ne
awoke that "Flora has gone forever,
She was crying pitifully as she faced
the storm, and started for the bridge.
When she had reached the third span
from the Virginia side she stopped.
Climbing over the rail she hung by her
hands for moment, then, with
scream, dropped into the water llfty
feet below. BY this time the tug Bar
tholdi was within a few feet OF her.
Capt. Coombs, who formerly lived in this
CITY. heard the scream and an instant
later saw the girl in the water. With
the assistance of Robert Cumberland
aud Taylor Davenport, the captain sue
ceeded in rescuing Miss Smith, and
then headed for the dock. She was
provided with dry clothing and later
taken to Capt. Foote'S hotel. Daugh-
ertv is to be courtmartialed. He is
said to be handsome young fellow,
about twenty-five years of age.
