RICHES HAVE WINGS.

Mrs. Katherine Chase, eldest daughter
of the late Salmon T. Chase, "the father
OF greenbacks," organizer OF our present
system of national banks. great war
Secretary of the Treasury, and finally
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. has
become involved in debt and difficulties
to such an extent as to make it necessary
for he trustees to sell the fine old estate
of Edgewood, near this city. the country
home q the late Chief Justice Chase, and
which he bequeathed to his daughter
Katherine"
THIS item, from Washington cores
pondcnt of a metropolitan newspaper OF
few days ago, shows how
The wheels go round and round,
While some come up and some go down.
Time was, and that in the memory Lf
persons now living, when Katherine
Chase held almost royal swav at the
nations capital. Rich, beautiful, accom-
pllshed, and the daughter of the great
war secretary of the treasury, Salmon
Portland Chase and, as the pettcd child
ofpolitical and social fortune, nothing
tmcd to stand between her and con-
tnued happiness, Her mother dying
when she was almost child, Katherine
became the idol of her father, and pre-
sided over his home during the stirring
war times. In the full flower of her
beauty she captivated Governor Sprague,
the millionaire of Rhode Island. Whether
this match was one of affection, or made
solely for its financial advantage, it new
er brought happiness. Winters IN Wash
iugton and yearly trips to Europe, with
seasons at n rragarsett thrown in,
made up the life OF this gay woman.
Troubles arose, and finally scandal
and divorce. The children were di'
vided, the son remaining with the father
the three girls with the mother. The
wealth OF the Spragues took wings, and
the son, Willie, died few years ago in
the West, poor and miserable. The girls
were educated in Paris, and one of them
has been for years member of the
Mansfield theatrical company.
And now the sheriff walks in where
beauty and wealth once held high car
nival, aud SAYS, PAY that thou owest.
And soon will come that last creditor,
and demand his own. Surely riches take
to themselves wings, beauty fades, great
ness is a shadow-virtue aloue can stand

TARIFF OBJECT LESSONS.

Two Notable Instances of American
Enterprise and Ability.
From the New York World.
The fac, that the Bethlehem (Pa. Co.
was able to secure the contract for 12,-
600 tons of armor plate for Russianir
c'ads, bidding against the greatest Eu-
ropean iron manufacturers, shows the
combined folly and robbery of high
tariff to keep foreign wares out of this
market. The American Wool and Cot.
ton Reporter gives another instance.
rwcnty-ounce cheviots" of American
manufacture under free wool "are now
beng sold here at price which is actu-
ally lower than the like quality of En-.
gish make is sold in the English mar
kets," An expert who had seen t ese
goods and who had just come from
England stated that he could take them
back to Bradford and sell them there at
profit" The new tariff is recording its
own ohject-lessons 1t will educate the
people more vet before 1896.

THE Knoxville Journal, speaking OF

1--WE trust that our friends will AID us

The Journals friends will help it some,
incidentally, but it must drop its plead

the Journals position i'll this matter is
silly. No grocer, no dry goods dealer

in the world who can enhance the value
of the Journal are the men OF brains in
the Journal Office.
II is simply justice to say of Chas. D.
Blanton that more generous man is
seldom met with. So long..as he had n
dollar it was to be had for the asAing
by anyone who knew him well enough
to approach him. Nor did he by Any
means conhue his pcuhandedness to
those who had some real claim on ms
generosity BY reason of being intimate
friends his aid was to be had for
the poor and unfortunate whenever
solicited. He gave more than he could
afford to, and apparently because he
could not bear to refuse to aid a irllow
being in distress. He was a faithful
friend, and had he been equally faithful
to the best that was in him the story Of
his life might have been much prolonged
beyond the brief annals we recite today.
There was nothing mean or small about
the man. Nature endowed him with n
large heart; that he did not also possess
