THE POINT OF VIEW.

The Tailor and the Shoemaker Differ
on Business Depression.
Don't it make your pocket jump to
see those customers of yours huStling
around the streets since the tariff bill
passed?'' asked a shoemaker Of a Sixth
street tailor.
Cant say that it does" the tailor re-
piled, with Il far away look. "Pd sooner
see them lounging around"
"HOw's that?''
''pd sooner see them scrubbing their
backs and the seats of their trousers on
cane bottom chairs. Why, see here man!
During the last six or eight months when
everything was duh and heavy as an old
lead pipe, those Third street crokers had
nothing to do but to lounge around their
offices and grind out their clothes on
chairs and sofas. l sold each of them two
pairs Of trousers where | would only
have sold one if they had been hustling
on their feet"
at seems to me that you're the man
whose pocket should Jump" and the
tailor resumed his despondent look.
You're pretty slick, replied the shoe
maker. You see l didn't look at this
new boom IN business the same way as
you did. OF course | have no use for a
man who is sitting around all the time
doing nothing"
NO, he can't wear out shoes that way,
can he?"
mo, and he can't make any money to
pay for them either, can he? Ii that
tariff bill hadn't passed, or war been de-
clared or something of that kind to make
! the boys hustle. l would have been forced
to shut up shop. Pm selling two pairs
of shoes now when l only sold one be-
fore"
And Pm lucky if 1 sell one pair of
pants where l sold two before. What
good has the tariff bill done me?"
''I don't know. l guess you'll have to
put up your prices"
But / can't do that since that Internal
bill has reduced the price of cloth. In
stead of putting up prices l will have to
reduce them about s. 80 on every suit"
Then you'll sell more suits"
"Why?''
Because they will be cheaper"
"But man won't buy suit until the
/ old one is worn"
We'll, PHI tell you what you had bet
! ter do"
| "What?p
Import a stock of moths and slip a
few eggs IN the lining of the clothes you
make. They are better than cane bottom
chairs and DO the work quicker"
! And the shoemaker sailed out of the
shop whistling merry tune, while the
tailor was left alone with his gloomy
thoughts.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The Pope,s Restorations.

The circumstance that his Holiness Lee
Nil. does not cXpend more than eight
lire a day on his board has frequently
given rise TO charges OF parsImouv. Not
withstanding the difficulties at present
attendant upon sthe collection of St.
Peters pence, however, the Pope has
just embarked on an understanding
which will probably cost the Holy Soc Il
good round sum before it is completed.
This is nothing less than the restoration
of the Pluturicchio trescoes in the Borgia
apartments Of the Vatican, which are con-
sidered to rank among the most precious
treasures, not only of the pontihcal
palace, but OF Italy.
For many years the BOrgia apartments
have been iucumbared with books, and
special authorization was necessary for
their inspection. The walls, which bore
trescOes by Pinturicchio in harmony
with the decorations OF the ceiling, have
long been covered with a coating OF plas-
ter. Neither Gregory NVI. nor Plus IN.
could be induced to restore the rooms to
their original state. Leo Kill. however.

much to the discontinue OF the elder
Smith, who was fond of posing as being
still in his early thirties, but with two
boys in their twentles, the situation at
times became embarrassing. Smith paid
asSIduouS court to Miss Granville. but.
like his predecessors, his passion was not
returned, and then one horrible, fatal,
neyer-tO- be-forgotten day our heroine's
father so far forgot the family tree and the
blue blood that he invented-alas l re-
gret to write the words, but stern duty
ompells-Granville, ST., invented a corn
cure. 1t would have been bad enough to
have invented the plebian stuff, but he
actually had the temerity to put the
proud Granville name upon the terrible
connection and, adding insult to injury,
placed the corn cure on the market To be
bought and sold and the family name
tralled low III the dust. When these
things were done in spite of Miss Gran
vlIle's tears and protestations, then did
that maiden look about for some means
OF escape. So she who had refused q
prince, would now take anyone to rid
herself Of the hated name she bore
The family tree no longer scared it's
waving branches proudly heavenward; il
was now trailing low in the dust OF hIi-
initiation. 1t vas at this critical period
OF Miss Granyille's career that Smith
again appeared upon the scene, and. re-
newing his suit, was pleased and gratified
beyond measure to receive q favorable
reply TO his ardent wooing. Smith was
coEuizant of the corn cure, but Smith was
man, and moreover, Smith had no blue
blood TO sacrifice, and he took the corn
cure as huge Joke; and why should he
not. since it gave him the object OF his at-
iections for his very own? So Miss
Granville, without loss OF time, became
Mrs. Smith No. ,; and that is why she
married.

An American IrIshman.

Editor Sheahan of the Redland Facts is
evidently the right kind OF an Iris hman.
Hear him: The editor of the Facts has
never had occasion TO deny, or be ashamed
OF, bearing an Irish name. He has never
had occasion to be ashamed of the land of
his ancestry, though he has had occasion
to blush for the folly of some of its de-
scendants. Furthermore, whatever his
name, his principles are American, and
he has no use for any church, society or
individual who, while avaiIing them
selves OF the advantages of this free land,
yet yield superior allegiance to a for
oign pOtentate.V

Cardinal Vaughan OF England has de-
livered an address on the reunion of
Christendom which is very significant as
coming from prominent Roman Catho-
lie ecciesiastic. 1t does not, indeed, in
our Judgment, afford any hopeful basis
for such q reunion" says the New York
OUtt0ok, "but il proves the existence of a
desire therefor in the Roman Catholic
Church, and thus is significant. The Car
dinal indicates three things which the
Koman Church would surrender for the
sake of such reanion-sbe would allow
priests to marry; she would give COM
munion in both kinds; she would allow
mass to be said in the vernacuiar. But
she would insist on the recognition Of
Christa living teacher, not merely as
an historic personage-which we should
suppose all Christian churches would
also insist upon-and the maintenance,
unaltered, OF the divine constitution oil
the church as authoritatively given by
its founder. This last is only euphem-
istic way OF saying that she would insist
on the papacy, with the infallibihty OF
the Pope grated upon the papacy BY the
Natican Council. So long as the high
church Presbyterian puts the Presoyte-
rian creed and assembly above the Bible,

CONTROL OF SUMMARIES.
The Subject Provokes a Warm Dis
cussion in the Presbyterian
Assembly.


SARATOGA, n. Y, May 19.-The sub
ject of the proposed closer relations be-
tween the General Assembly and the
various Presbyterian theological semi
naries with power of absolute control
over them on the part Of the General
Assembly, which was sprung upon the
commissioners near the close of yester-
day afternoons session, has been the
subject of conversation and confer
ences ever since. When the assembly
met to-day it was with the prospect of
a hot and perhaps acrimonious debate.
The subject of theological seminaries
was opened by DR.. William c. Young,
chairman of the committee. Dr. Will
lam Moore, permanent clerk Of the
assembly, followed, explaining the re-
port of the minority. Previous de-
cisions of the assembly have been
from the beginning in a line quite
the opposite of that now proposed.
Synods and presbvteries have the power
to establish seminaries, and the pres
byteries have the right of original juris-
diction over its members and profess
sors. The minority does not wish to
bring on the civil power when its own
power is sufficient to meet the require
ments of the case. Further considera-
ton of the subject was postponed until
Monday at 10 A. NJ
