 LATE COUNT OF PARIS.

He Has Always Understood That if His
 Fathers Claims to the French Throne
 Failed He Was Himself to Claim In His
 Turn.
 He is 25 years old now, is tho Duke of Orleans, and all his life he has been taught that, as in his family is consoli- dated the blood of both the Orleans and Bourbon houses, the head of that family is by divine right entitled to reign over France. His father, the Count of Paris, "claimed' the French throne before the son was born, and it has always been understood that if the fathers claiming failed to win it then it would be the right and duty of the son to go ahead and claim it for himself. The duke is named after the last legitimate occu- pant of the French throne, his full name being Louis Philippe Robert, and from all accounts he has sedulously striven to earn the right to be spoken oi as typical prince of the blood royal in his tastes and training
 The Count of Paris married his cous' in, the Princess Isabella, daughter oi the Duke of Montpensier, in 1867. and the baby that was to be known as tho Duke of Orleans was born two year. later. As the parents were then in ex

TIE Wool and Cotton Reporter takes the ground this week that clothing has been too cheap in this country. It finds the reason for this in extravagant competition for its production. The wages of the tailor have been tco low. it says; the profits of the clothier have been too small the margins for return to the cloth manu- facturer have been too narrow. All this has been outside and independent of the tariff. In point of fact. while it has been demonstrated that low priced clothing could be produced under high tariff, this has been done at the expense of the work jag people and of those in business. There may be something in this condition of sffairs; the Wool and Cotton Reporter is intelligent authority on the point. It is clear. h 1wever. that the new tariff will re- duce the cost of clothing production, wEo- ever may have the benefit of it
