Prof. Charles Lorzeno, whose homo

has been exhibiting at the Wonderland
Dime Museum the past two weeks his
troupe of trained dogs, met with severe
loss last evening. The cages containing
the five dogs, to make il convenient,
were placed on the roof adjoining the
museum. Near the cages was a nine
where exhaust steam escaped from an
engine. When the electric light ma.
chinery was put in motion the wind
blew the escaping steam into the cages.
The professor went to look at his dogs
previous to the performance last evening
and was surprised to find them dead,

dogs and as he spoke of his great mis-.

Whatever dispute there may be as
to the success or failure of protection ut
other points" says the Baltimore Sun,
"there can be none as to its utter failure
as applied to foreign shipping. The
bounty and subsidy systems have been
well weighed and found wanting. France
has tried them as well as the United
states, and with equal lack of success,
On the other hand, England, Germany
and Norway, having practically aban.
doned bounties and subsidies and given
freedom to their navigation interests by
abollshing restrictions of all kinds, have
seen their shipping tonnage steadily in
creasing. While the steam tonnage of
the United States increased only from
1884 tons in 1880 to 63O,646 tons i'm
ls93-a mere nothing-England added
about 100000 tons to her steam shin.
ping in the same time, Germany made a
gain in hers Of nearly 100000 tons, and
Norway gain in hers of over /, 900 900
tons. Thus, while we have been ''pro.
tecting" our shipping, these countries
have been demonstrating that the only
policy that can really build up any
oountry's mercantile marine is that
which removes restrictions upon it and
leaves it free to grow unhampered by
special taxes and uncoddled by special
grants.
"Mr. Chamberlain, the United States
commissioner of navigation, points out
clearly in the leading article of the cur
rent North american Reoiew that the act
of 1902, admitting the famous Atlantic
liners, the New York and Paris, to
American registry, has fully proved the
wisdom of extending that policy to
shipping of all classes. The admission
OF these two vessels was conditioned ON
their becoming completely owned by
American citizens, and upon their pur-
chasers building in American shipyards
two more steamers of equal tonnage.
The duty of the Democratic party IS to
give that experiment broad and gen.
eral extension"

Cheating by means of it Is impossible,
and one of its great advantages is that
the vote is counted US soon as the voting

Delaware was pressed upon the atten.
ton of the Legislature of 1891, in

enacted, but the machine was knocked
out by the limitation attached to the
meaning of the word "ballot' as en-

amendment was proposed to that article

in. This amendment adds the following
