There Is enc man In Illinois who has con-

fully and made up his mind that he wants
none of IT. He advertises in a morning pa
per to-day:
''Personal-I hereby renew my allegiance
TO Victoria Queen OF England. George

legfance when he first made up his mind
TO Join the Democrat party, but he has
thought better Of IL upon considering the
bogus free trade which IL profters 10 IN

Victoria need not order any pyrotechnic

Game Protection.


Dr. S. T. Vincent, In American Field.

the game of Indiana is being rapidly wiped

the front of which is literally fest"oned with
strings of quails killed by market-hunters.
These quaily are not shipped into this State,
but are killed here and in this vicinity, too.
Around every little country town town are are

them. The statement that at the close OF

the whoe corner OF the room was filled
with quails, and the road being impossible,
they could not be shipped. In this instance

sport all through the season were buried IN

down TO work. Our shooting men and all

are pledged to do their best TO defeat any
man who will not openly pledge himself in

propose to send thousands OF postal cards
all over this district sporting the men who
refuse 20 pledge themselves and our club
will wager any amount that not one man IN
this district who refuses TO pledge himself
will ever be elected. We are sick and tired
OF halfway promises, and we now propose
to put in our time and money TO see what
we can do.

Prendergast, the convicted assassin of
Mayor Harrison, repudiates the idea of in
sanity made by his lawyers. In a violent
harangue to the court, which he persisted
in making in spite Of the efforts of bailiffs
to repress him, he said that unless the
court prolonged the date of execution be-
yond April 6, which happened to be his
birthday, he objected to any delay of the
inquiry. and was prepared to proceed. The
plea Of insanity, he declared, had again

In an article about eggs, in the New
York Tribune. the following appears:
The best eggs in this market are re-
ceived mainly from Indiana, Iowa, Missouri
and Kansas. They are known to the trade
as Western eggs, and their highest grades
always command the highest prices.
The eggs from Indiana and other States
of the West are best because the hens
are fed with good sound corn or corn
meal instead Of the mixed foods and ref
use which are given to poultry in States
which do not raise corn. If the duty
should be retained on eggs. more and more
would the product of Indiana supply the
great New York market. With the duty
removed, Canada, which has cheaper trans
portation, will get the market back. Eggs
are very cheap now because the people In
New York and other Eastern cities can
not buy this article of food as literally
as they were able to do a year or two
years ago. With tens of thousands of peo-
pie idle and as many more on reduced wag-
es people who live upon daily wages can
not purchase food as expensive as eggs
Thus does the evil of free trade reach pro-
ducers and consumers.

the census year was 505.546, while the total
average of s275 per hand.
The bulletin also shows that there was
an increase of the capital employed over
1880 of 12O.76 per cent; 65.74 per cent. in the
number of hands employed: 13113 per cent.
in wages paid; 47T per cent. in the cost
Of materials and 6927 per cent. in the value
of products. In 1850 the wages per hand
for all employees was $SI7.S6. but in 1890 the
average per hand was s4s4.7O-an increase of
slS6.S4, or 1872 per cent. Here is an argu-
ment for protection that cannot be gain
said, because it is self-eSdent. During the
period that this gain has been made in
wages in this country they have remained
| stationary in Great Britain.
The increase in gain OF products was lit
tie over half the increase IN wages In the
meantime the decline In the values of goods
manufactured has been nearly 20 per cent,
so that the ss,O54,O0oOOO of products in 1890
would have cost s11 .075 Oo0, 900 in 1880. Again,
In 1880 the hands earned enough wages TO
purchase IA per cent. Of the things pro-
duced that year, while in 1890 they earned
enough to purchase "a per cent. Of them.
These facts show that the great gain Of the
| decade has been made by the people en-
| ployed by the great manufacturing indus
| tries. Their wages have been increased
| nearly 40 per cent, and the price of the
| goods they turn out, of which they are
| large consumers. have fallen 90 per cent.

CHARGES ALIENATION,
Mr.. Groves Wants Damages for His
Wffc's Affections.

Charles c. Wilkison has been made the
defendant in suit filed by John W.
Groves. who asks damages amounting to
$4,000 because Of the alleged alienation by
the defendant Of the affections of the plain
tins wife, Lille May Groves.
Mr.. Groves states in his declaration that
he married his wife August Q, 1856, her
maiden name being Grub. and that they
lived together until the 18th Of last July.
But the defendant, says AR. Groves, envy
ing the happy condition OF the latter, con-
trived wrongfully, wickedly and unjustly
to injure him by depriving him of the COM
fort fellowship, society and assistance of
his wife. alternating and destroying her af-
lection for him and leading her astray.
Such wrong doings, asserts Mr.. Groves,
commenced September Is, 1856, but wholly
unknown to him.
The defendant, charges Mr.. Groves, in
duced Mrs. Groves to leave her husband
house January /, 1898, and go with and to
the defendant, who also, further charges
Mr.. Groves, assisted and encouraged Mrs.
Groves to institute divorce proceedings, oc-
casioning the plaintiff great distress of
mind and great damage In his credit and
business affairs.

crossing Wednesday night, will probably

that the railroad men were shifting freight
cars at the time the unfortunate man was
killed, and the cars which passed over him
were detached from the engine at the
time. There was no one present at the in
quest who witnessed the accident The OFF,
GERS have been unable to find any friends
of the deceased, and, although he was killed
on one of the dangerous crossings 1t was
stated at the morgue this morning thai the
railroad company would probably allow
his body to be put In a paupers grave.
