Footsore and weary, one autumn
evening, an old man, lad, and dog
arrived IN Nottingham. where they put
up at common clearinghouse. They
constituted a travelling show, and,
after performing all day in the streets
of Reading. they had walked over
here-e distance Of ten or twelve miles.
The old man seemed broken In
health, and suffered from a severe
cough; but on this particular evening
he was worse than usual, for he had
got chill. and was glad to lay down
arrival he complained of feeling very
cold and thirsty, and the lad procured
him some tea. which they both enjoyed.
"Grimmy"-or to give him his full
name, Grimwald, the dog, was not for
gotten, for the trio were inseparable.
and soon afterwards they all retired to
rest.
During the night the old man be-
came very feverish, coughed incessant-
ly. and complained of pain in his
chest, but Jimmy, the lad. did ell he
could for him, and sat up most of the
night with him.
In the morning, poor old "Spangles'
"a name dear to many children
throughout England-was no better,
and when the doctor was summoned,
and had examined him, he told tho
landlady that he was very Ill, suffering
from an attack of Inflammation Of tho
lungs, and that he feared it would go
hard with him.
"Spangles" recognized his own dam
ger, and calling the lad to, him, said:
Jimmy, my boy, you've been a good
led to me, and I fear the show will
soon be closed foreverl Sit thee down
beside me, lad, as have something 10
tell thee" When the lad had sat down,
''Spangles' proceeded:

my father died when was only Q
boy, and my mother married again

being an ill-natured, cruel man, who

to bear his cruelty any longer, l ran
away from home and joined travelling
circus.

AN ADVOCATE OF TARIFF REFORM.
In concluding, he defined his position in these
earnest words:
II stand ready to support any reasonable
measure for tariff reform framed within the lines
and based upon the principles which 1 have here
partly indicated and which were fully set forth
in my speech in opening the political campaign
in Brooklyn on September 10, 1892. l stand
to-day where stood then. l have nothing to add
and nothing to retract.
Il will cheeriully vote for the Mills bill and
join with you in making many material reduc
tons therein. l am ready to waive all minor
differences OF details which do not involve a
question OF principle.
Having spoken to-day especially upon the
income tax feature of this bill, reserve the
expression of my views until the close of the
discussion.
MIR. President, this is an important crisis in
tae history of the Democratic party. The failure
of tariff revision at this time means the demorali-
cation il not the division and annihilaton OF our
party. Moreover it m cans, as we believe, injury
to the best interests OF the country. Let those
who insist upon injecting into this bill this odious
and uuneeded un Democratic feature of an income
taxa relic of war legislaton-pause and reflect
upon the possible consequences Of their uhwar-
rantable demands.
PARTY RISKS INVOLVED.
They should realize that it means the loss O.
| the control Of this Senate, now nearly equally
divided between the two great parties: it means
the loss of the next House Of Representatives ii
means the loss OF the electoral votes of New FORK
| New Jersey, Connecticut and probably every
Northern state, and, finally, it means the loss OF
| the next Presidency and all that it implies.

ity; bald and grey eagles flock to the
vicinity for the purpose of preying on
them. The water on the Cecil county
side is about ten feet deep, and by It's
being clear the fish are readily seen BIZ
their winged enemies.
A grey eagle saw rockfish in the
water and bounced upon him, sinking
his talons deep into the sides of the fish.
When the bird attempted to rise he found
the load more than he could carry. He
could not release his hold either. Finally
he was dragged under water and
drowned.
The current carried the eagle and the
fish into fishpot. where their bodies
were found, with the hold of the eagle
unrelaxed. The fish weighed sixteen
pounds, and the bird measured six feet
from tip to tip of the wings. FL. w.

DRESS CREPES
AND CREPONS.

If you haven't followed the
unfolding of the crinkly, creepy
idea in Dress Stufs you've no
idea what wonderful weaves
have been involved and how
the dyer's art has lent beauties
heretofore undreamed of in
such goods.
There are straight crinkles,
crooked crinkles, diagonal bill
lows of delightful roughness,
waffle patterns-clean cut,
airy almost as if woven music
could be chilled to crispness;
there are zig-zags, flashes,
Jumps and bumps and dots
and dashes tangled in the
merest films of substance.
And such color plays! Irri

able as the soft light of an au-

its goSds can be sold more
cheaplytthhssu Nose made by men
who must earn their living. This
seems like unfair rivalry but on the
other hand, the convicts cost the tax
payers a great deal of money, and it
is only right that they should be
made self supporting, if possible !;
besides which it is public policy 10
teach the criminals trades by which
they can make an honest living when
set free. So there are two sides to
