1t is not likely, predicts Frank
Leslie's Weekly, that there will be any
further trouble with the Chinese now
in this country on account of the regis
tration law. The Chinese Six Com
panies in San Francisco have issued a
notice ordering all their members to
register under the new law, and this
action will no doubt be largely in
fluenced in determining Cinnamon gen.
orally to comply with its provisions.

One of the most characteristic anec,
dotes ever told of England's greatest
man since Pitt is recorded in Mr.. Small
ley's cable letter to the New York Tri-
bune. 1t brings out Mr.. Gladstone's
courage and grit. When his eyes were
examined at Hawarden not long ago
one was found to be sightless from an
old cataract and the other seriously
impaired from the formation of a new
cataract. The nerve displayed by this
veteran of eighty-four in demanding
the removal of the old cataract then
and there, so that he could have one
good eye while the other was becom-
ing useless, was phenomenal. The
surgeon lacked the courage required
for performing the operation, but the
incident stands as luminous illustra-
ton of the invincible strength of Mr..
Gladstone's character 1t Iustifes Mr..
Smalley's conclusion that it is not in
the Grand Old Mans nature to accept
defeat, or to finch from any conflict,
and that he will fight to the end. He
is true to his name, which in the Low
land Scotch means hawk and stone.
Like hawk, he has scared with con
slant poise above the low levels Of
English politics; and in infexibility
of moral purpose and in naked majesty
of character he is like the matchlesl
granite of the Scotch mountains.

A SONG OF HER LOVE.

And bath your brows in light;
o velvet valleys, soft between,
Dream gently 70 the night;
For she hath said 'T love-" and she
Hath given all that love to me
o birds, with thrilling throats,
Glad let your music be;
o rivers, where the splendor floats,
Flow singing TO the sea
For she hath said, 'I love-" and she
Hath made that love crown for mel

The JOY that comes apace;
Your roses for her footsteps sweet
Your sunlight for her face
For she hath said II love-" and she

FRUIT DEALERS AFFECTED.

Among the business interests that
the free traders claim are not az
fected by the tariff changes is that of
the dealer in fruit. They say that his
business will prosper whether he is
selling American fruits or foreign
fruits; IL does not matter to him where
the fruit comes from, because the people
Will buy it when they want fruit.
That is the theory. Now for the con-
dition.
was talking to a fruit dealer who
has a very prominent stand in this
town. He also handles the best of
fruit and offers it for sale in attractive
packages, thereby securing good trade
and good value for his fruit.
Il asked him: 'How is the frui.
trade this year?'
very poor, sir. very poor" he an
swered. The railroad troubles have
stopped our supplies of California fruit,
of which we now have very little, and
the price has gone up. When fruit is
plenty we sell a great deal more, and
though our profits on each package
may be somewhat less, still our aggre-
gate profits are larger"
Il suppose business will be all right
again after the strike is ended" l said.
Well" he replied, 1T will be as
good as it was, perhaps, before the
strike, but the fruit business is not
nearly as good now as it was a couple
of years ago"
''How is that?" l asked.
''Well, SIR" he replied, 81 have been
democrat and always voted straight
democratic ticket for twenty-five years,
until the last election. When we had
a republican administration business
continued steady right along ever since
l have been in the fruit business.
Sometimes it was little better than
at others, but it was always good. I
am not politician: am not speaker;
but know that my business has been
affected since we have had the change.
/ read the papers and l am disguised
with the doings of democrats. | see
that every single thing that has been
done by President Cleveland and his
cab inet has been made mess of, and
now we have this terrible strike upon
our hands. Under republicans every
thing went smoothly: they knew how
to govern. Under democrats every
thing has been in mess. You know
that people cannot buy fruit when they
are out of work, and they have had
precious hard times to get any work
during the last year. Not only have
my sales fallen Off but l have to sell
closer. l have to be content with a
very small profit and sometimes with
no profit at all. because people of all
classes cannot afford to, and will not,
pay as much money for fruit now as
they used to. l am republican here
after. 3. THINKEN.
