Two Standards.

Jokes of a "practicar' order are usually
dangerous in one way or another, but a
story is told of one harmless joke which il
Illustrated the power of imagination in an
amusing way some years ago.
At the time when most of the North river
sloops came in at Coenties slip the Levant,
a packet from Fishkill, anchored off the
Battery to wait for a change of tide. A
passenger who had been for the first time
in his life on a sailing vessel, and who had
been anxiously begging to steer the craft,
not noticing that the vessel was at anchor,
was told at last that he might take the
helm.
He obeyed the with a~lacrity
and listened to the captains cautions in re-
gard to keeping clear of other vessels, etc.
and then the captain went below.
The tide was rushing by at a great rate,
and the amateur helmsman felt much graft
fed with the progress his craft was making
IS he looked down at the water.
In time, however, an investigation of the
surrounding landscape led to a slight feel
ing of dissatisfaction on his part, which
steadily increased as time went on. At last
the captain appeared again and inquired
gravely how he was getting on.

bious smile, 81 appear to be gettin on first

The Turkeys of Tiffin.

Friend Kimmel, writing from the
Heidelberg university, at Tifin, O..
says that there seems to be an analogy
existing between our present free trade
Democracy and two old time turkey
rappers that used to reside in that vi
cinity. One of the trappers built a pen
and succeeded in catching three fine
wild turkeys. But while putting them
into the pen INT got away from him,
so he foolishly threw down the two he
had in his hands to run after the one
that got away. The other trapper, see
ing the race, exclaimed, run, Bottle,
runi" But Bottle failed to run fast
enough, and 20 lost all his turkeys.
In like manner our free trade friends
want to throw down our large, certain
and profitable home market to risk ac-
quiring a small share in the sometimes
Improbable and always uncertain so
called markets of the world" The only
difference seems to be that Of the two
the free trader is the bigger fool, for
tbs trapper risked losing only 662s per
cent in order to catch 33L per cent,
while the free trader risks losing 90 per
cent in order to acquire the mcager and
uncertain 2 per cent.

a GENUINE HERO.
Though Weak and AiIing, He Did the

An unprotected" Industry.

As the people employed in this coun-
try at the various branches of the build
ing trade are assured that, as there is no
duty on finished houses any more than
there is a duty on paved streets, their in
dustry is one that the free traders claim
to be unprotected" and neither their
wages nor employment are influenced
by our protective tariffs, it may be of
interest to them, now that their employ
ment in building new factories has
ceased under the threat of free trade, to
quote from a summary Of the general re
port on the census of England and
Wales made by The Engineer Of Lon
don. This paper says of the building
trades:
1.-THE number of persons thus employ
ed shows an increase for the 10 years of
only 81 per cent, whereas in the pre-
vious decade the rise was q per cent.
The absolute number in 1891 was $780,
ee6. The extremely small increase of a
little ove $4,000 in the building trades
was accompanied by an actual decline in
respect to the industries which supply
the building materials. The falling off
was only Is per cent, but that there
should be any decrease at all is a matter
to be regretted, an increase being the
proper result"
There is probably no trade in this
country, unless we call farming a trade,
that receives greater benefits from the
building of new factories, factory towns
and the various operations connected
with the Inauguration and maintenance
of the industries developed in this
try by protection than the building
trade.-American Economist.

Making Their Islands Grow.

Owners of land among the Thousand is
lands have a way of making their islands
grow, not in numbers, but in size. An al
most bare rock of small dimensions is thus
expanded into an island covered with veg
citation and having space enough for a
house of comfortable size. The thing is
accomplished by riprapping, pile driving
and the importation of earth. The work
is often done gradually, year by year, IN
til the landowner has made space enough
for his house, and after that the island is
extended as the need arises.-Exchange.

Spring.

Spring, gentle spring, is here at last
The snow has gone away.
No more we feel the winters blast
The spring has come to stay.
The small boy, with his heart a-thump,
Determination grim,
Into the river takes a jump
And has his first spring swim.
The clerk, with figures in a row,
Now counts his meager hoard
And wonders where he'd better go
For two weeks country boards
And every married man is sad
To think hat he is broke.
Because his darling wife has had
To buy that new spring cloak.

AND FOR AMERICANS.

Theories and Falseboods Per1ncated His En-
tire Tariff speech-A Clever Exposure of
His bubbles and Prevarications-His
Vulgar Abuse RecoiIs Upon Himself.
The rabid remarks made by Senator
Voorhees, during his opening debate
upon the tariff bill in the senate bear
strong earmarks Of Cl~evelandism, and
many opinions have been expressed that
the senator's speech was at least prompt
cd by the president, even if not actual
ly inspired by the White House tenant.
Such words as ''greed, ''stealthiness, "
crime" ''selfishness" and the like
always abound in the speeches and ad-
dresses Of the president when he dis
cusses a protective tariff. They are al
most as frequent as the "I's" and
Mes that have now become a part
of American history, and the ~tautology
of the expressions referred to in the
speech of Senator Voorhees, affords good
reason for the suspicion that it was. be-
fore delivery, submitted to the approval
of Me.

tariff taxes that are now paid to the ex-
tent of $76, $40, 900 annually ION the

ton of the laboring men, women and
children of the United States will be

VICTORY FOR THE STRIKERS.
They Cannot he Punished for Walk
Ing on Fifth Avenue.

The majority OF the boss talors in
Fifth avenue have, by combination en-
deavored to break up the tailors' union.
and have reduced the wages of the
workmen. The members OF the tailors
union, believing that the wages offered
them were not sufficient to compensate
them for their services. months ago left
their various places of employment and
have been on strike ever Since.
The union members have endeavored
to persuade these non-union workmen
order that they may receive proper rate
Of wages. Ire bosses secured an in
junction from Judge Beach preventing
the members OF the union, some six
teen hundred men, from patrolling in
front OF their various stores on Fifth
avenue.
The union men were served with this
injunction, and lately great many OF
the members have had occasion to pass
in search OF employment at different
stores and the bosses have kept the
Supreme Court busy with applications
to punish them. upon the ground that
they were guilty OF contempt OF court
In violating the injunction.
Judge Alfred Steckler in each case
defnded the workmen, and contended
that they had right to walk on Firth
avenue as long as they were orderly
and peaceable. and that no court could
prevent them from walking upon the
streets OF thisc ity.
Judge Lawrence to-day decided every
case In favor of the strikers, refusing
to punish any Of them for contempt of
