NEWARK, y. j.. October Ga letter has
been received 10y AsseInblyman Moses Bige-
low of this city from Senator Mcpherson,
dated New York. October =, saying:
Il am now forced, however, to say that
must not be considered candidate for
a fourth term in the Senate. The condition
OF my health is to myself and family a
matter to be considered and 1 have decid-
ed to take long rest from the excitement
of political and official labor Of every kind
For period OF eighteen years have sery-
the people OF New Jersey in the Senate Of
the United States faithfully and diligently
and with all my ability. and during this
long period have taken an active part in all
the important legislation enacted by Con-
gress, and j am prUGd to be able TO say
thai none OF my votes there given have
been condemned or even untaVorsIbly crit
icl'ed by the generous people Of the state.
For the last four years the sessions have
been almost continuous. and By reason OF
long confinement in the Senate cha amber the
strain upon me physically has been quite as
great as can bear and prompts me- to say
that for the present 1 cannot assume the
responsibilities of an active, exciting politi-
cal struggle. which the situation in New
Jersey seems to make necessary to ensure
complete success"

TARIFF QUESTIONS.
Secretary Carlisle Expected to De
eide Some This Afternoon.

1t is stated at the Treasury Department
that Secretary Carlisle very likely will de-
eide this afternoon as to when the sections
of the wool schedule of the new tariff act
relating to goods other than those gener-
ally known as manufactures Of wool will
so into effect. 1t is probable that the Sec
retary will define his position in a telegram
to be sent to collectors generally or to the
board Of general appraisers at New York.
The Secretary, 1T IS understood. will hold
that the entire woolen schedule will go into
effect January /, 1895 thus sustaining the
New York board and the collector at Bal
tlmore.
1t is also learned that the Secretary to-
day In a letter to Commissioner Miller of
the internal revenue bureau will decide
that In view of the irsurmountable diff
culties In the way of pu, ing into operation
the free alcohol section Of the new act
nothing further shall be done in the matter
until Congress meets again IN December.

 Failed.
 TlIe new deputy sheriff came into the office and laid the warrant nn the desk; then he went and sat down hv the fire place and gave q deep sigh.
 After awhile the sheriff came in. putting with the exertiUn of climbing the steps.
 "acllo"' he said Got back, did you:''
 "Yes, answered the deputy, without much spirit.
 Did you find your man:''
 'Oh. yes. found him"
 Where is he?''
 Well, I found him, but didn't git him.
 ''Got away, did hep
 "No; no partic'lar. was just goin to tell you how it was When got out there, his wife said Ikc was over in the clearin. l went over there an found him.
 ''I says. 'Howdy. Ike:'
 He says, 'Howdy.'
 "We talked awhile about things, an says, Ike, got a little writ here for you on account O that fightin.'
 ne ssAlu ne IoNSu nay Dt lnat WAS what I wanted.
 We talked on awhile longer, an then I said it was time We was goin, but about thnt time Ike set down agin a stumk
 'He said he was tired.
 "I ordered him to git up an talked with him an reasoned with him. an then took holt of him. You know how big he is:''
 What did he do then?"
 "Oh, he didn't do nothin- He just continued. as the feller says, to set there. couldn't "a raised him with derrick. II tell you what I'll do. continued the deputy, with some show of rcsOlu tion. If you say so. I'll take about four men an a team an go back there this evening to sec if he's settin there yet. "-Chicago Record

by Observer Percival Lowell, who has also had the good fortune to see the Martian polar SHOWS melt and flow northward, giving rise to the theory that they flood the planets south tenn perate zone. At the polar cap several mountain peaks have been discerned.
 The canals discovered by the Italian astronomer Schiapareli are among the most interesting features of Mars. Their regularity Is so pronounced that many students of the planet believe that they are the great waterways of the planets people. They intersect at points, like the railroads of the earth, and it is believed that they may be used for transportation and irrigation. As Mars is older and moro parched than the earth. the people. If people there be. would need all the irri- gation they could get in order to sustain such life as exists on the earth. Observer Lowell has counted 12 of these canals and expects to make more interesting discoveries when the planet approaches nearer to the earth. During the Martian winter the canals are not conspicuous but as summer approaches they swell in size as if filled by the melting snows of the polar regions.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1894-08-31

white but no less sturdy womcn-strap- ping damsels they have been termed showed themselves in similar lines to possible employers in another part.
 It has always been held that it was allowable to indulge more freely in business prevarications at fair time than at other seasons, and Goldsmith, in The Vicar of Wakefield" has told how shrewd were the dealers at English fairs ill his day. A story of recent trick cry at an Irish fair has it that q farmer who had a COW to sell fastened a false tail to the animal, her own caudal ap- bondage having been lost through acci- dent This trick was its own undOinG, however. for while all the other COWS at the fair fought the flies furiously with their tails this poor beast never moved hers. This singular circumstance was noticed by the purchaser in time to en- able him to call the sale of. The own CT. ill his t.lk with the buyer. had de- clarcd that he hoped that if he were ly- ing about the COW ''thc two at home ill the cradle might be burned to ashes be- fore he got back" This ingenious oath taker confided to friend afterward that he ran no risk on using this for mula, for he had placed two sods ill the cradle before starting to the fair ito take the whom out of" his oath. The business of the day at an Irish or Eng fish fair is practically done by 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and then the merry making begins ill earnest. Of coursC the Irish lads and lassies begin their pleasures after a more lightsome fashion than do the English and sometimes wind it up more uproariOuSly. Dancing is always feature, of course, and dancing light Is a great accomplish ment with the daughters of Erin. It was an Irish versitier who wrote, Dance light. for my heart it lies under your feet, love"
 The German fair is called 'jahr- markt," and tho old oriental idea ob- tains largely ill its conduct. The Ger man ''masch," a mixture. possesses many of the characteristics of the Amer ican county fair-that, is, it is gath ering of the people for amusement. and all sorts of cheap and simple pleas ures are afforded, as merry go rounds and the like. besides sC-Ie not so inno- cent, but the only exhibitions are of the side show variety. and no prizes are offered for big vegetables or fat hogs. At no fairs outside of America arc there contests of equine speed In fact, races of horses arc almost unknown at old world fairs. hut in this country n fair without either trotting or running matches could hardly be expected to be success. CHARLES APpLEBEE.
