This shows that ,L" cutting down in the amount of moraS sent abroad for foreign production, has been mostly in the line of luxrrios and articles not absolutely needed. fo. the value of the importations has os above indicated, been largely reduead while that for sugar alone has been materially increased.
 Speaking of the matter of imnorto- tions and the reduction in that line i, is interesting to observe that there has been as strongly marked falling oT in the importations of people as in ST. ticles of merchandise. The immior,. tion into this country during the year just about to end has been unusually light, being nearly 100000 less than last year. A statement was recently made by an officer at the port of New York which indicated that the pumbar of people coming into this country from abroad to seek homes was actual. ly less than the number who are leav. ing to make homes in other parts of the world. The arrival of immigrants for the year will be little more than 3O0,0OO. This will be a smaller nun. Der than in any year since 1879. The immigrants since 1879 number about 100000 reaching in one year almost s0O,0OO; so that the present year with only 100000 people from abroad pre-. sents an unusual incident i9 the his tory of immigration into the United States. This is probably largely due to the general depression in business, which was quickly felt by those hay. ing to do with the bringing in of immi. grants. Toledo Blade.

had once played in a band back in the states; and, although the tuba man volunteered to head the procession and do the very best he could, the commit tee, after considerable discussion, con cluded the music might be rather flat without drum, and as no drum could be secured the procession must march without music. The tuba man was en- gagged to play a bass accompaniment to Jack Abrams and the majors open ing song, and for several days practiced industriously on My Country, 'Tis of Thee"
 The parade was success in every particular. The absence of music was scarcely observable, for the ringing cheers of the merry people as they marched through the town would have drowned the notes of any band of or dinary power. Mrs. Porter, although not so young or handsome as the pie lures we see of that noted character, marched at the head of the procession, representing the Goddess of Liberty, dressed In as gorgeous an array of stars and stripes as her limited supply of old skirts could produce. She was 'ac, corded royal honors, and marched with the naughty step of queen.
 The first number of the stand pro gramme was announced, and Abrams and the major made a simultaneous bow which they had acquired only after the most careful practice. 1t took them but few moments to properly pitch the tune, and then they broke forth in glad song, closely followed by the mellow notes of the tuba. The reading of the Fourth Reader selection by Pete Craven was very creditable in the light of his introductory statement that it had been several years since he had read anything, even a newspaper. The banjo solo was omitted for the reason that while tuning up Big Sam had broken the most important string on the instrument, and there was not another one in the camp.
 Then came the event of the day, the oration by Judge Ramsay. That hon. ored and honorable official stepped to the front of the platform in deliber- ate manner, ran Iris left hand into the front of his vest, calmly and impress sively surveyed the great audience in silence for few moments and began:
 "Feller Citizens: Had the outgush- ing eloquence of Apollo, the chain lightnin' tongue of a Mercurysthe win nin' grace an innocent unconsarn of a Venus standin' in quiet rumination on her adamantine base, could not suffi- ciently accord my thanks to the wisely discriminating committee of honored citizens who selected me as the oratori- cal luminary of this conspicuous occa- sion. [Applause.l Hence I will re- press my gratitude and proceed to my | theme.
 "The subjeck around which I shall try to twine the laurel wreaths of elo- quence on this conspicuous occasion is one which would rouse the fires of pat erotism in the quiverless breast of a ] marble statute, and cause its usullys

 He ceased his patriotic speech and ground at his tobacco with an earnest ness which indicated how deeply the loyal emotion, of his soul had been stirred.
 "'S'posin' we should decide to cele- oldGS, odli JuobiSS of the peace, ''w'at's your idee of how it should be did? Wat sort of paterotic bill O fare would you dish up for the occasion?"

 The compliment paid to the judges oratorical talent completely won him. and he followed Gabe's enthusiastic utterances with speech that effectu- ally settled the matter of a celebration. A meeting was called for that evening in front of the stage office, and, with a unanimity seldom observed in a public meeting, programme was drawn up

day; largely depended on his inndfittidGai' efforts, determined that a large flag should head themsrching column, and his consternation can be imagined when he learned that not another shred of white material could be pro- cured for love or gold dust. It had all been consumed in the manufacture of small individual flags. -
 But Gabe's bump of Ingenuity ~Sas of true Yankee growth. There was but one woman in the camp, the wife of pioneer who had dared the dangers of the plains in the early sos and crossed from the states. behind an OK team with her husband, and toward her. cabin Gabe somewhat reluctantly bent, his steps. To his embarrassment he found that her husband was absent at work in his claim, for it was. through him that he intended to tsansnct. the business upon which he came. When told by the wife that the man was ab- sent he contemplated retreat, but re- alization of the great responsibilities which rested upon him nerved him to action, and he made known his errand.
 He wanted to purchase a couple of her old white skirts to aid in the con struction of the glorious stars and stripes. -...
 To his intense delight she expressed her willingness to contribute that much to the cause of liberty. Nay, more. She had in her rag bag an old red fan nel petticoat which had performed its mission and been retired, and if Gabc would furnish the thread she would not only contribute the material, but would cut out and make the flag. He muttered something about the s, 'rit of the Daughters of the Revolution being yet alive and kicking, and hastened to the store to secure the thread and com mend Mrs. Porter's patriotism to all whom he should chance to meet:
 The matter of music greatly worried the committee of arrangements. The only musical instruments in the camp were Big Sam's banjo and an old bat tered brass tuba owned by a man who

Revenues Falling on Enormously This
 Year.
 When the figures are footed up on June 90 and the fiscal year of 1S93-4 has ended its record will be a most un- usual and painful one. The receipts of the government will be found to be nearly or quite 5000, 900 below its actual and necessary expenditures, the importations nearly or quite S200, ,0OO,- 900 less than in the preceding year, and the expectations more than S10O,- 100000 below high water mark In the matter of government receipts there has been something of a falling off in internal revenue, but the loss is large ly in the matter of custom receipts. The iInportations of merchandise, which in the preceding year were SSe6,- 0o0,O00, will this year be about S66G,- 100000.
 This will bring the importations down to lower figure than in any fiscal year since 1886. Indeed there have been but two fiscal years since 1881 in which the importations have been as light as this year which is about to end. A part of this falling off is due to the general depression in business, the unwillingness of people to expend dollar for anything they do not absolutely need, and it thus comes more apparent that this coun- try is capable of producing nearly ev- erything that its people do need if they only chose to patronize home indus tries. It is remarkable fact that the importation of articles which come in :rec of duty has only fallen off 15 per
