A Famous Wine.

The Emperor Williams present to
Prince Bismarck consisted of dozen
bottles of the famous Steinberg cabinet
of the great comet year, which is the
finest and rarest wine in the imperial
cellars and remarkable both for its fra
GRANGE and for its strength. The gift is
worthy of the occasion, for all such wine
Is absolutely priceless, and 1t is prob
ably only to be found in the cellars Of
the emperor and of the Duke Of Luxem-
burg, except for any stray bottles which
may yet be hidden away in few coun-
try houses. The old Emperor William
sent half a dozen bottles of the same
wine as a present to the queen in 1887,
and it was brought over by the En-
peror Frederick, then crown prince,
himself. Fine Rhenish wines get more
and more scarce every year, for there
has not been a really first rate vintage

SENATOR VOORHEES,
Answers q Letter on the Wool Ques-
tion Showing upihe Sham ofPro-
tectlon.

In response to a letter received from
prominent Chicago business man asking him
about his attitude on the wool schedule, Dit.
Voorhees, sent the following reply:
wAsHINaros, April 81, 1884,
"My Dear Sir: / have your favor OF the
9th inst. making inquiry in regard TO my
views as to the benefit to be derived from the
repeal Of import duty on wool.
First, il is my understanding that very
few carpet wools are produced In this coun'
try, and that they aggregate about three
fourths Of all the woo;s imported. Ifthis be
true, then as to carpet wools there could be
no disadvantage, and must be certain ad-
vantage to carpet manufacturers Of the coun-
try and the consumers of their goods.
Second, am further advised that the
largest proportion OF fine woods imi orted in
this country are woods which cannot be pro-
ducsd here. owing to climatic conditions
and that they are essential to the manufac-
ture in the production Of fine fabrics. If this
be true they should also be admitted free OF
duty. This would leave but small propor-
tion OF imported WOODS Wnlcn compete a' tne
present time with domestic wool.
at is also manifested to me that the fail
ufs of our wool growers to realize aprofit on
wool is almost entirely due to over produo-
tion, both iu this country and in other wool
producing countries of the world. have
no doubt that in the year following the pass
age of free wool tariff bill, the price Of do
mestic wool would advance, unless the great
over production in various other countries
should continue to increase. 1t is manifest
ly absurd 10 suppose that the eleven cents
duty on wool has at any time for many years
past been of service to the grower, and tie
prices, which have ruled within the last year
as now as ~ cents per pound in theincrease,
prove my ;ssertion.

I'D. w. VooRHEEs."

His Reward.

Redwood, little town south Of here,
is all agog, not only In colored circles,
but also among the white brethren.
The trouble is that q certain colored
brother who takes an active part in re-
hgious circles, and in whom his asso-
ciates have placed implicit confidence,
has been detected having piece of
sticky fly paper in his hat when he went
to take up the collection at the church.
All the coins that we're dropped upon
the fly paper staid there, and it is amaz-
ing how the big pieces crowded the little
ones off. When the audience had been
solicited, this smooth individual would
advance toward the pulpit and turn his
hat upside down over that Of another
who had been soliciting the audience on
the other side Of the house. All the
coins that dropped belonged to the
church, and that which remained in the
hat was to remunerate him for the
good he had done in the blessed work

Snowman Monk Pelted With Fl 1t.

A religious riot in miniature has taken
place at Nantes. Some Catholic youths
were passing through fair when they
caught sight of booth labeled "Sanc-
tum Sanctorum." The Snowman was
dressed in the rough robes and cowl of a
Capuchin monk and professed to show
inside several relics or curiosities, IN
cluding the apple which tempted Eve
and the whale which swallowed Jonah.
The youths, who were about 200 strong,
called on the profane Barnum to desist
from his mockeries, but he only re-
doubled his patter and directed more at
tention to his show. A neighboring
orange merchant had to bear the conse-
quences of all this, for his stand was pill
LACED by the Catholics, who pelted the
Snowman with the fruit of the Hesperides

had really to use as sanctuary for his

That pushes against the pane.
There are choking pillows of snow that cast
Their eddying depths alnain
And whirl with cry through the falling

When thy secrets shall be read.
Alasl for the aching hearts at home,
With their sickening weight of dread.
Alasl for tho one who will not come
Till the SHOWS give up their dead.

many who think it cute to make eyes and re-
turn signs made by strangers, feeling that
such attention is bit of personal homage,
