A Wonder Stone.

In his mail this morning Secretary Smith
had letter from William Fogleman of
Homestead, Pa, says the Washington
Star. Mr.. Fogleman is doubtless a for
elgner of recent adoption in this body poll
tic, and in the innocence and freshness OF
his conception of the paternal attributes
of this form of government he has turned
if not for consolation in his hour of trial
and spiritual depression. Mr.. Fogleman
has been, and will doubtless remain, the
loser of a quarter of a dollar. The man
ner in which he met with this affection
he narrates in his letter to the secretary.
He was subscriber to a family news
paper, and among the many and varied
advertisements in this highly moral sheet
was one setting forth the merits of a
new method of showing by means of what
was called wonder stone. The adVer-
tisement, a copy of which Mr.. Fogie-
man Enclosed to Mr.. Smith, which mag
netized Mr.. Fogleman's quarter of a do;-
lar, pictures the distress of shaving with
razor, dwelling on the cuts, pulls, skips
and scrapes, as well as the excess ana
taste of the lather that gets into the
mouth, nostrils and ears. Then the pic
ture turns to the comfort. the delight,
the painless ecstacy of the wonder

cents necessary to pay for the wonder
stone and waited for it's coming. Weeks
have passed and the magic implement or
relief has not yet been sent to him.
Now Mr. Fogleman invokes the strong
right arm of the government to right the
ishment upon the authors of his discom-
future and loss.

Life. She was rich, but of rather niggard-

various hints to induce the old lady 10
provide the allowance" which they looked
for at Jobs of that kind. At last one man
said: What a fine collection of pictures
you have, Mrs. Barker"
YES said the old lady, "but I think
they would look much better if the frames
were cleaned up a bit; but it would cost
me too much to get them done, I'm
afraid"
oh" said the man, at wouldn't cost
you much. l think about a quart of
whisky would do the job. Whisky is a
fine thing for cleaning picture frames
Would it really?" said the lady well.
l viii get you the whisky. Indeed, l have
some in the house, l know"
The whisky was brought and the lady
retired; the men said they would send
for her when the frames were done. Left
to themselves they were highly delighted
at the success of their ruse and lost no
time in commencing to clean the frames
with soap and water, and to drink the
whisky at intervals. At length, when botn
whisky and pictures were finished. they
called the lady to pronounce her opin-
ion on their handiwork.
We'll, how do you like them?" asked one
of the men.
"Oh, delightful" said the old dame; Won

We Are Export Manufacturers.
From the Baltimore Sun Dem.).

The figures show that with free raw
materials we are fast adding a foreign
market to the home market protectionists
value so highly, and wish so resolutely
to prey upon. The exports of manufac-
lures in August were worth $40. $50, 924, a
gain of S2S00,000 over August. 1894. In the
eight months ended with August, the total
of exported manufactures was $129, 440, S64,
a gain of 81, $3.50, 723 over the like period of
1894 If the rate of gain indicated is kept
up during the calendar year, there will
have been an increase of $1,000, 600 in ex-
ports of manufactures, or largely in ex-
cess of the record of any preceding year
in our history. 1t would be $37, 000, 600 great
er than the like exports in 1892 and 1898,
when the Mckinley act was in force. Our
workmen get employment in manufacture
ing for foreign countries, and the demand
for their labor and their wages are in
creased by this inroad into foreign mar
kets. The protectionist policy is one Of
abstention from foreign markets. The
wish is to control the home market, where
wages can be dictated to workmen and
prices to consumers. But the democratic
policy is to add to the employment got
ten in manufacturing for the home mar
ket, the employment to be had in manu-
featuring for the foreign market. -.

Is the New Army Rine a FaiIuref

The rag-Jorgensen rife. after a Compel
tive test with several other rides. was
adopted by the war department as the
standard rifle OF the army. The govern-
ments gun factories were set 10 work at
manufacturing them for the troops. The
factories are at present working upon
fun time turning out the guns. As soon
as the new rifles began to find their way
into the hands Of the troops, there were
complaints that they were not all that was
claimed for them. When the navy decided
TO adopt new rifle, the naval board re-
fused the Krag-JOrgensen and adopted
the Lee rife. Notwithstanding the desir-
ability of having the two branches of the
governments service for war armed with
rifles Of the same pattern, in order that
the cartridges and various parts of the
guns might be interchangeable between
the army and navy.
The reDuted defects in the army's new
arms were brought TO the attention of the
authorities at Washington, but those au-
thorities We're 10th to attach importance
TO the reports. being inclined TO believe
the difficulty lay in the fact that the
troops were not used to the guns and
that when they had become familiar with
them the trouble would disappear. The
arms were backed by the acceptance of
a competent board of examiners, and it
needed the strongest kind Of proof to dis
credit that boards conclusions. 1t was,
however. at last determined that the
weapons should be put to a severe test,
and orders to that effect were given.
The tests took place at Fort Sheridan,
near Chicago, recently. For the last test
the rifles were put into the hands of a
squad of the best marksmen in the Fiji
teentn infantry. The Tribune reports that
after fifty rounds had been fired the Of
ficers, headed by Gen. Merritt. Withdrew
and closed the test in disgust. The officers
declined to discuss the results of the
test, but from one Of the marksmen it
was learned that the rifles had been proved
absolutely unreliable in the matter of
accuracy of fire. At short range they
was no telling where the projectiles were
going. In fifty shots at the target only
one center shot was made.
The marksman quoted said further thai
the gun was dangerous to the person US
ing it, that it was defective in mechanical
construction, and that it was liable to get
out Of order at any moment; and when it
got out Of order it was necessary to send
it to a machinist. The mechanism of the
gun is so delicate and so complicated that
particles of dust in its working parts will
put it so badly out of order that it must
go to the machine shop.
1t is understood that the cost of the
new rifles has already amounted to some
thing like 100000. If the arms are as poor
as these stories make them out to be,
they would be worse than useless in the
army. The probabilities are that the war
department will at once take steps to as
certain how much truth there is in the
stories, and to investigate the action which
resulted in the adoption of the arms, if
it shall transpire that they are worthless.
