An Odd Trick.

women play odd tricks on one
another sometimes" said a lady of
fashion, sbut the queerest l ever heard
of was perpetrated by one social lead
err in a western city upon another.
They were rivals and hated each other
accordingly, though outwardly they
preserved the semblance of pleas
ant relations Every chance that
either got to give a dig at
the other was eagerly seized. But the
final and most effective stroke, after
which no calls were exchanged, was
delivered by Mrs. L. She sent out
cards for a grand entertainment and
then took pains to find out what
Mrs. f., her competitor, was going to
wear. A gorgeous pink brocaded
satin was the material of Mrs.
F.'s gown, it was ascertained.
Accordingly, Mrs L., whose
husband was in the dry goods busi-
ness. obtained several hundred yards
of the same identical stuff and draped
the walls of all the rooms on the
lower floor of her house with it. You
may imagine the feelings OF Mrs F.
on arriving in her superb new frock,
which she expected to make a sensa-
ton. Naturally she ordered a carriage
ard drove away in tears"

Tariff and Low Prices.

Washington County has been the
chief area Of the wool-growing indus
try in Pennsylvania, and among the
chief areas of the United States. On
Saturday, June Is, 1000 head of sheep
we're shipped from Washington County
to Pittsburg. They averaged so cents
per head in open market. One lot OF
ninety-five Merinos was offered at $50.
Three years ago such sheep were worth
So or $3.50 per head.
This represents a shrinkage OF seven
eighths in the value of the sheep, which
is the raw material" of wool. But
there has been no such decrease in the
price of the manufactured article, as a
visit to any clothing store will testify.

t>st on even terms. The tendency IN
the South. as here, is in the direction
of large plants, where staple goods are
the product. If a man has : taking
speciality, he can do a small paying
business. But the Southern industry
is all staple, and will long remain SO.
for this is and will be their strong
hold.
Now, as for profits. Some of the big
mills are making 20 per cent, and there
is good reason to count on u corpor-
atoms which go South doing as well.
for ten years, and then either the mar
gin of profit becomes as close as 1t is
now in the North, or else some mills
will turn to other classes of work, finer
goods. Here, however, they will be lit
tie better off, for they will then lose
substantially the advantages Of posi-
ton which they now enjoy on coarse
goods.
The idea hat the Southern operative
or the Southern climate will not permit
the making of fine cloth may as we'll be
abandoned. Climatic conditions are
just as much of a factor in this case as
they have been in preventing the trans
ferring of any British industry to
American soil, tin-plate being the last
illustration. AS to the operatives, re-
cent articles in these columns based on
the expert observations of Northern
spinners, are conclusive of the capacity
OF the former to develop the requisite
ability by the time it is required.
At the present time the Southern
mill making coarse goods can in its
immediate vicinity procure the cotton
1t uses, and this saving of freight on
the raw material enables it to lay
down its goods in New York at half a
cent per pound less than the mill on
the Merrimack. AS a cent per pound
profit on the cotton used is considered
a very fair return, it will be seen that
the lead of the Southern mill is con-
siderable. But when it comes to fine
goods, conditions are more uniform.
AS before stated, the site of Southern
cotton spinning must and will be es-
sentially confined to the foothills of the
Appalachian system in the Carolinas,
Georgia and Eastern Alabama.
This places the mills at a considera-
bic distance from Arkansas and other
producers OF the long staple cottons,
which it is necessary to use in the spin
ming of fine yarns. The freights to the
Piedmont region will not be so very
much less than on the through routes
to Northern manufacturing and export
ing points, SO that the Southern mills
cannot deliver their product in New
York with any advantage in the matter
OF transportation cost. Of course, the
Southern spinner will still have what
ever remains to him in the way of cost
of coal and wages, but the many ad-
vantages which the Northern mill-oWn-
er possesses will partially neutraliZe
that until more equality in labor is es-
tablished. We think that our spinners
regard the question of cotton freights as
the most important of those bearing on
the matter of relative advantage as liza
BILE to be the more permanent. For
these reasons we think there will al
ways be business enough to employ
the spindles of Massachusetts, provided
the industry is not discouraged by EN-
barrassing legislation.

INSISTED ON SHAKING AND
The place was suited to such ORR
entail espionage Of the female
members of a family. Possibly the
pr~ecaution was an evidence of his af-
lection and care for his grandchild.
Was he not wise to thus protect her
from the intrusion of ruthless man
kind?
He opened the orange and ate it with
rare enjoyment. The spicy fragrance
of the golden rind, the luscious sweet
ness and richness of flavor of the ripe
pulp, seemed to him refreshing, in
comparable. He had partaken of
strange and tropical fruits in all por-
tions of the world, yet none like this
tiny ball, which had garnered and
transmitted sunshine to it's own uses
in the neglected garden of Jacob Deal
try. In the aromatic scent of the outer
peel he inhaled the perfume of Dolo-
res beauty, and in the musky fruit he
already tasted her caresses.
He flung away the rind. The next
time they met he would surely win
from the pouting, red lips a kiss. He
looked no further in advance on the
path of life than that.

CARRIED UNDER BY A PICKEREL
Desperate Struggle in Lake Ontario Be
tween a Man and a Fish.

Desperate struggle in Lake Ontario Be
tween a Man and a Fish.
Harvey NJ. Selleck, a barber in On
tario, came neal losing his life while
fishing in I%rondequoit bay, near Glen
Edith, last Thursday, says Rochester
Herald. Selleck, in company with
Joseph Randolph of Union Hill, left the
docks at Glen Edith and, rowing a few
rods out into the bay, cast anchor pre-
paratory to fishing. He had nc Il
cast his line than his pole was unex-
pectedly jerked from his grasp and fell
into the bay. He recovered the pole
before it was out of reach and then
the struggle for supremacy began be-
tween man and fish. Selleck hung to
the line and the fish towed the boat
around in a circle as far as the anchor
line would permit. He soon became eX-
hausted and was relieved by Randolph,
who, after several vain efforts to secure
the fish. proceeded on a new line Of
action.
Having drawn the fish, a pickerel,
neal to the boat, he told Selleck to
catch him by the gills. Selleck was
very successful in getting a good grasp
on the fish, but when he had a good
hold he was drawn into the water to
his waist, head downward with his feet
in the air. He was in this dangerous
position when Randolph took hold of
him and helped him to regain his
equilibrium. His grasp on the fish by
this time had become SO firm that he
was unable to release it, as the large
prongs in the mouth and throat of the
fish penetrated the flesh and held him
firmly. Sellecks hand is at present
very badly cut and he will carry the
marks of the adventure for some time
to come. The fish was finally landed
and proved to be the finest catch of
the season. Randolph and Selleck,
from Thursday morning until Friday
noon, caught nineteen pickerel weigh
ing 127 pounds, and used only thirty
minnoWs for bait.

Southern Cotton Mill Profits.

There is reason to believe that the
present are the halcyon days for the
Southern cotton manufacturing indus
try. The majority of the mills at the
South are weak, small and ill-equipped,
and in the struggle which is impend-
ing from the movement of our large
spinners down that way, they will
mostly be driven to the wall during the
next few years. The larger, we'll
equipped mills, can continue the con-

them, a mute gaze eloquent of all I'M

brain of each a trifle giddy, and
caused tumultuous heart throbbings.

Lieut. Curzon turned to him, and in

singular limpness. Then the visitor
repeated his invitation to the opera on
