naturally resented. a. last a big,
strong crow succeeded in tearing Of a
piece, with which he returned 10 the

down TO the dog, the leading crow dex-

Miss Anna Warren Story, who has many
friends in this city, where she lived for
several years. recently gave recital at
Hartmann Hall. New York city, which
was decidedly successful. She gave selec-
items of varied character. of which the
most important were scenes from Shakes
peare. The press of New York spoke high
ly Of her work, one paper saying that
"entire absence of excessive vehemence.
commonly termed ranting. and the con-
slant display of self-control and refined
taste are among the admirable points of
Miss Story's equipment. A fine sense of
humor and an aptness in dialect she also
possesses. as was evinced in her charming
little selection called An Introduction.
where she spoke English with fascinat-
ing French accent, and in The Retort Dis
courteous. where an Irish brogue is called
for. and in a Scotch poem. Miss Story's
beauty and charming stage presence are
not the least Of her attractions"

much perverseness and refused utterly {

joyed themselves heartily. As the guest
OF the Cramps they were treated rfgt
royalty. Besides the Gridiron Club and I'd

dollars to the Cramps, besides the delay d
completing the vessel. 1t is also probabl
that the delegation from St Paul werl
much disappointed; in fact, there wer1
many hfngs made about the difference bd

cruiser Minneapolis made no mistake btj

never will be up to the times" The gibe
were passed around upon the unfortunat
st. Paulites. but of course more in les

hoodoo which ST. Paul casts over every
thing and the many people who were dis
appointed In not seeing the big ship launch

CONCERNING THE GLASS TRUST.
Mckinley Tariff LAW Mndo 1t Possible
Low Duties Cut Trust Prices.

Low Duties Cut Trust Prices.
Tho blindness of tho average high
protcctionist is shown in nothing more
clearly than i'll his treatment of the
Glass trust. 'That despoilcr of natural
trade conditions continues its impudent
existence, remarks one Of these phi
losophcrs, and then he proceeds to ridi-
culo tho new tariff law because it has
failed to draw the fangs of IN odious
trust
Tho Mckinley bill duty on window
glass WAS from 100 To l25 per cent, and
under that law, with such a margin to
work on, tho trust was formed and in
trenched itself The new law reduced
tho duty to from 90 to 30 per cent, and
the trust just reduced tho prices OH glass
TO the extent of tho reduction in duties.
The new law WASH t able to destroy tho
trust. but it was able to force icdnc-
ton i'll the price of glass to consumers
of abont 40 per cent.
If there had been no Mckinley law.
there would have been no Glass trust.
and If the Mckinley law hadn't been
repealed the price of glass would still
be what 1t was during the existence OF
that law. But the continuance of the
trust has served to show that the duty
on glass Will stand another cut, and
when the opportunity presents itself it
will probably be made. -Kansas CITY
