CROCHET WORK TILE RAGE.

AT the present moment crochet work
is simply the rage; no matter what
one makes, whether dress trimmings,
finish for underwear, or edgings for
fancy work, the crochet needle is one
of the favorite emploYments of the IN
dustrious young woman. Crochet
shawls are again coming into fashion,
not exactly on the old fashioned lines,
where the shawls dragged into great
holes, and were in short time
stringy and unattractive looking, but
with snug, close stitches SO arranged
that there is durability to them as well
as beauty
There is nothing prettier for q
shoulder wrap than handsome shawl,
crocheted of some not too fine ma
terial. Little shoulder capes, with
ribbon run through, are also much
liked; and there are little scarf
shaped articles to throw over the
head. These are particularly con
venient and agreeable for evening
wear when one desires to take n stroll
either on the porch or in the street.

AHIGH TARIFF APOSTLE.
ADMITS THAT UNDER FREE TRADE
WAGES 60 UP.

professor Thompson, of the Univcr-
sity of Pennsylvania, Tcstifies
That Wages Have Advanced I'm
England, Whilo the Price of
Bread Has Been Cheapened.
The latest Republican to testify that
free trade does, not reduce wages, is
Professor Robert Ellis Thompson of
the University of Pennsylvania. Pro-
fessor Thompson has the bad pre-
eminence of being the foremost pro-
tectionist in America, who lays any
claim to be considered IN economist.
For many years he has been railing
against tine advocates of free trade.
and asserting TINT under low tariff
wages would be reduced.
During tho past summer he has been
travelling through England. and, as is
frequently the case with believers in
the Chinese policy, his experiences
abroad have opened his eyes. Not
wholly rs yet, for in series of lottcrs
to the Philadelphia American he paints
u gloomy picture of British industry,
and predicts that England will soon go
back to the vanished delusions of pro-
lection. He was grieved to find that
the Englishmen only laughed at him
when ho tried to convince them that it
would be wise for them to put heavy
tax on the food of 10000, 600 people,
in order to raise tho rents OF less than
10000 landlords. So he tries to show
that free trade has not benefited Brit.
ish manufacturers, and as proof of his
unfounded assertions says: "Nor
have wages gono down with the cheap.
cning of bread, much as tho free trad
crs desired that result. The trades
unions have been too much for them,
and have forced wages higher, even
while commodities declined in price. +"
Here then is the testimony of high
tariff apostle, that instead of reducing
wages, free trade has chcapened the
bread of tine English people. while
wages have been increased. Tho
statement that free traders wanted
wages cut down is, of course, n
gratuitous falsehood. Apart from
this sneer Professor Thompson's adj
mission rs to the effect of free trade
ON wages is good, sound Democratic
doctrine. Tariff reformers have al
ways claimed that lower duties on i'm
ports would cause decline in the
price of commodities and m advance
IN real wages. This is exactly what
Professor Thompson says has hap
pened in England, and it is what is
now happening in America.
1t Will be noticed that Professor
Thompson credits the trades unions
with the advance in wages in England
But he does not explain why the
unions could not raise wages under
protection, nor why trades unions in
this country could not advance wages
under McKinleyism. The essential
facts are that under free trade the
English workingmen get higher pay,
and buy bread and other commodities
far cheaper than under protection.

A REVIVAL.

One Of the revivnls is the long coat
of cloth with silk lining. This is to
be specially for the coming season,
and its universal use is predicted.
Some of these cloaks have capes, 9TH

standing collars or those that flare
back from the thr oat. The sleeves are
very comfortable, having enormous
arm-holes; indeed, this is one of tho
distinguishing characteristics of the
new long cloaks, arm holes allowing
the garment to be put on over an or
binary dress with the ballooned and
be-puffed sleeves.

Freedom is Trades Best stImulant

The Chicago Chronicle, tho leading
Democratic paper in the Northwest, is
enthusiastic over the SUCCESS of the
Wilson tariff law. In leading edi.
torial on the subject it says, among
other things:
"Wednesday last the Wilson tariff
law had been i'll force just one year.
When it took effect commercial con.
ditions in the United States were more
distressing, moro disastrous than they
ever had been since the time of Black
Friday. After one years operation OF
Democratic legislation there appears

measure, to which the Democracy il

1t is Il significant fact that so much
of the new and revised army regula-

the method Of handling the army

Of what may be called the Debs rebel

In that way. One new regulation calls
for the detail of sharpshoOters to watch

INDIAN FUNDS.

The Board of Indian Commissioners
held their annual meeting III Washing
ton yes d,y, and there was officially
disclosed in lump the action OF the va
rious Indian missionary bodies OF the
churches in declining the usual Govern
ment appropriations made for assisting
them in their work.
Announcement has been made from
time to time of this action on the part
of the churches. II appears that nearly
all the Protestant bodies engaged in the
support of missionary schools and other
methods Of work among the Indians de-
clined to receive the last Government
appropriation apportioned TO them or. re-
ceiying it, returned il to the Govern
ment.
DR. RYDER, for the Congregationalists,
whose sect works among 30 tribes, en-
ploying go missionaries at eight central
stations and 40 missionaries at 26 out
stations, stated that the society last
wear had returned to the Government
the appropriation of S22.0Oe which
in previous years had been made
use of. The Episcopalians had surren-
dered theirs. So had the North Pres
byierians who spent during the year
$lS3, ,S05 in missionary work among the
Indians. SO have the Unitarians and Sc
have other denominations.
The churches complain that the bur-
den is hard to bear with the loss of these
funds, but no solution of the difficulties
thus encountered seems to have been
suggested at the session, so far as the
newspaper reports show, except that 1t
might have been better to have surren-
dered only small amount each year SO
that the societies could have more con-
veniently provided for other resources
rather than making retrenchmants.
This movement on the part OF the
Protestant churches is due to feeling
among them that the Roman Catholic
church has in the past received an un-
duly large share of the Government
funds. There has, accordingly, resulted as
solution of the problem Of properly
and ,qiably apportioning the funds, q
strong sentiment that the churches and
the Government should pursue their re-
sptctive lines of work Independently oi
one another, and that the church work
should no longer seek to depend upon, ol
avail itself of, Government aid.

CREMATION.

The public meeting of the New En-
gland Cremation Society. held in Boston
Tuesday evening. doubtless discovered
the organization 10 good many leople.
The meeting is said to have been well
attended and it was addressed
principally by divines. The annual re-
ports showed that the society was IN a
furnishing condition and that the future
was bright for the cresationists.
From the letters read 10 the
audience 1t is learned that
such eminent thinkers as MARGARET
DELAYD, Professor CHARLES ELIOT NOR
TON. Professor FRANCIS V. CHILD and
Mr.. RICHARD III. DANA. are interested
in the movement, and believe that Gre
nation is the proper solution OF the
future for the disposition OF the dead.
1t appears from the principal address
made by Rev. GEORGE HODGES, dean OF
the Episcopal Theological School at
Cambridge, that during the year there
had been 81 cremations at Forest Hills
crematory and argued that if the In
crease continued as it had progressed
the past seventeen years, cremation
would be the almost universal way OF
disposing Of the dead in fifteen years
from now.
All this is very interesting. The prot
lem of the disposition of the dead Is an
ever-present one. So far as it may be a
sanitary problem, cremation seems to
appeal to intelligent people, Judging
from the character of the men and wo-
men who have been converted to
it, So far as the poetry and
sentiment of the burial are a factor. that
may in time have to be abandoned to
sanitary considerations. And, after all
the poetry and sentiment which are
associated with the little churchyard in
the sparsely settled community seem,
already, not to prevent in so large de-
gree where, for the little churchyard,
is now substituted the great Gene
taries with their elaborate monuments,

TURTLE sOuP AS A DIET.

We regret to learn that the constitu-
ents of the Hon. JOHN BURNS, M. p, of
London, are disposed to be wroth with
him and are even inclined TO inveigh
against him as fraud.
All because he ate turtle soup and
such.
1t will be recalled that Mr.. BURNS
made recent trip through parts Of the
United States. While here he devoted
himself chiefly to abusing American
institutions, but when he departed
ne deposited some very pleasant
and appreciaiive yerbiage on our shores
which wou.I have made DR.. CONAN
DOYLE blush with envy and which in u
measure served TO compensate for much
of his previous unkindness-or, rather,
his unkind previousness.
Now JOHN BURNS is at home again
among his constituents. His constltu-
ents are mostly folk who live OH free
trade wages of infrequent payment and
give up part Of them to the making
of hero of JOHN BURNS and
the supporting of him in the
character of a champion Of the
rights of labor. And the burden of sup
porting IL Dor champion is not light
one. either. Nothing short of million
aires can support labor champions with
out feeling it.
Now, when JOHN BURNS constituents
found out that JOHN BURNS had had
good time in America they began to
inquire into the good time. And they
discovered, so they allege, that while
JOHN BURNS had preached to the masses
of the United States, he had made his
social associations among the classes.
They accuse him If "hobnobbing with
millionaires" over here, which probably
means that he went round with other
labor champions. Moreover, and this
is most serious accusation, they accuse
JOHN BURNS of travelling first class on
the ocean greyhound that took him
back to England, and of indulging in
and specifically, turtle soups.
That JOIN BURNS is not without a
champion and defender, we are glad
to learn. A fellow parliament arian ad-
dressed large audience of the BURNS
constituency on Tuesday night. in
which he explained that JOHN BURNS
was sick, aud first-class passage and
turtle soup were essential to the
continued health of the labor leader.
that the future championship of the
rights OF the down-trodden might
not be imperiled by his taking away.
