THE MOON BOTHERED JULIET.

A Small japanese Boy Held 1t and Would
Not Go Avay.
''While in Japan we went to Tokyo
to play Romeo and Juliet, " said Mrs.
Potter recently. 1--WE played from Z
O'Clock in the morning until O'Clock
in the evening, as the manager demand
ed plays that would last all day, and
when I told him that we had none of
sufficient elasticity he replied that when
it was all ended, we would start all over
again. Well, we did. The manager, was
impressed with the necessity of ha wing
a moon, and that Juliet, as near as pos
sible, should always be kept in the
moonlight.
'sWell, the balcony scene arrived, and
there was no moon, but in the midst Of
Romeo's most passionate wooirg, which,
SO far as the light Oh the stage was con-
cerned, might have taken place at mid
day, the moon suddenly appeared. It
was in the form of lantern fixed Oh q
bamboo pole and was swayed before my
face by little Jap who stood beneath
the balcony in full view Of the audience.
The audience didn't seem to mind it in
the least, but it made me very nervous,
and every time Romeo would pour forth
his soul I would calculate, Take away
that MOON But the boy was mindful
Of his instructions, that Juliet was al
ways to be in the moonlight, and dur
ing the rest of the performance every
time came on the stage I was pursued
by that awful moon. Nothing could in
duce the boy to desist, and SO the moon
held full sway. '-Rochester Union and

DOZENS OF DEAD MINERS.

Terrible Colliery Explosion Near Car
diff, Wales.
CARDIFF, Wales, Jan. z9.-A terrible
explosion has taken place in colliery
at Taylorstown, near this place. The
shafts were shattered and the whole
town was shaken by the tremendous
conclusion, causing a scene of wild
excitement. Fifty four coal miners
were below the surface when
the explosion took place and
although several of them have reached
the surface with the dead body of one
of their companions, it is supposed that
nearly all the remainder were killed.
Rescue parties have been hurried to the
scene, but their work is very dangerous
owing to the fact that the pit is on fire.
The after-damp was carried to the
connecting pits from the Tylerstown
pit. Fifteen bodies have been recovered
and AZ miners are now said to be
missing.

FAMous EPtTaPn.

Self Exiled Englishznan.
There afe sone interesting epitaphs il
the old Rraveyards in Poughkeepsie, but
probably none Of them has been 80 wide
y known and admired as that on the
stone which marks the burial place Of
John Taylor in front Of Christ church,
on Academy street. This epitaph has
been widely pub liEhed on both sides Of
the ocean, it is said, and is believed to
have been written by tho English poet
William Roscoe and sent over for his
friend Taylor's gravestone. Yet the
stone lies neglected. and the last three
lines Of the epitaph have been broken
of, probably during the work preceding
the building of the new church. The
epitaph was published in Benson T.
LOSING book on ttVassar College and
It's Founder, and was greatly admired
and frequently quoted by Matthew Vas
sar, Jr., as many of his friends remem-
Der. The inscription and epitaph on the
stone are as follows:

Aged SO years.
Far from his kindred friends and native skies
Here Wondering in the dust poor Taylor lies.
Firm was his mind, and fraught with various
lore
And his mild heart was never cold before.
He lov'd his country, lov'd that spot of earth
Which gave Hampden, Milton, Bradshaw
birth,
But when that country, dead to all but gain,
Bowed her base neck and Rugged the Cypress
Loathing the abject scene he dropped and sigh
Crossed the wild waves and here untimely
died.
Stranger what'er thy country creed or hue
Go and like him the moral path pursue;
Go. and for Freedom every peril brave
And nobly scorn to be or hold slave.
The last line is one that has been par
ticularly admired and frequently quoted,
and it is gone from the stone, which is
broken off just after the fourth line
from the end. That this stone should
have been SO mutilated seems little short
of vandalism. John Taylor is said to
have come to this country about the
same time that the Vassar family came,
shortly after the close of the American
Revolution, and at a time when the
English government was REFRESHING all

repetition in England of the French revo-
luton. He was the uncle of Mr.. Hnds0n
Taylor, and the greatuncle of Mr., Rob-

lor.s was a very prominent man in Eng
land, with many influential friends, one
of whom was the poet Roscoe, who
wrote the epitaph, which, reminds one
very much of some Of Goldsmith's best

j. r. WATKINS,

In the year 1868, Mr.. J. R. Watkins first began
the manufacture of DR.. Wards Liniment. For
years he struggled along with limited means,
striving with all his powers and at times despair
ing of success, but at last established a living,
paying business, and made the name ''Dr. Wards"
household word in thousands of homes. Dur
ing all these long years Of toiling and waiting,
Mr.. Watkins little thought that men could be
found SO lost to every principle of right and
justice as to undertake TO despoil him OF his bus
mess, and themselves to attempt TO harvest the
fruits of his lifelong labors. However, in this
matter, he learned that he was mistaken. In
various parts of the country, sprang up bogus
agents offering medicines said to be DR.. Wards or
''iust as good as Dr.. Ward's," frequently leading
customers into thinking they had the genuine
article. Therefore, in order to protect his busl-
ness and the public from being imposed upon,
Mr.. Watkins Bought from Richard Ward, the
worldwide right to his name as trade
mark for full line of medicines, and caused the
same to be registered in the u. 5. Patent Office

GOOD WOULD COME OF 1T.

Prince Bismarck appears to be confident
that conflict between Great Britain and
Russia and France is imminent, and that
it Will go hard with England. The old
diplomat gathers his conclusions from the
anxiety of Russia to be the dominating in
fuence in India and the purpose of France
to have more to say concerning the inter-
nal affairs of Egypt. At present England
exercises almost the authority of owner
ship over India and Egypt and derives an
enormous revenue from her trade relations
with those countries. With England the
acquisition of foreign lands is for the one
purpose of commercial supremacy that
more trade and traffic highways may be

country whether or not Great Britain is

stockhausen, the celebrated professor of
singing, has produced recently at his school
at Frankfort-on-the-Main work of j. S. Bach
which has hitherto been unknown. 1t is a
cantata for solos and choruses entitled "Caffea
Cantata," and is none other than skit upon
the then recently introduced cafes. Toward
the end OF the seventeenth century the Dutch
fashion of drinking several times day at the
cafe had spread among the Germans, and the
clergy, the doctors and the moralists struggled
In vain against this habit at that time rather

taken with the cafe as the men and had n in

SEWALL'S LEVEL HEAD.

Arthur Sewall, president of the Ameri-
can Merchant Marine Association and
Democratic candidate for Vice President
OF the United States, heartily indorses the
Republican party's proposition to restore
our merchant marine by adopting the
policy of discriminating duties. Mr.. Sew
all is ship-builder and ship-owner and
knows how necessary the Republican
party is to his business interests, but as a
politician with burning desire to hold
office, Mr.. Sewall is ready to let his ship
yard and ships take some chances. But,
then, no doubt he feels that there is not
the ghost of chance of his election, and
hence there is no danger that his shipping
interests will not be amply protected.
MIR. Sewall says, in his capacity as presi-
dent of the American Merchant Marine
Association, that under Democratic rule
the percentage of our commerce carried
in homemade and home-owned ships has
fallen from 80 per cent to less than II per
cent; that of the 5000, 900 tons of ships
carrying our ocean commerce, less than
$780, 900 tons of it is American owned: that
We pay $3.50, 100000 annually to foreign
ships that should be paid TO American
ships; that if the Republican policy is
indorsed by the people $4oo. .OOO, 600 would
be spent in building American ships in
American shipyards, and that with the
Republican merchant marine policy in full
operation we should distribute annually
over $500. 600. 600 to American ships which
we now pay foreigners for carrying our
freight. our mails and our people.
The convention which nominated Mr..
Sewall was too busy with sectionalism to
give any thought to an American mer-
chant marine. California is deeply inter-
ested in this matter, and no doubt the
State would go Republican on that issue
alone, but anyway, thoroughly estab-
lished merchant marine under Govern

WHY PROTECTION 2

The purpose of industria, protection is
threefold: ITO give variety to production.
home market and high wages to labor. I"
1t was demonstrated under protection in
this country that the wages of labor
ranged from two to four times greater
than in any OF the free-trade countries of
Europe, and, as a consequence, American
labor enjoyed more of the comforts of life;
more labor was housed under It's own roof,
and the children OF labor had more social
and educational advantages than the chill
dren of any other labor in the world.
Moreover, because of the advantages
which protection bestows upon labor,
more labor became identified with the
legislative and executive departments OF
the several communities and common
wealths of the Nation than in all the other
countries together. Under protectlon
American labor bought more books and
magazines and sustained more libraries
than the labor of any three countries OF
Europe. Under protection American
labor invented more mechanical devices
for cheapening production than the labor
of Europe in all the ages. Under protec-
ton American labor was IN better circum-
stances IN every way that is conducive to
health, happiness and the Development OF
true manhood than the labor of Europe
ever was in its history.
Until the country had protection there
were no home markets of consequence.
Our chief production was from farms and
forests, and Europe fixed the price. After
protection was established fully 81 per
cent of the countrys products found a
market next door, so to speak. Prior to
the adoption of the policy of protection
people had but vague idea of the re-
sources of the country, but when they
were encouraged to go ahead in the direc-
tion of converting raw material into
finished product surprisingly wide range
of quality and quantity of materials for
mill, factory and shop to work up into
merchantable articles were discovered.
Under protection the wealth of the country
increased at the rate of 81. 500 0o0, 600 q
year. Shall the country return to protec-
ton, or shall it continue as it is and has
been under the Wilson-Gorman free-trade
law9
