Senator Elkins's MeasurssNot Likely to BE
Heard of Again - Republican opposi-
ton.
Special TO the Register.
Washington. D. c.. November "a
The St Louis Republican platform in
way Endorsed the scheme of discrimin-
ating duties which is provided for in
the bill introduced last session by Sen
ator Elkins, known as Senate bill NO.
1892. The provisions of this bill are
that there shall be levied a duty of il
per cent. on all free goods, and 10 per
cent. ad valorem on all dutiable goods
imported into this country in vessels of
foreign register These duties are to
be in addition to the duties which are
laid in the regular tariH schedules.
The alleged purpose of this bill IS TO
encourage American shipping, but If
il should pass it would create havoc
with our commerce. The shipping in
terests of the country are almost
wholly arrayed against it, and VIII
male a strong and organized fight
against it's passage this winter as N
the Fifty-fifth Congress. What trou-
bic the bill would create may be gath
cred from the fact that its passage
would work as an abrogation OF al
most all our commercial treaties with
the Central and South American
States. as well as with some OF those OF
Europe. 1t is likely that several OIL
Senator Elkins' Republican colleagues
will be found opposing the bill, IN
GLIDING Senator Sherman, of Ohio. In
a letter to Mr.. Frank S. Gardiner, Sec
re.a1y of the American Shipping Lea
que. written in 1895, Senator Sherman
said: The reason why discriminat-
ing duties cannot be adopted in our
country is because in our treaties with
foreign nations, ! think, without eX-
ception. there is an express stipulation
that no discriminating duties should
be made against the countries with
which we have treaties"
This ought to put an end to the
movement to pass Senator Elkins
bill.

The IRON DUKE.



When engaged on the two pictures.
"The Queen Receiving the Sacrament"
and 1.-The Christening of the Princess
Royal" much Of my fathers time and
money were spent in taking them from
one nobleG2l's house to another to OBJ
tain sittings. but often to find, after
making an appointment with a duke or
. lord, first that he was engaged, and
after waiting for hours that he regretted
not then being able to see Mr. Leslie,
but would be at his service on the fol-
lowing day. The Iron Duke was an ex-
ception, and the day after he received q
note from my father saw awhile hair
ed elderly gentleman walk up the short
gravel path and steep steps of our little
villa, and shading his eyes from the
sun take rapid survey of the front gar
den as he stood on the steps, and how,
when small maidservant answered his
knock and question, "Is this Mr.. Les
iie?" with Eyes, sir. What name,
please?" his reply in a very clear. loud
voice, ''The Dock Of Wellington, near
" made the girl drop where she stood,
and not only brought my father, palette
and brushes in hand, to her rescue, but
many heads out of the upper windows
Of the adjoining villa.
Then, before going indoors, he in
formed my father and all the neighbors
in the same loud tone that the distance
between Apsley House and ours was
''five miles, repeating it more than
once, and when my father ventured to
say, Il think not quite SO much, your
grace, - he closed the argument thus
''Oh, yes, it must be. I'm good judge
of distance, and consider it certainly
over five miles, The duke had come
on horseback, and was much pleased
when told that my father would wait
upon him for a sitting at Apsley House,
but on doing SO he was received by the
duke with, "Well, Mr.. Leslie didn't
you find 1t long way-over five miles,
am sure?''
A few days later my father CHANGED
to mention this to Sir Edwin Landseer,
who knew more of the duke than he
did. Sir Edwin said: ''It is no use to
differ with the duke. once did about
some engravings of my own pictures with
which he was having a room papered,
and ventured to suggest that, as many
of them were valuable proofs, they
might be attached to the wall only by
paste round the edges. SO that at any
future time they could be removed
without injury. But he cut me short at
once with: No. no, that would not do
at all. What do is this: I get man
with pot of strong paste and big
brush, and he pastes them all over the
backs, and up they go at once, with no
more bother about them. Temple

after the chief clerk had been sent for

"No, SIR
"Not open at 10 O'Clock at night,

''No, SIR"
"Should I receive a money order from

ICEBERG PHENOMENA.



Accounted For.
The occurrence Of ice in the Compare
lively low ATTITUDES Of Cape Horn and
the Falkland islands is easily explained.
says The Pail Mall Gazette. The ice has
originally formed part of the great bar
rier which, with very few breaks, sur
rounds the vast antarctic continent, ris-
ing to an average height Of from $50
feet to 200 feet above and sinking from
1. 100 feet to !, 400 feet below the level
of the sea and having. moreover, a
thickness Of something like /, zoo feet
or 1900 feet. 1t is solid perpendicular
wall of ice formed BY the descent over
the lowlands into the sea Of the ice
and SNOW which form on the mountains
inland, and when the forefronts are
pushed into depths of about 300 or 400
fathoms large stretches are broken off
and feat away northweard with the
current. When they start on their AIM
less career, they may be miles in extent.
and though. as a rule, they break I'D by
collision and erosion it is not at all un.
usual to encounter an island miles long
in the neiShborhOod OF the extreme ice
limit.
For instance, the Coldinghame in this
region passed about 200 bergs, one of
which was ten miles long. The Guilty

and distance run that the cast side of

with in the north. By the action Of the
waves they are cut at the waters edge
into coves and caverns Of heavenly
blue color. Then, as they collide or get
melted away ut the base by the action
Of the water, they turn over and show
to the wandering mariner those fantas-
ic shapes which simply beggar all de-

farther north they become smaller and
still more strangely shaped and ulti-
mately melt away.

Nothing Above the Table.

A popular and well known lady OF
central Mississippi visited New Orleans
at the last Mardi Gras for the first
time. She was delighted with the city,
but was considerably shocked at the
'decolleteness" of some of the costumes
at the balls.
One day while here she was enter
tanned at a fashionable dinner, and up
on her return to the house Of the friend
whom she was visiting she was asked
TO describe some of the costumes worn.
What did Mrs. G. wear:" said her
friend
Il didn't look under the table, but
she didn't have on anything above it. y
