We pay our skilled labor more than other
nations pay. this results in much great
or use Of machinery by us. which great
ly cheapens the aggregate cost OF manu-
facture. All We want Is freedom OF
intercourse with other nations. We need
that they shall have opportunity to sell
their products here. and then they VIII
take our products in return. But they
cannot buy from US unless they are al
lowed TO sell 10 US. Trade must be
reciprocal. II only our markets were
thrown open TO the world, We would soon
find out what we could manu-
facture to advantage. and We should grow
rich in manufacturing those things, and
in leaving alone those in which other
parts Of the world could beat US.

An exchange in the northeast part of

of furious mad steer: John Craigo,

Il good saddle horse by an attack by Il
vicious steer. Craigo and a companion
were driving several head of cattle over
from Hay creek, and were having con-

the breaks between Hay creek and Red

at Craigu, thrusting his horns into the
side of the saddle horse. and pitching
the horse and rider several feet. The
horse was thrown down, and Craigo, OK

FLAGGED A TRAIN WITH A MATCH.
How an Old Railroad Man Saved tho
Lives ut Many Passengers.

How an Old Railroad Man Saved tho
Lives OF Many Passengers.
Martin Troy is an old railroad man,
and was down ut the East Bristol bridge
watching the men at work. When the
4:4S train from Bristol came along the
bridge was noticeably weak. The train
stopped before entirely crossing the
bridge, and the passengers got out and
walked across. At that time the bridge
sank about two feet, the weight Of the
train so EARRING it that all the wooden
piling under it was carried away. Troy
then went down under the bridge
When he saw that the piliug had been
carried away and the bridge had sunk
he hurried UP the bank to flag tho 4 20
train from Hartford, which would ar
rive ut this point about 5 p. III. 1t had
grown quite dark by this time and Troy
had no lantern. But as the train came
along he took matches from his pocket
and lit them for danger signal. and
stopped the train just as the engine was
about to so on the bridge.
His sclf-possession and presence of
mind undoubtedly saved the passenger
train and the lives of those on board.
they tried to induce Troy to 20 to work
with them on the bridge, but he refused
to do so, claiming that the bridge was
likely to go ut any minute.
Troy was on the east end of the bridge
watching the work as it was proceeding
in spite Of his warning. He felt the
first tremblc of the bridge and shouted:
Boys, look out, she's going"' But his
warning came too late. Before they
could leave the bridge the collapse came.

Great Guns in 4 Theater.

There was more noise in the American
theater yesterday afternoon than has
been made in that home of melodranla
at any three performances since its
building.
The Maxim gun used in the battle
scene of 'Burmah" was tried with
blank cartridges, against a Gatling gun
from the factory of the makers.
A crowd of spectators occupied invita-
ton seats in the orchestra, listened to
the staccato din, watched the tongue of
fame that hung Oh the muzzle of the
guns, and then shuddered at the thought
of what the nations of the present day
could do to each others citizens should
trouble reach the fighting point.
The workings of the guns were first
explained by man who read typewrit-
ten statistics. He told how the gases
generated by the first shot from the
Maxim gun compelled the next cart
ridge. i'll Il belt, into place, and how that
process was continued until the end Of
the belt was reached. Then he explained
the Gatling arm, which carries eighty
deadly missiles in magazine that can
be replaced in a second.
Then the Maxim gun went at it. In
eight seconds 15S shots were fired. Per
haps there would have been more, but
for a little hitch on the part of the men
in charge. The Calling gun, with
man ut the crank and another to put in
an extra magazine, belched out 100
flashes in eight seconds.-New York
