THE PROSPECT FOR SILVER IN

Mr.. PRATT AND THE HERALD.

When Mr.. Pratt says that said pre-

lion so fine that none but those famiI-

Mr. Pratt says that The Herald and
its manager knew that each ard all
OF the material allegations in Captain
Donovan's affidavit were false and I'M
true The Herald or its manager did
not know whether the allegations were
false We're true, and published them
as part of the record in the case. which

months. the same as it published the

II A MAN DIE.

Man born of woman is of few days. and
sorrow
The measure of his lot
a flower today, he is cut down tomor-
A shadow-and is not.
Fixed are his troubled y2ars-his months
are numbered
Counted his final breath,
Set are the bounds-his plans and VEN
lures numbered
BY horizon of DEATH
A tree hath hope even in the hour of
That It may live again
It's roots will sprout, new life from moist
earth calling;
Its throat still drink the rain.
Nay, though the roots wax old-the dry
heart perish
Ben tn the earth,
The scent of water sweet will new hopes
cherish,
And buds and boughs break forth
But man dies and as a dead thing
Decays-and where. is he? dt
AS the flood sinking, from the parched
drouth hasteth
Or waters fail the sea.
Man lieth down-the endless slumber TAX
Silent ana soon IOrSOl-
Uatil the stars fan there shall be no
waking
Man dies and rises notl
On, hide me in the grave-my body keep
ing
Until thy wrath be past:
Then at some time wake me from my
long sleeping
Remember me at last!
If a man die, shall he again be living?
Is there a better place?
All my appointed days viii 1 be striving
no look upon thy tace.
Then in the hour of change I'll hear thee
waking
My buried soul and me!
Through wood and clay, from my tired
body breaking
Oh. God. I'll answer thee!

SECTION TWENTY-FIVE.

Section % of the tariff law of 1897
is destined to become famous in the
annals of American legislation. 1t has
been charged, that it was put in the
bill surreptitiously; and there is evil
dence to this effect. s. important is its
bearing on commerce that the cabinet
has taken cognizance of it and Will
hold a meeting to consider it. 1t is
quite likely that the section will either
be greatly modified or repealed when
congress meets.
Senator Frye has undertaken to de-
fend the insertion of the section, claim
ing there was nothing surreptitious
about it. 1t is certain that he at least
knew about it, and how those who were
interested in it were meeting and lay
ing plans to get the section in. A lead
ing Boston paper says truly that if
the senators generally, and even Repub
lican senators, had known that a
scheme of this kind was on foot, it's
success would have been prevented
that is. it would not have been made a
part of the tariff law-because the OPP
position to it would have been so great
that it would have been thrown out as
a contentious subject. through the in
PRODUCTION of which the enactment of
the tariff bill might be delayed. The
work of bringing the subject before con-
gress in a way to secure congressional
approval had to be undetermined and
deceptive, because the promoters of the
scheme clearly understood that ap-
proval could not be obtained If the
method adopted was frank and above
board Senator Frye admits that the
general plan of the unofficial committee
formed to promote It's project was not
accepted by the congressional commit
tee: that in its direct attempts it was
defeated; but it is nonsensical to sup
pose that an underhanded device. which
secured somewhat similar results. and
was made public by the authorization
of those interested Immediately after
the bill became law. was not known
and approved by them when the sub
iect was under conference committee
consideration Senator Frye has been
for years past prominently identified
with efforts 10, directly and indirectly,
subsidize American merchant vessels,
and hence, in this matter, as he admits,
he had a knowledge of the subject
which his associates in the senate did
not share. If the change had been made
with a clear understanding on the part
of majority in congress there would
have been nothing more TO be said.
But this was not the case. The adoption
of the measure in the manner it now
stands was an instance Of sharp prac-
tice, a species of legislation which
/ does not admit of an honest defense.
The possibilities of evil in this sec
ton have been discovered early and can
be headed off. But the possibilities
of evil in the section are not to be
compared with the possibilities of evil
in the method by which it got into the
bill 1t shows carelessness on the part
of the house and senate and trickery
aud chicane on tho part of those who
had the section quietly inserted. The
new tariff bill is teaching the people
more than one lesson.

Kittens Lion Lover.

Last night little. purring kitten rubbed
herself in friendly fashion against the
great iron bars of the den of Old Paul,
the Zoos famed lion, of whom extreme
age has made a pitiable show these many
weeks. says the Cincinnati Enquirer
She WAS the only bit of outside life that
Paul Was ever friendly with. Every night
for weeks kittie has crept shyrly UP in
front of the bars OF her lion lover home,
and when she mewed TO him he came
forward and put his; great shaggy head
as close to her as he could, and they
carressed each other.
Last night when the kittie came, and,
rubbing coaxingly against the bars.
mewed all softly to her jungle lover to
come and say good night. Paul just lay
still. his head between his paws, and
didn't notice her at all. firing of coax
ing him. the faithful kittio stopped and
just looked and looked at the noble, great
fellow. Finally q keeper saw her do
something that instinct never let her do
before: She shyiy creDt through the. big
black iron bars. and going in, caressed the
great, bowed head in her most loving
way. But there was no response. Then
kittle slowly went away, and Paul slept
on the sleep that knows no waking.
Scores of people who mad known the
old lion for nearly 20 years had just been
visiting him. and hosts of tiny children
had tossed him kisses just as death was
coming on. He died exactly as Suoerin-
tendent Stephan said he would, "as IL
asleep with his head between his paws. ;"
