 Oh, am so glad that you are not six feet tallln
 But why?n asked Du Maurier
 Because fer these many months, , replied Mrs Burnett, who is consider ably below medium height, lyon have simply denied Us the right to live. You have made us feel that woman who is not six feet tall has not the right to exist.

Her Troubles over.

At an early hour this morning @ sad scene took place in Q house of ill fame on East Barraque street. It was nothing less than the death of one of the inmates of the house.
 Around her bedside was the physician, and several women of the house, who did all in their power to relieve her pain; but there were no relatives, no friends and no one to speak encouraging words of a future state or to administer the comforts of religion to the dying woman
 Consumption was the cause of her death. She came to Pine Bluff about two years ago and was known by the name of Lillie Stewart. She was about 30 years old and a blonde
 She died in her sin without mak ing known the names of her parents simply saying that her father was alive and lived in the city of London England. Sue stated that she had two cousins In the United States, but refused to give their names.
 The woman was said to be well educate5, an accomplished musician and was very pfepossesing in ap. .nearance.

OUTRAGEOUS TARIFF,
IT WILL PROHIBIT THE IMPaR TATI0N 0F ALL GLASSES

What Senator Jones, of Arkan sas, Says of the DingIey-
 Aldrich Tariff BIll

WASHINGTON, July IL Asked h1s personal opinion of the Dingley Aldrich tariff bill, Senator fJoues said to the Gosetfe representative:
 @ln the new tariff are so many outrages that it is hard to teli what it's worst features are. Perhaps the woolen schedule may be considered tue worst. The heavy tax on raw wool, with the compensating taxes to the manufacturers, will make the average rate of burden imposed in the schedule enormously high. It will practically prohibit the impor tation of all classes of goods that are made in the United States The erockery and glass schedule are equally obnoxious, bat the bill is filled with gifts to the trusts and manufacturing monopolies. As it came from the House 1t carried the highest average of taxation ever i'm posed. As reported to the Senate from the committee 1t was slightly modified, and in his opening speech Mr. Aldrich said that bill impos- ing excessive burdens was not 10 be thought of. In. the consideration of the measure, however, the Republi- cans systematically abandoned the Senate amendments and took the House rates, and in many instances even raised the rates above those proposed by the House.
